Meek Mill jumps on Omelly’s Panamera for a quick response to Gillie Da Kid’s diss track. We are now at war (on wax), people.

(BACK) IN THE STUDIO: Drake & The Weekend…….& Riff Raff?
At the top you can see that Drake is back with The Weeknd (they were never beefing by the way, which we’re now 100 percent sure of following The Weekend’s recent Complex feature)….here’s to hoping that both Nothing Was The Same and Kiss Land get those collaborative infusions before they both drop…..
Moving along, it also appears that Drizzy was befriended by none other than Riff Raff, who also had a blast partying with Drake and his fellow Toronto rock star Justin Bieber at one of Bieber’s recent shows. Additional pictures and Vine clips are below relating to that.
Nicki Minaj (Reportedly) Files Restraining Order Against DJ Khaled After Marriage Proposal
This is coming from Hip-Hop 365; I won’t know if this is true or not until we receive confirmation from the actual artist(s) (and I’m leaning toward it not being so — just look at the above picture), but for now…..let’s just bask in the hilarity of this as if it were true:
As if this story couldn’t get any more bizarre, just one day after DJ Khaled embarrassed himself by broadcasting a wedding proposal to Nicki Minaj, the Young Money super star has responded by reportedly filing a restraining order in the state of New York, where she resides. According to Reports, this isn’t the first time Khaled has professed his infatuation with Nicki, the DJ has allegedly sent Nicki flowers in the past, as well as random packages, and constantly shows up to her concerts all across the country, according to the report.
But with all the random stuff that comes from YMCMB, we wouldn’t be surprised if this was some sort of publicity stunt from both sides.
Nicki has yet to come out to respond to the awkward video or restraining order publicly.
I just thought about something — I wonder how Scaff Beezy took the proposal?
@Twinsmatic – Troubleseason (EP)
French producers Twinsmatic have liberated their latest offering, a 9-track EP that you can stream and/or download below.
SNIPPET: R. Kelly Feat. 2 Chainz – My Story

The Game Changes Name Of Rolex Records To The Firm
The Game just isn’t creative at all. According to him, he (and Stat Quo) lost a months-long legal battle with the real Rolex namesake…..so he decided to change the name of the upstart to The Firm (which I’m sure is an ode to the Dr. Dre-helmed supergroup of the same name). He made this announcement on his Instagram:
ATTENTION: All artist & producers !!!!!! So after a 6 long month legal battle with Rolex watches over the name “Rolex Records” we lost & had to fully change the name of the label & it’s logo away from the likeness of Rolex’s crown & stay away from any & everything resembling Rolex. Can’t use “Roley Boyz” or “Roley Records” either……. But today a new regime starts & I am officially the CEO of “The Firm” & we are looking for elite artists to be a part of a new movement. With that being said…. Upload your SOUNDCLOUD in my comments NOW !!! Me & @leauxsteez will be listening to your music all day today…. So FOLLOW @leauxsteez & upload your SOUNDCLOUD or Tag someone who will benefit from the start of my new label & have them upload the link to their music on mine & @leauxsteez page NOW. Thanks… & I’m looking forward to all the dope new music – The Game
Young Noble Feat. Trae Tha Truth, AKK & Aleah Paige – Count Me Out (Video)
The Outlawz’ Young Noble drops off his latest visual from Son of God, out now.
@CleoSol – Teardrop
‘Teardrop’ is a beautiful mash-up of The Verve’s ‘Bitter Sweet Symphony’, Massive Attack’s ‘Teardrop’ and Cleo’s lyrics in the opening verse.
Paving the way for a new era of retro-futuristic soul-pop, the track showcases Cleo’s diversity as an artist. She has a style and sound that is truly her own, which along with her powerhouse vocals, make her stand out from the crowd. ‘Teardrop’ is the second new track that Cleo has released for fans to download free.
ALBUM STREAM: @AlunaGeorge – Body Music
