Flipped some new CLIPSE on a DJ PREMIER beat.. Just a ruff mix off my computer speakers but thinking I should do a full project??

Clipse dropped the video for “So Be It” on June 17. But the song didn’t hit DSPs until after they released their new album on 7/11. That was not their original plan. To get the backstory, I spoke with @Clipse’s manager Steven-San Victor. It turns out Swizz Beatz saved the day 🧵

No. pgLang is pgLang. They aren’t under Interscope or any major. Kendrick’s deal with Interscope runs through pgLang, but that’s the extent of it. pgLang has 2 other acts, neither signed to Interscope. Same model as TDE: label fit depends on the artist.

I can’t stress this enough: wait as long as possible before signing a record deal. Exhaust every resource, human and financial, first. Major or independent, timing is everything.

“I’m not embarrassed. I’m just surviving like every human has to.” That’s what iLoveMakonnen told me when I asked about the viral video of him in a restaurant kitchen. Everyone shared the clip, but nobody reached out to hear the story behind it. Until I did. A thread...🧵

Thug’s frustration over Kendrick not giving him a verse reminded me of this J. Cole quote about choosing feeling over a check: “I’m not gonna charge [artists] $2,000 a word. I don’t even charge for the verse. I’m doing this shit because I’m inspired.”

Kendrick Lamar just became only the third person in history to win multiple Emmys, multiple GRAMMYs, and a Pulitzer Prize. He joins Marvin Hamlisch and Lin-Manuel Miranda. From Compton to canon.
