Xscape recently announced they are reuniting to record a new album and launch a tour after a 12-year hiatus.
The news about the project also comes after bosses at TV One revealed they are developing a biopic about the group.
The biopic at TV One is not authorized and the group members do not approve of the project.
“We are excited to join forces with Mona Scott-Young and Monami Entertainment to bring the real Xscape story to the world,” a statement from Xscape reads. “This partnership will allow us to tell our story about our lives the way we lived it. It’s our truth about the rise, the fall, and the return of Xscape. We feel the recent announcement of an unauthorized biopic on our lives is disrespectful and disappointing. We are not, in any way, participating in that project and it will never represent our true story.”
In addition to the biopic, the group is looking to develop a docuseries about its reunion.
Two years since his last album, followed by only a few [under the radar] singles; Ne-Yo has been somewhat quiet these past months. However, the R&B singer returns from his hiatus with a new remix over Kendrick Lamar’s popular “DAMN.” single “HUMBLE.”

(AllHipHop News) Nas has built a nice relationship with Harvard University.
The rap icon helped establish the prestigious institution’s Nasir Jones Hip Hop Fellowship, and he was awarded the W.E.B Dubois Medal from Harvard’s Hutchins Center for African & African American Research.
Recently, Nas sat down with Harvard poetry professor Elisa New to discuss his classic Illmatic record “It Ain’t Hard To Tell.”
Nas took the time to break down a few lines from one of his breakout singles for the Poetry in America YouTube channel.
The conversation goes to show the truly poetic nature of the Queens emcee’s lyrics and Hip Hop music in general.
“Before there was rap music, there was this different way of using the English language,” said Nas. “There’s certain neighborhoods that spin the words around a lot different than others.”
He added, “I talk from that point of view – that language around my neighborhood that everybody uses. I don’t even recognize an outside world, especially back then.”

(AllHipHop News) Rapper French Montana is doing his part to help end extreme poverty by donating $100,000 to the Mama Hope community charity in Uganda.
French, whose family struggled financially during his childhood in Morocco, reveals he learned about Mama Hope through a mutual friend, and his stop at the Suubi Center inspired him to do more for organization officials, who support entrepreneurship worldwide to help kids from tough backgrounds lift themselves and their families out of poverty.
“That touched my heart when I went out there,” he told Billboard.com of his trip and the reason for his generous donation, which will directly benefit the Suubi Center and local blood banks. “I felt like taking my clothes off while I was there and giving it to them there.
“I feel like sometimes God puts you in a platform where you’re supposed to help other people.”
The hip-hop star decided to feature the fancy footwork of local Ugandan kids in his “Unforgettable” promo, and he has since launched the Unforgettable Dance Challenge, urging fans to show off their moves to the track on social media to raise awareness and additional donations for Mama Hope.
“I feel like when you do stuff like that, the energy gives off of it itself (sic),” French said. “Us taking 30-hour trips over there, helping kids and using a platform that I got to showcase these kids’ talents from the dancing to the ambition to the hunger, I felt like everything came together.”
The Unforgettable Dance Challenge has already taken off online, thanks to French’s famous friends like Drake, Swizz Beatz, and DJ Khaled helping to push the latest craze on social media.
(AllHipHop Rumors) Maybe it’s me, but it doesn’t seem like Queen Bey has been pregnant that long.
Beyonce broke the ‘net a few months ago when she announced that her and Jay Z were expecting twins.
It wasn’t made clear how far along she was when she shared her pregnancy photos, but rumor has it that she may be dropping Blueprint 1 & 2 or Brooklyn & Houston Carter any day now.
I don’t know what crazy names they will give these twins, but those were a few humorous guesses.
Beyonce looks well into her third trimester, and according to RadarOnline, she will be giving birth sooner than people think!
“Beyonce’s twins are coming sooner than people think! With twins, it is not too uncommon for the doctors to perform a C-section a month or so early,” an insider told Radar!
Sources close to the family believe that Beyonce may give birth this week!
I honestly think it’s too early for Bey to be dropping these twins! What are your thoughts?

