HIPHOP is Such a competitive sport. But, why? no other genre of music creates a seperation from its younger artist to the older artist. so, why HIPHOP? Im nobody to have a universal answer, all i can do is speak my opinion. with that said, my opinion is; its a matter of where it came from. HIPHOP came from hunger and opportunity. You take that, and the chance to get out of the current situation, not many humans will sit back and watch the world around them create opportunity…nope, gonna stick their hand in the grease as well. Who can blame em…unfortunately, EVERYBODY cant chase and share the same dream. In most urban neighborhoods, the youth dont see real life examples of scholars. And the few that do become scholars, normally be on the first thing smokin away from the hell they once knew. Battle Rap…that comes from hunger…and tapping in to that dark place. Those who cant, normally arent good…js. A young Kobe Bryant wanted every veterans shine…if u were in his path, u were at his mercy. Same mentality to a young rapper. BUT, since HIPHOP is getting older, we are in good hands with Older artist swords still being sharp and delivering great material today. With Hov, Diddy, 2Chains getting up there in age, I cant see them slowing down or stepping away from the culture EVER..let alone soon. Stay tuned, A NEW STANDARD IN HIPHOP IS SOON TO COME.

ROSES represents Timeless Talent. You are NEVER TOO OLD TO BE GREAT AT ANYTHING. Normally, the older the better…why not HIPHOP?…o, it is..”.YA JUST NOT RECOGNIZIN” (Madd Rapper voice) This tape shines light on our Legends who are still very much relevant and making good material. LETS GIVE EM ROSES BEFORE ITS TOO LATE.

RIP NYPSEY, MAC MILLER, PRODIGY, BIG, PAC, PUN, SEAN PRICE, just to name a few…REST UP!!

THE TIMELESS TAPE

50 things to be thankful for in 2018

There's no denying 2018 has absolutely tested our patience, but it turns out the year hasn't been complete trash.

Beyond some of the most important aspects of life like your loved ones and your health, 2018 has truly given us a lot of good. From social justice initiatives like Time's Up and March for Our Lives, to pop culture masterpieces like Queer Eye, Mamma Mia 2: Here We Go Again, and "thank u, next," the year had its share of hopeful, joyous, entertaining, and positive moments.

So when times get tough and it feels like there's not much to be happy about in the world, here are 50 things to be thankful for.

SEE ALSO: The internet's best tips for how to be kind on World Kindness Day

1. Time's Up launched. 2018 started off strong with a group of more than 300 women in the entertainment industry coming together to form Time's Up — an initiative dedicated to standing up against sexual harassment.

I stand with women across every industry to say #TIMESUP on abuse, harassment, marginalization and underrepresentation. ⁰@TIMESUPNOW https://t.co/4zd5g2ByU0 pic.twitter.com/0h8ojLOq9U

2. Laverne Cox made history on the cover of Cosmo. In January, actress and producer Laverne Cox also made history as the first ever trans covergirl for Cosmopolitan Magazine. Cox graced the cover of Cosmo South Africa's February issue.

3. The Fab Five came into our lives. It may feel like Jonathan Van Ness, Tan France, Karamo Brown, Bobby Berk, and Antoni Porowski have been inspiring us all to eat, dress, groom, self-love, and decorate to the best of our abilities for a lifetime, but Netflix's Queer Eye reboot only premiered in Feb. 2018.

4. Drake's "God's Plan" music video. Remember pre-Meek Mill beef when Drake gave away nearly one million dollars and filmed himself doing all those good deeds like paying for people's groceries? That was nice!

5. The Parkland teens. Though 2018 was full of an unfathomable amount of tragedy and gun violence, the year also inspired a heartwarming amount of youth activism in America. After the deadly Parkland shooting in February, a group of teen survivors from the Florida high school shooting has consistently stood up to government officials and publicly advocated for gun control.

Parkland teens at March For Our lives rally.

