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 last night 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.”
Belly is currently making runs to promote his upcoming project, ‘Another Day in Paradise’ dropping May 27th.

Meek Mill is feeling himself after winning a Billboard Music Award. Mr. DreamChaser just put out a remix of the Cool & Dre produced “All The Way Up” featuring Fabolous, a day after Hov was featured on the official remix. Meek goes all the way in on Drake to reignite the beef many thought was done and over with after Drizzy’s “Summer Sixteen” and “Back 2 Back.” As for Fab he’s just on there being himself, spitting crazy punchlines known to put you in a coma.

Former L.A. Leaker Indie Pick of the Week, Torrian Ball is back with a thumper. On his newest “Revelations” he talks haters and why he runs his city.
@IamBNyce
There’s been a lot of chatter around the industry of Jay-Z releasing some new music. Yesterday, a remix of Fat Joe and Remy Ma’s “All The Way Up” was released and featured a vicious verse from Hov. The Roc Nation head honcho makes various references from his D’usse cognac to bragging about all his GRAMMYs, but none was bigger than the “Lemonade” reference on the track.
“You know you made it when the fact/ Your marriage made it is worth millions/ Lemonade is a popular drink and it still is/ Survival of the littest,” he spits at the beginning of the verse. Can’t wait to see what else is to come from Hovito. There’s been rumors about a track with Future and DJ Khaled, along with others. He should make a big splash this summer.
Shoutout to Pecas for making this happen and listen to the confidence in Fat Joe and Remy Ma’s verses. You can hear they’re all the way back! Good to see!

Trigga Trey is back with another remix. He’s recently remixed Belly’s “Might Not” and Kodak Black’s “SKRT.” On his most recent remix he went off on TKNCash’s smash single, “3 Times In A Row,” which he released on his SoundCloud today. Trey did his thang, what do you think?
@IamBNyce
One half of TKNCash, TK Kravitz is “Ready” to get the business in his new explicit solo joint.

DRAKE ON ELLEN
Fresh off SNL, Drake continues to make his television rounds when he visited ‘The Ellen Show’ earlier in the week.
The “Hotline Bling” rapper discussed his SNL appearance, his relationship with Rihanna and had the shit scared out of him by a man ironically wearing Drizzy’s infamous “Hotline Bling” outfit.
In the video below Drake plays a friendly game of “Never Have I Ever” with Jared Leto and Ellen. Watch below to find out what the 6 God has never done.
KANYE ON ELLEN
Kanye made a rare television appearance earlier this week paying Ellen a visit to discuss several interesting topics and even played a funny 5-second rule game.
Ye started by talking about his kids (Saint and North) before he went on a stream of consciousness rant focusing on wanting to improve mankind. He notably shouted out Rakim and Phife Dawg. (R.I.P)
Watch the rant and the hilarious games.

Nice to see Kanye in a playful, fun mood.
CHANCE DROPS HIS THIRD MIXTAPE
Chance blessed the game with his third mixtape release this week. The ‘Coloring Book’ formerly known as Chance 3 made waves creating a frenzy.
The 14-track mixape sounds more like an album with features from: Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Justin Bieber, 2 Chainz, Future, Young Thug and a couple others.
Watch Chance perform “Blessings” on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

Go buy the album if you haven’t! I give it five flames.
Chance even received praise and support from good friend and mentor, Kanye West.

LAKERS GET 2ND PICK IN LOTTERY
As Laker fans we are well aware that we need more talent to put the team back at the top where we belong. This week’s NBA Draft Lottery brought us the 2nd overall pick in this year’s NBA Draft.
Kobe’s retirement opens up a spot in the starting lineup and also leaves us without a face of the franchise.
It will be interesting to see who the Lakers end up getting. Let’s hope it’s a future superstar.
“The second pick will be made by… the Los Angeles Lakers.” https://t.co/kCSsRJ53od

If you thought Drake was gonna take a break from making music after releasing an album, guess again. The 6 God was featured on YG’s “Why You Always Hatin?” which premiered on OVO Sound Radio today. Oliver who was hosting the show, followed that premiere up with another one — a remix to Drake’s “Hype” featuring none other than Lil Tunechi. Good to see these two making music together again, even if they might’ve not been in the studio together when this one was recorded.
@IamBNyce
YG announced last week that he will be dropping the first single off his forthcoming album ‘Still Krazy’ on OVO Sound Radio today. The new track “Why You Always Hating” premiered and features Drizzy and Bay Area up-and-comer Kamaiyah. Listen to the song below and be ready for “Still Krazy” dropping next month.

This week’s Indie Pick of the Week, Correy C, has the kind of sound you will hear at a cracking party. The bass-heavy beats coupled with his bouncy flow make for a good combo.
You couldn’t tell Correy is from Los Angeles by the sound of his music. Although he reps LA heavy you can hear the southern influence in his sound.
His most recent song “Foreign Girl,”features Dreamville artist, Cozz and is produced by Meez, MikeAlmighty and T-Lew.
“Foreign Girl” shouts out all the sexy ladies from across the world that love to have fun. Listen below:
Correy will be dropping his next project this summer titled, “Salutations,” which will have “Foreign Girl” on it. Be on the look out.
Follow Correy C on the socials @CorreyCtheG. Don’t forget who put you on.

Troy Ave. and Young Lito got another one! It’s usually magic when this combination get in the studio and get to work. This song has that nice summer vibe that you can cruise with the top down to, the type that make you wanna take the scenic route. Shout out the whole B$B!
