Donald Trump Was Voted President, So Martin Shkreli Previewed A Few Unreleased Songs From Wu-Tang’s Rare Album

(AllHipHop News) Former Pharmaceutical boss Martin Shkreli has made good on his promise and has started to premiere music off of an unreleased Wu-Tang Clan album that he purchased for a reported $2 million.

Last month, Shkreli said that he would release the rare album to the American public if Donald Trump was elected President of the United States.

Well, last night (November 8), Donald Trump beat Hillary Clinton and shocked the nation in the process, and Shkreli stuck to his word and dropped a few songs from Wu’s Once Upon A Time In Shaolin.

Skreli also promised that if Trump won, he would put out his entire collection of unreleased music, including records from Nirvana and The Beatles, but so far he has only premiered a few minutes of the Wu’s unreleased album.

Take a listen:

Jimmy Henchman Plans To Call On 50 Cent To Testify In Court

(AllHipHop News) G-Unit leader 50 Cent has made it a habit to take shots online at James “Jimmy Henchman” Rosemond.

If Rosemond has his way, the two longtime rivals may have to face each other in person in a courtroom.

The former manager of The Game and other music stars recently won an appeal to have his murder conviction overturned.

Rosemond is now looking to call 50 Cent as a witness in a potential new trial.

“Here’s the thing, if I am retried on the murder-for-hire, and this is something that me and my attorneys have discussed already, I am 100 percent calling 50 Cent as a witness,” Rosemond told HipHopDX. “The reason I’m doing that is because there is some underlying stuff that happened throughout this whole thing that made them charge me; that made them feel like they could’ve gotten a conviction on me. His name came up in my trial more than it needed to.”

He continued, “We will be calling 50 Cent to the stand. If the prosecutors won’t call him, then we will call him because the things they are accusing me of doing to 50 Cent and Tony Yayo definitely didn’t happen. Where they are getting this from is unbeknownst to me.”

Rosemond was convicted for a murder-for-hire plot that led to the death of G-Unit associate Lowell “Lodi Mack” Fletcher.

According to reports, the hit on Fletcher was supposedly a response to G-Unit member Tony Yayo slapping Rosemond’s then teenage son.

Rosemond has maintained his innocence throughout the entire legal process.

In addition, the 51-year-old New Yorker is currently serving a life sentence for a separate federal drug trafficking case.

Does John Singleton Approve Of The ‘All Eyez On Me’ Tupac Biopic?

Uh oh! Film director John Singleton is NOT here for the ‘All Eyez On Me’ Tupac biopic.

Singleton is over the film and refuses to even watch the trailers or the film that has now been directed by Benny Boom.

Singleton told HipHopDx,

“I haven’t watched it and I refuse to watch it. I know that they f-cked it up so I’m not even trying to give it any attention.”

Dang, that’s certainly a shot at Benny Boom.

Singleton spoke with civil rights activist Deray McKesson, and gave a bit of insight into why things fell apart with him as a director of the Tupac biopic.

“I didn’t want to make it for many, many years. First of all, people wanted the story to be told, but I was so close to him. I was too close to tell the story of it. You have to remember, at first we had a working relationship and then a brotherhood.I saw other directors come on and something clicked in me saying I wanted to do it. I told the company if y’all m-thaf-ckas want to do this, you gotta get the f-ck out my face and let me do this movie.”

Singleton wanted to make sure the long-awaited Pac biopic did the late rap legend justice.

Singleton stated that Pac’s soul wouldn’t rest unless the film was done right, so he made sure to do the necessary research by talking to everyone who was around Pac.

Singleton expressed that although he wrote a terrific script, people couldn’t take a black man in Hollywood who has an opinion.

When Singleton was involved, he was passionate about not just telling the story of a rapper, but the story of someone who was raised to be a revolutionary.

Do you think Benny Boom has done Pac and the film justice?

Rick Ross Releases Statement About IRS Tax Obligations

(AllHipHop News) Earlier this week, Reports began circulating Maybach Music Group boss Rick Ross owed the IRS over $5 million in taxes.

Ross has released a statement about the situation:

I’ve been fortunate enough to experience financial success on a large scale through both my music career and my many business ventures. With this type of financial success comes financial responsibility. As artists we are blessed to be able to make money, but on the same note, are held accountable for our federal tax obligations just like everyone else. I am fully aware of my current dealings with the IRS. This issue arose from an incorrect filing by a prior accountant for the 2012 tax year.  My new team of accountants have corrected the prior filing, and as anyone who has dealt with the IRS understands, it is a process.  We have already satisfied a large portion of these issues and I can assure you that we are working very closely with the IRS to bring a full resolution shortly and will continue moving forward in a positive direction!

I was gonna stress myself to sleep. But f### that (I’m cussing sorry) I’m NOT letting this stress me out one bit. Don’t get me wrong I am MAD AS HELL. But I have to practice what I preach. The amount of time I devote to meditating and not letting speculation or bad energy rule my life—for me to just spazz out would be counter productive. I’ll be honest I went through 6 drafts of this. Erasing every last word cause I didn’t even believe it as i typed it. I’m just saying: I got a laundry list to the top of Mt Fuji of things I’ve overcome and still managed to survive—I’m just praying whatever strength I was given to make it through the hard times of yesteryear, that this strength and power revive me and all of my people (women, those of different religious background, LGBTQIAs, prisoners, the poor, the imm—look it’s 4am…—I don’t feel like doing an 8th draft—some of my friends gonna be angry as all hell. Some will point fingers—nevermind….I got nothing. Right now. —nothing

Donald Trump: The Next President Of The United States

(AllHipHop News) A new era of American politics is here. Donald Trump is the next president of the United States of America.