This year alone they've formed March for Our Lives, led school walkouts, inspired others (both young and old) to register to vote and protest gun violence, and even inspired the Obama's to write a heartfelt entry in the Time 100 issue.

6. Mirai Nagasu landed a triple axel. The Winter Olympics also took place this year! There were many standout moments but Mirai Nagasu absolutely slayed, making history by becoming the first U.S. woman to land a triple axel in the Winter Olympics. Thankful we got to witness this moment.

7. Black Panther came out. We were truly blessed this year by the arrival of the record-breaking Marvel's cinematic masterpiece, Black Panther, and the talented actors, fierce as hell soundtrack, and on-screen representation it brought to our world.

8. Jordan Peele's Oscar win. Speaking of movies, Peele's film Get Out won "Best Original Screenplay" this year, making him the first black screenwriter to receive the award.

9. The Super Smash Bros. Ultimate wait is almost over. The highly anticipated video game is set to come out for Nintendo Switch on Dec. 7.

10. Beto O'Rourke. 2018 was the year of Beto, burgers, and a Beyoncé midterms endorsement.

We just want to say thank you to everyone who made this possible. Everyone who made us feel hopeful, everyone who inspired us. Everyone who became the most amazing campaign we could have ever hoped to belong to. Grateful that we got to do this with you. We love you. Goodnight! pic.twitter.com/1j6JnhtP0f

— Beto O'Rourke (@BetoORourke) November 7, 2018

11. A Quiet Place. John Krasinski directed and starred in a horror film alongside his IRL wife that was so quiet and terrifying people were too nervous to eat snacks in theaters. What a time to be alive.

12. Kendrick Lamar won a Pulitzer. Remember when the rapper was awarded the 2018 Pulitzer Prize in Music for his fourth studio album, DAMN? Hell yeah!

13. Beyoncé at Coachella. Beychella was THIS YEAR. We knew she would slay but nothing prepared us for the sheer magnitude of her powerhouse performance, or Destiny's Child, or the movement she inspired.

14. The Royal Wedding. When the world needed a distraction from the bad and an escape from reality, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were there for us. And for that we thank them.

15. Brooklyn Nine-Nine was saved. For several terrible, horrible, no good, very bad hours Brooklyn Nine-Nine was cancelled. But thankfully, after a whole lot of love from fans, NBC picked it up for a sixth season.

16. Won't You Be My Neighbor reminded us of Mr. Rogers' magic. We needed a heavy dose of Fred Rogers' pure and wholesome goodness to get us through the year and this film did just the trick.

17. Ava DuVernay made history. DuVernay's adaptation of A Wrinkle In Time led her to become the first black woman to direct a film that grossed more than $100 million at the box office.

18. The world is finally taking action against plastic pollution. Plastic straw bans are spreading across the U.S., Canada, and Europe. Businesses like McDonald's and Starbucks are even getting on board the movement.

19. We still have dogs. No matter how bad things get we still have furry companions to turn to, and play with, and occasionally throw cheese on.

20. Eighth Grade filled us with middle school anxiety. Bo Burnham's Eighth Grade reminded adults how stressful growing up can be and gave teens an emotional look at middle school through a more relatable lens.

Image: a24

21. Crazy Rich Asians was a smashing success. The film dominated box office sales and served as an important milestone for Asian representation in American pop culture. And guess what? It's getting a sequel.

22. Mamma Mia 2: Here We Go Again! Love. Pregnancy. Death. Flashbacks. Dancing. Singing. Abba. Meryl. Cher. Andy García. Help!

23. Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra. 2018 has seen the rise (Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin) and fall (Ariana and Pete) of celebrity relationships. But through the ups and downs of the year Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra's love never seemed to waiver. We're thankful this nice, soon-to-be-wed couple is here to restore our faith in love.

24. LeBron James opened up a school. The NBA star opened his "I Promise" school in Akron, Ohio, to give 240 third and fourth grade students a life-changing educational opportunity.

