Trina & Trick Daddy Are Dropping An Album Together

This one is definitely a long time coming. As spotted on Mass Appeal, where you can read the full story:

In the late ‘90s, Trick Daddy Dollars discovered Trina, a rising female rapper with a slick mouth and grimy bars. The pair recorded “Nann N***a,” a street banger that would change their lives, and their hometown, forever. Nearly 20 years later, Trick Daddy and Trina are planning to bring back their unforgettable, hardcore Miami sound with a brand new joint project.

“Yesterday me and Trina signed a deal for a ‘Trick & Trina’ collabo album. So we bringing the city back,” Trick Daddy tells Mass Appeal. “I just want this Trick & Trina record to be classic. I’m going to turn the Diamond Princess back to the Baddest Bitch.”

“[The collaboration album is] just something the fans always wanted, and now we’re officially going to make it happen,” Slip N’ Slide CEO Ted Lucas says. “Trick put Miami on the map with gangsta music, which was different from all perspectives. When Miami was known for booty shaking, Trick was able to change the culture of what people thought about of Miami music, and Trina was able to put female rappers on the map. We’re excited about it, and looking forward to it.”

NEW MUSIC: G’Town Wayne – FaceCard

When you talk about D.C. Hip-Hop and its evolution (particularly in regards to the last decade), it can certainly be said that few have grinded in this little industry of ours harder than G’Town Wayne. The Uptown emcee has crafted some of the most consistent cuts both solo and alongside the likes of Hollywood and (his own outlet/collective) CompLeague in the city. Now, he’s ready to get back to the forefront with a new project; first, he blesses the masses with a new single titled ‘FaceCard’, which sees Wayne reflecting on his trials, tribulations and successes.

You can stream ‘FaceCard’ below via Apple Music and/or support by picking up the single here. Produced by Suavebeatsss.

OG Maco – Children of Rage

OG Maco drops his long-awaited project, with an interesting message:

After three years of waiting, I figure its time to give the fans what they want selflessly. I crafted this album from 2014-2015 as an outlet and I hope it does the same for you. Thank you to all my supporters and believers and especially my critics.

Live free and Rage,
The Lord Of Rage

P.S. This is actually the album its just on soundcloud because my label would remove it from anything else.

Foxy Brown Dissed Remy Ma Over The Weeknd…

…and Nicki Minaj still hasn’t responded. Also, she (once again) copied Lil Kim’s style by pulling her titty out in the name of fashion (below).
