March 7, 20223 yr Grime artist Dizzee Rascal has been found guilty of assaulting his former partner. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-60653545
March 25, 20223 yr Doja Cat has today announced her retirement from music. of course it’s more than likely she won’t actually given past precedent of rappers claiming their retirement.
May 10, 20223 yr Young Thug and Gunna are amongst those in YSL that have been arrested and Thugger in particular seems to be facing some serious charges. @1523849642714275841
May 15, 20223 yr Tough week for YSL - can't say that Young Thug et al. didn't have it coming to them if what they're being charged with is accurate (that's the end of Thugger's career most likely unless he has a lot of material to keep releasing from behind bars... Gunna will probably be ok though) but in unrelated and much sadder news one of the more recent up and coming signees of the label, Lil Keed, has passed away from kidney failure at age 24. He reminded me a lot of Young Thug so may have been in a good position to 'take his place' in the mainstream. This song was a banger: wB9S9WrstKE RIP.
May 29, 20223 yr Sidhu Moose Wala, who had a U.K. top 20 single in 2019 with ‘47’ has been murdered today aged 28.

September 13, 20222 yr Oh that's terrible :( I knew of him via the aforementioned 'Cross Me' which was easily the highlight of that Ed era for me, RIP </3
September 16, 20222 yr so Drake is now beefing with… Youtube music critic Anthony Fantano :lol: https://i.imgur.com/JqL3yay.jpg
September 16, 20222 yr Cardi B has admitted two offences arising from a brawl in a strip club, as part of a deal that means she will avoid a trial and possible jail time. The Grammy-winning rapper, born Belcalis Almanzar, pleaded guilty to third-degree assault and second-degree reckless endangerment, and was sentenced to 15 days community service. Ten other charges were dismissed.
September 17, 20222 yr so Drake is now beefing with… Youtube music critic Anthony Fantano :lol: https://i.imgur.com/JqL3yay.jpg The context behind this is actually hilarious. He leaked those DMs in response to Fantano trolling him by making a video about receiving a DM from him... except editing it to make it appear Drake just sent him a recipe for vegan cookies. Drake could have just ran with that and appeared slightly goofy but instead he was fully baited into leaking his own DMs and making himself look really bad in the process
