West coast rapper The Game, 500K, and a Fake Tour?

Grand rising to all, and I hope all is well because for The Game it is not…In 2017, the “Dreams” rapper was expected to perform in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth, Australia. Of course, he backed out of this tour due to money issues with the promoter involved. The Federal Court has ordered him to pay $500,000 in damages; well $478,119.73 plus an additional 78,508.08 for interest.

It was stated in the Daily Mail article, that the Cali MC also requested higher pay for appearances that boosted from $32,100 to $51,340, as well as an additional $19,250 for after-party appearances! He also stated that he wanted a documentary to be filmed and the price tag on that production was worth a cool $3 plus million.

There were also requests that his entourage be taken care of the whole tour in addition to the price rise. Jayceon we love you man stay out of trouble. Because this is too much!

Check out more on the entire story HERE.

Tyler The Creator Hits Number One With IGOR Album

Salutations FM Trendsetters and FM Hip Hop Heads!  One of the most controversial rappers of this generation, Mr. Golf Wang himself, Tyler The Creator, has been known to be both lyrical and underrated by most.  Some say his controversial madness and conflicts, as well as a media personality,  outshines his talents.  Others say his outlandish behavior seen in public overtakes his incredible punchline and rhyme ability.  Most just say he is just plain “weird“.  Well surprisingly, the Odd Future frontman surpassed the epic Father of Asahd album by DJ Khaled, which makes it the number one album on the Billboard 200.

A$AP Ferg And A$AP Rocky Pays Homage To DMX With “Pups”

Salutations FM Trendsetters and FM Hip Hop Heads!  Hope everyone had a great weekend! We also hope all the mothers worldwide enjoyed their well deserved Mother’s Day! While everyone was taking their mothers out to nice restaurants, two pivoted figures of the Harlem A$AP Mob collective released a track that was guaranteed to “get uglier than Balenciagas“. A$AP Ferg teamed up with his fellow member A$AP Rocky on a banger that gives you that 1998 feel.  The DMX sampled “Pups” banger.  This is not your average sampled track.  The banger samples Ruff Ryder and former Def Jam emcee DMX‘s 1998 debut single “Get At Me Dog (featuring Sheek Louch)” track.  No instruments was changed.  The song was done in its original and rawest form.  From the drums, snares and barking ad libs to the “Where my dogs at? We right here dog…” references.

 Chris Brown Debuts His New Single “Questions” (Video)

The wait is over. Chris Brown premiered his new single and video  (Aug 16) “Questions” off of his upcoming eighth studio album Heartbreak On a Full Moon. The song is produced by Floyd “A1” Bentley and Christopher Dotson, and features a mix of two Caribbean hits “Turn Me On” by Kevin Lyttle and “Hold Yuh” by Gyptian. In correlation with the single, Breezy also announced on Twitter the release date of Heartbreak On A Full Moon is this Halloween on October 31st.

A clip off of his new documentary “Chris Brown : Welcome to My Life” was recently released as well. It gives insight of the prolific singers upbringing, family, his talents and also  the truth about his relationship with then girlfriend Rihanna.

 

 

“Girl, I got a question for ya,” he sings while sliding across the brightly covered scenery . “Can I get an answer / She only love me ’cause I’m dangerous / That poom-poom somethin’ like angel dust.”

Last week, Brown dropped off a new song called “Pills & Automobiles” featuring Kodak Black, Yo Gotti & A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie. This is a strong follow up and leaves many fans anticipating the best for this rumored “40-track” double disc project. It’s great to see Breezy leave the controversy alone and get back to the music that catapulted him to stardom.
