Logic and Eminem just dropped a new collaboration called “Homicide”. It will be the third single off Logic’s upcoming album Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, which was announced by Logic earlier this week.
The structure of the song is two verses and a chorus by Logic, a long, prolific verse by Slim Shady, and an outro by Chris D’Elia. Both Logic and Eminem spit their bars incredibly fast and as stated on Genius.com, the whole thing sounds like a playground for the two to exhibit their MC prowess.
There are multiple stand-out bars in this song with some of them going up to seven instances of the same rhyme. For example, my favorite bit in the song comes from Eminem, when he raps: “With so many foul lines, you think I’m a free throw/Figured it was about time for people to eat crow/You about to get out-rhymed, how could I be dethroned?/I stay on my toes like the repo, a behemoth in sheep clothes/From the East Coast to the West, I’m the ethos and I’m the G.O.A.T/Who the best, I don’t gotta say a fuckin’ thing, though”. Shady has always had a large vocabulary and here raps “dethroned”, “behemoth”, and “ethos”. He likely did well on the SAT.

Pop music sweetheart Lawand, (@LawandMusic), is painting the town gold with her infectious new single. The fresh-faced songstress slid onto the music scene late last year, with a combination of upbeat singles and dope covers. As a result the 21 year olds music is a medley of captivating sounds and rhythms. Lawand is creating a niche lane in the music industry by being featured on legendary music platforms such as The Source and indie platforms such as #MusicCrushMondays with @DyeTai of New Yorks Hot 97. Her fans, or “Wander-ers” as the singer affectionately calls them, have surpassed the 50k mark on IG with the help of eye-catching visual campaigns like #SheAintGold. A campaign for her latest single that featured women and girls of all ages beautifully displaying their self-love and empowerment.
Today I caught up with Lawand as she filmed an interview at the famed Stronghold Shop, a fashion and cultural hot spot in the heart of Bloomfield, NJ. Scroll down to see how it unfolded:

Notez: So Lawand, what started your love for sneakers?
Lawand: I always liked the way sneakers looked they were just cool. They always had a bunch of designs and they’re really comfortable. So like whenever you just needed something to put on you just got a pair of sneakers!
Notez: What was your first pair of kicks?
Lawand: My mom put me in whatever she felt like putting me, like these little baby Jordans or something. But the first pair of sneakers that I bought with my own money, I got these Nike Air Force Ones, the black and gray ones.
Notez: Okay, that’s actually my first pair pretty crazy.
Lawand: Really? And I had to get them boy’s size.
Notez: That’s the thing about girls, you can wear our sizes and its cool.
Notez: So I gotta ask, sneakers or heels and why?
Lawand: I’d say heels, because I’m really tall, so heels accentuate my height. But it depends on the day but overall I would pick heels. Well If I had to go pick up money from somebody, I’d put my sneaks on.
Notez: Yo if you owe her bread son, you betta pay up !
Lawand: That is the vibe
(Both Laughs)
Notez: How would you describe your style?
Lawand: I would describe it as street/glam because I do like to wear sneakers and heels. So heels is more glam, sneakers is more street and I kinda like to combine the two. I’ll wear heels with a street graphic tee and make it a dress.
Notez: Yeah you have to switch it up on them. I actually like the fact that we both have the pink vibe going right now.
Lawand: On Wednesday’s we wear pink and today is Wednesday!
Notez: What’s your go to kicks?
Lawand: Converse. Yeah, these are actually Converse yea that have a lil fuzz and a lil platform. I love Converse. You can do anything with Converse.
Notez: Obviously the converse they are the kind of go to versatile sneaker. Shout out Chuck Taylor one time.
Lawand: Their stylish, their functional, they cover your ankles if you didn’t put lotion on. You should always put lotion on!
Notez: So when you put that drip on, are you looking for more lifestyle or function?
Lawand: I feel like my lifestyle and my function is style.
Notez: So they coincide its one thing?
Lawand: Yeah so my function is to be stylish. So I gotta put on something that’s fly, like walk out the door and just be fly to death.
Notez: Walk out the door and just take off?
Lawand: Like Red Bull – Wings!
Notez: She’s always on point; you’ll never catch her lacking. So now that you’re becoming a young drip lord do you only go out to the new items or do you still rock some older pieces or you prefer older pieces?
Lawand: I really like old stuff honestly; vintage is really cool to me. I feel like new fashion is all just vintage stuff making a come back. I’m all about the overall look and getting a certain style and feeling across through an outfit. So I don’t think it really matters if it’s old or new.
Notez: Whatever the look requires, that’s what we’re going to do.
Lawand: Yea ‘cause if I already have it in my closet, why would I go out and buy something new! (laughs)
Notez: Alright so I gotta ask you, what you got going on for yourself?
Lawand: I just dropped a music video called Gold.
Notez: Let’s get it!
Lawand: My singles out also called Gold.
Notez: Fire! Go get that! All Platforms!
Lawand: Every platform, all of them! My EP’s coming out in like a couple weeks. We’re having a party that we’re going to do for the EP. So lots going on all the time.
Notez: She’s already saying summer is hers fall back. Nobody’s working harder to her right now in these streets. STAMPED IT! STAMPED IT! LAWAND!

