Papoose Says He’s Better Than Jay Z & Will Drop A Project Every Month
(AllHipHop News) Since Papoose’s unexpected performance at the end of Kendrick Lamar’s set at Hot 97’s Summer Jam XX last year, Papoose has been two things: prolific and brazen. In an interview with The New York Daily News, Pap proclaims his “King of New York” dominance over all MCs, promises to release an album every month and more.
Papoose, who has dissed Drake, Kendrick Lamar and Trinidad James since last summer, points to his lyrical dexterity that puts him above the rest:
Nobody is better than me — Jay-Z, nobody. None are more lyrically inclined than me. None of them. I’m definitely the king of New York. I am the greatest out of New York.
Papoose’s last album, the perpetually delayed Nacrimea Dream was released March 2013 and has sold 17,000 to date. Papoose claims that his lack of commercial success will not deter him and in response he will embark on the most prolific promotional campaign of his career:
I’m going to release a body of music every month.” I don’t feel like there’s no artist out there doing that.
TONIGHT: Sergey Kovalev vs. Cedric Agnew: The Krusher Meets The Unknown Challenge
Tonight, Sergey Kovalev will enter the ring in Atlantic City as not just the WBO light-heavyweight title-holder, but also as the last light-heavyweight champion standing on the HBO network. This reality comes not from the power of Kovalev’s fists, but due to the current nature of “boxing politics,” which has resulted in rival Adonis Stevenson, the WBC champion, confirming this week that he’s taking his talents to the Showtime network. This is dually a good and bad predicament for the man nicknamed “The Krusher.” On one hand, Kovalev now holds the sole attention of a premium network in desperate need of a finding bankable stars to flesh out their brand. But how can Kovalev retain that network and fan attention without the elite dance partners required to make compelling fights?
Enter Cedric Agnew, a fighter whose spent much of this promotion declaring that Kovalev is an “ordinary” fighter he holds no fear of. Usually, a fighter with a 26-0 record would be a hot commodity in the sport. In Agnew’s case, the lack of credible names and recent seesawing between 6 and 12 round fights had kept him off the championship radar until now. Saturday doesn’t just represent a title opportunity, but also what would go down as an Upset of the Year pick should Agnew pull off the victory.
In this exclusive, split interview for Knockout Nation, Agnew and Kovalev give their final impressions on their bout, each other, and what the future may hold.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Is 2Chainz Getting Sued By Backstage Video Chick?
It was the prank that was seen all across the Dark World! 2Chainz put some chick on full blast as she made her way backstage as some concert. He took the footage and put it on Youtube with the caption “thisisyourTHOT.” Well, I don’t know how the ladies get down backstage in this day and age, but she seemed like a fan to me. BUT, what do I know? But what they say is she was allegedly let backstage by accident, mistaken for another “thot.” Nevertheless, it is now rumored that she is going to sue 2Chainz for making her out to be a pure hoe on the social scene of the internet. She allegedly posted an image of herself at her lawyers, preparing to file a civil suit for damages stemming from the video.
Here is the video in question.
Wordondastreet.com posted the following pictures:
Apparently, the girl had to shut down her Instagram and other social media spots due to the barrage of disparaging comments.
“For the record I’m not a thot, I reset my account because I had family on it. Tauheed Epps aka 2 chainz you will definitely be hearing from my lawyer.”
This is serious. And it sets a precedence if you ask me. Maybe I’m a softie, but aren’t you supposed to treat fans, even groupies, good to some degree? I’ll never know since, I have neither. SMH.

Radio Host Star Says Jay Z Once Sold Him Cocaine In The 80s (W/ Audio)
(AllHipHop News) Jay Z once said “while y’all record, I recall” and yesterday (Thursday) radio personality Star revealed an old tale of Jay Z pre-fame days. On his Shot97 Radio show, Star reveals that Jay Z once sold him cocaine to him back in the 80s.
Star states he’s “not trying to play Jay Z out” by revealing these stories about Jay Z drug past. According to Star, the man with 13 #1 album had a quality product in the 80s, but competition was stiff:
Back in the late ‘80s, I went to this man on a few occasions, hand-to-hand. He had the good sh*t. Now his sh*t wasn’t as popping as the West Indians over in the 90s and in Flatbush. Them Shower Posse n*ggas must have had that s### shipped in from Columbia or some f*ckin’ where.
Star does say Jay Z was a generous drug dealer “extended credit to a coke head in the wee hours” when Star was short on payment.
Jay Z has attributed his present business acumen that has helped him amass a reported net worth of $550 million to his drug dealing skills. In his Vanity Fair cover story back in October 2013 Jay Z spoke on this connection:
I know about budgets. I was a drug dealer. To be in a drug deal, you need to know what you can spend, what you need to re-up.
Check out Star speak on Jay Z’s drug dealing past on Shot97 Radio show below:

