      Dear Summer...

      Wuddduupp friends?! Hope you guys are semester ready because it is literally right around the corner. Seriously. We here at The RapUp have been tirelessly preparing a full show for you next week but in the mean time just check out what we did last week!

      We kicked things off with a few requests and some new tunes from Mr. Childish Gambino. He dropped a little one off called ‘Chandler Road’. It sounds like a ‘Because The Internet’ leftover but he seems to be rapping with a little more conviction. Is a project on the way? Perhaps. Listen below.

      In other news, Breezy is guilty, Jeezy is outta jail, Weezy is killing on tour and Iggy is keeping it sleazy. Easy.

      Next up we addressed a serious issue that probably concerns a ton of you guys. Have you ever had a birthday party, bat mitzvah, or maybe even a shin dig with friends and just wondered how much it would cost for your favorite rapper to perform? Well, I have. Now all those questions are answered. We found a list of how much it costs to book the biggest names in rap. Check the full list here and a few notables below.

      Action Bronson: $20,000

      Danny Brown: $20,000

      Chance The Rapper: $35,000

      Soulja Boy: $50,000

      Big Sean: $75,000

      ASAP Rocky: $120,000

      Kendrick Lamar: $125,000

      Macklemore: $700,000

      Kanye West: $500,000

      Jay-Z: Goodluck

       

      Well, that is it from us this week. Make sure to tune in this week for our summer recap! Let us know what y’all thought was the song of the summer. we know ours…

      Music means different things for different people. Music means different things for different people. For many of us, music is a way to escape; we get lost in the melody and vibe with the beat. Sometimes the words speak to us. If you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or alone, plug in your headphones and get lost in the music. Along with music, there are many different coping methods of self care and dealing with anxiety. Mental health is just as important as physical health; just because we cannot see it does not mean it isn’t there. Check in with those you know, the strong ones or the ones that appear happy also get anxious. Speak kindly to each other and to yourself. It’s okay to share, cry and be vulnerable. Stay Golden 💛💜
