(AllHipHop Rumors) Uncle Luke has never been one to bite his tongue!
Uncle Luke recently took to Instagram to set the record straight about who really runs Miami!
Uncle Luke felt the need to inform Real Housewives of Atlanta star Peter Thomas that he and DJ Khaled don’t run Miami.
Luke let it be known that he in fact was the one who brought Hip Hop to south Florida after Peter claimed that he brought blackness to South Beach with his ‘How Can I Be Down’ conference.
Peter also says he brought Puff, Russell Simmons and more down to Miami Beach.
“Luke came after me, I was there first,” said Peter.
Peter claimed that he could take Miami back at anytime, and if folks don’t believe him, they should ask DJ Khaled.
Apparently Uncle Luke is not here for all of the praise that DJ Khaled has been getting, and he had to fact check Peter’s claims.
“So Mr. Thomas you called DJ Khaled, as if DJ Khaled run some sh-t down here. DJ Khaled is another settler. He came from New Orleans. He went to Orlando. He couldn’t get on as a DJ in Orlando then he came down here to Miami. He got on at Mix 96 the underground radio station. I heard him on the radio and then I brought it to light to the mainstream on 99 Jamz on my mix show. My brother this guy don’t run sh-t down here neither, he just scream Miami out. He needs to be screaming out New Orleans,” said Uncle Luke.
Uncle Luke told Peter that he needed to actually be shouting out legendary Miami DJs when he shouts out DJs, and he goes on to say Peter wouldn’t know them because he also is a “settler.”
What are your thoughts? Is Luke just stating facts!?

Ugly God recently shared on Instagram that he wants to produce a track for Nas! He uploaded a snippet of a track to his Instagram with a caption that said,
“Somebody tell @nas I wanna produce a track for him. By the way the chords weren’t a sample, they were keys played and bounced down to loop. Everything authentic,” posted Ugly God.
Ugly God isn’t exactly a top tier rapper, so some folks definitely went in. Some came to his defense claiming the beat sounded nice and crediting him as a nice producer. Others clowned him and the beat for having generic sounds.
How is it sounding to you? Do you think Nas will give him a shot?

(AllHipHop Rumors) It’s actually kind of weird that folks think French Montana and Amber Rose are dating.
I mean in Hip Hop as well as Hollywood or Hollyweird depending on who you ask, if a person is spotted out with another person, people automatically assume they are dating.
French and Amber have always made it clear that they were cool, so I don’t know why it’s been all of this buzz now.
Folks really believe they are an item after some photos of them partying it up together in Miami surfaced.
Amber Rose took to Instagram to shut down the rumors as well as express how tired she was of being associated with rappers from photos.
“When ur friends genuinely love you because ur personality is amazing and ur heart is even more beautiful but the internet sexualizes every male friend you have ?,” said Amber.
Maybe Amber should’ve remained quiet because not many of her “fans” were buying her story on the gram. Most commented that they definitely believed French is smashing.
The funniest thing about Amber to me is the fact that every other day she is calling herself a s### and glamorizing hoeing and hoe behavior, but gets mad because people associate her with the slutty behavior.
For some reason I don’t buy their whole brother and sister relationship. LOL. It’s very much possible that thats’ all they are, but girls also use that often as a cover up. Carry on.

(AllHipHop News) Actor Terrence Howard has trimmed 40 pounds off his figure after his “Empire” co-star Taraji P. Henson repeatedly teased him about his weight.
The 48-year-old has been showing off a more slender look in recent months, and he admits it was a little tough love from his TV ex-wife which inspired him to rethink his lifestyle choices.
“Taraji was making so much fun of me at work about me gaining weight,” he explained on U.S. talk show “The View.” “She was like, ‘Do you really wanna look like this for the rest of your career? Is this how you wanna look, Terrence? C’mon.’ So every day she would tug at me until I got it right.”
Terrence set about overhauling his diet and hiring trainer-to-the-stars Darrell Foster to help him reach his new fitness goals.
“No carbs, no salt, no sugar,” he revealed of his strict new health rules. “I was working out with this guy, Darrell Foster – he trained Will Smith – a really beautiful trainer… (and I was doing) five miles in the morning every day, and working out in the afternoon.”
The actor insists it didn’t take too long for him to adapt to his new routine: “You can do it like this: walk a quarter mile, run a quarter mile…,” Terrence said, adding of his reduced salt intake, “After a week, you don’t even miss the salt; you can taste the salt in everything.”
And Terrence has plenty of reasons to continue with his health journey, including his wife Mira Pak and their two young sons, Qirin and Hero.
Heaping praise on Mira for standing by him through good times and bad, he shared, “It’s not when you’re at your highest point that someone shows you the appreciation; my wife came around at a time when no one was really dealing with me, and picked me up and polished me up… and it’s been the greatest blessing of my life.”
They managed to keep the split quiet until the actor’s marital status was brought up in the summer of 2015 as part of his court battle with ex-wife Michelle Ghent over their pricey divorce settlement.
Terrence also has three older children from his first marriage to Lori McCommas.

Holly Maniatty almost upstaged hip-hop star Snoop Dogg as she relayed his performance via sign language during his concert at the Jazz Fest in New Orleans.

“In order to make the interpretations as authentic as possible so the deaf patron is getting as close to the same experience as the hearing people are getting, I’m using signs that are, you know, indigenous to where that person, you know, grew up, or where they’re from or where they’re living currently,” Maniatty told NPR’s “All Songs Considered.”
And her prep clearly pays off as she explained that after the Wu-Tang show, a deaf concertgoer came up to her and said: “I never really got why people like hip-hop so much and now I get it.”