Hip-Hop Rumors: Lupita Nyong’o and K’naan Planning to Get Married?
Could Lupita and K’naan go all the way to the alter? If you don’t already know K’naan is a world renown rapper. He’s highly respected and also the boyfriend of Lupita. There are new rumors that suggest that the pair are close to getting married after a mere 6 months.
Why? Duh – they are in love like the drunk people. BUT, there is a catch! Lupita is now a product of Hollywood and her career is coming into play. They are saying that she is very in love with her rapper man, but her career is taking the lead in her love life. Here is what Star Magazine is saying:
After winning the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for 12 Years a Slave, Lupita Nyong’o may add one more monumental man to her life: a husband. The actress, 31, and her boyfriend of six months, Somali-born rapper K’naan,36, want to get hitched.
Insiders say that Lupita’s team is sorely against the idea – and the Kenyan native is tempted to elope. “She’s crazy for him,” says a source, “but she knows how much is at stake. Her Hollywood dream is in sight, and she’s on the cusp of a great career.
Her heart says yes, but her brain knows its too soon.”
Interesting, More interesting, would be a new album by K’naan.

DeSean Jackson Responds To Gang Affiliation Allegations After Being Cut From Eagles
(AllHipHop News) DeSean Jackson has issued a statement after being cut from the Philadelphia Eagles today.
Jackson was gracious in his response, but homed in on allegations that he was affiliated with gangs, which he denied.
First I would like to thank the Eagles organization, the Eagles fans and the city of Philadelphia for my time in Philly. I would also like to thank coach Andy Reed (sic) for bringing me in. Secondly, I would like to address the misleading and unfounded reports that my release has anything to do with any affiliation that has been speculated surrounding the company I keep off of the field. I would like to make it very clear that I am not and never have been part of any gang. I am not a gang member and to speculate and assume that I am involved in such activity off the field is reckless and irresponsible. I work very hard on and off the field and I am a good person with good values. I am proud of the accomplishments that I have made both on and off the field. I have worked tirelessly to give back to my community and have a positive impact on those in need. It is unfortunate that I now have to defend myself and my intentions. These reports are irresponsible and just not true. I look forward to working hard for my new team. God Bless.”
Most of the speculation has been unverified by the Eagles front office. Yet, a report by NJ.com seems to offer truthful insight to the rumors.
“They are concerned about having him around the younger players. Jackson’s continued association with reputed Los Angeles street gang members who have been connected to two homicides since 2010,” the source said.
Jackson recorded a song, “Diamonds On My Neck,” with well-known Crip Snoop Dogg and the video has highly suggestive content.
A number of teams have purported interest in Jackson, most notably The Oakland Raiders and The New York Jets.
#HeaterOfTheDay: Taylor J Ft. Yung Gwapa “Real Money “
Birdman: Tha Carter V Will Be Released Before Nicki Minaj’s New Album
(AllHipHop News) Maybe this was the news that Lil Wayne’s manager Cortez Bryant was speaking on. A week after Bryant denied that Tha Carter V will be released on May 5th, the Cash Money Records head honcho Birdman gives a little more clarity.
While discussing Nicki Minaj’s career with Billboard, Birdman stated that some of Young Money will appear on Nicki Minaj’s new album that has no release date as-of-yet. While there is no firm release date for Nicki or Wayne’s album, Birdman assures that Tha Carter V will arrive before Minaj’s third album, The Pinkprint:
This album is going to have a little bit of everything but more rap. I am sure some of the team will be on it. She’s still doing her thing, then getting features on it. She’s definitely coming this year. She hasn’t picked a date yet. What she did for Young Money is totally different then what she’s doing for her album. She’s more girly-er. ‘Tha Carter V’ will definitely come before Nicki’s [album].
The release date for Nicki’s new album may never be released until the day the album comes out, according to the rap superstar. Back in February, Nicki Minaj informed Angie Martinez on The Angie Martinez Show that “The Pink Print is not going to have a release date. You’ll never know when it’s coming until it just comes.” However, Minaj did specify that her album release will not be identical to Beyonce’s, but similar:
Not all the way. I won’t set a release date until the album is really done and until I’ve lived with it for a long time… I’m not going to pull a B, I’m just going to chill for a second and see how it goes.
Hip-Hop Rumors: Could Shonda Rhimes Kill Columbus Short Off Scandal?
People don’t remember but Columbus Short kicks ASSSSSSSSS! This dude used to wreck shop, when he was a dancer or something. He used to stomp the yard. Well, now he stomps his enemies. On “Scandal,” he talks like Dark Knight and in real life he wrecks shop like Batman too.
The only thing is Shorty, so very good on the show, is allegedly so very bad in real life. He has spousal abuse incidents on deck and more recently he got in a fight at a bar.
Here is Columbus Short’s handiwork, according to TMZ:
ANYWAY, the latest is that his character might be killed off of “Scandal” if he’s not able to pull it together. Obviously, he is popular, but more obvious is that he’s got some anger issues. He allegedly knocked that dude out at an ENGAGEMENT PARTY!
When it comes to living that Gladiator Life in 2014….just saying….