25. To All The Boys I've Loved Before captured our hearts. Netflix introduced the world to the film adaptation of Jenny Han's young adult book and after Peter Kavinsky's "woah woah woah," our hearts will never be the same. Not to mention it inspired dozens of Lara Jean Halloween costumes.

26. That quirky, super high-maintenance cat was adopted. Remember Bruno, the thicc, polydactyl cat that Wright Way Rescue Animal Shelter in Morton Grove, Illinois, was trying to find a home? He found one :').

27. A sixgill shark was discovered. This is cool because most sharks have five gills. It's also a reminder that we should be thankful for oceanographers, researchers, and all those who explore the our vast and mysterious oceans.

28. India strikes down gay sex ban. On Sept. 6, members of India's Supreme Court unanimously voted to make the landmark ruling that eliminates the ban on consensual gay sex.

29. Moth memes lit up our lives. The year was filled with good memes but those moth/lamp memes? Pure joy.

30. Amy Sherman-Palladino and all those Emmys. Amy Sherman-Palladino has always been genius. Gilmore Girls? Bun Heads? Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life? It's about time she's properly celebrated, so we're thankful The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel won four Emmys. We are also thankful for her husband, Dan Palladino.

31. Twitter did one good thing. We have no edit button and there's still bots and harassment a-plenty, but at the very least, Twitter brought back the chronological timeline.

32. Gritty came into our lives. Can anyone even remember a world without the Philadelphia Flyers' new hairy orange mascot?

33. The Office is back ... sort of. While fans of the NBC comedy are still holding out hope for a revival, 2018 treated those nostalgic for the days of Dunder Mifflin to a charming off-broadway musical.

34. Speaking of The Office — be thankful for Steve Carell. He stars with Timothée Chalamet and Amy Ryan (Holly Flax) in Beautiful Boy. He's got Welcome to Marwen coming out, which looks, uh interesting. He's on SNL. And he's making his triumphant return to television!

35. Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper gave us life. A Star Is Born came out this year, along with a kickass soundtrack and some perfect memes. We will never be the same.

youtube

36. Fat Bear Week ran our lives for 7 days. Much love to all the fat bears out there who distracted us for an entire week just by living their lives.

37. This throwback baked potato costume. Halloween costumes are great but this throwback baked potato get-up really made us smile.

38. Thankful for the hot duck in Central Park. We thought we lost him, but he's back again. <3

39. We have a new anthem: "Party For One." How did Carly Rae Jepsen know we were in desperate need of a song to dance in our underwear and eat a large pizza alone to? And the music video! UGH!

40. And there's no musical praise without discussing Ariana Grande. The warrior of 2018, Ariana Grande, has given fans so much love, inspiration, and hope throughout the year. Not to mention, the ultimate independent BOP: "thank u, next."

i’m so ..... fuckin ..... grateful

— Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) November 11, 2018

41. BDE came to be. Speaking adjacently of Pete Davidson, for better or worse 2018 also gave us Big Dick Energy and that's something we'll never forget.

42. Netflix still delivers. Netflix has an entertaining social media presence and continues to create quality original shows and movies.

43. There was an increase in voter turnout. 2018 proved Americans are standing up for what they believe in and exercising their right to vote. Voter turnout for midterm elections reached a 50-year high, and young people voted at historic rates.

44. Midterm results showed a refreshing amount of diversity. It was a night of historic firsts — from over 100 women elected to Congress (the highest number ever) to wins for the LGBTQ community and more.

45. The Detective Pikachu trailer looks delightful. Another cute as hell movie to look forward to? Yes please.

youtube

46. Cher's Twitter is hilarious. Twitter is sometime awful but not Cher's account. That's always good.

47. All of the books. The world has so many books just waiting to be read — books for when you're mad at the patriarchy, books for hikers, books all about pride. And some great books written this year.

