It’s Over. Drake Lost
Perhaps, in several days or weeks or months, Drake will (finally) respond to Pusha T. And maybe that response, when it (finally) happens, will be amazing. “Wow,” we’ll (finally) say to ourselves when we first listen to Drake’s brilliant and witty and petty and perhaps even mean response. “Drake wasn’t playing. He really gave it…

Drake Brought the Cast of Degrassi Back for ‘I’m Upset’ Video
Jimmy is back! Although Drake has pursued a rap career while some of his other Degrassi co-stars have continued acting and others have just disappeared, ole Jimmy and the rest of the cast haven’t forgotten about Degrassi Community School. Drake dropped the visuals to his song “I’m Upset” and paid homage to his Degrassi: The…

Ain’t No Way a Diss Record That Important Doesn’t See the Light of Day in 2018—Unless It Doesn’t Exist
Allegedly, Drake has a diss record in the can that would ruin Kanye West’s career. At least according to J. Prince. I find that a little bit hard to believe, considering I don’t know what Drake could say about Kanye that would do more damage than he seems to be doing himself. He’s got white…

Drake: Is There Really a Career-Ending Clapback to ‘Adidon’? Or Is This a Light-Skinned Way of Saving Face?
So, apparently, the OG homie J. Prince, founder of Rap-a-Lot Records, imparted some sage advice to rapper Drake regarding his ongoing beef with rapper Pusha T and, by proxy, Kanye West. First, the word was that Prince told Drake not to respond; then, over the weekend, that was clarified to mean that he specifically asked…

Drake Flew His ‘Secret Son’ Out on Private Jet for Christmas: Report
Maybe Drake is not as much of a deadbeat as they say. Ever since his whole personal life was blown to bits by Pusha T in “The Story of Adidon,” including the allegation that Drake had fathered a son named Adonis with a former porn star, Sophie Brussaux, the usually verbose and quick-to-clap-back rapper has been…

10 Thoughts About Kanye West’s New Album, Ye
Last night in Wyoming (a four-word sequence I never thought I’d type), in what is probably the most bona fide imagining of “I never thought that hip-hop would take us this far,” Kanye West had a listening session full of celebrities and created the cover art for his remarkably-devoid-of-Trump, eighth solo album, ye. The album…

10 Still-Angry Observations From an NBA Finals Game 1 That Made Me Want to Break Things and Fight People
1. Jordan Clarkson hoops like how the screen would look in the ’90s when you tried watching porn on a pay-per-view channel you didn’t order. 2. I don’t know when exactly the Golden State Warriors became so fucking insufferable, but during Game 1, I realized that I hate them as much as I hate the…

How Drake Can Win the Rap Battle With Pusha T (or at Least Not Lose It)
On Facebook Wednesday, I got into a discussion about whether or not I thought Drake could come back (and maybe even win) from Pusha T’s blistering “The Story of Adidon” diss record, which took disrespect and hip-hop investigative journalism to new levels. I said that I thought he could, he’d just have to be creative.…

Drake Dropping a Press Release During a Rap Battle Is the Whitest Thing That Ever Happened This Week
Although his ’fro might not nap all the way through—and although he’s been filmed saying the n-word in a quite questionable manner—Drake is a black man. There should be no questioning or doubting of that. He was born black and he gonna die black. His daddy is a literal cat daddy who rocks zoot suits…

Pusha T Forced to Remove Drake Blackface Pic From Instagram
The latest in the Drake-Pusha T rap throwdown is that Push had to take down a photo of Drake in blackface after the photographer said that the GOOD Music artist had no right to use the image. Pusha’s response to Drake’s “Duppy Freestyle,” “The Story of Adidon” (itself a response to Pusha’s “Infrared”), has been…
