The collaboration is a first for the two.
Juicy J also signaled that he will produce a handful of tracks for their album.
TGOD Mafia presents Rude Awakening will be released on Taylor Gang Music through iTunes. The tentative date for release is June 3.

Lil' Kim is facing foreclosure on her New Jersey home after years of blowing off the bills. The $3 million New Jersey home is about to be on the auction block after the rapper failed paying them house payments.
HSBC Bank sued Kimberly Jones to foreclose on the mansion back in 2010, but Kim managed to starve off the foreclosure until late last year, when a judge put her in default.
The home which sits on two acres was paid for $2.2 million with a nearly $1.6 million mortgage, and agreed monthly payments of nearly $10,000 a month.
Lil' Kim and her lawyers have since been trying to save the house through mediation with the bank.
The Queen Bee hasn't paid the loan since 2009 and the bank said enough is enough.
Her home sits in Bergen County, a high class region in Northeastern New Jersey.
Remember back in 2008, Lil' Kim got her Bentley repossessed. The junk food media embarrassed her by appearing at her door. When she had a fallout with her then cocaine partner Scott Storch, he filed for bankruptcy. The repo man came to Kim's home and warned her that she don't pay up, she may face a TMZ moment.
Lil' Kim hasn't released an full length album in 10 years. She had released a mixtape to little fanfare this year. She will appear at the Sean "Puffy" Combs's Bad Boy Reunion tour with Cassie, French Montana and Machine Gun Kelly. The former acts Faith Evans, The Lox (D-Block), Mase and 112 will be there as well.
Lil' Kim has been feuding with a younger and more popular talent since the junk food media called the rival the Queen of Rap.
She basically lost the crown to the young and very popular (for the time being) Nicki Minaj.
Lil' Kim's home is located in Alpine, New Jersey
Nicki Minaj, Iggy Azalea, Dej Loaf, and rap troll Azealia Banks are in demand female rappers.
Kim, Foxy Brown, Eve, Shawnna, Da Brat, Trina and Missy Elliott were once considered the most mainstream female acts of the late 1990s and 2000s. Nowadays, they end up either on reality television or blowing money fast in stupid investments. Eventually, they may end up getting a little buzz on television or radio like Kim's shocking plastic surgery. Many in the Black community criticized her for bleaching her skin White.
Lil' Kim became a first time mother at age 40. Her boyfriend, rapper Mr. Papers is a 30 year old nobody who got famous for knocking the Queen Bee up. Now he's fighting for custody of their child.
To make matter worse, she may not be the only one losing the crib.
DipSet's Juelz Santana isn't rocking with Def Jam anymore. That loan was recalled and he can't keep his crib anymore. He failed at paying them bills and the bank took his home as well.
Afeni Shakur, the mother of the late rapper Tupac Shakur passed away today. The mother who inspired her son for greatness was found dead in her Marin County, California home.
The family confirmed that she passed away from an apparent heart attack.
Shakur was an activist and motivational speaker. She urged rappers to put aside their differences for the sake of the Black community. There was a brutal hip-hop war between the West coast and the East coast. It led to the deaths of her son and his longtime rival the Notorious B.I.G. (Biggie Smalls).
Her name became famous in the 1995 Tupac Shakur single "Dear Mama" off the Me Against the World album.
Afeni Shakur sued Death Row for all of Tupac's music and licensing fees. She was awarded a cache of unreleased music, movie reels and poems from the rapper who many saw as a poetic but yet troubled soul.
Shakur led the fight to get a museum in her son's honor.
The queen of a pride. Afeni Shakur fought to have her son Tupac Shakur's legacy preserved.
Afeni Shakur (born Alice Faye Williams) was an American music businesswoman, philanthropist, political activist and Black Panther. She acted as her own criminal defense attorney after being accused of taking part in numerous bombings as a member of the Panthers.
World News Today send our condolences to the family of Afeni Shakur. The legacy of Tupac Shakur will forever be etched in music history. Afeni, a beautiful woman in the fight for equality in America.
Afeni Shakur you will be missed by me and S. Baldwin.

The album came out at 11:59pm Thursday and many fans went and cop it. The songs were previewed on OVO Radio throughout the day.
Drake teamed up with APPLE Music to have his music exclusively released.
Another thing that is noted about the album. There is no members of Young Money or Cash Money on this album.
So in other words, get the VIEWS.

