Lil Boosie’s Daughter Iviona Rapping; Plans to Hit the Studio With Dad
(AllHipHop News) Lil’ Boosie’s daughter, Iviona Hatch, is finally recovering from several tumultuous months during which her father was fighting for his life and freedom.
After Lil’ Boosie’s jury reached a non-guilty verdict in a Lousiana courthouse last week, Iviona wasted no time telling DJ Smallz that she has a blossoming music career and is seeking to work with her father upon his release.
“I’m feeling like – I ain’t been having no appetite – I ain’t have an appetite Friday, or none Saturday really, and first thing when he comes home, we gettin’ in the booth, get in the booth, and get that money,” Iviona explained. “They just gonna see me rock the mic, and they gonna see what I’m really here for, and they gonna see a mini version of Boosie. That’s what they gonna see, a mini version of Boosie,” Iviona said.
When asked if she had any songs with Lil’ Boosie, Iviona replied, “Not yet, but you think my songs go hard? But put both of us together, and it’s gonna go super hard.”
More information on Lil’ Boosie’s daughter and his plans for release as details emerge.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Did Mickey Factz Snort “Yayo” On Stage?
We hear underground rapper Mickey Factz had a wild show at NYC’s S.O.B.’s last night that consisted of Factz allegedly snorting cocaine on stage. What the? Why Mickey, why????
We also hear Mickey was able to convince some random chick in the audience to jump on stage and take off all of her clothes. I’m guessing she was high on that yayo as well.
In related news, Mickey Factz has just released the visual to his new track “Taking Pictures Of Girls Naked”. Check out the video below:
Stay off that stuff, Mickey!
Breeding Ground Spotlight: Te
Female Rap rebel TE (Pronounced Tay) is taking the independent music world by storm. The dynamic MC is the first lady of Blue Heart Entertainment. Blue Heart Entertainment is grinding it’s way to the top led by CEO Neil Thomas. The Rapstress Te has been featured on Shade 45, YoRaps.com, VladTV, Thisis50.com, XXL and more. With an impeccable delivery and unmatched cadence, Te storms the Hip hop scene with unique passion and creativity for her own raw yet polished style of rapping. Equally important, Te’s highly anticipated Mixtape entitled “BlackSheep” is currently a featured release on Coast2Coast Mixtapes and Datpiff.
AllHipHop.com: What’s Good TE? What is the significance of your name?
TE: My stage name TE is an abbreviation for my real name Shante. When I was growing up nicknames and abbreviations were like mandatory, so it’s just something everybody start calling me. To me it stands for “Take Everything” because that’s what I do with everything I do. I want it all! I’m not stingy but I’ve never been the type to sit around just so you can eat. I’m trying to get what I can while I’m here.
AllHipHop.com: Who is your target market?
TE: I make music primarily for the average person growing up in poverty. My music is even for those who never even witnessed this type of lifestyle and just want to tap into the lives of people like myself to try to get an understanding of why I am who I am. Through my music I try to show the rituals I grew up on and my trials and tribulations as well as my successes. I want to make people feel like it’s ok to have gone through struggles and make mistakes and know it’s not the end of the world. Like look at me. I was once that kid they made out to believe there was nothing out here for me but the streets. Everywhere I turned they told me I would never be anything useful. Anything is possible. Live beyond the limits they set for you.
http://youtu.be/K4dkxHoJDY8
AllHipHop.com: What is your USP? (Unique Selling Proposition) and what sets you apart from other Hip Hop artists?
TE: I’m comfortable being me. I’m my own biggest fan. Females sharing a similar lifestyle as mine never had anybody to look up to. Of course the world knows there are some in entertainment but the industry hides it as if something is wrong with it. You can’t imagine how many females out here are ashamed of something they have no control over. I am that role model. What sets me apart is that I am a female who can actually stand up with these men bar for bar and I’m talking the best of them!
AllHipHop.com: What single or project are you currently pushing?
TE: The project I’m currently pushing is my Mixtape entitled Blacksheep! It’s story of my life. The lead single is called “Last Hope.” I feel like I gave the listeners “All Of Me” with this project. I didn’t hold back anything.. This mixtape will be a featured mixtape on Datpiff.com and Coast2Coast Mixtapes. It will be dropping in a couple of days. On this Blacksheep project we got beats by General Beats, Anno Domini Beats, Kyze Beats with mixes by 15 Mofe, Boogie Bangers, And Moses Jones. RIP to my man Kyze who was the perfect fit for me. It’s going to be hard trying to replace that. But basically, you will feel my pain, my joy, my highs and my lows. And most importantly the “BlackSheep” mixtape is very entertaining.
AllHipHop.com: Which artists have inspired you?
