Sauce Walka, DOOMSTARKS, ThuggaThuggaMufugga, Wale, Juvenile, and more, it's the Rap-Up!

| Feels like Christmas Officially: Wale “Miracle on U Street” | December 23, 2014 |
Harold Stallworth ain’t the one for the dibbin’ and dabbin’. The U Street Corridor is probably the most party-driven stretch of Wale’s adopted hometown of Washington D.C. It’s a vibrant hub for nightlife, ripe with craft beer and musicianship, hookah and second childhood. Transplants adore the yuppified bar-hop scene; natives roll their eyes in disgust […]
| An Illustrated Guide to Wale’s Sadness | July 9, 2014 |
Brad Beatson challenges Wale to a paint-off. Oh sweet, sad, hapless, bowflexing Wale. You’ve truly reached peak Savasana with this one. For those of you off of the Rap Internet, Wale delivered an Oberst-esque message to MMG cohort Meek Mill yesterday, via Instagram. He even went as far as to claim he may be bipolar, […]
Jonah Bromwich is personally invested. That Wale has sold out is indisputable. He was a prime example of the first wave of blog rappers (Kid Cudi, J. Cole, B.O.B. etc). and one of the first post-Kanye artists to figure out what to talk about now that any topic was acceptable. He put out two excellent […]
| MobbDeen: Juicy J – Bounce It feat. Two Marginally Successful Muthafuckas (Wale & Trey Songz). | June 21, 2013 |
Deen remains trippy. For those of you who’ve been paying attention, you’re aware that I’ve probably been listening to all things Freddie Gibbs. After all, he dropped 2 singles and a video in the last week or so. Oh and he decided to drop his album 3 weeks early once it leaked. But a few […]
| An Open Letter To Wale | June 6, 2013 |
Slava P wrote this in lieu of herbal therapy. Hello Wale, are you there? It’s me, Slava. You might not remember me, but I remember you. We were first introduced in 2007 when I downloaded your mixtape, 100 Miles & Running off the strength of your Justice collaboration. I appreciated your punchy delivery and cheeky […]
Deen doesn’t know about that crown. If I’m keeping it honest with y’all, I’ll have to admit that I really have zero interest in listening to anything that isn’t Life Is Good until Freddie Gibbs or Juicy J drop a new project. However, this bloggist shit is quite the responsibility, so write I must. Writing […]
Slava P briefly dated the Maybach Music Girl. For a team that fairly recent started gaining traction, Maybach Music Group has already accrued a fairly popular, if polarizing, roster. There’s the tilapia-loving bawse, Rick Ross; the misguided Midwest transplant, Stalley; the one-man-twerk-machine, Omarion; Meek ‘No Indoor Voice’ Mill; and their newest signee, Rockie Fresh, who […]
