“Rick Ross, you know you owe that bread t#### man. I’m gonna beat the dog s**t out of you,” says Suge. “I’m the first n***a had the bald head and the beard from ‘Bompton’.”

He continued, “I got a show It Ain’t Smart Being Stupid. I’m going to invite Rick Ross on there – that ain’t his real name, whatever. If he can get me, I’m going to shave my motherf**king beard. But when I beat his motherf**king ass, kick him square in his motherf**king ass and play with his t######, he need to shave his beard and go back to the police that he is.”

Suge also addresses his recent comments about Kendrick Lamar and Game having bad record deals. He explains that he was not taking shots at the two West Coast rappers. He was attempting to speak on the bad situation at Interscope Records and its head Jimmy Iovine.

“It’s not about the negativity. Don’t give [Lamar] a bad deal, and say you’re going to sell him for a dollar. Show him that he has really has a great deal, because it’s not about you,” adds Suge. “Stop being a motherf**king foot solider for Jimmy Iovine. Don’t be no slaves.”

(AllHipHop News) Dr. Dre has made more money making headphones than he has ever made making beats and ironically Beats is about to make him even richer. According to reports, tech goliath Apple is planning to purchase Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine’s Beats Electronics.

While reports are not solidified, Apple is set to purchase the leader in the U.S. headphone market for $3.2 billion, their biggest acquisitions since Steve Jobs died in 2011. The deal would include Apple claiming ownership of Beats Electronic music subscription service, Beats Music, a competitor for Apple’s iTunes Radio.

Last year, streaming music subscriptions increased as digital downloads experienced their first annual decrease since Apple’s iTunes arrived in 2003.

In August 2011, manufacturer HTC purchased 50.1% of Beats Electronics for $300 million. In less than three years later, Beats Electronics purchased the shares back for $415 million. Dr. Dre accumulated $100 million in pretax earnings from the 2011 sale and could make upwards of $1 billion from the sale with Apple.

Dr. Dre was second on Forbes’ Cash King List for highest net worth among Hip Hop celebrities this year.

EXCLUSIVE: Smoke DZA Talks Undertaker Losing At Wrestlemania, Favorite Knicks Moment + More (VIDEO)

(AllHipHop News) Last night (May 7th), Smoke DZA and clouds of marijuana commandeered SOBs for the album release party of Smoke DZA’s Dream.Zone.Achieve. In an EXCLUSIVE interview with DZA following the show, the Kushed God himself spoke on the Undertaker’s undefeated streak, the one Knicks moment that had him, his father and others in his neighborhood sad and more.

DZA has been releasing free projects online since 2009’s Substance Abuse mixtape. While he released 2011’s Rolling Stoned and 2012’s Rugby Thompson for sale, the R.F.C. Music Group-released Dream.Zone.Achieve is a different landmark in his independent rap career:

This is actually my first I put out for sale on my own. Others I had help by other independent companies. But, this is the first time actually putting an album out under my own independent company.

Prior to releasing his debut album Dream.Zone.Achieve, DZA released the wrestling-inspired Ringside 2 EP. As an avid wrestling fan, DZA explains how the Undertaker’s undefeated streak at Wrestlemania ending last month was pretty emotionally devastating:

I was hurt. It was like watching your childhood pet get put to sleep. That’s the only best way I can put it. There were people crying.

DZA, a long time New York Knicks fan, claims that the controversial Larry Johnson four-point play in the 1999 NBA Finals against the San Antonio Spurs was his favorite Knicks moment. However, in his song “Ghost of Dipset”, DZA remarks he “broke hearts like when Ewing missed the finger roll”. According to DZA, Patrick Ewing missing the game-tying layup at the end of Game 7 for the 1995 Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Indiana Pacers was the most heart breaking Knicks moment and had a deep emotional affect on more people other than just himself in his family:

The most disappointing moment was Ewing missing the finger roll. I remember that as a child. It was painful for me, my dad and every Knicks fan in my neighborhood.

Reports are starting to surface that Mariah Carey and husband Nick Cannon’s marriage is a little rocky, so rocky that Carey is looking to possibly call it quits.

