Kanye West & Tyga Dress Up As Easter Bunnies
Two new bunnies showed up in the Kardashian household today.
The Kardashians decided to host an Easter celebration for the kids today, and the two rappers in the family circle, Kanye West and Tyga, went the extra mile by dressing up in full-body bunny suits. Kim recorded their entrance on her Snapchat, and Ye is the first bunny to enter the room (in a suit that appears to be of slightly higher quality), while Tyga follows behind and hits a few dabs before surprising the kids.
North was a bit frightened at first, but she eventually approached her pops to go in for the hug.
Yung Lean Concert Cancelled Due To Bomb Threat
Swedish rapper Yung Lean was unable to perform in Minneapolis tonight due to a bomb threat.
A Yung Lean concert in Minneapolis was cancelled tonight due to a bomb threat made via social media. The security at the venue, Fine Line Music Cafe, began evacuating the club at around 6:30pm, shortly after ticket holders had begun to file in. Yung Lean was backstage at the time, and he was immediately moved to his tourbus. Police then secured streets in proximity of the venue until about 8pm, when it was confirmed that nothing dangerous was found near the scene.
Yung Lean updated his fans after he was taken to his tourbus and told them he was unsure why the club had been evacuated. Though no evidence of any foul play was discovered, the show was still cancelled by the staff at Fine Line Music Cafe. Yung Lean confirmed the cancellation by writing, "i wanted to play the show but due to the circumstances it won't work."
Katt Williams Explains Why He Fought That 17 Year Old
Katt Williams made headlines again last week when video of him sucker punching a 17 year old and then subsequently getting choked out by that 17 year old went viral on social media. Over the weekend, the 42 year old comedian explained the incident during a set at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
According Williams, trouble started during a soccer game the two were participating in. Katt claims that the kid (who he thought was over 18, due to the fact that he was smoking a cigarette) was “talking shit all game,” which Katt didn’t mind, until Katt started getting suspicious. He then went around the corner of the building with the teen, asking about the kid’s parents and family. The kid continued to get in Williams’ face and no one stepped between the two, and Katt explains at that point, he decided he would have to teach the kid a lesson.
In his own words: “I say to myself let me stand up and let this nigga see that even though we’re the same size, you’re a little boy. I’m a grown ass man. I can hit you with this broken fist and get blood, I just want you to have a bloody mouth so that you can have that lesson later. That’s what happens when you say slick shit to grown ass men because maybe them niggas can’t teach you that, but a nigga that can hit you can is also a nigga that can pull out a gun and blow your motherfucking brains out. Why would you put yourself in that position just because you lost a soccer game?”
While that’s probably a good lesson for the kid to learn, it didn’t have to come from Katt Williams, who lives in general vicinity of the neighborhood in which the video was taken. While the comedian makes the light of the situation, TMZ has reported that Williams’ family is concerned about him and has been trying to get him hospitalized for years. However, Williams thinks his family is just after his money.