48. All of the great TV shows. Streaming aside, there are dozens of phenomenal shows airing on television this year, like Superstore, The Good Place, This Is Us, Killing Eve, and more.

49. Sports are still a thing! We've got football, we've got soccer, we've got basketball, baseball, hockey, and so many more. Sports bring people together!

50. All the people working to keep others safe, informed, and up-to-date with the news. It's been a tough year for news, mass shootings, and natural disasters, which is why we're thankful for all the hard working journalists, reporters, news anchors, first responders, weather forecasters, and hurricane scientists.

So remember: No matter how bad things may seem there are always some bright spots in the world.

Your Friday Morning Roundup

Put aside the protests and the Zeke Elliott situation, actual NFL football returned last night. And it was fun to watch if you hate the Patriots.

The Andy Reid-led Chiefs took care of the defending Super Bowl champs, 42-27. That’s the most amount of points the Pats have given up under Bill Belichick. And Reid did a really good with time management? Weird world.

Anyway, Alex Smith, who could be entering his last year as the team’s starter with Patrick Mahomes behind him, went 28-for-35 with 368 yards passing and four touchdowns. Rookie running back Kareem Hunt had himself a night after fumbling his first carry in the NFL. He ran for 148 yards on 17 carries with a touchdown, and also caught five passes for 98 yards and two scores. He set an NFL record for yards from scrimmage in the first game of his career with 239. The Eagles play the Chiefs in KC next Sunday.

Tyreek Hill made seven catches for 133 yards and a touchdown, but left the game in the fourth quarter with cramps.

Star safety Eric Berry was carted off the field after suffering an Achilles injury. Looks like it could be a tear.

#Chiefs coach Andy Reid said star S Eric Berry has a potential Achilles tear. They'll know more tomorrow… but horrible news after a big W.

— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) September 8, 2017

Tom Brady went 16-for-36 with 267 yards passing, and Mike Gillislee scored all three of New England’s touchdowns on 45 yards rushing.

Andy Reid put up 42 points and 536 yards on the Super Bowl champion Patriots. My god. Next week should be fun.

The Roundup:

Eagles’ owner Jeffrey Lurie held an impromptu press conference where he discussed clickbait, Kelly Green jerseys (better happen), and having dinner with Andy Reid.

The Eagles also unveiled their new hype video for the season. Thumbtack. Thumbtack. Thumbtack. Kyle ranked all the yearly hype videos. If you give a crap, here’s mine:

5. 2016 (solely because it included St. Joe’s Prep, my high school’s (La Salle) archrival

4. 2014

3. 2015

2. 2017

1. 2013

Tim McManus went on a car ride with Carson Wentz and asked him a few questions.

Zach Ertz is going to break out this year, finally, and more valuable fantasy advice from fantasy guru Jim.

Alshon Jeffery’s cleats are fire.

These are the personalized "AJ XIII Cleats" Alshon Jeffery will be wearing this weekend #Eagles http://pic.twitter.com/mkqweL0uWy

He also won’t chirp at Josh Norman on Sunday.

Some not-so-good news regarding Joel Embiid from Howard Eskin on 94 WIP yesterday:

“He’s not ready for five-on-five play, according to the Sixers. But what I understand is, his agent wants a new contract before he — remember he’s eligible to get a new deal. Now, if you’re the Sixers you can’t give him a max deal until you see that he can play, how many games he can play during the season.

“But my understanding, part of the reason that they’re saying — whoever it is that is saying that he’s not ready for five-on-five play, is because — and Joel Embiid, I don’t think worries about the money, but they listen to their agents. And the agent wants a new contract.”

Brett Brown on WIP – article from Liberty Ballers – said Eskin’s report is BS.

Training Camp will take place from September 26 until September 29 in Camden. One practice per day.

Amir Johnson said some more promising things about Ben Simmons after a community event at the Strawberry Mansion PAL Center:

Was going back over Amir's comments from today.

