Drake Wants To Talk Things Out With Chris Brown & Speaks On “Started From The Bottom”

Written by Nigel D. / 06.17.13

On Chris Brown drama:
“I hear he has everything he could want now. I don’t want my name to be synonymous with that guy’s name. I really don’t. I wish we could sit down just like you and me are right now, and talk it out man-to-man. But that’s not going to happen. I’m not confrontational, but if someone challenges, I’m not going to back down. If I think about it too much, I feel it wrapping around my foot, like I get a feeling it could end really badly…Like, it gets really dark.”

On “Started From The Bottom:”
“I think a lot of people wish their favorite rapper wrote it—as if a song like that should be gangster—but I was the one who wrote it, and everyone has their bottom.”

“As for my whole story, I wouldn’t change a thing. I’ve told bits and pieces of it—and I’ll tell more. Maybe because I had friends who grew up in the hood, I could have acted like I had, too, and perpetrated a different lifestyle, and it would be eating away at me because it wouldn’t be the truth. i’m actually here in front of you living the truth. I wake up int he morning and my heart is light, man. It’s not heavy. I don’t have skeletons in the closet on their way out. This is my real age, my real name, my real past, and I’m good with that.”

2 Chainz Hot 107.9 Interview

“It was like a .357. It was so heavy he couldn’t really hold it. The gun was so big. That’s what made me take off running. When I went into the street, there was another dude with a whole ‘nother gun,” he added. That’s when I knew it wasn’t like an episode of Punk’d. I was like this is real…I had bullet fragments in my hair…I think he thought he shot me.”

Rick Rubin Says Hopefully On Kanye West’s Contributions Will Inspire Others To Push The Boundaries Of Hip Hop

Where does “Yeezus” put him in relation to hip-hop and the broader music culture?

He is a true artist who happens to make music under the wide umbrella of hip hop. He is in no way beholden to hip hop’s typical messaging musical cliches. Hip hop is a grander, more personal form because of his contributions, and hopefully his work will inspire others to push the boundaries of what’s possible in hip hop.

Full Interview: Wall Street Journal

Looks like, “Yeezus,” will be far from a typical rap album, “Yeezus,” goes on sale June 18th.

Audio: Charlamagne Tha God Calls Out People Joking About 2 Chainz Being Robbed

Written by Nigel D. / 06.13.13

Rappers being robbed is not a new thing, we just have footage of it these days. 2 Chainz was better of just admitting the situation, especially with TMZ already reporting it. I think some tend to find rappers being robbed funny due to the gangsta image they portray in their lyrics. But it doesn’t matter how gangsta you are you can be robbed.
