The script down her arm?

I dont like tattoos either but I barely notice that on her, it's hardly Rihanna levels of ink.

Yeah. No matter the size or location of the ink (unless it was literally a dot on a chick's wrist, but who does that), my mind refuses to be sexually attracted to anyone with tattoos, no matter how hot the rest of the girl is.

I'm cool with people getting tatted up. Tattoos just aren't my cup of tea for attraction.

Not really rap music but I've been loving Janelle Monae's new record SZA's from last year. Not usually what I'd listen to but have had both on repeat of late.

Just listened to The Story of Adidon by Pusha T. It's a counter diss to the counter diss track drake released a few days ago.

I'm sorry but Pusha T has taken this to a whole new level of disrespect as hes gone super personal (although he was provoked but not on this level).

Drake just got kicked in his heart. RIP Drake fans

Drake in Blackface though.

How do you even respond to something like this?

Will he acknowledge his alleged hidden child?

It will he awkward if he does and even more awkward if he doesn't.

Moment of silence for AFC10 as his idol goes through this difficult time.

Absolutely peak for Drake right now. Pusha went off the standard diss topics and attacked the image, absolute hero.

At this stage, drake might need to drop a whole album to try and respond but it might not be enough.

Hiphop may not be dead, but the art of MC'ing definitely is. It's not about being a wordsmith anymore, or having clever metaphors and similes. It seems like it's more about saying the same shit over and over to a stolen beat.

Damn right.

People now cream over auto-tune merchants ffs.

It's now a question of which rapper will out-sh** the other with his next album.

There's this particular worshipped auto-tune merchant who tries to skate during one of his 'concerts'. He did't get further than making a sloppy drop of off a quarter pipe followed outright sketchy rock-to-faky.

One of the cringiest things to ever occur on-stage; If a random kid who just started skateboarding does this, no-one (other than maybe his overseeing mom) would care.

Don't be deceived by sales, game's never been more dead. Never before you've had to make your way through so much muck produced by fake funkers in order to find material that really stands out.

Sadly I agree. Today's scene is just like everything else, watered down and pandering to the lowest common denominator.

People are making millions from maling bird calls on choruses ffs.

I always think back to an old Dave Chappelle and mos def skit from season 1(?) of his show when he was parodying the rap game. Fast forward some years and now there's online arguments over which of the various hype men can make the best sound effect adlibs.

It's just sad to see an art form reduced to mumbling and very little substance.

At least this Pusha T response reminded me of that raw callous energy created by 'hit em up'.

Glad some agree, cause I was thinking that maybe I'm just old now and don't understand today's hiphop. I really try to listen and like it, but if I'm honest, it's mostly just shit.

I still just recycle my old lineup of artist for the most post. I love some of the big names from back in the day of course, but I was always that guy that would listen to a bunch of underground stuff too. Even though most of those UG MC's didn't have catchy beats, and choruses, some still had some very good wordplay and flows that I loved. To me it was always more about the lyrics, and how clever and technical your word play is. Just always what I've been drawn to.

Drake in 2009: "Wayne if you're on Mars, can you pick me up from Jupiter?" Aubrey better tap into that Jupiter energy if he responds.

Someone on Reddit said Pusha T should adopt the child, release an album cover of the kid riding a bike, and drop a track called "Your son calls me Dad".

Loooooool could you imagine? Absolute career ender.

Lil Wayne was the last great one, and his peak was almost 10 years ago.

Kendrick is a historically great rapper, but the current generation as a whole is largely lacking. The times have simply changed.
