eatinghiphop:
Wale comes to his MMG boss’ defense when discussing the recent attempt on Rick Ross’ life.
Everyone has their own opinion on Rick Ross’ recent drive-by shooting, and although we’ve heard much from the media on the situation, we haven’t heard from Rick Ross’ closest friends, his MMG members. Wale recently spoke out on the situation, and how it’s being perceived by the media.

Review of Epik High's "99"
This is a purely “aesthetic” album review, and unfortunately I can’t comment on lyrics until translations come out, but I trust the group enough that I don’t really have to worry about that.
[[MORE]]

Apologies for my posts only relating to this one Korean rap group, but they are my favorite artists, so I have to show them a lot of love.
Their 7th studio album— the first as Epik High in 3 years— “99” was released a few hours ago, and it’s already received positive reception on various Korean sites.
I’ve listened through it many times and have reviewed each...

愛だ。: Hipsters and Bandwagoners be cryin' →
fuuko4869:
I’m rather alarmed that there are still many people whining about Epik High’s involvement with YG. Are these people legit High Skools who are concerned for Epik High’s wellbeing and freedom, or are they people who decided to be a fan of Epik High to boost their social status?

Alright, I’m about to go off about this but it’s just from my p.o.v, I...

Interesting article on Female Hip Hop Artists
I came across this article a few days ago, and have found it to be really helpful in finding new artists. It’s called: “Seven Female Rappers who aren’t Nicki Minaj or Kreashawn.”
Out of this list, the only ones I had already known were Jean Grae (one of my favorites), Iggy Azelea, and Azealia Banks.
My personal favorites from the list were Boog Brown, Eternia, and...
