Dr. King Album On The Way

No not the civil rights leader. The good Dr. Dre and T.I. aka King of The South have worked on some new material together. We don't have word yet as to whether this will be on T.I.'s upcoming album or the Detox. Check out a video preview of the two of them working on a new track.

Contraband Starring Mark Wahlberg

Check out Mark Wahlberg's new flick "Contraband" coming in January. Dude is out on the promo trail and here is the trailer for the movie.

A Bitter Pill

Maybach Music rapper Pill has been dealing with the rumor mill lately saying that he was dropped from the label. He has been on the road promoting and trying to prep the world for his first release. While at a radio station in the east, he was asked about new rumors that surfaced claiming that he'd been dropped from MMG. The artist said that was the first he's ever heard of that. He denied any problems and continued to rep Maybach Music. Now Pill is taking to twitter to vent his frustrations saying "No TV and no radio…[you] do the math. I bet u can name [your] favorite artist and [then] turn on the TV and see the video and hear it on the radio,” wrote the MC. “It’s not rocket science. Radio and TV [before] I had a deal, none after and u ask why Pill ain’t blew all the way up". Meanwhile, Rick Rozay has been silent and refuses to comment on the allegations. I don't know about you but sounds like a storms a brewing.

Beyonce Gave Birth?

The rumor mill is swirling that Jay and Beyonce have welcomed a baby girl into the world last night (12/29/11). It has been confirmed that B went to a local New York hospital and is in labor. However, sources close to the couple are squashing the rumors. They say there's no baby yet. As soon as Beyonce announced her baby bump on MTV, it set a twitter record of 8868 tweets per second. There is a website that claims to be a very reliable source for the birth of Baby Carter. The website name, www.isbabyoncebornyet.com has some great info for you "NO, NOT YET"! Gotta love that message. I checked to see who owned the web domain and I think it might be her publicist. The name was protected but it was someone out of L.A. so I believe it was her publicist. Stay tuned Baby Carter's debut is just around the corner.

Young Buck May Have A New Deal

Young Buck has been slightly absent from the charts but not from the music scene all together. He has been doing a lot of work with Drumma Boy releasing mixtapes. He has been struggling financially with the IRS problems and spending problems. He has been in a very publicized beef with 50 Cent about unpaid monies. 50 says Buck isn't owed any money and he needs to manage his money properly. Buck has been trying to survive with his clothing line and Cashville Records but the money still isn't enough. He is currently in negotiation to sign a new deal with Cash Money. However, he is still under contract with G-Unit records. In addition, the IRS woes has also halted him from signing a new contract with Cash Money because of his bankruptcy. If he comes into more money, he'll have to repay the creditors owed. Best of luck Buck.

Lil Kim's New EP

Check out my girl Lil Kim in a new 2012 Promo for her new 5 song E.P. She sent this out via twitter on Christmas saying I'm comin. She is still rolling solo without a record label. Kim was very successful with the release of Black Friday on her own. I think she is smart for taking her time and making people realize her worth. Kim is still dope and she is definitely a boss. Look for her new E.P. sometime this week. Salute to a real female boss!

Who Is DJ Ye!

First Swizz, then Ms. DJ A.K.47, now DJ Ye, DJ K. West or whatever you want to call him. Sources say ya man Yeezy decided to throw a Christmas party in London right after wrapping up The Throne Tour. Instead of a big named DJ holding it down, Ye took to the tables himself. Party goers say Yeezy played new music from his upcoming solo album as well as new music from the G.O.O.D. Music compilation.
Do think Kanye would make a good DJ? Or do you think he should stick to rapping and producing?

Diddy Relocates And Has Big Plans

Diddy has juggled so many hats over the last decade and on several occasions his number priority, music, has suffered. He has done a better job lately but he still continues to forge forward with new and different ideas. He says his wish is that you would wake up to his music, shower with his shampoo, get dressed in Sean John Clothing while wearing his Sean John fragrances. Then after work he hopes you'll head to your favorite watering hole for a drink of Ciroc. Is it just me or did you just realize how much Diddy is controlling our culture? I feel like a pawn. I can't be mad at Diddy's hustle though. He has also been the Executive producer for 6 different TV shows at the same time. He has now relocated to L.A. to continue to expand that part of his businesses as well as embark on several new movie roles. The man once known as Puffy can Puff, Puff, pass me some of that money and hustle. Big ups to another successful black man and hip hop music mogul.

Nelly, AMerican EXiled

Nelly just dropped a new joint and so did his Boo Ashanti. Somebody go out and buy their singles so Nelly can pay his bills. He apparently has been struggling financially for quite some time now. Back in October, Nelly was sued by AMEX (American Express) for not paying his credit card charges. AMEX claims Nelly charged $20,403.64 on his card and never paid. Nelly is allegedly refusing to pay the charges for some reason. It's hard to fathom Nelly being broke and not having money after his strong hold on radio during the early 2000 to about 2008. You were hard pressed to turn on the radio and not hear a Nelly song or a cameo. In his defense, he did lose his sister and assumed all financial responsibility for all her medical and burial expenses. There was a lot of wild and exotic spending that took place, maybe it was a case of retail therapy while he mourned his sisters death. It's not the first we've heard of Nelly's financial woes. He and his former producer had a war of words on twitter. His former producer outted some of Nelly's vices, Pills, steroids and Ashanti. Citing those as reasons he wasn't being paid and the same reason he couldn't make his house payment. Nelly needs to get focused and get back to business. Someone please help pay his credit card bill.