Many tabloids are speculating that the famed singer was diagnosis with the HIV-virus. They claim that due to the singer's beliefs in medicine, he let it progress into AIDS.
According to sources close to Prince, they said that he was in bad shape. They said that doctors were telling Prince that his blood count was extremely low and his body temperature was dropping below normal.
He was out of place and disoriented. They said when he wanted to eat, he would throw it back up.
When the junk food media captured Prince in the Walgreen's parking lot pacing around, some thought that he looked like he was lost and out of place.
The source claims that Prince attracted the virus in the 1990s and kept the illness private out of fear of rejection.
Prince was a devout Jehovah's Witness and he often would not discuss issues that are negative.
He left no will. Now his family is battling with the record label over how his money and vault of music is going to be distributed. He was cremated on Saturday.
Prince died last Thursday shocking the junk food media.
The National Enquirer has often dished out dirt on many celebrities. It broke the stories of Jesse Jackson, Bill Cosby and John Edwards having illegitimate children.
It broke the story of Ted Cruz having numerous affairs on staffers and people who supported him.
And now Prince with AIDS. I am not surprised that everyone speculates things. But until the bag 'em ups says otherwise, I won't jump to conclusions.
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.
I am sadden by the news of Prince passing away today. The junk food media confirms the news that the legendary entertainer passed away at his home in Paisley Park, Minnesota.
I am still reeling over the news of two major celebrities dying at the same time. We just learned that former WWE wrestler Chyna (Joanie Laurer) passed away at the age of 45. The news of her death was really shocking. I was a huge fan. She was an iconic model, actress and wrestling superstar.
Now the news of Prince passing away will overshadow everything.
TMZ broke the news about 30 minutes ago. Prince known legally as Prince Rogers Nelson -- had a medical emergency on April 15th that forced his private jet to make an emergency landing in Illinois. But he appeared at a concert the next day to assure his fans he was okay. His people told TMZ he was battling the flu.
He was 57 year old. He canceled his shows after complaining about an illness.
The news is traveling across the world.
As expected, President Barack Obama, Minnesota Governor Jonathan Dayton, Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) and Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) will be notified.
I know on a personal level that Prince was what I grew up on. I am an 80s baby. I am certainly amazed that I lived to hear such an iconic voice in our generation.
World News Today send our condolences to the family of this legend of rock, R&B, pop, and funk.
Heaven has a Prince. We will certainly miss him. His name will forever be etched in stone as one of the gods of music.
According to the junk food media, Prince was feeling extremely ill when he was finishing up a tour.
Prince Rogers Nelson passed away today. World News Today send our condolences to the family of this wonderful icon of pop/rock and R&B.
Prince was an American singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and actor and has been a major figure in popular music for over three decades. Prince is renowned as an innovator and is widely known for his eclectic work, flamboyant stage presence, and wide vocal range. He is widely regarded as the pioneer of Minneapolis sound. His music combines rock, R&B, soul, funk, hip hop, disco, psychedelia, jazz, and pop.
Prince was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and developed an interest in music at an early age, writing his first song at age seven. After recording songs with his cousin's band 94 East, 19-year-old Prince recorded several unsuccessful demo tapes before releasing his debut album For You in 1978, under the guidance of manager Owen Husney. His 1979 album Prince went platinum due to the success of the singles "Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad?" and "I Wanna Be Your Lover". His next three records—Dirty Mind (1980), Controversy (1981), and 1999 (1982)—continued his success, showcasing Prince's trademark of prominently sexual lyrics and incorporation of elements of funk, dance, and rock music. In 1984, he began referring to his backup band as The Revolution and released Purple Rain, which served as the soundtrack to his film debut of the same name. A prolific songwriter, Prince in the 1980s wrote songs for and produced work by many other acts, often under pseudonyms.
After releasing the albums Around the World in a Day (1985) and Parade (1986), The Revolution disbanded and Prince released the critically acclaimed double album Sign "O" the Times (1987) as a solo artist. He released three more solo albums before debuting The New Power Generation band in 1991. He changed his stage name in 1993 to an unpronounceable symbol (), also known as the "Love Symbol". He then began releasing new albums at a faster pace to remove himself from contractual obligations to Warner Bros.; he released five records between 1994 and 1996 before signing with Arista Records in 1998. In 2000, he began referring to himself as "Prince" again. He has released 15 albums since then, including his latest, HITnRUN Phase One, which was first released exclusively on the Tidal streaming service on September 7, 2015 before being released on CD on September 15, 2015 by NPG Records.
