“Hublot, my watch better” – Pusha T (“I Don’t Like)
The strong correlation between music, fashion, and style is quite solid. Many luxury bands have become the love child of some of the biggest influencers there are. Hublot, which thrives off the mission of bringing the art of fusion to watches, has found a perfect fit in the entertainment world. A look isn’t exactly complete without that added link; in this case it’s a sexy, quality, and timeless watch. The lavish line of exquisite timepieces emerged in 1980. They currently have flagship stores in a few major cities in the United States, and are available all over the world.
From the likes of Jay-Z and Rick Ross sporting them, to brand ambassadors such Jet Li and Usain Bolt, and even most recently, Ludacris’ custom made birthday watch from the company, Hublot and entertainment seem to have struck a chord. Hublot even made special appearances in Kanye and Jay’s “Otis” video.
On the sports end, Dwayne Wade is not only a brand ambassador too, but presented his championship team and leaders in the organization with custom-made “White Hot Hublot Big Bang” watches. It was engraved with a special team championship lock on the back of the case. And, Hublot is reportedly the official watch and timekeeper of the Miami Heat.
The entertainment and urban world is known for giving luxury an extra kick. This seems to be no different. Hublot appreciates and respects the power of the Hip-Hop generation.
States Rick de la Croix, president of Hublot Latin America, “The urban community is trend setters and leaders in making brands happen; it’s been proven with cars, luxury fashion, and liquor. There are so many cases where the leaders of the community have made brands global successes. Today with Hublot it is no different. Thanks to our close relationship with mega artists such as Jay-Z and Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, as well as top sporting personalities – notably Dwayne Wade – the demand for Hublot has soared. This has also resulted in the opening of a boutique in the Mecca of Music, Atlanta,”
Look out for more verses, endorsements, and fan favorites with an eye-catching Hublot piece.
“We get as much influence from the urban community as they get from the brand, be it in music or lifestyle, and the desire and need to continue to be different and unique,” de la Croix adds.
There’s always a staple accessory needed in anyone’s wardrobe, and always a brand to watch for. Hublot is undeniably the one to keep a close eye on. To get yours, visit www.Hublot.com.

(AllHipHop News) Corporate Thugz Entertainment MC Freddie Gibbs has officially set a release date for his first Gangsta Grillz mixtape, Baby Faced Killa.
According to Datpiff.com, Gibbs will release the free project on September 25. The only tracks confirmed for the street album are the Dana Williams-featured “The Hard” and Kirko Bangz-assisted “Bout It Bout.”
Back in April, the “Baby Faced Killa” gave hiphopchronicle.com an update on the mixtape, and expressed how excited he was to have the Gangsta Grillz brand on his music.
“Shout out to DJ Drama for even allowing me to add to the Gangsta Grillz brand,” said Gibbs. “It’s one thing I always wanted to do. I’m glad I’m doing it now instead of waiting for before. The music that I’m making now is really about to make an impact. It’s all about timing with me. I’m glad I’m doing it now because it’s going to be the best one.”

(AllHipHop News) Yesterday Baton Rouge, Louisiana rapper Lil Webbie was arrested on charges of battery and robbery.
According to reports, “Savage Life” rapper is accused of attacking a woman inside the Chase Suite Hotel at approximately 2:30 AM.
Police reports filed say Webbie is accused of attacking a woman after being banned from the area where the altercation occured.
In the report, the woman who Webbie met the night before in a club, accuses Webbie kicking her down several flights of stairs before taking her purse and over $300 in cash.
Webbie was released yesterday on $9,000 bond, and plans to fight the claims that he says are false accusations.
It has been a trying year for Webbie after his Trill Entertainment labelmate Lil Phat was gunned down earlier this year in a parking garage in Atlanta, and his other labelmate Lil Boosie was fighting against a life sentence which he eventually beat.
More news as details emerge.
Whether it’s serving up jokes on “The Rickey Smiley Morning Show” every weekday morning, or delivering some of the most clever punchlines in Hip-Hop with his group, The Bodega Brovas, or even on his solo music projects, Headkrack has yet again stepped up his game and is dishing out the laughs on the new TV show “Dish Nation.”
Check out AllHipHop.com’s interview with one of the busiest men in entertainment, Headkrack:
AllHipHop.com: Thanks for taking some time out to talk to us, Headkrack – we know you are crazy busy right now! So, tell us about this new project, “Dish Nation”, that you’re working on. How did you come up with the idea, and who all is involved with the project?
Headkrack: “Dish Nation” is a new show put together by a guy name Stu Weiss, who has a great relationship with Fox and its subsidiaries, and they take five different morning shows and let us put an ill spin on Pop Culture stories.
AllHipHop.com: So, it’s being syndicated then…
Headkrack: Yup! We’re on in like more than 90 percent of the country. Plus, we have viral clips on the web, too.
AllHipHop.com: How long have you been thinking on making the jump from radio to TV?
Headkrack: I’ve always wanted to do TV; I just had no idea it would be in this format. I always saw myself hosting a “Yo! MTV Raps” type show, but this definitely works. And it’s pretty def, ’cause I get to go to work and do two jobs at the same time.
AllHipHop.com: When can people expect to catch “Dish Nation” on their own TVs?
Headkrack: It varies from city to city, but you can peep DishNation.com to check the times and channels in your city.
AllHipHop.com: What are you most proud of with this show?
Headkrack: I’m proud that I can go on TV as a representative of the Hip-Hop culture, and kick that educated, slick isht that I’m capable of kicking, and I get to do a freestyle segment every Friday. All off the dome.
AllHipHop.com: What has been the hardest part of this transition?
Headkrack: I have a very dark sense of humor, and some of the stuff that flies on the radio doesn’t necessarily play well while ya moms is cooking dinner. So it’s pretty much about me finding my comfortable danger zone and keeping the vibe right.
AllHipHop.com: Besides the cameras, what has been the biggest thing to get used to during this transition from radio to TV?
Headkrack: On the radio, it doesn’t matter what you look like, but TV is way less forgiving. Beard gotta be crisp, my gym game gotta stay steady, and you gotta ham it up a notch for the cameras. Easy game. I’m ready to play it.
AllHipHop.com: You have mastered print, radio, music, now TV. Is there anything left for Headkrack to conquer?
Headkrack: In life, you never master anything. You can get good at it, but masters are always eventually overthrown. I’m spinning a few wheels right now to see which one will keep a ski-mask off my face and get my bills paid. I’m trying to conquer hearts and minds. I want to be loved.
AllHipHop.com: Where can people keep up with both you and the new project, sir?
Headkrack: On the music side, The Bodega Brovas are still cooking that heat. We don’t sell cocaine, so it takes us a minute to finance the things we want to do. See us at BodegaBrovas.com. As of recently, I’ve been galvanizing my stories of late night partying, travel, and debauchery to complete my solo works. Both endeavors will remind you why you gravitated towards Hip-Hop to begin with. Like me on Facebook.com/Headkrack. Chase me on Twitter.com/headkrack.

