Atlanta rapper Father(I know the name is pretty strange) is gearing up to drop two new projects, in hopes of taking his career to the next level. First he’s going to drop a project with Lex Luger titled Man, Somebody Get These New Niggas EP, and then he’s going to drop an album in 2016 called I’m A Piece of Shit. Very strange project names, but Father doesn’t do anything ordinary. Hit the jump for more.
iLoveMakonnen Gives An Update On His Relationship With Drake
When singer iLoveMakonnen’s song “Tuesday” started gaining traction in 2014, Drake saw an opportunity, and not only hopped on the official remix, but signed Makonnen to his OVO Sound imprint as well. Since then, however, we haven’t seen or heard much about their relationship, and Makonnen‘s buzz has simmered down rather substantially as well. Unsurprisingly, this led to rumors ranging from beef between the guys and even contracts being terminated, but in a new interview with FADER, Makonnen provided an update on it all. “It’s cool,” he said of his status at OVO. “They put out my music and stuff and we just keep it moving. Let them tell you their relationship with Makonnen. I’m just an artist, being an artist, and there’s only so much that I can do.”

(Video) Meek Mill Forces Fan To Take Down Drake Sign During #FoolsGold Concert In Brooklyn
Anddddddd the Drake vs. Meek saga continues! This Labor Day was an eventful one in Brooklyn during the annual Fool’s Gold concert. After rocking on the set, popular DJ A-Trak got the crowd hyped by bringing out ILoveMakonnen, A$AP Ferg (who announced his second album is on the way) and BK’s own Fabolous. “White Iverson” rapper Post Malone also hit the stage along with Flatbush Zombies, Skepta, Fame School plus many others throughout the day-long festival. The main attraction of the night was Dream Chaser’s own Meek Mill. When he came out to deliver his energetic performance, he noticed there was a fan in the crowd with a Drake sign. Mr. Philadelphia called him out ASAP and made Deen – a member of his DC crew – go stand by him throughout the entire concert. “You got a real shooter next to you now,” he announced. Meek then proceeded to jump into the crowd, making the ONLY mosh pit I’ve ever seen in my life! (I got hit a few times but these are the things one must do to get good video footage for you all..LOL!) Check out some of the video clips from the music festival below.
