Drake Asks Kai Cenat How To Beat Minecraft During Livestream With IShowSpeed
Earlier in the week, internet sensations Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed joined forces to play Minecraft on one of its most difficult settings: hardcore. On Tuesday (Aug. 20) night, the New York native got a message from Drake, who was understandably confused about the video game’s purpose.
SOURCE SPORTS: Yankees Bring Back Jazz Chisholm Jr. After 10-Day Minimum On IL
Not even two weeks after being placed on the Yankees’ IL for a sprained left elbow, new recruit third baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. is ready to get back to action for the Yanks after being activated from the injured list today(August 23).
The clear the spot on the roster, the Bombers optioned SS/3B Oswald Peraza after the 6-0 shutout over the Cleveland Guardians.
The Nassau, Bahamas native injured his elbow in a head-first slide into home plate against the Chicago White Sox on August 12, but held his own at the plate before the injury, slashing .316/.361/.702 in his first 14 games with the Yankees. Chisholm set a record in the Bronx, hitting seven HRs in his first 12 games since being acquired in a trade with Miami back in July after the All Star break.
Chisholm and the Yankees have the best record in the American League(75-53), with Baltimore just 1.5 GB going into the BX Bombers series against the Colorado Rockies this weekend.

Drake Fires Back At Rappers Who Dissed Him On New Song “No Face”
Drake is keeping it moving. The dust has barely settled on the rapper’s “100 GIGS” release, and now we have three new songs. A lot of the attention will go to “Supersoak,” the anticipated Lil Yachty leak that no longer features Lil Yachty. That said, “No Face” has the most fascinating bars. Drake and Playboi Carti go back and forth on a hard rage beat. Carti does his thing, per usual. Drake, however, takes the time to call out the rappers who dissed him in 2024. It’s a long list, and the Toronto superstar decides to side swipe them all with a couple lines.
We’ve heard Drake go the detailed route. “Push Ups” and “Family Matters” were instances of him dissing each of his enemies specifically. He found time to poke fun at The Weeknd, Rick Ross, A$AP Rocky, and of course, Kendrick Lamar. “No Face” opts for a different approach. The 6 God decides to go vague with it, and hint at what’s to come. “I’m just so happy,” he raps. “That n**gas who envied and held that sh*t in got to finally show it.” The second line, though, is more ominous. “I’m over the moon, yeah, we’ll see you boys soon,” Drake adds. This isn’t the only time on “No Face” the 6 God decides to address what went down between him and the rest of the rap game.

Drake Tells His Enemies That He’ll See Them “Soon”
Much has been made about Drake’s diminishing ability to make hits. The “Drake stimulus package” that ran R&B and hip hop for over a decade has been labeled obsolete. The rapper doesn’t much care for that take. He reminds everyone that he helped people like Ross, Rocky, and The Weeknd blow up. “This is the sh*t that my daddy had raised me on. N**gas got lit off the features I skated on,” he spits. “I gotta know, I gotta know. How you get lit off the n**ga you hatin’ on?” Drake is planning something big, and the bulk of his verse at the something without every revealing what it is.
The rest of Drake’s first verse bears this out. He even makes reference to the advice that people like OVO 40 have been giving him behind closed doors. “40 keep sayin’ it’s time to be patient,” he explains. “It’s so many people we turnin’ the tables on. Capo got plans, but we’ll save that for later on. Hush’ll keep sayin’ they know that they played it wrong.” The 6 God is definitely back on his subliminal game. We’re curious and excited to see where the rest of Drake’s 2024 goes.

Drake Surprise Drops Three New Songs On Instagram
Drake is back. He wasn’t gone that long, but still. The Toronto rapper surprised fans everywhere by dropping three new songs on his Instagram burner account. The songs include the unreleased collab with Playboi Carti, “No Face” and “Circadian Rhythm.” The latter is billed as a sequel to the rapper’s 2013 song “The Language.” The biggest revelation, though, is that Drake finally put out a CDQ version of the highly anticipated song “Supersoak (SOD).” We knew it was coming, we just didn’t realize it was going to be this soon.
Drake previously linked up with Playboi Carti on “Pain 1993.” The vibe for “No Face” is a lot more angry and aggressive than their first collab, though. It definitely sounds more like a Playboi Carti song that just has a Drake feature tacked onto it. Whether that’s a good thing or a bad thing depends on how you feel about Carti. “Circadian Rhythm” is going to get the least attention, due to it having no feature or drama attached to it. That being said, it might just be the best song of the batch here. “Circadian Rhythm” has a great groove to it, and feels the most like a throwback Drake song. You’ll be able to tell why he made it a sequel to “The Language.”

Drake Officially Removed Lil Yachty From ‘Supersoak’
“Supersoak” is the big story here, though. Kai Cenat originally previewed the song during a live stream. Lil Yachty was featured on the original version. Yachty then went on the Flagrant podcast and claimed that the song would never be released due to a sample clearance issue. THEN Drake’s people claimed that the song would be coming out officially. Only, Lil Yachty wouldn’t be featured on it. This is what we meant when we previously alluded to “drama.” The Drake and Yachty saga doesn’t even get into Soulja Boy, and umbrage he took with Drake borrowing his “Supersoak” catchphrase. Drake and Soulja are not going to mend their fences, ever, it feels like.
All that said, “Supersoak” is a hit. It’s got a wildly catchy instrumental. It also features a Drake flow that is bound to get stuck in people’s heads. There’s been rumors that the rapper is already shooting a music video for the song, which all but confirms that it’s his next big single. We’ve yet to given information as to what happened between Drake and Lil Yachty. That said, fans can bask in the fact that we finally have the “Supersoak” song. Hopefully they all land on streaming soon.

