    Fame Under Fire
    BBC Sounds

    Following on from Diddy on Trial, BBC Sounds brings you Fame Under Fire.

    Celebrities, athletes, politicians, influencers and even royalty can all land in the firing line.

    Why does it matter? Because we invest in them.

    We give them space in our homes, our budgets, our feeds, and sometimes, our hearts. We put them on pedestals. So when they fall, we want the truth. But in an age of AI-generated “evidence”, misinformation, and unqualified newsfluencers, separating fact from fiction is a full-time job. Hot on the heels of covering the Diddy trial, Anoushka Mutanda-Dougherty is up for the challenge. Each week on Fame Under Fire, she’ll take a detailed look at the topics dominating the headlines. With the help of expert guests, she’ll myth bust, debunk, pre-bunk, fact check and get to the truth behind the timeline. Got questions? We’ve got answers. Message us at 0330 123 555 1.

    Kendrick Lamar - GNX
    Inception Point Ai
    Kendrick Lamar sent shockwaves through the music world on November 22, 2024, with the surprise release of his sixth studio album, GNX. This highly anticipated 12-track project comes two years after the release of his critically acclaimed Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers and marks his first major release as an independent artist following his departure from Top Dawg Entertainment. Known for his intricate lyricism, poignant social commentary, and dynamic soundscapes, Lamar once again proves why he is regarded as one of the most compelling voices in contemporary hip-hop. With GNX, he crafts a deeply personal and electrifying work that dives into themes of redemption, rivalry, identity, and the complexities of fame. The title GNX has sparked widespread speculation among fans and critics. Many believe it is an abbreviation for “Genesis,” signaling a new beginning in Lamar’s career, as well as themes of transformation and renewal that resonate throughout the album. Others interpret the title as a reference to “gangster,” reflecting Kendrick’s reflections on street culture, morality, and his ongoing quest for self-definition. Whatever the title’s origins, the music speaks for itself: GNX blends Lamar’s signature introspection with unrelenting energy, creating a work that feels both intimate and grand. Opening with the track “Genesis Flow,” Lamar immediately sets the tone for the album, weaving a narrative that reflects on his journey from Compton to international superstardom. The song’s production, a haunting mix of strings and bass-heavy beats, underscores the tension between his humble beginnings and the high stakes of life at the top. From there, the album delves into a wide range of themes, with standout tracks addressing everything from personal growth to industry rivalries. A major highlight of the album is “Heart Pt. 6,” a continuation of Lamar’s iconic "Heart" series. Known for their raw vulnerability and unfiltered commentary, each installment has provided insight into Lamar’s personal struggles and triumphs. In this latest entry, he confronts his ongoing rivalry with Drake, delivering sharp, introspective lyrics that dissect the tensions between competition and mutual respect. The song has already sparked widespread debate, with listeners analyzing every line for hidden meanings and references to past feuds. By addressing such a contentious relationship head-on, Lamar reaffirms his status as a fearless artist unafraid to wade into the complexities of human relationships. The collaboration on GNX further elevates its appeal. Lamar reunites with SZA for the sultry and introspective track “Last Call,” where their chemistry shines as they explore themes of vulnerability and resilience. Kamasi Washington’s contributions on “Jazzman’s Blues” infuse the album with lush instrumentation, blending Lamar’s spoken-word delivery with Washington’s soaring saxophone melodies. These collaborations not only showcase Lamar’s ability to bring out the best in his peers but also reflect his commitment to pushing musical boundaries. The album’s production is a masterclass in sonic diversity, with tracks that range from minimalist beats to orchestral compositions. Songs like “Squabble Up” feature aggressive rhythms that echo Lamar’s earlier works, while tracks like “Underdog’s Prayer” take a more contemplative approach, using stripped-down instrumentation to highlight his lyrical prowess. The seamless transitions between moods and genres reflect Lamar’s evolution as an artist and his ability to remain at the forefront of hip-hop innovation. Accompanying the album’s release is a visually stunning music video for “Squabble Up,” directed by Calmatic. The video is packed with symbolic imagery that complements the album’s themes. Lamar is seen reading a fictional book titled How to Be More Like Kendrick for Dummies, a tongue-in-cheek nod to his influence as an artist. Another striking moment features Lamar holding a sign that reads “JESUS SAVES GANGSTERS TOO!” These visuals underscore the album’s exploration of identity, redemption, and spirituality, adding depth to the auditory experience. Critics have lauded GNX as one of Lamar’s most direct and urgent projects to date. Many have noted the album’s balance between the personal and the universal, with Lamar offering introspective meditations while addressing broader societal issues. Tracks like “War Stories” delve into the impact of systemic oppression, while “New Testament Flow” grapples with morality and legacy. These songs highlight Lamar’s ability to weave complex narratives that resonate across audiences. For fans, GNX has been a cause for celebration. The album’s surprise release generated instant buzz, with social media platforms flooded with reactions, analyses, and praise. Streaming numbers skyrocketed within hours, solidifying Lamar’s dominance in the digital age. The decision to drop the album unannounced mirrors strategies Lamar has employed in the past, creating a sense of immediacy and excitement around his work. However, GNX feels different in its approach, less about spectacle and more about delivering a clear artistic statement. The release of GNX also signifies a pivotal moment in Lamar’s career as an independent artist. Having parted ways with Top Dawg Entertainment, the label that helped catapult him to fame, Lamar appears determined to chart his own path. This autonomy is evident in the album’s fearless exploration of themes and its refusal to conform to commercial expectations. GNX feels like an artist reclaiming his narrative, free to experiment and speak without constraints. Despite its critical acclaim, the album has not been without its controversies. The track “Heart Pt. 6,” in particular, has reignited discussions about Lamar’s rivalry with Drake, with fans of both artists debating the merits and implications of their feud. While some view the track as a bold confrontation, others see it as a reflection of the competitive pressures inherent in the music industry. Regardless of interpretation, the song has ensured that GNX remains a topic of conversation well beyond its release. As 2024 draws to a close, GNX stands as a testament to Kendrick Lamar’s enduring relevance and artistic vision. In a year filled with high-profile releases, the album manages to carve out its own space, reminding listeners of Lamar’s unparalleled ability to combine technical skill with emotional depth. Whether reflecting on his personal journey, addressing societal injustices, or experimenting with new sounds, Lamar continues to push the boundaries of what hip-hop can achieve. The legacy of GNX will likely be defined not only by its artistic achievements but also by its cultural impact. Lamar’s decision to release the album independently, paired with its bold thematic content, sets a precedent for creative freedom in an industry often driven by commercial considerations. As fans and critics continue to unpack its layers, GNX reaffirms Kendrick Lamar’s position as a leader in the world of music and a voice that challenges, inspires, and resonates. GNX is more than just an album; it is a declaration of independence, a reflection on identity, and a showcase of artistic excellence. Through its vivid storytelling, innovative production, and fearless exploration of difficult topics, Kendrick Lamar has once again proven why he remains at the forefront of contemporary culture. In a career defined by evolution and reinvention, GNX marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter.

