Dead End Hip Hop

We are going live to cover the leaked jail phone calls from Young Thug that have sent shockwaves through the hip hop community. These recordings reveal conversations where names like Lil Durk, Kendrick Lamar, and Gunna come up, adding fuel to the already heated discussions around Thug, YSL, and the wider rap game. With Thug now on probation, the timing and content of these calls raise questions about what this means for his image, relationships in the industry, and the narrative surrounding him moving forward. During this livestream, we will break down what was said, explore how these revelations connect to larger conversations in hip hop, and give our unfiltered thoughts on the impact this might have. Whether it’s about loyalty, respect, or how the culture processes leaked information, we are diving deep into it all. Join us in the live chat to share your reactions and perspectives — this one is bound to spark debate across the board. #YoungThug #YSL #LilDurk #KendrickLamar #Gunna #HipHop #Livestream Learn more about your ad choices.

Ghostface Killah has returned with Supreme Clientele 2, a project fans have been anticipating for years. As the follow up to his 2000 classic Supreme Clientele, expectations could not be higher. The original solidified Ghost as one of the most inventive storytellers and stylists in hip hop and it remains a staple not just in his discography but in the Wu Tang legacy as a whole. In this review we break down whether Ghost was able to live up to the pressure of revisiting such a monumental title. We dive into the production across the album, the features that show up, and the moments where Ghost’s sharp lyricism and colorful imagery shine the brightest. We also take a critical look at how the album balances nostalgia with progression, asking if it feels like a natural continuation of Supreme Clientele or more of a tribute to what made that album special in the first place. This is a conversation hip hop heads will not want to miss, especially those who remember the impact of the original. Did Ghostface Killah deliver a worthy sequel or is Supreme Clientele 2 destined to spark debate among fans and critics alike #GhostfaceKillah #SupremeClientele2 #WuTang #HipHop #AlbumReview Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwNzLpk33dblyY2Gg-SyPxw/join Dead End Hip Hop Merch Shop: https://deadendmedia.myspreadshop.com Find all things Dead End Hip Hop here: https://linktr.ee/deadendhiphop SUBSCRIBE to our second channel, Is The Mic Still On: https://www.youtube.com/isthemicstillon IS THE MIC STILL ON PODCAST: SUBSCRIBE on iTunes: http://apple.co/2oJIzZb Follow The Crew: Follow Modest Media: @IamModestMedia Follow Beezy: @Beezy430 Follow Ken: @KennithBInge Follow Feefo: @Feefo247 Follow Myke C-Town: @MykeCTown Follow Sophie: @SayItAintSoph About Dead End Hip Hop: No scripts.

In this superchat conversation we tackle a question that cuts right to the heart of hip hop culture. One of our viewers asked if any albums from the 2020s so far truly deserve the legendary 5 Mics stamp that The Source Magazine used to hand out. For those who remember, 5 Mics wasn’t just a rating, it was a badge of honor that represented the highest level of artistry, cultural impact, and replay value an album could have. Only a handful of projects in hip hop history ever earned that status and they are still debated to this day. So what about the 2020s. With so much music dropping every week and the way hip hop has shifted in sound, style, and accessibility, does the 5 Mics standard still even apply. We go back and forth on the albums that stood out to us in this new decade, the projects that felt like instant classics, and what it actually takes for an album today to live up to that historical benchmark. From mainstream releases to underground gems, we break down which records have the potential to be remembered as elite contributions to the culture. Join the discussion and drop your thoughts in the comments. Which hip hop albums from the 2020s would you put in that 5 Mic category. Which ones feel like they’ll stand the test of time. We want to know what you consider classic level material in this era. #HipHop #DeadEndHipHop #AlbumReview #Superchat #5Mics Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwNzLpk33dblyY2Gg-SyPxw/join Dead End Hip Hop Merch Shop: https://deadendmedia.myspreadshop.com Find all things Dead End Hip Hop here: https://linktr.ee/deadendhiphop SUBSCRIBE to our second channel, Is The Mic Still On: https://www.youtube.com/isthemicstillon IS THE MIC STILL ON PODCAST: SUBSCRIBE on iTunes: http://apple.co/2oJIzZb Follow The Crew: Follow Modest Media: @IamModestMedia Follow Beezy: @Beezy430 Follow Ken: @KennithBInge Follow Feefo: @Feefo247 Follow Myke C-Town: @MykeCTown Follow Sophie: @SayItAintSoph About Dead End Hip Hop: No scripts.

We are back with another Chance the Rapper review, this time diving into his new album STAR LINE. It has been five years since The Big Day dropped in 2019 which we also reviewed at the time (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vW346QizEbs). Like many listeners we were not feeling that project and it left a lot of people wondering what direction Chance would take next. With all that time passing there has been plenty of anticipation to see if Chance could bounce back with something stronger. On STAR LINE he brings a new set of sounds and themes that show where he is at musically right now. The big question is whether this album is the comeback people have been waiting on or if he is still chasing the spark that made him stand out early in his career. Let’s get into it. #ChanceTheRapper #StarLine #HipHop #AlbumReview #DEHH Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwNzLpk33dblyY2Gg-SyPxw/join Dead End Hip Hop Merch Shop: https://deadendmedia.myspreadshop.com Find all things Dead End Hip Hop here: https://linktr.ee/deadendhiphop SUBSCRIBE to our second channel, Is The Mic Still On: https://www.youtube.com/isthemicstillon IS THE MIC STILL ON PODCAST: SUBSCRIBE on iTunes: http://apple.co/2oJIzZb Follow The Crew: Follow Modest Media: @IamModestMedia Follow Beezy: @Beezy430 Follow Ken: @KennithBInge Follow Feefo: @Feefo247 Follow Myke C-Town: @MykeCTown Follow Sophie: @SayItAintSoph About Dead End Hip Hop: No scripts.

We discuss the latest twist in Drake’s ongoing lawsuit against UMG, where he’s seeking documents about alleged domestic violence claims against Kendrick Lamar and private communications between Lamar and TDE’s Dave Free about Lamar’s children—moves seemingly aimed at reinforcing the accusations Drake made in his 2024 track Family Matters.

In this Superchat conversation we took on the ultimate challenge of putting four classic Outkast albums up against all four Run The Jewels albums and ranking them together in one combined matchup. Each member came in with their own personal ranking list, so you’ll see where our opinions line up and where they clash. From timeless Southern hip hop landmarks to the hard-hitting RTJ catalog, we broke down what makes each project stand out and where they stack up against each other. There were plenty of surprises, disagreements, and moments that might have you yelling at your screen. If you ever send in a Superchat during a live stream and we don’t get to your question or topic on the spot, it can still turn into a full conversation like the one you are watching right now. So keep those questions coming and you might just see your idea become its own video. #Outkast #RunTheJewels #HipHop #AlbumRanking Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwNzLpk33dblyY2Gg-SyPxw/join Dead End Hip Hop Merch Shop: https://deadendmedia.myspreadshop.com Find all things Dead End Hip Hop here: https://linktr.ee/deadendhiphop SUBSCRIBE to our second channel, Is The Mic Still On: https://www.youtube.com/isthemicstillon IS THE MIC STILL ON PODCAST: SUBSCRIBE on iTunes: http://apple.co/2oJIzZb Follow The Crew: Follow Modest Media: @IamModestMedia Follow Beezy: @Beezy430 Follow Ken: @KennithBInge Follow Feefo: @Feefo247 Follow Myke C-Town: @MykeCTown Follow Sophie: @SayItAintSoph About Dead End Hip Hop: No scripts.