So, last night Funky Flex dropped a bomb on the new Fabolous song and its called “So NY.” And in it, he seemed to have some worlds for the lil one from YMCMB. “I’m so New York Weezy probably don’t like me,” he says repeatedly after a verse that speaks on a number of matters. He refers to gun charges and whatnot. You should just listen for yourself. Its definitely a small time thing. Wondering if Wayne regrets saying he doesn’t like the birthplace of Hip-Hop.
THIS IS GETTING STRANGER!

ARE 50 AND FLOYD PLAYING “ART OF WAR” WITH MANNY?
We all know by now that 50 Cent and Floyd Mayweather are suddenly not friends. According to 50 Cent, this is because Floyd some how changed while he was in the BING. But he was only in the bing for a second. I thought it maybe that 50 Cent didn’t like Floyd’s clothing or that he was hanging out with another rapper?
Anyway! Uhmmmmmmm….maybe it is something else?
Somebody that is a boxing insider said that these dudes are playing a chess game with Manny Pacquiao in the form of acting like they are enemies! It sounds outrageous, but that’s what I hear. Yep. 50 Cent is seemingly creeping his way into Manny’s camp as a sleeper cell!!!!! I don’t know for a fact, but it just seems odd that 50 Cent and Money May would just break up like that. That was one bromance that I thought would last! Damn! They were great!!!! Manny and 50 just ain’t the same.

(AllHipHop News) DMX is flying high off of the release of his seventh studio album, Undisputed, which was released to the masses on Tuesday, September 11.
In an exclusive interview with AllHipHop.com, DMX goes off on YMCMB rapper Drake for not including the producers that Aaliyah worked with while she was alive on her upcoming posthumous album, which Drake is executive producing alongside producer Noah “40” Shebib.
“It just show what I said, [Drake’s] a f*cking piece of sh*t,” DMX told AllHipHop.com. “Motherf*cker, you didn’t even know this woman; you were in middle school.
“What the f*ck gives you the f*cking right? Allow Aaliyah to live on and not include the people she always worked with, not include the recipe.”
DMX worked with Aaliyah closely on music and in movies and believes that Drake is disrespecting her legacy by not working with the producers that Aaliyah was known to work with.
“It’s like saying, ‘I’m going to make KFC and not using the Colonel recipe.’ That ain’t KFC, n*gga, that’s ‘Your F-C’, your f*cking chicken. That’s some bullsh*t; it ain’t the same sh*t,” DMX continued.
“It’s wrong, honor her legacy, honor what she did. You don’t have no right to make it yours. If you’re going to allow it to live on, do it in a manner that honors what she did. Respectfully.
“I don’t have any say so in it, but at the end of the day, I’m going to voice my opinion, because you can’t f*cking beat me.”
Check out the clip below where DMX voices his disagreement with Drake not consulting Aaliyah’s main producers for her new record:
(AllHipHop News) The newest acquisition to the Maybach Music Group (MMG) roster, Rockie Fresh, has been traveling the country recently on his first headlining tour, “The Electric HighWay.” After having released his highly successful mixtape, Driving 88, things have accelerated for the up-and-comer out of Chicago, who asks others to “pray” for his city that is currently in the heat of controversy and violence.
Rockie Fresh took a moment to speak with AllHipHop.com during his tour stop in Miami recently about his new deal with MMG, and how much hospitality even the parent label, Warner Bros., has shown.
“Signing with Ross was crazy; it was a blessing,” Rockie Fresh told AllHipHop.com. “We’re going to make history. It’s a major platform having that major label support from Warner and Maybach Music Group. They’ve been holding me down even in the really early stages. It’s better resources; I can finally build my sound quality. We ’bout to turn up.”

Rockie Fresh says he is here to lead by example. A big fan of Alternative Rock, he sampled Coldplay on his recent release. “I like Alternative Rock more than I listen to other stuff,” said Rockie. “That record inspired me – “Square One” – so I sampled it. I’m going to keep sampling stuff like that, too, ’cause it really inspires. I wanna put some rap fans onto some sh*t they didn’t know about.”
