HEROES & VILLAINS is Metro Boomin’s sophomore studio album, following his November 2018 project NOT ALL HEROES WEAR CAPES.
HEROES & VILLAINS was revealed to the world on November 18, 2021, when Metro’s close friend DJ Holiday revealed a note about a new project, reading:
DJ Holiday,
I cannot believe it’s been 3 years since we released NOT ALL HEROES WEAR CAPES.
The project’s status was left in the dark until September 16, 2022 when Metro released an album announcement through YouTube—ultimately revealing a November 4 release date.
Meek Mill is sharing his takes on some of rap’s biggest hits in his latest mixtape, Flamerz 5.
Clocking in at 40 minutes, the 15-track project features guest appearances from Tafia, Yung Ro, Vory, Kur and Fridayy and hears Mill deliver his own bars over the beats of DJ Khaled’s “GOD DID,” Ice Spice’s “Munch (Feelin’ U),” Drake, Future and Tems’ “Wait For U,” Lil baby’s “Forever,” GloRilla’s “Tomorrow” and more. Flamerz 5 is only available to stream on Audiomack after the rapper last week tweeted that he does not want it on other streaming services. “This strictly underground music…Billboard can’t rate it…Just rate the music…I’d bet you a million I can make the United States/world play it with one upload button…Been doing it since MySpace lol,” he added.
Elon Musk was met with a mixture of boos and cheers over the weekend when he made a surprise appearance during Dave Chappelle’s show in San Francisco.
The comedian welcomed the tech billionaire and Twitter owner to the Chase Center stage Sunday night. Videos of Musk’s appearance have circulated online.
“Ladies and gentlemen, make some noise for the richest man in the world,” Chappelle said, according to one video shared online by an account that no longer exists as of Monday morning.
The crowd erupted in cheers, which was quickly overwhelmed with audible cries of “boo!” as Musk, sporting an "I love Twitter" shirt, waved to the arena.
“Cheers and boos, I see,” Chappelle said as Musk shrugged to the audience.
“Controversy, buddy. It sounds like some of the people you fired are in the audience,” the comedian said to the laughter of the crowd and Musk.
Shortly after taking over Twitter, Musk's team announced widespread layoffs at the company in November. He has faced intense scrutiny over his leadership and position over loose content moderation policies.
“Dave, what should I say?” Musk asked at one point on stage.
Megan Thee Stallion said fellow hip-hop artist Tory Lanez ordered her to "dance" before he shot her feet in 2020 after a party in the Hollywood Hills.
Megan Thee Stallion, 27, whose real name is Megan Jovon Ruth Pete, took the stand Tuesday, the second day of Lanez's assault trial.
She testified she felt "shock" and "hurt" and saw blood on her feet after Lanez shot her following a party at Kylie Jenner's home on July 12 of that year, City News Service reported.
She told jurors that just after she was shot, Lanez offered her $1 million to keep quiet. She testified that Lanez, 30, whose real name is Daystar Peterson, made the offer because he was on probation, according to CNS.
She said she got back into the vehicle with Lanez and two other people because she was wearing a thong bikini and felt her manager would know what to do if she could contact him. She also testified she didn't know Lanez had a gun that night, the news service reported.
Police stopped the vehicle and ordered all of the occupants out. Megan Thee Stallion said she told police she had injured her feet on glass when they asked why she was bleeding, according to the news agency.
DJ Stephen tWitch Boss, who got famous manning the turntables on Ellen Degeneres' talk show, is gone at age 40.
He was found dead from an apparent self-inflicted gun wound yesterday in a Los Angeles hotel room.
Shortly before his body was discovered, tWitch's wife Allison Hooker ran to a Los Angeles police station and expressed concern because her husband had left the house without his car, which he had never done before.
Boss began DJing Ellen's show and 2014 and remained until it ended this year.
He started a career as a dancer and appeared in the Step Up movie franchise.
He had three young children with Hooker.
Kanye West, you can never really tell what you’re going to get, especially on social media. On Thursday night, Kanye dropped a bombshell revelation, accusing Phoenix Suns point guard Chris Paul of having an affair with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian.

Kanye just came out of nowhere with that tweet that no one definitely saw coming.
An investigation has been sparked at Michigan's Macomb Correctional Facility after two inmates filmed a rap video that was posted on YouTube.
The video shows one of the inmates on a cell phone, which is prohibited in prisons. Michigan Department of Corrections spokesman Chris Gautz addressed the incident, stating, "It’s incredibly dangerous [to have phones inside state prisons], especially with capability of getting onto the internet because they can be used to arrange escapes, harass witnesses, or place ‘hits’ on people inside or outside the prison."
December may have just started, but it’s going to be hard for it to get any more bizarre after Kanye West set the bar high on Thursday in an unfiltered interview with Alex Jones in which Ye made some of the most shocking statements of his career.
A fully masked Ye went on Alex Jones’ show on the website Infowars on Thursday where he spent almost three hours discussing his opinion on religion, politics, art, the media, Hollywood, Donald Trump, and much more.
Young Thug’s legal team filed a motion to have his Thug’s lyrics, along with social media posts and music videos, removed from evidence. The rapper’s attorney stated that using his client’s speech and artistry as evidence can be considered a “Constitutional Violation” and “an abuse of discretion.” His attorney argues that Thug’s lyrics are protected under the Constitution. The legal team further argues that using his lyrics and speech against his client is “racist and discriminatory because the jury will be so poisoned and prejudiced by these lyrics/poetry/artistry/speech.