Prince has sold over 100 million records worldwide, making him one of the best-selling artists of all time.
He has won seven Grammy Awards,a Golden Globe, and an Academy Award.
He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004, the first year of his eligibility.
Rolling Stone has ranked Prince at number 27 on its list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.
Heaven's gift was a Prince. He leaves behind a son.
Canada is looking forward to the future. It's going green. The country is considering legalizing marijuana and it's winning praise in the U.S.
Our neighbor to the north trying to rid itself of the awful legacy of the former conservative prime minister Stephen Harper. The progressives are taking over. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is working overtime and is build bridges with President Barack Obama.
Trudeau said that legislation is well on the way. He said that recreational marijuana could be a reality in the Commonwealth.
Trudeau smoked weed back in his younger days. He's hoping that Parliament will pass a law assuring that any Canadian would not face prison time for smoking the sticky icky.
Washington, Colorado, Alaska, Oregon and the District of Columbia have legalized the weed.
President Barack Obama and some of his staff will meet with marijuana legalization advocates.
They have petition heavily for support of legalization of recreational marijuana. Many other states are pushing for legalization.
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.

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.
The controversial Rob Ford, former mayor of Toronto passed away.
Toronto's colorful and yet trouble politico passed away last night. Rob Ford, the former mayor of Canada's largest city was facing a whole lot of issues. Two issues that seemed to haunt him was his admitted affairs on his wife. But what really got him was his addiction to cocaine and heroin.
He was busted for drinking and driving. He was always under the influence of something when he doing his presser. His misfortunes became the talk of Canada and the world.
Ford admitted that he's not perfect. He kindly reminded his citizens that he's going to get hammered after ending his presser.
Ford had been diagnosed with pleomorphic liposarcoma, a rare form of soft-tissue cancer, in September of 2014, amid a heated re-election battle. The illness forced him to withdraw his candidacy for a second term to focus on cancer treatments.
Rob Ford opening up one of Donald Trump's luxury hotels.
He was elected to the Toronto City Council in 2014 in spite of his tumultuous past history with inappropriate behavior that included alleged sexual harassment and drug abuse. He was always a good source of entertainment and will forever be remembered for the following quote:
I’m a sick motherfucker, dude.
Rob passed away at the age of 46. He was married to his longtime wife, Renata Brejniak and had two children.
Ford was a bombastic and larger-than-life personality who spoke bluntly, traits that helped him craft an image as a champion of the working class.
When running for mayor, he campaigned as an anti-politician who would cut the size of government and stand up to what he called "big-city elites."
"Toronto's government has grown bloated and wasteful," he said in a campaign video. "It's time to stop the gravy train that provides luxuries and perks to politicians and rich contracts to their friends."
Before his death, Ford mentioned his sins had finally caught up to him. He had no regrets about his troubles. He was a real class act to the people of Toronto.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau ordered Canadian flags lowered in his honor.
World News Today send our condolences to the family of Rob Ford.
Phife Dawg passed away after complications from diabetes.
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.
Phife was known for his rhyming skills and his status as what the magazine calls the "high-pitched, gruff vocal counterpoint to [bandmate] Q-Tip's smooth, mellow flow." 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.

Seattle Seahawks Russell Wilson decided to put a ring on it. He proposed to R&B/pop singer Ciara Harris while on vacation in the Seychelles.
This would be the second time for the R&B singer to be engaged. The would be the second marriage for the NFL quarterback. He was previously married to his high school sweetheart Ashton Meem.
A video posted by Russell Wilson (@dangerusswilson) on
Wilson is a devout Christian and pledged a celibacy before marriage.
Wilson moved Ciara from Atlanta to Bellevue, Washington. They live in the city and give back to the community. He and Ciara are devoted to community service in Seattle metro and Bellevue.
The feud between Ciara and Future has gotten a tad bit of attention. The couple broke up back in 2014 after allegations of cheating from Future. They have a son named Future Zahir.
Future is the father of five children. One of his daughters comes from my second cousin India J.
Future is feuding with Ciara and Russell Wilson. Future isn't keen on Wilson hanging around with his son.
Ciara has sued the rapper for child support and defamation. Future counter sued after he alleged that the pop singer defamed him in the subliminal diss "I Bet".
Future is dissing on Wilson for being too cozy with his son. According to sources, Future isn't comfortable with his son being around the NFL star.
The rapper is an in-demand talent. Many rappers and singers had Future sing or rap on their songs.
