El Chapo Maybe Heading To Supermax!

Trap god heading to the United States. It's thanks to an unwilling patsy named Sean Penn.

Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, the world's most dangerous drug lord could be heading to the United States to face trial. There's just one condition, he has to be sentenced to LIFE in federal time out if he's convicted of drug trafficking and murder charges.

The Mexican government agreed with U.S. law officials to hand over El Chapo if the death penalty is taken off the board.

Mexico's Foreign Relations Department has ruled that the extradition of convicted drug lord to the United States can go forward, the AP reports. The process can still be appealed, meaning it could be weeks or months before the Sinaloa cartel leader may be sent north. Guzman's lawyers now have 30 days to appeal the decision.

Guzman's capture came right after a controversial interview with actor/activist Sean Penn.

Penn got clearance to interview the drug lord. The U.S. government got word of the interview and pegged him. Penn unaware he was being tracked, led the Mexican and American authorities to the trap spot where El Chapo was plotting an escape.

Guzman is the trap lord of the Sinolas, a domestic terrorist group that has ties to California, Arizona, Texas and Florida.

Guzman would be heading to Florence, Colorado, the Alcatraz of the Rockies, the country's most secured facility. Some of the world's most dangerous terrorists and criminals are located there.

50 Cent Admits He Has Half-a-Brain!



When 50 Cent came to Dayton to promote his Effin Vodka, he took a flight out of Cincinnati.

The rapper was at the Cincinnati Northern Kentucky International Airport in Erlanger, Kentucky.

He shares some of his daily routine on social media and his fans love it.

The rapper whipped out a camera and started filming a worker. He decided to rim on the worker.

The rapper was dumping on a worker by accused him of being high. He said that airport worker Andrew Farrell looks like he's high and retarded. He publicly humiliated the worker on social media.

He was unaware that the worker was autistic.

The capo of The Unit now faces a national backlash from the junk food media for his childish behavior. He managed to get his vodka pulled off the shelves of liquor stores.

He also got tongue lashed by those in the entertainment community for being such an ass.
50 Cent was using his iPhone to mock a Cincinnati airport worker.
50 admits that he's an idiot and released a press statement telling the public he was sorry for acting a fool at the airport. He wrote the apology to Andrew saying it wasn't his intentions to insult a man doing his job.

Farrell said that 50's actions were ignorant and he wants the rapper to meet him at a center for autistic children. So far, no word on 50 making any other appearance since the controversy.

At the local Arrow Spirits and Wine, the owner decided that he's not going to be associated with the rapper's products after he posted that on social media. He thanked 50 for coming to Dayton to give autographs to the shoppers but he doesn't want that reputation to hang on his store.


Who is the most dumbest rapper?

Tyga
Chris Brown
Meek Mill
50 Cent
Kanye West
Future
poll creator


So as you see above, a poll. I added a few new entities to this poll. After all, last poll clearly went to Tyga as being the most dumbest rapper.

Will 50 Cent steal the thunder from Tyga?

BeyHive Going After Rachel Roy For Tagging Jay!

Celebrity fashion designer accused of having an affair with Jay-Z. Rachel Roy got stung by the BeyHive.

Don't mess with the BeyHive. They will sting you....and they never forget!

Queen Bey celebrates another platinum album. The album Lemonade was declared platinum this weekend. The album is a hit. Of course, the album is filled with cryptic messages aimed at several individuals.

One person singled out is her husband, rapper/media mogul Shawn Corey Carter, known to the world as Jay-Z.

A fashion designer was singled out as the alleged mistress in Beyonce's album. The rumors are spreading and the junk food media is covering the cheating allegations by Jay-Z.

Rachel Roy is getting stung by the BeyHive after her name turned up in the little black book.

Beyonce released her new visual album on Saturday, entitled "Lemonade." In some of the lyrics, Beyonce refers to Jay Z’s mistress as "Becky with the good hair."
Bey is going to hammer the Jiggaman if cheating allegations are proven true.
Fans token Rachel Roy as "Becky".

Fans came for Rachel Roy after her Instagram post, saying she taunted Beyonce. Roy caption said, "good hair don't care, but we will take good lighting, for our selfies, or self truths, always."

Roy who was married to Jay-Z's former partner Dame Dash is under scrutiny for having multiple affairs. Roy's alleged affair with Jay-Z caused Dash and her to split up. Dash is suing for custody of his children and breach of contract in their joint business venues.

Jay-Z had alleged affairs with Mya, celebrity agitator Free and Rihanna.

