Slaughterhouse album was okay I suppose.

Excited for the R. Kelly tour, Cruel Summer, and No Malice's EP.

FUCK Chief Keef.

And I would buy the Lil Wayne Beats by Dre headphones if they can translate him into a language I can understand.

sukk dikk for trukkfitt

-wayne

"Suck dick for TrukFit!!1!1!!1!1!!1"
"You suck, quit."

What, Tyga?

Never listened to Roman reloaded. Still has solid verses every once in a while but I've pretty much started giving up on Nicki

Also huge fan of Joey bada$$. Can't wait to hear his new mixtape.

Thought gravity was a full release and not a mixtape? Amazing album either way. Lovin Lecrae

When I think of R. Kelly on tour, I think of Aziz Ansari's stand up.

Who can top dat shit!? who can top dat shit!? who can top dat shit! Who can top dat shit!?
Whooaa, Ain't nobody gonna top dat shit.... I'm out.


haha and

Reporter: Now Robert, are you attracted to teenage girls?

R. Kelly: Define teenage

When I go to the R. Kelly show, if a spotlight doesn't shoot out of his cock, I'm demanding my money back.

Oh, and I still have a ton of faith in Lupe Fiasco (I feel like the minority on that) so if he really quits over Chief Keef being ignorant as fuck and ruining his city then fuck Chief Keef even more.

Stoked for slaughterhouse.

chief keef did not "ruin" the city. this whole situation says more about the city of chicago than 1 measly rapper who hasnt been in the spotlight for more than a year.

I was paraphrasing, but yes, you're right. He's just adding to the situation.