Collegiate Athlete Recieved A- For An Illiterate 10-Sentence Essay On Rosa Parks
(AllHipHop News) Rosa Parks did not get arrested for this. A tutor at the University of North Carolina spoke on athletes taking fake classes and having falsified grades in order to retain eligibility to play.
In an expose from ESPN, Mary Willingham spoke on the scam of “paper classes” which were classes labeled as “independent studies” and did not require athletes to attend the classes and were given grades based on one or a few papers. Willingham spoke on the literacy level of these athletes at the University of North Carolina, explaining why they were encouraged to take “paper classes”:
Athletes couldn’t write a paper. They couldn’t write a paragraph. They couldn’t write a sentence. Some of these students could read at maybe a second- or third-grade level. But for an adult that is considered illiterate
The African American department held a number of those “paper classes”. In one instance, a collegiate athlete was given an A- for a paper on Rosa Parks that was laden with grammatical and spelling errors, only ran 10 sentences/146 words and was incomplete. Deunta Williams, a former defensive back at UNC from 2007-2010 spoke on how players cavalierly spoke about “paper classes”:
Just that it was an easy paper class. It was a paper class, you know you can chill. You can get help writing it. [If] you wanted to get an easy B. If you had a reading level of third grade and you took a lot of these classes, you passed, you graduated. Couldn’t be too hard.
Back in May of 2012, UNC had an internal probe conducted and revealed that 54 classes in the African American Studies department were either “aberrant” or “irregularly” taught from summer 2007 to summer 2011. However, an independent probe by North Carolina Governor Jim Martin in 2012 revealed improprieties in the African American department dating back to Fall of 1997.

No Malice: Be Very Clear, I Am NOT Doing Another Clipse Album (VIDEO)
(AllHipHop News) Most of the times you have to decipher what rappers say in interviews like you breaking down Morse Code, not with No Malice. In an interview with Rapzilla at this year’s SXSW, No Malice definitely denounced any rumors of his involvement in a future Clipse album,
Rumors of a new Clipse album resurfaced earlier this year when a link to an article about Pusha T being in the studio with The Neptunes was posted on Pusha T’s Facebook account with a picture of The Clipse together and a caption that read “It’s Coming”. Less than a week after the announcement, Pusha T informed DJ Heat that he did not confirm a Clipse reunion album but did hint that the duo are “working”. No Malice does not state if him and Pusha T are actually working but does vehemently deny that they are working on an album together:
People keep asking me about this Clipse album. I’ve been very clear. Ive’ been very consistent from the beginning. I don’t know why I have to keep answering this question, but I don’t do that music anymore. I don’t know if people want me to keep repeating my past life. What I would like to think is that my audience that grew up WITH me are still growing up. I can’t cater to every generation that comes under. It’s like repeating the third grade over and over and over again. No I’m somewhere else now. No, I am not doing another another Clipse album. Be very clear.

Dave Chappelle To Headline His 1st Ever Show At Radio City Music Hall In June
(AllHipHop News) Dave Chapelle is coming back to New York City. Last night (March 27th), LiveNation sent out a press release stating that Dave Chapelle will perform at Radio City Music Hall in June.
The show will be Chapelle’s first ever headlining show at Radio City Music Hall. Tickets go on sale to the general public next Friday (April 4th) at 10 A.M. on ticketmaster.com. Prices for the tickets will range between $59-79.
American Express® Card Members can purchase tickets before the general public beginning Tuesday, April 1 at 10 a.m.through Thursday, April 3 at 10 p.m.
This may be Chapelle’s first headlining show at Radio City Music Hall but he has performed at the famed establishment. Back in May of 2006, he appeared as one of The Root’s surprise guests during Verizon Presents The Roots With Special Guests. The appearance occurred a month after telling Oprah on The Oprah Winfrey Show that he left The Chapelle Show due to fatigue, lack of creative control and illness as a reason for his decision. To the packed crowd at Radio City Music Hall back in May 2006, he told a different story:
I figured it out. This whole sh*t is run off a game. Nobody knows what the game is. I figured it out. I know the whole sh*t. You have to look for the clues when you dealing with Hollywood. You have to ask yourself the right question, because Hollywood thinks they’re slick. I’m serious, man. Ask yourself this: How many people live in India? 1.2 billion. So think about it: Do you think Hollywood, could’ve found an Indian to play Ghandi.
The film Chapelle may have been referencing was the 1982 film Ghandi which had British actor Ben Kingsley play the role of Mahatma Ghandi.
