This one HURTS extra💔 I’m just finding out that Plug Two from De La Soul has passed away. THIS is the band that got me in to this thing called hip-hop, so it cuts extra deep. I’m really devastated. Much love and condolences to his family, friends and of course

Dear Hip-Hop, You changed my life immeasurably. You were and ARE my first love. For 35 yrs I have been part of this irresistible culture, 23 of those releasing music. You helped me to gain my PhD writing about you. You have NEVER let me down. I LOVE you. Happy 50th

It’s shocking to learn that those found guilty were his Godson (who was the shooter) and his childhood friend. Just be mindful of where you place your trust - it’s a dirty world out there y’all.

He needs to quit with this “too old to rap” narrative. Either you want to or not. Age is no longer a barrier - the culture is half a century old now. Back in the day there were NO hip-hop OGs and now there are. Just rap or don’t 🤷🏻♂️
André 3000 says he misses rapping, 'would love' to make another rap album 👀
“I do [miss rapping]. I just think it’d be an awesome challenge to do a fire album at 48 years old... I would love to do that.” (via

WORD to the (legendary) Shan!!! I’m SICK of people questioning Eminem FFS. He’s been part of this culture as a recording artist for 25+ years and as a fan of it for more like 40. I’m not even a big fan of his, if I’m honest, but credit where credit is damn due…Every few years…
