Everyone should watch Maco’s ig story.

Posted: 09 Mar 2019 09:13 PM PST

This man said some real ass shit, and put a huge insecurity in plain view for everyone to see knowing some assholes are still gonna clown him in the comments. That is really terrible what he's going through and I gained a lot of respect for this man after that, knowing how hard it must be in that industry where you need to act all tough.

Edit: here's a link to a YouTube video that has the full story

Send him some support!!

I found a hip hop song from every country in the world

Posted: 09 Mar 2019 07:41 AM PST

Took me a fuckload of time, should be pretty fun to play around with though.

​

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aijM18O3bS8UTni7RR8Te-6q06x37ex3cm5JslYGmfE/edit?usp=sharing

​

I also made a playlist of my personal favorite songs that I found while completing this list, you can find it here https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDj5uEYHzteIt4drraXSugmMzg552ivV4

​

​

Notes:

​

-There are three countries where I couldn't find any (decent) hip hop from: Andorra, Monaco and the Vatican City [Edit: and Nauru]. Any links to rapping priests would be greatly appreciated!

​

-This is nowhere near a definitive list! I know that I've missed tons of great artists but, unless it is open access and compiled by the public, an exhaustive list was never feasible for one person.

​

-There is no real reasoning to the number of songs per country, I just added as many songs as I vibed with from a country before moving onto the next one. [There is more than one song per country if you scroll right on the spreadsheet]

​

-I understood "country" pretty loosely, adding places like Alaska and Wales since their hip hop scenes seemed sufficiently distinct from their actual country that it was worthy of note. Regrettably, I couldn't do this for all regions and have, for example, left China as one entry despite there being great variety in it's regional hip hop scenes (although, I did try to capture this diversity by compiling artists from all over China).

​

-Since this took a bunch of time and effort, I ask that people don't repost or copy this list without creditting Solomon PM / /u/KingSolonesh. By all means share this shit tho

R. Kelly's former lawyer calls him "guilty as hell," made him take "libido-killing shots" and re-wrote "Ignition" to avoid conviction

Posted: 08 Mar 2019 11:11 AM PST

Kelly's former lawyer, Ed Genson, is retired and basically on his death bed and all out of fucks to give. The Chicago Sun-Times has a really interesting interview with the guy who represented R. Kelly in his 2008 child pornography trial.

In addition to calling his former client "guilty as hell," he details some extreme and surprising measures he took to help keep Kelly "out of trouble for 10 years." Here are some choice excerpts:

"He was guilty as hell!" Genson said. "I don't think he's done anything inappropriate for years. I'll tell you a secret: I had him go to a doctor to get shots, libido-killing shots. That's why he didn't get arrested for anything else."

​

That's why, Genson said, he knew Kelly was attracted to young girls. Because of lyrics Genson kept Kelly from using.

"I was riding in the car, listening to a song and said, 'Are you crazy? This is all I need.' He re-wrote it."

Which song?

"Ignition," Genson said. "It's a song related to a guy driving around in a car with his girlfriend. It was originally a high school instructor in a class teaching people how to drive a car. I changed the words."

Does Ed Genson deserve a song-writing or production credit for "Ignition?"

EDIT: Son of Super-Lawyer weighs in:

Genson's son, Morton Genson, said Friday that he believed his dad wasn't thinking clearly when he gave the interview at his home in Deerfield, Ill.

He said his dad has been "in and out of the hospital" and returned for another stay shortly after the interview a few weeks ago.

"He's on a tremendous amount of medication," Morton told the Daily News Friday when asked about the comments.
