  • NBA YoungBoy VS 6ix9ine | Versus | Who Is The Better Artist?
    Unless you’ve been living under a rock over the past two weeks, you’ve no doubt heard the news that Tekashi 6ix9ine has finally been released from prison after serving nearly two years locked up inside on a racketing charge.
    You’ve also probably heard that YoungBoy Never Broke Again, formerly is already having himself a bit of a month after a former girlfriend of his, the daughter of Floyd Mayweather attacked and stabbed his baby mama.
    Now, the reason I bring up these two is that they actually have a longstanding beef stemming back almost a year ago to when Tekashi was still locked up. At the time, Tekashi’s baby mama, Sara Molina, hopped on a local & discount / community-based podcast and told a little story about NBA YoungBoy sliding into her DM’S over something she said about him.
    As you might imagine, someone with as fiery a temper as NBA YoungBoy didn’t take too kindly to hearing his name roll off Sara’s tongue…. Especially after he had apparently already warned her as her story entails.
    Now, for all intents and purposes, this beef got left off there, but there is still plenty to work with when comparing these two internet artists so why doesn’t your boy Michael McCrudden stoke those flames a little bit and try to bring some form of closure to this feud?

  • FlightReacts | Before They Were Famous
    Before FlightReacts would inspire a Steph Curry MEME that went so Viral, even Curry himself hopped on the bandwagon…
    Before FlightReacts would have over a quarter-million followers on Twitter, almost 400K followers on Twitch, close to 1 Million followers on Instagram, and over 4 Million combined subscribers across two YouTube channels at the time of this recording...
    Before FlightReacts would start dropping banging rap tracks of his own… Flightreacts has been around for a minute creating viral online content for YouTube and other platforms. My man has been holding down the fort since the early part of this decade, which is actually right around the time I first started this channel as well. Brother from another mother I tell ya. The kid has blown up off his reaction videos to anything from trick shots… to women judging his looks… He's taken the internet by storm, and that’s without even mentioning the series of content he posts involving sketches, basketball players, pranks, basketball players, video games, and yes, even more, basketball players. During hard times like these when the world doesn’t have any sports, at least we still have Flight Reacts holding down the fort. For this video, I was actually able to get in contact with Kimani and he helped me piece this one together answering all my questions.

  • Don Toliver | Before They Were Famous | Jackboys
    Before Don Toliver would feature on Travis Scott’s hit single “Can’t Say” off of AstroWorld.
    Before Don Toliver had over 700K followers on Instagram, 100K followers on Twitter, and was fast approaching ½ a million subscribers on YouTube at the time of this recording…
    Before Don Toliver would accompany The Weeknd on his most recent world tour…
    Don Toliver has been a fixture of Houston’s hip-hop and R & B scene since dropping his first joint mixtape, “Playa Familia” back in 2017. Subsequent hits like “No Idea”, and his collab on “Can’t Say” with Travis Scott and “No Regrets” with Eminem have only furthered his new-found fame and name recognition the world over.
    For years, it’s seemed like the main problem with artists coming out of Houston is that most people would have trouble relating to the culture down there if they weren’t already a part of it. It's a bit of a mixed batch of talent from Destiny's Child to the late DJ Screw and more recently Travis Scott. For whatever reason, the musical identity of the town just didn’t translate to the rest of the world. So how did Don Toliver manage to buck that trend? That’s what we’re here to find out.

  • Lil Pump | Where Are They Now | Quitting Rap For Pump Rock ???
    After Lil Pump would announce the imminent release of his newest album, “Lil Pump 2” by dressing up as Princess Pump…
    After Lil Pump would get bitten by a snake while filming a music video for his second album, “Harvard Dropout”…
    After Lil Pump would clock in with 17.8 Million followers on Instagram, 1.2 Million followers on Twitter, 2.2 Million followers on TikTok, and nearly 17 Million subscribers on YouTube at the time of this recording…
    Take one look at Lil Pump and it’s understandable why some people earlier on in his career treated him more or less as a joke. The multi-colored hair, the UFO, and rocket tattoos around his eyes and let’s not forget the nearly impossible pronounce catchphrase of Esketit.
    Take all that into consideration and the 19-year-old rapper has more or less treated his own rise to fame as an experiment that was never really meant to happen in the first place. But now, in the year 2020, Lil’ Pump is no longer just a Soundcloud rapper trying to find his way, he’s a bona fide part of our culture’s zeitgeist. An artist with a multimillion-dollar contract attached to a major record label and the rebellious hero who has captured the hearts and minds of a number of teenagers the world over. He comes off as young and reckless because guess what, he is.
    But this young man has managed to release two powerful studio albums and embarked on an extremely successful world tour. In short, he’s making himself and a bunch of other people, a ton of money. But Lil Pump's been teaming up with YouTubers both good and bad with recent collaborations with KSI and the Dobre Brothers. He shaved off his eyebrows and let his fans know that he's ready to transition... I ain't talking Bruce Jenner stuff, he's making the move to rock. More details in today's video.
