Kendrick Lamar’s Engineer Is Being Called A Liar Over Drake Diss Revelation

by

A clip from a sit-down between Kendrick Lamar’s engineer and Engine Ears Live is stirring up conversation. During their chat, Nicolas de Porcel retold the “amazing” procedure behind each Drake diss record during their battle. “It was a little crazy. I got a call, and it was like, ‘Stay on call, you’re gonna be working’”, Porcel began. “I would get the song and like six minutes would elapse and they’d be like, ‘How we looking?’. It was very high pressure. As Dot was releasing these records, it was like, I was turning in the masters… It would drop like 12 minutes later. It was amazing”.

Any sort of extra details about this beef are going to cause even more debate, and that’s exactly what is going on in the Xspace. According to XXL, fans are very split on whether or not de Porcel is telling the truth. Expectedly, there are a lot of skeptics out there, which is quite understandable. Many non-believers were pointing out how there is no way every fine detail was being ironed out. “You guys smoking the same crack Kendrick was in Power. It’s literally not possible to mix and master a full session at a professional level in just 30 minutes. It takes that long just to organize and label all the session stems”, one user states.

Fans Don’t See Eye To Eye On Kendrick’s Engineer Making This Claim

Additionally, some weren’t agreeing due to the fact that Kendrick didn’t address anything said in “Family Matters”. “Lmao it’s literally not possible to listen to family matters, enter the studio and record meet the grahams, mix and master the track and release it all under 30 minutes, he didn’t even rebuttal anything from family matters😭”. Then, there are some who are pointing out that it’s totally plausible, citing Kendrick’s greatness as a result. “They are surprised the man is that good.. they trying to talk down on the genius.. too good !!!”.

What are your thoughts on Kendrick Lamar’s engineering being called out for how long the Drake diss tracks took to be put together? Whose side of the argument are you on and why? Which record is your favorite from K-Dot? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

ScHoolboy Q Clowns TDE’s Punch Over ASAP Rocky Underwear Ad

by

It’s no secret that ASAP Rocky’s Savage X Fenty underwear ad is a fan favorite, but according to ScHoolboy Q, it might have elicited too much of a reaction out of TDE’s Punch. Earlier today, Punch took to X to reveal that he’s been seeing the ad nonstop. He added that he found it pretty compelling too, and is considering getting a pair of his own.

“Man these Fenty drawls Rocky selling has great marketing and promotion. The ad pops up every time I scroll,” he wrote. “I’m finna get some.” Most fans agree that this is some solid promotion, and some even admitted that they too were tempted to get themselves a pair. ScHoolboy Q, on the other hand, took the opportunity to clown Punch for his comments.

ScHoolboy Q Tells Punch To “Relax”

“U gotta relax,” he wrote simply alongside a laughing emoji. Fortunately for Punch, the replies are flooded with fans coming to his defense, insisting that the ad truly is impossible to escape. “He ain’t wrong though, that ad be EVERYWHERE,” one claims. “Nah, dead a**. I didn’t ask for this,” another says. Punch isn’t the only one to find himself on the receiving end of ScHoolboy Q’s clowning, however. Back in 2022, ASAP Rocky teamed up with Calvin Klein for another underwear ad, which earned him a full-on roast.

“Y’all knew I was gone pull up… I honestly don’t know wat 2 say brah,” ScHoolboy Q commented at the time. “This sh*t so outta pocket he put headphones on… We been friends for about 10 yrs I’m really un following u on god.” Apparently, he made good on his promise too, though he’s since refollowed the Fashion Killa. What do you think of Punch’s take on ASAP Rocky’s Savage X Fenty Underwear ad? What about ScHoolboy Q clowning him for it?

Cardi B’s Friends Hope She Doesn’t Back Out Of Offset Divorce, Source Claims

by

Earlier this week, Cardi B filed for divorce from Offset after roughly seven years of marriage. The hitmaker cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for their split, and sources say it’s been a long time coming. Cardi B also took to Instagram yesterday to announce that she’s expecting her third child with Offset. Reportedly, she’s seeking primary custody of their little ones and is requesting that Offset pay child support.

