FKA Twigs Fans Think Lil Nas X Ripped Her Off With His New ‘Montero (Call Me By Your Name)’ Video

Last night, after months of Hype, Lil Nas X finally released his “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” video. Ahead of the premiere, he excitedly tweeted, “bro i wrote this song myself, co-directed the video, and had to step way out of my comfort zone for this moment to take place tonight! i hope you guys love it! F*CKK I CANT WAIT!!!” He later added, “can’t wait for you to see the video tonight! ITS AN EXPERIENCE!”

For some music fans, though, it was an experience they felt like they had seen before. Following the video’s debut, FKA Twigs became a trending topic on Twitter as people started point out perceived similarities between Nas’ new video and Twigs’ 2019 visual for “Cellophane.”

Twigs famously learned how to pole dance for her video and does so in mystical-looking environments, which is not unlike what Nas does in his clip. Some shared screenshots of frames from both videos that are strikingly similar. One user pointed out that Nas’s “Old Town Road” video won a Grammy over Twigs, which they felt added another layer of insult to Nas’ alleged plagiarism.

Check out some other reactions to Nas’ new “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” video below.

DJ Akademiks: “[Saweetie] Was Dead Weight Holding [Quavo] Back”

The Migos are entering a new chapter in their prolific run as one of the greatest rap groups of all-time, teasing the release of their upcoming album Culture III. As the trio of Quavo, Offset, and Takeoff navigates this new era, they’re continually struck with all kinds of potentially-damaging headlines about their personal lives, including cheating allegations for Quavo and Offset, as well as more serious claims about Takeoff

Following the recent split of rap’s favorite couple Saweetie and Quavo, there has been a lot of slander popping up on social media regarding the former, who called out her ex-boyfriend for cheating on her with multiple women. DJ Akademiks previously stated that the Migos are one of his favorite music acts, so it shouldn’t be surprising that he’s siding with them. However, the extent to which he’s trashing Saweetie post-breakup is pretty bad.

Taking to Twitter to tease a new version of the long-awaited “Modern Day Stroll” from Migos, Ak predicted a strong presence for Quavo in the coming months. “The Post Saweetie era for Quavo finna be legendary,” said the blogger. “I’m calling it. She was dead weight holding mans back. He already rapping different.”

Ak also said that Offset impressed him with his new verse on the song, adding, “Offset been rapping like cardi in the next room going thru his phone.. he snapping like a mf.”

Do you think Saweetie was holding Quavo back?

Pacman Da Gunman Enlists Nipsey Hussle & Mozzy For “Zero Tolerance”

Pacman Da Gunman has returned with his latest drop “Zero Tolerance,” a west coast posse cut featuring Mozzy and a posthumous verse from Nipsey Hussle. Obviously, Hussle’s presence will be a major selling point for many, and he certainly doesn’t disappoint.

Charged with opening things up with the chorus, Nip brings a commanding presence to the sparse and threatening instrumental. “Don’t even try I know you n***as too well,” he raps, holding it down for the second verse. “What’s the chance while pumping gas you catch me slippin’ at Shell / I can’t respect you if you in it for thrills.” Pacman keeps stride with his own verse, shrugging off the constant struggle to keep a grounded moral compass. “My conscious begging for murder it’s potent when I’m drinking,” he raps. “My losses made me a savage convert me to a demon.”

Charged with closing “Zero Tolerance” out, Mozzy slides in with a quicker flow, taking aim at snakes in the grass in his opening bars. “You ain’t get to disrespect the dead unless you killed a n***a,” he warns. “They ain’t close their mouth when apprehended, I ain’t feel them n***as / pivot ain’t respected, n***as out here cutting deals with bitches.”

Check out the track for yourself now, and show some love to Pacman, Nipsey, and Mozzy in the comments below.

QUOTABLE LYRICS

You ain’t get to disrespect the dead unless you killed a n***a
They ain’t close their mouth when apprehended, I ain’t feel them n***as 
Pivot ain’t respected, n***as out here cutting deals with bitches.”

