{Killshot} Who Wants Beef? Eminem vs MGK 

Who won? Who lost? Don't let me sway your decision. I'm just another Eminem fan. Don't shoot the messenger. #Killshot

This will probably be the only post of this kind on this blog. This will be raw & unfiltered. The only edits will be grammatical. However, everyone is asking my opinion on this and I really wasn't trying to touch base on it because everyone is doing the same thing; jumping on the bandwagon of the MGK v Eminem beef. Well, you wanted my input; here it is:

So, Eminem just released his clapback to Machine Gun Kelly's diss, "Rap Devil". I want to come off as neutral as possible, but you all know that's not gonna happen, right? I'm only posting one video here. We've all seen the MGK diss video for his apparent suicide by a candy-named related artist. And everyone who is a fan of the old Em versus the new Em, well people consider him "new" I just consider him as a sleeper trying to wake the game up because he's called out talent before, which is why we now have a Kendrick Lamar & J. Cole collaboration to look forward to in the near future but no one will admit to that...will they?

Okay, so onward to the response to MGK's diss track, Eminem releases "Killshot" today; a few hours ago, MGK was pronounced DOA. His career...or what was left of it...has finally been stowed away for the 90s babies to ponder over. Where was MGK before he heard his name in a line of the number one album in the country? What was he doing exactly? Probably perfecting his "man bun", as Eminem so eloquently points out in his response. Do you guys really want to hear me rant? Or would you rather just listen to it? I'm going to let you listen to it. Then you can comment your thoughts below the post.


Now...does anyone remember the movie? Killshot? With Mickey Rourke & Diane Lane? No? Well, let me drop this bomb for you...directed by John Madden, Rourke plays the role of an assassin who, along with his partner, pursue a couple -played by Diane Lane & Thomas Jane- who just happen to stumble across an extortion scheme. They enter into the WPP & still believe the government is no match for the relentless assassins.

Now allow me to tie up the loose strings: MGK saw his chance to gain a short 15-minutes off of a guaranteed name (the extortion). Some so-called fans & those that don't know Eminem before the 2000's, (aka the couple) witness the scheme & go into hiding because they don't think Eminem has it in him to not only respond but to DEFEAT MGK at any cost.

Well, Em is Rourke. And he's relentless. #KILLSHOT bitches & he's got you in his scope...GOAT?! Drop your comments below!

So, do you guys remember the "You Need to Know Artist", Halsey, post from January?

[you can check that post out here]

Well, she's one of the electrifying artists whose music just sticks with you. And she's finally released her new single, "Alone" off her Hopeless Fountain Kingdom album.

There's the original: which I love...and then there's the remix that features Big Sean and

Stefflon Don, which I love even more. I'm not 100% sure if I entirely love the addition of Stefflon Don's part, but I absolutely love that Big Sean was featured. I'll allow y'all to make up your own minds on that because I'll post the video for both the original and the remix and you can leave your comments as to which one you prefer.

Alone: ORIGINAL 

Hopeless Fountain Kingdom on iTunes & Amazon

Alone: REMIX: Official video with Big Sean & Stefflon Don:

Halsey has been very active with having songs with The Chainsmokers, G-Eazy and then her current world tour, which by the way has her in Nashville on July 18th at the Ascend Amphitheater along with Jessie Reyez at 8pm. If you're in or around the area & want tickets, go here. 

And don't forget that Halsey will be at the Summerfest artist showcase in Milwaukee on June 29th along with Logic & numerous others. You can get your tickets for that show here. These tickets will sell out so be sure to get them early!

So, which one do you like the most? The original? Or the remix? I have encountered on numerous occasions where the remix was actually better than the original. I'm not 100% sold on this remix. I don't exactly know if adding the other artists was a good idea, however it's getting a lot of traction thus far because the video is already over 140k views and it was just released on April 6th.

But you can leave your ideas in the comments & let me know what you think. Also, be sure to click the 'photo cred' links to check out the other articles on Halsey's "Alone" remix with Big Sean & Stefflon Don & leave a comment stating you got there from here. 

As always, I love you guys.

{ YOU READ IT HERE FIRST } Coach Snoop: New Netflix Exclusive Begins 2/02/18

Snoop...the D-O-double G...the coolest west coast hip-hop artist to ever hit the scene. Well, in this new documentary that airs on February 2nd on Netflix, you'll get to see a different side to the nationally acclaimed & accomplished rapper. Adding to his repertoire of greatness, he's mentoring young athletes to allow them an opportunity to reach their goals despite the odds against them.

Coach Snoop: New Netflix Exclusive Begins 2/02/2018

Hailing from Long Beach, born Cordozar Calvin Broadus, Jr. on October 20th, 1971, Snoop emerged under Dr. Dre in the early 90s. With infamous platinum selling albums such as "The Doggfather" & "Doggystyle", he quickly became a household favorite in the world of hip-hop. He was, along with artists like Dre, Biggie, 2Pac-- among a vast majority of others-- the face of the hip-hop industry. His music captivated hip-hop heads and the like ridiculously fast as his songs topped charts and won him numerous accolades, including --but certainly not limited to-- Best Video award for "Drop it like it's Hot" (featuring Pharell) and more Grammy nominations than I have space to write about. His music was --and still is-- on everyone's hip-hop playlists. Undoubtedly a legend that paved the way for many of today's artists, including --but not only, the ever so talented Kendrick Lamar, whom featured Snoop on his album To Pimp a Butterfly. 

Coach Snoop airs February 2nd!

Moving into a new era and expanding on a new endeavor, Snoop moves from your stereos to your television sets this February as a mentor & football coach for at-risk youth athletes. 

Add Snoop being a Steelers fan and Snoop's business partner being a Pamona, California native, and it gives a nice ring to the name of the team: the Pamona Steelers. 

Drawing upon his own childhood struggles, he is striving to make a difference in the lives of these kids. The daily struggles of some of these athletes range from deceased parents (one or both), incarcerated fathers (or mothers), recent gang activity, and more. 

Just to touch on some of the success Snoop has had as a youth football coach for going on 15 years, I cannot fail to mention the fact that one of Snoop's former players currently plays for the Denver Broncos --Ronnie Hillman-- and went on to assist his team in winning the Super Bowl in February 2016. Not to mention, his own son, Cordell Broadus, actually plays for UCLA.

A Boss on the field displaying leadership

Going from a cheering parent in the bleachers & selling out multiple football stadiums, to coaching on the sidelines, Snoop has definitely made an impact on and off the field. This show is going to touch all the heart strings. And I am so here for this. I love seeing people with statuses such as his make a difference and give back. There is nothing more genuine. And Snoop has always given us the real. So tune in THIS FRIDAY to the exclusive premiere of Coach Snoop on Netflix and then come back and drop your comments and thoughts below. I'd love to hear what you think about the show. Don't be the only one not watching. You can watch the trailer for the series below. Want to learn more?
