Machine Gun Kelly has packed his spitfire personality and rapid rhymes into his latest EP BINGE, now available on all digital platforms. The project comes during a high-profile time for the rapper who just made headlines with controversial diss track, “Rap Devil,” which debuted this week at #13 on the Billboard Hot 100 while also peaking at #1 on iTunes. Machine Gun Kelly emerged as a force to be reckoned with, unleashing his fury on the four-verse track. MGK also treats fans to an intensely personal video for the EP track, “Lately”. The expectedly dark video emphasizes the rapper’s present state of mind as he lyrically weaves in details of his life.

The eight-track project also features the single, “LOCO,” produced by BazeXX and SlimXX. Released last month, the song was accompanied by a haunting visual which featured a cameo by actor, Pete Davidson. Over the summer, MGK hosted his annual EST Festival in Butler, Ohio before joining Fall Out Boy on The M A N I A Tour. In addition to music, the Cleveland artist recently appeared as Tommy Lee in the upcoming Motley Crue biopic, The Dirt, and is set to star in Sandra Bullock’s new film, Bird Box. BINGE marks MGK’s first major effort since 2017’s bloom.

Cardi B, Travis Scott Rumored to Perform at 2019 Super Bowl Halftime

Many Hip Hop fans (and Waka Flocka Flame) were upset when news broke that Maroon 5 has been confirmed as the entertainers for the 2019 NFL Super Bowl Halftime Show in Atlanta this year. Luckily for the Hip Hop fans, Cardi B and Travis Scott are rumored to be on the short list of guests to perform with the band.

As per a Sept. 20 report from Billboard, official guest haven’t been confirmed, but Bardi and La Flame are two of the fans who are allegedly being considered. The NFL fueled the rumor in a comment made in a statement to the publication but left details under wraps.

“It’s a Super Bowl tradition to speculate about the performers for the Pepsi Halftime Show,” it reads. “We are continuing to work with Pepsi on our plans but do not have any announcements to make on what will be another epic show.”

Cardi B would make sense considering that she has a song with Maroon 5 which is presently No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Given her connections to Atlanta through her husband, Offset, many have speculated that should Cardi show up, she could bring out Migos also.

Travis Scott, as a Houston local, unquestionably has a down-south association. He’s additionally had a fruitful year since his ASTROWORLD album dropped.

Despite who gets decided for the guest appearances, Cardi and Travis in any event have another thing to bond over. Both respected their first child to the world this year.

Waka Flocka Drags NFL for not Selecting an Atlanta Artist for 2019 Super Bowl Halftime Show

Maroon 5 is set to perform at the 2019 Super Bowl Halftime Show, but every person is not feeling the NFL’s decision of entertainment. Considering the big game is happening in Atlanta, Waka Flocka thought it will be fit to have an Atlanta artist like Migos, Future, or himself to represent.

Talking with TMZ on Wednesday (Sept. 19), Waka said it wasn’t reasonable for the association to pick an artist that doesn’t hail from the Georgia city. “I think the Super Bowl, you should have somebody that’s from Atlanta, representing Atlanta… They need somebody from Atlanta, it’s only right,” he said. “It’s not fair, but this the NFL we talkin’ about—they’re not fair.”

Waka likewise pointed at the NFL’s issues with Colin Kaepernick and said the group could have made a greater effort to support him. “You’re coming to the biggest Black state in America,” the rapper continued. “Why wouldn’t you let a Black artist perform and show the world that we’re progressing? That’s not cool.”

While Migos and Future undoubtedly won’t be at the show, another report from Billboard suggests that Cardi B and Travis Scott could be joining Maroon 5 in Atlanta. Cardi has worked with the group for their hit single, “Girls Like You.”

Despite the fact that it’s only talk, a rep for the band declined to remark on the report, while the NFL expressed, “It’s a Super Bowl convention to conjecture about the entertainers for the Pepsi Halftime Show. We are proceeding to work with Pepsi on our plans yet don’t have any declarations to make on what will be another epic show.”

A year ago, Cardi shot down the idea of playing at the Super Bowl Halftime Show, saying she wouldn’t perform until Kaepernick got a deal. “When they hire Colin Kaepernick back,” she said to TMZ.

Ella Mae Releases New Video For ‘Trip’

Ella Mae drops off her new video for the “Boo’d Up” follow up.