Amid all these major developments, some fans have been skeptical, as this is far from the first time Cardi and Offset went their separate ways. Back in 2020, Cardi B filed for divorce once again, though she dropped the proceedings only a couple of months later. Late last year, the “Enough” rapper also declared that she was single before putting the former Migos member on blast.

She is excited about this new baby, and she’s recording, so everything with her is actually pretty good,” they explained.

“Her friends just want her to be happy,” the source also added. “We’ve seen them break up, get back together, break up, get back together, and it’s like we just want her to stick to her decision and just enjoy her f*cking life. You’re so successful. You’ve come so far in your career, just enjoy your life.” What do you think of Cardi B’s friends reportedly hoping she sticks to her decision to divorce Offset?

Skip Bayless Delivers Final Goodbye Message To FS1

by

Skip Bayless is easily one of the biggest names in the entire sports broadcasting world. However, the last year or so has not been fruitful. Overall, he lost Shannon Sharpe and his Undisputed ratings began to tank. Recently, it was reported that he would be leaving FS1 as it just wasn’t working out. Bayless had largely remained silent on all of this. He wasn’t providing fans with any updates, and no one knew when his last day at the network would be.

Well, today, Skip Bayless officially clocked in for his last day at Undisputed. It was revealed this morning that this would be his last episode. He had Lil Wayne on to celebrate, and it was all very low-key. Following the episode, Skip took to Twitter to offer up his final goodbye.

Kendrick Lamar Hits Another New Milestone Thanks To “Not Like Us”

Kendrick Lamar is one of the biggest artists in the world, and so far in 2024, he has been having a great year. Overall, it started with an attack on Drake in “Like That.” This subsequently escalated into an all out war where he eventually KO’d Drake with both “Meet The Grahams” and “Not Like Us.” May 3rd proved to be a wild day for hip-hop, and since then, nothing has been the same. In fact, “Not Like Us” has continued to be one of the biggest songs in the entire world.

It hit number one on the Billboard hot 100 on more than one occasion. Furthermore, it received a music video that has already blown up beyond comprehension. Fans are waiting on an album from Kendrick, although for now, Lamar has been happy to sit on the success of “Not Like Us.” In fact, according to Chart Data, “Not Like Us” is officially the best-selling song of 2024. There has been some stiff competition, which makes this accomplishment that much more impressive.

Megan Thee Stallion Stands By Kamala Harris Rally Performance Amid Outrage

by

Earlier this week, Megan Thee Stallion took the stage at Kamala Harris’ rally in Atlanta, showing her support for the current Vice President in this year’s election. She performed a mashup of some of her biggest hits like “Body,” “Mamushi,” and more. She also launched her “Hotties for Harris” campaign, designed to encourage young fans to vote. Unfortunately, however, not everyone was a fan of the show. Meg’s performance quickly went viral as social media users slammed her for her performance. Many took issue with her twerking onstage in particular, arguing that it was inappropriate for the occasion.

Luckily, it doesn’t look like the femcee was fazed by the backlash, which she addressed at Lollapalooza yesterday. In a clip from her set, Meg doubled down, making it clear that she doesn’t plan to change her ways for critics. “They was big mad that I was poppin’ it for Kamala,” she began before reaffirming her support for Harris. “Hotties for Harris, god dammit!”

During her set, Meg also highlighted Harris’ stance on various key issues, including women’s rights. This echoes what she said onstage at the Atlanta rally when she emphasized Harris’ take on Roe v. Wade. “Now I know my ladies in the crowd love their bodies,” she said. “If you want to keep loving your bodies, you know who to vote for.” The hitmaker has long been a vocal advocate for reproductive healthcare, even accepting the 2024 Catalyst of Change Award at Planned Parenthood’s annual gala in April.
