Ain’t No Way a Diss Record That Important Doesn’t See the Light of Day in 2018—Unless It Doesn’t Exist
Allegedly, Drake has a diss record in the can that would ruin Kanye West’s career. At least according to J. Prince. I find that a little bit hard to believe, considering I don’t know what Drake could say about Kanye that would do more damage than he seems to be doing himself. He’s got white…

Trump Believes That Kim and Kanye Are Helping With His Popularity Among African Americans!
President Donald Trump recently welcomed the vapid mosh pit of black-woman body parts that is Kim Kardashian West to the abhorrent sinkhole, aka the White House, to discuss prison reform—which is funny because they were two knowledgeable people short of an actual discussion about prison reform. Together, the reality stars who have successfully parlayed their…

Kanye’s Ye Is a Soundtrack for Gentrifiers
I was once a resident of Yeezus Island, but this spring has compelled me, finally, to put my house on the market. I doubt there will be any buyers, though. Maybe Jonah Hill might be interested, but my optimism has limitations. Anyway, Ye—which I listened to a few times last weekend—is many things. Undercooked. Scattered.…

10 Thoughts About Kanye West’s New Album, Ye
Last night in Wyoming (a four-word sequence I never thought I’d type), in what is probably the most bona fide imagining of “I never thought that hip-hop would take us this far,” Kanye West had a listening session full of celebrities and created the cover art for his remarkably-devoid-of-Trump, eighth solo album, ye. The album…

10 Thoughts About Drake, His Petty and His ‘Duppy Freestyle’ Directed at Pusha T
1. Drake might be THE most bored superrich entertainer of all time. Like, he must literally sit around WAITING for motivation to do something … anything. Only a bored rich person gets that amped up, that quickly, in that fashion. Drake was probably playing himself in chess when he heard “Infrared” and was like, “About…

What’s Beef? Drake Immediately Claps Back on Pusha T and Kanye West in a Most Savage Manner
Drizzy Drake brought all the smoke to Pusha T and Kanye West, getting out a clapback to Pusha’s recently released diss track in record time and also issuing a six-figure invoice to the duo for “promotional assistance” and “career reviving.” Pusha, whose West-produced Daytona dropped on Friday and included the Drake diss track “Infrared,” continues…

Kanye West Paid $85,000 to Use Photo of Whitney Houston’s Drug-Covered Bathroom on Pusha T Album: Report
In today’s news from the sunken place, Kanye West reportedly paid $85,000 to use a photo of Whitney Houston’s drug-covered bathroom as the album art for Pusha T’s latest release. Wait, let’s call this the “How Low You Can Go News From the Sunken Place.” In an interview with Angie Martinez, Pusha T said the…

25 Things I Might Do Tomorrow Other Than Listen to Pusha T’s Kanye West-Produced Album, Daytona
That summer of Kanye is supposed to officially start May 25, which is tomorrow, Friday. Pusha T, aka King Push, formerly of the Clipse and currently GOOD Music’s version of Dylan X5, is slated to drop his seven-track album produced entirely by Kanye West, Daytona, Friday (or maybe at midnight Thursday). And I won’t be…

Snoop, Please Spare Us Your Rage About Trump, Mr. ‘Bitches Ain’t Shit’
Nigga, you? (In Nas’ “Ether” voice.) Ever since Snoop Dogg came forward with some very scathing public words for Kanye West, something has been stuck in my craw. Yes, it’s true, I’m a die-hard Kanye West fan, but this ain’t about him. Fuck him. Truth be told, I used to love Snoop with all my…
