(AllHipHop News) Lil Wayne has had a pretty rough 2013 so far, but he’s looking to turn it around when he drops his 10th studio album I Am Not A Human Being II. The Young Money rapper took one step closer to his next release when he revealed the tracklist for the LP this weekend.

IANAHB II will feature Wayne’s Cash Money labelmates Gudda Gudda, Drake and Nicki Minaj. There will also be songs with contributions from 2 Chainz, Soulja Boy, Gunplay, Juicy J, and Big Sean on the previously released “My Homies Still.”

Wayne’s current single “B###### Love Me” featuring Drake and Future (which broke into the top 10 on the singles chart last week) will also be on the album.

The Young Money leader previously unveiled the cover art for I Am Not A Human Being II back in January of this year. The artwork was created by Kanye West’s design company DONDA.

I Am Not A Human Being II will be released on March 26th by Cash Money/Young Money-Universal.

(AllHipHop News) The theme song to legendary 1990’s sitcom “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” caused panic in a Western Pennsylvania town earlier this week.

All schools in Beaver County in Ambridge, Pennsylvania were locked down on Thursday (February 28), after a line from the sitcom’s theme song was mistaken as a threat.

The bizarre incident began when a receptionist for a local eye doctor’s office called a 19-year-old student’s phone.

Travis Clawson’s greeting featured him imitating the line from “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” theme that says “shooting some B-ball outside of school.”

The receptionist thought Clawson said “shooting people outside of the school.”

The receptionist called local police, who contacted administrators at Ambridge High School.

When Clawson could not be located, local police issued a countywide lockdown of all schools in the district.

Clawson was later found in the guidance a guidance counselor’s office in Ambridge High School.

Police “swarmed” Clawson and took him into custody. The teen said he meant no harm when he was imitating Will Smith.

Local District Attorney Anthony Berosh confirmed that Clawson was imitating the rap song, and was released without being charged.

Clawson was however, encouraged to change his message.

Hip-Hop Collective Rebel Diaz Gets “Unjustifiably Violent” Eviction and Raid from South Bronx Home

By: Keith Nelson Jr (@JusAire) Updated Category: MOBILE

(AllHipHop News) Hip-Hop’s  birthplace continues to be altered, after a local community center is raided and evicted by surprise.

The Rebel Diaz Art’s Collective (RDACBX) of the South Bronx had their warehouse turned art space on 478 Austin Place reduced to scraps Thursday (February 28) after lease negotiations fell through.

New Rochelle real estate company Austin Property Corp allegedly attempted to stall those negotiations, after RDACBX’s lease expired.

According to DNAinfo, the landlord and RDACBX constantly clashed over unauthorized graffiti on the building and complaints from building tenants.

Allegedly, the collective protested a rent increase from $1,400 to $2,400 by refusing to pay the rent, even though they claim some payments were rejected. As a result, six months of back rent piled up and the landowner took action.

According to a press release from RDACBX,  a previous participant, 19-year-old Karen Louviere, claims the raid methods were unjustifably violent.

“They came in with armed guards officers into what is supposed to be a safe space for the community.” RDACBX’s co-founder RodStarz hinted at a more conspiratorial reason for the surprise eviction:

“In a time where budget cuts, stop and frisk, and gentrification are affecting our communities, it’s a shame we are being treated like criminals. There is no justification for this eviction.”

An emergency press conference/rally was scheduled yesterday at 6pm at the location of the fallen community center.

RDACBX were responsible for numerous events which promoted cultural awareness and promoted local artists. One of the events included  South by South Bronx, a flip on the popular music event South by South West (SxSW) and featured talks from Hip Hop pioneers such as Grandmaster Caz and rising stars such as Mysonne.

This eviction is being treated as an unfortunate holdup and not an insurmountable obstacle to achieve certain goals such as the planned creation of the Richie Perez Radical Library in dedication to the late Puerto Rican human rights activist.

“Despite the violent removal of RDACBX from its space, RDACBX will continue to work on its development, as it strives to be a resource for the community. There is a need for this organization to exist in The South Bronx,” says Claudia De La Cruz, a member of RDACBX

Hip-Hop Rumors: Will They Cancel American Idol? And Guess Who They Will Blame?

Keeping it real, I have not watched American Idol one time this season. I used to watch it from beginning to end. Then, I’d watch just the trials and foolishness. But, this year….nada. I think I am part of the problem that the show is experiencing. Even though the added the busty Mariah (who reportedly had a freaking DOUBLE NIP SLIP recently) and the bootiyful Nicki Minaj (who treated us all to her thongy backside on V-Day) ratings for American Idol are at an all time American low. Why? This is the third week in a row that the ratings have gone down. IT has sparked rumors that the show may get nixed. Some also speculate that they may be blaming Nicki for the decline. Not sure the reasoning behind that, but somebody has to take the rap. Why not the rapper?

What they want Nicki to do, Playboy?

Hip-Hop Rumors: Is Lil Twist Driving Justin Bieber’s Car Crazy Again?

Remember what happened before right?

RELATED STORY: LIL TWIST WAS DRIVING WHEN THAT DUDE GOT HIT BY THAT CAR

According to TMZ, he’s at it again!

Peep the report:

Justin Bieber needs to rethink loaning his car out to Lil Twist, because his Lil Friend just got another ticket in JB’s Lil Fisker Karma.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … Lil Twist was just pulled over on the 101 Freeway by CHP because he made an unsafe lane change. Deputies cut Lil a break on the lane change but gave him a ticket for tinted windows.

FYI — it’s the same tricked out Fisker Justin was driving when he was racing down the 101 Freeway last year, trying to shake the paparazzi.

And you’ll recall, Lil Twist is the dude who got a ticket in Bieber’s Ferrari on January 1 when a photog was struck and killed while shooting the scene.

JB is in London. He should have taken the keys.

Here are the pictures…I’m thinking Bieber may want to make better decisions before he really gets in some trouble. Messing with YMCMB.