Internet Money Rides The Wave With Lil Mosey & Lil Tecca On “JETSKI”

It looks like Internet Money has its next big hit following the success of last year’s “Lemonade”. The Los Angeles-based production collective has a team of talented musicians under its wing, including Nick Mira and Taz Taylor, who have proudly put Internet Money on their back since day one. They’ve worked with a gaggle of upcoming rap stars, finding success previously with Lil Mosey and Lil Tecca. They’ve been working on their next single for a number of months now and, finally, they’re ready to unleash it to the world with the release of “JETSKI”.

With the right treatment on the promotional side, Internet Money’s new song “JETSKI” has all the makings of a smash hit. It could do wonders to cement the careers of Lil Mosey and Lil Tecca as superstars for years to come, as well. The bouncy new record comes with a similar song structure to “Lemonade” so the collective surely knows they’ve got a formula that they need to stick to.

Listen to “JETSKI” below and let us know what you think.

Quotable Lyrics:

Damn, this money knee-high, catch me in Ibiza
Don’t know where I’m goin’ but I’m flyin’ in a G5
Gucci and Dior on me, feel like I’m in a beehive
Diamonds on me flash so hard, you cannot see now

YNW Melly Childishly Taunts His Opps On “Na Na Na Boo Boo”

As YNW Melly’s legal struggle continue, the Hip-Hop community is waiting with bated breath and see whether the talented Florida rapper will make it out of prison as a free man or do serious jail time for allegedly killing his two close associates, YNW Juvy and YNW Sakchaser. Compared to when other rappers who have faced major criminal charges and endured prison bids, #FreeMelly isn’t a call for freedom that all Hip-Hop fans can stand behind. Still, many will take new YNW Melly music whenever they can, so several fans are likely ecstatic that the Florida artist has returned with another single, mere weeks after his collaboration with Kodak Black.

In “Na Na Na Boo Boo,” YNW Melly channels his inner kid by repeatedly using the childish playground taunt that the rapper named his song after. In between a bevy of whiny “Na Na Na Boo Boo”-s, Melly actually delivers pretty vicious bars, as he talks about having sex with his enemy’s girlfriends and killing his opposition if necessary. At three-minutes long, the Florida artist’s new release is admittedly a bit unorthodox, but it definitely reflects Melly’s childlike creativity.  

Check out YNW Melly’s quirky new single “Na Na Na Boo Boo” below.

Quotable Lyrics

I don’t wanna f*ck the baby, cause I heard she ugly
Shorty wanna f*ck me, but I know the p*ssy musty
I am not a cleaner, but you know that p*ssy dusty
That choppa gon’ kill you, I swear to God we drill you

Drakeo The Ruler Sets Himself Apart From The Rest On “Out On Bail Freestyle”

Last month, Drakeo the Ruler dropped off The Truth Hurts, his second full-length project since being released from prison, and the California artist’s highly anticipated album boasted the massive Drake-assisted collaboration “Talk To Me.” In the wake of his recent wave of success, Drakeo has understandably been feeling himself, and he recently even deemed himself the best rapper alive from California.

Now, after a rumored XXL Freshman list leaked early, Drakeo the Ruler has stepped up to the bat to prove why he is currently one of the best California rappers and rising artists, period. Thus, he returns today, roughly a month since the release of The Truth Hurts, with the menacing “Out On Bail Freestyle.”

Throughout the freestyle, Drakeo actively sets himself apart from his competition, citing his independence, street credibility, and popularity as reasons why he’s nothing like his contemporaries. Utilizing a voracious whispery flow, the rapper tackles some infectious West Coast production, further cementing his ranks in the current hierarchy of California artists. Drakeo closes the two-minute freestyle with a sly shot at detractors, who he claims actually enjoy his music despite relentless criticisms. 

Did Drakeo the Ruler kill his “Out On Bail” freestyle or was it a miss?

Quotable Lyrics

Twenty five niggas did flips when they seen us fight nickels
The camera man couldn’t resist, ’cause it was some nice footage
Niggas sweet as sugar, I think they would make some nice pudding
Niggas swear they don’t like the don music, but wanna vibe to it
