Jadakiss And Swizz Beatz Drop Yet Another Song After Funk Flex Challenge [Video]
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Shareif Ziyadat / Getty New York is starting to sound like New York again. Jadakiss and Swizz Beatz have blessed us with another song just after Funk Flex challenged them. As per Hip-Hop N More the two Ruff Ryder members seem to be in the kitchen together exclusively. Earlier this month the HOT 97 DJ issued a challenge asking the MC and esteemed producer to deliver a song under a week. As expected the two delivered and begged the question “why New York radio be sounding like Atlanta?”. While the “Why” rapper has not expounded on the line many saw the bar as a direct criticism to the station’s long time stance on playing mostly hit records. Nevertheless the song seemed to be fairly received by locals and the Hip-Hop community overall. [embedded conten...
Funkmaster Flex Blasts Pete Rock After Conway The Machine Beef
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty Funkmaster Flex made news this week after exchanging harsh words with Conway The Machine, and it doesn’t look like that rift is going away anytime soon. The Hot 97 personality then turned his attention towards legendary producer Pete Rock, adding rise to the idea that Funk Flex isn’t backing down from any of his critics. Conway The Machine took aim recently at Funkmaster Flex, accusing the longtime DJ of ignoring rising artists in New York City in favor of commercial acts. Although the Buffalo, N.Y. star was clear he wasn’t clamoring for radio support, Funk Flex still fired a barrage of insults in the rapper’s direction. Pete Rock joined in the fracas by sharing a now-deleted comment on social media cosigning Conway and his crit...
Conway The Machine & Funkmaster Flex Exchange Words Over Radio Support
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty Conway The Machine and Funkmaster Flex are a hot topic of current Hip-Hop discussion, this after the Buffalo, N.Y. rapper called out the Hot 97 DJ for his lack of supporting underground acts. Funk Flex responded in kind, sparking a debate about the role of terrestrial radio in the current landscape. Conway The Machine took to Instagram Live last weekend and expressed frustration over Funk Flex ignoring underground acts while explicitly stating in the video that he doesn’t need the radio support. For some reason, many on Twitter took Conway’s words to be a lament about his position in the game and that wouldn’t even make sense considering the success of Griselda and the rise of Conway’s own Drumwork Music Group label. Accusing Fu...

Fivio Foreign Is Now A Free Man, Puts In Bid To Perform At HOT97 Summer Jam [Video]
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty Fivio Foreign is now a free man after being locked up for several months. He has only been out a couple of days and is already aiming to perform at the iconic HOT97 Summer Jam. As spotted on Complex the Brooklyn native has been released from jail. Back in April he was booked on weapons charges. According to police documentation the incident stemmed from a visit to a Citibank location in Fort Lee, New Jersey. Apparently the Drill rapper left his Mercedes-Benz running while in a no parking zone which caught the attention of nearby law enforcement. The badges approached him and requested his driver’s license but he ignored the requested and asked if they were giving him a ticket. Fivio continued to walk away which led to a chas...
Funk Flex On Drake vs Meek Mill: “I Wanted To Be In The History Book”
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty Funkmaster Flex admittedly likes attention—more than most, some could argue. Sure, a lot of us have already known this, but still recoiled at one particular line from a recent talk the DJ had with Rap Radar: “I wanted to be in the history book.” Back in 2015 when Meek Mill and Drake were feuding, it all started with the Philadelphia rapper running the reference track for Drizzy’s “10 Bands” up to Hot 97. He’d hoped to “expose” Drake for using ghostwriters, and not having read the room, things did not work out in Meek’s favor. News of the reference track barely moved the needle amongst rap fans and subsequently, Meek received a succinct lesson in why you should never poke a sleeping bear.