Young Thug, Kanye West, & Mystikal Reportedly Have A Song On The Way Called “Digits”
According to Thugger's camp, he, Kanye West, & Mystikal have a collab on the way called "Digits" hopefully off "Slime Season 3."
As we near closer to this Friday’s Slime Season 3 release, new information about an upcoming collab has surfaced ahead of time. Young Thug’s go-to director, Be El Be, practically confirmed the news Monday night that Young Thug, Kanye West, and Mystikal reportedly have a new song on the way called “Digits.” However, it’s unknown if this collab will see life on Friday’s SS3 or on the upcoming studio album HiTunes.
On Monday evening, an associate from Thugger’s camp tweeted out “Young Thug – Digits ft. Kanye West otw” and Be El Be then confirmed the collab by retweeting it with the addition of two words… “And Mystical.” Snippets of the record have surfaced on the ‘net over the last year, and the collab is reportedly being produced by London On Da Track.
If all is true, this wouldn't be Thugger & Kanye's first time working together. The two are coming off their latest collab “Highlights” from Kanye’s The Life Of Pablo album, which earned them a performance on SNL last month.
Mo-G Accuses Drake Of Stealing His Style, Calls Him "Little Forest Hills Creature"
Another former Drake collaborator seems to have turned on him.
Looks like there’s trouble brewing up North. Toronto rapper Mo-G has been laying into Drake and his manager Oliver El-Khatib on Instagram. He’s accusing Drake’s team of all manner of shady behavior, including offering him only $500 for writing credits and jacking swagger and dance moves. Mo-G has uploaded it all to Instagram as evidence, saying he “ain’t afraid to speak the truth in public.”
Mo-G describes his experiences with OVO in the videos below, and also shares screenshots of some messages exchanged between him and Champagne Papi. In the messages, Drake is only asking for a vocal sample, but Mo-G says that their relationship went further, with Drake’s team asking him to help Drake write new flows and hooks, but only offering $500 in return. Mo-G calls Drake’s manager a “culture vulture,” among other things.
Mo-G and his crew Halal Gang have gotten shout outs from Drake before, including on “Summer Sixteen.” One would think Drake might just let this slide into obscurity, but a few hours ago he posted an Instagram picture with lyrics from another OVO artist, simply stating, “the bright lights are supposed to inspire you not fry your brain.”
Do y'all think Mo-G is making stuff up, or is he exposing the 6 God?

Drake & Rihanna Surprise Fan With Cancer In Miami
The Make-A-Wish foundation sent Drake and Rihanna to visit a devoted young fan in Miami.
Last week, as the "Anti" tour hit Miami, Rihannabrought out Drake to perform their smash hit "Work," currently the No. 1 song in the country. During their stop in Miami, the two megastars took the time to visit a young fan of theirs named Megan, who's currently undergoing cancer treatment.
Megan certainly looks elated in her picture with both Drake and Rihanna, though the highlight of the visit, organized by the Make-A-Wish Foundation, was meeting the OVO rapper, for whom her obsession rivals any girl her age. "BEST DAY OF MY LIFE! I MET THE LOML," wrote Megan in the caption of a video post she put on her Instagram, one that has been reshared via a Drake fan account.
Rich Homie Quan Says Young Thug Is Still His Best Friend
Even though Thug dissed him at a recent show, Rich Homie Quan has still got love for his former Rich Gang partner. And he intends to prove it on an upcoming track.
During a recent concert, before dropping "Lifestyle," still the biggest hit to his name, Young Thugshouted, "Hey, fuck Rich Homie!" -- Rich Homie being the other collaborator on the track, taken off their 2014 joint tape Tha Tour: Part 1, which they released as the duo Rich Gang. Since the dissolution of Rich Gang, Thug has seemed to disown his former partner, but Rich Homie Quan, on the other hand, has no interest in contributing to the bad blood, as evidenced in a new track he's planning to release, which he previewed last night on Instagram.
The unreleased track seems to provide Quan's take on the highly scrutinized Rich Gang breakup. "I had to separate myself from Rich Gang," lip syncs Quan as the track plays in the background. "No disrespect to Birdman," he continues. With the next line, Quan confirms that "Thugga Thugga still my BEST FRIEND, BEST FRIEND, BEST FRIEND," perhaps a nod to Thug's big hit off Slime Season. Then again, maybe Quan will drop a "Best Friend" of his own.

Official Vizion Signs Awesome2 Deal
We’ve been hearing a lot of chatter from Official Vizion camp in the early 2016! With summer coming we’ve been hearing a lot of waves from rapper/ceo Z aka Zeus! Were now hearing that they’ve signed another deal 4 months in the making with Awesome 2. Pair of djs that have a large amount of credentials in the hip hop community! With artist like, P diddy, Busta Rhymes, Styles P, and other major names on their resume; this deal promises to be lucrative for Z’s camp.
Are Quavo & Rick Ross’ Ex-Fiance, Lira Galore, Dating?
According to rumors, Migos rapper Quavo & Rick Ross' ex, Lira Galore, are reportedly dating.
Rumors have been swirling online today that Rick Ross’ ex-fiance, Lira Galore, has a new man in her life and it’s reportedly Migos rapper Quavo.
According to TheShadeRoom, Quavo & Lira Galore were spotted together hanging out in the VIP of a club in North Carolina recently. While the video captured (below) doesn’t provide much proof of an exclusive relationship, reports are claiming the two are indeed an item.
Galore, who just ended her engagement with MMG’s Rick Ross, had rumors circulating back in November that she had cheated on Rozay with another rapper, causing their first initial break up. She later denied those allegations, but it’s now looking like that may have been Quavo, if true.

