Papoose Drops Some Of The Freshest Bars This Side Of Hip Hop In Funkmaster Flex Freestyle

It’s been a hot minute since Papoose was on the mic, but that doesn’t diminish his ability to destroy bars- in fact the last time he was on with Funkmaster Flex, he and his wife Remy Ma put on a freestyle duet that brought in nearly a million and a half youtube views.

Papoose never truly hit it big, but he’s still one of the most capable lyricists in the game, which he hands down demonstrated again in his most recent Funkmaster Flex freestyle, for nearly seven minutes straight.

A “rappers rapper,” Papoose starts the beat by dropping a few verses on the many issues on the top of the minds across American’s today.

Kaepernick set an example for the NFL, none of them listened, now they all kneelin’ since Trump called em ‘sons of a bitches,” he raps.

Papoose readily admits that he hasn’t had a deal in years, but the fact remains that he’s still “flashin’ jewelry”

Continuing on with modern references, Papoose spits a line including everything from Pennywise from IT, to his #1 “the Queen” Remy Ma.

It may have taken a minute for him to pick up the beat, around the two minute mark is when he really starts to take off.

The flow just kicks off, Papoose drops a few multi’s for the fans, and for all those who are still mourning the loss of lyricism in today’s rap world. If anything is true from Papoose’s time with Flex, it’s that you can count on cats like Papoose to keep the tradition of straight king level lyricism alive.

Yankees Troll LeBron Ahead Of ALDS Indians Matchup

The MLB Division 4 Series is about to get underway, with the Yankees set to face off against the Cleveland Indians tonight at 7:38 ET.

The New York Yankees are officially a wildcard team, but that hasn’t stopped them from preemptively throwing some friendly shade towards their opponents, which just happened to pull LeBron into the mix.

Squaring off on Twitter and showing off the #PinstripePride hashtag, the Yankees twitter account managed to dig up a photo of LeBron with a fitted Yankees from 10 years back, starting off the battle.

Snapped in 2007, the photo was taken when the Yankees faced off against the Indians during an old ALDS matchup in Cleveland. LeBron grew up rooting for the Yankees, although he is an Akron native, and has since shown his support for the Indians by both attending their games and repping their team jersey.

During 2016 LeBron and his Cavs teammates put up word during the Indian’s World Series run-

I’m a supporter of winners,” James said, via the New York Post. “As a kid growing up, I needed inspiration to get out of the situation I was in. I loved the Bulls, Cowboys and loved the Yankees. Those are winning franchises. I liked them because they gave me hope of being a winner. That’s part of the reason I loved those teams but I definitely support what the Indians are doing right now.

So far LeBron has yet to comment on which ALDS team he’s pulling for, and noted Indians fan JR Smith is in a pinch as well.

Tune in tonight to FOX Sports for game coverage, with tomorrow night’s matchup airing on MLB TV at 5:08pm ET.

SZA Brings Out Travis Scott At Houston Concert

SZA has been on a rampage, tearing up the stage with one of the hottest tours on track right now- this isn’t the first time she’s brought up Travis Scott to perform, but for the people of Houston, this was perhaps the best moment they’ve had in a month or so.

One fan made his wishes known with a tweet to the R&B songstress- ask and you shall receive.

That vibe you get when the whole crowd is lit and just the passion that flows is incredible. Performing “Love Galore” together, even if Travis Scott is brought out again chances are you’re not going to get the same feel from the crowd as last night.

“Love Galore” has been in the news recently as well; recently “Love Galore” went platinum, which is big news for the artist whom almost missed out on stardom to begin with CTRL. SZA teased a unreleased verse to the piece in an Instagram post- “Bodak Yellow” and “The Race” have already received the remix love, so it’s not inconceivable that SZA’s massively popular track wouldn’t receive the same treatment.

If you didn’t get a chance to see SZA and Travis Scott last night in concert, there’s still time- the CTRL tour goes through December 17th.

Future Argues There’s No Future In Sounding The Same As Other Rappers

What ultimately makes an artist great? Is it their ability to produce, is it the lyrics they spit? Is it their sound, unlike anything else that’s mainstream at the minute?

With all the rappers that have popped up in the last few years, many of them have tried to emulate Future’s unique sound- there’s only one Future though, and there’s a reason he’s the king of his genre. In a talk with HighSnobiety, Future puts forth the argument that there’s no longevity in sounding like someone else.

Going over topics from his charity work, work ethic, gap and more, one of the most interesting topics of the interview was Future’s prolific nature, and his ability to seemingly steer the direction the hip hop industry has gone in recent years. With so many artists trying to imitate him, it makes sense that he has the ability to influence them.

The thing is, sampling a genre is one deal, but defining your own is something else entirely. This is a crux of Future’s discussion, and a driving force as to why he’s been able to stay on top for so long.