Chris Brown And K. Mac Strip

The WTF Video Of The Week

We paying for the crack epidemic of the 80's. Look what you've done to some of these fools. I can just imagine the look on the faces of some unsuspecting white people who was just trying to take the New York subway to Macy's in times Sq.

50 And Chaka Khan Working Together?

50 Cent was spotted on the VH-1 Divas red carpet with none other than the legendary Chaka Khan. (Tire Screech) Hold up, stop the press. 50 and Chaka Khan? Working together? What the hell? 50 has shown that he has had a great business sense about him. He has been in a lot of unlikely pairings. Recently he was with Bette Midler doing a kids event together. He and Chaka say they're working on some "Big Things". Does that mean she is singing back up to one of 50's new joints? Or does that mean she is dropping a new album on G-note Records? I just hope that they don't announce him hittin it. That would just mess up everything for me.

Hip Hop Po Po's Are Watchin!

In a recent sting operation, DC undercover agents set up a fictitious record label to infiltrate the streets and the drug trafficking game. The established a record label Manic Enterprises and even had a fake rap artist named Richie Valdez. The agents posed as shady businessmen and garnered the respect of some real heavyweights real quickly. It wasn't long before agents say they were getting people selling them guns, ammunition and drugs. Agents were even surprised how quickly they were able to get their hands on this kind of product. The operation started last November. During that time 70 were arrested; 161 weapons, a rocket launcher, AR-15 assault rifles, silencers, and $7.2 million in drugs were confiscated. Can't blame the police, gotta blame the idiots involved. The Feds even have some info on a murder that took place in El Salvador.

Boyz II Men Are Back W/Uncle Charlie

Check out this dope new video from Boyz II Men featuring Charlie Wilson of The Gap Band. This record debuted on 106th & Park and has been receiving a lot of well deserved respect. This collaboration wasn't one many would've expected but it is blazin. Check the new video.

Rehab? She's Just A Kidd!

In a very unfortunate situation, NBA Championship Point Guard Jason Kidd's 17 year old daughter, Cheyenne Kidd< is about to re-enter a drug rehab. The beautiful young 17 old Kidd has been struggling with drugs. A lot of stars do not realize that their lifestyles create added pressure and stress on these already struggling teenagers. When you compound these struggling times with money, fame and drug accessibility, that spells disaster. We've seen it time and time again. Let's also not forget that Kidd and his wife divorced and I'm sure that was an added issue. Oh and her mother made things worse by starring in Basketball Wives instead of focusing on mending a damaged family. Take a look at young america and realize our contributions to their struggles.

New Music By Nelly ft. Jermaine Dupri - Where They Do That At

C'mon Son! WTF?!?!

Rapper Freddie Gibbs dodged a bullet the other day, facetiously speaking. The 2010 Source Magazine Freshman has recently signed to Young Jeezy's CTE imprint label. He has been on the trail promoting his mixtapes and upcoming release on C.T.E. While traveling Freddie decided to stash a bag of weed in his luggage that he checked. Apparently, he didn't realize that they still scan and go through your luggage. The TSA agents did him a big favor by not turning him. Instead they left him a note on the weed that said "C'mon Son, Lol" and actually let him keep it. You must not be that bright to try to fly with any narcotics but the fool took to twitter to out himself. C'MON SON!!!

Yung Joc's Studio Gets Robbed

Sunday morning around 5:30a, two caretakers of Yung Joc's recording studio were approached by two men who were hiding in a bush. The two men forced the caretakers inside and tied them up with duct tape and zip ties. The men began to rob the steal about $50,000 worth of recording gear and two guns. The two men got away and the studio caretakers were able to free themselves and run a mile to the nearest neighbor for help. Investigators say they have some good fingerprints from the scene.

Bricksquad Member Gunned Down

Last Friday Night, new signee to the Bricksquad Family Slim Dunkin was murdered outside of an Atlanta recording studio. He was there for the filming of a new video for Gucci Mane and V-Nasty called "Push Ups". Slim Dunkin was out in front of the studio when he became involved in an arguement with a man. The guy pulled out a gun and shot Slim in the chest. There were roughly 20 people around but all have a different account of what took place. Waka Flocka and Dunkin were childhood friends. Waka took to twitter to release his feelings saying "Wish it was me" and "My F'n right hand is gone". No matter the reason, it's still another senseless killing. Rest in peace Slim.

Reality Check For Olivia

I admit, I am a fan of Love and Hip Hop. I am really a big fan of Olivia's and I feel that this is a time for her to shine as a solo artist. She has been without a deal for many years. This recent project is strictly funded by her and her manager Rich Dollaz. Here is an excerpt of a meeting rich set up for Olivia with Wayne Williams of Sony Records. Check it out!

New Ciroc Ad

Gotta give Diddy credit. The dude never stops hustling. Check out his new Ciroc ad that's not aimed at hip hop at all. Very smart business when think globally.

Swizz Beatz Needs A Swiss Bank Acct

The Ruff Riders beat maker has been very busy lately. He has gone from just a beat making producer/rapper to big businessman. He has signed some great endorsement deals that include Reebok and several others brand names. His biggest and most recent deal is as the VP of Creative Design for the British car company Lotus. How in the hell is he getting deals like this? He and Will.I.AM both have creative Design positions for big companies. What kind of skills does Swizzy have to land a gig like this? I ain't hatin, I'm just sayin! Can a brotha get a job and a company car? This event launched a new car by Swizz called The Lotus Bespoke. In addition there was an album launch and in attendance was Mrs. Beatz (Alicia Keys), Alec Baldwin, and Russell Simmons to name a few. The night was capped off with a live performance of the newly released T.I. Big ups to my man Kaseem Dean a.k.a. Swizz "Businessman" Beatz.
