Azealia Banks Unleashes on Eminem with Blistering “School Shooter Music” Takedown

Azealia Banks never holds back when it comes to unfiltered opinions, and her latest target is none other than Eminem. The Harlem-born rapper, whose biting commentary is as noteworthy as her genre-defying music, set social media ablaze recently with a takedown of the Detroit rap legend. Once a Twitter user dared to invoke Eminem in one of her threads, Banks responded in classic fashion, pronouncing the record as “school shooter music.”

“No body wanna listen to that school shooter music,” Banks wrote in a tweet that quickly generated controversy. “This is hiphop, we don’t care or relate to white male anger and raps about wanting to kill your mother. ‘Stan’ is legendary for its own reasons but Eminem is just always too disturbed. One would think that at this point in his career he’d challenge himself to write even just ONE song that wasn’t about his mental illnesses. Eminem is always going to be that mad white guy nobody wanna f**k. When Eminem can make ONE a** shaker, and exhibit even 0.2 oz of sex appeal we can revisit. But vanilla ice was and is still the best white rapper of all time. Argue with ur mom.” It’s a tough criticism, but Azealia knows how to speak her mind.

Banks, who isn’t one to shy away from a tussle, added insult to injury by saying Eminem is “too disturbed” and asking why, after two decades in the game, he’s still rapping about mental illness instead of taking his artistry into unknown territory. “One would think, at this stage, in his career, he would challenge himself to write at least ONE song that’s not about his mental illnesses,” she quipped. Her assertion is that Vanilla Ice, not Eminem, is the best white rapper ever. “Vanilla Ice was the greatest white rapper’s all-time and still does. Fight ur mother,” she continued, repeating her opinion the way only Azealia can.

Although her comments will undoubtedly set Eminem stans and hip-hop purists alike into a frenzy, they also provide a more subtle perspective on Banks’ longstanding critique of mainstream rap culture, not to mention the glorification of trauma and rage. Yes, her delivery’s sharp-tongued and unforgiving, though it’s always seasoned with her trademark flair. Azealia Banks knows how to keep the pot boiling, whether you love or loathe her. And at a time when it’s safer to play it safe, her new diss track shows she’s still that in your face.

Meek Mill Draws Mixed Reactions With Drill Take on Nico & Vinz’s “Am I Wrong”

Meek Mill has released a couple of songs that leaked online recently, giving fans a proper way to hear the tracks after they popped up over the weekend. “Philly Heathens” has been praised for its attention to street culture and youth affected by violence, but his other new album, “Am I Wrong,” has received a much more divided response.

“Philly Heathens” has been praised for its lyrics about street culture and the young people who get caught up in violence. “Am I Wrong,” however, takes a vastly different approach, remixing the song of the same name by Nico & Vinz as a drill centric interpolation.

“Am I Wrong” is now 12 years old, and its connection to the EDM sound of the time makes it especially recognizable to those who grew up with it. So Meek’s take is built on a familiar musical reference, but the response has been far from universally complimentary. A lot of the criticism has been directed at the hook. The production has also been called dated, but the track was leaked, which may explain its sound. But the strongest reactions have focused on Meek’s chorus vocals.

Some of the responses have been good, though. Some listeners felt the track was a throwback to the blog era, while others thought the criticism targeted almost entirely the hook, not the song as a whole. One Reddit commenter wrote that the track was good, but the chorus was bad, suggesting that Meek’s performance on the rest of the song was better than the reception to the hook may suggest.

The different reactions demonstrate the contrast between Meek’s two new leaks. “Philly Heathens” has resonated with audiences for its subject matter, while “Am I Wrong” has sparked discussion due to its interpolation and vocal approach.

Both songs are now officially available on YouTube so that fans can decide for themselves. The response to “Am I Wrong” shows how difficult it is to reinterpret a well known song, especially when a recognizable hook becomes the centerpiece of the new version

Drake Joins Karol G in Houston for First Live Performance of “Ahi”

Drake made a surprise appearance in Houston this weekend, joining Karol G on stage for the first-ever live performance of their collaboration, “Ahi.”
The surprise appearance took place during Karol G’s show in Houston, where Drake jumped out from the bottom of the stage to perform the song with her. “Ahi” is the latest from Karol G’s project No Me Arrepiento de Sentir Tanto, and the Houston show marked the first time the pair had performed the collaboration together on stage.

Drake made his entrance to a loud reception from the crowd. The rapper popped out from under the stage, bowed to Karol G, hugged her, and launched into their collaboration. With “Ahi,” the performance was not over. Drake stayed on stage and carried on with the set, performing “Janice STFU” and “One Dance” and giving the Houston crowd a long set from the Canadian rapper.

The collaboration also sparked speculation about Drake’s upcoming music. A rumor started that Karol G was one of the collaborators on the project, along with Molly Santana and Future, days before ICEMAN is expected to drop. Future and Molly Santana were among the names on the rumored list, and Future ended up on “Run To Atlanta.”

Drake’s Houston appearance comes as he continues to promote music outside the traditional album release cycle. He released FOMO, a visual YouTube project featuring visuals for several songs from Habibti and Maid Of Honor nearly two weeks ago. The project also featured a couple of unreleased songs, including new material with Yeat and new unreleased music with Don Toliver.

Drake and Don Toliver have also dropped a remix of Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas.” The remix has recently sparked speculation about the artists after re uploaded visuals allegedly erased all footage of Langley.

But the Houston show shifted the focus back to Drake and Karol G. The surprise appearance turned the stop into the first live showcase of “Ahi” for the audience, while Drake’s renditions of “Janice STFU” and “One Dance” extended his surprise time onstage. It also gave fans their first chance to see the two artists perform their collaboration together, adding a live chapter to the release of “Ahi. “
