Last night’s crazy storm left Ontario looking like a Michael Bay movie
Southern Ontario is the latest target of Mother Nature’s wrath, with 100km/h winds wreaking havoc throughout the area.
Well folks, Mother Nature is pissed.
First she pummeled Buffalo, N.Y. with around six feet of snow, leaving thousands trapped, stranded and cold. But last night, she came for southern Ontario. The whole area was hit with howling winds that left almost 87,000 people without power at its peak. There was even some flash flooding in Kitchener. Maybe it’s global warming, or maybe it’s Old Man Winter, but something definitely seems to have her forecasts in a knot. Here’s a look at the damage that was done by last night’s incredible winds:
We'll be getting a big mixtape from Shady Records before the new album arrives.
Eminem and his team at Shady have really stepped up their efforts in the roll-out of their compilation double-disc album, Shady XV. Rightly so, as the album celebrates 15 years of Shady Records. After giving us a cypher withSlaughterhouse, Yelawolf and Eminem, plus some short black and white cartoons, we'll be getting one more piece of content presumably before the album arrives on Monday: a mixtape.
During a podcast, DJ Whoo Kid and Paul Rosenberg confirmed the mixtape, revealing it would likely be 66-tracks. The project is being put together by Whoo Kid, who said, "You guys gave me 130 records. Physically, you can’t fit all of them on 80-minute CDs, so we had to do a double disc."
"Well there's like 66 [tracks]," Whoo Kid says of the mixtape, "3 hours [of music]."
"We figured since there's gunna be so many people that are saying why didn't this song make it, why didn't that song make it, we'll just do something to please everybody," Paul Rosenberg says of the mixtape endeavor. So if you're favorite Em record isn't on the Shady XV best of disc, you'll likely find it on this mixtape.
Are we all excited for this? Listen to the podcast below.

Kendrick Lamar Talks "I," Pharrell & Possible Collabo With Lil Wayne
Kendrick Lamar's interview spree isn't over just yet. Back in the West Coast after doing a run of interview in the East Coast, the rapper sat down with Power 106 to discuss "i" once more (if you haven't heard enough on that subject yet), as well as the power his lyrics hold, and doing something different (with the single "i"). He discusses getting Pharrell's co-sign for the record, and being unsure of the public's reception to it.
They also try to get some info on Kendrick's upcoming album, but he remains tight-lipped, as he has been doing. Nonetheless, before the interview's up, we do get a small tidbit of info from K. Dot. He may or may not have an appearance on Lil Wayne's Tha Carter V.
J. Cole surprised fans this weekend when he announced his new album,2014 Forest Hills Drive would be available as soon as December 9th. This wasn't the only unexpected news from the rapper, who explained that the title of the record is actually the address of his childhood home, which he recently bought back.
Cole had one more announcement to make, which he did today, inviting fans to the first listening party for his new album. Through a message on his site, the NC rapper opened a contest, stating that entering was the ONLY way one could be present at the event.
What's good? This is Cole. I just bought my old crib back. This is the house I started rapping in at 13 years old. 2014 Forest Hills Drive. As a kid, moving into this place changed my life in so many ways. Too many to type. Unfortunately, the house was foreclosed from my mother when I was 18 and I always dreamed of buying it back one day for closure. It's the first house I have ever owned.
My new album is called 2014 Forest Hills Drive. I'm not dropping any singles. I want you to hear the album straight through, front to back. The only way to hear the album before it's release is to enter for your chance to be invited to my house, 2014 Forest Hills Drive Fayetteville, North Carolina 28303. There are very limited spots. Good luck.
And please take your shoes off before you walk in my crib!!!
