So far, there have been rave reviews for Kendrick Lamar's studio debut good kid, m.A.A.d city, but leave it to Shyne to be the naysayer.

"Yoooo! Kendrick Lamar is talented with a lot of potential but his album is traaaaash," Shyne tweeted of the Dr. Dre-helmed album before comparing it to Game and 50 Cent's debut projects. "The game Documentary even 50 get rich or die trying lived up to the hype and were classics. Good kid is trash!"

Po's comments didn't seem to rattle Kendrick in the least bit, but his Top Dawg Entertainment labelmate and Black Hippy rhyme partner Schoolboy Q quickly came to K-Dot's defense. Q wrote: "We all know @OriginalSHyne AIN'T EATIN!!!!! N*gga ain't had a hot verse since '01." Shyne fired back with a tweet that included a homophobic slur (since deleted apparently but still visible in a screen grab captured by MTV News) and told Q, "When mobsters talking rappers be quiet!"

Houston MC Slim Thug, who seems to be impartial with no direct ties to Kendrick or TDE weighed in as well by retweeting one of Shyne's messages preceded by two emojis: a surprised face and a pistol pointed to the head.

The "Bad Boyz" rapper, who recently tore into Rick Ross, Drake and President Barack Obama, responded to Slim Thug to plead his case. "@slimthugga I'm saying tho, all the hype I wanted to hear the champion! I heard a kid with potential. The beats was trash!"

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. 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...