His cheating affairs may have been the reason why Queen Bey's sister Solange gave the Jigga man a five finger roll.

Birdman Flaps His Wings At The Breakfast Club!



Looks like The Breakfast Club has a new "Donkey of the Day".

Cash Money's CEO Bryan "Baby" Williams who goes by the rap name Birdman made the news this week. His ignorance was live and direct on the FM agitators program. They let the mic goes live.

Birdman goes to The Breakfast Club to whine about the hosts giving his rivals Rick Ross and Trick Daddy airtime. The rappers agreed that Birdman screwed Lil' Wayne over the scrapped Tha Carter V.

Birdman decided to pay Angie Yee, DJ Envy and Charlamagne Tha God a visit.

Birdman who is an affiliate with the Bloods, a domestic terrorist group (street gang) gave Charlamagne a warning shot. He said, "I'm pulling up on you, nigga!!"
Ignorance from media mogul Bryan "Baby" Williams, known as rapper Birdman.
Charlamagne said that the media mogul's actions were unacceptable and told him to exit stage right.

Birdman's interview will go down in history as one of the shortest interviews in the show's history.

The antics went viral and now the hip-hop community condemned the media mogul for his behavior.

The Breakfast Club did an official ban of the media mogul after this.

Birdman since apologized.

Birdman is under federal watch. The feds are watching him. They believe that he's involved in domestic terrorism through his affiliation with The Bloods. They still want to ask him questions about Lil' Wayne's bus being shot up in Atlanta. Young Thug's manager was indicted on the shooting. He's squawking to the feds about the Birdman and Thugger's antics.

Keyshia Cole made the news last year after she acted a fool in Birdman's home. Cole was rumored to be involved with the 47-year old media mogul.

The Cash Money empire is struggling right now. Drake is working on his final album with the Young Money/Cash Money label. The Views from the 6 is slated for release soon. Drake is working on establishing his OVO Sound acts.
Charlamange Tha God, Angela Yee and DJ Envy host the celebrity agitation program The Breakfast Club.
Nicki Mianj is focusing on her career. Her troubled relationship with Meek Mill is starting to wane.

Ms. Nicki's going to make a debut in the Barbershop sequel with Ice Cube, Common, Anthony Anderson and Eve.

2 Chainz did a solidarity album with Lil' Wayne. Collegrove was a success. Weezy couldn't get the credit because Cash Money blocked his namesake from the release. Def Jam released it as a 2 Chainz solo.

Bill O'Reilly's recent statements about Black people not getting jobs because they have tattoos on their foreheads seems to be aimed at Lil' Wayne, Gucci Mane, Birdman, Soulja Boy and Young Thug.

Many in the entertainment industry dismissed O'Reilly as an ignorant bigot. O'Reilly since clarified his comments.

The Breakfast Club is on Revolt TV and many syndication radio networks. It's locally on Power 105.1 FM, an iHeartMedia station during the hours of 6am - 11am.

Post Malone Gave Justin Bieber A Reality Check!

While on tour, Post Malone puts his hands on Justin Bieber's neck. The rapper told the junk food media they were just playing.

Post Malone who had the hit single "White Iverson" made him a household name. Now giving the Biebs a neck brace is legendary. The Dallas rapper was allegedly placed his hand on the neck of Canadian entertainer Justin Bieber.

Biebs was being an asshole as usual. He decides to put a cigarette out on Post Malone.

TMZ reported that Justin Bieber had mischievously ashed a cigarette on Post Malone while he was performing his hit, "White Iverson," at a Houston club. As far as we could tell from the clip, Malone seemed unbothered by the move, or perhaps he's just a good showman and withheld the pain until after his performance-- because a new photo tells a slightly different story.
Justin Bieber looks like the holy ghost got him. Nah, that's his buddy Post Malone after he flick a square on him.
The junk food media went bonkers. Matter of fact, people were trashing on Post for being "rough" on him.

Post said that they were just playing. No feud.

In the clip, taken on a mobile phone, Justin can be seen grinning after the shocking incident - which took place as the pair partied with the Biebs’ very large entourage following his sold out show in Houston on April 9.

Responding to the picture on Twitter, Post said: "I love Justin y'all tripping lol.

"He's my big brother and we like to rough house. If we was fighting someone would have done something instead of just sit around while the Biebs gets chokeslammed.

"End of story I love jus more than life and the mixtape is on the precipice of release. God bless my fans."

