I Am Kurtis blow, one of the founding fathers of Hip-Hop. Ask Me Anything.

Posted: 16 May 2018 10:36 AM PDT

I am Kurtis Blow, the first rapper to sign with a major record label. I'm known for my own hits like "The Breaks", "Basketball", and "If I Ruled the World," and writing or producing song for the likes of The Fat Boys, Run DMC, Lovebug Starski, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Russell Simmons and Wyclef. I'll be among the hip hop legends at the YO! MTV Raps 30th Anniversary Experience on June 1 at the Barclays Center along with Eric B and Rakim, Fat Joe, KRS-One and more. Ask Me Anything. I'm gonna be around around 2 ET and see how far I get.

Update 3:05 - I actually am headed in to an appointment and got to jet for a bit, but I want to thank all of you for your fun and insightful questions, and for making me feel positive and welcome. Please hit me up on socials or here. God bless.

Houston Police Reportedly Issue Arrest Warrant For 6ix9ine

Posted: 16 May 2018 11:57 AM PDT

Houston Police are reportedly looking to arrest rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine. This is linked to his previous alleged assault of a heckler who was insulting him on camera. 6ix9ine allegedly choked out this heckler

From the article:

During an Ugly God assisted shopping spree, the rapper was apparently accosted by a fan (who some say was on the hunt for clout) who went on to call him such inflammatory terms as "gay ice cream truck" and "walking lolipop." The disrespect seemed to trigger a rage in the young rapper, who reportedly choked out the fan in front of his parents no less.

*Note: if a song has been charting for more than 20 weeks and is below #50, it gets dropped off prematurely.

Notable:

  • Childish Gambino's This Is America debuts at #1

    • His first #1 and top 10 (previous peak Redbone at #12)
    • The 31st overall #1 debut, and third in 2018
    • Fourth #1 in 2018 involving a hip hop artist, out of five #1s
    • Ends Drake's streak of 15 weeks at #1

  • As usual, all of Post Malone's new tracks suffer heavy drops in their second week. Most other songs subsequently have large gains.

    • A comparison of the top track of recent album bombs:

      • The Weeknd Call Out My Name #4->#20
      • Cardi B I Like It #8->#9
      • J. Cole ATM #6->#42
      • Post Malone Better Now #7->#23

  • Travis Scott's Watch ft. Lil Uzi Vert & Kanye West debuts at #16

  • Nicki Minaj's Chun-Li video brings it back up to #19 (▲+31), and Barbie Tingz re-enters at #84

  • Rae Sremmurd fail to chart any new entries with the release of SR3MM, however Powerglide rises to #28 (▲+11)

  • Bhad Bhabie scores another entry with Gucci Flip Flops ft. Lil Yachty at #80

[SHOTS FIRED] Tekashi 6ix9ine accuses Trippie Redd of allegedly sleeping with 13 year old girl

Posted: 14 May 2018 08:32 PM PDT

The accusation

The second shot

There's allegedly a video of the encounter circulating on Instagram, and a phone call where the victim admits to the sexual contact

All in all, pretty crazy development in this long-standing beef

Edit: The girl is allegedly Bhad Bhabie, at least that's what's circulating on IG. Plot twist of the century

Edit: Trippie Redd's response is available in the comments of the second link, he basically said "At a studio lmao" to which 6ix9ine responded "that's where u hit it at"

Edit: Based on some comments made by 6ix9ine on his Instagram Live stream, it can be inferred that Trippie Redd told XXXTentacion he had sex with Bhad Bhabie and when Trippie Redd threw XXXTentacion under the bus, X gave this information to 6ix9ine. So many major names are involved in this beef

Edit: Bhad Bhabie's response

Edit: Another Trippie Redd response

Edit: 6ix9ine and Bhad Bhabie on live right now

Edit: Bhad Bhabie has admitted to making out with Trippie Redd for hours, but hasn't admitted anything else AFAIK

Edit: DBangz weighs in on the beef

Edit: Squidnice responds to being dissed by 6ix9ine on Live. Essentially 6ix9ine kept replaying the video on YouTube of Squidnice getting beat up and dropping his flag

[SHOTS FIRED] Beef between Cardi B and Nya Lee

Posted: 14 May 2018 04:25 PM PDT

Definitely recommend reading the DMs for yourself but in summary, Cardi B and Nya Lee have are beefing heavy right now. Cardi B has accused Nya Lee of being on her dick while also throwing shade, and claims that Nya Lee begged her for features. Nya Lee is seemingly upset that Cardi is tryna cause all this commotion despite claiming she's never been jealous of Cardi's success

Nya Lee also says Cardi B used to give her video editor head so, that's a thing I guess. Nya Lee seems very hurt by the whole situation

Hopefully they take this beef on wax and shit gets interesting