(AllHipHop News) Rapper Tyler the Creator has shut down “annoying” speculation he is set to drop a surprise new album this week.
Fans of the Odd Future star have been buzzing about the rumored follow-up to 2015’s Cherry Bomb after linking the 26-year-old to a mysterious website decorated in bright colors with flowers and expletives – similar to the style Tyler is known for.
The homepage for ScumF**kFlowerBoy.com also featured a countdown clock, which expires on Friday (May 5), leading site visitors to assume the rapper was preparing to release fresh material.
However, Tyler has since taken to Twitter to distance himself from the website.
“not my site,” he began in a series of posts. “yall gullible smh (shaking my head)… s**t is annoying, like really? if u aint hear it from me it aint real (sic)”.
He then advised fans to take screenshots of the tweets before he deletes them, because “it makes this page look ugly.”
Moments later, Tyler stayed true to his word and removed the posts from his profile.
(AllHipHop Rumors) Future may have finally found him a new boo!
There were many couples and boo’d up folks that caught eyes and turned heads at the 2017 Met Gala.
One pair that did just that was Future and model Jourdan Dunn.
Instead of folks being surprised that Future has been able to attend the Met Gala a few times, some folks were acting like they didn’t recognize the supermodel. How Sway?!
Dunn appeared on the red carpet with Future on her arm, and you know in the music and entertainment industries…….well in the celebrity world period, you can’t be spotted with ANYONE without rumors spreading that you are dating them. It’s almost like there is no such thing as friends anymore.
So….. of course folks think Future and Jourdan are dating. After Ciara, I get nervous for women. LOL. Has Future grown up yet? Does he still want to have his cake and eat it too?
One thing that’s for sure is the fact that Jourdan is beautiful though! Maybe Nayvadius has truly found his Ciara replacement now!

(AllHipHop Rumors) I still think Peter Gunz needs to have a vasectomy!
Woooo wipes forehead! I was getting nervous for a second.
It looks like there’s good news for Peter and his sister wives Amina and Tara!
Rumors were spreading that Peter Gunz may have fathered MTV ‘Teen Mom’ star Kailyn Lowry’s baby that she’s currently carrying.
Peter Gunz got people talking for two reasons: 1. it feels like he has a million kids, and 2. because he commented underneath Lowry’s post of her and her baby bump stating that he planned to call her.
Well Peter’s nephew, Javi Marroquin, is Lowry’s ex-husband, so that would have been a hot azz mess. But when you look at Peter, and his current relationship three-way situation, nothing would surprise me.
Well luckily for Peter, Lowry has cleared the air on the situation revealing that Peter is NOT the father!
Lowry took to Twitter to let it be known that her friend Chris Lopez is her third baby daddy. I’d be willing to bet that Peter still isn’t done having kids yet though!
Ancestry DNA & yeah he is… stop with the headlines already. https://t.co/tAB1ef6RHu

(AllHipHop Rumors) Nicki Minaj recently changed the name of her fan base from The Barbz to “The Kingdom”, and let me just say that they are going to light troubled actor Columbus Short’s azz up when they wake up!
Nicki has one of those very loyal fan bases that will go in on a person on social media over their leader.
Judging Columbus’ shaky and troubled past, I’m surprised he would comment on anyone else’s life.
In #PostAndDelete files, Short posted a photoshopped photo on Instagram taking a shot at Nicki Minaj and any other fake women with fake body parts and enhancements.
“I normally wouldn’t do this. But I feel it’s a must for “Generation IG” Exhibit A. On the right you have a Big Body Mercedes Benz, a Maybach even. HOWEVER…. on the left you have 91 Honda Civic with expired tags, no insurance, a faulty clutch and no real tail lights. The moral of this picture is (drum roll please)… Check the #Carfax because you could be purchasing a lemon. #MESSAGE…. My sincere apologies to all the Nick fans out there, even if the picture on the left is photo shopped, the pic on the right is as REAL… as Santa coming down your chimey next Christmas. There are still real woman out there. LOOK AT THEM GIVE THEM LIKES. #IVoteForTheRealOnes #WillTheRealWomanPostUp and if you don’t like what I had to say #UnfollowPlease,” posted Short.
While I do believe that the fake booty trend has gone too far with women looking crazy and even risking their lives at times for black market procedures, why did Columbus have to use Nicki to make his point?!
How do you feel about women with fake breasts and butts?