They are currently on the Purpose Tour. Bieber is currently on tour with Post Malone. The incident happened while they were in Houston.

T'yanna Wallace, the daughter of Biggie Smalls.

T'yanna Wallace, the daughter of the greatest MC of all time calls out Sean "Puffy" Combs.

She was totally out of the loop when Diddy didn't invite her to a celebration concert for her father.

T'yanna is the daughter of the Notorious B.I.G., a Brooklyn based rapper/producer who rose to critical acclaim after releasing Ready to Die and put Combs's label Bad Boy on the map.

She took to social media to slam the media mogul for being being a liar and fake ass punk for not including her and mother Jan Jackson. Biggie also had a son with Faith Evans named Christopher Wallace, Jr, known as CJ.

Diddy quickly reached out to her. He said that his made a mistake and he will invite T'yanna and her family to the concert. T'yanna scrubbed her social media posts and told the junk food media, everything is cool.
CJ Wallace. The son of late rapper Notorious B.I.G. and Faith Evans.
The Notorious B.I.G. (born Christopher George Latore Wallace) won praise and respect among most MCs. He also got entangled into a huge feud with Tupac Shakur and his label Death Row. The junk food media labeled their feud the East Coast vs. West Coast hip-hop war. It ultimately ended in the death of Tupac Shakur in Las Vegas in September 1996.

Biggie Smalls as he was also known was murdered in Los Angeles after leaving a hip-hop awards party in March 1997. Some say that the death was a retaliation killing and the murders of both Biggie and 'Pac still remain unsolved.

His last living album Life After Death came out a few days later.

T'yanna was only three years old when her father was gunned down. CJ was only a few month old when his father was gunned down.

The rapper would have been 44-years old if he was alive today. His birthday was on May 20.

T'yanna is a graduate from Penn State.

Hamburger Helper Actually Made A Mixtape!

Hamburger Helper releases Watch The Stove on iTunes.

General Mills releases an actual mixtape.

Watch The Stove is actually a mixtape released by Lefty, the Hamburger Helper mascot. It's a good mixtape. As an April Fool's Prank, the company wanted to give Lefty some real beef.

The title is a mocking of Jay-Z and Kanye West's album Watch The Throne.

It takes a shot at Meek Mill. Because remember in July, the Philly rapper was engaged in a serious rap beef with Drake. Drake served him hard. And General Mills couldn't resist making Meek Mill the butt of their promotional campaign. General Mills reached out to music manager/educator Craig Rice for help putting the project together. Rice, a teacher at McNally Smith College of Music in Minnesota and had Toki Wright as the performer of the mixtape.
In the mix, Lefty recording the mixtape.
Wright is an established hip-hop artist having released albums with Rhymesayers, Wright is also the Department Head of the nation’s first fully accredited Hip-hop Studies Diploma and Minor Program at the school. Jumping at the chance to get his students involved in a project that could reach a large audience, they got to work.




Now I am going to be strictly honest about it. It's a creative and yes controversial way to sell a product.



Stay fed, people!

The Unlucky 7: Botched Robbery Of Lottery Winner Turned To Murder!

Craigory Burch, Jr. was murdered by people who he thought were his friends.

The Georgia law enforcement agencies are investigating the death of a lottery winner. Seven individuals broke into the home of the man and his family. They would end up attacking the family and killing the man.

Now they're being served in the death of Craigory Burch, Jr.

The Atlanta area man won nearly $500,000 in the state lottery. He was a struggling father of three and had worked a few jobs before luck struck him. He and his girlfriend Jasmine Hendricks were grateful to the community.

He was celebrating the Christmas holiday by donating gifts to charity. Someone got wind of the man's good fortunes. They decided to master a plan to extort money from Craigory.

So seven people would end up breaking into his home. Some were armed with firearms.

Investigators believe three masked people broke into a home under the cover of late-night darkness on Jan. 20. Authorities believe they aimed to rob Burch of his lottery winnings, WALB reported.
The Unlucky Seven.
The suspects were identified as Rosalyn Swain, 22; Keyona Dyous, 24; Earnest Holcomb, 27; Wayan Jordan, 17; Dabrentis Overstreen, 19; Nathaniel Baker, 28; and Anjavell Johnson, 21, according to WFXL.

Ben Hill County Sheriff Bobby McLemore told the news station more arrests were expected but the attack appeared to be targeted and not random.

All seven suspects were charged with malice murder, armed robbery, aggravated assault and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime, WALB reported.

