Hip-Hop Rumors: Lupe Fiasco Not A Fan Of 2Chainz And Yeezy’s “Birthday Song”

Rapper Lupe Fiasco was never one to bite his tongue, so why start now? Lupe was recently interviewed on the Jenny Boom Boom Show on Hot 93.7 and kept it all the way real regarding his thoughts on 2Chainz ft. Kanye West’s new song, “Birthday Song.” Check out what Lupe said about the track below:

“For me, Hip-Hop, we were saying this earlier, I wanna hear stuff that I haven’t heard before so like 99 percent of the Hip-Hop that I hear these days is just the same,” said Fiasco. “And it just kinda gets like, ‘What am I listening to it for?’ And for me that’s keeping it 100. It is what it is. It might be good, the beat is dope, lyrics might be whatever on a technical thing, but at the end of the day it’s like, ‘Why am I listening to this?’”

I thought Lupe and Yeezy were cool? Sheesh. Do you think Lupe’s single “B*tch Bad” is better than “Birthday Song”? Check out the two tracks below and speak on it.

I am feeling that “B*tch Bad”. I can appreciate his lyrics. And here’s 2Chainz and Kanye’s “Birthday Song”.

Which one do you like better? Either way, I hope Lupe is coming with some heat for his new album, Food & Liquor 2: The Great American Rap Album Pt. 1, which is set to drop on September 25. Check out Lupe’s full interview with Jenny Boom Boom below.

VIDEO PREMIERE: Deon Young’s “Drank In My Cup” Cover; Artist Is Latest Sylvia Rhone Signee On Epic Records

It’s not every day you get a chance to audition in front of music executives and get offered a deal on the spot. But that’s the story of 19-year-old singer and songwriter, Deon Young.

In 2011, Young reached out to fans outside of his hometown of Harlem, New York, when he released his For The Love mixtape. It got the attention of Sylvia Rhone, and music mogul L.A. Reid, landing Young a spot as the latest artist to sign to Rhone’s label.

Considered on more of the edgy side of R&B, like his counterparts Trey Songz, Lloyd, and even August Alsina, Young is putting his faith in Epic Records and now stepping out to claim his territory with a cover song and video for “Drank In My Cup” – check it out below:

Young is currently working on his full-length debut album. Find out more at www.deonforever.com.

Non Hip-Hop Rumor: Did Janet Jackson Get Into A Scuffle With Michael’s Daughter Paris?

Poor Michael Jackson must be turning over in his grave right now. Rumor has it that his entire family, including his favorite sister Janet, is at war with his children over his will. According to his will, Michael has left all of his money and property to his three children, Paris, Blanket and Prince, and has left nothing to his family.

Michael’s siblings are none too happy with being left out of his will, and don’t believe that their brother would have purposely left them out. They are currently fighting the conservators of the will and are claiming that it was forged. Things took a turn for the worse earlier this week when rumors were swirling that Michael’s mother and the legal guardian for his children, Katherine Jackson, had gone missing. The rumors were intensified when Paris Jackson confirmed the rumors over twitter.

Janet Jackson was caught on camera trying to take Paris’ cell phone away from her after asking her not to tweet anymore of the family’s personal business. Paris asked Janet Jackson to leave the home that their father legally left to them, and Janet was having none of that.

Check out how the UK Daily is reporting the incident below:

The photo above shows the extraordinary moment Janet Jackson is believed to have slapped her niece Paris and called her a ‘spoiled little b****’ during an attempt to ‘ambush’ Michael Jackson’s three children.

Police were called as the singer, along with brothers Randy and Jermaine, stormed the children’s house as the feud between the warring clan erupted into open warfare on Monday.

When Janet allegedly screamed abuse at Paris the 14-year-old responded with a slap of her own, a source told TMZ, telling her aunt: ‘This is our house. Not the Jackson family house. Get the f*** out!”

The argument then moved inside with Jermaine and Randy allegedly getting into a physical altercation with Trent Jackson, Joe Jackson’s nephew who has sided with his young cousins.

At one point, Trent allegedly had Randy in a headlock; he is also accused of punching Jermaine in the mouth.

No arrests were made, but officials say there is an active battery investigation.

Crazy! According to reports, there is a $1 Billion fortune at stake. I hope they can all work out their differences for Michael’s sake.
