Kodak Black Interpolates NBA Youngboy Bars On “Senseless”

by

After a bid behind bars, Kodak Black has been on a mission to make up for the lost time in his career. Since his release in January, the rapper already released two new projects — his full-length Haitian Boy Kodak and his surprising birthday release, Happy Birthday Kodak. However, the stream of music isn’t stopping any time soon. Between the two projects, a few guest appearances, and loose singles, it’s apparent that Kodak Black has enough music in the stash that he’s getting ready to release.

The rapper came through earlier today with a new video to accompany his latest single, “Senseless.” Taking on twangy, bluesy Louisiana production,  Kodak’s latest track was produced by Buddha Blessed and references NBA Youngboy’s “Make No Sense.” “I feel like I’m Kodak Black in 2015/ In the VIP with plenty killas, mixin’ molly with the lean,” Kodak raps on the hook through his nasally delivery. “Don’tmake no sense, I catch a body on the scene.”

Given the previous friction between NBA Youngboy and Kodak Black, it’s an interesting sample to choose from and flip.

Peep the record below.

Quotable Lyrics
Over on Southside, with that strap on, don’t need nobody else
I feel like I’m Kodak Black, don’t see nobody else
My n***as ain’t got no money, oh boy, get Jesus outta here
My n***as ain’t got no money, kick the demon outta here

Drakeo The Ruler Is A Picky Eater: See Why He Hates Mayonnaise & Ranch

by

If you’re tasked with cooking a meal for Los Angeles rapper Drakeo The Ruler, make sure you don’t add any sauces to the plate. The “Talk To Me” artist is a very picky eater and he’s got a lot of hatred in his heart for mayonnaise, ketchup, and other sauces. He spoke about his distaste for most condiments on the second part of his Snack Review episode.

Following up on his initial review portion, Drakeo got back with us to answer some pressing questions about his food preferences, and we learned a lot about the icon. For starters, he’s not a big fan of most sauces, enjoying barbecue on occasion but despising mayonnaise, ranch, and others.

Telling us that ranch dressing is the worst food he’s ever tried, Drakeo said, “I tried to eat it and I threw up. I tried to eat it someday, maybe it was with some chicken, and I just threw up. That’s when I knew– I knew I didn’t like the smell of it but when I did it that day, it just automatically went up. I couldn’t even swallow it. I do not fuck with ranch.”

That’s not even the only sauce that doesn’t agree with Drakeo. He also told us about an unpleasant experience while eating a lobster roll, finding mayonnaise in it. He immediately spoke to the server and told them that he didn’t want the meal anymore because of the mayo.

Are there any foods that you just can’t tolerate? Watch the new episode of Snack Review above.

6ix9ine’s Security Team Indicted On Robbery, Police Impersonation Charges: Report

by

According to The Daily Beast, the rapper’s security team  are facing some serious charges after they went on a wild chase in Harlem to find a man who captured footage of 6ix9ine on his cell phone.

The report says that five members of 6ix9ine’s team, which includes a former NYPD police officer, have been indicted on charges of robbery in the first and second degree, as well as first-degree criminal impersonation. 

Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr. detailed the alleged criminal actions in a press release, explaining that the rapper’s muscle chased down a 34-year-old with SUVs with flashing lights and sirens, similar to a police vehicle. 

The press release says that the man was with his girlfriend when he tried to capture a video of 6ix9ine in the flesh. However, tensions began flaring up once the man filming was spotted by security who yelled at him and chased him as he tried to drive away.

Daniel Leperuta, a retired NYPD detective, is among the defendants involved in the case. He’s accused of using his NYPD personnel identification and attempted to pin the blame on the victim. Laperuta claimed that the victim had attacked them with a firearm. Laperuta is accused of joining the chase before pulling over the victim, opening his car door, unbuckling his seatbelt, and knocking his phone to the ground. Another member of 6ix9ine’s crew is accused of stomping on the device.

As actual police officers made their way to the scene, 6ix9ine’s security had reportedly fled the scene, though Laperuta went to the police afterward where he doubled down on his claims of being threatened. He later retracted his statement once he was pressed by the lieutenant.

“A celebrity entourage is not a police department, and Manhattan is not the Wild West,” Vance wrote in a statement. “As alleged, these highly-compensated vigilantes caravanned through the streets of Harlem with sirens flashing in order to track a man down and steal and break his phone… False reports—especially about firearms—can carry devastating consequences and fortunately, no one was injured or killed in the actual police response.”

A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie Flips Capella Grey’s “Gyalis”

by

Even though it’s been over a year since A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie unveiled his incredibly lengthy album, Artist 2.0. Its deluxe edition boasted nearly 30 songs in total with appearances from Khalid, Roddy Ricch, Gunna, and more. Boogie might be riding high off of the album’s release, he hasn’t slowed down with new releases. Whether it’s a guest verse or a loose track that randomly pops up on the timeline, A Boogie is still serving up heat at any given moment.

Capella Grey’s single “Gyallis” has been gaining some serious buzz and now, A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie has now returned with the remix. The Juvenile sample and island flavor is a perfect fit for the rapper who flexes his vocal prowess with lavish flexes.

Peep the record below.

Quotable Lyrics
He thinks he’s that n***a
He’s the reason why she’s on my dick
He’s the reason she switchin’ sides
Please don’t feel ashamed, it’s a cycle
I’ve been places, felt uninvited
Way too many times I’ve been lied to

The Crossover Between Rap And Basketball Showcases Dual Threats On Both Sides

by

Basketball players and rappers occasionally crossing into one another’s worlds is by no means a new trend. For years, some hoopers have viewed music as an interest to pursue when they’re not out on the hardwood, while rappers have viewed the basketball court as a place to go have some fun in between recording sessions.

In today’s Dime Breakdown, we decided to look at both sides of the coin. We start by highlighting a pair of NBA players who are two of the best on the mic right now. Of course, Damian Lillard is at the top of the NBA’s rap game right now, but there are plenty of other dudes on the come up. One of them, Sacramento Kings youngster Marvin Bagley III, has actually gotten into it with Dame (and, if we can be honest, came up short), but can still hold his own in the booth.

On the other side of things, we highlighted a pair of rappers who have game for days. J. Cole was an easy mention here, as he’s coming off of a spell as a professional basketball player in the Basketball Africa League earlier this year, while NLE Choppa is as bright a star on the court as he is in the studio.