There was also this: "I truly believe that Ben is going to be the future of this league."

Did we see a glimpse of a new red jersey yesterday? Our good friend Conrad Burry made some predictions:

Took a stab at some predictions…I actually don't mind the wacky art deco font. Maybe it'd be alright if they re-drew it cleaner. http://pic.twitter.com/KASlHlRLMS

— Conrad Burry (@conradburry) September 7, 2017

To add to the intrigue, CEO Scott O’Neil gave some input about the funky 70s wordmark in a Tweet two years ago:

I actually like those u? https://t.co/S9Nh0UY6TR

The Phillies played a game last night as well. They lost to the Nationals 4-3.

Odubel Herrera extended his hit-streak to 20 games, and Jorge Alfaro hit his second big league homer. Aaron Nola gave up three runs on seven hits in 5.1 innings.

Phillies and Nationals do battle again tonight at 7:05. Jake Thompson takes the mound for the Phils against Max Scherzer. God bless.

Scott Kingery and Tom Eshelman were the recipients of this year’s Paul Owens Awards, given to the team’s top minor league player and pitcher.

Meanwhile, former pitcher Brett Myers has a new music video. Not gonna lie, he’s kind of good. Him and Kyle had a weird Twitter exchange:

Thanks… wasn’t bashing you (really). Just not my scene. The song itself isn’t bad

— Kyle Scott (@CrossingBroad) September 7, 2017

Maybe u should come down and hang and see how we have a good time then u might change ur mind

— Brett Myers Music (@BackWoodRebel39) September 7, 2017

Can we talk about the girl in the Yankees shirt though?

— Kyle Scott (@CrossingBroad) September 7, 2017

I didn't like that either but I don't tell them what to wear…she was actually there to keep an eye on my youngins while we shot the video

— Brett Myers Music (@BackWoodRebel39) September 7, 2017

In other sports news, the Cleveland Cavaliers officially introduced Isaiah Thomas, Jae Crowder, and Ante Zizic after acquiring them from Boston. Sam Hinkie also broke his short Twitter silence, retweeting “Isaiah’s” Players Tribune piece:

Roger Goodell says he’s not a “football expert” on a show nobody watches. I’m not kidding on that second part either:

Free agent kicker Josh Brown has been suspended six more games for domestic violence. He was suspended for one game last year.

Lenny Dykstra is trying to get with Lena Dunham, apparently.

Ohio State will wear LeBron Soldier cleats for their game against Oklahoma Saturday night.

In the news, the lawsuit that wanted parking on the Broad Street median has been thrown out and can’t be refiled. Great move by the judge.

Meek Mill explains how much Allen Iverson meant to the city of Philadelphia.

Equifax says about 143 million customers may have been affected by a cyberattack.

Kyle: FUCK EQUIFAX. Seriously. Fuck them. You lose the social security information for HALF of America? Worse, three of their executives sold their stock the days before this came out. How is that legal? The whole credit industry is such a farce. I spent a full year before we bought our new house playing their game, trying to get my credit one level up to save on my mortgage. Opening new lines of credit – I didn’t need – and strategically making purchases and paying them right away all because an algorithm liked it. Worse, there are multiple algorithms depending on the type of credit you’re seeking, so the number you get in your report isn’t what most creditors see unless you pay more for the industry-specific scores – which I did – adding to the mysterious nature of it all. Who would’ve thought that a few agencies having the most important data for all functioning adults in the country could be dangerous? Now some hacker has all of my info – and yours, too! – and Equifax just shrugs about it. Meanwhile, God help you if you missed a student loan payment in 2014 and want a good mortgage rate. Seriously, fuck them. Fuck that whole industry.

Amazon is looking for a location for their second North American headquarters. Mayor Jim Kenney, with puns, has one suggestion:

We think Philadelphia would be a PRIME location for Amazon that would make people SMILE! Look forward to submitting a proposal! https://t.co/l60Wn5BVdg
