Mt. Westmore—the supergroup comprised of Snoop Dogg, Too $hort, E-40 and Ice Cube—released its debut album, "Bad MFs," in June, but it was only available in the metaverse (meaning it was wayyyyyy too expensive).

Lauryn Hill released her one and only solo album, "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill," in 1998 to critical acclaim. During her headlining set at the ONE MusicFest in Atlanta on Saturday (October 8), The Fugees MC teased a tour in celebration of the iconic album's 25th anniversary. 

“25 years on," she said. "So we gonna be back with those songs the way you can recognize them, aye?”

At the 1999 Grammy Awards, Hill became the first Hip Hop act to win the coveted Album of the Year award.

So So Def founder Jermaine Dupri was onstage at the ONE MusicFest in Atlanta over the weekend when he made a big announcement. Speaking to the crowd, Dupri revealed a Verzuz battle between So So Def and Diddy's Bad Boy Records was imminent, although he didn't specify a date.
