Slim Thug has let his allegiance be known in the divisive drama between Megan Thee Stallion and Tory Lanez, clearly siding with Megan and calling Lanez and other men who hurt women “lame” amongst other insults.

Slim took to Instagram Live on Friday and shared his thoughts on the matter in a minute and a half long video in which he clearly expressed support for his fellow Houston artist.

In the video, which can be seen on @livebitez on X, Slim sits in his car and speaks to the camera while rolling an unknown substance.

He says:

“You n***as oughta be ashamed of ya’ll self for hating on Thee Stallion. I wanted to give her a big a** hug after I watched that,” Slim said in the clip below. Man, she been through a lot. Lost her daddy, lost her mama, best friend…a n***a she slept with shot at her. And the court….ah man….boy a n***a she slept with shot at her. What n***a….I don’t give a damn, all you Tory Lanez fans…it don’t ever make sense to pull a gun on a b***h period.

But yeah, all you men out there hating on a woman, you n***as is weird and deserved to be slapped. Real life you n***as is hella weird, but you n***as act like women so I ain’t surprised y’all…talking about a woman.”

He pauses to continue rolling before reiterating “weird a** n***as” and calling them “gossip queens,” stating “there’s a lot of gossip queens out there.”

30 years ago today rapper Brad “Scarface” Jordan dropped his third studio album The Diary. The album was released on October 18th, 1994 by Rap-A-Lot Records. With singles like “Hand of the Dead Body” released on September 27, 1994, and “I Seen A Man Die” on November 1, 1994, The Diary was certified platinum by the RIAA on December 5th, 1994.

This album was a lot different from his first two releases, Mr. Scarface Is Back and The World Is Yours. On The Diary, Producers N.O., Joe, Mike Dean, Uncle Eddie, and Scarface himself chose a different route when it came to sounds. They were influenced by live instruments, southern blues, and the relaxed pace of that California G-Funk. This became a Rap-A-Lot trademark.

Classic tracks from this album include the haunting “Hand Of A Dead Body”, which features Ice Cube and Devin The Dude, the action-packed storyline of “Goin’ Down” and the epic “I Seen A Man Die”, which was followed by the unforgettable visual.

Salute to J. Prince, Uncle Face, Mike Dean, N.O. Joe, Uncle Eddie, the entire crew at Rap-A-Lot for this timeless classic!

Scarface Gave Fans An Optimistic Health Update Following His Open-Heart Surgery

October 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Scarface is a fighter—both in his respected rap career and life. Today (October 8), the “F*ck You Too” rapper shared an update regarding his health condition.

On August 23, Scarface took to his official Instagram page to tell supporters that he had undergone a medical procedure. At the time, Scarface did not disclose the details surrounding his hospitalization.

Today, Scarface revealed that he was admitted to a facility for cardiac concerns. “Six weeks ago I underwent open-heart surgery,” he wrote.

Scarface went on to demonstrate his optimistic outlook. “To be upright and smiling today shows you that God ain’t nothing to play with,” he wrote. “And again I say, I’m grateful, it could’ve went either way, yet I’m still alive.”

Over the years, Scarface faced multiple difficult diagnosis and subsequent treatments. In 2020, Scarface contracted COVID. He used his platform to chronicle his symptoms and path towards recovery.

The following year, Scarface received a new kidney from his son after COVID caused damage to the organ.

During an interview with FOX 26 Houston, Scarface discussed the internal damage the virus caused. “COVID attacked my lungs first,” he said. “And then it attacked my kidneys and knocked them out. I got full lung recovery, but my kidneys never came back.”

Similar to his transplant surgery, Scarface is hopeful that he will make a full recovery.

Health is truly wealth. Legendary rapper and producer Scarface would certainly agree with this ideology. Over the years, the Geto Boys member has documented his frightening medical ups and downs, which included a kidney transplant and a battle with the coronavirus.

Sadly, Scarface is back in the hospital for an undisclosed ailment. Yesterday (August 23), the “F*ck You Too” rapper posted an image of himself receiving medical treatment. “Ouch… Grateful,” read the caption.

Scarface did not outline the nature of his treatment or what he was admitted for. But the Houston Chronicle pointed out that one of the professionals in the image belonged to the facility’s Cardiovascular Intensive Care Unit. After he’s had time to properly heal, Scarface might provide the public with further information.

Until then, several hip-hop titans, including DJ Premier, Mannie Fresh, E40, DJ Quik, Twista, Three 6 Mafia, and Krayzie Bone rushed to the post’s comment section to wish the Southern rap icon a speedy recovery.

“Prayers sent Face! Continue to heal. Love you, Brad,” wrote Premier.

“Praying for a speedy recovery family. I love you,” penned E40.

“Let’s go bro, we got things to do,” added Mannie Fresh.

“Brad, we got more work to do bro bro. Ain’t no time to be out of time,” chimed Quik.

“God, watch, protect, and heal my brother,” inked Twista.

During a recent performance on his Behind The Desk Experience Tour, Dirty South Hip Hop legend Scarface paid tribute to the late Tupac Shakur by recalling a time when the pop culture icon played a prank on him and blew his high when he first arrived in Los Angeles.

“First time I got to California, I’m in L.A., smoking LA weed. We ain’t ever had no shit like this before,” Scarface said. “I’m living in Burbank and recording the Untouchable album. It’s my first time getting high with some L.A. chronic.”

Scarface continues, “The homeboy[Tupac] pull up on me, he got a black Hummer with a fucking siren and loudspeaker on it. I’m in my apartment in Burbank high as fuck for the first time ever, and they come up and they go, ‘Brad Jordan, we know you’re in there, come out with your hands up.’ I’m on the couch like this and my motherfucking high says [does a walking away action]. He just blew my fucking high, man, and he wanted to go to the studio and record, right? He wanted me to ride in this Hummer with him. I’m not going anywhere with him because he does not have a driver’s license. And he can’t drive at all.”

Face then performed his classic track “Smile” which he shared with Tupac, becoming one of the Houston native’s biggest hits that dropped just months after Tupac’s untimely demise.

March 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Killer Mike is still enjoying the afterglow of his big night at the Grammys last month. He took home three awards, nearly sweeping the rap category. In fact, he was so excited by the awards that even being arrested for a reported backstage assault couldn’t sour his mood. He continued celebrating even while discussing the arrest in the weeks following the show. Since then he’s been on a full on victory lap of sorts popping up all over the place on various shows, podcast, radio shows and more.

Most recently, he popped up at another rapper’s concert. Texas legend Scarface was performing in Atlanta at the Variety Playhouse earlier this week. He already pulled out some big guests headlined by 2 Chainz appearing for the hyped crowd. Shortly after he played a mash-up version of Killer Mike’s song “Motherless” Mike himself walked out on stage with him. He even made some jokes about the rapper’s big night at the Grammys. ““Killer Mike took all the Grammys. Swept they ass. Wow! I told y’all, I got nothing but friends in Atlanta, man. Mike just fucked me up, man,” he told the crowd. Check out a video of the adorable moment below.

Earlier this week Killer Mike was advocating for another rapper’s venture. He spoke positively of Vince Staples recent venture into the world of television with The Vince Staples Show. The Netflix product received mostly positive reviews from both fans and critics but hasn’t yet been approved for a second season. Mike felt the need to publicly push for the show to get another chance with a second season.

Mike has appeared on screen numerous times before. He’s about to once again soon as he contributed to an upcoming documentary advocating against rap lyrics being used in court. What do you think of Killer Mike popping up and surprising Scarface at a show 2 Chainz also attended? Do you think Mike deserved the three different awards the Grammys gave him? Let us know in the comment section below.
