Lil RT’s Parents Under Fire After 10-Year-Old Gets Twerked On At Birthday Party

by

Earlier today, upsetting footage from young artist Lil RT’s birthday party surfaced online, leaving social media users outraged. Instead of celebrating with balloons and streamers, the newly-10-year-old is seen being twerked on by various grown women. For obvious reasons, viewers are disgusted, and calling out the child’s parents for letting something like this happen.

Many are accusing the women seen inappropriately dancing on Lil RT of pedophilia, and also believe that everyone involved needs to face serious consequences for alleged child abuse. Twitter/X is currently flooded with demands for authorities to send them to jail, and to also investigate those responsible for the child’s wellbeing. Due to the disturbing nature of the clip, it will not be included in this article.

10-Year-Old Rapper’s Disturbing Birthday Party Goes Viral

“That Lil RT kid is 10 years old. Shame on the men and women that got grown a** strippers twerking in their draws on him. Get that sh*t off my TL,” one Twitter/X user writes. “I’m not REPOSTING that video of Lil RT at his 10th birthday party because the video ITSELF is child abuse/CSA material,” another says. “I hope it gets into the hands of the proper people because that sh*t is…”

Some commenters have even announced that they’ll be unfollowing the child from his various social media platforms as a form of protest, and are also urging others to do the same. At the time of writing, Lil RT’s parents have yet to address the backlash surrounding the clip.

Raveena Taps An Unexpected Guest Star, Jpegmafia, On Her New Single, ‘Junebug’

by

If there are two names who’d seem like stylistic opposites, Raveena and Jpegmafia would fit the bill. One’s a dreamy, mellow pop-soul singer who’s deeply in touch with her spirituality. The other’s a raw force of chaos whose last album cheekily nodded at the jest that his music is best for Scaring The Hoes. Somehow, on Raveena’s new single “Junebug,” they actually form a surprising chemical bond that turns out to blend better than you might expect. A big part of that is Peggy toning his energy way down and riding the jazzy groove like he stepped straight out of hip-hop’s Golden Era.

The track is the latest single from Raveena’s upcoming album Where The Butterflies Go In The Rain, and like its predecessors, continues the running theme of transformation (and bug references). In the video for “Pluto,” Raveena turns into a butterfly, while in the video for “Lucky,” she romances a giant caterpillar(?) that eventually also metamorphoses into a butterfly.

In a statement, Raveena explained the unexpected collaboration, saying, “I love inviting people with vastly different sonic landscapes to my music. To me, it is proof of our oneness and divine inter-connectedness. Jpegmafia brought the perfect energy to this summertime song — and I think we both aligned on this song with our mutual love for the tropics, with me being from India and Peggy from Jamaica.”

Listen to “Junebug” above. Where The Butterflies Go In The Rain is due on June 14 via Empire Records.

Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” Lyrics Snuck Into Meteorologist’s Viral Weather Reports

by

Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” is primed to be one of the biggest hits of the summer. The Mustard-produced song debuted at number one during the thick of his beef with Drake. It’s still high on the Hot 100 spending a second week at number two behind only Post Malone and Morgan Wallen’s new collaboration “I Had Some Help.” The song also produced a number of hilarious lyrics that immediately seeped into popular culture predominately through memes. Now a new video making the rounds online shows another strange place the song’s influence has popped up.

A meteorologist from Houston named Adam Krueger has been sneaking lyrics from the hit diss track into some recent weather reports. An eagle-eyed fan caught on and made a compilation of various references he made during weather reports. That included lines about passing like John Stockton and how many stocks he really has in stock that are borrowed directly from the song. In the comments, fans continue to be amazed just how far reaching and successful the diss track has been. Check out the hilarious video of a meteorologist quoting Kendrick below.

Meteorologist Sneaks Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” Into Weather Report

“Not Like Us” hasn’t just been cleaning up on the charts, but also on streaming services. The song broke numerous Spotify records including a pair that were previously owned by Drake. First it broke the record for most streams in 24 hours by a solo rap song. Then it broke the record for most streams in 24 hours by any rap song period. The two records were previously held by Drake’s “Champagne Poetry” and his Lil Baby collab “Girls Want Girls” respectively. The song already has more than 275 million streams on Spotify alone.

