Facebook Acquires Instagram

Instagram has become an immensely popular platform for young people. It's also been a bright spot for Facebook amid a tumultuous time for that platform, which is grappling with fake news, foreign election meddling and privacy issues. It's unclear what Instagram's future will look like without the original duo at the helm.

Instagram founders Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger are out. Now the question is what happens to the business they started, and what that will mean for its owner, Facebook.

"One of the key hallmarks of Instagram has been its independence and uniqueness from Facebook. The founders closely guarded that," said Debra Aho Williamson, principal analyst at eMarketer.

Facebook Video Views Grows

Bloomberg reported that Systrom and Krieger are departing because of tensions with CEO Mark Zuckerberg over the direction of Instagram. According to Bloomberg's sources, Instagram could become more integrated with Facebook now that the co-founders are leaving.

With Systrom and Krieger gone, Williamson says it could be more challenging for Instagram to maintain that independence, especially if Zuckerberg installs his own executives to lead Instagram now.

Instagram Releases New Video Photo Sharing Service

That doesn't have to be a bad thing, even for users who prefer Instagram to Facebook. There are some popular features on Facebook that Instagram may be able to adapt. In fact, it's already done this by adding tools like messaging, the ability to mute users and indications showing whether someone is online. It also allows users to post Instagram photos to Facebook, and prompts users to add their Facebook friends on Instagram.

Blocchain Ent Presents "Money Gang" Featuring | @MRStackiin @ScopeXXL @MacTrivee @BlocChain_Ent

Just in the time for the summer, rising artist KT Foreign drops off the official visuals for his new banger "Money Gang" featuring TJD and Shawn Scope. Recently known for his work with SOBxRBE and Mike Sherm, KT Foreign is keeping his foot on the gas with a slew of new music ready to release. A crushing bassline leads the way for each rapper to step up and talk their shit. Flexing on the broke boys, KT leads the break on "Money Gang" effortlessly flexing in his verse before passing the laid back chorus off to Shawn Scope. TJD gets beautifully ignorant on the beat for the second verse while tying the whole track together. Laid back chords mixed with nasty trap drums and a filthy bassline provide the canvas for these artists to hit a lick on the track. With visuals filmed and edited by Swagginson, KT Foreign, Shawn Scope, and TJD show they're ready to run up in the industry and clean house. 

Watch the official visuals for "Money Gang" and also read more about the Blocchain Entertainment label below.

Which Female Superstar Has the Best Beach Body?

 

Now that summer is out and the winter holidays are here, let's take time to reflect on all the toned-up beach bodies this year we all encountered. Celebrities put their best bikinis — and boardshorts — forward this summer as they sunned, swam and swanned around hot spots from South Beach to St. Barts.

But while celebs such as J.Lo and Halle Berry basked in beach glory, others committed fashion crimes in paradise like Mariah Carey and so on. Between their envy-inducing abs and super-toned stems, these celebrities are bringing the heat.

How To Make Money as An Artist

 

Here are some tips on how to make money as an artist:

Making money as an artist can be a challenge. You need to find ways to make a name for yourself and stand out from the competition. In this blog post, we will explore some tips from the pros on how to make money as an artist. We will discuss how to use Spotify, Instagram, and other platforms to make a name for yourself and sell your music. Let’s get started!

[Video] Elektrohorse 'Po Folk X-Mas'

Produced by Elektrohorse from Chicago/California, “ Po Folk X-MAS”, is a heavy hearted Christmas song that rings true for many. Highlighting a not so glamorous Christmas.

Everywhere you look you see breathtaking Christmas lights, beautiful decorated reefs and joyous shoppers filled with holiday cheer. The air smells of freshly baked cookies and is filled with sounds of jingles, bells and familiar toons. With all this holiday bliss, it can be easy to forget that Santa won’t be making a stop down everyone’s chimney.

Hundreds of children around the world will be wondering why Santa forgot them?

Country music Dj Elektrohorse has a new holiday jam “Po Folk Xmas”. This is the untold story that actually shows you how messed up Santa truly is to less fortunate people. He is also assisted by hick hop artist Apalachee Don from Georgia, Terell Skreetzz from Sc and Babe Animal from Ga. Elektrohorse is signed to Create music, the same label as Marshmello.

Apalachee Don, from Monroe Georgia, has the first verse. Pointing all four fingers at Mr. Clause, blaming him for a shitty Christmas with the lyrics, “Mr. Ho Ho Ho trying to stop my fun”.

Young Thug Changes Album Title

I still lost all respect for +Young Thugga only due to the fact of whats going on with +Birdman and +Lil Wayne. Young Thug has renamed his upcoming album to the Barter 6. In addition to switching the title, Thugga took to Instagram to announce that his first show, following the album’s release, will be in Hollygrove, Louisiana.

Young Thug is referring to the same Hollygrove neighborhood in New Orleans, Lil Wayne and Mack Maine grew up in. “YSL Carter 6 coming out Friday. First show, New Orleans, Hollygrove fuck nigga, meet me there, better yet beat me there,” Thug says in a new Instagram video, as two men stand behind him waving firearms. Just a few days later, Thug uploaded a video to Instagram that features various clips of him performing while a woman narrates what seems to be shots at Wayne and his imprint.

The “New Atlanta” rapper has been using his Instagram account to fuel his feud with Lil Wayne.After Wayne urged fans to “stop listening to songs of niggas who pose naked on their motherfucking album covers,” Thug responded by saying, “I understand that Lil Wayne is frustrated about his career and I feel him on that, but this is my idol. I would never in my life swap words with him or beef with him about nothing. This is a person that I look up to. Ha Ha.”

Joe Green & Money Mu "Loaded" Single

Coalition Djs known to push the hottest records and present some of today's most notable artists, have done it again. This time around they teamed up Joe Green and Money Mu, both of which are known to stay on the grind and keep the music coming. The duo hopped on a Cassius Jay track and proved once again why their names are always mentioned among hip hop and rap enthusiasts. 

Fetty Wap Robbed

As news of the shooting filters in, a man known as Fuzz, CEO of Muscle Team Ent, posted a photo on his Instagram of a man covering his face with what appears to be Fetty Wap's "1738" chain. In the bio of Fuzz's Instagram there is a link to his song which features former Remy Boy P-Dice. P-Dice is currently suing Fetty Wap for $7 million over unpaid royalties.

The Instagram caption states:

"Just to set the record straight. I personally didn't take @fettywap1738 chain. I'm not responsible for no one else action but my own. I don't have a personal problem Fetty Wap. He just a good kid in the way. How he got his chain taken I don't know and I don't care. That's none of my business. Did I take a picture with it? Yes. The whole down the hill got a picture with it on. Now enjoy the rest of y'all night. 💪🏿 I will love to take the credit for it but unfortunately, my Instagram is no liar."
