Two years ago, Noisey went to Chicago to make a documentary series called Chiraq. It focused on drill artists like Chief Keef, Lil Durk, Lil Reese and Young Chop and was controversial in its portrayal of the city. Now, we have Noisey Chicago, shot last year in the South Side of city where we revisit some of the characters from Noisey Chiraq to find out what's happened to them since we last met. We also explore the problems and solutions that the artists and residents of Chicago are dealing with, in a city where the murder rate is out of control and its victims are getting younger and younger every year. Features Chief Keef, Vic Mensa, Common, Lil Durk and Young Chop.

After heading out in South Memphis earlier this month with goons and guns looking for Young Dolph, Collective Music Group recording artist Blac Youngsta takes aim at the Paper Route Empire boss on this new diss song titled "Shake Sum." The Murder Beatz-produced track is off of Blac's "Young & Reckless" mixtape, available now on Datpiff http://www.datpiff.com/Blac-Youngsta-Young-Reckless-mixtape.772999.html.
The tension between Young Dolph and Yo Gotti has reached a boiling point.
On Wednesday, March 16, Paper Route Empire boss, Young Dolph. released several Instagram videos taking shots at his Memphis counterpart. The captions said it all.
"First thang first everybody kno it's u HO GOTTI, dats sendin your artist out to say da lame shit he been sayin and doin ..LOL(lame)... I GUESS U STILL MAD CAUSE I DIDN'T NEVER SIGN WIT YO PUSSY ASS.. Or is u still in your feelings cause u fail out wit Gucci Mane and u was mad at me cause I kept rockin wit Gucci," Dolph wrote. "Sound like a lotta BITCH SHIT TO ME.. How u do all dat HATIN on me, then go put da police on me.. shit sad... U CAME IN DA GAME HATIN ON 3-6 Mafia, NOW U HATIN ON DOLPH(smh) WWF ass nixxa‼️ #iTriedToSpareYourPUSSYass #YouDidItToYourself #TalkForYourselfBITCH #YourArtistNeverMetMEinHisLife #FakestRapperInTheGameGoToHoGotti smh.
currently on da eway in one of my foreign's dat I got off da SHOWROOM floor wit 0 mileage... And I got HO' GOTTI first 3 record deals on my wrist," he continued.

Take dat monkey shit off u embarrassing us‼️ smh.... #FakestRapperInTheGameGoesToHoGotti #TalkForYourselfBITCH."
This has been bubbling under the surface for a while now. There are reports that Gotti hasn't been happy with Dolph since the rapper turned down his offer to join Collective Music Group several years ago.
Dolph recently dropped an album titled "King of Memphis" on the same day Gotti released "The Art of Hustle." The King of Memphis title has belonged to Gotti for a while now.
Earlier this month CMG artist, Blac Youngsta, pulled up in South Memphis with guns and goons looking for Dolph.
Hopefully this can be squashed before it escalates any further.

In songs he refers to himself as Spud Mack. There is an authenticity when Spud weaves these street hymns and stories. Spud was imprisoned for 6 years in 2005, which he does not use as a bragging point but, a point of reference for others to know which path to choose along with giving the listener a deep look at life from a first-hand experience.

(Reuters) Republican front-runner Donald Trump warned on Wednesday of riots if he is denied the party's presidential nomination and pulled the plug on a scheduled debate among candidates, raising the temperature even more in a heated White House race.
The outspoken New York businessman scored big wins in primaries in Florida, Illinois and North Carolina on Tuesday, bringing him closer to the 1,237 convention delegates he needs to win the nomination.
Trump also claimed victory in Missouri but lost the crucial state of Ohio, and left the door open for those in the party trying to stop him from becoming the Republican nominee for the Nov. 8 election.
Trump might fall short of the majority of delegates required, enabling the party's establishment to put forward another name at the July convention in Cleveland to formally pick its candidate.
In an interview with CNN on Wednesday, Trump said the party could not deny him the nomination should he fail to win enough delegates.
"I don't think you can say that we don't get it automatically. I think you'd have riots. I think you'd have riots. I'm representing many, many millions of people."
While the Republicans were mired deeper in turmoil, Hillary Clinton won victories in at least four states on Tuesday that put her in good shape to defeat Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont and win the Democratic Party's nomination.
Republican Party leaders are appalled at Trump's incendiary rhetoric and reject policies such as his vow to deport 11 million illegal immigrants, temporarily ban Muslims from the United States and build a wall along the Mexican border.
The party tried to play down his riot comments, only days after Trump supporters and protesters clashed at a rally for the Republican in Chicago that was later scrapped.
"First of all, I assume he is speaking figuratively," Republican National Committee spokesman Sean Spicer told CNN.
Recent outbreaks of violence during protests at Trump rallies have prompted President Barack Obama, a Democrat, and mainstream Republican figures to speak out against the billionaire. David Farber, a professor of modern American history at Temple University in Philadelphia, said that, though there have been many episodes of violent unrest at American political events, not least the 1968 Democratic convention, Trump's warning of a riot is unprecedented.

When Universal Pictures initially started it's social media marketing campaign for the movie "Straight Outta Compton" they had a dilemma on their hands.
Executives felt like the original trailer would resonate with African Americans and Hispanics, many of whom grew up on NWA's music, but the company was unsure how to market it to white audiences.
According to Business Insider, a plan was hatched by Univeral's “multicultural team” to show different trailers on Facebook. One would be catered to whites and the others to non-whites.
The plan was simple. SinceIce Cubehad achieved mainstream success as an actor andDr. Drewas known worldwide forBeats By Dre, the "white" Facebook trailer focused solely on their rise to success and didn't mentionNWAat all.
African Americans saw the clip centered on the group's road to stardom. The trailer for Hispanics was basically the same, just shorter and included flashing quotes in Spanish.
Universal’s EVP of digital marketing, Doug Neil, and Facebook’s entertainment head, Jim Underwood, talked to a panel this week at South By Southwest and admitted to being surprised at the film's box office success.
“I shouldn’t say a surprise,” Neil corrected. “A breakout hit.”
According to Box Office Mojo, the film made $161,197,785 in the U.S. and a total of $201,634,991 worldwide.
Neil characterized this marketing effort as a complete success.
