Rob Kardashian, Rob Kardashian, RoB KaRdAsHiAn, rOb Kardashian, rob Kardashian, Rob Kardash….Okay you get it. Rob Kardashian and Blacc Chyna’s infidelities are all people are talking about this week. To capitalize on the hype, Troy Ave drops a new single called…you guessed it, “Rob Kardashian”. (This post should get a lot of hits with how many times I just mentioned ROB KARDASHIAN)

Over the Robbie Nova-produced track, Troy sings over the synth-dominated track. Talking about the subject, he raps, “The big boss is in the office the exccutive chair / Says my name read the back it say “I don’t care / If it’s opinions more than paper n***a I don’t hear / And I’m still holdin’ motherfuckin money to my ear.”

With the pending criminal case, Troy Ave hasn’t been putting out music like he’s done throughout his career. The New York rapper was recently given permission by the judge to start performing and doing shows again. In the wake of it all, Troy drops “Why,” his first single of the year.

Troy Ave – ‘Roland Collins’ [STREAM]

troy-ave-roland-collins

If you thought legal troubles were gonna stop Troy Ave. from working and putting out quality music, you played yourself. The BSB leader unleashed his new album ‘Roland Collins.’

Roland Collins better known as Troy Ave has been dealing with an attempted murder charge for a shooting at the Irving Plaza in New York City. After being released on a $500,000 bail bond, he went straight to the studio to work on the 10-track album.

Troy uses the album to declare his innocence while also spitting about the frustrations of going through a criminal case with restrictions and sharing other personal anecdotes.

In the case of Roland Collins vs. the people, I declare this a solid piece of work for Dope Boy Troy. Hopefully everything works out in his favor and he continues to put out music.

TROY AVE CHARGED WITH MURDER

An unfortunate shooting broke out at T.I.’s concert in New York City earlier this week that lead to three shot and one murdered.

The man murdered was Ronald McPhatter, 33, a member of Troy Ave’s BSB entourage. McPhatter was an associate of Troy’s and also his personal trainer.

In a video released by the venue you can see Troy retaliating for the shooting of his deceased friend. Troy was later charged with attempted murder for shooting in an open club.

T.I. had nothing to do with the shooting and later released a statement on his socials that read:

Let’s hope senseless acts of violence like this don’t continue in the future.

GUCCI MANE RELEASED

For months hip-hop fans tweeted and sported shirts that read “Free Gucci.” This week the Atlanta rapper was released from a federal correctional facility in Terre Haute, Indiana, after serving roughly 39 months on weapons charges.

Guwop is known to be a workhorse and wasted no time getting back to work. In less than 24 hours of being free, he released a track titled “First Day Out Tha Feds,” which was followed up with a mixtape.

‘First Day Out Tha Feds’ the mixtape dropped last night at fittingly, 10:17 p.m. — an homage to the rapper’s 1017 Bricksquad label.

In just one day the mixtape was streamed over a million times! Good to see Gucci back out here. Stream the full mixtape below:

THE WEEKND & BELLY CANCEL APPEARANCE ON KIMMEL

Apparently YG and Nipsey Hussle aren’t the only two names in hip-hop that feel a certain way about Donald Trump. The Weeknd and Belly recently canceled their scheduled performance on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ because they didn’t want to be associated with the Republican delegate according to The Associated Press.

Both XO artists were in LA this week to record their performance for the song “Might Not” before learning Trump was going to be on the same episode causing them to pull out. Read Belly’s statement below:

“I feel like the way I was raised was to be able to see through all the titles in this world — from religion to race,” Belly said in a statement. “I just didn’t want to feel like I was a part of a celebration for somebody who has beliefs that majority of us don’t agree with.”

“I’m here on a campaign of positivity and love and to contribute what I can to music,” Belly continued. “I create songs people go to sleep and wake up to, songs that they fall in love to. For me, being Muslim and being somebody that appreciates my access here in America, I love the fact that I’m able to be here. To play my part in this business is a privilege and a beautiful thing. The fact that I could lose that ability through the actions of someone such as Donald Trump isn’t right to me. At all.”

Nice to see artists with their stature take a stance.

ALL THE WAY UP REMIXES

One of the hottest songs of the year is Fat Joe & Remy Ma’s “All The Way Up,” produced by Cool & Dre.

When a song is as hot as “All The Way Up” everyone wants to hop on the remix or spit something to it. This week Jay-Z dropped some solid bars over the instrumental for the “official remix.”

Jigga wasn’t the only one to spit bars over the cold beat as Meek Mill and Fabolous also had a remix of their own, followed by Jadakiss.

Listen to all the remixes below and tell us in the comments which one you think is best.
