(AllHipHop News) Nicki Minaj’s latest song “Lookin A** N***a” was met with criticism for several reasons. The Young Money femcee had to apologize for the track’s cover art that featured the image of Malcolm X, but she also caught hate from some fellas for her verbal take down of men on the cut.
Now, R&B star Trey Songz has created his own version of Nicki’s “Lookin A** N***a” called “Look At Yall.” On the remix, the Virginia singer calls out women who are only out for money. Trey also expresses his belief that there is a difference between “b*tches” and “ladies.”

The free downloads will only be available from Friday, February 14th at 11 a.m. EST until Saturday, February 15th at noon EST.
“It’s about allowing our fans who have been looking and trying to get a hold of our music to have access to it,” De La’s Posdnuos told Rolling Stone. “It’s been too long where our fans haven’t had access to everything. This is our way of showing them how much we love them.”
The group is also finishing their album You’re Welcome. The set is expected to drop before the summer with another project in the works as well.
“We have tons of music, but we’re our own worst critics,” explains Pos on the delay of their next LP. “The album is still called You’re Welcome, but we also have this whole other album that we’re working on that…Wooo, I wish I could talk about it.”
(AllHipHop News) It appears YMCMB flagship artist Lil Wayne may be attempting to pull off a Beyoncé and drop his next album out of nowhere. According to LilWayneHQ, Cash Money Records Vice President of Promotion Mel Smith revealed that Wayne is “very close” to dropping the fifth installment in his Carter series.
We’re very close to dropping the album. It’s going to be a huge surprise to everyone, it’s an incredible album… I can’t release the date because he wants to surprise people, he wants his true fan base to get excited but he’s worked extremely hard on it and you won’t be disappointed.
He’s one of the artists like Prince who just continues to record. He does it for the love of the art, for the record, he continues to work hard to top himself, like when he does the I Am Not A Human Being records that he’s, which are a little more rock and roll tangent, a little more pop tangent while Tha Carter V is a little more Lil Wayne getting it to you straight from New Orleans.
There have been hints that C5 may be on the way in the near future. Young Money’s Drake sent out a tweet recently that just simply read “Carter V.”
In the meantime, Young Money is set to drop their next compilation album Rise Of An Empire on March 11. The collection will feature appearances by Wayne, Drake, Nicki Minaj, Tyga, and other members of YM.
Terrace Martin is so much more than just a beat maker and rapper. He is a trained musician whose love for jazz and the art of live performance allow him to be a producer and recording artist in the truest sense of the words. Martin’s appreciation for all kinds of music has given him a musical palette that’s far more diverse than that of his contemporaries. And while he is best-known for Hip-Hop material, Martin’s rich musical history also includes work with R&B singer Lalah Hathaway and gospel choir, God’s Property.
In a recent conversation with AllHipHop.com, Terrace Martin discussed, among other things, Kendrick Lamar, his upcoming project with Snoop Dogg, and how a recently retired talk show host was a supporter of him early in his career.
He is a humble guy, and that’s fine. Martin even said, “You can print this. The biggest ego in the room should be the music.” So even if Terrace Martin’s name isn’t as well-known to the public as Kanye West’s, it doesn’t matter. His music speaks for itself. And that is why Martin’s music will continue to be in high demand for as long as he chooses to keep making it.
AllHipHop.com: Considering your working relationship with Kendrick Lamar, I’d certainly be remiss to not ask you for your thought about him walking away empty-handed on Grammy night recently.
Terrace Martin: I didn’t feel he got robbed. I was right there right next to him. I feel like Macklemore won. The Grammy award is a very prestigious cool award to get, but a Grammy Award doesn’t make you who you are musically. It’s voted on by a group of people, but at the end of the day Macklemore did a great job. It’s like champions for different kinds of people, and Kendrick is still a champion in his own right. It’s all good for Macklemore. We f*** with Macklemore and the whole crew and everything.
AllHipHop.com: Early in your career, the late jazz drummer Billy Higgins took you under his wing. What’s the greatest lesson you learned from him that you still carry with you today?
Terrace Martin: Fellowship. He was all about the fellowship of musicians and the fellowship of people. And he was all about the fellowship of the artist(s) and people who enjoy the art. Whenever I’m on tour, whoever I’m with- whether it be Snoop, Kendrick, I kind of fellowship with the local musicians. And also each one, teach one. Find somebody that’s young, grab them up and show them what you’ve heard that they may need to know, because they may not have the same opportunities that you have.
AllHipHop.com: How do you feel the relationship between Jazz and Hip-Hop has evolved?
