Canibus Starts and Stops Beef w/ J. Cole

Damn! It’s a sad day in hip-hop. Canibus, who is easily noted as one of my favorite rappers of all time, just recently issued a diss record calling out J. Cole. When I saw the headlines, I ignored them because I assumed it was a slight jab and nothing to really pay attention to. However, after listening – it’s a direct diss and as a Canibus fan, I’m ashamed. I’m not ashamed of the terrible diss record as much as I am of the embarrassing apology that accompanied it. This doesn’t appear to be the same Canibus that went at LL and Eminem. But now that I think about it, even if it were the same Canibus, he’d be no match to the ever-so-relevant J. Cole.

I’m not sure if it was Cole paying homage to Canibus in the interviews that set em off (which makes no sense) or ‘bus feeling he could “make a livin off of dissin.” At the end of the day, the big homie is coppin pleas like he had a cup of humble juice. Coincidentally, he starts his apology with two rather long burps. Oh and get this, he repeats the apology more than Jay and Ye repeats N****s in Paris during the #WTT tour!

#NewMusic: Blizz McFly “Big Dreams, Bright Lights” [DOWNLOAD MIXTAPE]

If he’s not the best, Blizz is definitely apart of the elite few that can claim the ‘Milwaukee’s Best’ title. He’s still as dope as the Blizz McFly character from ‘The Shuttle Approaches’

I Love Hip-Hop Artists, but I Can’t Stand Rappers

Last night I was watching a Chris Rock stand-up special and in it, there’s a part where he says “I love black people. but I can’t stand N@%%$!”

It got me to thinking – I love hip-hop artists, but I can’t stand rappers. Rappers suck – they have a platform to express what’s happening here on the ground in our country and share it with the world, and I ain’t hearing nothing but party and bullshyt! I stay in the A and on the radio stations, I don’t hear any songs about real issues affecting our everyday lives. We’ve got Troy Davis (police brutality), #OccupyWallStreet, unemployment – I mean, damn, aren’t these rappers the same ones screaming “welcome to my hood”? WTF hood do they come from because the ones that I live  and organize in are in a State of Emergency, but listening to these rappers everything is Strip Club Muzic, get as F&*^$# up as you possibly can and kill ni$$@Z after you do it.
