Captain Obvious?: Rick Ross Says 50 Cent Is Washed Musically [Video]

Source: Paras Griffin / Getty It seems disrespect dies hard with Rick Ross. Rozay recently made it clear that he is still not checking for one of his former foes. As spotted on HipHopDX the Miami MC holds nothing back when it comes to interviews. In a recent Q&A with the I Am Athlete podcast he discussed a myriad of topics surrounding his businesses, health and of course his music career. During the conversation with Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson he was asked if he would face off with 50 Cent in a Verzuz battle. As expected the “Gold Roses” rapper kept a buck about Fofty’s skills in the present day. “Would it really be entertaining, music wise?” he asked in return. “You know, I’m a real dude. 50 Cent had some huge records when he had the biggest producers and artists around and was put...

Watch Kevin Bacon Cover Radiohead’s ‘Creep’ for His ‘Goat Songs’ Series

Kevin Bacon doesn’t have much left to prove in the acting world. He’s played the biggest parts, won a handful of awards, been referenced in Guardians of the Galaxy, and become synonymous for how connected most of Hollywood really is with each other. But becoming an Instagram star by singing acoustic cover songs to his goats probably wasn’t what anyone expected from Bacon in 2020. That’s exactly what the 62 year old has done though, and his latest hit is his take on the Radiohead classic, “Creep.” The iconic track follows Bacon’s earlier “Goat Songs” performances of tunes like Frank Ocean’s “Thinkin Bout You” and the Beach Boys’ “Don’t Worry Baby,” and it’s honestly not nearly as terrible as you might be thinking. Of course, it helps that we’ve all become accustomed to odd cover s...

Master P & Baron Davis Interested In Buying Reebok From adidas For $2.4B

Source: REEBOK / Reebok With Nike and adidas basically reigning supreme in the sports attire arena of the game, it looks like Reebok’s about to undergo a major change. Their parent company, adidas, is looking to cut ties with the struggling OG sneaker brand and keep it moving, sparking interest from known entities. According to Forbes, the German sportswear company has decided to put Reebok on the market due to the lack of interest the brand has garnered over the years, but don’t expect the home of Shaquille O’Neal’s signature Shaqnosis’s silhouette to come cheaply either. Even with the struggles that Reebok has experienced over the decades on the street market (can’t resell a pair of Reebok’s to save your life out here), the asking price for the company is said to hover around a cool $2.4...

French Montana Reveals He Gave Up Alcohol After 2019 Health Scare

Source: Judy Eddy/WENN.com / WENN For many people giving up alcohol can prove to be the hardest habit to kick in a lifetime, but the decision becomes a no brainer whenever drinking becomes a life-threatening vice. Just ask French Montana. In XXL‘s latest cover story, the “Unforgettable” rapper revealed that he hasn’t picked up a drink in over a year due to damage that his partying lifestyle had wrought on his health. It was just a year ago that French Montana found himself laid up in the hospital during the Thanksgiving holidays and though he’d develop a habit of drinking and poppin’ percs like Tic-Tacs, doctors told him alcohol could prove to be the most fatal of the two. Knowing he had to make that lifestyle change that many refuse to commit to (addiction is the worst), Montana chose his...