Terrace Martin: I think it’s a beautiful thing. Jazz is the grandfather to Hip-Hop. There wouldn’t be Hip-Hop if there wasn’t Jazz. Period. I look at it as being the same, either it’s good or it’s bad. Just like Dizzy Gillespie said, “Hip-Hop is nothing more than the new Be-Bop.” Everything should work together and I’m happy everything is working together.
AllHipHop.com: Were you pleased with the response to your album, 3ChordFold?
Terrace Martin: I was very pleased. I’m still pleased. It’s a smart record. Smart meaning the sound is excellent, the music is good, the master is cool, and the artists are in place. And it’s a slow road because I’m extremely independent all the way. Every dime is mine; every push is mine. And at least for me being a musician, producer, or whatever else, I’m still grinding it out. I put out 3ChordFold the album, after that I put out 3ChordFold Remixed , the next one coming out is 3ChordFold Live and More with me, Thunder Cat, Robert Glasper, and special guests. I’m not sure when it’s coming out, but I’m trying to push for the end of February, top of March. And then after the live version, I’m doing 3ChordFold Remixed Part II. I’m really gonna work the 3ChordFold thing for the whole rest of the year because as an independent artist I feel, as independent artists, we come off these projects too fast.
AllHipHop.com: Any other thoughts or plans to do another solo album in the future?
Terrace Martin: I am (planning on it), but I’m not ready yet. Right now, me and 9th Wonder are 85% done with the album that we’re doing together. And I also just started out the album that I’m doing with me, Snoop Dogg, and Robert Glasper. It’s gonna be that Snoop Dogg s**t over live s**t, and the live s**t is gonna be gangsta too. It’s gonna be live, like real s**t being played with Snoop doing that fly s**t he does on top of it. And I’m still working with Kendrick, we just cut an amazing record. Oh my God, I can’t talk too much about it, but whoa!
AllHipHop.com: How does your production process differ when you are making music for yourself compared to other artists?
Terrace Martin: I’m a lot harder on myself than other artists are on me. I set a standard. I’m still studying Quincy Jones records. I’m still studying Miles Davis and John Coltrane. I’m still studying Hi-Tek. I’m still studying Dilla. I have a huge, vivid imagination and so sometimes I hear voices, like I’ll hear Miles Davis sayin, “That’s bulls**t” or Quincy saying, “Let’s be serious about the music.” I’m my own worst critic.
AllHipHop.com: Break down the story of how you got the attention of Jay Leno and he gave you that scholarship.
Terrace Martin: Jay Leno had a scholarship foundation from here [California] to New York City for all the best young musicians. I was already going up to the Jay Leno show as a fan of Jay Leno and a fan of the house band. There was a saxophone player at that particular time named Ralph Moore. Ralph Moore was a Canadian saxophone player. He is still my favorite saxophone player. I would always go to the show when I should have been in school. Anyway, I caught the eye of Jay Leno talking to Ralph through the years. Then when it came time to audition for that spot (for the scholarship). I practiced and I did it. I impressed them and they gave me a scholarship and I ended up going to CalArts with the scholarship. And they bought me a King Super 20 saxophone which was my favorite saxophone at the time. I got that horn gold-plated too. Jay was a huge early supporter of my career.
AllHipHop.com: Is there anything else you want to add?
Terrace Martin: I want to congratulate a few people for winning Grammys, like there’s a band called Snarky Puppy that my older brother is in. They won a Grammy and if anybody can look them up on YouTube- this is the best thing in the world. I can’t say the word “robbed” at the Grammys because one part of the Grammys is for the live musician. So I can’t down the Grammys because they also represent a whole movement that I’m in also- this live music thing and being an instrumentalist and we don’t get recognized at all. So I think the fact that Snarky Puppy got the Grammy this year and Robert Glasper got the Grammy last year- that’s the positive side to that. We’ll be back next year for the Grammys, but be on the lookout for the record with me, Robert Glasper, and Snoop Dogg, and the one with me and 9th Wonder.

(AllHipHop News) Sean “Diddy” Combs has used his celebrity to sell everything from clothes to vodka, and now the Bad Boy Entertainment founder is partnering with FIAT Brand North America to sell the Italian-based company’s new 500L vehicle.
“Given the huge role that both pop culture and music play for the FIAT brand, the opportunity to work with Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs on ‘Mirage’ made as much sense as taking water into the desert,” said Olivier Francois, Fiat Group Automobiles Head of FIAT Brand. “Like the Fiat 500L, Sean has shown the ability to think unbelievably big, as evidenced recently by the launch of REVOLT.”
