Kanye West Is Reportedly Producing His Next Album “Bully” All By Himself

by

There are a lot of Kanye West rumors floating around these days, but not all of them have to do with his public controversies and alleged misconduct. Rather, many Ye fans out there expressed excitement over a new report from hip-hop journalist Touré, who offered some alleged insight into the Chicago artist’s situation these days. Per Touré, he’s living at a Tokyo hotel and working hard on his next album Bully, which will reportedly be a conceptual solo album that he’s recording at the hotel and not at a studio. However, the most important alleged detail is that the Yeezy mogul plans to self-produce the entire thing by himself, and it’s apparently unclear whether or not he will bring on guest vocalists.

“This album is 100% him,” an alleged source reportedly told Touré about Kanye West’s Bully, which seems like he will make completely on his own. “He’s producing everything 100% himself. This will be 100% Kanye West, which it hasn’t been in many, many years.” Of course, Ye is not always alone in Tokyo as he lives his “upper-class homeless” life, as Touré described it. Maybe folks will step in to help with mixing and mastering or other album details. But it looks like when it comes down to the actual music on display, the “SLIDE” artist will carry all the weight for now.

Kanye West Will Allegedly Produce Bully Alone

Elsewhere, Kanye West and his wife Bianca Censori recently disproved divorce rumors with a Tokyo shopping trip. That’s been another hot topic when it comes to his travels and goings-on as of late. But more salacious and disturbing allegations emerge when Ye’s sexual harassment accuser alleged that he told her about wanting to sleep with Censori’s mom. For more details on that, click the first internal link in the article (excluding Ye’s name) up in the first paragraph.

Meanwhile, this follows previous claims from Adam22 that Kanye West quit nitrous to focus on his new music. At the end of the day, we won’t believe Bully or any of its alleged details until we see the album for ourselves. But we can’t deny that a self-directed Ye album amid a more healed and less chaotic time could yield some compelling results.

Pharrell Williams & Tyler, The Creator Rep Their Respective Hometowns On “VIRGINIA Boy – Remix”

by

Pharrell Williams’ LEGO biopic, Piece By Piece, is in theaters as of yesterday, and we want to start off by congratulating him! The actor, producer, rapper, singer, and everything in between has fans and critics raving about the project so far! It has a respectable review from IMD.b of a 7.1 out of 10, and Rotten Tomatoes has a fan score of 91% and a critic score of 81%! We are wishing him nothing but the best going forward with this bold and creative motion picture. In typical fashion, though, Mr. Williams wasn’t just going to gift us a film, we have some new original music accompanying it.

One of the tracks that we have been replaying heavily has been Pharrell and Tyler, The Creator’s “VIRGINIA Boy – Remix.” The influential legend and his modern-day reincarnation are once again having a great time on a track together as they rap about where they’re from and detail it’s vital features. “Hawthorne, Inglewood, West Side, that side / I will kick, kick, kick, push to the other side / South Bay where they drown if they get it out of line / Dark red, light blue, and they keep a magic wand (Boom),” Tyler raps, for instance. Production of the song is handled entirely by Pharrell and its pure excellence. It exudes swagger right from the jump thanks to its bouncy West Coast beat and its saxophone bits. Give the track a spin with the link below.

Quotable Lyrics:

Yes, it is heat magnum, the verb lord
Mermaid city is where I was born, off of—

But heads are comin’ off once I press record

Nick Cannon Alleges That He Went To Diddy Party When He Was Underage

by

Nick Cannon recently hopped on The Breakfast Club for a new interview, which unsurprisingly broached the subject of the Sean Combs scandal at one point. For those unaware, Cannon’s previously spoke on his positive relationship with Diddy and how that led him to defend him during his slew of allegations, despite admitting that the Bad Boy mogul subjected Cassie to a lot of suffering. Back to the radio show, though, Charlamagne Tha God eventually remarked on how both the Wild N’ Out star and cohost Loren LoRosa have been to Diddy parties.

This led the former to allege that not only was he 16 or 17 years old when he attended, but that the event he went to was not an example of the “freak-offs” that are where the salacious and nefarious aspects under scrutiny allegedly went down. “You ain’t never been to a Diddy party?” Nick Cannon asked Charlamagne. “Okay, what’s classified as a Diddy party? ‘Cause you definitely been to some stuff [like] a Bad Boy event. So when he was in the city and all of that? I’ve even been there when I was a kid. Like, 16, 17. I live my truth. I remember standing outside, you know, trying to get into a Puff party out here in New York.

