Lil Uzi Vert having album release event on August 29

Posted: 04 Aug 2017 06:05 PM PDT

https://twitter.com/LUVTheAlbum/status/893613905863462914

Came from www.uziverse.com, which seemingly is an official website

Link to page with information, ctrl+f "album" to find part about album release event

Possibly means the album will officially release September 1, the next Friday after the event, or sometime soon after the event

edit: Uziverse site was posted on his youtube channel so it's definitely legit

Seeking internet justice for a company that jacked our shit

Posted: 04 Aug 2017 06:10 PM PDT

My name is Pat and I run a small hip-hop apparel company that shares my user name. I mention small because we don't have the cash to hire a lawyer to seek any financial compensation, so /r/hhh is our best chance to cause pain to a company that blatantly stole one of the designs I paid a fair amount to have prepared.

Our shirt, released in March - http://www.mymainmanpat.com/limited-edition-hip-hop-t-shirts/save-hip-hop-culture/

Their shirt, apparently released yesterday - https://www.mixunit.com/p/235879-save-the-culture-mens-t-shirt/

At least they had the decency to remove our logo from Smokey's hat.

Now, we have had a few of our shirts ripped off in the past but what makes this one particularly enraging is the organization we partnered with it on. We are splitting the profits 50/50 with an organization called Save The Hip-Hop Culture. They are a non-profit dedicated to educating the youth about hip-hop culture and it's history. I have gotten to know their CEO and he is a special individual and I cannot tell you how proud I have been to be helping support their organization.

These ass-clowns are literally stealing money from kids who want to learn about hip-hop. If you think that is as fucked up as I do I kindly ask you to join me in trolling the shit out of them this weekend.

Email - [sales@mixunit.com](mailto:sales@mixunit.com) Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/mixunit/

Finally, if you have any other suggestions on any other $0 options we can do to get restitution for this it would be appreciated. Thanks for reading folks I needed that vent.

Bandcamp To Donate Today's Profits to Transgender Law Center

Posted: 04 Aug 2017 10:40 AM PDT

https://daily.bandcamp.com/2017/08/03/labels-artists-join-us-in-donating-todays-profits-to-transgender-law-center/

I figure it's worth posting here, as there are a number of labels with good rap artists that are a part of this. No matter what you buy, Bandcamp will donate their share to the Transgender Law Center. Certain labels and artists will donate more as well.

You ever go to a concert alone?

Posted: 04 Aug 2017 09:44 PM PDT

Got tickets to a Lil Yachty concert but all my friends are boring and don't wanna go. They have "responsibilities" whatever that's supposed to mean. Would it be awkward if I went alone
