“I like to drink beer, I like to smoke cigarettes… I like bleeding.“ So says Post Malone in the latest digital documentary from the Mass Appeal Collection. Born in Dallas in 1995, Austin Richard Post has grown up to become one of the most powerful creative forces in pop culture today—as well as the most misunderstood. Is the artist who came in the game as “White Iverson” a rapper? A rock star? A psycho? None of the above? With his ‘Beerbongs and Bentleys’ album dropping this Friday, what better time to dig deep into the artist’s soul? MASS APPEAL pulled up to the fast food restaurant where he used to work, spoke with teachers, classmates, family members, and Dre London, the manager who’s been rocking with him since his first SoundCloud upload. From Post’s friendship with the late Bankroll Fresh to how he deals with haters, this new doc offers a rare glimpse of a Rockstar on the rise.

The letter Tupac Shakur wrote to Madonna ending their relationship has been cleared for auction.
Madonna had attempted to block the sale by suing her former friend, Darlene Lutz, last July to prevent her from profiting from the letter, as well as other personal items, according to the New York Daily News.
However, a judge ruled that the singer had signed a release almost 15 years ago, forfeiting her rights to the belongings.
"(Madonna) knew that throughout her relationship with Lutz, Lutz was in possession of various pieces of (Madonna's) personal property," the judge wrote in his decision. "Yet before this action began, the plaintiff did not make any demand to return her possessions."
"It's a clear cut victory for us," Gotta Have It! auction house co-owner Ed Kosinski said. "She shouldn't have signed a settlement agreement relinquishing the right to all property in Darlene's possession."
The NYPD are looking into a possible connection between a shooting involving Tekashi69 and Casanova.
TMZ reports that Casanova, born Caswell Senior, was filming a music video on Thursday, April 19, in Bedford-Stuyvesant, New York, when someone fired ten shots, injuring two members of his entourage. Both men are expected to make a full recovery.
Police are investigating to find out if someone in 6ix9ine's crew is the culprit. This would be the second alleged shooting in three days involving the rival crews.
As we previously reported, there was a scuffle Saturday night at Barclays Center during the Adrien Broner vs. Jessie Vargas boxing match.
There was some pushing and shoving before someone from 69's crew pulled out a gun and fired a shot. Nobody was hit, but police did recover a .32 caliber shell casing at the scene.
The beef between Casanova and Tekashi, real name Daniel Hernandez, has been brewing for months. Both rappers are from Brooklyn and reported members of two separate Bloods gang sets.
What age was you when you got bit by the bug the music bug that is?
I have been surrounded by music since I was born… it runs on both sides from singers to musicians it hit me very early
Who was some of your role models while coming up in the music industry?
Coming up I was exposed to a guy that I will never forget, he was one of the Head Choir Directors at my church his name was Ricky Linton… his vocals were Ridiculous I mean perfect pitch when he was going over different parts …even when he whistled it was perfect as well, if I’m not mistaking he worked with Aretha Franklin early on when he was younger, they’re runs and riffs vocally were very similar. One of my last conversations I had with him was that I asked him to train me, He told me yes and I was so excited, I promised I was going to be a sponge… soaking up all the his techniques. I shortly found out he was sick, not to long after he passed and we never got a chance to work together but he was definitely a true role model for me coming up …someone I will never forget!
What made you decide to get in your genre of music?
I have roots in Church and it will always be my foundation… Pop/R&B/Hip Hop and Country is what I connected to when I started my pursuit… So I wanted to leave an Imprint of my own expressing myself through these Genre’s
What's the name of your first single?
Tap Out
How did you come up with the name?
I wanted to choose something that was easy to remember and that Stood out as well, so those two words together are already familiar with people’s minds so it was a easy decision to make.
What is your feed back on the direction of hip hop?
Hip Hop like every Genre is always evolving and I personally feel that the balance of what is happening with today styles and the foundation that was laid in the very beginning will come together and create
the future of the Genre
If you could do a collabo with any artist who would it be and why?
Brandy, Beyonce, Drake, Kanye, Taylor Swift to name a few. The bodies of work these artist’s have laid is Unprecedented, they all have took risks expressing themselves and I fill that our chemistry will compliment each other to the fullest so I hope in the near future I will be able to work with all of them at some point.
So how does it feel to get your music out to the masses?
Truly it is a dream come true… or I should say My Dream meeting my Reality and My Reality meeting my Destiny I am Truly Overwhelmed with just knowing I have the opportunity to present my visions, my perceptions, my idea's musically to the world.
Tell us a little bit about your self?
I have a Strong Spiritual background…I’ve always had a love for Art in the form of Creating. I highly respect and have a love for acting… there is nothing like being captured by a moment for those few seconds taking you hostage (Action/Adventure and Sci-fi, and of course Comedy). I’m laid back but I can be very spontaneous… I wouldn’t call myself a comedian but I have made a lot of people laugh… I am Very Determined, Disciplined, strong willed, I'm not afraid to take a risk for what I believe in. Basketball is my first choice when it comes to sports… My Jump shot is Crazy… No Rim is safe! I have done a lot of Jobs but all Roads have led back to Music… its who I am.

During a time when everyone is a rapper, and every rapper packs their verses with lies about a lifestyle they never lived, in hopes to capture your attention and love, we are fortunate to have that rare artist breakthrough and make us think twice about what music rides with us in the morning to work or joins us at the gym in the evening. When every other rapper is telling stories of riches and glamour, Ali is regular guy working in the trenches, and when every other rapper sounds the same, Ali is drawing envy from the artist he is opening for! When you leave your favorite rappers concert, and you can’t help but think about the guy that opened up the show, that’s Ali Cashius Jr.
Ali began garnering respect as a rapper on the desolate Southwest Side of Detroit. He would battle any rapper at his High School and then sneak into night clubs around the city to battle grown men at the age of 16. Because of his mixed race, he had to learn to clap back quickly at kids who would target his ethnicity. With a father from the war torn country of Yemen, and a mother from Puerto Rico, Ali was constantly questioned about his nationality. Battle rap became less important daily, as Ali grew more frustrated watching his mother struggle with two jobs. With an absent father figure and a mother who was forced to bare the role of provider, Ali was left to come and go as he pleased, roaming the gang and drug infested streets on Detroit’s Southwest side. Losing friends to gang wars and drug deals gone wrong, Ali quickly learned that the place he loved could also be his downfall. From that moment, he realized he had to use his gift to tell his story and be a voice for the friends he lost. Financial troubles continued to follow Ali and his mother, so he decided to take matters into his own hands, and the traveling began. He moved from Detroit to Atlanta, Baltimore, and eventually Phoenix. With growth comes sacrifice, and moving led Ali to miss the funeral of one of his best friends in Detroit. A three-day Greyhound trip, and Ali arrived back in the city one hour after his friend’s funeral ended. Devastated by loss and frustration, Ali vowed to not return home until he could make his family proud and prove all the people who doubted him wrong. Since moving out West, Ali Cashius Jr. now has followers around the world who support the movement and new wave.
