This week on Rap Review Room, we're breaking down a packed week of hip-hop news, controversy, culture and new music.
JAY-Z fans reacted after the JAŸ-Z30 listening experience featured his classic catalog rather than the new music some listeners were hoping for. Meanwhile, Pusha T confirmed more Clipse music is already in the works with Pharrell, while also revealing another project is already finished.
We're also discussing Rick Ross calling attention to The Game's The Documentary III sales despite its high-profile features, including Drake.
Outside of music, the Los Angeles Clippers were stripped of five future first-round picks and fined $30 million following the NBA's investigation involving Kawhi Leonard.
Plus, we get into Doja Cat opening up about her past cocaine use and struggles with alcohol, mental health and self-image, and the major development in the Tupac Shakur case: Duane “Keffe D” Davis was found guilty of first-degree murder, with sentencing scheduled for October 13.
And Kendrick Lamar was named BMI's 2026 R&B/Hip-Hop Songwriter of the Year, recognized for six of the previous year's most-performed songs.
Then we're wrapping everything up with Music for the Week and what deserves a spot on your playlist.
What was the BIGGEST story of the week? And did you expect JAY-Z to finally give us new music? 👀🔥
