Some of you may remember Mr. Muthafuckin eXquire. His 2011 hit "Huzzah" spawned an all-star remix featuring Danny Brown and El-P and a record deal with Universal. Since then...not much. Despite being dropped by Universal, the foul-mouthed New Yorker has released a few mixtapes since the apex of his Internet buzz, the most recent of which was released yesterday. eXq...

Why wait? Did the thing before 2015. #mrandmrsrbridges A photo posted by @ludacris on Jan 1, 2015 at 2:38pm PST It was a ludicrous Christmas in Ludacris' house this past December.

From the wreckage of Raider Klan emerged Denzel Curry. The Miami rapper's 2013 full length, Nostalgic 64 was highly acclaimed, and though solo work has been sparse, he's filled the intervening time with numerous guest verses and a tour with Deniro Farrar. To sate ...

Now that Joey Bada$$ has the attention of Malia Obama, he's looking for the attentions of the Billboard Top 40 with new single "Teach Me," featuring singer Kiesza. "Teach Me" is a sunny day dance track, perfect for picturesque barbecues or compact car commercials, with Kiesza pleading over horns to "Let teach you how to dance...

Rowdy Rebel, Bobby Shmurda and Too $hort are rapping over a bounce instrumental on "She All About The Shmoney." Yes, you read that correctly. Regionalism in rap music is well and truly dead, so Jahlil Beats mined the depths of Mannie Fresh's hard drive to lace the now-imprisoned GS9 members, and Oakland's foremost pimp/rapper, with a beat full of cowbells and a quasi-"Drag Rap"

The artist formerly known as Ron Artest has, once again, changed his name, albeit briefly. Metta World Peace, currently of the Sichuan Blue Whales, decided on a moniker change to "Metta Minaj" between Saturday 27 and Monday 30. Peace's short-term change was prompted by, unsurprisingly, a Nicki Minaj lyric from her song "Trini Dem Girls," where she raps "He said he wants a

Modesty has never been LL Cool J's strong suit. In an interview with Rap-Up, the NCIS star claimed that to miss out on his upcoming album, G.O.A.T. 2, would be a travesty. But, more importantly, that the album contains collaborations with Eminem and Raekwon. ...

DJ Drama's hot run looks to continue the release of Young Money Yawn's upcoming tape, Street Gospel 2. The initial Street Gospel featured "Gutta Gutta," the Virginia rapper's breakthrough hit. Virginia is talent-rich, and Young Money Yawn looks to carry the torch left by other VA greats that includes Pharrell, The Clipse, Timbaland, and Missy Elliott. Str...
