Source: theo wargo / Getty Throughout his 25-year career, Jay-Z has had his fair share of hip hop beefs. But the beautiful thing about elevating in life is that you find peace in your heart to let all the pettiness cease. Even altercations that you think can’t be undone, Hov is proof that time heals all wounds. On Friday, the Brooklyn legend performed his B-sides set at New York City’s Webster Hall for the venue’s highly anticipated reopening, and needless to say, he was unapologetically New York. View this post on Instagram #JAYZ x #BSides2 A post shared by Roc Nation (@rocnation) on Apr 26, 2019 at 11:19pm PDT Jay brought out one-time rival Nas to perform their 2007 track “Success” followed by the classic “Dead Presidents”, then the Queens legend closed out their set with “New York State of Mind”. Nas and Hov have been cool for over 13 years now, after an epic beef that literally changed the course of hip hop and rap battles as we knew it to be. View this post on Instagram You represent an era when albums were very raw, bold and true to self…and you still do! Last night was Epic, you gave life to songs that get forgotten or slept on …it was an honor to share the stage with you and to be a part of Bsides. #BSides2 A post shared by Nasir Jones (@nas) on Apr 27, 2019 at 6:48am PDT But one of the illest beefs of Jay’s career was during his departure from Roc-A-Fella records Dipset was becoming the new faces of the label. The group’s frontman, and Dame Dash ‘s Harlem brother, Cam’ron was not one to back down from the then untouchable, glorified Hov. The battle of the egos caused some real drama for both Jay, Cam and the label as a whole. Jim Jones also was also a huge part of the Jigga vs. Dipset era. The beef between Cam and Jay started way before their days at Roc-A-Fella, but most notably, it kicked off in 2000, shortly after Hov stabbed Cam’s label head Lance “Un” Rivera. That same year, Cam’ron released his second LP S.D.E. which featured a cameo from Destiny’s Child on the song “Do It Again.” It also featured the song “Let Me Know,” which included numerous subliminal shots at Hov: “You rap about money, man, who are you anyway?” “When the f— we start bouncin’?”. Fast forward to 2002, Cam signs to the Roc and even does a song with Jay, “Welcome To New York City,” — but then ish hit the fan. While Jay-Z was away on vacation, Jim Jones announces that Cam’ron has been made a Vice President at Roc-A-Fella. Needless to say, Hov wasn’t too thrilled with the direction the label was headed in. Fast forward again to 2004, Jay-Z, Dame and Biggs sell their 50% interest in Roc-A-Fella to Def Jam and is made President of Def Jam. However, Cam, Jim and the rest of Dipset stayed loyal to Dame. For several year following the split, Dipset released several tracks dissing Jay-Z, with Cam even alleging that Hov blocked him from taking the VP job at Roc-A-Fella. He also claims that a gunman who shot him in Washington, DC one year earlier in a botched carjacking threw up the ROC’s diamond hand signal. Hov finally clapped back in 2006 with his track “Dig A Hole,” rapping: “N—-s are like why don’t you get at old boy/Why kill the puppet it leaves Gapeto alive/Why not wait to catch them all together this way you dig one big hole one time.” Dame also said at the time that the beef reallys started in 2001 when Jay-Z bought the “Izzo” beat from Kanye West after hearing him play it for Cam in the studio. By 2010, the beef was still going on, at least on Cam’ron and Jim’s side. But it was clear that Hov was done with the child’s play. Now here we are in 2019 — Jay-Z does his B-sides show in New York City where it all began, and brings out both Cam’ron and Jim Jones to rock the stage with him. I can't believe my eyes, Jay Z brought out @Mr_Camron at the B Sides 2 concert. pic.twitter.com/ewyxuoviAy — Nigel D.

