Reports of a shooting at Waka Flocka's studio

Posted: 12 Apr 2019 11:23 AM PDT

Apparently, Flocka wasn't hurt but the details are unclear right now. I will update it as more information becomes available.

https://twitter.com/SeidenWSBTV/status/1116764530263117825

"JUST IN: Atlanta rapper @WakaFlocka forced to dodge barrage of bullets after gunmen opened fire on recording studio, per law enforcement sources. @wsbtv"

https://twitter.com/SeidenWSBTV/status/1116767435879796740

"MORE INFO: When officers arrived at the nw Atlanta recording studio, they were greeted outside by two armed men who told them that their friend had been shot in the right arm, police said. @WakaFlocka wasn't injured. Search continues for gunmen."

Edit: To be clear this happened last week.

https://twitter.com/SeidenWSBTV/status/1116768477782728704

"This all happened earlier this month (April 4) at Zac Recording on 669 Antone St. We stopped by the studio, but an unidentified man told us "no comment"through an intercom."

[ORIGINAL] Rap network analysis in Python - Which rappers collab the most?

Posted: 12 Apr 2019 08:18 AM PDT

Hey all,

I hope this isn't breaking any HHH rules (it got removed yesterday for some reason) - I thought you guys might find this interesting. I scraped thousands of song titles from RapGenius and collected a list of all rapper features.

Here's an example of what I mean:

The A$AP Rocky song 1Train, features six different rappers: (Kendrick Lamar, Action Bronson, Joey Bada$$, Yelawolf, Danny Brown, and Big K.R.I.T.) Six different items – one for each featured artist – get added to the overall features list, with each one noting A$AP Rocky as the original song artist.

(^ Basically, imagine that process repeated 70,000 times.)

Before looking at the final network, here are some important points to note:

1) The relative locations of every artist are only approximate.

2) An artist must have at least 25 scraped song titles for any connections involving that artist to appear.

3) This map makes no distinction between rappers who featured on the song, and rappers "credited" for the song. (That is, J. Cole appearing on a 21 Savage song is treated the same as 21 Savage featuring on a J. Cole song.)

4) No connection is made between two artists who featured on the same song, if neither were credited for the song.

5) Songs must be credited to only one artist on RapGenius. For instance, the song Sunflower is credited to the artist "Post Malone & Swae Lee", rather than just one of the two artists, so it won't be included in the dataset.

Here's a link to the final network map! It's a pretty big image, so I'd recommend opening in a new tab:

Rap networks map

The map does a great job of visualizing different "groups" of rappers who most often work together. Odd Future, Pro Era, and the Wu-Tang Clan (among others) appear to have their own distinct "sections" of the map.

We can also see different styles – or even eras – of rap appear in different areas. The right-hand side of the map includes a lot of 1990s or early 2000s rappers, and most SoundCloud rappers show up farther towards the land. Also, most of the biggest "mainstream" rappers show up towards the center of the map, which I found interesting. DJ Khaled, Lil Wayne, and Rick Ross are the three most "central" rappers of the entire network, and Juicy J, Snoop Dogg and Busta Rhymes all have relatively large data points, which represents the fact that they are most often involved in "paths" between other pairs of rappers.

Hope you guys enjoy! All code is on my Github (@saisenberg) for anyone curious.
