FUTURE DROPS TAPE WITH DJ ESCO

future-announces-project-e.t.

Future made noise on Twitter late last night when he hinted at a new mixtape.

However, nobody expected the FBG general to drop the tape less than 24 hours after teasing it on Twitter. It should come as no surprise as Future has always had a strong reputation for being a hard worker. This is the third tape he’s dropped this year along with ‘EVOL’ and ‘Purple Reign.’

‘Project E.T.: Esco Terrestrial’ mixtape is his offering to summer ’16. It has that natural trap feel with a handful of tracks that figure to light up the nightclubs all summer.

It comes loaded with features from Drake, 2 Chainz, Young Thug, Lil’ Uzi Vert, Casey Veggies and more. Metro Boomin, DJ Mustard and Zaytoven also have production credits on the project.

Stream the full mixtape below.

Kanye West sold out the Forum in Los Angeles Friday night to premiere the video for his song “Famous.” The NSFW video has made waves on the Internet since pictures of celebrity bodies laying between satin white sheets have surfaced.

The familiar faces laying naked in the controversial video are: Kim K-West, Taylor Swift, Rihanna, Chris Brown, Donald Trump, Bill Cosby, George W. Bush, Anna Wintour, Caitlin Jenner, Ray J and Amber Rose.

Kanye is known for being controversial and thinking out of the box and loves being talked about hence his line “I’d be worried if they said nothing.”

SCHOOLBOY Q DROPS ‘BLANK FACE EP’ TRAILER

We’re a few weeks away from the release of ScHoolboy Q’s ‘Blank Face LP’ and Q gave us a preview for what’s to come with a cinematic trailer.

The trailer that is over a minute long shows Q running from the police, smoking a blunt with homies in his living room before his mom kicks them out and captures him behind bars. You’ll also see Q sporting a Houston Astros cap representing Hoover as he rides around the hood with some of his comrades.

It’ll be interesting to see if Q will release the album in a LEMONADE-isque fashion with full-length visuals.

Watch the trailer below.

The ‘Blank Face LP’ will be dropping July 8th.

LAKERS SELECT INGRAM WITH 2ND OVERALL PICK

The Lakers hit it big at the NBA Draft Lottery when they were awarded the 2nd overall pick. On Thursday the team turned that 2nd pick into Brandon Ingram out of Duke.

In a not so deep draft this year, Ingram was a major pick for the rebuilding Lakers, whom are in need of a big man.

It is not yet known if the 18-year-old will make the team this year or will be stashed overseas to work on his game. One thing is for sure that Lakerland is very optimistic of this pick and see Ingram as a foundation of the future.