Huffington Post is reporting:

“It is claimed Mariah, 44, is seriously considering divorcing from Nick, 33. “Mariah’d cut him loose right now. But she’s worried about him making a grab for a huge chunk of her $515 million fortune,” one source told America’s OK! magazine, with another insider noting her other half is also in misery.

“Nick feels burned that Mariah is ready to pull the plug. They have a pre-nup, but after Nick tells his side of the story Mariah will most likely settle with him financially and realize her once beautiful marriage has evaporated.” “Nick loves to goof on Mariah, but she hates it,” a source revealed. “She has spent decades cultivating an image of an iconic glamour-p###.”

It is claimed Mariah and Nick, who are parents to three-year-old fraternal twins Moroccan and Monroe, are so upset with each other, they didn’t even celebrate their sixth wedding anniversary last week. “Mariah threw a diva ft and started browbeating Nick about being an absentee, no-good husband. She gave him hell for being immature and accused him of fooling around with other chicks,” an insider said. “She told him to cancel whatever anniversary plans he’d made.” ”

Hmmmm we’ll have to keep an eye on this one…

Kimmy Cakes and Ye are ready to head down the aisle in to marital bliss, but there’s one little issue holding the couple up, the prenup negotiations.

Sources tell TMZ, “the prenup won’t be signed until next week — probably Wednesday at the earliest. We’re told the marriage will NOT take place until both sign on the dotted line.”

TMZ also reports, “unlike Kim’s prenup with Kris Humphries, the current negotiations are friendly, there’s no fighting. We’re told there’s just a lot to work out, and it got complicated by the fact that Kanye recently changed management.”

These two have both been in some messy relationships, can’t blame them for wanting to protect themselves.

Richard Sherman: Donald Sterling Would Not Have Been Banned For Life If He Was In The NFL

(AllHipHop News) Yesterday (May 7th), Richard Sherman signed a four year contract extension with the Seattle Seahawks for $57 million with $40 million guaranteed.

During a recent interview with TIME magazine, the verbose Seahawks cornerback stated that the racist comments from Los Angeles Clippers’ owner Donald Sterling did not surprise him. According to Sherman, the racist comments about his post-game interview after the 2014 NFC Championship game helped him understand that “that America still had some progress to make. “

Sherman also stated that given the NFL’s acceptance of a team with name Redskins (derogatory term for Native Americans), he did not believe Sterling would be banned for life if he was an owner in the NFL:

No I don’t. Because we have an NFL team called the Redskins. I don’t think the NFL really is as concerned as they show. The NFL is more of a bottom line league. If it doesn’t affect their bottom line, they’re not as concerned.

(AllHipHop News) Rich Homie Quan is not adverse to “turning up”, but that does not mean that aspect of his lifestyle is what contributed to his recent seizure attacks. Today (May 8th), Quan responds to allegations that he was on a “lean binge” prior to his recent seizure attacks.

A day after Quan was hospitalized and released for seizure attacks he sustained on a music video shoot with Problem, rumors circulated that Quan had consumed an immense amount of Lean prior to the attacks. In a recently released statement to AllHipHop.com, Quan categorically denies the allegations and reiterates his original stance that his excessive work schedule is the primary reason for his recent hospitalization:

I want to clear up two things, after being in 3 states in 3 days, up early having to shoot my video for “Walk Thru” and even sleeping in between scenes on top of filming in this humid Atlanta heat, I fainted and hit my head. It’s no secret that I do turn up, I don’t deny that but I’m not addicted to anything including drugs nor was I leaning at the shoot.

Rich Homie Quan is scheduled to perform with the rest of the XXL Freshman Class of 2014 on June 9th at Best Buy Theatre in New York City.

Check out the full statement below:

I just want to thank my fans and everyone who has called concerned about me,” he said. “I want to clear up two things, after being in 3 states in 3 days, up early having to shoot my video for ‘Walk Thru’ and even sleeping in between scenes on top of filming in this humid Atlanta heat, I fainted and hit my head. It’s no secret that I do turn up, I don’t deny that but I’m not addicted to anything including drugs nor was I leaning at the shoot. The media is gonna put fake stories out there but I just want to let my fans know that I’m good and recovering. The second thing is, I promised I will never stop going in and I mean that.
