T.I. Punches Back With One More 50 Cent Diss Track
So TI has a new diss track out…again. This marks number five from his camp. It is in time for 50 Cent’s first audio missive against the Atlanta rapper. The former’s output has been steady and strong while the latter is just mouthing some words. Fif’s response may be too little too late at this point.

Ozzfest return
In a previous article i wrote regarding Ozzfest I wrote about how I don't think that Ozzfest should return with Ozzy and quite frankly I still don't. However, I have looked at it from both sides of the aisle as they say and though i stand by my point of view i also see that Ozzfest should carry on and it would be a great way to carry on and honor Ozzy's name and legacy and also still fly the flag for heavy music and metal as it had always done.

The album feels like a manifesto, a therapy session, a victory lap, and a late-night confession booth all wrapped in bass-heavy production and fearless genre play. It’s cohesive without being predictable, and that’s the magic that is Pap.