(AllHipHop News) Two more songs from Lil Wayne’s long-delayed Tha Carter V album have been leaked online by controversial pharmaceutical mogul Martin Shkreli.
The “Lollipop” hitmaker shelved the new material indefinitely in 2015 after becoming embroiled in a legal dispute with his former mentor and Cash Money Records boss Bryan ‘Baby’ Williams, but in December, Shkreli claimed to have obtained a copy of the held-up release, and proceeded to tease a music clip online.
However, he appeared to break that vow on Wednesday (May 3), when he live streamed himself listening to two other cuts from Tha Carter V – one called “Mona Lisa,” which features a guest appearance by Kendrick Lamar, and the other titled “The Life of Carter.”
Wayne, who is currently on tour, has yet to comment on the latest leak.
He began recording tracks for Tha Carter V in 2011, but its official release remains in limbo as Wayne is still locked in a $51 million lawsuit against Williams, who has allegedly been withholding money he is owed for the long-awaited project.

(AllHipHop Rumors) Someone please come get infamous troll Martin Shkreli!
Shkreli previously stated that he would no longer be leaking anymore of Lil Wayne’s ‘Carter V’ music, but he’s breaking his promise as he’s leaked 2 more tracks off of Wayne’s much-delayed “Carter V” album!
One track that Shkreli has previewed is “Mona Lisa” featuring Kendrick Lamar. He also played a snippet of “The Life of Carter.”
Around Christmas time last year, Shkreli p##### off Lil Wayne and his camp when he leaked a Weezy track!
He swore up and down that he wouldn’t release anymore of Tunechi’s music, but no surprise here; the man CANNOT be trusted!
Poor Lil Wayne! It sounds like Weezy and his camp may need to go ahead and follow through with the lawsuit they previously considered filing against Shkreli!
Check out Shkreli’s preview via TMZ!
(AllHipHop Rumors) Has Tyler been cooking up new music?!
Tyler The Creator fans seemed to believe that a new album from the rapper was dropping tonight because of a countdown on the website, http://scumfuckflowerboy.com/.
The words “May 2017” appear along with a countdown that leads up to 11 p.m. EST, tonight, Thursday (May 4).
Tyler fans have been debating about whether or not the mysterious release would be an album or a clothing line.
While Tyler may have something up his sleeve, or something in the works, he sure isn’t dropping an album tonight! He jumped on Twitter to let his fans know that they are gullible, and he has nothing to do with the fake website.
With hours left on the countdown, I guess we’ll eventually get to see what the site is really all about!
Are you interested in new music from Tyler The Creator?

(AllHipHop News) When it comes to success in the music field, Future is having a great 2017.
The Atlanta rhymer released two #1 albums, FUTURE and HNDRXX, setting a new chart record.
In addition, “Mask Off” became the highest-charting single of his career.
Future appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live this week to perform the hit record.
The Freebandz leader also ran through the Zaytoven-produced “Used To This” on the late-night talk show.
(AllHipHop News) Kendrick Lamar’s DAMN is well on its way to platinum status.
According to HitsDailyDouble, the album will land at #1 on the sales plus streaming chart for a third straight week.
DAMN is predicted to add another 160,000 – 170,000 units in week three.
That range will give Kendrick’s fourth LP close to 1,000,000 total units to date.
The first week saw DAMN collect 603,000 album-equivalent units.
In week two, the critically acclaimed project picked up another 238,000 units.
K. Dot’s DAMN is now in a tie with Drake’s More Life for holding the #1 position for three weeks in 2017.
Starboy by The Weeknd has spent four weeks in the top spot this year.
(AllHipHop News) Apparently, Schoolboy Q was under investigation for felony armed robbery.
According to TMZ, police were looking into whether the “THat Part” performer was involved in an incident following a Los Angeles concert last March.
The website reports:
The alleged victims said they followed Q to an after party, and when they arrived 2 people robbed them at gunpoint. They admit the rapper “never participated in the actual robbery,” but told police he showed up in another car while it was happening. Their insinuation was Q masterminded the jacking.
The alleged victims supposedly delayed reporting the robbery and had no interest in filing charges when authorities inquired about the situation.
Prosecutors then rejected the case.
Meanwhile, Q is continuing to work on his fifth studio album.
“On this record, it’s more so my life after I made it to the point of Schoolboy Q,” stated the TDE representative. “Like I gave you me, but I never gave you the other side of me – the father, the dude that’s actually happy, the dude that doesn’t be in the hood just hanging out, the dude that’s trying to put his homie in position now.”
Top Dawg Entertainment head Anthony Tiffith revealed Schoolboy’s next LP is slated to arrive after labelmate SZA releases her project.