On Tuesday, Ella Mae dropped a music video for her newest single, “Trip.” The song speaks to Mae’s feelings after being “Boo’d Up” for the summer. With “Trip” she’s feeling the need to fall back after possibly catching feeling too early. While “Boo’d Up” featured a male co-star, “Trip” does not. Instead, it features the 10 Summers artist solo. She sits calmly on the couch, in the car, and on the court as she sings the soft, sensual lyrics. “Trip” follows a successful summer for the British artist.

Last month she rapped up her 15 city US tour. Her debut track has spent 24 weeks on the Hot 100 charts, peaking at number 5 for two weeks. In addition, the single has been certified double platinum. There has been no word on Mae’s debut album, but you can assure that an announcement will be made soon. With the early, warm reception from “Trip,” Mae looks to perpetuate her Summer success into the Fall.

Her most recent track caught the attention of “London” crooner, Jacquees. The Atlanta artist is renowned for remixing R&B joints and making them his own. He calls it a “Quemix,” and he did no different with “Trip.” Jacquees’ remix could possibly lead to a collaboration with the 24-year-old British artist. The possibility only excites R&B fans. Hopefully, the remix foreshadows that the two singers will work together soon. Be sure to peep Ella Mae’s new visual as well as Jacquees’ “Quemix.”

Lady Gaga Speaks on the Abrupt Cancellation of Joint Tour With Kanye West

Lady Gaga is currently on a press tour promoting her forthcoming film, A Star is Born. She sat down with Bossip and was asked about the abrupt cancellation of her 2009 joint tour with Kanye West called Fame Kills, following Ye’s outburst to Taylor Swift at the VMAs that year.

In 2016, West confessed that the cancellation of the tour was the “beginning of the end of my life.”

Gaga didn’t get into specifics. Instead, she gracefully answered the question looping back in the point of the interview, which is the film, and noted that the film also touches on mental health issues.

“Everybody has a threshold and everybody’s a human. And artists are human,” she said. “I think that this film [A Star is Born] also deals with mental health issues, substance abuse, addiction, [and] a lot of trauma as well (…) I think it’s important to take care of people and to look out for the mental health. I think there’s nothing wrong with it, if an artist needs to stop it’s them listening to their body and their mind.”

Co-star, Bradley Cooper, also chimed in and gave his two cents. Watch the video in its entirety below:

YG Takes Aim at 6ix9ine in ‘Bulletproof’ Video

You thought YG forgot about that beef he had with Tekashi 6ix9ine? Not hardly. The West Coast representative released the video for the single “Bulletproof” from STAY DANGEROUS and takes aim at his foe with the supporting video.

If the rainbow being tagged with the word “Pedophile” wasn’t enough to make 6ix9ine feel some type of way, perhaps the visual of a Tekashi look alike entering jail and not receiving a warm welcome from fellow inmates will ruffle his feathers.

Long story short, the beef is definitely on and YG wants the smoke. Peep the video below and if you need a refresher of the beef, be sure to go peep YG’s visit to The Breakfast Club.

Australian Producer Royalz Releases New Album With Shady Records Conway and Roc Marci

Melbourne-based producer Royalz has recently released his debut album Live 95 on local imprint GRHYME Productions. The impressive debut features the likes of Conway aka Conway The Machine of Shady Records / Interscope and Roc Marci aka Roc Marciano over a stacked 12-tracks will no fillers. A hip-hop purist at heart, Live 95 is the capstone project so far in a career spanning almost 15 years and a dozen or so various releases of sorts since his Sinergy Crew days. Steadily honing and building his craft, this release promises to help elevate Royalz to the next level that his production now commands.

The quality release is interesting in the sense that it combines two top quality feature verses from American emcees currently at the top of their game with a mixture of verses from well established Australian emcees including Kings Konekted, Tornts, Dialect, Hau, One Sixth, DownPat, Bigfoot of Hired Goons, Angus Younga plus New Yorks’ SmooVth.

Royalz over recent years has been highly prolific on the remix, churning out an impressive catalog of high-quality remixes from the likes of Hau, Delta, Trem, Bias B, Vents, Brad Strut and his trio of Man vs Maschine releases. It will be interesting to see where Royalz goes next, but for now, he joins a growing list of Australian producers making their significant mark on hip-hop beyond their home country currently which includes the likes of M-Phazes, Kronic, Ghosts In The Room, Katalyst and Discourse.
