By any meaningful measure, the troubled young Baton Rouge rapper YoungBoy Never Broke Again is one of the biggest stars in all of rap music. YoungBoy continues to crank out new music at a wild clip — his Colors mixtape came out just last month — and his YouTube numbers are mind-boggling. But YoungBoy still seems like an outsider within the larger rap establishment. Part of that is because YoungBoy seems to be in constant legal trouble; he’s currently, for instance, awaiting federal trial on gun and drug charges. (Last year, the FBI arrested YoungBoy on an outstanding warrant after a brief chase.) But YoungBoy also seemingly has a hard time getting along with his rap-star peers.

Things haven’t been going so great for the troubled rap genius Gucci Mane lately. He recently alienated a ton of industry friends in a deranged Twitter rant, admitted to a codeine addiction, lost his label deal, and got sentenced to six months of prison on a probation violation. And he’s still cranking out music. Gucci [...]

The ambitious Seattle rap production duo Blue Sky Black Death released their sprawling album Glaciers this week, and it’s notably low on actual rap. And it’s not like that needed a corrective, since Glaciers is an absorbing and gorgeous record. But now it’s got a corrective anyway: “Keys,” a new ...

Before Kendrick Lamar had his “Control” verse, Gucci Mane had “Birds Of A Feather,” the song where he recklessly named just about every rapper he knew and let them know exactly where they stood with him. (This was, of course, a predictor of the Twitter rampage that got Gucci kicked off of Atlantic and sent...
