Joe Budden Previews New Album “No Love Lost”
Last night (January 22) at Chung King Studios in New York City, Joe Budden previewed his new album, No Love Lost, to a studio packed full of journalists and friends who found themselves surrounded by lasers, edible treats and a haze of hookah smoke.
Since the release of his self-titled Def Jam debut in 2003, Joe has released nearly 15 projects, formed Slaughterhouse, one of rap’s respected groups and became a reality star thanks to the VH1 show Love and Hip-Hop.
With all of that in mind, it should come as no surprise that No Love Lost showcases a solo Joe Budden lyrically in top-form, a quality that he associates with growth, maturity and spending countless days in the studio with the likes of Eminem and his Slaughterhouse brethren, Royce Da 5’9″, Crooked I and Joell Ortiz.
The listening event kicked off with the Kirko Bangz-assisted and Mizfitz Soundz-produced record, “Top of the World,” and was followed by the album’s second single, “NBA.”
“NBA” features guest verses from the likes of Wiz Khalifa and French Montana, two artists who are not the conventional collaborators you would imagine when you look at Joey’s catalog from the past, yet hold there own in the most organic way.
The Cardiak-produced “You and I” was next. Joe let the crowd know that the song was originally intended to feature Lloyd but now showcases singer Emanny who has collaborated with Joe many times over the years and is “part of the family.”
The soulful “Castles” was next followed by “All In My Head” which featured Royce Da 5’9″ and singer Kobe. The remaining members of Slaughterhouse got to showcase some of there inaugural verses of the new year on the Frequency-produced “Skeletons.”
Another standout record titled “Ghetto Burbs” followed. The Sean C and LV-produced track once again features Emanny crooning over stellar production from the Grammy Award-nominated duo responsible for hits from the likes of Jay-Z, Clipse, Ghostface Killah and many more.
The listening event showcased other records from No Love Lost like “Switch Positions” featuring Omarion, “Tell Him Somethin,” or the “v##### song” as Joey referred to it, the guitar-infused “Runaway,” and the superbly produced “Last Day” with Juicy J and Lloyd Banks.
Not only is 2013 special to Joe and his fans because of No Love Lost, it also marks the 10-year anniversary of Joe Budden and his first Mood Muzik mixtape. With the filler-free No Love Lost, the New Jersey native has crafted an album that his most hardcore fans will memorize, his newest fans will embrace and Hip-Hop listeners in general will appreciate.
No Love Lost is set for release on February 5th via eOne Music

Hip-Hop Rumors: Floyd Mayweather’s Ex Answers THE Big Questions!
Yesterday, I hit you up with a rumor. Here it is:
Anyway, Ms. Drama was on the case for AllHipHop and asked some questions of Floyd Mayweather’s ex, including the rumors that 50 Cent and Floyd may be more than just best friends. So, Josie Harris took the whole weight. She also suggested strongly that she and Floyd are still intimate even though he’s engaged to be marred to another woman.
“He still calls me to build him up spiritually…to make sure he’s mentally ready for a fight. So, I don’t care how physically fit you are, when you get into that ring, if you’re not mentally prepared and mentally strong and know that you’re a warrior and you cannot be conquered by anybody, that’s something that I was there to give. and I will always give him that. I was his best friend from the beginning. He wants to revert to Dade Counties (his new fiancee), I’ll still be here to hood him down as a friend.”
On the extreme bromance rumors:
“The speculation is just a speculation. I have experience in what Floyd feels like so I know that he is extremely straight.”
Anyway, Josie Harris is on the new show called “Starter Wives Confidential,” which stars Liza Morales (ex-girlfriend of professional basketball player Lamar Odom), Tashera Simmons (separated from hip hop legend DMX), Monica Joseph-Taylor (separated from DJ Funkmaster Flex), Zakia Baum (ex-girlfriend of rapper Maino), and Cheryl Caruso (ex-wife of accused mobster Phil “Philly” Caruso).
By the way, 50 Cent’s ex wasn’t on there and the women wish she could be. 50 is a paperwork G.
Thanks, Ms. Drama!

Here they all are:
Zakia Baum – Jermaine “Maino” Coleman’s ex and mother to his child.

Court Releases Documents on Chief Keef $6 Million Record Deal
(AllHipHop News) A Cook County, Illinois chancery court released information that details Chief Keef’s record contract.
The agreements became public due to the fact that the controversial Chicago rapper is a minor (17-years-old) and thus, his contract needs a judge’s approval.
The three album deal is reportedly worth $6 million, but is incentivized throughout as it is based on record sales and other metrics.
According to DNAinfo.com, Chief Keef reportedly will be given a $440,000 advance, half of which Chief Keef’s legal guardian and Grandmother, Margaret Carter will administer in a trust fund.
In addition, the rapper received over $300,000 to record his project, Finally Rich, which sold 50,000 copies in its first week of sales.
The deal also states that if Keef doesn’t sell at least 250,000 records by December 2013, Interscope reserves the right to drop the subsequent album releases which include two albums and a compilation record.
Chief Keef’s “Glory Boyz Entertainment” also known as GBE, received another $440,000 advance that states that his manager, Rovan Manuel, will be paid at least 180,000.
It also states that 15% of Chief Keef’s advance money will be put in his aforementioned trust fund, although Interscope Records reserves the right to terminate the Glory Boyz deal if Interscope’s losses exceed $4.5 million.
According to the GBE deal, Chief Keef and Rovan Manuel each own 40 percent of the record label, which will be a subsidiary of Interscope.
Also, GBE’s Fredo Santana is to receive $40,000 in advance and received 10-percent interest in the GBE label, while Chief Keef’s uncle Alonzo Carter and Anthony H. Dade also holds 5-percent interest in the GBE’s imprint.
GBE also receives $200,000 for “overhead” expenses associated with offices, travel, entertainment, salary cost and additional money for marketing.
Currently, Chief Keef is in a juvenile detention center for 60 days after he violated his probation in a Pitchfork Media interview last year in New York at a gun range.
Chief Keef will see a judge again on March 14th at which point he may be released from custody.
More news as details emerge.