Diddy appears in a new commercial for the FIAT 500L “Mirage” campaign. The ad features Pharrell Williams’ Oscar-nominated song “Happy” and the tagline “Unbelievably Big.”
“The Fiat 500L is a great addition to our portfolio and is expanding our brand’s presence in the U.S. Market,” said Head of FIAT brand North America Jason Stoicevich. “With two more doors, comfortable accommodations for five and 42 percent more interior space than our regular 500, the Fiat 500L offers the modern Italian style that our customers love while adding new levels of flexibility comfort and convenience to fit their active lifestyle.”

(AllHipHop News) Drake is no longer doing interviews with magazines and Kanye West may now only doing radio interviews if he is the only one talking. At the Yeezus tour stop in University Park, PA at the Bryce Jordan Center, Kanye went on an on-stage rant effectively telling Charlamagne and Sway to “Shut the f*ck up.”
After stating that “If I got to a radio interview. Shut the f*ck up” to a raucous crowd, the man self-proclaimed Yeezus aimed his diatribe at two direct targets:
Everybody that be writing that sh*t to diss me and talk sh*t. What the f*ck did you did? What have you done with the past ten years of your motherf*cken life, Charlamagne..Sway! F*ck you did.
(AllHipHop News) Five years ago, Drake debuted the most influential mixtape of the past five years on his personal website Octobers Very Own. Five years after that release and he is once again posting on the blogsite, this time to clarify and elucidate his feelings towards the controversy around his Rolling Stone comments.
After news of his Rolling Stone comments about Yeezus, Drake sent a series of critical tweets at the magazine and called them “pure evil” for replacing his scheduled cover for that of the late Phillip Seymour Hoffman. According to Drake’s statement, he was not perturbed with Rolling Stone replacing his cover with that of the late legendary actor but because he was not given the option to release it later:
They ran the issue without giving me a choice to be in it or not. I would have waited until it was my time because I understand the magnitude of the cover they chose but I just wasn’t given that option and that made me feel violated.
Drake has deleted the tweet referencing Phillip Seymour Hoffman’s cover replacing his and apologized later in the statement. Drake did not address his comments about Kanye West’s Yeezus, Macklemore or Fabolous in the statement.
Rolling Stone has not released a statement regarding Drake’s comments.
Check out Drake’s full statement below:
With today being the 5th anniversary of So Far Gone I figured it’s fitting to return to it’s place of its origin in order to clear the air about an extremely emotional day. I completely support and agree with Rolling Stone replacing me on the cover with the legendary Phillip Seymour Hoffman. He is one of the most incredible actors of our time and a man that deserves to be immortalized by this publication. My frustration stemmed from the way it was executed. The circumstances at hand are completely justifiable (on the magazines behalf), but I was not able to salvage my story or my photos and that was devastating. They ran the issue without giving me a choice to be in it or not. I would have waited until it was my time because I understand the magnitude of the cover they chose but I just wasn’t given that option and that made me feel violated. I apologize to anybody who took my initial comments out of context because in no way would I ever want to offend the Hoffman family or see myself as bigger than that moment. I am still the same person. Today I was forced out of my character and felt the need to react swiftly. These days are the worst ones. Waking up after a great night in the studio and it’s your day to be picked apart. After dwelling on it for a few hours or days you will come to the conclusion that you brought it on yourself almost every time. So here I am having that moment. I once again apologize to everybody who took my cover comments the wrong way. I respect Rolling Stone for being willing to give a kid from Toronto a shot at the cover. I guess this is a day to learn and grow.
It looks like Lil Kim’s baby daddy has revealed himself to be none other than:
This dude is apparently Lil Kim’s ex-boy friend, Mr. Papers. I thought they would have still been together if they were going to make a baby. Anyway, they have history.
And here is a video they did.
CONGRATS TO THE COUPLE….
I smell a great reality show.

(AllHipHop News) Nicki Minaj has expressed her views on the brewing controversy of the album art on “Lookin’ A** N***a,” which presents Malcolm X as the featured picture.
On Instagram, Nicki said the following:
What seems to be the issue now? Do you have a problem with me referring to the people Malcolm X was ready to pull his gun out on as Lookin Ass N#####? Well, I apologize. That was never the official artwork nor is this an official single. This is a conversation. Not a single. I am in the video shooting at Lookin Ass N##### and there happened to be an iconic photo of Malcolm X ready to do the same thing for what he believed in!!!! It is in no way to undermine his efforts and legacy. I apologize to the Malcolm X estate if the meaning of the photo was misconstrued. The word “n####” causes so much debate in our community while the “n####” behavior gets praised and worship. Let’s not. Apologies again to his family. I have nothing but respect an adoration for u. The photo was removed hours ago. Thank you.”
