hip hop's new daily operation | 5.22.20

May 22, 2020

TheMotto No. 19. iHeartMedia’s The Breakfast Club stays winning and CThaGod continues to be a masterful provocateur. He has a knack for getting folks to speak their minds. Today’s one-on-one convo between Charlamagne and presumptive Democratic Presidential nominee Joe Biden is still running the global news cycle as we publish. Biden’s controversial statements are made toward the end of the interview below.

Diddy @Diddy

Aye bruh @JoeBiden I already told you the #BlackVoteAintFree

NEW: Former VP Joe Biden just dialed into a U.S. Black Chamber call and addressed his remarks to Charlamagne tha God. Biden said, "I shouldn't have been such a wise guy. I shouldn't have been so cavalier...I have never, ever taken the African American community for granted."

It’s obviously “FDT,” but you must respect us.

Man, if you enjoy going to the Caribbean on vacation make sure you also support the culture and watch the @verzuzonline battle between Bounty Killer and Beenie Man!!!

Young Guru @Young_Guru

Remember this is dancehall. Bounty Killa & Beenie Man could play 50 records and not even touch the surface of the catalog. I may have to do the cheat sheet for this one. I’m hype. No one has bust more artist than Bounty Killa.

what more can I say:

Part of my afternoon was spent talking with Russ, the wildly successful rapper/producer whose views on music and the music business always get the people going — he believes in staying creative, staying independent, staying paid, and well, you can hear for yourself on #TIDALCheckIn ⤵️
