- • 87%variety.com Lil Wayne Says Super Bowl Snubbed Him for Halftime Show: ‘That Broke Me… It Hurt a Lot.’
Nearly a week after Kendrick Lamar was announced as the Super Bowl halftime headliner, New Orleans native Lil Wayne says being snubbed “broke me.”
Having a LA artist in a New Orleans Superbowl does kinda feel weird I guess

“Murdergram Deux” marks LL Cool J and Eminem’s highly anticipated first collaboration and the fourth single from LL Cool J’s long-awaited upcoming album, The FORCE. With LL’s nostalgic bravado and Eminem’s signature speedy flow and subtle wordplay, the song sees the pair boasting about their raw “unapologetic” style and credibility in the rap game. The track – a sequel to LL’s original “Murdergram” – is produced by Eminem and Q-Tip, LL’s fellow Queens rap legend and former member of A Tribe Called Quest, who has produced the entire album.
Two months before the official release of the song, an unfinished version of “Murdergram Deux” was leaked to the public, visibly annoying LL. The song was officially released on August 30th as the album’s fourth single, which is set to drop on September 9, 2024.^[[1] https://genius.com/Ll-cool-j-murdergram-deux-lyrics]

I found out about her after her feature on Denzel. I'd heard some of her songs before randomly but never got curious enough to look her up until her verse on HOT ONE.
Her music sounds a bit samey IMO, but her talent is undeniable; she's got flow, lyrics, and charisma. Also... She's newgen, no denying that.
I strongly dislike the majority of mainstream fem rappers out right now (Cardi B, Megan, Sexxy Red) but I think Tia has some gems.
Thoughts?

Back in the day this was one of the dopest beats and the scratched 'trax' sample was heard later on on anything. Back then I was into Mantronix too which had similar style of grooves to me using drum machines instead of vinyl drumloops but I think this is way more hardcore and underground.

``` Rock in my pocket like Gibraltar, Chop it up, Lookin’ like Siesta Key. White like it show up at the altar, Don’t be gettin’ messy with the recipe. Is it Fini in the bag, is it Kanye? Shit can turn a long night into a long day. Pressin’ on the gas ‘til the car shake, 120 on the dash, went the wrong way. Time is a flat circle, I’m doin’ donuts. I was 13 & I blinked, now I’m grown up. Never asked me what I think, I don’t know enough. I say if we link, Then we link, You ain’t showin’ up. What you runnin’ from? I be in a rented 911 on the 101, 780 credit, I could get it if I wanted one. I would rather bet it on my head, & watch it double up, Bitch you a runner up.
Heavy is the weight on my chest, I can bench it. Heavy is the weight of the world, I could squat that. Heavy is the weight of the crown, The attention, Hear you talkin’ like a heavyweight, But you not that. (Don King couldn’t even make a dollar off you) (Heard you talkin’ like a heavyweight but you not that)
Set and I’m ready from the rip, Yeah I’m starter status. Prezi on my wrist, No that’s not a patek. She gon’ let me hit, Yeah that’s automatic. Solid 7 on my hip and she not dramatic, The 9 and 10’s they get problematic. She take the key and wreck the Benz, Always causin’ havoc, Yeah, I try to tell them this is not a habit, I tell my therapist I’m not an addict. This shit ain’t easy as it look, You can’t read me like a book. You can’t treat me like a rook, Man they wash, yeah they washed up. Season with the cook, They don’t see what all it took, Only thing I still regret, I should’ve got Breezy on that hook. (Aw yeah) Big mistakes, Yeah I made ‘em in abundance, Bad breaks by the case, by the hundreds. Say that as I’m breaking down the blow, Like it’s fun dip. All that rocky fuckin’ up my nose, Like I’m Lundgren.
Heavy is the weight on my chest, I can bench it. Heavy is the weight of the world, I could squat that. Heavy is the weight of the crown, The attention, Hear you talkin’ like a heavyweight, But you not that. (Don King couldn’t even make a dollar off you) (Heard you talkin’ like a heavyweight but you not that) ```

On Doechii's 2024 release, the Tampa-born rapper showcases the blend of clever rhymes with deep, philosophical musings that have punctuated early releases like 2020's Oh the Places You'll Go mixtape and 2022's she / her / black bitch EP. Lead cut "STANKA POOH" finds the Top Dawg Entertainment artist wrestling with her artistic mortality and role as a Black woman in music. She raps: "Let's start the story backwards/I'm dead, she's dead, just another Black Lives Mattered/And if I die today I die a bastard/TikTok rapper, part-time YouTube actor."
Obviously, Doechii aims to be bigger than viral clips and TV shows so small they can fit on your computer screen. On Alligator Bites Never Heal, Doechii asserts herself as one of rap's most impressive bar-for-bar MCs. "DENIAL IS A RIVER" is a classic narrative cut in the style of Slick Rick's "Children's Story," while "NISSAN ALTIMA" is an electro-rap thriller designed to keep the dance floor hot and heart rates up. She sums it up simply enough when she raps: "All beef gets smoked/l'm a real fly bitch, you in coach."

As we know Dela had copyright issues with their first album using uncleared samples. In 1988 Stetsasonic, on this track, where reasoning about their use of sampling, although they where one of the first groups that included a live band. They where also one of the first Hiphop acts to fuse Jazz with Hiphop. Big hit back in the day, played it on repeat.

> If someone asked me what the theme song was for 2020 as I watched videos day after day of cops abusing protesters and bystanders, this is undoubtedly the only choice. Came up on shuffle last night and immediately took me back.
I've seen some memes and references to it, but what is actually going ob here? Is there proof?