    Drake VS. Kendrick Lamar- Whats The Beef
    Inception Point Ai
    Feuds are as old as hip-hop itself, and often, they fuel creativity and public personas. One of the most captivating rivalries of recent years has been between two rap titans: Drake and Kendrick Lamar. Their lyrical sparring and subliminal jabs have left fans eagerly analyzing their every word, waiting for the next salvo in this ongoing battle. The Rise of Two Titans Drake's Journey to the Top Drake, born Aubrey Drake Graham, began his journey in the entertainment industry as an actor on the Canadian teen drama series Degrassi: The Next Generation. His transition from actor to rapper started with the release of his mixtape Room for Improvement (2006), followed by Comeback Season (2007), which showcased his unique blend of singing and rapping. Drake's breakthrough came with the release of his third mixtape So Far Gone in 2009, featuring hits like "Best I Ever Had" and "Successful." The mixtape's success earned him a deal with Lil Wayne's Young Money Entertainment. His debut studio album Thank Me Later (2010) topped the Billboard 200 chart and solidified his place in the music industry. Over the next decade, Drake became synonymous with chart-topping hits like "God's Plan," "Hotline Bling," and "In My Feelings." His blend of introspective lyrics, catchy melodies, and versatile music style resonated with a global audience. Albums like Take Care (2011), Nothing Was the Same (2013), and Views (2016) showcased his growth as an artist, leading to numerous awards, including four Grammy Awards. Kendrick Lamar: Compton’s Poet Laureate Meanwhile, Kendrick Lamar Duckworth grew up in Compton, California, where he was inspired by the legacy of West Coast hip-hop legends like Tupac Shakur and Dr. Dre. His first mixtape, Youngest Head Nigga in Charge (2003), released under the moniker K-Dot, hinted at his lyrical prowess. Kendrick's rise to prominence began with his acclaimed mixtape Overly Dedicated (2010) and was further solidified with his independent album Section.80 (2011). But it was his major-label debut, good kid, m.A.A.d city (2012), that cemented his place as one of the greatest lyricists of his generation. The album's storytelling, chronicling his teenage years in Compton, earned widespread critical acclaim. To Pimp a Butterfly (2015) elevated Kendrick to new heights, with its fusion of hip-hop, jazz, and funk, and its incisive exploration of race, politics, and identity. Songs like "Alright" became anthems for the Black Lives Matter movement. His follow-up album DAMN. (2017) won the Pulitzer Prize for Music, making Kendrick the first non-classical or jazz artist to receive the honor. Flashpoint: Origins of the Feud The seeds of the Drake-Kendrick rivalry were sown with subtle lyrical jabs that fans eagerly dissected. The tension became more apparent after Kendrick Lamar’s verse on Big Sean's track "Control" (2013), where he called out several rappers, including Drake, and proclaimed himself "the king of New York." Drake responded with comments dismissing Kendrick's claims, saying he was unaffected by them. This exchange set the tone for future subliminal shots, like Kendrick's "The Heart Part 4" (2017), where he implied Drake wasn't writing his lyrics, and Drake’s "Duppy Freestyle" (2018), which many interpreted as targeting Kendrick. Control Verse: The Turning Point Big Sean's track "Control" (2013), which featured Kendrick Lamar and Jay Electronica, was the turning point that brought the simmering tension between Drake and Kendrick to the forefront. Kendrick's verse took aim at several notable rappers, including Drake, J. Cole, and Big Sean himself. Some lines specifically targeting Drake included: "I'm usually homeboys with the same niggas I'm rhymin' with