It might be a case of too little too late, as a new boycott has arisen over Nicki Minaj’s use of Malcolm X’s image.
The image, which has offended thousands, was on Nicki Minaj’s Instagram account, but the situation continues to draw ire.
Eventually, the image was taken down, but not before thousands of disparaging comments were posted on a number of social media outlets.
Now, Kevin Powell’s BK Nation and former U.S. vice presidential candidate Rosa Clemente have jump started separate boycotts that takes the Young Money rapper to task.
Clemente said in a statement, “Let’s stop Nicki Minaj, Young Money and their record labels from dishonoring the life and contributions of one of the greatest leaders of the 20th century. I am asking anyone who is a lover of HIP HOP culture and who respects Black history to please sign this petition and force Nicki, Young Money and their record levels to take this down immediately. We cannot allow this to happen. As well please pledge not to buy ANY of their products and or work with them.”
Her letter was posted at the following link with a petition for fans to sign.
Kevin Powell’s BK Nation protest spoke similar sentiments, but also spoke to the content of the song as well.
“The song is bad enough: a berating assault—laced with the n-word, in hideous quantities—on men who don’t spend money on her; complaints about men staring at her assets even as her whole video is a pathetic display of such assets; a reduction of all male-female relationships to dollar signs.”
In the statement, he also took time to educate fans on the real reason Malcolm X was looking out of the window in the iconic image.
“Malcolm X carried a gun as he feared for the safety of his family and himself, and was aware he would some day be killed by political opponents. The image of Malcolm X looking out the window highlighted that fear. Nicki Minaj’s use of guns in her new music video speaks to the gun culture in our society today where gun violence is an acceptable norm.”
A number of op ed pieces have been written, most of which raise questions on whether or not the rapper is disrespecting the famous activist leader.
Get Loaded- Doughbeezy, Paul Wall, Fiend, Mookie Jones (P###. By Rapid Ric ) is the newest release from Intervention Episode 2 from Rapid Ric, TrakkSounds, and Thafixx.com. IEP2 drops March 4th and a new track will be released every week until the drop date.
(AllHipHop Interviews) Six years ago a rapper, drug dealer, and pimp named Mark Felder hit rock bottom when he found himself sleeping in his car. It was at that point that Felder says God broke him down and then eventually put the pieces of his life back together. The result of that experience was a man who was willing to turn his life completely over to the Lord, and the faith-based emcee named Bizzle was born again.
Bizzle has released numerous projects since 2008. His 2013 album The Good Fight included production by Boi-1da and a guest feature from No Malice, but it was his recent response to Macklemore & Ryan Lewis’ pro-gay rights song “Same Love” that started a firestorm.
People on both sides of the gay marriage debate strongly voiced their opinion about the God Over Money founder’s single with some championing his right to freedom of speech and others calling the song homophobic, hateful, and disturbing.
Bizzle connected with AllHipHop.com to speak about his controversial “Same Love (A Response)” and the reactions it has received. He also addresses religious imagery in Hip Hop, what he views as rappers being used to promote the gay agenda, and whether homosexuality is a condition that can be cured.
Macklemore and Ryan Lewis released their version of “Same Love” in 2012. Why did you decide to release your response last month?
I know the song is old. I thought it would fall off and disappear once they put out new material, but I saw the media keep trying to breathe life into the record and turning into a “gay anthem.” I think [Macklemore and Ryan Lewis’] Grammy Awards [performance] was the last straw.
I feel like we have conversations behind closed doors, but everybody’s afraid to speak, because nobody wants to be labeled a bigot, homophobic, or full of hate. I got tired of walking on egg shells. There has to be an opposing side. The media can’t make people afraid to disagree.
What’s your response to those people who say your “Same Love” response track is homophobic?
I’d ask how? As far as I see, disagreement automatically means homophobic. I don’t believe that. You would have to really show me what I said that leads you to believe that I’m scared of you which is what a homophobe is.
You made a reference in the song about rappers that promote the “gay agenda.” Which rappers do you feel are doing that?
The biggest one who co-signed gay marriage was Jay Z. I would say he’s at the top of Hip Hop, and if you wanted to push something to Black people that would be who you’d take anything through. Just because he’s powerful. Also, anybody you’ve seen in a skirt – A$AP Rocky. Anybody who they’ve put on a platform and made them say, “this is just like what we went through.”