Burch's friends said he worked as a forklift operator and used some of his lottery winnings to buy Christmas presents for those in need. Jasmine told WALB he pleaded with his attackers before they fatally shot him.

"When they came in, he said, 'Don't do it, bro. Don't do it in front of my kids. Please don't do it in front of my kids and old lady. Please don't do that, bro. Please don't,'" Hendricks said.

Six of the suspects were being held in Ben Hill County Jail Monday. The remaining suspect was in custody in Colquitt County, according to WALB.

The suspects are innocent until proven guilty.

World News Today send our condolences to the Craigory Brunch.

A hip-hop legend passed away. The Associated Press reports that Phife Dawg of the rap group A Tribe Called Quest had passed away at the age of 45 today.

He was battling diabetes. He's been going through kidney treatment for most of his life.

Born Malik Isaac Taylor, the rapper grew up in Queens with fellow rappers, Q-Tip, Jabori and their producer Ali.

Phife stood at 5'3'' and was known by many as the Five Foot Assassin. He collaborate with the likes of De La Soul, the Jungle Brothers, the Native Tongues and Leaders of the New School.

Although an official cause of death has yet to be announced, the magazine notes that Phife had suffered from various health issues, including diabetes that spurred a 2008 kidney transplant. "It's really a sickness," Phife said in an interview for an ATCQ rap documentary by actor/director Michael Rapaport. "Like straight-up drugs. I'm just addicted to sugar."

He also released one solo album, Ventilation: Da LP, in 2000 and had been working on a new album, Give Thanks, due out this year.
Ali, Phife and Q-Tip are A Tribe Called Quest.
A Tribe Called Quest released five albums before disbanding. They had a minor fallout over management and the label Jive Records. Q-Tip and Phife hadn't spoke in eight years.

The rap group reunited in 2004 when Wu-Tang Clan's Ol' Dirty Bastard passed away. They appeared together for the tribute to the troubled rapper.

The group went on tour for a brief moment and it sold out shows. The last time the rap group reunited was their recent appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. The group performed "Can I Kick It?" which was their first TV performance in 15 years.

E! Online has compiled social media tributes to the late rapper from fans, friends, and industry icons, including hip-hop magnate Russell Simmons, who tweeted, "Damn. #RIPPhife one of the greatest to bless the mic," and Public Enemy rapper Chuck D, who posted, "Rest In Beats PHIFE ATCQ Forever."

Mark Zuckerberg Warns Facebook Workers To Stop Scratching Out #BlackLivesMatter!

Facebook CEO doesn't like trolling. He laid the hammer on trolls working at his company.

The CEO of the largest social media network lays the hammer on employees. He warned the workers that if you have bias towards civil rights, you have no place with Facebook.

In Menlo Park, California, Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg told his employees on Wednesday to stop crossing out #BlackLivesMatter with #alllivesmatter. 

An internal memo was sent across the company from Zuckerberg acknowledging that employees have in fact crossed out the slogan and replaced it with another.

The memo was posted on a private company announcement page on Facebook and obtained by technology blog Gizmodo.

In the memo, Zuckerberg made it clear that he found the practice unacceptable in another meeting and that he is disappointed that this has continued to happen since then.

There have been several recent instances of  people crossing out 'black lives matter' and writing 'all lives matter on the walls at MPK.

"Despite my clear communication at Q&A last week that this was unacceptable, and messages from several other leaders from across the company, this has happened again.I was already very disappointed by this disrespectful behavior before, but after my communication I now consider this malicious as well.

"There are specific issues affecting the black community in the United States, coming from a history of oppression and racism. 'Black lives matter' doesn't mean that other lives don't -- it's simply asking that the black community also achieves the justice they deserve.
Mark Zuckerberg warns workers not to stifle people posting on the company's wall.
"We've never had rules around what people can write on our walls -- we expect everybody to treat each other with respect. Regardless of the content or location, crossing out something means silencing speech, or that one person's speech is more important than another's. Facebook should be a service and a community where everyone is treated with respect.

"This has been a deeply hurtful and tiresome experience for the black community and really the the entire Facebook community, and we are now investigating the current incidents.

"I hope and encourage people to participate in the 'Black@' town hall on 3/4 to educate themselves about what the Black Lives Matter movement is about."

Two percent of Facebook's employees are black, according to the latest data released by the company. Fifty five percent are white, 36 percent are Asian and 4 percent are Hispanic.

Time reported that the company began an anti-bias course for employees last August to promote diversity.

