Schoolboy Q Might Blow Off Touring To Watch His Daughter Play Soccer

Schoolboy Q Might Blow Off Touring To Watch His Daughter Play Soccer http://bit.ly/2wqdRWV,

Schoolboy Q just released an album (the fantastic Crash Talk), but if you’re hoping to see him perform live, you might have to keep waiting.

The rapper was taking questions from fans on Twitter on Sunday, and one brave fan asked the question we’ve all been wondering about. Will Schoolboy Q be touring Crash Talk?

Iono I like watcHin my daugHter play soccer.. I normally Have dates out by now. Maybe later tHo https://t.co/XKAvlroSCW

— ScHoolboy Q (@ScHoolboyQ) May 26, 2019

The rapper has been enjoying the quiet life lately, spending downtime with his family. He answered, “Iono I like watcHin my daugHter play soccer.. I normally Have dates out by now. Maybe later tHo.”

Fans are far from furious, though. The rapper has two daughters, born 2009 and 2019, and fans have nothing but respect for Schoolboy Q prioritizing time with them. “That’s a great reason not to tour right now,” one fan said. “Priorities in check. I respect it,” another added.

The rapper does have a few shows coming up, though. He’ll play Summerfest in Milwaukee in July, Osheaga Music & Arts Festival in Montreal in August, and he’s got some Australian dates in the fall. The relaxed tour schedule is a nice break from the busy couple of years Schoolboy Q has had, and leaves plenty of time to spend with his daughters. Priorities in check. I respect it.

Lil Uzi Vert Canceled His Performance At Soundset Festival For A Second Time

Lil Uzi Vert Canceled His Performance At Soundset Festival For A Second Time http://bit.ly/2I0GZth,

On Sunday, Lil Uzi Vert canceled his set at St. Paul, MN’s Soundset Festival with no warning.

If this story sounds familiar, it’s because Lil Uzi Vert has pulled out of this exact music festival before, back in 2017. The Philadelphia rapper has kept mum about the reason for his last-minute cancelation, but Soundset shared a post to their Instagram expressing their disappointment and sharing news of the performers who would be replacing Lil Uzi Vert.

instagram

“Back in 2017, Lil Uzi Vert canceled his appearance at Soundset without providing any official statements,” Soundset wrote on Instagram. “This year, we chose to give him the chance to make it up to fans, but unfortunately, he’s just canceled again without explanation. We immediately began scrambling to fill the empty slot and guarantee an exciting lineup for all in attendance, and we believe we’ve accomplished that by adding not one, but two additional performers to the bill – one will have us all ‘Goin’ Baby’ and the other will take us on a trip to ‘Old Town Road.’”

DaBaby and Lil Nas X are fine replacements, though. Lil Nas X made a surprise appearance at Boston Calling earlier this weekend, and DaBaby’s “Suge” is one of the breakout hits of the year. Fool Soundset once, they might give you a second chance. Fool them twice, and they probably won’t be looking to book you again.

Meek Mill’s Lawyer Said Reports Of The Rapper Getting Into A Fight With Security Guards Are Not True

Meek Mill’s Lawyer Said Reports Of The Rapper Getting Into A Fight With Security Guards Are Not True http://bit.ly/2M9tHjz,

The battle between Meek Mill and the Cosmopolitan Hotel is heating up. Earlier this weekend, the rapper attempted to enter the Las Vegas hotel and was denied entry at the door. Meek called out the hotel for being “racist as hell” for turning him away, and called on fans and allies to boycott the Cosmopolitan.

The Cosmopolitan is telling a different version of the story. TMZ reports that the reason for Meek’s ban is a prior incident involving hotel security. Per a source at the Cosmopolitan hotel, the fight with hotel guards is the reason he was denied entry.

But Meek’s lawyer, Joe Tacopina, told TMZ that the source’s claims are untrue. “The racist hole that they [Cosmopolitan] have dug for themselves has just gotten deeper,” Tacopina said. “Yesterday, when this incident unfolded, the chief security guard could not articulate a reason why Meek was denied entry and threatened with arrest. They’ve now come up with some fabricated claim through an anonymous source that Meek was involved in a fight on their property.”

“Meek Mill was never involved in a fight on their property, ever,” Tacopina went on. “I challenge the Cosmopolitan to produce a video of such altercation or a contemporaneous incident report. The legal case against the Cosmopolitan just got stronger.”