EVOL is the fifth album release from Future. It was released on Epic Records through Apple Music.
The rapper signed a multi-million deal to exclusively sell his music through the streaming music service. The last album releases were DS2 and What a Time to Be Alive with Drake.
World News Today congratulates Ciara and Russell Wilson. We wish them well on their journey.
Yeah, I've denied it for years. I believe that Blacks are held to a higher standard when it comes to the law, jobs, government, activism, sports, and entertainment. It seems like I'm waking up to the reality that our country is failing on equal rights.
I am starting to realize that "high hopes" are just "wishful thinking".
White people are treated much differently than Blacks. From the jump, I should have seen it coming.
It's never too late to keep one eye open when it comes to understanding that the path to success is to overcome the standard.
The junk food media holds Black America to a higher standard than the rest. Go down the list of athletes, entertainers, politicians and activists. They have been roundly criticized for being either "too Black" or "not Black enough".
I seen it in Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, the Obama daughters, Ben Carson, Nicki Minaj, LaBron James, Drake, Serena Williams, Trevor Noah, Lil' Wayne, Eric Holder, Loretta Lynch, Anthony Anderson, Chris Rock, Will Smith, Jada Pinkett Smith, DeRay McKesson, Shaun King, Tim Scott, Cory Booker, Cam Newton, Michael B. Jordan, Van Jones, Steve Harvey, Michael Jackson, Al Sharpton, and Melissa Harris-Perry.
The word vomit from the concern trolls is Blacks are lazy, immoral, and dependent on the government. The Republicans and their conservative allies concluded that the Democrats are responsible for the economic poverty and dependency on government. They're immune from taking fault for their incompetence.
These narratives that Blacks are like sheep to the Democratic Party are starting to irk me. I mean if the Republican Party would take their heads out their asses, the Black support would be more than 10%.
On CNN, I heard that extremist Jeffrey Lord go into this ridiculous narrative that the Klan is bunch of leftist Democrats. I thought the right always thought that the left played the race card.
Well for one thing, he's right. The Democrats of yesterday were the conservatives back then. The Republicans were actually liberal. Abraham Lincoln was the first Republican to win the presidency. His polices helped end the slavery but didn't stop discrimination and brutality towards African Americans. It took Harry Truman, a cautious Democrat and Lyndon B Johnson, the south's last president to integrate society. It was the Democratic Party that flipped the script on Black history.
If it wasn't for Johnson signing off the Civil Rights and Voting Rights acts, Blacks would still be segregated from Whites. Democrats mended their old ways. Under a liberal Supreme Court, interracial marriage would be legalized. Democrats offered Native Americans the opportunity to own land and sovereignty. After World War II, the Korean and Vietnam Wars, the Democrats made good on their promise not to punish all Asian American for the acts of some. They would apologize for the callous acts of Franklin D. Roosevelt's executive orders to place Asians in interment camps.
For Pete's sake, the Democratic Party has nominated and the American people elected Barack Obama, the first African American to be the President of the United States, twice.
And yet, Donald Trump had called for President Barack Obama's birth certificate. And perennial loser Mitt Romney asked for his endorsement.
Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Bobby Jindal, Carly Fiorina and Ben Carson claim that the Republican Party is the true party of racial equality. Yet, they look the other way when the Republicans pass restrictions on voting rights, a woman's right to chose, a loving same sex couple's right to marry and a parent's right to sue gun manufactures after a terrorist murders their loved ones with firearms.
They play concern trolls when Blacks are killing each other. They want to take away firearms from Blacks, Hispanics and Muslims. The Republicans have reacted to Blacks killing one another as a fault of Barack Obama's and not the shooters. They don't care about unregistered firearms being sold to the criminals and terrorists.
When Black America express concerns about police brutality, the conservative automatically assume that Blacks are threatening violence on police officers. Black America has real issues to deal with.
Unemployment, class warfare, gun crimes and drugs being sold into our communities has been an issue mentioned by the Democrats. But not enough issues mentioned by the Democrats.
This silly narrative that Donald Trump could pull 30% of the Black vote is highly unlikely. I mean just look how Trump threw out Black students in Alabama. Or how about Trump telling his supporters to push a Black woman out of a rally. Some of those supporters were White extremists.

The pile of money spelled B-R-O-K-E. That's really classy, 50....make fun of the real situation.
The Daily Mail reports that the 40-year-old rapper also lost a legal battle with his ex-business partners over a failed headphone deal and was slapped with a $17 million judgement in that case.