Nick Cannon Speaks On Diddy Parties

“Everybody was like – how the ‘One More Chance’ video looked?” Nick Cannon continued concerning Diddy’s parties back then. “That was real, real stuff out here. Like, people standing at the door, who can get in and stuff like that. Bad Boy parties was official in New York in the late ’90s. So, I mean, hey, whatever. Y’all talk to me. This is the thing. Everybody gets scared to talk because they probably got something to hide. I ain’t got nothing to hide.

“I was in there, Harlem shaking, doing all of that stuff,” Nick Cannon concluded. “But it wasn’t… Come on, whatever. Just like people would say ‘Pause’ and all of that stuff. What you hiding? Why are you always thinking like that? […] I think it’s unfair that we are classifying a good party [as] a ‘freak-off.’ But see, that’s the thing. I don’t drink, I don’t do drugs, so I was like, I don’t know all of that. I’m in my life sober. I’ve never been drunk in my life.”

GloRilla & Sexyy Red Finally Link For The First Time With “WHATCHU KNO ABOUT ME”

by

GloRilla’s debut album, GLORIOUS, is finally here. Listening to it, there are thankfully some instrumental/production and topical risks on the 15-song set. One thing that you could find as a weakness overall is her tendency to stick to what she knows. But on GLORIOUS, there are some tributes to gospel, which lead to some instances of personal reflection. Don’t get it twisted, though. Big Glo is still delivering her trademark crunk aesthetic with trunk-knocking bangers about confidence, independence, and the like. Speaking of the latter, one of the songs that GloRilla does best with is “WHATCHU KNO ABOUT ME.”

Shockingly, for the first time ever, her and Sexyy Red collide on it, and they have great chemistry. The beat may sound familiar to some as it samples Boosie Badazz’s and Webbie’s “Wipe Me Down.” Credit goes to Yo Gotti, Ace Charisma, and Lil Ronnie for putting a banging spin on it. The CMG boss is actually all over her debut album as a producer. Both leading ladies bring the brags, but Red adds an extra sense of grittiness that helps take this song to the next level. “WHATCHU KNO ABOUT ME” is already trending on YouTube with over 1.5 million views in its first 24 hours, so this looks to be an early fan-favorite.

Quotable Lyrics:

Coochie drive ’em crazy, CDC
He a dog for the p***y, and you know I got the treat
Private entry through the club, f*** a fee
A b**** play with gang tonight, her face going on a tee (Buh, buh)
Bad b****, you know I’m thick as Coachella
You won’t never catch me slippin’, I ain’t no f***in’ Cinderella, stupid b****

Fans Think Latto Dissed Ice Spice On New GloRilla Song And Here’s Why

by

Latto and Ice Spice are not friends. These two have been taking subliminal shots at one another for nearly two years. Nobody has said names on record, but the subs have been consistent and pretty obvious. Latto started the whole thing with the song “Fine As Can Be” in 2023. Fans thought Spice blasted back with “Fart,” and so on. The beef seemed to have died down in recent months, with the release of both of their debut studio albums. Maybe both had moved on to more important things. Latto’s latest guest verse, has fans thinking twice.

Latto dropped a memorable sixteen on the new GloRilla song “PROCEDURE.” The song is one of the obvious highlights on Glo’s new album. The reason the song is getting attention, though, is not for its catchy beat or snappy chorus. Instead, it’s because fans think Latto reignited her Ice Spice feud with one simple bar. “But b**ches ain’t got sh*t to steal, like, f*ck I want from you,” she raps. “Talkin’ ’bout takin’ spots, Caresha please, yeah (What).” Once again, no mention of Ice Spice by name. The reference to not having a style worth copying, however, feels pretty distinctly pointed at Spice. The same goes for the bar about “takin’ spots.”

Ice Spice Claims The Latto Beef Is One-Sided

The interesting thing about this particular diss placement, if it is one, is that it drags GloRilla into the beef. Glo has done a decent job of staying out of the drama, and the only time she interacted with Spice was a comedic exchange she had with Lil Duvall on social media. Duvall joked that Ice Spice had become the same size as GloRilla after she started working out. GloRilla didn’t appreciate the comparison, and fired back: : “Wym cause I’m thick af.”