![[News] Soulja Boy Sentenced To 240 Days in Jail](https://i0.wp.com/sloppyvinyl.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/soulja-boy.jpeg?resize=600%2C400&ssl=1)
TMZ is reporting that rapper Soulja Boy was sentenced to 240 days in jail and 265 days of community service due to violation of his probation.
The Atlanta rapper was caught forging his probation community service hours, as well as having weapon ammunition in his home. The judge has credited him with 40 days served, so it is a lenient sentence from the court.
It seems like Soulja got off a bit easy here, consider the judge could have issued a two year sentence. Instead, it’ll be just eight months behind bars for the often trouble rapper.
Soulja Boy resurfaced into the mainstream late 2018, early 2019, after he started selling a laundry list of bizarre electronic items, most notably the “Soulja Game;” a video game console.
Soulja Boy also had a memorable appearance on the Breakfast Club, where he put on a very memorable, meme-worthy, performance. Since then, it has been a bit of a come down from the alleged Soulja renaissance.
As for the jail sentencing, that is all the information that is available now, we will update accordingly if more information surfaces.

![[Music] ‘Acid Rap’ Turns Six Years Old Today](https://i0.wp.com/sloppyvinyl.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/acid-rap.jpeg?resize=980%2C490&ssl=1)
Six years ago, a Chicago kid named Chancellor Bennett released his second mixtape, Acid Rap, and the rest is history. Chance The Rapper created one of the most iconic and critically acclaimed records of the 21st century and today we celebrate its existence.
Chance, then a relative unknown, followed up his first mixtape 10 Day with a drug induced sound, utilizing his raspy voice and creative production team to make an incredible, innovative record. The thing that makes Acid Rap such a triumph, is that it is so uniquely original it became immensely clear that Chance was destined to be a star.
The tape features a bevy of collaborators, most of whom were relatively unknown, or at least not nearly as popular as they are now. Childish Gambino, Noname, Saba, Vic Mensa and Action Bronson all stopped by to record a feature on the mixtape. When a project is filled with features there is typically a good chance that some of them are lost in the midst of everything else happening on the record, but on Acid Rap each guest on their respective track really makes their time memorable.
Chance follow Acid Rap with his most recent mixtape, Coloring Book. Released in 2015, Coloring Book was a diversion from the acid induced sound, and instead exchanged for a fusion of gospel, jazz and rap music. While the projects sound quite different, it’s a testament of the talent and artistry Chance possesses, and his ability to create new and exciting projects. He announced earlier this year, that his debut studio album will be released some time during July of 2019.
Bump some Acid Rap today, and let us hope that Chance continues to pump out classics. What is your favorite track? Leave a comment below and let us know.