Source: Gary Hershorn / Getty Fox News Employee Chastises Colleagues For “White Supremacist Chat Room” Email We already know what type time Fox News is on, so it comes as no surprise that a great many of their employees are in line with the type of white power mentality that people like Tucker Carlson and Lou Dobbs subscribe to. Today comes further evidence of this fact. According to DailyBeast , internal Fox News emails have been leaked to the public where one of the news corps decent employees chided and rebuked his Mein Kampf-y colleagues for sounding like a “white supremacist chat room” on a particularly obsequious email thread in defense of the Fuhrer-In-Chief Donald Trump. As Joe Biden entered the presidential race this week, he did so in direct opposition to Trump. His announcement had a clip of Trump infamous “very fine people on both sides” quote following the race riot in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017. The Fox News douchebags, reporter Doug McKelway and digital senior editor Cody Derespina, tried to argue that Trump never really said those words. McKelway began his email with a Winston Churchill quote: “A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.” He then proceeded to echo the pro-Trump claim that the president never said what he said about the neo-Nazis who marched at the deadly event. McKelway contrasted portions of Biden’s script against the same quotes that pro-Trump outlets have used to claim the president never defended white nationalists. And then the reporter highlighted a quote from his own interview with Brian Lambert, an armed Unite the Right attendee, who portrayed the neo-Nazi rallygoers as victims: “They’re denying people their right to assemble. They’re denying their right to speak freely, however hateful their views may be,” he bemoaned. Cody replied all agreeing with McKelway and providing a link to his interview with marcher Jarrod Kuhn claiming he wasn’t a violent racist, just didn’t want to see the Robert E. Lee statue removed. White House correspondent Jon Decker finally had enough and politely ethered both men on another reply-all email containing dozens of addressees. “I really don’t understand the point you are making,” he wrote. “Jarrod Kuhn was one of those individuals in Charlottesville holding a tiki torch while the mob chanted ‘Jews will not replace us.’” And then: “So much for your Winston Churchill quote,” Decker shot back hours later for all to see. He scolded McKelway for “invoking Churchill to what happened in Charlottesville,” calling it “rather offensive.” In fact, Decker continued, “Based upon the slew of emails that I’ve received today, both of you should send an apology to your Fox News colleagues—many of whom are hurt and infuriated by your respective posts. Your posts read like something you’d read on a White Supremacist chat room.” Sounds like Fox News office politics is just as nasty as their on-air politics. Some real Game of Thrones s#!t. SMH.
Source: John Shearer / Getty Harvard Grads Outrage Unearthed Blac Chyna’s Business School Hoax Earlier this week we reported that Blac Chyna was accepted into Harvard’s online business classes. Soon after , we reported that Chyna’s “acceptance” was a whole a$$ hoax. One which the internet is STILL mocking her for. Today, TMZ reveals WHY Chyna’s house of student ID cards came tumbling down. Apparently, Harvard graduates were NOT pleased with the idea that the “average Joe” could be enrolled in their school and be credited with one of their pretentious lil’ degrees. Harvard’s Board of Alumni says he received numerous calls from fuming alumnus who wanted the school to take action as they had been lobbying against the online business course for some time now. The outrage is said to have caused the school to investigate and ultimately out Chyna as a liar. It is said that a PR firm offered to take the class on Chyna’s behalf for just $1,000. This was a terrible idea on Chyna’s part, but something about angry white people descending upon her when clearly they have obviously taken issue with others in the past feels kinda gross.
Source: theo wargo / Getty Jay-Z Performs ‘B-Sides’ Set At Webster Hall Jay-Z always knows what to do to get people talking all while pushing the culture forward. The Brooklyn legend made New York’s Webster Hall great again for the venue’s reopening by performing one of his “B-sides” set with an intimate show. But it wouldn’t be a Hov show without some special guests in the building. Nas hit the stage with Jay to perform their 2007 track “Success” followed by the classic “Dead Presidents”, then the Queens legend closed out their set with “New York State of Mind”. View this post on Instagram #JAYZ x #BSides2 A post shared by Roc Nation (@rocnation) on Apr 26, 2019 at 11:19pm PDT One of the biggest surprises of the night was Jay brought out former nemesis Cam’ron to perform their 2002 collab “Welcome to New York City.” The audience went wild seeing the semi Roc-A-fella reunion, and ish got crazier once Jim Jones joined them on stage to perform “I Really Mean It.” Camron, Jim Jones & Jay z On The Same Stage. Free Juelz tho #TIDALxJayz pic.twitter.com/OfhLvFeKCQ — 2cooI2Blog (@2Cool2Bl0g) April 27, 2019 A standout moment from the classic performance was Hov’s tribute to the late, great Nipsey Hussle. He freestyled: “Gentrify your own hood before these people do it. Claim eminent domain and have your people move in. That’s a small glimpse into what Nipsey was doing. For anybody still confused as to what he was doing.” Jay’s “B-Sides 2” set is Webster Hall’s first show since it closed down for renovation in August 2017. Shout out to Hov for bringing the culture back to NYC in such a dope way.
