Travi$ Scott Announces "Rodeo" Tour Dates

Travi$ Scott announces a brief tour in support of his debut album, "Rodeo." We're now just four days away from receiving Travi$ Scott's highly anticipated debut album, Rodeo. The rapper has already been announced as a special guest on The Weeknd's fall tour, which is exciting enough, however Travi$ will also be doing his own stint to promote Rodeo. Taking to his website today, the rapper revealed several upcoming "Days After Rodeo" tour dates. The tour kicks off in his home of Houston on the night his album drops, before he heads to both the East and West Coasts. It's a short run of just seven dates, but it's possible he'll add more or do a second leg, so we'll keep you posted. For now you can check if he's hitting a city near you above.

Isaiah Rashad Teases A New Project Coming Soon

Isaiah Rashad says he submitted a project to TDE. Isaiah Rashad has been quiet since joining the Top Dawg family in 2013. Though there have been whispers of a collab with Ab-Soul, he's only released one project via TDE, Cilvia Demo EP in February 2014. But it appears that we'll be hearing more from him soon. Sunday evening, he tweeted out rather casually that he'd just submitted a project to TDE CEO Anthony Tiffith. "Just turned in this project to [Anthony Tiffith]," he wrote. "Look like we might be jammin out in a minute huh..." Hopefully Tiffith approves the project ASAP. IF you're looking for other Tennessee rappers to tide you over in the mean time, check out Tim Gent's Clarksville Nights, one of the most underrated mixtapes of the year.

just turned in this project to @dangerookipawaa .. look like we might be jammin out in a minute huh..

Chance The Rapper Critiques Miley Cyrus' Hosting Duties At MTV VMAs

Chance The Rapper wasn't a fan of Miley Cyrus' hosting job at the 2015 MTV VMAs last night. Miley Cyrus was the host of last night's MTV VMAs. In brief summation, she rocked outrageous and unabashedly ugly outfits, wore fake dreads, promoted her ~super cool~ love of marijuana, dissed Nicki Minaj's issues with the VMAs and participated in several corny skits. A lot of people weren't feeling it, and Chance The Rapper was one of them. We were live tweeting during the VMAs last night, and Chance did the same, however he was definitely a tad more critical, and rightly so. In several tweets, Chance pointed out some of the faults with Miley's hosting, whether it was her commentary or her outfit. What were your thoughts on the event, or Miley Cyrus' hosting in general? Sound off in the comments.

Police Sketch Bears Strange Resemblance To T.I., According To Twitter

Twitter users found a police sketch released yesterday looked an awful lot like T.I. Yesterday, Fox 5 Atlanta reported on an attempted abduction in Atlanta, sharing a police sketch of the man in question. The picture drew a fair amount of attention on Twitter, unfortunately not to bring awareness to a dangerous threat in the neighborhood, but instead the drawing's strange resemblance to rapper T.I. The image was passed around on social media, with users commenting on the coincidental look-a-like. While it's not really a subject to joke about, it's easy to see the comparison. Just to be clear, it goes without saying that T.I. didn't actually have anything to do with the incident. Take a look at the tweets from users below. Do you see any resemblance between the sketch and the ATL rapper? Meanwhile, T.I. is said to be working on his 10th studio album, which -- last we heard -- is set to be titled, The Dime Trap.

Jay Z Caved And Got An Instagram Account

Give the homie @hovsince96 a follow. Jay Z finally caved and got an Instagram account, opting for the handle @hovsince96. He dedicated his inaugural post with a tribute to Michael Jackson, who would have turned 57 years old today. The picture depicts a younger Jay Z rocking a Latrell Sprewell jersey and posing with the late singer. “Happy Birthday to the King! This may be my first and last post," he wrote. Jay Z isn't much of a Twitter guy either, except for that time when he rattled off an extensive Twitter defense of Tidal. As of press time, it's been three hours since Jay Z's post and he's already racked up 70,000 Instagram followers.