Afeni Shakur's Husband Wants Part Of The Tupac Estate For Alimony
Afeni Shakur does not want her soon to be ex-husband to get any alimony from the Tupac Estate.
Part of Tupac Shakur’s estate may end up as part of a divorce settlement, as Tupac Shakur’s mother Afeni Shakur is currently embroiled in a divorce with her husband Gust Davis. They have been married for 12 years but have been living apart for over a year.
TMZ reported details of the suit, including exactly how much the family makes and what Davis wants in the divorce. The Tupac Estate currently brings in roughly $900,000 a year, but after expenses & taxes that number is more like $20,000. Davis wants half of that monthly total for the rest of his life, as well as possession of his Jaguar and a 50 acre North Carolina ranch that the two purchased when they were still on good terms.
It’s up to a judge to decide how the assets will be divided, but Afeni has filed to block the alimony request. However, for some reason the couple didn’t sign a prenup before they got married, which is not good news for Afeni Shakur. Just goes to show, you don’t have to be female to be a gold digger.
Tory Lanez & Jacquees Have Squashed Their Beef
Tory Lanez and Jacquees met up at South By Southwest.
South By Southwest can really do everything. In addition to providing dope performances for fans, it can also be a means for reconciliation. Back in late February, Tory Lanez and Jacquees fell into a brief Twitter beef that was started when Tory Lanez responded flippantly to a post from the new Cash Money signee. Lanez wasn’t having it when Jacquees declared that he was coming for every R&B artist not named Chris Brown, and Jacquees ended up calling the Toronto singer a “watermelon head ass,” among other things.
Fast forward to SXSW, where the two linked up and appear to have squashed any ill will that may have stemmed from their spate on Twitter. Jacquees posted a photo of the two together at SXSW, and although he called Tory Lanez a watermelon head again, it appears to have been in good fun this time. The two are on to bigger things, as they should be, and hopefully we’ll hear a collaboration between the two talented artists soon.
Young Thug Reveals Release Date For "Slime Season 3"
Young Thug's does another unique marketing approach to announce the release date for "Slime Season 3."
It looks like Young Thug has taken another unique approach for his latest news announcement. A couple weeks ago, Thugger was seen riding around the streets of ATL on horse in support of his upcoming "Hy!£UN35" tour, and now on Friday he did another off-the-wall marketing strategy to promote his upcoming Slime Season 3 project.
While down in Austin, Texas for this year’s SXSW Festival, Thugger decided to spray paint a black casket with the SS3 release date, logos, and his YSL apparel line all over it, and have it walk in a funeral procession down Austin’s busy 6th street while being led by a marching band. As expected, the marketing ploy worked, and many bystanders/fans were able to capture pictures of it on social media.
As for the Slime Season 3 release date, fans will be happy to hear that it arrives next week, March 25!

