Drake Calls On The Biebs To Take His Place In DJ Khaled’s “Popstar” Video
Source: Kevin Mazur/BBMA2017 / Getty It was a long time in the making but finally DJ Khaled and Drake have finally come together to drop some new visuals for their collaboration cut, “Popstar.” However, Drake is relegated to shooting his part from the comfort of his Canadian home due to the Coronavirus shutting down travel from the all sides of the border. Luckily for Drizzy he has a little pull in the music game and recruits non other than fellow Mountie, Justin Bieber to fill in for him and recite his verse throughout the visuals as he throws a soiree at his mansion with tons of guests and no masks to be seen. Super spreader event? Regardless of the Rona, the video was pretty damn funny and entertaining. Check out the visuals to Director X’s “Popstar” below and let us know if Justin Bieb...
Watch Elderbrook’s Haunting Live Cover of Drake’s “Toosie Slide”
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, renowned English electronic music Elderbrook was on a barnstorming journey to superstardom, touring the world and proliferating his unique electro-soul sound. Since his tours consisted of a lot of time spent in hotels, he decided to cover some of his favorite songs in his down time and share them with fans. One of those covers is a haunting take on Drake‘s chart-topping hip-hop anthem “Toosie Slide.” Covering a song of this magnitude may present a daunting task to most, but with an innate ability to inject soul regardless of genre, Elderbrook does so with a phlegmatic nonchalance. He makes it look easy, stripping the thumping original down to its barebones and deconstructing its heavy bass elements before replacing them with melan...
Kev-On Stage Schools White Folks On The History Of DJ Screw After Teens Colonize Sound
Source: Magdelena / Radio One Houston Comedian Kev-On Stage had to put on his “teacher” cap after calling out white teens on social media for attempting to appropriate the legendary and original “Chopped and Screwed” sound of Houston icon DJ Screw. On Thursday (Aug 13), the comedian took to social media with a response to a young teen who attempted to credit a white producer named Slater with originating the early 90s sound and gave her a quick lesson on the true originator of the sound she called a “slowed and reverb phenomenon”—DJ Screw. “White people, y’all don’t know what y’all be talking about but you be confidently loud and wrong!” Kev-On Stage began. “You really tried to gentrify chopped and screwed. I know you don’t know who DJ Screw is, but I guarantee you Slater is not the invent...
Going Nuts: Drake Cops New Ski Masked Cupid Piece And Diamond Chain
Source: WENN/Avalon / WENN Drake is balling out on another level. Champagne Papi just treated himself to more ice. As spotted on Hype Beast the Canadian MC has added some more custom jewelry to his already impressive collection. On Thursday, August 6 he posted new visuals of him sporting never seen before pieces. On his neck was a traditional flying cupid figure shooting his arrow of love but this one finds the mythological god of desire wearing a ski mask. The ornament is paired with a black and gold diamond pavé chain. On top of that was a separate chain that was shorter in length but just as heavy on the ice.

Free Smoke: Drake Takes Shots At Pusha T & Kanye West In “Only You Freestyle”
Source: ROBYN BECK / Getty Drake smells blood in the water. The Toronto rapper seemingly came out swinging at Kanye West and Pusha T in a new freestyle. Kanye West had himself a tough Monday (Jul.21). Not only did he seemingly meltdown on Twitter following his failed campaign rally that didn’t even help get on South Carolina’s ballot, Drizzy decided to touch him up with some bars. In his best across the pond accent, Aubrey let the chopper spray calling out both West and his G.O.O.D. Music president Pusha T. On UK rapper Headie One’s “Only You Freestyle,” Drake seemly alleges that Kanye has been hiding behind King Push when it came to their “beef.”. On the song he raps: “Sh*t, you man been droppin’ lately/Don’t make me have to fly my iTunes,” Drake raps. “So much people buy into my hype / D...

Drake Goes To Barbados To Shoot Some Hoops, Rihanna Still Not Impressed
Source: Rick Madonik / Getty We know Drake might still be trying to woo Rihanna back in his life but going all the way to her home country just to play basketball is ridiculous. Okay, maybe that wasn’t his true intention but his presence at the Caribbean island caused quite a stir as he and a few of his friends balled out on the basketball court. TMZ is reporting that the 6 God took a private jumbo jet down to Riri’s neck of the woods where he shot some hoops and even posed with some of the fans in attendance once they began clamoring for his love. Champagne Papi slipped on some Nike gear — sneakers, socks, shorts, jersey, headband — and showed off his sweet jump shot … but as the crowd continued growing, Drake paused the game and donned a face mask while snapping pics with locals. We’re n...
The 101 Best Albums of the 2010s
Why now? Because — and there’s no reason to ignore the elephant in the room: SPIN stewardship has changed hands many, many times since we made the online jump — we got our chance. Because plenty of our favorite albums of the last 10 years could still use a boost. Because some of the already unanimously beloved music on this list still merits further praise. Because we relish excuses to sound off on the music that’s affected us the most and to enlist some of our favorite writers to do so. Because the works of art below serve as a reminder that the 2010s weren’t all bad. Because lord knows we need the distraction. Because it’s fun. There’s a lot of music that isn’t on this list. Which, duh, but plenty of artists whose work defined the decade for many, many people, including many of us, ...
Beef Brews Between Swizz Beatz & OVO After Producer Called Drake Out His Name
Source: Isaiah Trickey / Getty Although Swizz Beatz has been credited with keeping music fans engaged in entertained via his VERZUZ series with Timbaland, that same spirit of harmony was absent in him over the weekend. After calling Drake out his name during an interview session with Busta Rhymes, Swizz walked back the jab but some in the OVO camp won’t accept the apology. Via Swizz’s Instagram Live-based Zone Radio show, the producer chopped it up with Busta Rhymes discussing a variety of topics. Last week, the track in question, “Stay Down,” made its way to the Internet, which features a J Dilla beat and record around 2012. Busta for his part was fine with the song never dropping but Swizz was ready for war. Drizzy’s vocal tone is noticeably different with both men rocking similar verses...