The Feds End "Perk Time" In Georgia's Iron College!

The feds end the partying at Georgia's iron colleges. Interns and correction guards were indicted in drug trafficking, contraband and kickbacks.

The feds ended a string of corruption at many of Georgia's iron colleges.

About 46 members of the Georgia Department of Corrections are facing some federal time out. There were raids at multiple iron colleges. 

The raid involved guards, medical officials and inmates smuggling contraband, drug trafficking and slide backs (i.e. gifts and prostitutes) into the iron college.

These workers of the iron college would look the other way when it came to violent encounters, rape, contraband smuggling, and furrows. If it wasn't for their need for greed, they would have gotten away with this. The feds don't play when it comes to corruption in law enforcement. 

The feds found cellphones, heroin, and cocaine bundles being shipped out without the warden or the law's skeptical eye.

The Department's Office of Professional Standards says that they arrested five officers after the FBI done a undercover sting. 

"It's truly troubling that so many corrections officers from across Georgia could be so wiling to sell their oaths to sell their badges for personal profit., said U.S. Attorney John Horn.

The Feds and state boys entered the Dooly Iron College at the crack of dawn. They performed a shakedown of the entire facility in search of contraband, alcohol, cellphones, weapons and drugs.

These groups had ties to the Mexican cartel. The cartel gave the correction guards everything they wanted. The only thing they were missing was the informant who was interned from a neighboring state. That informant watched patiently as the guards were giving interns the contraband. 

Governor Nathan Deal, the Republican of the state is also facing federal watch for allegations of corruption. He has no comment on this scandal as of yet. But it's expected.

Junk Food Media Shames Cam Newton For Being Human!

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton walked out of a presser. He was upset over the Superbowl 50 loss.

The disappointment was written on NFL quarterback Cam Newton's face. The Carolina Panthers were defeated by the Denver Broncos in Superbowl L. Newton was clearly disappointed in the loss.

He stormed out of the presser when they continued to ask him about his strategy.

The newly crowned league MVP walked out on reporters after answering only a handful of questions, mostly with short answers, following the 24-10 loss. He did so while wearing the hood of a black hoodie pulled over his head.

The junk food media now blasted him for being a "sore loser".

Of course, this is how they paint Black men when they're expressing emotions. They want Black men to never cry. They want Black men to show gratitude towards being defeated.

They believe that Cam's behavior shows "uppity" or "cockiness". They wanted him to take it down a notch.
Legendary moves for Carolina's Cam Newton.
ESPN News reports that Newton is taking the loss with dignity and doesn't appreciate people making his emotions a "big deal".

"I've been on record to say I'm a sore loser,'' Newton said Tuesday as players cleaned out their lockers. "Who likes to lose? You show me a good loser and I'm going to show you a loser. It's not a popularity contest. I'm here to win football games.''

Newton said if he offended anyone, "that's cool."

He added: "But I know who I am and I'm not about to conform nor bend for anybody's expectations because your or anybody else's expectations will never exceed mine."

Newton hasn't spoken to the media in his previous four seasons on exit day, but he felt compelled to talk Tuesday amid the criticism. He said there were no regrets about how he handled himself after the loss.

"It happened,'' he said. "I didn't want to talk to the media at the time. The truth of the matter is I really still don't want to talk to the media. But at the end of the day, things have to happen.

"I had a lot of time to go back and play everything back. I'm human. I never once said that I was perfect. I never proclaimed that I was perfect, but at the end of the day, people pick and do things of that sort.''

Carolina coach Ron Rivera said criticism of Newton was unfair. While he might have preferred Newton handle the postgame differently, he didn't ask his quarterback to speak to the media on Tuesday.

Rivera commended Newton for that.

"Obviously somebody had a great conversation with him and explained it to him and he was able to compose himself and speak to you folks,'' he said. "That's huge. What he did today was a part of his growth. He is still growing and maturing as a man in this world.''

Asked why Newton is a target for criticism, Rivera said because people "don't know him.''
Mutual respect for Payton Manning.
"If you took the time to know who Cam Newton is, if you saw all the things that he did, there would be much more of an appreciation for who he is as a person,'' Rivera said.

"People draw something on a snapshot. Don't take a snapshot. Take the whole album. Take time to read the whole book. ... This is a young man that some people are looking at the cover and they're looking at it the wrong way.''

General manager Dave Gettleman, in talking about Newton's postgame behavior, said one of the things he looks for in a player is somebody who "hates to lose.''