The businessman ran on a platform that the system was “rigged,” a message that resonated with many Americans.

Hillary Clinton called Donald Trump and conceded the election, prompting the looming Trump Administration to make their speeches.

“This is a historic night. The American people have spoken and the American people have elected their new champion,” said Vice President elect Mike Pence to chants of “U-S-A.” Pence thanked God and his family as well.

When Trump took to the stage, he thanked Hillary Clinton as well as his own his supporters.

“Its time for us to come together as one united people. I pledge…I will be president for all Americans,” Trump said. “I’m reaching out to (people that didn’t support me) so that we can unify this great country.”

The speech was dignified and gracious.

“Every single American will get a change to realize his or her fullest potential. We are going to fix our inner cites…we are going to rebuild our infrastructure,” he said.

He said he would also “take care of our great veterans,” provide jobs and also seek to create “national grown and renewal.” Continuing, he stated he would seek “partnership, not conflict.”

Donald Trump will be the 45th president of the United States.

New KXNG Crooked With Eminem, GOES IN!

Eminem just makes a brief cameo on this song, but the song is actually uncharacteristic for the one known as KXNG Crooked. The West Coast rep steps our of his comfort zone for “Welcome to Plant X.” The song envisions a new world that is rooted in the environmental racism, classism and dystopian world to come. Bars are very timely.

Lil Yachty Responds To “Biggie” Criticism!

You probably heard about what Lil Yachty said about Biggie Smalls. I don’t know why this is a “thing” still, but it is. The dude explained himself, but really didn’t help his cause too much. Or maybe he did.

Biggie is a legend, but its not really his place to even judge that dude. LOVE LIVE BIGGIE!

However, it seems like f**kery also going to live long as well!

Yachty don’t back down! ?

The Outlawz Discuss “So Much Pain” Single Celebrating 20th’ Anniversary Of Tupac’s “Don Killuminati” Album

Saturday (November 5), marked the 20th anniversary of Pac’s infamous Makavelli album and the remaining Outlawz, Young Noble and Edi A Mean, felt it only fitting to drop one of Hussein Fatal’s last recordings before his untimely death last year, as a tribute to him, Pac and of course Afeni Shakur.

“So Much Pain” was something Hussein and San Antonio producer, Ryan Elder of Elder Entertainment, LLC worked on together just prior to Hussein’s fatal July 2015 accident.

After some much needed healing time, Ryan decided to rework the track with Ace1 and reached out to Young Noble and E.D.I. Mean, who were anxious to put the finishing touches on it to honor their fallen comrade.

“I was just honored to be a part of the project and thankful to be able to pay homage to Fatal, Kadafi, and Pac.” Ryan finishes.

Also making an appearance is Elder’s up-and-coming R&B artist, Mike Green, who has a number of releases planned in the coming months.

“It’s a powerful record.  We don’t like to re-do 2pac songs, but I think we did this one justice and did it in a different way,” Young Noble said of the track.

“With being one of the last tracks we got to do with our brother Hussein Fatal, it has turned into a dedication song for him, Afeni, and all our other fallen comrades.  R.I.P.!” added E.D.I. Mean.

So Much Pain” has also been blessed with a Dr. Teeth-directed video which just hit the channels this weekend and will be making the rounds soonest. Stay tuned for that.

Common at LAX

Hip-Hop star Common will provide the narration for the upcoming documentary “Two Trains Runnin’.” The documentary, which was directed by Sam Pollard, chronicles the “Freedom Summer” of 1964, where murdered activists including James Chaney, Andrew Goodman, and Michael Schwerner—were drawn to the deep South to take part in the Civil Rights movement. At the very same time, two others groups of young men set out on a quest to find Blues legends Skip James and Son House, who hadn’t recorded in decades. They all converged in Mississippi and the documentary, weaves together the history of music and the Civil Rights movement in one of America’s most volatile time periods.

Did Kanye West Clean House Again?

Kanye West is one interesting fella!

The rapper allegedly threw out all the furniture from he and Kim Kardashian’s new home in Los Angeles all because he didn’t like it.

We could totally see it, as he once clean out Kim K’s entire closet.

You can do what you want when you have money, so Kanye wasn’t worried about throwing out $30K couches.

Ye allegedly decided he hated ALL of the furniture that celebrity interior designer, Sandy Gallin, brought in, and demanded it be returned to the vendors immediately.

Perhaps the two should’ve teamed up before decorating the home. We all know how a### Ye can be.

Apparently the vendors refused to take it back, and Ye allegedly decided to put it all into storage.

Although Gallin has been replaced by interior designer Axel Vervoordt, Kim K is said to be p##### that Kayne is keeping their family from being settled after the robbery incident in Paris.

Did Meek Mill Spazz Over Drake When He Should Have Been Making Out With Nicki?

Image result for drake odell beckham gifI don’t know what is wrong with these rappers. They need NOT to be worried about another man. But they are worried about another man. If Nicki Minaj was my girl, I wouldn’t be concerned with anything but making sure her dinner was made, her bathwater was 77.5 degrees and that my tongue game was up to par for her needs. Basically, I’m going to be happy. I definitely ain’t gonna worry about them playing Drake in the club. Guess what? Rumor has it Drake got Meek all mad, according to a report from New York’s Page 6. He was at Odell Beckham, Jr’s party nonetheless! Becky and Drizzy are buddies! Of course they are gonna play Drake! Dude got the biggest chick in the rap game and a hit album….but mad? I’m eating Chef Boyardee for dinner! I should be mad!
