Soulja Boy Tells Lil Uzi Vert He Was The First Person To Own A Planet

by

According to Elon Musk’s girlfriend Grimes, rapper Lil Uzi Vert is about to become the first human to legally own a planet. The Eternal Atake superstar is allegedly planning to purchase a giant gas exoplanet that’s larger than Jupiter. It’s unclear who he’s buying the planet from, or if the planet’s inhabitants are aware that an American rapper will soon own their land.

Despite Lil Uzi making this historic announcement on Thursday, it seems he’s not actually the first person to legally own a planet. Did you forget about SouljaWorld? That’s right — none other than Soulja Boy, the man who was the first to do absolutely everything, claims to have been the first to buy a planet.

“Lil Uzi, you late. N***a, I been had my own planet,” said Big Draco on his live stream on Thursday. “You ain’t never heard of SouljaWorld? Lil Uzi, you late. I been had my own planet a long time ago. N***a, cut it out. Cut it out, like you was the first rapper to have your own planet. Stop it, n***a, why you cappin’ like that? Elon Musk, I been had my own planet, n***a.”

There you have it… it turns out Lil Uzi isn’t the first rapper to own a planet. What will Soulja Boy claim next?

Young Dolph, Key Glock & Snupe Bandz Drop “Blu Boyz”

by

Young Dolph recently announced his new album Paper Route Illuminati, confirming it to be a compilation effort featuring his Paper Route Empire roster. Now, Dolph has kicked things off with a new single “Blu Boyz,” enlisting his longtime collaborator Key Glock and Snupe Bandz for the assist. 

As you might have guessed, the track is a hard-hitting banger, the exact sort of instrumental over which Dolph tends to shine. His deep baritone cadence remains among rap’s most commanding, and he quickly puts in work as he fires off flexes. The energy is met by his collaborators, who keep the momentum moving with a healthy dose of luxurious gangsta rap. It’s likely that “Blu Boyz” will set the tone for Paper Route Illuminati when it drops on July 30th.

Check this one out now, and sound off if you’re excited for Dolph’s next endeavor. 

QUOTABLE LYRICS

Paper Route Frank, that’s me
Paper Route the gang, that’s we
Ugly black-ass n***a but my bank account on fleek
Baby come let a rich n***a beat

Lil Nas X Speaks On “INDUSTRY BABY” & Being An Outlier Compared To Travis Scott & Future

by

There’s a sense of togetherness in hip-hop, with artists including Travis Scott, Future, Young Thug, Gunna, and others all collaborating often and contributing to each other’s respective albums. On the other end of the scale though, Lil Nas X seems to be more of an outlier to that trend. Many of his recent singles, including the #1 hit “MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name),” have been solo smashes. Aside from his latest record “INDUSTRY BABY” featuring Jack Harlow, Lil Nas has been somewhat of a lone wolf as of late, but he’s seeing that as more of a blessing.

Speaking with Zane Lowe for New Music Daily on Apple Music about his new song and video “INDUSTRY BABY,” Lil Nas offered an update on his upcoming debut album and spoke about collaborating with Jack Harlow, as well as being an outlier in music.

“I love Jack Harlow. I feel like he’s one of those people that I can see like truly appreciating what they’re creating and where they want to go,” said the pop star about his new record. “I love people that have these aspirations for a much bigger place than where they already are, you know? I feel like he’s very much kind of in a situation right now where I feel like I was at a point where like… you know, like he’s already had like a huge moment and more light ahead and I just want to help give him that boost. That’s what I’m hoping this is for him.”

On being an outlier, Lil Nas said, “I feel like I didn’t really grasp that until last year and this year, you know? Because at first I was very much wanting to be with my peers, like you know how Travis Scott and Young Thug and Gunna, they’re all always on each other’s albums and Future and whatnot, but it’s just like I’m in my own place for my own reason. And that gives me more room to step out of my comfort zone.”