    But this is hip-hop and them niggas should know what time it is." While the verse didn't directly attack Drake, the competitive nature and self-proclaimed "king of New York" label stirred the pot. Drake's response in an interview with Billboard magazine was dismissive, stating, "I know good and well that Kendrick's not murdering me." Subliminal Jabs and Speculative Responses Over the next few years, both Drake and Kendrick continued their streak of chart-topping hits while taking subliminal jabs at each other: Kendrick's "The Heart Part 4" (2017): "Tables turn, lesson learned, my best look / You jumped sides on me, now you 'bout to meet Westbrook." Interpreted as a shot at Drake's infamous beef with Meek Mill and his switching affiliations between Young Money and OVO. Drake's "Duppy Freestyle" (2018): Although primarily aimed at Pusha T, many lines were seen as indirect shots at Kendrick. "I got a lot of friends within the rap game, but you ain't that, fam." 2015 BET Cypher and TDE vs. OVO The 2015 BET Cypher further fueled the rivalry, with TDE and OVO appearing in separate ciphers. Kendrick Lamar's cypher included lines perceived as jabs at Drake's "started from the bottom" narrative: "Nothing's been the same since they dropped 'Control'
    And tucked a sensitive rapper back in his pajama clothes." The competitive energy between TDE and OVO was palpable, and fans began analyzing each lyric and social media post for hints of the ongoing rivalry. Impact on Their Music and Careers The rivalry between Drake and Kendrick Lamar didn't just remain in the realm of subliminal jabs; it had a tangible impact on their music and careers. Both artists pushed their creative boundaries, often releasing their best work during this period. Drake's If You're Reading This It's Too Late (2015): Released as a surprise mixtape, it contained several tracks that fans interpreted as aimed at Kendrick. "Energy" and "6 God" reflected a more aggressive tone in Drake's music. Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly (2015): Songs like "King Kunta" and "The Blacker the Berry" addressed identity and power, with some lines hinting at the competitive rap landscape. The album's experimentation with jazz and funk showcased Kendrick's willingness to evolve artistically. Drake's Views (2016): Focused more on dancehall and pop sounds, moving away from the aggressive style of If You're Reading This It's Too Late. "Hype" and "Weston Road Flows" retained some competitive energy. Kendrick Lamar's DAMN. (2017): Tracks like "DNA." and "HUMBLE." were seen as power statements, reinforcing Kendrick's dominance. The album's Pulitzer Prize win cemented his place as a top-tier lyricist. 2018: "Sicko Mode" Collaboration and Pusha T Beef Despite the rivalry, Drake and Kendrick appeared on the same song in 2018. Travis Scott's "Sicko Mode" featured both artists, albeit in different sections, leaving many fans wondering if they had buried the hatchet. However, the feud with Pusha T reignited tensions. Drake vs. Pusha T Drake's long-standing beef with Pusha T reached new heights in 2018 when Pusha released "The Story of Adidon," exposing Drake's secret son. While Kendrick Lamar didn't directly involve himself, his collaboration with Pusha T on "Nosetalgia" (2013) and continued partnership with Kanye West hinted at implicit support. 2024: The Feud Reignites In May 2024, the rivalry reached new heights when Kendrick released a scathing diss track titled "Euphoria," aimed directly at Drake. The song is packed with personal attacks, questioning Drake's authenticity, work ethic, and even his use of the n-word. Kendrick throws shade at Drake's mob boss persona, questions the legitimacy of his physique, and challenges the quality of his music. Lines like, "You ain’t even write your own book, so what you preachin' for?" and "Fake abs and fake flows, who are you reachin' for?" left no doubt that Kendrick was coming for Drake's crown. Current Situation (May 2024) The release of "Euphoria" has reignited the rap world, with all eyes on Drake to see how he will respond. Speculation is rife that this could escalate the feud further, with Drake rumored to be preparing a diss track of his own. Public and Industry Reaction Fans and fellow artists have taken sides, dissecting the lyrics for hidden meanings. Some view Kendrick's track as a masterful takedown, while others await Drake's response. Industry insiders are watching closely, as a response from Drake could reshape the rap landscape. Social Commentary Embedded in "Euphoria" The social commentary embedded in "Euphoria" regarding cultural appropriation and racial identity adds another layer to the conflict. Kendrick raises questions about authenticity, particularly with Drake's use of the n-word and perceived cultural appropriation. Whatever happens next will likely only serve to pad the bank accounts of all involved. Thanks for listening- Remember to like and Share wherever you get your podcasts.

