Teaming up with some of the biggest names in Hip-Hop, Busta's new album, Block Busta, is not only executive produced by himself but also Swizz Beatz, Pharrell, and Timbaland. "I'm super grateful to each and every one of those gentlemen. My brothers," he said "they been a part of my legacy and my career growth... I'm super grateful, super thankful that my brothers decided to make some time and just really be a part of this body of work." Busta declared that this project is going to "shift the culture." As it should, "that's what it's about, especially during Hip-Hop 50. I mean in general we supposed to do that just continue to add in a significant way to the culture and a productive way." The 51-year-old rapper reflected on being one along with many OGs in the game of Hip-Hop, "as incredible as a run that we've all had learning as we were going along, we the senseis of this s***," he said before asking "you think stopping anytime soon makes sense?"

Back with another installment of Hip-Hop Made to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the birth of Hip-Hop, Ciara dropped by Audacy's V-103 in Atlanta to reveal her favorite rap artists of all time and songs that transcend time for her. Sporting a Tupac t-shirt, the "Goodies" singer said "he's clearly my favorite rap artist of all time," after mentioning one of her favorite rap songs is "So Many Tears," reminiscing on how her and her dad used to ride and sing along to the 1998 record. "I think Tupac, his music marks a lot special memories for me, you know they say music marks time, so I would definitely say Tupac in one of those guys," she added. Aside from Tupac, she revealed that she is also a huge Busta Rhymes fan, "I think there's no one like Busta, there hasn't been anyone like him" she shared before busting out the lyrics to "Woo Hah!! Got You All in Check." Check out so much more from Ciara above.
