Who would have thought that ideas, releases, frustrations, accomplishments could be so captivating in under 140 characters? Since it’s debut a decade ago, Twitter redefined communication with the masses. There isn’t an artist, mover and shaker without one and for good reason. Careers can launch and be put to a halt through the social network. Post the right thing and gain the right followers or move people the wrong way with a Tweet and fade into relative obscurity. Those unconcerned with the Twitterverse can check here through our weekly feature “Tweets Is Watching.” We’ve filtered the top tweets and consolidated all the week’s events into one convenient feed so you don’t have to.
This week, LL Cool J and Chrissy Teigen exchange Secret Santa gifts, Ab-Soul speaks on love, and Kehlani brings out Lil Uzi Vert in Oakland.

— 9th Wonder (@9thwonder) December 17, 2016
RIGHT. Trying to keep up with what's out…PLUS trying to go back and study 30 plus years of artists? Man. NO. https://t.co/MdAL0wVUCM
— 9th Wonder (@9thwonder) December 17, 2016
Times are different. Period. Gotta try to at least see both side of the coin when it comes to the discovery of new music.
— 9th Wonder (@9thwonder) December 17, 2016
The freshmen class is 10 years running I think?…that's easily 100 plus rappers, plus the 500 that grind that don't make it..it's a lot.
