The Rap Up

The greatest hip-hop blog of all-time. Of all time.

@ShabaamSahdeeq Good outlook on life. Peace.

[The Rap Up @TheRapUp]

@ShabaamSahdeeq blog's been shut down for almost a year now but we've never disrespected you or your music.

[The Rap Up @TheRapUp]

@ShabaamSahdeeq Glad you feel that way. We meant it in the sense that your debut album got screwed by label politics just like Charli's did.
