With Thanksgiving this week, Kendrick Lamar teasing Busta Rhymes' new album, and Eminem dropping the video for "Rap God", Twitter was certainly something to keep an eye on this week. As many other things also went down like Lil Durk premiering the "Dis Ain't What You Want Remix," these tweets of the week are definitely something you want to scroll through...
