The Singles Bar: Nixon Nyce “No Pain”

Here at Popblerd, we believe in helping our own. Nixon Nyce is not only a contributor to this site, but he is also an up and coming rapper who we’ve profiled before. He also suffers from MS.

The Singles Bar: Drake – Headlines

After keeping the world fed with ‘Marvin’s Room’ & ‘Trust Issues’, Drake is back to rapping (kinda, sorta).

Banned From TV: Red Nation?

Or maybe it was Deeper Than Rap like Ricky Rozay said? It may have been deep enough to get banned on BET & MTV before being released via the internet today. The Game is back with the lead single “Red Nation” featuring YMCMB’s @LilTunechi from his upcoming album “R.E.D.” The Jay-Z Run This Town-esque video may need a few extra colors to get the tv execs to lighten up. Check it out below then flash back to the “All Black […]