"We all handle things differently,'' he said. "It's hard.''

Several teammates gathered around Newton while he spoke and shouted "We love you!'' They also playfully sang: "Hurray for Cam! Hurray for Cam! Hurray for Cam, he's a horse's ass.''

One of those was fullback Mike Tolbert. He agreed with Rivera that criticism of Newton has been unfair.

"He's a competitor just like everybody else,'' Tolbert said. "You look at the guy. He's not happy at all about what happened. I'm not happy about what happened. I don't think anybody that played in this game was happy about what happened.

"So why should we be all smiles when the game is over?''

Newton smiled at his teammates' support, but otherwise was defiant in his defense of himself. "The truth of the matter is, who are you to say your way is right?'' he said. "That's what I don't understand. We've got all these people condemning, and saying he shouldn't have done this, that and the third. What makes your way right?''

Newton also was defiant in vowing the Panthers will return to the Super Bowl, reminding everyone they had only two losses all season, while some teams lost their first two games.

"I've got no more tears to cry,'' Newton said. "At the end of the day, when you invest so much time and sacrifice so much and things don't go as planned, the emotions take over. That's what happens.

"As far as trying to be like this person, trying to be like that person ... the truth of the matter is I'm not trying to be like this person.''

Newton said the league is great with him or without him, and that he doesn't plan to change.

"I said it since day one, I am who I am, I know what I'm capable of and I know where I'm going,'' Newton said. "I don't have to conform to anybody else's wants for me to do. I'm not that guy."

Newton also defended himself for not diving to try to recover his fumble in the fourth quarter that eventually was recovered by the Broncos. Denver went on to score a touchdown to put the game out of reach. Newton said that he would have risked injury by diving, as it would have meant he would have had to twist his leg in an awkward direction.

"I didn't get the fumble,'' Newton said. "We can play tit for tat. I've seen numerous quarterbacks throw interceptions, and the effort afterwards ... they don't go. I don't dive on one fumble, because of the way my leg was, it could have been [contorted] in a way.

"We didn't lose that game because of that fumble. I can tell you that.''

EVOLution Is The Future!

You hang with winners, you become a winner. Future releases EVOL on iTunes.

Another album release coming out. Besides Wiz Khalifa who drops Khalifa on Friday, here comes Atlanta's codeine obsessed trap rapper, Future. He releases on iTunes the follow-up to DS2, called EVOL. 

It will be released at 11:59pm.

The album comes fresh off his collaboration with Drake (What A Time To Be Alive) and the Purple Reign mixtape that was released earlier this year. 

Future also took a potshot at fellow trap rapper Young Thug. Thug was pissed that Future released his album around the time he releases Slim Season 3.
EVOL is Love.
This was a sleeper feud but it's boiling to the surface again. Young Thugger was pissed that Metro Boomin' (Future's long time producer) scrapped a few songs off the canceled Tha Carter VI mixtape.

The song "I Mean" was Young Thug. The song from Drake & Future "Live from the Gutter" had the same beat that Metro produced.

Thugger was none too happy that Metro took flat shots at him for releasing Slime Season 1 and 2 last year. Metro and Thugger went into a Twitter finger fight and Future stuck up for Metro.

Ever since, Future and Thug been trading insults subliminal on their mixtapes. 


Thugger responds to the sneak diss.


Future shades Thugger.


Thugger responds back.


Now, Future had teamed up with Apple to have his music released on Beats Radio, a division of Apple Music. Future has been treating fans with a lot of new music lately. The 32-year-old rapper released three mixtapes in 2015, including "Beast Mode," "56 Nights," and "What A Time To Be Alive." 

The rapper premiered In Abundance and Fly Shit Only. The album tracks will be released on DJ Khaled's radio show.

Future will be able to perform some of the new songs off "EVOL" on his upcoming tour with Ty Dolla $ign. On Feb. 17, Future's "Purple Reign" tour will kick off in Madison, Wisconsin, and will run through March 19.

The rapper is following the tradition that was started by Jay-Z. Jay-Z the founder of rival Tidal, released Magna Carta Holly Grail on RocNation through Tidal. And everyone took the task of doing such. 

Hip-hop acts such as Beyonce, Eminem, Drake, Dr. Dre, Lil' Wayne, Kendrick Lamar, Rihanna and of course Future have unexpectedly released albums without little hints. 

You know what I might add Future to the blog.

He was also the older brother of current Earth, Wind & Fire member Verdine White, and former member Fred White.
