Wow, Guess Which Former XXL Freshman Says He’s Quitting Rap!
After being named as one of the XXL Freshman in 2012 alongside Danny Brown, Machine Gun Kelly, Macklemore, French Montana, Future, Kid Ink, Don Trip, Iggy Azalea and Roscoe Dash, L.A.-based rapper Hopsin went on to have a moderately successful career. It was much more on an underground level, but he consistently toured and put out solid projects, just not on such a mainstream level like some of his classmates. (Save for Don Trip and kind of Roscoe Dash…this may be the most successful class yet!) Unfortunately, the cutthroat rap game may have proved to be too much for Hopsin, and he took to his Facebook account last night to announce his indefinite retirement.

(Photos) SMH! Nicki Minaj’s Ex SB Is Sooooo Petty For This! BUT – Is Nicki With Meek?!
Nicki Minaj and her ex SB are obviously not on good terms. I mean, is anyone ever on good terms with their ex when they first break up? (Well, some are…but you guys are weird. LOL!) If you didn’t know, Nicki and SB dated for over a decade, having been together way before the fame and the fortune. They’ve had their ups and downs throughout their relationship, but recently, the pair had what seems like may be their final split. As more details came out about the breakup, Nicki apparently busted the windows out of the Benz she bought for SB, and if the lyrics in her new song “Bed Of Lies” have any truth to them, it’s because he was a cheating dirty dog! SB has not been dealing with the breakup well, naturally, and not only deleted his Twitter…but now is pulling some petty moves on Instagram!
