Tyga and Kylie breaking up was big news this week but it seems all has been restored after just one day.

Billboard has just released a “10 Greatest Rappers of All Time” list and it has made a lot of people who are actually in the game pretty mad. The list did not even include the likes of 2Pac, Snoop Dogg, and Ice Cube which is pretty insane when you really think about it. Tyga while on Power 106 commented on Billboards list saying that the list may of looked like that if it were 2005. Tyga actually says that he believes Drake should be on the list along with J. Cole. Now this is very surprising because Tyga has always been taking shots at Drake for the longest time now but it seems he knows when someone is great at what they do which we all should respect.

Rick Ross did a new interview with Time magazine in which he talks about his new song “Ghostwriter” on his upcoming album “Black Market”. When asked about both the new album and the track Rick Ross had this to say “It most definitely made it a more personal record, it made it a more—I don’t want to use the word serious, but more a topic-driven record. I had a lot of time to just sit by myself, so I had a lot more things I wanted to address. That’s what I did on this LP. I spoke on different things. One of them goes by the name of ‘Ghostwriter.’ I finally wrote a record telling the way it feels for me to be a ghostwriter, and not only a ghostwriter, but one of the biggest in the rap game. Because of my own personal success I’ve always been able to keep that in the shadows. On this record, I just felt it was so current. It was needed.” Ross has been in the game a long while now so he probably knows what he’s talking about when it comes to this subject.

De La Soul started up a Kickstarter campaign early on in the year and they only had a goal of $110,000 and received $600,000 from the fans. The album is to be titled “And the Anonymous Nobody” and was supposed to drop back in September but that came and went with no date in site. The group has now spoken up and pushed the release back onto April 26^, 2016 and they gave this statement about the delay of the album. “Releasing a record independently has been a real undertaking. In addition to artistic satisfaction, the administrative and executive end had to feel right as well. Side artist clearances and appropriating the best distribution for this project has been just as important. With negotiations complete, we are now working on the plan for our awaited release. Thank you all for your patience.” The first single for the album called “Pain” will be out in February or March so fans have something to be excited about though it is still a little ways off.

Sean Kingston is trying to tell everyone that his last purchase of a luxury watch did not go according to plan. Kingston filed a police report and claimed that he was actually kidnapped after he had met up with a jeweler at about 1:50AM on Tuesday while in a parking lot in downtown L.A. Allegedly he took home a watch worth $225K but only paid $185K up front and had refused to pay the rest because he did not think that the watch was truly worth it. Avianne Jewelers set up a meeting with Sean to exchange the watch for one that is actually worth $185K but when he got in their car they refused to give him a replacement which lead to Sean getting angry. Sean did not leave the car so the jewelers people locked him in drove to a secluded area and through him out. Keep it locked right here for any updates to this situation.
