Here's the ridiculous story behind J Cole's 2016 track Neighbors. The song was inspired by a raid on his home, after neighbors and police believed he was selling drugs due to his friends frequently coming over to work at his home studio. They failed to find anything and J Cole got the last laugh as he used footage of the raid in the official Neighbors music video. #jcole #neighbors #hiphopupdates #rapshorts #rapnews #coleworld #neighborstories #rapperlife

Travis Scott has been out of the public eye for over a year now. Following the Astroworld tragedy he took a step back from the spotlight and brands many of his brand deals faded away. While it may seems he's been in hiding, Cactus Jack has actually been busy rebuilding his image, he's founded a charity, made large donations, and held events for the community. #utopia #travisscott #cactusjack #hiphopnews #rapnews #rapshorts #raplifestyle #astroworld

Ice Spice quickly became a household name in the rap game but her success didn’t happen overnight. Ice Spice grew up in the Bronx and attended a catholic highschool. She then went on to Purchase College to play volleyball and try out acting. When that failed she made the jump into music after seeing the success of fellow Bronx rapper Pop Smoke. Just about a year later she hit it big with her first viral track “Munch”. #icespice #popsmoke #rapculture #raplifestyle #hiphopculture #rapnews #rapshorts #trending #trendingshorts

Kid Cudi and Lupe Fiasco have been taking shots at each other on Twitter since 2015. Cudi had a tough 2022, from dodging water bottles at Rolling Loud to backlash from pulling his tracks off of Soundcloud. To make things worse, Lupe has just made it clear that the beef won't be ending anytime soon. #shorts #rapshorts #rapnews #kidcudi #lupefiasco #trendingshorts

DJ Khaled gets a lot of hate from the rap community and you may not understand why. I took a look at some of the biggest reasons people hate on the father of Asahd and there sure are a lot. From his obnoxious yelling on songs to his use of ghost producers, lousy live performances, and misogynistic views. It seems you could go on and on about why people hate DJ Khaled. #djkhaled #goddid #hiphopculture #producers

Eminem linked up with Dr.Dre after a chance encounter with an intern. It took only 10 minutes in the studio for Dre and Shady to produce their first record "My Name Is" which went on to be one of Eminem's biggest hits. #eminem #rappers #rapnews #rapculture #hiphop #hiphopnews #rapshorts #shorts

Beyond the recent accusations surrounding Kai Cenat it seems many are fed up with his antics and overall obnoxious behavior. While Kai had an insanely successful 2022, becoming the most subscribed streamer on #twitch We may have already seen the peak of his career. If Kai Cenat fails to adapt and market himself to a broader audience its likely his future could be doomed. #kaicenat #kaimafia #twitch #twitchstreamer #reaction #kaicenatclips #trending #shorts

With the ongoing RICO case against Young Thug and members of YSL, many question what would happen if the defendants had chosen to remain silent and decline offers from the prosecution. That’s exactly what happened in Waco Texas in 2015. After all 106 defendants failed to provide a statement the case was dismissed and not a single person was ever sent to prison. #youngthug #gunna #rapnews #rapculture #rapshorts #RICO #atlanta #ysl #shorts #trendingshorts

Rick Ross is The Boss and he’s known for handling business. Rozay said he saves nearly a MILLION dollars each year just by cutting his own grass. So after receiving an outrageous quote of $10,000 to cut down some trees, it was no surprise that he made the decision to do it himself. #rickross #rozay #rapculture #entrepreneurs #rapperlifestyle #rapnews #rapshorts #short #trending

2022 was a ROUGH YEAR for RAP. We lost a number of amazing artists such as PnB Rock and TakeOff. Then there’s those who managed to destroy their own careers like Ye, Young Thug, Gunna, and Lil Baby. But I've listed a few you probably haven't considered. Lil Pump, Lil Mosey, and of course Tory Lanez have been trending downward over the past year and things are not looking bright for their future. #youngthug #torylanez #lilmosey #lilbaby #rapnews #rapperslife #rapculture #hiphopshorts #rapshorts #shorts

Blueface is currently signed to four different record labels that are each taking a percentage of his earnings. Blueface was such a big Lil Wayne fan that he signed to Cash Money West, a Cash Money Records Subsidiary label under both Republic and Universal Records. This puts him under four levels of management that he must conduct business with. #blueface #rapperlifestyle #rapnews #rapculture #rapshorts #shorts #trending

Did Gunna agree to testify against Young Thug by taking a plea deal? Or did a lack of evidence force the prosecution into offering a deal too good for the rapper to pass up? While Gunna’s legal team says he didn’t snitch we likely won’t know for sure until the trial moves forward. Let’s hope Gunna made the right decision and can put this whole ordeal behind him. #gunna #wunna #youngthug #rico #rapnews #rapculture #rapshorts #shorts

A major hack in the music industry has led to a number of Atlanta Rappers having their music released without their permission.
