🇭🇹 Rap Fairy Godmother

@LowKeyUHTN "It was the hoes" just became vocal stim of the week

Ok ok my bad

@_UncleMax For THAT album, he absolutely could

I don’t think Fif can sell out a US stadium nowadays. Definitely three nights in a row. Conversely, I don’t think Jay could sell out a world tour the way Fif did for GRODT’s 20th.

Do I know anyone connected to Keisha Lance Bottoms' campaign?

@stevozone4_ We need to go back to gatekeeping tightly.

I get your question but No other genre music relies on the authenticity of the artist to match the music like hip hop. It’s a space all alone. (Country is close but they gatekeep their space tightly)

@BarryHefner Unfortunately the majority of our actual journalism platforms have been replace by gossip blogs/pages. But that's only part of the problem... I can tell you from being a news editor at HipHopDX that, the negative stories are what the fans are clicking on. And clicks pay bills

I have a genuine question for the music community. Which other music genre is constantly being discussed negatively by daily media outlets?

Free Black democrats from the shackles of making positive posts about racist politicians after they die.

@dxnnyphvntxm @BrianZisook That doesn't make it any better, lol.

@BrianZisook all yall sound like some hoes. that nigga always late

This is so disrespectful to your fans. For any artist, if people pay to see you perform, respect their investment, their commitment to you, and their time.

Not bother to ask a single person 1) how to pronounce "Verde" and 2) if natives prefer "Cape" or "Cabo"... and being that the country's official language is NOT English... lol. Anyway...

You know what has been driving me nuts the last few weeks? Hearing all the @cnn @apnews @reuters and @NPR journalists who have very easily adapted to the proper pronunciations of Turkiye and every Ukrainian city we've been mispronouncing since I was a kid...

@_HOV_DID @TheKidSkoob American Gangster

Jay-Z fans ONLY. American Gangster or 4.44?

@TheeJonFields @AngrymanChannel Three shows, sold out in hours. This generation of armchair quarterback ass music execs irk my soul.

@AngrymanChannel he dropped $1500 crates with re-issued vinyl and they are all sold out. hella overpriced letterman jackets and did an absolutely insane collab with the New York Yankees. I'm no Jay Z stan by any stretch but what the fuck are you talking about here?

Jay-Z re-released a whole album and not a single song cracked the Top 10. Let that sit. Owning your masters is smart business, but owning something nobody's checking for is just an expensive shelf. Relevance is earned every cycle — you don't get to re-release your way back into the culture. The man lectures everybody about ownership while the streams say the people moved on. Legacy isn't how much you own. Legacy is whether they still show up when you drop. Catalog without demand is just nostalgia with a price tag. Am I lying?

@laysonkaye93 @Cristal1983 Life Is Good had plenty of bops on it too!

@Cristal1983 I'm getting tired of this narrative of Nas having bad beats. KD- Ultra Black; KD2- Count Me In; KD3- Thun; M1- Joe Black: M2- Motion; M3- Love This Feeling. Taste is subjective but a woman told me It Ain't Hard to Tell was a weak beat cuz u can't dance to it. 🤦🏿

All those albums w Hitboy are meh…the rapping is good but the music has no replay value.

This is BEAUTIFUL

@DrinkSolaPop Haitians never stopped. Get into it! youtu.be/kgnVPlzM77g?is…

Songs in the '70s used to be like 7 minutes. Half the song was just instruments. Vocalists saying nothing and letting the instruments speak. Bring that back please

Knicks fans deserve every ounce of joy they can squeeze into and out of this summer. Your first Mamdani Summer AND your first Summer With A Chip? AND La Marina opening back up for a day in July??? AND THREE HOV SHOWS????? GO.TF.OFF, my heart.

And toast to Busta Rhymes, Ja Rule & Alicia Keys. Q3 royalty checks bout to get a lil extra b bump, lol

@stevozone4_ HEY! Didn't we tell you that you're Haitian AT LEAST til June 24th?? GET IT TOGETHER. I'll see you on Juneteenth for OUR next match

As much as I want Atlanta to be ready for the World Cup, I can’t get personally excited for it and I think that’s because I’m not in love with the sport of Soccer and the USA team isn’t playing here. I can’t build myself to get invested.

the discourse of people saying nobody wants to hear “MC’ing” or “rappers really rapping” is mind boggling to me. because no matter what the soundscape or generation is, we should not be moving further away from the essence of hip hop.

@ElsienotElisee @BIGNOAH256 And it's soooo bad! Like way worse than it was last fall

We’re in a ChatGPT flyer pandemic

@RobMarkman Still see them in Atlanta proper, but way less. I think they might have better luck in the suburbs and more remote parts of GA

Do lightening bugs exist anymore? I can’t tell you the last time I’ve seen one