Being yourself musically is the most important thing because if you think your shit ain’t working and stop trying and then somebody else tries it and it starts working for them, you’re going to be mad.” He said “Some people try to be everybody, so that’s why they burn out. There’s longevity in being yourself and not trying to be 10 other people.

Future’s success is just sticking with the studio and continuing to create.

I’m always making music. I feel like that’s the key. Music will change in just three months, so if I go to Europe for a whole three months and come back, the music scene will be completely different. I just try to stay in tune with what’s going on: I keep my eyes open for the new artists, listen to new melodies on the radio; pay attention to the tempos playing in the clubs,” he says.

Still, the kind of work ethic Future has isn’t for everyone- he’s a perfectionist, just like Em and Jay, these guys are on top for a reason.

I got in an argument with a dude, he really got mad because I wouldn’t let the engineer leave the studio. He got mad at me, but he wasn’t complaining, he was scared. He was like, “Yo, that shit ain’t right, that shit ain’t right. You just had him recording you for a whole fucking week, he never even went outside.” Future said.

Tyler The Creator Has N Emotional Moment When Hearing “See You Again” On The Radio

Sometimes all the sweat and tears you put into a project all pay off when you hear it on the radio, what being Humble is all about. No matter how big you get, there’s something about how Tyler the Creator breaks and shows excitement when hearing “See You Again” on the radio.

This year the Creator has had one of his most prolific years, both in and out of the studio. He’s been everywhere from a new beat for Bill Nye Saves The World, a new animated series, new “How It’s Made” esque series, and of course his Flower Boy album dropping.

Debuting at #2 on the Billboard charts, Flower Boy received praise from fans a critics alike- to date the project is arguably his most successful album, and from the notably private rapper hearing your own work has to feel good.

Check out his Instagram post; shaking his head in stunned silence for a minute, Tyler eventually breaks and just mutters “I’m so happy” in a rare moment of unadulterated bliss.

Tyler performed “See You Again” live with Kali Uchis on The Tonight Show at the end of last month, with an assist from smooth violin and mood lighting to give off the feel Tyler was hoping for.

Amusingly enough, originally “See You Again” was meant for Zayn, the former One Direction member after he heard a remix of “PillowTalk” – unfortunately after Zayn bailed twice on recording times, Tyler kept the record for himself. All the better; who knows how it would have turned out, out of his creative hands.

Kevin Love Reportedly To Start At Center For Cav’s 2017 Season

Two weeks from now the Cleveland Cavalier will start their 2017 season; in that time Kevin Love will start at center, while Tristan Thompson will get time off the bench.

Jason Lloyd of The Athletic has reported that the Cavs plan to start Love in center instead of Thompson, meaning Jae Crowder will start at the power forward position.

As part of the trade that sent Kyrie Irving to the Celtics, the Cavs Crowder, 27; additionally David Aldridge has reported that Thompson is ok with coming off bench.

Until Isaiah Thomas is healthy enough to return, Derrick Rose will start the Cavs at point guard. After suffering a nasty hip injury, Thomas has been on the sidelines for the last several months, with some reports even suggesting that he may be out until the NBA All-Star break in February.

No surprise but Dwayne Wade wil be starting alongside LeBron James; with this info the starting lineup for the Cavs will likely look like Dwayne Wade, Derrick Rose, LeBron James, Jae Crowder, Kevin Love and complimented with JR Smith & Tristan Thompson coming off bench.

Crowder averaged 13.9 points and 5.8 boards, but the real benefit that often isn’t shown in stats is his ability to defend against a wide range of players. The Cavs will start their 2017 season at home on October 17th, against a new and improved Boston Celtics.

Kylie Jenner And Travis Scott Have Already Reportedly Spent More Than $70K On Their Baby

Kylie Jenner has already reportedly dropped more than $70,000 on their unborn baby in merchandise- the thing is that at this point, it’s all still rumors.

TMZ reports that Kylie has been making a string of high end baby purchases- online purchases is a safe choice for many celebs so they can actually dodge the paparazzi and lead something akin to a normal life, but that likely isn’t an option for someone who’s actually made a fortune exposing her every dya life to the public.

Normally these stars would be all over social with any big information, but both of their social accounts have remained silent on the topic, prompting many people to even wonder if there will be a baby to begin with.

While Kylie has been busy with retail therapy, Travis Scott has been busy making music- at a recent Migos show, Quavo hopped on a remix of Scott’s “Butterfly Effect” that doesn’t front the best quality, but does suggest that the quick lyrics were unplanned;

Young nigga, who are you/ Must be bulletproof/ this shit bigger than you, this shit bigger than you/ VIP my squad, drop off all the gang/ VIP lane, VIP chain

All this could be hinting at the upcoming album Travis and Quavo worked on, hinted at by Quavo last month.

The album with Travis Scott is going to drop real real soon, we been making a whole buncha records, we got like 20 records together. We just need some time to sort em out
