... run right now for their highly anticipated sophomore album Culture, which is set to arrive on Friday. Having stopped by The Cruz Show earlier this week where they spit a children’s freestyle over their own “Bad & Boujee” beat , the ATL trio were once again asked to spit some bars live on air while visiting Sway In The Morning this week in NYC, which they happily obliged to. Going in over beats from producers off the album, which were actually sent in by the producers themselves, watch as Offset, Takeoff, & Quavo go off the top in this rather lengthy, 9-minute freestyle above.

Rolling Loud Manages To Rid Itself Of Last Year's Hiccups

... a stylist couldn’t find a fly fit for. A week prior, South Florida's own Kodak Black landed himself in jail over drug and firearm charges, but that didn’t stop him from showing love to his home at Rolling Loud. His mouth full of gold shine in the dim lights, he uttered every other word to his single “No Flocking.” It wasn’t the best Kodak experience, but we’ll take it. The crowd grew annoyed while waiting for Future to end Rolling Loud on a high note. Staff stalled with a horrible DJ set, dead silence, and Zoey Dollaz came out for an awkward encore. After over an hour and a half of complaining, Future finally showed up to shut everyone up. The headliner performed an array of songs from his earlier projects — Pluto and Monster — to his most recent projects — What a Time to Be Alive and Evol. Overall, Rolling Loud ran a lot smoother than last year, and the lineup made the long lines and pushing and shoving and the occasional fight in the VIP section worth it. Dope Entertainment plans to ...

Rolling Oaks Mall Shooting Leaves 1 Dead, Several Hospitalized

... license. He shot the suspect who shot the good Samaritan trying to intervene,” Mc Manus said. The robber who was shot was taken to San Antonio Military Medical Center. The other robber fled. “The second suspect, when the shooting started, he ran through the mall in the other direction, shooting as he ran,” Mc Manus said. “There were several shots. I mean, it was pop, pop, like, bang, like, real loud bangs,” said Benjamin Arsate, who was inside the mall during the shooting. “So you can imagine all the people in the mall, all the people sheltering in place,” said San Antonio fire Chief Charles Hood. Among the people hidden was a couple's teenage daughter, an employee at J. C. Penney's, who had been texting her mother from where she and others were hiding. “She did say she's around some 70 ...

Future, 2 Chainz, Young Thug & More Upgrade Miami's Rolling Loud Festival To Platinum Status

... today. Atlanta’s own 2 Chainz blessed the crowd with his classics early followed by Freebandz/Epic signee Zoey Dollaz, newcomer Kap G, and Palm Beach natives Wifisfuneral with tunes from 103.5 The Beat’s DJ Epps and DJ Bulletproof in between each set. Once the sunset behind I-95, the heavy smoke grew more dense and filled the block with the aroma of high quality herb once Indiana’s finest Freddie Gibbs and Jet Life chief Curren$y set foot on stage. READ: Dead Beats: Freddie Gibbs & Zeds Dead Take It “Back Home”. Gibbs’ extensive set was a dope collection of records from his past projects like ESGN and Piñata. Curren$y came out on stage with a joint at hand and made everyone throw the Jet Life hand sign up during his set. Spitta performed hits from as far back as “Smoke Somethin” off Verde Terrace to his most recent work like “Drive By” off Canal Street Confidential. The show was more turnt once Kodak Black hit the stage and busted out his signature hit “Skrt Skrt.”. After Zoey Dollaz and Julz kept the enormous audience hype by firing free t-shirts ...

Rolling Loud Is For The Kids

... in seeing a tiny fraction—but of course you’re paying to see them all. The major festival experience is, broadly speaking, a drug picnic in the grass, with perpetual musical accompaniment you tune into occasionally. My last time at Governors Ball, in New York, involved missing the only act I really wanted to see (Future) while I waited in line for security to check my bag. When I finally got in, I drank for five hours to kill time until Drake arrived. There has to be some kind of a middle ground between seeing a single act at a small venue and seeing every touring act in the music industry. For the Sound Cloud rapper generation, that middle ground is Rolling Loud  in Miami, which just wrapped up its second year this past weekend at Mana Wynwood and hit capacity with 15,000 people in attendance. What’s compelling about Rolling Loud is that the lineup coheres. There were two headliners: Young Thug and Future. Lil B played just before Future on the second night, but on a separate stage, so we’ll ...