That was another point you made in the song, the idea that the gay struggle should not be compared to the Black struggle. Do you dismiss the entire idea of equal rights for the LGBT community?
No, not at all. They should get the rights that married people get as far as tax breaks, but if your right to marry violates the pastor’s right to not marry you because of his religion, then I can’t be for this right against that right.
Also, I know that gay people suffered. A lot of people seem to think that I’m just disregarding any of gay people’s struggle, and that’s not what I’m doing. What I’m saying is don’t compare them. I don’t compare slavery to the Holocaust. Don’t compare this to that, because the moment you start comparing similarities, then you make it okay for me to compare the differences. I do believe there are differences.
Which would be what in your opinion?
I don’t believe people are born gay, though I do believe we all are born with temptations. But, a child born Black in that time period, from day one had the world against them. If a child is born gay, we won’t even know until about six or seven. At this point now, the punishment is far worse if you commit a hate crime. Back then not only was it not a hate crime, you could murder us for fun. It was in the law that we were only three-fifths of a person. I think that the level of oppression was a lot different.
You said that you don’t believe people are born gay. Do you think it’s a condition that can be fixed? Do you think someone can stop being gay?
I know a few people who’ve been delivered from homosexuality. The thing is, if I tell a homosexual that they say, “they’ve just been brainwashed or tricked into believing that it’s not normal.” I know a good three or four people who’ve been fully delivered, and it was by God so if you’re not a Christian you probably won’t believe it.
There was another part of your song that got a lot of reaction. That’s when you made the comparison between homosexuals and pedophiles. Do you believe that a gay sexual act between consenting adults is the same as a pedophile having sex with children?
What I’m saying is, before the pedophile ever touches a child his desires are already disgusting to the homosexual. They hit me like, “I’m disgusted you would compare me to that.” I have yet to meet anyone who could give me a reason that the pedophile cannot use. Whether it’s “born this way.” Whether it’s “I didn’t choose this.”
If you’re not a Christian, a lot people say the Bible’s outdated. They throw our laws away. Well, if that’s the case the pedophile can say, “your laws are outdated, and girls are having sex at twelve these days, so let’s throw your laws away.” I’ve yet to hear anybody use an excuse that the pedophile can’t also use. I’m talking before he’s even touches a child he’s still disgusting to you, but if I say your desire is disgusting to me I’m wrong. My obligation is to not only love the gay person. It’s to also love the pedophile even if I don’t agree with what he does.
I think some would argue that the difference is that one is between two consenting adults and the other is an adult taking advantage of a child.
There are pedophiles who don’t act on their desires, but if he told you that he wants to, even if he doesn’t, you still look at him with disgust. At that point the argument for him touching a child is irrelevant, because he hasn’t done it. Even if he’s sought help, he’s still disgusting to you.
I’m talking at the desire level, not on the acting level. At the desire level I feel like they’re in the same boat. You say one is between two consenting adults, well, there are different countries that have different laws where 16 might be the consenting age. I’m not for the pedophile. What I’m saying is how do you get to throw out the Bible and say that law is outdated, but he has to stick to your law that says 14 is not old enough? That’s the argument he can make, based on the argument you’re making.
You have Kanye West’s Yeezus. You have A$AP Mob about to drop their L.O.R.D. album. There have been a lot of religious references in Hip Hop recently like J. Cole’s Born Sinner and The Game’s Jesus Piece. What is your take on Hip Hop’s use of religious imagery?
I don’t rock with it when it’s used out of context. I definitely can’t support it. Sometimes people use it and have a righteous thought behind it, but when it’s used for mockery I don’t rock with it at all. If I decide, when I’m writing, to put in a rhyme about something that you feel mocked by, then they should honor that same freedom of speech that gave them the right to do that with the Lord’s name.
Would you ever consider collaborating with an openly gay artist?
It depends on what the topic is about. If he’s pushing a message that’s contrary to mine – that would be for anybody – I wouldn’t rock with any artist I feel stands for everything I’m against. But, if he wanted to talk about his struggle, I’d get on there and talk about mine. Of course I’ll pray on it like I do anything else.
Ultimately, what would you like to see happen as far as the gay community’s role in the media and entertainment?
I’d like to see an opposing view be honored and respected. I want to see the manipulation come to an end. I always say when a dude tells a female if you don’t have sex with me you don’t love me; that’s manipulation. Of course when a dude is telling a female that, he doesn’t feel that way, but if a dude was telling his daughter that he would definitely feel that way. I feel the same when the media pushes: if you don’t agree with me then you hate me, but if you love me then you have to agree with what I do. That’s manipulation as well, and I’m not with the manipulation.