    Tyla - Audio Biography
    Quiet.Please
    Tyla Laura Seethal, known mononymously as Tyla, is a rising star in the music industry, captivating audiences with her unique blend of pop, R&B, and African influences. Born on 30 January 2002 in Johannesburg, South Africa, Tyla has quickly become a global sensation, breaking records and earning prestigious awards at a young age.
    Early Life and Family Background Tyla grew up in a diverse family, with roots spanning across Zulu, Irish, Indian, and Mauritian ancestry. Her parents, Sharleen and Sherwin Seethal, recognized and nurtured her passion for music from an early age. As a member of the Coloured community in South Africa, Tyla's upbringing was shaped by a rich tapestry of cultures and experiences, which would later influence her music and artistic vision.
    During her time at Edenglen High School, Tyla's talent and dedication shone through. She served as the head of culture in her final year, showcasing her leadership skills and commitment to the arts. Alongside her academic pursuits, Tyla began sharing her original songs and covers on Instagram, catching the attention of industry professionals and laying the foundation for her future success.
    Discovery and Early Career Tyla's journey to stardom began when she was discovered by her first manager, Garth von Glehn, who recognized her raw talent and potential. Von Glehn organized recording sessions for Tyla, which she would attend every weekend during her final year of high school, balancing her passion for music with her academic responsibilities.
    After matriculating in 2019, Tyla released her debut single, "Getting Late," featuring production from Kooldrink. The song quickly gained national recognition, showcasing Tyla's unique sound and captivating vocals. Despite the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, Tyla and her manager persevered, filming the accompanying music video intermittently throughout the lockdowns. Released in January 2021, the video amassed millions of views on YouTube and earned Tyla a nomination for Music Video of the Year at the 28th South African Music Awards in 2022.
    Pursuing Her Dreams Initially, Tyla had been studying towards a degree in mining engineering. However, her passion for music was undeniable, and with the support of her parents, she made the difficult decision to take a year off from university to focus on her burgeoning music career. This leap of faith paid off when Tyla signed a recording contract with Epic Records through a joint venture with Fax Records in the United States in May 2021.
    Tyla continued to release singles, including "Overdue" in October 2021 and "To Last" in November 2022, further establishing her presence in the music industry and garnering a growing fanbase.
    International Breakthrough with "Water" Tyla's international breakthrough came in 2023 with the release of her single "Been Thinking." The song earned Tyla her first chart placements on the Billboard Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay and Rhythmic Airplay charts, showcasing her ability to create infectious, club-ready anthems that resonated with audiences worldwide. Critics praised the track, with Heven Haile of Pitchfork comparing it to the seductive pop-R&B hits of mid-2000s Ciara and Rihanna.
    Tyla's rising star caught the attention of established artists, leading to her joining Chris Brown as the opening act for his Under the Influence Tour. This opportunity provided Tyla with invaluable exposure and allowed her to connect with audiences on a global scale.
    In May 2023, Tyla released the single "Girl Next Door," featuring Nigerian singer Ayra Starr, further demonstrating her ability to collaborate with international artists and merge different musical styles seamlessly. However, it was the release of "Water" in July 2023 that truly propelled Tyla to international stardom.
    "Water" quickly went viral on the social media platform TikTok, spawning a dance challenge that took the world by storm. The song's success translated to the charts, reaching the top 10 in numerous countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia. Tyla's achievement was particularly significant in her home country, as she became the youngest-ever South African and the first South African soloist in 55 years to enter the US Billboard Hot 100, following Hugh Masekela's "Grazing in the Grass" in 1968.
    Tyla's mesmerizing live performances of "Water" on international television shows, such as The Bianca Show in Sweden and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in the United States, further cemented her status as a global sensation. The accompanying music video, released in October 2023, garnered millions of views within days, a testament to Tyla's growing popularity and the song's universal appeal.
    Collaborations and Accolades As Tyla's fame continued to rise, she attracted the attention of established artists eager to collaborate with the young sensation. In October 2023, she was featured on a remix version of Summer Walker's "Girls Need Love," as part of Walker's Girls Mix extended play.
