By: JP DelaCuesta (@JPdelacuesta)Category: Features

With her new project, The Glory EP, set to be released in the next few weeks, Australia native and Hustle Gang first lady, Iggy Azalea, has a lot to be excited about. When AllHipHop.com spoke to Iggy last week, she set the record straight on all of the rumors claiming she had been dropped by both Grand Hustle honcho T.I. (not true) and Interscope Records (“business is business”).

Before her debut album, The New Classic, finds its way into stores later this year, Iggy has a point to prove – and a chip of sorts on her shoulder. Despite what the naysayers believe, she is Hip-Hop, and she’s going to tell you why. Iggy spoke candidly to AllHipHop.com about making the 2012 Freshman Class for XXL’s March issue, and how things have changed since it hit stands.

Iggy also highlights her plans to continue creating Hip-Hop music despite her dabbling in some other genres recently. Lastly, she speaks on her upcoming Glory EP, and how exactly it came to be in terms of its sound and concept. Check out our exclusive interview with Iggy Azalea below:

Hip-Hop Rumors: Is Trina Trying To Send Lil’ Wayne A Message?

By: ginatorres27Category: Rumors

Rapper Trina let it all hang out in Miami on Monday on the video shoot for her new video for her single, “I’m Back (Back 2 Business)”. The baddest b*tch gathered some of the hottest chicks in Miami, fitted them in booty shorts and bikinis, and hosted a luxury vehicle car wash. Trina and the ladies turned heads as they washed Beamers, Benz and Bentley’s as well as a Ferrari!

Later in the shoot, Trina suited up in a cut out cat suit topped off with a TRUKFIT hat, while she shot a few scenes on a motorcycle. One has to wonder, is Trina trying to send Lil’ Wayne a message with the TRUKFIT hat?

I wonder what her rumored boo, James Harden, thinks about this? Remember it was only a few weeks ago that Harden allegedly did everything in his power to keep Weezy from attending the OKC playoff games. What do you guys think?

In the meantime, enjoy these steaming hot shots from Trina’s video shoot!

Hip-Hop Rumors: What Did Jay-Z Surprise Solange With For Her Birthday?

By: ginatorres27Category: MOBILE

Beyonce’s younger sister Solange turned 26 over the weekend, and her brother-in-law Jay Z and big sis were on hand to make sure Solo had a birthday to remember. First, Beyonce surprised Solange with a helicopter ride over London, that compelled Solange to share a photo of the adventure with her Instagram followers along with the message, “We are family.”

Then, according to the Daily Mirror, at the stroke of midnight, Jay-Z gathered Beyonce, Kanye West, and Rihanna backstage at his BBC Radio 1 Hackney show and led a chorus of ‘Happy Birthday.’ Jigga presented Solange with a cake and champagne and the singer was reportedly really moved by the gesture.

”It was really sweet. Solange hadn’t even noticed that it had turned 12am when Jay got everybody singing together. She was really touched.”

The birthday celebration was a nice way to end a rumored dramatic day for Jay and Bey. According to reports, Beyonce was upset by a ‘fan’ during Jay-Z and Kanye’s performance when the ‘fan’ allegedly began harrasing her and talking badly about her baby girl, Blue Ivy.

A source said, “Whatever was said, it really upset Beyoncé. Jay-Z’s bodyguards weren’t going to have any of it. They waded in and there was a massive ruckus. It got pretty ugly and Beyoncé was whisked away so she wouldn’t get caught in the middle of it.”

That ish cray! Happy belated birthday, Solange!

Hip-Hop Rumors: Romeo Miller May Play A Super Hero – Guess Which One!

By: Chuck Creekmur (@ChuckCreekmur)Category: MOBILE

I don’t know how Andewale Akinnuoye (Adebisi from “Oz”) or Djimon Hounsou will feel about this, but it looks like there is a new candidate for the role of the Black Panther. Now, I don’t mean the militant Civil Rights group of the 60s and even now. I mean the Marvel Comics character from the fictitious African Nation Wakanda. Well, freakin’ Romeo Miller has tossed his hat in the fray as one of the candidates that may play in the live action movie if it ever gets green-lit.

He told some things to BlackFilm.com:


With Marvel possibly doing a film on the Black Panther, is that a role you can see yourself doing?

RM: I would love to. I remember that before Jumping the Broom got released, there were some producers were talking about shopping the script to some people and I was one of the people they contacted and was asked if it was something I would be interested in. You never know. I definitely want to take in and be the next big action hero. That may be something that’s cool.

For the record, the Black Panther is tentative for 2014. For the record, I won’t see a Black Panther with Lil Romeo. No hate. No disrespect. We’ll see.

Sade Discusses Hip-Hop; Regrets Missing Jay-Z On Hit Track ‘Soldier of Love’

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: MOBILE

(AllHipHop News) An official studio collaboration between Jay-Z and singer Sade could take place in the near future.

During an interview with Jay-Z’s blog site Life + Times, Sade revealed her desire to work with one of the world’s top rap artists.

The legendary singer said that missing the opportunity to record with Jay-Z in 2010, was one of her biggest regrets.

“I would have asked Jay-Z to rap on ‘Soldier Of Love’ in 2010. There’s not much else I would change – the mistakes I’ve made have made me grow braver,” Sade said.

Despite numerous requests from rappers, Jay-Z is the only rap artist to officially appear on a track with Sade.

The rap mogul was featured on the remix to the single “The Moon and The Sky,”which was released as a bonus track on 2011’s album The Ultimate Collection.

But just because she has not worked with rap artist in the past, does not mean she does not respect the genre, which has sampled her music often, throughout the years.

“I love when our music is reclaimed to make something new,” Sade continued. “It’s like musical recycling. I always see it as a compliment.”