[WATCH] Lil Yachty Claims He Wrote All Of Karrahbooo’s Music In IG Live Rant
Lil Yachty heard through the hood network that his former artist, Karrahbooo, was talking slick aboht him and his crew, the Concrete Boys and even accused the rapper/actor of “bullying” her into leaving the fold. Well, that didn’t over well with Boat and he took to IG and basically told the world that he made her career and her biggest downfall was how she treated the people around her.
“Bro, go ahead [and tell] people how you talk to people,” Yachty said during his IG rant. “You talk to people like they were nothing,” Yachty added. “Like they’re small, like they’re beneath you.” He also addressed an allegation that she said she would spit on her former boss. “How you told me you ‘gon spit on me when you see me,” he said. “Your brain is clinically imbalanced…”
“I’ve given you a career and time and time you just disrespect me,” he described. “I wrote every f*cking verse you’ve done, I dressed you.” “I changed your motherf*cking life,” he concluded. “You out here lying.”

Uproxx Music 20: Teyter Tot Is Bringing Her Fierce Bay Area Energy To A City Near You
This week’s Uproxx Music 20 column takes things to the West Coast, where we shine a light on rapper Teyter Tot. With a project and a slew of singles under her belt, the Oakland native caught my attention thanks to a couple of freestyles that live on her Instagram page. The first is one from a few months ago with the platform In The Kitchen With H-Dot and the other is with another called Hotel Freestyles. In both, Teyter Tot displayed fierce attitude as she fired off brash, tough-talking bars over bass-rattling production.
Teyter Tot’s music reminds me a bit of Rico Nasty’s, only with an emphasis on The Bay rather than the DMV. Teyter’s most recent project came back in 2022 with Different Breed, and though she’s yet to release a record in 2024, she’s spent the last week teasing what we can assume is her next single of many to come. The sky is the limit for the Oakland-bred rapper, so if you want to dive into her releases, you can start with Different Breed highlights like “Act Right” and “Wait” or check out some of her 2023 singles like “Angel” and “Choose Up.”
With more to come from Teyter Tot, scroll down to learn more about her artistry and discover her inspiration, aspiration, and influences.

What is your earliest memory of music?
Music has been a part of my life as long as I can remember, so I’m not sure. What I do remember is my mom telling me when I was a few months old, she would purposefully put on Mary J. Blige and I would sit up and bounce on beat.
Who inspired you to take music seriously?
My mother. She always told me if I do it, do it fully and always encouraged me to finish what I started. She also exposed me to a lot of art as a child so I’ve always been developing a taste for culture.
Do you know how to play an instrument? If so, which one? If not, which instrument do you want to learn how to play?
Yes, I can play piano and drums. I kinda forgot how to read music, but if I studied for like a month, I’d probably have it down again. I still would also love to learn how to play bass.
What was your first job?
Chipotle. I hated it.
What is your most prized possession?
My mind.
What is your biggest fear?
Not trying or being too enthralled in shame based fear that I don’t have the space to grow.
Who is on your R&B/rap/afrobeats Mt. Rushmore?
The Pharcyde, Lil Wayne, Ladybug Mecca from Digable Planets, and Lauryn Hill.
You get 24 hours to yourself to do anything you want, with unlimited resources: What are you doing? And spare no details!
I don’t know, probably walking around butt ass naked with mad jewelry on eating berries and sh*t through a tea garden in Japan. Then I’d swim in a stream or something & smoke a blunt in a country you probably aren’t supposed to.
What are your three most used emojis?
, 
, and 
.
What’s a feature you need to secure before you die?
Sahbabii, Young Thug, and Veeze.
If you could appear in a future season of a current TV show, which one would it be and why?
Catch me on the next season of Euphoria.
Which celebrity do you admire or respect for their personality and why?
Rihanna, all girls love Rihanna. She’s a boss, she’s that girl.
Share your opinion on something no one could ever change your mind about.
Too many people associate their own value to what they are able to provide monetarily and that gives you low self-esteem which actually makes it harder to live anyway.
What is the best song you’ve ever heard in your life and what do you love about it?
Maybe Sade’s “Smooth Operator” because it’s smooth and player. It feels like an immersive experience each time I hear it.
What’s your favorite city in the world to perform, and what’s a city you’re excited to perform in for the first time?
Favorite city is probably Los Angeles, they show me hella love. I’m looking forward to some day performing in London or Tokyo.
You are throwing a music festival. Give us the dream lineup of 5 artists that will perform with you and the location where it would be held.
Rihanna, Future, Sade, 03 Greedo, and Veeze.
What would you be doing now if it weren’t for music?
Probably in school for psychology/sociology doing political justice work, which I do now anyway, but I’d have all my focus on that.
If you could see five years into the future or go five years into the past, which one would you pick and why?
Probably the past to give myself advice. I don’t really want to know my future, just live life man.
What’s one piece of advice you’d go back in time to give to your 18-year-old self?
Don’t date. Worry about how you gone get this bag, protect yourself, and prioritize your rest. Don’t compromise your comfort for others.
It’s 2050. The world hasn’t ended, and people are still listening to your music. How would you like it to be remembered?
Authentic. Real. Game for hustlers and women.
