French Montana and Drake have been teasing what is now known as “No Shopping” for a couple months, after a snippet of the song made its rounds on the Internet. The song was premiered today on Apple Music’s OVO Sound Radio.
On the snippet you can clearly hear a “pump, pump, pump it up” which was a shot by Drake at rapper Joe Buddens, resulting in Buddens dropping a few diss tracks aimed at the 6 God.
Drizzy continues throwing shots at Buddens on his verse by rapping, “I’m not a one-hit wonder, they know all my stuff,” he raps. “You let me turn into the ni**a that you almost was.”
French meanwhile takes the braggadocio route by rapping, “Word to Diddy, we Cirocin’/ Word to Biggie, we’ll be Pac-in’/I just bought Selena’s crib, I’m poppin’/I just told Drizzy, “Let me take Serena to the tropics.”
The video for the song should be coming soon as the two recently shot it in the Dominican Republic.
Listen to the full song below.
“No Shopping” will be on French Montana’s sophomore album ‘MC4’ dropping August 19th. Pre-order it HERE.

It’s no secret that Kevin Durant has a lot of rapper friends. Many of his rapper friends are also some of his favorite artists. KD sat down with Genius to talk about some references rappers have made about him, everybody from Drake to Jay-Z to J. Cole to Wale.

JOE BUDDENS COMES AT DRAKE, JAY-Z AND MEEK MILL
Joe Budden came out firing at Drake in the best way he knows how. Buddens is notorious for feuding with a number of rappers through the years. On “Making A Murderer” not only does he fire at Drake, he also goes at Jay-Z and Meek Mill, making it a full onslaught.
BATTLE BARS
“No alliances with Meek/It’s still fuck him too.”
“Since the OG’s Hov, here’s what I wanna know,”
“If ain’t no real ni**as allowed the fuck would I wanna go? / That’s thinkin’ back to Jay, now let’s get back to Drake / Both too big to respond to all I have to say / Still with all their success and all their accolades / The universe makes it so they come right back to me.”
LOGIC DROPS SURPRISE MIXTAPE
Logic went on a Q&A session with Power 106’s J. Cruz and Hot 97’s Ebro earlier this week, where he answered questions from both radio personalities as well as fans.
During the Q&A he didn’t mention anything about the new project titled, “Bobby Tarantino.” He did drop his new song “Slave” which is on the new project along with “Flexecution” and “Wrist” featuring Pusha T. As always Logic’s artwork is on point.
Logic is currently embarking on “The Endless Summer Tour” along with G-Eazy, YG and Yo Gotti. Get your tickets HERE.
2 CHAINZ DROPS “FEAT 2 CHAINZ PT. 5” MIXTAPE
If you’re familiar with 2 Chainz, you know he’s usually featured on either an original or remixed versions of the hottest club bangers. Chainz dropped a mixtape of the hottest tracks he’s been featured on in the past couple months.

We know Drizzy has been feeling the island vibes lately with his singles “Controlla” and “One Dance.” At last month’s Red Bull Culture Clash in London, Mixpak dropped a remix to Drake’s No. 1 hit record, “One Dance.” On the remix you can hear Drake singing “I need a one dance / Papi got a Hennessy in his hand,” with a Jamaican patois. Drizzy is rumored to be in South Africa shooting the video for “One Dance.”

It’s no secret that Drake and French Montana have a song done they’ll be releasing soon. The two teamed up on “Pop That” a few years ago and are now embarking on releasing their latest “No Shopping.”

BEYONCE’S LEMONADE GOES PLATINUM
When Beyonce dropped ‘Lemonade’ earlier this year fans everywhere were in a frenzy as the album dropped via an HBO special. The album was officially given a platinum certification earlier this week.
The platinum plaque is the sixth for Beyonce, whom originally released the album exclusively on TIDAL.
‘Lemonade’ encompasses hits “Formation,” “Freedom” featuring Kendrick Lamar and “6 Inch” featuring The Weeknd.
Big ups to Bey on the accomplishment.
FUTURE EARNS FIRST PLATINUM PLAQUE
Beyonce wasn’t the only one to grab a platinum plaque this week, Future snagged up his first platinum certification as well for ‘Dirty Sprite 2.’
Although DS2 got a platinum certification, Future still has never had a platinum which is strange when you consider some of the hits he’s put out.
Bigs ups to Future and the whole FreeBandz team on the accomplishment.
New Level 🙏🏾

ScHoolboy Q has finally set the official date for his next album to follow up Oxymoron. Q took to Twitter to announce he will be dropping the album July 8th.
