It's XXL magazine’s 15th year in the industry and who better to grace the cover of their anniversary issue than someone who’s been a dominant figure in the hip-hop world for just as long. Dr. Dre satisfies that role, bringing with him new Aftermath signee Kendrick Lamar for the cover that boldly states “After Snoop, Eminem, & 50 Cent Dr.Dre Brings Us Hip-Hops Next Big Star; Kendrick Lamar.”

The special collectors issue will hit shelves on August 14, and it goes in depth on the Compton golden boy’s upcoming album good kid, m.A.A.d city as well as his family’s violent past, present, and future. On the other end of the article, mogul Dr. Dre continuously boasts about his newest artist’s talents and capabilities, saying, “I don’t have a crystal ball, but I believe that [Kendrick] has the potential to do some really incredible great things–things that are gonna make the veterans raise their eyebrows."

Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