What do you think of a Houston meteorologist sneaking lyrics from “Not Like Us” into some of his recent weather reports? Are you surprised by just how successful the diss track has been since it dropped last month? Let us know in the comment section below.

Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us’ Is Even Taking Over Local Weather Reports Now, Courtesy Of Meteorologist Adam Krueger

by

Houston’s rapping meteorologist Adam Krueger is at it again, sneaking another set of fan-favorite bars into his weather report. Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” has been literally everywhere lately (arguably, too many places), so why not the local news?

Rap fans online were tickled when they learned Krueger had incorporated the song into his latest report for CW39 Houston, imitating Kendrick’s emphatic ad-libbing as he noted an incoming heatwave. “Wop wop wop wop wop! We get hit with a heat index well over 100,” he lamented. He also sneaks in a nifty rhyme name-checking NBA Hall of Famer John Stockton. The important thing to note, as he says in a follow-up about the viral popularity of the clip, is that he’s not choosing sides in the battle between Kendrick Lamar and Drake (which is basically over anyway, right?).

Krueger has been entertaining rap fans with his bits for over a year, after taking a fan suggestion to recite rap lyrics during his report on TikTok. He began going viral in 2023 when he started quoting Eminem lyrics during his report, along with bars from Cardi B and Snoop Dogg. He also does songs from pop groups, suggestions from grade school students, and more, but generally gets the biggest reactions online from raps.

He isn’t the only rap fan news man who practices his hobby on the air. MSNBC’s Ari Melber has gone viral a few times thanks to his insightful breakdowns of popular rap verses from Jay-Z and quotes from the Notorious B.I.G.

Jay-Z Turned His Back On Beanie Sigel Amid Attempted Murder Trial, Former Roc-A-Fella Rapper Claims

by

Back in 2004, Beanie Sigel went on trial for alleged attempted murder, as he was accused of firing six shots at a man outside of a Philly bar during an argument. The man was struck twice, once in the stomach and once in the foot. Jay-Z took the stand at one point in the trial, but according to Oschino, he might as well have stayed home.

During a recent interview with Say Cheese, the rapper weighed in on the trial, criticizing Jay-Z for seemingly turning his back on Sigel. He recalled showing up for court and hearing the Roc Nation founder’s testimony, expressing shock that he opted not to fully vouch for his friend. “I came to court for Beanie when he allegedly shot somebody,” he told the outlet. “JAY-Z got on the stand and they said, ‘Are you gonna be responsible for him if we let him go?’ JAY-Z said, ‘No.’ I was there. This ain’t hearsay; this was me in the courtroom.”

Oschino Criticizes Jay-Z For Beanie Sigel Trial

“I was just thinking, ‘What did he come to court for then?’ If I got a homie and all I gotta say is, ‘I’m responsible for him for him to get out,’ I’m saying it every time […] The judge was trying to give him an out. He said, ‘No,’” Oschino continued. “And nobody didn’t say nothing, nobody flinched. Mind you, I’m a jail n***a so I’m looking around like, ‘Nobody not saying nothing?!’ Like it was normal […] Maybe I’m too street in my thinking and maybe he was being more responsible, but I was thinking, ‘Man, these boys is different.’”

Trina Believes She Deserves To Be In The Top 5 Female Rappers Conversation

by

Trina spoke on her legacy during a recent interview with Carlos King, arguing that she feels left out of the debate over the top five female rappers of all time. She explained that she’s influenced most of the artists she sees fans pick for their lists. “I feel like I know what I’ve done and I feel like even your top 5 has been at some point influenced by me,” she said. “I know, or probably even worked with or loved – even idolized. It’s probably somebody I really support and love in the industry.”

When The Neighborhood Talk shared the clip on Instagram, fans had mixed responses to Trina’s take. In the comments section, one user wrote: “No shade we gotta give Trina her flowers. She’s a staple in female rap that doesn’t get enough recognition.” Another countered: “I love Trina, but let’s be real, she is not in the top 5, she may not even be in the top 10 if we are being honest…” Later in the clip, she mentions how she was always nominated at the BET Awards, but rarely won anything.

