Eminem paid a visit to Shade 45‘s “Sway In The Morning” and blessed us all with a new freestyle. Spittin’ acapella on this one, Eminem proved he still has bars, and more bars, and more bars. With lyrics about Cindy Crawford, Jack Gyllenhaal’s new film Southpaw, Foxy Brown, Pam Grier’s tampons, his feud with Azealia Banks, Caitlyn Jenner (no offense though) and a thousand more entertaining and topical subjects, Em killed it (and all from the top of the dome)! “I’m what you’d get if Aaron Hernandez rhymed”, “And fuck Pop, I don’t even like refreshments”, “Fuck talking clear… I’d rather rap like an auctioneer”, it’s impossible to pick out just a few favorite lines. Rapping for 5-minutes straight, Eminem went crazy on this one! Em also added “it’s very rarely personal” and “I just say shit to say it,” so if he went at one of your favorite entertainers, don’t get upset.

Taylor Swift Apologizes to Nicki Minaj Over VMA Feud

Even Taylor Swift isn’t too big to show a little humility and apologize when she thinks she’s wrong. For a couple days, Taylor and Nicki Minaj had a little bit of bad blood when Taylor Swift was under the impression that Nicki’s anger over a MTV Video Music Award snub (for her ‘Anaconda’ video) was aimed at Swift’s way (who was nominated). Although the two both shared how big of a fan they were of the other, there was some clear tension. The Twitter war should be officially over now, as Swift took to Twitter to send an apology to Minaj. “I thought I was being called out. I missed the point, I misunderstood, then misspoke. I’m sorry, Nicki,” tweeted Swift. You can’t blame a girl for defending herself, right (especially when its Swift and the VMAs)?

Ready T-Swift’s apology below.

Simon Rex (Dirt Nasty) just got everyone happy and sad, all in one Instagram post. Minutes ago, the Scary Movie 3 actor/rapper shared photo of Riff Raff and Kimbo Slice that was took behind the scenes from a pilot that Rex, Andy Milonakis and Jody Highroller (Riff) filmed for Cartoon Networks and Adult Swim. The TV pilot was for a Three Loco (Riff, Dirt & Andy’s rap group) show titled “Candy Ranch”, and it was directed by Eric Wareheim (“Tim and Eric”).

While this show, by its cast alone, seems epic, don’t get too excited. Adult Swim did not decide to pick it up for whatever reason. It probably wouldn’t have worked out however, as the hilarious rap trio since broke up. Last September, Milonakis shared a series of tweets aimed at Riff Raff, venting frustration about the Neon Icon pursuing his solo career over Three Loco’s. “Stop signing deals without reading them. Stop acting like ur Beyonce. Start treating people with respect or crash & burn,” Milonakis tweeted to Riff. He continued, tweeting “I don’t want you to do anything for me…it’s what you want us to do for you. @justinbieber has more humble demands.” While we will never get a full season, let’s hope the pilot is eventually released.

Check out a behind the scenes photo from the “Candy Ranch” pilot below.

New Music: Meg Myers – “Lemon Eyes”

Last month, when asked about a record that took her the longest to write, Meg Myers told us about her upcoming track ‘Lemon Eyes’. “‘Lemon Eyes’ took a pretty long time to finish, but that’s because we wrote an idea for it and then kind of pushed it aside,” Myers told us. “We would go back to it every now and then maybe mess with it, but it was a process. I think because it is a little bit out there and a little different from what I do, but every time we would approach it was just like ‘what (will) we do with this?’, but we figured it out!”

Well after a many months of writing, Meg’s track from her forthcoming album Sorry (which comes out this September) is finally here. And you can definitely tell that the many hours in the studio paid off on this one!

Listen to ‘Lemon Eyes below and read our interview with Meg here!

It’s been an interesting year to be a Travis Scott fan; while La Flame has dropped a handful of slappers featuring top-shelf production and features from notable contemporaries such as Young Thug and Future, the repeated delay of his debut record, Rodeo, has found listeners’ impatience at an all time high. Originally scheduled to hit stores in March, the record was pushed back multiple times before Scott finally confirmed a September 4 release date. While #travishive is rightfully buzzing over the confirmation, average listeners might wonder what makes Rodeo worth the wait. Thus, we’ve compiled a list of five reasons why all hip-hop fans should be chomping at the bit to get their ticket to the rodeo. Hit the jump below to get started!

For being dubbed American’s assh*le by half the country, Kanye West is truly an inspiring and open minded person. Today, E! has shared uplifting details about the first time Mr. West met Caitlyn Jenner, which will air on Sunday’s premiere episode of “I Am Cait”.  “I think this is one of the strongest things that have happened in our existence as human beings, that are so controlled by perception,” Kanye told Cait during their first meeting. “You couldn’t have been up against more,” Kanye added. Well that ignorant guy from your high school that doesn’t think Caitlyn Jenner is a hero may not be accepting, but Kanye West sure is.

 

Don’t miss this moment on the premiere of I Am Cait, this Sunday on E!.

If there are two rappers that are hot right now its Chicago’s Vic Mensa and Atlanta’s Future. That’s why we were very excited when Vic dropped a little freestyle over Future’s Dirty Sprite 2 track, ‘F*ck Up Some Commas’. Next, Vic performed for his hometown crowd at the Pitchfork Music Festival in Chicago and did a live cover of Future’s ‘Codeine Crazy’ record. And now to put the icing on the cake, Vic Mensa has dropped an official version to his Future cover, similarly titled ‘Codeine Crazy (Icarus Story)’. The track is fire!

Stream ‘Codeine Crazy (Icarus Story)’ below.
