Houston's own Paul Wall is as real as they come, and like most rap artists and fans, he enjoys musicians who can share their lives through their lyrics. With that being said, one artist he doesn't care to listen to is Slim Jesus, the White drill rapper from Hamilton, Ohio who admitted to not living up to the words in his songs on several occasions. "Me personally, I won't listen to something like that," Paul tells DJ Vlad. "I wanna listen to something where they're speaking about something that's authentic."

"We all know every rapper exaggerated a little bit, but to go that far about it you gotta at least come from somewhere - at least for me to listen to you," Paul Wall continues. If Slim Jesus were from his hometown Paul admits he'd "feel differently," but in the end he'd "much rather listen to Chief Keef" or Lil Mouse because they rap about what they know.

Press play to watch him discuss Slim Jesus at length below.

BEAT Magazine tapped the beautiful and equally talented superstar Beyonce for the cover of their latest issue. The America-themed photos were captured by Ryan McGinley.

The issue hits newsstands on October 21st. Guarantee yourself a copy HERE. In the meantime check out an excerpt from the cover story and some photos below.

Here she is talking about success and fear:

What does fear taste like?
Success. I have accomplished nothing without a little taste of fear in my mouth.

Just as importantly, here she is chatting about which Beyoncé era she’d go dressed as for Halloween:

Destiny’s Child Survivor era with the army fatigues. Or maybe Bootylicious with the gold tooth and pink tips in my hair.

This is what she sings in the shower:

Holy Ghost by Kim Burrell

Does she Netflix or does she chill?

Netflix and chill.

What about the last song that got stuck in her head?

Jugg by Fetty Wap

And perhaps vitally, what does she have on her pizza?

Extra tomato sauce and jalapeños.

Hugh Hefner's longtime rival Larry Flynt thinks the Playboy magazine boss is making a terrible decision by taking nudity out of his publication.

"You know Hefner's 90 now. I knew he was getting old, but I didn't know he'd lost his mind," the Hustler magazine founder told CNN on Sunday. "How can you take the most important feature in your magazine and drop it? I think it was a silly move."

Do you think Flynt is right?

Lil Wayne may have to add $80,682.45 to the $2 million he's already been ordered to pay Signature Group.

The $80K is what his legal team Garbett, Allen & Roza is suing him for. The rapper paid the $12K retainer fee to the lawyers who represented him in the case, but hasn't coughed up another penny, according to TMZ.

As we previously reported, Signature accused Weezy of initially compensating them $55,000 a month, per their 3-year agreement, then suddenly stopping the payments. They continued doing business with him until the bill hit $1 million. At which time they decided to take him to court.

After late fees were applied the bill ballooned to $1.8 million. In September a judge ordered him to pay that amount, plus $200K for the company's lawyers fees.

Only God knows what the Indianapolis Colts were trying to do when they lined up for an ill-fated fake punt attempt against the New England Patriots.

Trailing by 6 points in the 3rd quarter, the team shifted all but 2 players to one side of the field. They then inexplicably snapped the ball to a player in the middle of the filed who had no blockers in front of him.

"The whole idea there was on a fourth-and-3 or less, shift an alignment to where you either catch them misaligned, they try to sub some people in and catch them with 12 men on the field, (or) if you get a certain look, you've got 3 yards, 2 yards, you can make a play," Coach Chuck Pagano said after the game. "We shifted over and I didn't do a good enough coaching it during the week. Alignment-wise we weren't aligned correctly, and then communication-wise (we had) a breakdown on the snap. And that's all on me. I didn't do a good enough job coaching that. And it played a huge factor in this loss."

It turned into an easy stop for the Patriots defense. Somebody should be fired for this. Watch the hilarious shenanigans below.