As for his upcoming album, he said it’s finished but not coming right away. “I’m pretty much finished with the album. But you know, secretly, as we were just talking about moments and whatnot, I pushed the album back from where I was originally going to drop it because of that fact that I want to give these singles some more time to breathe before I drop music videos for songs that already been out for a long time or whatnot. But yeah, I’m really in a great space. I’m in a happy place. I’m in a super creative place. Really just going with the flow, making the best out of any situation that’s thrown at me right now.”

The Kid Laroi, Polo G, & Stunna Gambino Team Up On Emotional “Not Sober”

by

It wasn’t too long ago that The Kid LAROI and Polo G were new kids on the block in the rap game, finding their own lane with mentoring from the likes of Juice WRLD. However, the two artists are now the music industry and radio’s favorite young stars. With the help of LAROI’s friend and New York up-and-comer Stunna Gambino, the duo prove their dominance over the melodic rap sound will remain on the heartfelt and mellow “Not Sober”.

“Not Sober” finds 17-year-old LAROI struggling with the same issues that have lined the lyrics of his Fuck Love EP trilogy— relationships, loss, and haters. Over an elegant piano beat, LAROI seems to channel his late mentor’s coping mechanisms with a powerful hook, “Okay, hold up, baby, roll one
Can we light it?/ Can we smoke one? Can we pour up?/ Mix the Hennessy with the cola/ I feel better when I’m not sober.”

Polo G flows in effortlessly as he describes the pain he carries from his experience with gun violence and a tumultuous rise to the top. The beat’s simple piano and drum pattern, sounds similar to beats on a number of Polo G tracks, so he seems like a perfect placement on the song. 

Stunna Gambino also adds significantly to the track as he wraps up the backend of the song. The young New York rapper’s high-pitched voice seems halfway between Laroi’s and fellow New Yorker A Boogie, making for not only a well fitting feature but a great way for Gambino to to reach new fans. 

Check out the track below.

Quotable Lyrics:

They tryna bring me down, gotta stay focused
When I get sad, I get the Hennessy and pour up
Fuck dirty Sprite, I get the liquor and the cola
And fuck my ex bitch, she did me dirty, I got no trust

Kanye West Called Out Over $65 Snacks At “DONDA” Event

by

Kanye West didn’t make a billion dollars by selling $2 waters and $3 snacks at his concerts. He’s always been a hustler, pricing his merch at high ranges because he knows people will spend their hard-earned dollars on him. While that’s all good and well (as long as the full YEEZY x GAP collection releases soon), his snack bar prices from the DONDA event last night were seriously something else.

As the internet was going crazy over JAY-Z’s feature on the album, Kim Kardashian’s arrival at the event, and more, reactions started pouring in from inside the Mercedes-Benz Stadium where people were asked to pay disturbing prices to fill their bellies. According to Van Lathan and others, the stadium was charging an insane price for snacks, including brownies and cookies at FORTY-FIVE DOLLARS (!!!!) and chicken tenders at FIFTY DOLLARS.

It’s pretty difficult to justify why anybody would pay so much money to get a simple plate of food, but Kanye was really out here charging people $50 for chicken tenders, $45 for cookies and brownies, $35 for sweet and salty kettle corn, and an assorted snack basket for $65.

Van Lathan posted the menu to his page, laughing about the prices as people complained in the comments. As one person wrote, “This. Is. So. Kanye.” You got that right.

Logic Keeps The Tracks Coming With “Call Me”

by

It’s easy to assume that Logic is steadily rolling out a new album, but at this rate, he’s already released a handful of possible inclusions. Perhaps he’s taking a page out of his pal Joyner Lucas’ playbook, deconstructing his new project’s tracklist before dropping it off in its entirety. Either way, it’s a fruitful time to be a Bobby Tarantino fan, especially if you’re invested in his emotional well-being.

The family man has never sounded happier, and though his new releases have explored some unconventional sonic territory, there’s a notable sense of artistic freedom that cannot be denied. The same applies to his latest drop “Call Me,” a smooth glimpse at Logic back in his reflective bag. “Addiction’s like a mud bath without a bar of soap,” he raps, addressing themes he holds close to heart. “In other words, it’s impossible to stay clean / For people like us bein’ happy is just a daydream.” 

Check out “Call Me” now, and sound off if you’re excited to see a new album from Logic.
