I wonder if Heaven got a Datpiff and some soft-toe Reeboks?


Dearly beloved Louisiana rap fans, we are gathered here today to pay our final respects to one Frank Calhoune esquire, mercifully still breathing IRL but officially dead to us URL after rating Juvenile's Money On The Couch as the 2nd weakest song on Solja Rags yesterday. We come together in grief, acknowledging our loss as we did when Plum Drank removed his 2004 Gel And Weave blog post about Boosie from t'internet. May we share comfort in this time of mourning by paraphrasing the scriptures of New York's Leonard Da Baptist:

"Only thing I’m scared of is God and the Feds
Lost a lot of bloggas and they ain’t even dead
Money On The Couch is top 5 before it gets to the 1st hook
But f*ck the same page, Frankie ain’t even reading the same book"

    Agreed but Whos Tha MF prob @ number 1. Id put Retaliation in there as the Hot Boys cut but that song exists in like 3 different versions on different albums and can never remember which is which. Them escalating up beats like Hide Out Ride Out, U All In, N**gas In Trouble>>>>

    Man - are you aware A-Wax signed/might be in a group with, the chicago ofay who pulled out his gun for Vlad? Vlad didnt even have to ask this time! DJ Validation from an irl gang member

    Not seen the Vlad video but I am very much aware of him yeah. How could I not be - he's all up in every other pic A-Wax posts on IG and on Yung Cat's new album.

    Johnny Ferolito Jr really out here spunking his Iced Tea heir money funding blood saltine rappers with terrible neck tattoos.

    I was like did Wax jump him in? but then copped obv this is a v niche description, its that dude. Also confirmed on the IG the white rapper tradition of playing fast & loose w n-bombs still ongoing.

    And now I dont think thats his patron's condo. I think its A-Wax's, which Im sures all above board.

    1. Solja Rag
    2. Pimpinabitch
    3. Roll Wit 'Em
    4. I Did That
    5. Money On The Couch
