Happy Super Election Tuesday!!

Welcome to the day that will change your life now and for many years to come! Today’s Daily Word is dedicated to making a choice! Whether you realize this or not, your vote today will be one of the most important votes that you will ever make in your life! What happens today will set the stage for which direction not only the country goes, but the world as well!

While I am proudly a supporter of President Obama, my goal is not to sway your vote but to urge you to vote! It is your right and DUTY to let your voice be heard! Don’t sit on the sideline complaining! Instead, get in the game and participate! This includes helping others exercise their right as well! Voter Suppression is real, so if you can help someone elderly, disabled, those with no transportation, or anyone that needs help getting to the polls, then please do so!

Similar to this election, in life the direction you wind up going is usually in direct proportion to the decisions you make! Anything you want to change about your life, you simply have to make the decision to do so! Never give up your power to change by doing nothing! No matter how difficult it may be, you ALWAYS have a choice! Use your power and choose wisely!!

Kendrick Lamar Wants Young People to Vote; League of Young Voters Praises Change of Heart

(AllHipHop News) Good kid, m.A.A.d. city artist Kendrick Lamar has been critical of voting in the past, but he recently spoke out to MTV with a different tune – encouraging his peers to get involved.

Lamar, who said he’ll be voting on Election Day tomorrow (November 6), said, “I think that’s one of our biggest failures as a community, as a generation; not wanting to go out and do for ourselves and to sit back and wait.”

“And then when it doesn’t happen, we point the finger. I think we just really need to take matters into our own hands; uplift our community, put money back in our community, and show these kids how there’s something different,” he added.

In recent weeks, League of Young Voters executive director Rob “Biko” Baker remarked on Lamar and his public, anti-voting stance, which included “I don’t do voting.” According to Baker and the League, they welcome his “change of heart” in the final days of the election.

“Glad to see Kendrick Lamar is using his voice to get people engaged,” Baker said. “He can do more to empower our generation to be critical thinkers and action takers than any organization’s voter registration drive. I am proud of Kendrick and this proves to me more that he is the future of hip-hop.”

(AllHipHop News) Lil Wayne was ordered to pay film maker Quincy “QDIII” Jones III over $2 million over a dispute over a documentary on Monday.

The Young Money mogul was ordered to pay exactly $2,195,000 to QDIII over a documentary about the rapper. The judgment was levied based on a counter suit by QDIII, which charged that Lil Wayne prevented the movie from being profitable.

TMZ reports that the rapper was unable to make it to court due to seizures that prevented him from flying.

Lil Wayne has not commented on losing the case at press time.

Rapper Jay-Z and Barack Obama Rally In Columbus, Ohio: “I Got ’99 Problems’ But Mitt Aint One”

(AllHipHop News) Hip-Hop star Jay-Z made an appearance in Columbus, Ohio earlier today (November 5), in support of President Barack Obama.

Jay-Z joined Bruce Springsteen and President Barack Obama on his final day of campaigning, which comes one day before the presidential elections, which take place tomorrow (November 6).

During the day, President Barack Obama held rallies in Des Moines, Iowa, Madison, Wisconsin and Columbus, Ohio.

Jay-Z performed a medley of his hits, including a reworked version of “99 Problems.” The rapper said the Secret Service would not clear the original version of “99 Problems,” so he performed an altered version with the following chorus:

“If you’re having world problems I feel bad for you son/I got 99 problems, but Mitt ain’t one”

“Change is on the way and its not an over night thing,” Jay-Z said. “We gonna forward, we don’t want to go back,” Jay-Z said, before introducing President Barack Obama.

President Barack Obama came out, hyped up the crowd and thanked Jay-Z for his performance.

“You know it’s an incredible honor to have Jay-Z and Bruce Springsteen on the same bill,” President Barack Obama said. “Not only are they all on my Ipod, and yes the President has an Ipod, but it’s also because both of them tell an American story. Jay-Z I told Jay-Z the other day that our lives are parallel. Nobody would expect us to be where we are today, when they met us, as younger men. Both of us have daughters and wives that are more popular than we are. Bruce Springsteen, all the work he’s done for this campaign. The Boss. Just like Jay, they tell a story about what our country is, what it should be, what it can be and what we should fight for.”