TE: I’ve been inspired by many great artists like Biggie, Jayz, Tupac, Nas, Jadakiss, Dre, Jermaine Dupri, Beanie Segal, Lloyd Banks, Scarface, Big L, Big Pun, Bone Thugs, Lauren Hill, Nore, Dmx, 50 Cent, Eminem. They have all influenced me in one way or another. I will tell you that the 90’s era itself played the biggest in influencing me.
http://youtu.be/faOZHNQt0xA
AllHipHop.com: What is your favorite part of your live show? How has it evolved?
TE: My favorite part is interacting with the crowd and actually watching people recite these things that I wrote as if it were their own lyrics. That is an emotional high.. Even first time fans show their appreciation not only with bouncing along but just staring in amazement. I’m more open and direct with my fans today than I was yesterday so that results into a better presentation.
AllHipHop.com: What is your opinion of the current state of the music industry?
TE: The industry is cool right now. I think it’s trying to get back to its original state. I’m more than happy at the fact that these labels are starting to sign real talent instead of those “here today and gone tomorrow image acts.” Ringtone rap is dying out if it’s not already dead and those raw emotions and lyrics are starting to find their way back.
AllHipHop.com: Any final words for the people?
TE: Shout out to AllHipHop.com for the opportunity. Please check me out on Youtube.com/1amte and Twitter.com/crownme_te. Shout out to Blue Heart Entertainment. And Finally I ain’t a Big Poppa or a Tupac, I ain’t a Jayz or a Nas, I ain’t a Lil Wayne because I don’t do Rock, but I’ll tell you what I am…. I am Te and I’m ON THE RIISSSEEE!!!! Blacksheep!
EXCLUSIVE: Short Dawg Talks Relationship With Young Money; Explains Inspiration Behind “Drankenstein” Mixtapes
(AllHipHop News) Houston rapper and Young Money affiliate Short Dawg spoke exclusively with AllHipHop.com recently about his upcoming work with Young Money. Surprisingly, he also shared his love for the popular promethezine and codeine concoction popularly known as “drank,” “lean,” or “sizzurp.”
Currently riding out a busy tour with Coast to Coast Mixtapes, Short Dawg is traveling the country, delivering his music to the masses and continuing to feed his steadily-climbing buzz across the rap game.
“Just cooling out on the “Adventures of Drankenstein Tour” with Coast to Coast [Mixtapes],” Short Dawg explained to AllHipHop.com. “We doing like 20 dates, and I’m just out here working. This is day number three, so we just out here working, man.”
Although Short Dawg kept details about his work with Young Money quiet, he did confirm that he is still working with the Lil Wayne-led empire, and that he still keeps in contact with Baby and Wayne frequently, especially when he is in Miami.
“Yeah, that’s my fam, that’s my people. We just keeping it moving. I got something in the works for y’all coming up real soon, and we just gonna keep quiet about it, but it’s coming real soon. Everything is lovely,” Short Dawg said.
Short Dawg has been busy this year with the promotion of Adventures of Drankenstein, a concept project that’s essentially an ode to the popular Houston “drank.”
“I mean, well, being from Houston, you know ‘drank’ is just like a common thing, you know what I’m saying? Like I experienced with it when I was 15, and it’s something that my brother used to be heavy into. He fell asleep on his cup one day, and I just happened to reach over, grab it, and took a sip. Fell in love, you know what I’m saying? So I just rap about what I experience, my n*gga, and drank is one of those things that I indulged with as a kid to now, and it’s just stuck with me, and here I am – ‘Drankenstein.'”
Short Dawg is currently working on the Adventures of Drankenstein Continues: Syrup and NoDoz, and has a video game in the works called, Drankenstein Ridin’ Fresh.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Iggy Azalea Already Dropped From Interscope?!
Grand Hustle rapstress Iggy Azalea was reportedly signed to a joint deal with Interscope Records and T.I.’s Grand Hustle Records, and was even quoted as saying that her deal at Interscope was “restructured” to include Grand Hustle. Well, now it seems like her deal with Interscope has fallen apart.
T.I was recently a guest on the MTV show POV, and said that his prodigy Iggy Azalea is a “free agent right now”. So I guess that’s confirmation that the deal with Interscope is no more, right? Man, we don’t know. T.I. or Iggy, holla at us and let us know what the real deal is!
Daily Word: Start Over!!!
Happy Wins-Day, my passionate and persistent!
Welcome to the first day of the rest of your life! The day that you finally put the past behind
you and begin to create the life that you deserve! Today’s Daily Word is dedicated to starting over!
There is a big epidemic going on where people are refusing to let go of the things that they know are toxic in their life! Whether it is a dead-end career, a spoiled business venture, or a relationship that is never going anywhere, we are beginning to see people hold on to what is broken in the hopes that they will fix it, instead of simply starting over!
It is always too early to quit!! But when I say that, what I’m saying is that you should go after your dream until you get it! What I’m not saying is to hold onto your same methods until they work…. Truth be told…doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results is not only
crazy, it is a waste of time and energy! At any moment and at anytime, you can re-write your story and start fresh!