According to his Chapter 11 petition, Fifty claimed he had assets between $10 to $50 million but that his liabilities were in the same range.
Last month, he filed documents in the bankruptcy stating he only had $16 million in assets.
However, it appears appraisers checked into it all - and found his assets total over $64 million and that he only has liabilities totaling more than $36 million.
In addition, 50 Cent's current monthly income is $184,000-plus. The appraisers also valued his home goods to $131,000 including $49,000 in jewelry alone.
Appraisers found he has over $10 million in checking and stocks as well as his various G-Unit and other business' which are worth over $44 million.
His bankruptcy claims have come into question by Judge Ann Nevins, who is concerned over his actual need for bankruptcy and has asked for him to explain a series of photographs he posted to social media.
Today is his former rival Ja Rule's birthday. Ja Rule (born Jeffery Atkins) was born on February 29. He turns 40 years old today. I wonder which day would he celebrate his birthday on the off years!
I bet you money that Ja isn't sweating over money!
The Unit in 2003. Young Buck, Tony Yayo, Lloyd Banks, The Game and 50 Cent.
The Game and Lloyd Banks pose for a social media photo. It kind of seems like it's 50 Cent isn't keen to Banks posing with Game.
Game and his crew saw Banks and his crew in the playground of Dubai. They were cordial enough to take a picture together. No guns drawn. No fists or insults on each others.
A photo posted by The Game (@losangelesconfidential) on
All peace and respect. But it didn't go good for the Unit 's capo.
50 is taking a jab at the two for the picture. He says that this is the biggest confusion to hit him.
Before he scrubbed the post on Instagram, 50 said, "What do you see when you look at this picture? I see confusion, I'm not sure if it's just me, I'm a Cancer shit don't get old with me," wrote the Queens rapper. "I never ask for trouble but I really don't have a problem with it I'm different. The question isn't how I feel about it, but how dose ( Lodi Mac ) feel about it? Some shit is just better off left alone."
It's the feud that never ends. Over 10 years ago, Game was signed to the Unit. Game and 50 were cool for some point but it went downhill.
Game and 50 got into it over the release of The Documentary and The Massacre. 50 said that Game didn't give credit to the Unit when they contributed to his album. He fired Game out the cannon on radio and it led to a member of Game's posse getting shot.
Jimmy Iovine at the time ordered them to settle the feud. They made public statement saying that the tensions between the two have settled. The tensions escalated when 50 and Game traded bars on their mixtapes. Game released the 300 Bars and let 50 and The Unit have it.
Game was eventually fired out the cannon with Aftermath. He would release his other albums on Geffen and eOne Entertainment.
50 was eventually fired out the cannon with Aftermath and Shady Records. He blamed Dr. Dre and Eminem for stalling his releases. So 50 and The Unit went on to Caroline Records to release his music.
So far, the rappers are struggling to stay afloat. They don't sell the platinum albums like they used to. They compete with mainstream acts like Future, Drake, Macklemore, Pitbull and Nicki Minaj.
Lloyd Banks, Young Buck and Kidd Kidd settled their feud with Game. 50 and Tony Yayo said, "they'll die happy knowing Game ain't around!"
Game still sneak disses 50 and Yayo occasionally. This feud will never end.
Matter of fact, Game has not buried the hatchet with another rapper in the game. Game had enough of "phony Bloods" running their mouths. He's aiming at Young Thug for being a "pussyboi who dressing in women's wear". This feud started when Game came to defense of fellow Blood, Lil' Wayne when he was threatened retaliation against Birdman for his royalties.
Lil' Wayne has since settled the feud with Birdman and Thugger.

Congratulations to Taylor Swift for winning the night as well. And also managing to fry the ego maniacal rapper/rap producer/celebrity agitator Kanye West.
She scored a huge win for her album 1989.
Taylor Swift won the Best Album of the Year award and she clapped back at Kanye West after he went into his diva mode. West made the remarks that he created Taylor's career. He promoted that line in his Life of Pablo album. The album was released last week. The two are back feuding again.
I managed to catch the last few minutes of the Grammy Awards. I normally hate watching award shows because I believe these things are boring.
Also Meghan Trainor, The Weeknd, Mark Ronson, Bruno Mars, D'Angelo and many others took home a Grammy. Also former president Jimmy Carter took home a Grammy as well.
Congratulations to them all for their hard work.