Ice Spice, meanwhile, claims that she doesn’t understand what Latto’s problem is. She was asked about the beef during a recent profile with Rolling Stone. Simply put, she didn’t know what sparked it. “I feel like if we ever spoke and I asked her ‘What’s the issue?’ it’d be like a blank stare,” she asserted. “It’d really be no issue whatsoever. Especially from me.” Regardless of whether or not Ice Spice has a point, it seems like Latto isn’t going to stop.

Ty Dolla Sign Seemingly Defends Diddy In Leaked ‘FRIED’ Demo

by

Ty Dolla Sign established a reputation for fraternizing with complicated figures when he decided to link up with Kanye West. The R&B singer decided to release two collab albums with West during the wildest and most controversial period of the latter’s career. One of the songs these two worked on was “FRIED,” which appeared on VULTURES 2. A demo version of the song leaked on October 11, however, and it saw Ty Dolla Sign decide to take a very bold stance in favor of another complicated figure: Diddy.

Ty Dolla references the disgraced mogul in a verse that was scrapped from the final version. “Don’t say no Diddy ’round me,” the singer croons over the demo. “That’s my dog.” It’s a genuinely surprising take to dish out on a song in 2024, when public opinion of Diddy could not be lower. Furthermore, Diddy is currently behind bars. He’s awaiting trial on federal charges of sex trafficking and racketeering, and is facing 15 years to life. Ty Dolla Sign defending Diddy is, as they say on the internet, a choice. Especially given Kanye West’s feelings toward the Bad Boy founder.

Ty Dolla Sign Declared That Diddy Was His “Dog”

Kanye West has made it clear that he does not co-sign Diddy. He infamously roasted the Bad Boy founder when he appeared on a 2023 episode of Drink Champs. “As far as Meek Mill, Puff Daddy, whoever, none of these n**gas,” he told the hosts. “All of you fake hard n**gas, f**k you!” To make matters even more bold, West accused Diddy of being protected by the feds. “You can’t shoot nobody anyway,” he asserted. “And the reason why you gotta talk is because you did a deal, you f**king fed!”

Ty Dolla Sign has put forth a pretty unified front with West during these tumultuous VULTURES rollouts. Even when West seemingly flew off the handle and made controversial statements. His decision to cape for Diddy is one that has not been met with much praise from the internet. It remains to be seen whether Ty’s scrapped bars will get him in trouble with fans. Best case scenario, though, it’s still a very bad look.

GloRilla And Sexyy Red Drop Killer “WHATCHU KNO ABOUT ME” Video

by

GloRilla and Sexyy Red definitely cater to the same crowd. They know how to make instantly catchy trap songs that cater to women and men alike. GloRilla, in particular, is really having a moment. The rapper is fresh off the release of her debut album, Glorious, and it has been warmly received by fans. Many feel it showcases previously unforeseen depth to her pen game and overall persona. That said, the standouts have been the ratchet anthems, and “WHATCHU KNO ABOUT ME” is definitely one of those.

GloRilla and Sexyy Red sound perfectly at home on the bouncy beat to this new single. They knew they were hitting on a potential smash here, so it makes sense that this would be the song to get a video as soon as Glorious dropped. “WHATCHU KNO ABOUT ME” is not an instance of a music video trying to be artsy, or too clever for its own good. It gives the fans exactly what they want, which is GloRIlla and Sexyy Red shaking and rapping along in outrageous outfits. The two rappers are clearly having a ball during the video. The settings alternate between a barbershop and a bright pink background in which Glo and Red brandish increasingly bold looks.

GloRilla And Sexyy Red Bring Out The Best In Each Other

Fans have been waiting for GloRilla and Sexyy Red to link up on a song, and “WHATCHU KNO ABOUT ME” delivers on both the sonic and visual front. The video is fun, and easily rewatchable. The song is even better. GloRilla kicks things off with an energetic and stylish verse. Sexyy Red, of course, comes in with her trademark flow on the back end of the song. There’s a lot to like about the track, especially its bouncy, seemingly unstoppable instrumental.