Z Rejects Google Play Deal & Signs another deal
We had received word that the Official Vizion camp was making power moves by signing deals with companies like “Freemantle”, but now weve gotten word that rapper/ceo of Official Vizion has denied a deal with google play reported to be worth 500,000-2,000,000! Definitely a large sum of money compared to a normal income! We’re receiving word that Z turned down the deal because he felt that “Official Vizion” could make more money outside of the deal and it would be restricting for the labels growth! Stay tuned for more information on rapper Z aka Zeus!
Iggy Azalea Admits She Had A "Psychotic Breakdown" Last Year
Iggy Azalea reveals that the media's negative portrayal of her led to a "psychotic breakdown."
No one in hip-hop (if you think she belongs in that category, that is) had a tougher 2015 than Iggy Azalea. She was at the center of a far-reaching debate on cultural appropriation in the genre, and most all of her efforts to defend herself ended up backfiring. Heck, even Macklemore clowned her on a song titled "White Privilege II." She only released two tracks all year, including a Britney Spears collaboration, "Pretty Girls," and even that was accused of being a total ripoff of DJ Mustard's sound.
Iggy's now back to revamping her image, as she is the cover star of the latest issue of the London-based fashion magazine Schön!, for which she posed topless (see above). In her feature profile, she seems focused on her upcoming album, Digital Distortion, though she revealed that all the drama she was involved in last year had damaging effects on her mental state, even leading to a "psychotic breakdown," which was why she had to cancel her entire "Great Escape" tour.
"I had to have a psychotic breakdown last year," said the Australian rapper. "I felt tired and stressed out." She also admits that the media played a significant role in leading to her breakdown: "Last year, I felt like I was definitely not in control of the media's narrative of me."

Duke Was In The Studio With YG, Young Thug & Nipsey Hussle Last Night
Lil Duke was cooking something up last night with Young Thug, Nipsey Hussle and YG.
Now this is a dope collaboration in the making. Last night Lil Duke posted a picture to Instagram showing himself, YG, Young Thug and Nipsey Hussle together in the studio last night. As expected, double cups were in full effect.
No word on what the four artists were collaborating on, but Duke captioned the posts on Twitter and Instagram “ITS GONE BE A HOT SUMMER & WINTER.” Sounds like they’ve made more than one banger based from that recording session, but we’ll have to wait and see.
YG is currently working on his follow up to My Krazy Life, while Thugger is gearing up for his much-delayed album Hy!£UN35. Lil Duke has been putting out a lot of music as well, so it seems most likely this is something that will appear on a project of his. Of course, Lyor Cohen could throw a wrench in the whole process, as he may have done earlier today with statements that he would “bury” Slime Season 3.
Amber Rose Lets Her Nipple Go Free
Amber Rose finally frees the nipple, albeit with some minor resistance from Instagram.
Amber Rose is proud of her body, and she won't let conservative notions of how a female should present herself stop her from showing it off. Even she, however, has been hesitant to reveal two small regions on her voluptuous bosom, and those would be the nipples and their surrounding areolae, one per breast, for those unfamiliar.
We all have them, and Amber decided to free one of hers today in a picture taken by professional photographer Solmaz Saberi. Amber posted the picture, in which one of her breasts is covered by her white fur coat and the other is left wholly exposed, to her Twitter and Instagram accounts simultaneously.
It seems that Twitter has adopted a more progressive stance regarding which parts of the female body the platform is able to reveal than that of Instagram, which has remained stringent on its no-nipple policy. Still, the photo left on Amber's Instagram, which you can see below, doesn't leave much to the imagination, as she has obscured about 80% of the nipple in question with markings that match the photo's all-white background.

