Today in Hip-Hop History: Jeru The Damaja Releases ‘The Wrath Of The Math’ 24 Years Ago
On this date in 1996, Gangstarr Foundation representative Jeru The Damaja of the Dirty Rotten Scoundrels dropped his sophomore LP Wrath Of The Math on the Payday/Polygram imprint.
Serving as a continuation from his debut album The Sun Rises In The East, Jeru’s second album contained more of the social consciousness in his lyrical content as on The Sun album, complete with part two to the “Can’t Stop The Prophet” saga in his fight against “Mr. Ignorance.” Produced exclusively by behind the boards legend DJ Premier, Wrath Of The Math was the perfect combination of intelligence, lyrical dexterity and head-bangin’ production.
Some of the key tracks that propelled the album include “One Day”, where Jeru hypothetically went to Puff Daddy and Suge Knight in an attempt to save Hip-Hop, “The Bullshit”, an imaginary ode to studio gangsters, “Physical Stamina”, which features the album’s only guest appearance by Afu-Ra and the project’s trademark track “Ya Playin’ Yaself”.
Salute to Jeru, Premier, DRS, the Gangstarr Foundation and the whole East New York for this timeless piece of Hip Hop history!

Lil Baby Set the Stage For A “Totally Different” Vibe Amid New Music Teases
Fans are buzzing with excitement after Lil Baby hinted on social media that a “totally different” chapter in his career is on the way. The Atlanta rapper is gearing up to make a significant impact in the hip-hop world with a new album and a fresh perspective. This week, he shared a heartfelt message on Instagram, opening up about some tough times he faced over the past two years. He wrote, “Ain’t It Cra*y How They Tryna Play Me Like I Ain’t The One!!! It’s That Time! I Would Say Again, But This Run Will Be Totally Different!!” His words showed his confidence and suggested he was ready to bring something new to his music.
Lil Baby has already given fans a taste of this new direction with his latest single, “5AM.” But what’s really getting people excited is his collaborations with other big names like Travis Scott, Future, and especially Young Thug, who has just been released from jail. Their teamwork is especially noteworthy since Young Thug has hinted at working on something with Lil Baby, leading fans to think a new song might drop soon.
However, there’s some drama surrounding these developments. New rumors suggest there might be tension between Young Thug and Gunna, which could involve Lil Baby, especially concerning some ongoing controversies. After Young Thug made a brief and cryptic post on social media, fans are curious to see if Lil Baby’s new path will also involve taking sides.
Regardless of the drama, Lil Baby shows determination as he builds excitement for a deeply personal project. He’s already previewed some new songs during his concerts, making it clear that he’s ready to make his mark in the industry again. Whether this comeback is a gradual buildup or a sudden splash, one thing is sure: Lil Baby is prepared to shake things up. With a fresh outlook and a lineup of powerhouse collaborators, his return is shaping up to be a pivotal moment in his career.

Attorney Tony Buzbee Pushes Legal Crusade Against Celebrities Linked to Diddy’s Alleged Parties
The legal situation surrounding Diddy is heating up as prominent lawyer Tony Buzbee expands his efforts beyond just the music mogul himself. Buzbee is known for representing more than 120 people who have accused Sean “Diddy” Combs of misconduct. Now, he is also looking at other celebrities who may have been at Diddy’s infamous parties, where allegations of bad behavior occurred. Buzbee is sending a strong message to those who ignored what was happening: they need to either pay up or may face lawsuits that could seriously harm their reputations.
In a recent appearance on TMZ’s documentary titled The Downfall Of Diddy: Inside The Freak-Offs, Buzbee talked about the responsibility of celebrities who attended these events. He highlighted that those who saw or heard about alleged sexual abuse and drugging yet chose to stay silent are just as guilty as the ones accused. Buzbee revealed that some of these stars have already received letters demanding they settle privately or risk facing public lawsuits.
This situation has significant implications. Buzbee’s tough stance comes as personalities like Ray J speak up, claiming that various stars have contacted him worried about their involvement. Ray J has been vocal about Diddy’s alleged misdeeds and suggested that some celebrities try settling with victims before more accusations come to light. It’s unclear if Ray J’s claims indicate real legal trouble or growing anxiety among those involved, but Buzbee’s push for accountability adds a new twist to the ongoing story.
Focused initially on Diddy, this legal battle now shows how famous figures can get caught up in high-profile scandals. As Diddy faces serious federal and criminal cases, the potential consequences for others connected to him are becoming more evident. For now, Tony Buzbee is committed to seeking justice, clarifying that being famous won’t protect anyone from the law. Whether these efforts lead to public trials or quiet settlements, it’s clear that pressure is building for those linked to Diddy’s controversial events.