“WHATCHU KNO ABOUT ME” is also one of the brightest Sexyy Red features in a minute. GloRilla seemingly brings the best out of her, and she delivers an enthusiastic guest verse. “You play with me, I put a pole in your teeth,” she spits. “I-I-I’m with my peoples, and we comin’ fifty deep. Ye ain’t know I was a hitta ’cause I’m always lookin’ fleek. C-C-Cash out new ball, AMG.” The enthusiasm comes across in the video. If this single is any indication of the rollout Glorious is going to have, then we’re in for a good time.

Snoop Dogg Reveals Shocking Pop Features For “Missionary” Album

by

Missionary is the most anticipated Snoop Dogg album in ages. The Long Beach legend is really building up the hype, from its title to its framing as a sequel to his beloved debut, Doggystyle. Snoop Dogg even brought Dr. Dre back to handle the lion’s share of the production. Missionary has been teased for a few years now, but all signs point to the album coming out soon. Snoop himself lent credence to this theory when he recently spoke at the Bloomberg Screen Conference in Los Angeles. He also revealed some of the features, and believe us when we say they are surprising.

Snoop Dogg claimed that Missionary will be the album that will allow him to bring the curtain down on his illustrious career. He’s become such a brand name, that the notion of him stepping back from music isn’t that surprising. “This new record is gonna put me in a position to probably have that final big stadium tour,” he explained. “Cause there’s a lot of features on this record that I’m excited about that are big-name artists.” Naturally, Snoop was asked which big-name artists are set to appear on the album.

Snoop Dogg Has Wanted A Sting Collab For Decades

It would have been logical to assume that Snoop Dogg would have opted for big-name rappers. But no, he decided to branch out and link up with some pop names. “I got a feature from Jelly Roll and Sting,” Snoop said. “I’m so happy that me and Sting got a record that’s so good.” The rapper was particularly thrilled to link up with the former lead singer of The Police. He also admitted that he’s been a fan since he was a child.

“We hung out and we chilled,” Snoop Dogg stated to the audience. “It was like a child that’s infatuated with somebody as a singer. And you get a chance to meet them and they give you everything that you expected.” Sting was similarly complimentive when he talked to BBC Radio 2 about the collaboration. “Me and Snoop made a recording of ‘Message In a Bottle,’ which he’s called something else,” the iconic singer said. “I played the guitar and I sang on it, but Snoop also sings on this, which is quite a revelation to me.” We can’t wait to hear how these two sound on record together.

Top5 Claims He’s Still Doing “Research” To Take Down Kendrick Lamar

by

Top5 is a Drake ride or die. The Toronto artist was recently released from prison, and the first thing he did was thank Champagne Papi. “Shoutout big bro @champagnepapi for the Lawyer Fees & Gary Grill for being the best lawyer in Toronto,” he wrote on Instagram. Top5 has no problem heaping praise on Drizzy. The one thing he seemingly loves more, though, is going after Drake’s enemy, Kendrick Lamar. Top5 has made some extremely bold statements about Kung Fu Kenny over the last few weeks. And he continued to do so on October 10.

Top5 posted footage of him watching the music video for Lamar’s “Not Like Us.” He uploaded the brief clip to his Instagram Story with the caption: “Still doing my homework.” The specificity of the homework is not made clear, nor is Top5’s intent. Given how much he seemingly hates Lamar, though, the update is not surprising. The Toronto artist recently threatened Lamar with violence during an appearance on Late Night With Liyah Mai. He made it clear that K. Dot is not safe in his neck of the woods. “Tell him come to Toronto. Swiss cheese,” he asserted.

Top5 Previously Threatened To Shoot Kendrick Lamar

The threats didn’t stop there. Top5 went into detail with Mai as to how he plans to take down Kendrick Lamar if he ever sees him. “I’ll get the low, put on my Nike tech black,” he claimed. He then, inexplicably, claimed that Lamar’s peer, YG, would help him out. “Tell YG get us a driver, put the window down and get some fresh air.” It was all very aggressive, especially for a beef that has only played out on record. Top5 also included producer Metro Boomin in his offer. Metro, of course, collaborated with Lamar on the song “Like That.”

Hopefully Top5 doesn’t attend 21 Savage’s upcoming birthday party. Drake was invited to the party along with Metro Boomin, marking the first major event that both artists have attended since things popped off. Drake has seemingly made light of this fact on social media. Top5, presumably, will be too busy watching Kendrick Lamar music videos to accompany the 6 God. It’ll be fascinating to see if his research on K. Dot will actually result in some sort of diss record.