Elsewhere in the interview, Trina discussed one female rapper who fans often list in their top five, Nicki Minaj. She revealed that she hasn’t spoken to her in a number of years, but she’s happy for the success she’s achieved. “I’m proud, like, you’re deserving of this, like, we watched your first tour, it was great… and now it’s like phenomenal, and you’re just looking at the growth — you just got your son,” Trina said. “…I’m just happy for you, even if you over here and I’m over here, but I’m just happy for you. And I feel like everything that’s happening for her, she deserves.”

Denzel Curry Announces “King Of The Mischievous South Vol. 2:” What We Know

by

Denzel Curry has officially announced his new album, King Of The Mischievous South Vol. 2, alongside the release of a new single, “Hot One.” This highly anticipated sequel revisits the sound that initially propelled Curry into the spotlight. With the release of “Hot One,” it promises to deliver the same intensity and creativity fans have come to expect. With a mix of nostalgic homage and fresh innovation, Curry is set to redefine his musical landscape once again.

On The Radar Debut

In conjunction with the announcement of the project, Curry has released the FNZ and SkipOnDaBeat-produced single “Hot One,” featuring TiaCorine and A$AP Ferg. Curry debuted the track earlier this week during his “Mischievous Cypher” on On The Radar, alongside Ferg and Tia. The collaboration with Ferg is particularly notable, given their shared history and the creative exchange between A$AP Mob and Raider Klan in their early days.

“Hot One”

“Hot One” is a long-awaited collaboration between Curry and Ferg. The two have been pivotal forces in hip-hop in the last decade. However, the addition of TiaCorine serves as a co-sign for one of the most promising new artists. The track blends their unique styles, creating a breakout hit that captures the energy of summer. There’s no doubt that it sets the tone for the forthcoming album.

A Sequel To A Groundbreaking Project

King Of The Mischievous South Volume 2 sees Curry return to the roots of his career. The first installment, performed under his Raven Miyagi persona—a name given by Raider Klan founder SpaceGhostPurrp—was a pivotal moment in Curry’s early days. Now, Curry adopts his Big Ultra persona, an evolved and more confident version of Raven Miyagi. It reflects the success and growth he has experienced over the past decade.

Curry has been actively building anticipation for King Of The Mischievous South Vol. 2. Recently, during a visit to New York City, he stopped by The Lot Radio and teased new material on his “Mischievous Radio” show with DJ Dylan Ali. Additionally, Curry engaged with fans on Instagram, revealing the project’s features and re-releasing the original King Of The Mischievous South Vol. 1 on SoundCloud, setting the stage for the upcoming sequel.

Honoring Southern Musical Heritage

Creating King Of The Mischievous South Volume 2 has been on Curry’s bucketlist. Earlier attempts at the project evolved into other significant works, such as his 2016 album “Imperial” and 2020’s 3LOOD 1N + 13LOOD OUT. It wasn’t until Curry ceased forcing the creation of Volume 2 that the songs began to emerge organically, culminating in the project now ready for release.

The sound of King Of The Mischievous South Volume 2 pays tribute to the rich musical traditions of the South, from Memphis to Houston to Curry’s native South Florida. The project features a stellar lineup of artists whose styles are deeply rooted in the Southern legacy. Contributors include Key Nyata, Juicy J, Project Pat, Maxo Kream, That Mexican OT, Mike Dimes, TiaCorine, 2 Chainz, Kenny Mason, Ski Mask The Slump God, PlayThatBoiZay, A$AP Ferg, and A$AP Rocky.

The Fun & Mastery Of Denzel Curry

Throughout his career, Curry has taken listeners on various conceptual journeys. With this project, he aims to showcase the fun, spontaneity, and technical prowess that have cemented his place as one of the most sought-after talents in rap over the past ten years. This project is a testament to Curry’s versatility and his ability to keep his audience engaged with fresh and dynamic content.
