Desus & Mero Reportedly Leaving VICELAND for Showtime

Nearly two years ago, comedy duo Desus Nice and The Kid Mero (official respected OnSMASH originals), took their talents from the digital world and became giants in the late-night world. The show was pitted up with fellow cable rivals, The Daily Show and Conan on TBS.

Surprisingly, The Bodega Boyz held their own against competition from the heavyweights to gain notice of CBS Corporations. So much, that CBS is planning to give them a larger platform, as Desus and Mero are reportedly taking their talents from VICELAND to Showtime.

The current series is expected to air its final episode on June 28th, which will transition from daily late-night episodes to a major weekly show. It’s unclear when the new series on Showtime will air; but we’re assuming it’ll be part of their big fall eighteen line-up; going up against HBO’s Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. Let us know in the comments what you think of the move.

Chance the Rapper – Work Out / Wala Cam / I Might Need Security / 65th Ingleside

Earlier this week, reports surfaced that Chance the Rapper was releasing an official album, before his pending 7-track collaborative effort with Kanye West. Well, Chance unfortunately debunked the story, saying that we weren’t getting an album this week; but said he was still in the studio. Luckily, Chano III kept his word and has blessed the public with four new songs for the summer. Here, you can listen to his new cuts: “ Work Out ” “ Wala Cam ” “ I Might Need Security ” and “ 65th Ingleside ” – serving as an appetizer to the full project later this year. Sorry no album this week, def been in the stu tho. 😎 — Chance The Rapper (@chancetherapper) July 17, 2018

JAY-Z Calls Out Philly Mayor Over ‘Made in America’ Move

JAY-Z has written an op-ed for the The Philadelphia Inquirer, after Philly mayor Jim Kenney stopped Made in America from taking place on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway in 2019. “We are disappointed that the mayor of the city of Philadelphia would evict us from the heart of the city, through a media outlet, without a sit-down meeting, notice, dialogue, or proper communication,” JAY said. “It signifies zero appreciation for what Made In America has built alongside the phenomenal citizens of this city. In fact, this administration immediately greeted us with a legal letter trying to stop the 2018 event.”
