Release date for new Snoop Dogg & Eminem song is here!

Mt. Westmore, a hip hop supergroup composed of California-based legendary rappers Snoop Dogg, E-40, Too Short and Ice Cube, are dropping new album soon.

The group have released new single “Bad MF’s” and the release date of the album came with it. The self-titled project is dropping on April 20, 2022 and it includes only one feature: EMINEM.

Here is what Snoop previously said about the song:

“There is Snoop Dogg and Eminem song on my Westmore album. It is called “From Detroit to the LBC.” That motherf**ker slapped. That s**t is HUH! It was very challenging for me. Eminem really f**king shot at me. He shot his shot and as a rapper that’s what you want when you get a feature, to have to work you f**king a** off. He is going that hard because he knows I’m going to match him on the same level and that’s what it is when you making records with people that you love. It’s competitive but for the right reason. To bring the best out of each other.”

“That’s a monster jam! It’s so good Dr. Dre said ‘why you ain’t give me one like that?!'” Snoop told Ebro Darden in an interview on Apple Music’s Beats 1.

While we waiting for the new album, you can bump the new single below:

Skylar Grey votes for Eminem as a voting member of Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame

Eminem: Unbridled controversy. Unparalleled talent. Unmatched superstardom. As the single best-selling artist of all time, a 15-time Grammy and Academy award winner, 6 diamond certification holder and the first artist to have 10 consecutive No. 1 debut albums on the US Billboard 200, Eminem’s accolades speak for themselves.

His world-renowned status solidified hip-hop as the most commercially successful music on the planet and deserved a spot on the list of Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame nominees in the very first year of eligibility.

It seems Skylar Grey is a voting member of the Rock Hall committee. She has recently shared a story on her Instagram where the long-time Eminem collaborator check-marked Slim Shady on the official Ballot paper.

Royce 5’9″ calls out Jimmy Iovine for ignoring The Game at LA Lakers game

After his appearance on Drink Champs last couple of week, The Game’s dissension with Dr. Dre and Interscope Records escalated quickly.

During the interview, The Compton rapper said Kanye West did more for him in a matter of weeks than Dr. Dre has his entire career.

It seems that the tension between Jimmy Iovine and The Game is real as a video clip surfaced this week where Game and Iovine crossed paths at the Lakers vs. 76ers game at the Staples Center without even looking at each other.

Royce Da 5’9″ used the opportunity to back up The Game and shade Jimmy Iovine on social media by sharing two video clips on Instagram. One video is from an interview where Jimmy Iovine said that there were not many partnerships between White and Black people, implying that he and Dre did it. Second video is Game and Iovine briefly crossing paths at the Lakers game.

In the caption, Royce wrote: “The music business in 2 slides,” along with a peace sign emoji and an eye-rolling emoji.

In support on Jimmy, Ben Baller, a former Vice President of A&R for Aftermath, commented: “Jimmy Iovine helped me get my job with Dre even though I knew Dre. Real talk? He did this to me tw times at a Lakers game and now we work together again! He is old bro. He probably did not even know Game.”

Kinda how it is like today but back then it was some rap battle s**t. It used to be intense and everybody knew Eminem was the king of all that s**t. He was undefeated. He was like Floyd Mayweather of rap battle s**t… Eminem returning to battle rap? I don’t know if it will ever happen. I can’t never say never.” – said Bizarre.

Math Hoffa, Grafh & the crew discuss The Game vs Eminem: “Em is animal”

Math Hoffa has recently discussed The Game VS Eminem with special guests GRAFH and H20 and guest hosts ESSO and SEAN BIGGA on the latest episode of “My Expert Opinion.” You can check the conversation below.

Grafh: The Game is doing that because he wants to be mentioned next to Eminem. I do s**t like that. That’s like Chess move. He’s not dissing him because he is just out of nowhere. He is like, ‘I want to be compared to this person, let me put my name in the same sentence.’ He’s smart. That’s business movies but Em is too lyrical. That ni**a is animal. Em influenced my s**t too. Em is like one of the GOATs to me, to keep it a buck with you. That ni**a is stupid, his skillset is alien-like.”

H2O: I feel like Game been reaching. Eminem is Eminem. So what better person come when you doing an interview, what better person to come at than Eminem? He’s probably the biggest name in hip-hop.

ESSO: The Game can rhyme. He can f**king rap but is he rapping on Em’s level? Nah. Everybody knows that. But it’s entertainment. We can enjoy it.

Grafh: I’m not even a huge fan of new Eminem but his skill set, ni**a! What you taking about? Let’s keep it a buck.”