Widow Of Rolling Oaks Mall 'good Samaritan

... reason she was able to leave Rolling Oaks Mall Sunday afternoon alive. Jonathan Murphy, known to many as the Good Samaritan in the deadly Rolling Oaks Mall shooting, was shot and killed in a botched robbery inside Kay Jewelers. Sunday was Jonathan Murphy's only day off, so the couple went to Rolling Oaks Mall to get a battery replaced in his watch and get their wedding rings cleaned. Moments later, two armed men walked in and made a beeline toward the diamond rings. "I knew he was a big teddy bear, just a big softy," Aimee said. "He was a larger guy, he always stood [up straight], no expression. He had a good poker face.". Aimee said that her husband Jon was as selfless as they come. "[He] would give you the shirt off his back," she said. "The last dollar in his wallet.". The couple met online in 2008. Aimee wasn't looking at the time. She was still grieving the loss of her previous husband, who died from complications from surgery following a bad car accident. With Jon, something was different. Aimee said that she immediately felt a connection and that Jon loved her four children as if ...

Did Meteor Cause The Boom

... and his wife installed a camera in their newborn's nursery months ago, and put one outside for home security. To think their video captured images of a meteor and answered a questioned posed by many was pretty phenomenal, he said. "It's pretty fascinating," he said. During his decades in the field, Craig says he's seen numerous photos and videos of meteors. He's also seen them first-hand, though the one on Swanson's video is brighter than he's seen with his own eyes. While the meteor can be seen breaking apart in Huntersville, it's quite possible the sound could be heard in Mount Holly. And just because the meteor broke apart, doesn't mean any sizable pieces would hit the ground, Craig said. The action typically happens at least 25 miles or higher above the earth, Craig said. Mount Holly residents have been asking questions about a series of loud booms that began more than a week ago. The local police chief said one loud noise could be attributed to a train rolling through town while another had been ...

New Pat Perez Returns To Torrey

... bumped it within 8 feet and saved par. “That’s one thing I’ve really worked on,” he said. “I still get mad. But I don’t fling clubs. It’s different now. Before when I got mad, I had no idea why I was playing bad. Now I know when I hit a bad shot, I have a much better sense of what I’ve done to make a bad shot. So I can correct it.”. To hear him talk this way might explain a career of 382 starts over 16 years that includes just two victories: the Bob Hope Classic in 2009 and the OHL Classic at Mayakoba in November. But what is really amazing when assessing Perez’s career is that with just those two victories, with his admitted dearth of commitment to and grasp of his game, Perez has retained his playing privileges every year since first qualifying for the Tour in 2001. That’s a remarkable kind of consistency that has him $7,157 from reaching $19 million in career earnings. “Anybody can talk all the (expletive) they want,” Perez said. “The bottom ...

Rolling Loud Festival Promises To Do Better This Year

... in 2016. Inside, performances will run smoother too, they hope. "The stages will have alternating set times so people will have plenty of time to get something to drink, use the bathroom, and meet up with their friends between each set.". But perhaps the most painful issue at the first Rolling Loud was the sound quality. It was sludgy and barely audible. Schoolboy Q even addressed it during his set in a fit of frustration. "I don't know what's going on with production, but they crushing my whole vibe," he told the crowd. Zingler and Cherif agree that the production last year wasn't the best. The two say they have taken steps to ensure that problem doesn't happen again. "The sound will be much better, and the visuals will be better than last year. The production overall will be better quality," Cherif says. We're eager to give Rolling Loud the second chance it ...

Rolling Loud Moves To Bayfront Park, Expands To Three Days

... be able to grow within for years to come. And, no, Zika didn't have anything to do with it.”. Related Stories. Rolling Loud Festival Promises to Do Better This Year. Last year, the festival took place at Mana Wynwood (the home of III Points) with fewer  bumps and bruises than its inaugural year. With Yes Julz as the hostess, hip-hop’s biggest stars flocked to Dade County. A few of the stars in attendance included Future, 2 Chainz, Young Thug (or should we say “Jeffery” ), Curren$y, Zoey Dollaz, and Kodak Black, while hometown heroes in the Miami rap scene like Kent Jones, Pouya, Fat Nick, and Yung Simmie dominated the secondary stage. After the event reached capacity both days, however, Dope Ent. felt it was necessary to find a new home. With the new, bigger space will come an increase in ticket prices, but it’s not just because of the new venue. According to Cherif, the two-day event will now be a three-day affair, much like Ultra Music Festival. Also, Cherif says, Rolling Loud has ...

Rappers Who Paid To Be On Rolling Loud Lineup Say They Didn't Get Their Money's Worth

... local talent with growing fan bases and book — and pay — them to perform. We even ran a contest on the radio where artists could submit to perform and one artist was chosen as the winner by the listeners and awarded a slot on the main stage… It would be impossible for our staff to listen to all of the submissions.” So instead, Dope Entertainment put Citrus Rap in charge of picking worthy acts for the Citrus Stage, and, the artists who weren't chosen then had the opportunity to pay for a time slot to help finance the stage, Cherif says. "Pay-to-play exists nationwide in all levels of the music industry. Major labels across all genres of music pay other labels to get artists on tour with bigger artists.”. Signage at the festival didn't include the Citrus Stage. Photo by Amadeus Mc Caskill. Citrus Rap did not respond to enquiries for comment. Not all performers on the ...