Hip-Hop Rumors: Juvenile Says Lil’ Wayne Was “Scared” To Leave Cash Money

By: ginatorres27 Updated Category: MOBILE

Ish has officially hit the fan! Rapper Juvenile has put all his cards out on the table and has decided to speak out against his former label Cash Money. In a recent interview with Complex, Juvenile reveals that he believes Lil’ Wayne was “afraid” of leaving Cash Money, and he was surprised when Wayne resigned with Cash Money and essentially “got beat” out of his own money.

Check out a few notable quotes from the interview below:

“When Wayne was trying to leave Cash Money [in the mid 2000s], same thing. He was trying to find out how did I leave, what did I do, he wanted to see my paperwork. I was like you can see it, but you’re gonna have to pay me for it now because now I know you ain’t with me. You’re own your own because I’m definitely on my own. If you want the paperwork and help from my end, I need to be compensated for it. [He never paid for it].”

“Still up to the day, Wayne really got beat out of all his money and took another contract. That’s part I never understood. I was signed to Atlantic and Jay-Z was excited about that because now we was about to get our own money. That’s what I really wanted. I wanted him to leave. All of a sudden he signed back I’m like, ‘Damn, what type of deal he got working?’

“If you notice the Young Money/Cash Money imprint, some of the stuff that need to say Young Money don’t say Young Money. I know Baby and I know Ronald [“Slim” Williams]. They ain’t giving up power of their company. They don’t care how big Wayne gets, they not giving up. If I didn’t getting it, he ain’t getting it.

Juvenile also spoke about Wayne’s producer woes, and he implied that Weezy didn’t make any money off royalties because of Cash Money’s bad business practices.

“[Tha Carter III] album did great. But I don’t think Wayne collected a dime on royalty side. I don’t think he’s gonna be able to because some of the cats he was dealing with wasn’t doing straight business on the producer side. You’re under the impression that the guy you got the beat from was the guy who made the beat. It was situations like that that Wayne got caught in..’

“Wayne is doing good right now, but if you go off of capital and off of who made the most money, he still ain’t top my numbers yet off one album. He’s still doing good, but he still never topped my numbers. If you go off of who could benefit most at the end of the day, in my book I feel like I’ve lost everything. They won. These n*ggas ate off the house I built.”

“I ain’t mad about it, I’m gonna build me another house. But don’t make it look like I was the bad guy. Don’t make it look like Juve came here and said, ‘Ah man, I’m leaving.’ The situation will always be, ‘F### you. Pay me.’”

Juvenile spilled quite a bit of in-house information there. Do you think Lil’ Wayne or Birdman are going to respond?

Hip-Hop Rumors: It Was All Just A “Cruel” Hoax!!!!

By: ginatorres27 Updated Category: MOBILE

Some young director just got the attention of the whole world, and it was all just a cruel joke.

Late last week, a video surfaced online that was posted to the YouTube page of director Austin Christianson. The video was entitled “Kanye West Presents Cruel Winter” and had a “Copyright DONDA” inscription under the descriptions, so naturally we all thought this was an official sneak peek trailer from Yeezy.

Oh, how easily we are fooled! I should have known when I googled Kanye West and the director’s name and nothing came up. Well, Fuse caught up with said director, and he basically admitted that the video was being pitched and Yeezy had nothing to do with putting it together. Check out what he said below:

“Without getting into many details, I will say that the trailer was independently made and the video is essentially a concept trailer. It’s used for pitching an idea and/or concept to a client. With that said, the video was being used for pitching purposes and it’s naturally intended only for the client to see.”

When pressed about whether or not Kanye has even seen the video, which features a narration from former President George H. W. Bush, the director said, “I can’t tell you any more than what’s already out there.” Which basically means ‘no, Kanye has never seen this video, but hopefully he has seen it now and he will offer me a job.’

Do you think Kanye should hire this guy? I mean the video is very “Kanye-ish” and had that Illuminati undertone to it, which all of the rap stars love these days. I think it needed more demonic imagery, though….I’m being sarcastic. This director, Austin Christianson just pulled off a huge publicity stunt. His biggest claim to fame before this was directing a music video for Wiz Khalifa. Hmm, maybe Kanye will work with him…..after all the “only n*gga I got respect for is Wiz.”
