According to a familiar cliché, a picture is worth a thousand words. Your favorite celebrities—including rappers—are doing less and less press, but luckily their thumbs and smartphones still work. Instagram has provided a way for them to document their lives and/or thoroughly embarrass themselves for our collective enjoyment. The beauty of it all is that you don’t even need to join Instagram, as most rappers are perfectly fine leaving their feeds open for public viewing. And if you’d rather avoid the IG life altogether, we’ve filtered through the top rapper’s pictures and videos and consolidated all the week’s events into one convenient feed.
This week, Gunplay defends MMG and threatens to slap Kidd Kidd, Peter Rosenberg reacts to Big Kap passing away, and Kim Kardashian and Amber Rose link up.

Bow Wow recently reveals that he had plans to host his own late talk show like so many stars before him. Shad Moss is 28 years old.
Caption: “First time people saw me was on Arsenio Hall show. So its only right i go back to where it started.first let me thank him by paving the way because i wouldn’t have did what I’m about to do. I been quietly working on a project that i felt was needed. When i hosted 106 i knew then i could do whatever (talent wise) but i did not own 106 i had little control and i gots to be the man because im a creator. So when i cant be creative well… But i learned so much to the point i will have my own late night show coming. I get to run my own show content etc… We will have the best producers and show runners in the game! Wont be like ANYTHING ON TV. Its going to be a show YOU HAVE TO WATCH. Music will play an important key to the show. I felt i HAD to do this. Theres no platform for hip hop artist no more. Where can they go to promote on tv other than revolt (they still growing) thats crazy 1 outlet?!! Music videos became less important. College kids and high school students have nothing at 10pm to really look forward to. Where my guest could be Kendrick lamar w j cole performing live. To having Michelle Obama on. I found my stride. I want to help the culture and this is my way of giving back to the game that made me! Get ready i’m going through set designs now. REMEMBER I NEVER WANTED TO BE THE BEST RAPPER, but the GREATEST MULTI ENTERTAINER OF ALL TIME FOR MY ERA. Ps.. I WANT MY FIRST GUEST TO BE NONE OTHER THAN LAKER LEGEND KOBE BRYANT! i want to kixk the show off w him.#shadmoss#BowcomingtolatenightTV#HISTORY#showwillbeINCREDIBLE#lasttodothisarsineohall#younglegend”

The Game Clarifies Ruling In $10 Million Lawsuit
The Game uses social media to issue his response to the $10 million, sexual assault lawsuit he lost this week.Caption: “Let’s get one thing very CLEAR: that thirsty Gatorade mascot of a transvestite WILL NEVER see $10,000,000 or anything close 2 a penny of my money. People think because they read a headline in BOLD PRINT it’s true. She won a judgment of 10 million $’s & that means that a judge because I’m overseas has given this chicken a chance 2 MAYBE be able to afford a lifetime supply of lace front hair glue if my lawyers don’t respond to this suit by the 26th of this month which they will do tomorrow am. Soon as I’m home, me & my lawyers will EAT THIS CASE like a box of Minion Twinkies on sale at Walmart ! @VH1 has a seperate suit filed against them by this Thot Bot that they will also win because #1 this BIYATCH (Snoop’s voice) is a liar. She has a history of theft, fraud, prostitution arrests & a lot of other “Tranny Panty” activity in her past that makes this false claim irrelevant. Don’t be fooled by these accusations or the dollar amount in the headlines cause I put that on my favorite aunties poodle this broad ain’t gettin shit ! Every girl on that show will tell u I never touched this chick or ever desired to be anywhere near her. She got kicked off the show & as a result she filed this lame lawsuit which was probably her intentions before the show was ever even started. She was begging for my attention the entire time we shot the show & was given the ultimate Major League Baseball CURVE ball so that upset her & made her lil wee wee hard so she did what all chicks like her do when life gives them no other options…. They sue you ! This is really a crying shame so at this point I will use the crying shame emoji ????. See you in court Mister Rainey. N I say Mr. because ur mustache is probably a bit longer than it was during taping being that it’s about to be spring & that’s usually when mine is at its healthiest, hit @Beboprbarber for the best mustache edge up u can find. Tell em I sent u & it’s on the house u dusty bitch you !#TellEmBoutThatScratchNSniffWigYouBeWearing#HairyAssUnderArms#BitchWasUsingMyOldSpice (insert old spice whistle) #PS#iHateAll17OfYoWigs#AndYesIFlushedUrClosurePieceDownTheWaffleHouseToilet take these ????? #JuwannaMann”

Masta Ace Pens Open Letter: Has Hip Hop Lost Its Soul?
AD LOADING...
Masta Ace pens an open letter asking “Has Hip Hop Lost It’s Soul???” The Brooklyn, New York rapper recently appeared on Street Soldiers and Hot 97 programs and was asked to write about whether or not Hip Hop has lost its soul.
Caption: “”HAS HIP HOP LOST IT’S SOUL???” -Open Letter
This past weekend I appeared as a guest on “Street Soldiers” with @LisaEvers which aired on @fox5ny Saturday night and a affiliate Radio Station WQHT #hot97 early Sunday morning. As part of agreeing to be on the show I was asked to write a few paragraphs on the topic ‘Has Hip Hop Lost its Soul’. Unfortunately the conversation never really lead down a path where I could make some of the points I wanted to make. I thought i would share with you all the paragraphs I submitted to the show regarding this topic:
When I think about the state of today’s hip hop I am reminded of Sister Souljah’s iconic phrase “We Are At War”! We are at war with ourselves. We realize the importance of hip hop having a place at the table of today’s music genres. We feel the need to celebrate today’s successful hip hop artists because they are representing our music and culture. At the same time we are torn because when we dissect the prevailing images and messages dominating the forefront, it disturbs us. We know all too well the influence OUR music has on the next generation of young people. We notice the lack of balance in the music and messages being broadcasted to the masses of young influential fans. The SOUL of hip hop has never left. The broadcasting of that SOUL has disappeared from radio and television. The Golden age of hip hop was a truly balanced representation of hip hop. We balanced 2 Live Crew with Public Enemy. NWA was balanced by Heavy D and the Boyz. Ice T balance by Big Daddy Kane and Rakim! Many of these groups even toured together in those days. There is an unannounced agenda to the playlists that exist at today’s commercial radio stations. Hip Hop’s SOUL is intact…we just need MORE of it played for our children.”