Let go of that lackmentality that says if you let something go, you’ll never get it back! Sometimes hitting the reset button is exactly what you need to do it better the next time around! Life is abundant! The only time you run out of chances is when you stop taking them! As Marilyn Monroe once said, “Some things fall apart, so better things can fall together.” Let those things fall together!!

Hip-Hop Rumors: Did Lil’ Wayne Dump His Fiancée For His Rapper Ex, Trina?
Last week, we told you how Lil’ Wayne dumped his rumored fiancée, Dhea, because she was being a little too ambitious for his taste and had begun posing for men’s magazines and opened a Twitter account. Well, those may not be the only reasons why Wayne gave homegirl her walking papers.
Weezy recently gave his ex-girlfriend Trina a huge shout out while on stage at club LIV in Miami, FL over the weekend and basically professed his love for his ex. “If Trina’s in here. Hey Trina. I love you and I miss you baby,” said Lil’ Wayne.
Check out the video below and hear it for yourself.
Weezy was trying to get some love in the club, I see. Those two were actually cute together, but we hear Trina is now dating NBA star James Harden – below is a picture of them embracing at a recent Thunders game.
Side note: Did you hear Kevin Hart joking around with Lil’ Wayne on stage? He said, “Trina, if you in here I just wanna say, I’m drinking milk and I should be taller tomorrow” — He is such a fool!
90’s#### Maker Akinyele Rakes In Millions As Vegas Strip Club Owner
(AllHipHop News) Rapper Akinyele, known for the raunchy 90’s#### “Put It In Your Mouth,” has apparently struck gold in Las Vegas as the owner of a new gentlemen’s club in the heart of the city.
The New York rapper has moved $5 million in one week after the grand opening of Lollypops with partners Cliff Dutton and Jay, according to a press release.
“We decided to officially launch LollyPops and align ourselves during the Mayweather vs. Cotto fight weekend and I can proudly say there are now two winners,” said Akinyele.
Ak has long been known in the adult entertainment world for his penchant for p####-mouthed lyrics. In 1993, his debut album was titled V##### Diner. The album was a mild success, but the controversy with the titled yielded more success for the rapper. His second album, 1996’s Put It in Your Mouth, made the rapper a success in the underground world of adult entertainment with the themes of sex and pornography. He went on to release several other sex-themed albums, songs and even worked closely with former p### star Heather Hunter.
Now, Akinyele continues to meld Hip-Hop with adult entertainment in Lollypops.
“We’ve been thrilled and amazed to see lines of both men and women still coming at 8 a.m. and this has been every single night, better yet morning I should say, over the past 10 days,” said Akinyele.
He has also employed a number of Hip-Hop acts and strippers to bolster the ambiance in the club.
DJ Whoo Kid is the resident DJ with others like Don Cannon, DJ RockStarr, Mark Da Spot and others. Even more have come to visit the club, including Ray J, Bad Girls Club’s Camilla Poindexter, Interscope Records’ LoveRance, Gary Payton, Bobby Brackins, Mistah Fab, Marshawn Lynch, Sleepy Brown, Problem, G-Unit/ZooLife’s 40 Glocc.
Ending, Ak said he named the club Lollypops, because it was “the only way we can metaphorically say ‘put it in your mouth’ without offending anyone.”
Torae Premieres Visual For Pete Rock Produced “That Raw” Exclusively On AllHipHop.com; Talks Video Concept
(AllHipHop News) Breeding Ground Alumni and Duck Down recording artist Torae is ready to unveil the music video for his Pete Rock produced track “That Raw” off of his 2011 release, For The Record.
Torae, who is exclusively premiering the video here on AllHipHop.com, spoke on the concept of the record and the visual that accompanies it. He said, “I think when you hear the title “That Raw,” especially for people that know me and know me as a wordsmith of sorts, know that I like to really try and make the people think. “That Raw” is just being a raw MC, a raw lyricist and giving you real content.”
“When you think of “That Raw” in the streets you think of uncut heroin or a real raw product on the drug market so we’re trying to merge the two worlds and what I did was give you “That Raw.” If you look at the video it’s almost like a feeling of peddling an illegal substance and what it is is just the lyricism and the lyrics. It’s a real interesting concept and I didn’t want to just hit you with the norm so I think when people see it they’re going to like it,” he told AllHipHop.com.
The Coney Island MC is also preparing to reveal a new series for MTV as well as his “For the Record Docu-Series” in early June. Torae told AllHipHop.com, “The series really chronicles the whole process of me making my album [For the Record] from the conception and the thought to actually going in the studio. It captures way more then me just recording or going on stage, it shows my life and the life of an independent artist and the ups, downs and roadblocks I’ve seen during the year process of making the album. It’s just something I’m real proud of and I think when people see Torae they expect a certain amount of quality with each project that I put out. This is just another notch in the belt.
Torae’s For the Record, which features production from DJ Premier, Large Professor, 9th Wonder and Pete Rock, is available now.
Check out Torae’s new video for “For the Record” below:
