Jim Jones gives credit where credit is due. Following the release of his excellent El Capo project, Jim Jones sat down with Brian Miller and Elliott Wilson for an episode of Tidal’s “Rap Radar” podcast. Given the extensive runtime of each conversation, there tends to be plenty to unpack in a given installment. Case in point, Jones’ reflection on facilitating …

Another infamous tale with the great Tupac. Although it has been nearly 25 years since Tupac passed, new stories concerning the late rapper constantly resurface thanks to his then entourage. The last rare story we reported revolved around Tupac listening to Illmatic during his 1994 trial and now, a few days ago, Jermaine Hopkins shared a new one. Jermaine Hopkins, who played …

He claims he was just defending himself. Unfortunately for Lil Xan, the comments he made about Tupac during an interview last year will likely follow him around for the remainder of his music career. Tupac is a legend and, especially in hip-hop, it’s important to respect the people who paved the way for you. When he rated Pac’s clout as …

Suge Knight Jr. previously suggested that Tupac was still alive. The circumstances regarding Tupac Shakur’s death are still so cloudy. We don’t really know what happened on the last night of his life and we probably never will. Because of that, people have always come through with conspiracy theories about who killed the rap superstar and whether or not he’s …

Commenters aren’t too happy about Suge’s inclusion. Every Thursday (and usually every other day), you can count on Snoop Dogg to post a few throwbacks to remind everybody of how far back he goes. Viewed as one of the absolute living legends, Uncle Snoop is a fan of sharing his wisdom to the younger generations and he facilitates the process …

Investigators believe he was in the car that fired upon Suge Knight & Tupac. One could say that there are as many Tupac Shakur murder conspiracy theories as there are stars in the sky. When the 25-year-old rapper was gunned down in Las Vegas, gangs and cops alike stood accused of taking down the influential hip hop figure. A suspect …

Snoop and Pac are looking snazzy in this throwback shot. Having been around some of the greats and enjoying a legendary career himself, Snoop Dogg has tons of memories to share with his fans on a regular basis. He can probably post one photo every day for several years and we wouldn’t get bored. The Doggfather has spent time with some of …

Tupac’s estate has issued a statement on Nipsey’s passing. The world lost a good one this weekend. Nipsey Hussle was somebody that did not pose a threat to the community. He worked hard to rebuild his Crenshaw neighborhood and became a hero to many of the young kids growing up in Los Angeles. With one suspect identified in his murder, the hunt is officially on …

Kodak Black is trying to level up on this week’s edition of contentious comments. There’s an argument to be made about how Kodak Black doesn’t get the credit he deserves as a rapper. Dying To Live was a testament to his depth as an artist and his overall skill set.  Despite constantly being categorized as a mumble rapper, he recently hopped on Instagram Live …

T.I.’s latest take might be his most controversial so far. There are tons of rappers who’ve compared themselves to Tupac over the years. Boosie called one of his projects BooPac,Troy Ave called himself the NewPac, and plenty of others have likened themselves to the legendary emcee. T.I.’s the latest rapper to compare himself to Tupac, most recently calling himself the only other artist …
