Famous Hip Hop Artists And Popular Rap Artists At HipHopDX

Nobody is saying anything in hip hop journalism these days, everyone just reports the latest on (insert popular rap artists name here), there is no perspective, no insight and no food for thought. Some haters just bash hip hop artists, just mean-spirited shit-talking that any 10 year old can do. HipHopDX is only spot that tells it how it is and how it should be.

Well, well, well...it's the bad guys of HipHopDX again. Hide your girlfriends, money, food, gadgets, sneakers, bottle caps, dice, lampshades, fish, ice cube trays and anything else because we are up in this bitch! Before we steal everything you love, we must leave you with another edition of "What The Fuck!?!?" Why? Because we like you just enough to do a bunch of crummy shit to you but leave you with a good laugh. So sit back, buckle up and enjoy or hate (whichever comes first). 1) WTF is the deal with Lil Wayne’s album cover that looks like a retarded Ready to Die fucked Illmatic on sizzurp? At least...