Kendrick Lamar Calls Lil Wayne "The Greatest"; Weezy Responds
Kendrick Lamar says Lil Wayne is one of his biggest style influences.
Kendrick Lamar recently sat down with The Coveteur while out in Manchester, England for an in-depth interview about his new deal with Reebok, fashion, style, and how the youth are shaping the culture. But it was his comments about Lil Wayne, that not only caught the internet’s attention, but the YMCMB boss man himself.
It all started when K Dot named Lil Wayne as one of his biggest style influences, before adding that he was “the greatest,” not just musically, but for what he’s down for the culture. K Dot can be quoted,
“Yeah, man, we was heavy. That’s a real story like, we was just huge, still to this day, huge Lil Wayne fans. Lil Wayne is the greatest. Not only because of his music but also because of the culture he put behind it. It was a big part of what he was talking about, so we always hold Lil Wayne in high regards. Juvenile as well. And yeah, it’s the impact of them man. To be a part of it the same way he was a part of it years later is just a great feeling.”
Not long after the interview had been published, Weezy caught wind of the compliment and took to twitter to acknowledge K Dot. Tune simply stated “Kendrick Lamar a real one #Respek."
Read Kendrick’s full interview here, and peep Tunechi’s tweet below. Who would like to see these two do another collab?
Mariah Carey Announces New Docu-Series On E! Network
Mariah Carey will be taking her talents to the small screen on E! network.
It looks like Mariah Carey is taking her talents to the small screen. On Tuesday, E! network announced that Mariah has an upcoming 8 part docu-series on the way called "Mariah’s World." The show will reportedly give fans a closer look into Mariah’s personal life, including motherhood, her career, tour life, and relationship with fiance billionaire James Packer.
”I refuse to call it a reality show,” she said to the NY Times. “I thought it would be a good opportunity to kind of, like, show my personality and who I am, even though I feel like my real fans have an idea of who I am,” she explained. “A lot of people have misperceptions about this and that.”
With filming beginning two weeks ago, the show is being produced by Bunim/Murray Productions, the same group behind “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” “I Am Cait” and “The Real World.” Jeff Jenkins, executive vice president for programming and development at Bunim/Murray, said that “Mariah’s World” would be shot differently from the company’s other shows
Kanye West Updates “Wolves” Featuring Vic Mensa & Sia
Kanye West releases the updated version of "Wolves" featuring Vic Mensa & Sia.
Staying true to his word, Kanye West just released a new updated version of “Wolves” tonight on TIDAL featuring Vic Mensa & Sia, who were on the original version we first heard at the Yeezy 2 fashion show.
The Frank Ocean outro has now been added as a separate track entirely on The Life Of Pablo simply dubbed “Frank’s Track.” As for the highly anticipated Drake version we’re still waiting for, that’s anyones guess, but lets hope it’ll still sees the light of day someday.
For what it's worth, "Wolves" isn't the first record to be re-worked on either. Just the other day, Kanye fixed "Famous" on Tidal, switching up a couple lines and vocals from Rihanna.

Hudson Mohawke Threatens To Leak Kanye West & Drake Songs
Hudson Mohawke takes aim at Kanye West in a recent twitter rant.
Hudson Mohawke has been a more behind-the-scenes figure when it comes to G.O.O.D. Music releases, but one would still assume he's getting his due credit (and pay), even if he's not releasing music front-and-center of the label.
Last night the producer unexpectedly put G.O.O.D.'s label head, Kanye West, on blast, for allegedly not getting credit for some of his work. The most inflammatory tweet has since been deleted, but a screenshot remains (below), where HudMo says, "Literally about to release a zip of Kanye and Drake songs I've done that I got 0 for"-- it remains unclear if he means "0" dollars or "0" credit.
From there, Hudson vented about the industry in general, and it seems, elicited a subtweet response from another producer Kanye has worked with, Mike Dean.

Meek Mill & Chief Keef Are Looking To Face Off In Grand Theft Auto V
Meek Mill has found a good way to spend time under house arrest.
As of now, Meek Mill is not allowed to record music while serving his 3 month house arrest, so he's settled for the next best thing-- playing video games with fellow rappers.
Meek jokingly taunted Chief Keef on Instagram earlier today, throwing up a screencap of his Grand Theft Auto V squad with the suggestion that he's coming to look for the rapper, who's known to be a big fan of the game.
It didn't take Sosa long to respond, warning Meek that he shouldn't try him on GTA V "No u aint dont do it meek! We'll fuck yo whole everything up," he said, accompanied by a good helping of cry-laugh emojis.
Keef then went on to post a collection of screencaps from his side, claiming he's on the lookout for Meek and his crew. So far, they don't seem to have met up, but we will definitely keep you posted if a face-off ensues.
Meanbwhile, OG Maco has also expressed interest in joining in on this battle on Twitter.