All The Best New Music From This Week That You Need To Hear

All The Best New Music From This Week That You Need To Hear http://bit.ly/30LbNqx,

Getty Image

Keeping up with new music can be exhausting, even impossible. From the weekly album releases to standalone singles dropping on a daily basis, the amount of music is so vast it’s easy for something to slip through the cracks. Even following along with the Uproxx recommendations on a daily basis can be a lot to ask, so every Monday we’re offering up this rundown of the best music released in the last week.

This week saw Ed Sheeran continue his series of high-profile collaborations and an also-feature-packed new album from Flying Lotus. Yeah, it was a great week for new music. Check out the highlights below.

Ed Sheeran — “Cross Me” Feat. Chance The Rapper and PnB Rock

youtube

Ed Sheeran made waves not long ago with his Justin Bieber collab “I Don’t Care,” but he didn’t waste any time getting his next new song out. He returned quickly with Chance The Rapper and PnB Rock in tow, and the punchy “Cross Me” is one of Sheeran’s most hip-hop-oriented (and delightful) singles yet.

Flying Lotus — Flamagra

Nobody has ever credibly accused Flying Lotus of being boring, and he continues his ongoing trend of making some of the most fascinating electronic music out there on his new album. He works hand-in-hand with a smattering of guests to bring kaleidoscopic visions to life, like on his unsettling spoken word David Lynch joint effort “Fire Is Coming,” and he makes effective use of Anderson .Paak’s upbeat energy on “More.”

Ty Dolla Sign — “Purple Emoji” Feat. J. Cole

youtube

J. Cole isn’t one to do a ton of collaborations (famously so, in fact), but this team-up with Ty Dolla Sign panned out well. Dolla Sign delivers a catchy and soulful hook, which sets the stage for Cole to come in and deliver a rhythmic, rapid-fire verse. It’s cool that Cole wants to do his own thing most of the time, but this joint effort just works.

The Lonely Island — “Oakland Nights” Feat. Sia

youtube

Out of nowhere, The Lonely Island dropped The Unauthorized Bash Brothers Experience, a Netflix “visual poem” about Jose Canseco and Mark McGwire. There’s a ton of music in the special, and they got Sia to sing on one of the finest ones. Don’t expect to see her in the special, though, as she is instead portrayed by Sterling K. Brown.

YG — 4REAL 4REAL

This album was meant to come out sooner, but YG delayed it out of respect for Nipsey Hussle’s death. Now that the album is here, though, YG shows off a mature side on his final Def Jam album on songs like “Heart 2 Heart,” on which he and Meek Mill talk about friends of theirs who have found themselves on the wrong side of some serious life-altering trouble.

Kim Petras — “All I Do Is Cry”

youtube

Petras has released a ton of singles over the past few weeks, and her newest track sees her embracing the hip-hop/trap influence that permeates modern pop, all while lamenting a relationship that didn’t go how she had hoped. If Petras is trying to become a household name, it’s songs like these that will help her get there.

Beast Coast — Escape From New York

The Brooklyn-based rap group features members Joey Badass, CJ Fly, Kirk Knight, and Flatbush Zombies, and with all that talent in the studio, of course this came out great. Their debut album together is an often-punishing effort, and yet, the album’s standout track, “Snow In The Stadium,” goes in a smoother direction that’s a welcomed departure.

Steve Lacy — Apollo XXI

The Internet member Steve Lacy is all over Vampire Weekend’s new album, and now he’s arrived with his debut solo effort. It’s a diverse record, too: It opens with the psychedelic soul of “Only If,” and from there, gets into lanes like the R&B-indebted “Lay Me Down” and the more hip-hop-oriented “Basement Jack.”

Denzel Curry — “Speedboat”

youtube

The Florida rapper is one of the most diverse hip-hop rising stars in the genre today, and he recently previewed his upcoming album with the upbeat “Speedboat.” Curry is a ball of boundless energy live, so it’ll be fascinating to see him apply that to this one while touring with Billie Eilish this summer.

Rocketman (Music From The Motion Picture)

Elton John has been very involved in the Rocketman biopic, and that even extends to the soundtrack. Although it mostly features classic John songs performed by the film’s cast, he does make an appearance in a new original track, a duet with Taron Egerton called “(I’m Gonna) Love Me Again.”

Some artists covered here are Warner Music artists. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.
