JA RULE CREATES OWN CRYPTOCURRENCY PLUS LAUNCHES A NEW NFT PLATFORM
Ja Rule has created his own cryptocurrency and launched a new NFT platform called Flipkick.io in collaboration with serial entrepreneur Robert Testagrossa and engineer James Cropcho. The site serves as a platform for artists and celebrities like Ja Rule, as well as creators, to monetize their work in NFT form. In March, the Murder Inc. rapper sold a Fire Festival painting for a cool $122,000 in cryptocurrency and later in June signed a deal with Ethereum-based start-up Roll.
Ja Rule’s first introduction to NFTs was with NBA Top Shot. “I started collecting Top Shot NFTs and I didn’t even realise they were NFTs at the time,” he said. “I just thought they were like the new digital sports cards.”
Later in his interview with Bitcoin.com Ja Rule said he loves both Bitcoin and Ethereum and believes digital currency is the “obvious” next step in economics. He holds a little Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and Cardano and also announced the launch of his own cryptocurrency. Although there was no mention of a launch date he has said it is ‘ready to go’.
Featuring Not3s, B Young, JME and more artists, the grime star is back with a new album. Chip’s new sound includes previously released songs like “My Girl’ and “Right Now”, alongside 10 brand new tracks. He took a break from the grime scene to take on more of a pop sound in previous years, but has recently returned to where he belongs and this new album shows he’s not going anywhere- the album cover is so cute how can you not have a listen.
Thought two full-length album’s in 2018 was enough for Mr West? Think again. The release date for his third, yes third (!), album this year may be imminent due to him not to subtly hinting at it. Here is everything we know so far…
The album’s name is a combination of “Ye” and “Gandhi”, as Kanye merging “Ye” and “Jesus” for “Yeezus” wasn’t bad enough. News of the project began earlier in September when West dropped some tweets suggesting another album, and we all know he loves stirring things up on twitter. The “Touch The Sky” singer took these hints further on Instagram, posting a picture of a billboard with the caption “YANDHI 9 29 18” which we think is the release date, meaning it’s coming any day now. Also he potentially dropped the album artwork on insta- a minidisc with purple tape, copying his 2013 YEEZUS album.
Speculations have also suggested Chance the Rapper will feature on the album as the pair are already working on a new album together called “Good Ass Job”. Does Kanye West ever sleep or is he just constantly working on new albums? Lil Pump is also another suspected feature artists after him and Ye released “I Love It” earlier this month alongside that weird, weird cartoon music video of them .
AJ Tracey has linked up with Californian producer D33J for a brand-new track named “Other Man”. The collab brings together the grime artist’s distinct British style mixed with a LA rap-inspired production for a innovative sound.
This is not the first sound to be produced outside the West London native’s comfort zone. His track “3Am” with Bauer presents his experimental sounds, along with “Butterflies” with Not3s which also apparently was made by the pair sat on a sofa in 20 minutes. If only we were that musically talented…
