After seeing the finished product, I have no doubt that Deadpool 2 will dominate the box office but really it’s a question of whether it should.

No matter how much Deadpool, which dropped in February 2016, proved that blockbusters were no longer relegated to the months between June and August, the summer of 2018 is different. Summer movie season is upon us now, here are the best of the best.

There's no doubt about it: Nicki Minaj is a star. But let’s say some folks are still on the fence about the illuminating wattage of her star power. All you have to do is check her lyrical resume.

With 19 MCU films now in our rearview, it's high time we started arguing to see how these titanic movies stack up against each other. Consider it a civil war, and after the smoke cleared, this is what was left. Here’s a ranking of the best (and the worst) of the universe Marvel Studios built.

Despite being one of the biggest mainstream successes in recent rap history, Drake is no stranger to haters, who long to bring him down once and for all: he’s too sensitive, he’s played out, his Caribbean accent sucks (Okay, that one is kind of fair). The ghostwriting accusations didn’t help, and have made critics even more quick to downplay Drake’s success, and even more reluctant to give credit where credit is due.

Atlanta continues to produce some of the biggest acts in rap these days, and Migos are at the forefront of the latest crop of artists shining. Consisting of Quavo, Offset, and Takeoff, the ATL trio started off feeding the streets, and before long gained traction on the mainstream level while still staying true to their trap roots.

You oftentimes hear the phrase "your favorite rapper's favorite rapper" thrown around loosely, but in Pusha T's case the description is appropriate. The Virginia Beach representative,​ who initially built his rep brick by brick, switched to raps around the turn of the millennium and has since mastered the craft, earning the respect of his big homies, contemporaries, and up-and-comers in the process.

After making a splash in Jordan Peele's 'Get Out,' Lil Rel Howery has been seen on HBO's 'Insecure,' 'The Carmichael Show,' and Jay Z's 'Moonlight' video. Now the Chicago comedian is set to star alongside Kyrie Irving in his first leading role as well as his own TV show. Lil Rel is doing big things.

For those who don’t know, about six months ago I began the process of being considered as a living kidney donor for my friend Kevin. To be honest, I’m not sure how to feel.

It's never too early to look at what movies are getting released in theaters (and on streaming services) in 2018, right? Here's our picks for the pics worth the price of admission and all the hype attached.

Both Atlanta and Legion have highly-anticipated sophomore seasons hitting FX, while Netflix has already got us hype for the second season of Jessica Jones. And those are just the ones on the tip of our tongue; there are a grip of new shows set to hit the astounding number of channels and streaming services out there.

This has been a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad year. In damn near every sector of pop culture, politics, food... hell, even the holidays were full of some BS. That said, as we run down all of the "bests" from the last 12 months, it's only right that we take moment to look back at the people who made this year the absolute worst.

An annual reflection on lessons learned as I count down to my 41st birthday.

A show reaching its 100th episode can be a gift and a curse. On one hand, hitting this milestone is proof that the writers and actors have created characters that resonate with a mass audience. On the other hand, when you produce that much quantity over the course of several years it’s hard to consistently maintain the quality. The Walking Dead finds itself at this crossroad with its 100th episode, “Mercy,” which also serves as the premiere of the AMC hit’s pivotal eighth season.

Thankfully, Spider-Man: Homecoming sidesteps the backstory approach and thrusts the audience into a world that already knows Spidey exists. The end result is arguably one of the best movies in the MCU to date.

The biggest question at the end of any comic book movie these days is whether or not there will be a post-credit or mid-credit scene. When it comes to the MCU, though, it’s more of a question of how many end credit scenes there are. Consider this your ultimate cheat sheet to every MCU post-credit scenes so far.

With the release of his thirteenth solo album 4:44 upon us, it’s a fitting time to break down the language, life, and times of Jay Z, and give context to the people, places, and things in the God MC’s worldview. This is the Encyclopedia of Jay Z.

DC has a terrible track record when it comes to film adaptations. But given the recent box office and critical success of Wonder Woman the tide may be turning. Here is a definitive ranking of the best of the worst DC has to offer.

James Rosemond can’t escape his past. Try as he may, the sins of his former life still haunt him. Known for years as “Jimmy Henchmen,” Rosemond has earned a reputation as a fearsome figure in the music industry as well as the streets. The fact that he's currently serving six life sentences while waiting for a retrial on murder-for-hire allegations only adds to the mystique. But during the course of a two-hour phone conversation from prison, the longtime manager proves himself to be more benevolent than violent.
