Hip-Hop Rumors: Canibus Is Coming to Pay-Per-View

It looks like rapper Canibus is coming out of rap retirement to partake in the “Vendetta: Battle Royale” against rap battle veteran, Dizaster. The spit-fest will take place on June 9 in Los Angeles, California, and will mark the first time that Canibus goes into the ring for a one-on-one rap battle on Pay-Per-View.

Canibus released a diss record, “Rip The Jacker 2”, toward Dizaster a few months back, which sparked the matching at the Battle Royale. Take a listen to the record below:

That was pretty hard! But although Canibus has an impressive battle record, famously taking on LL Cool J, Eminem, and Wu Tang, Dizaster has won countless battles in the three-round, no time limit format and is a heavy crowd favorite.

If you want to catch the battle, you can order it through the King Of The Dot’s Ustream page.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Queen Latifah To Come Out?

I don’t believe anybody really cares about this at this point, but the people are talking. Just as Obama endorses same-sex marriage, this rumors sprouts. Rumors are swirling that Queen Latifah may actually come out as a lesbian at the Long Beach Lesbian & Gay Pride Festival in Cali. She is the headlining performer and this is a FIRST for La to perform at ANY gay pride event. Latifah is no stranger to the gay rumors, but this is a “watershed” moment. So, rumor has it, she may come out of the closet at the event. She’s had these rumors for a very long time and she’s been seen with various women. Its basically confirmed even though she has not come right out and said it. Organizers are not speaking on whether or not she’s coming out. They are just saying that the event will focus on QL as a star, not a potentially gay person.

OPRAH IS IN TROUBLE!
The 20 Funniest Oprah Winfrey Faces Of All Time
It look like Oprah’s winning streak may be over. The media magistrate’s OWN is hurting in a major way. The losses are adding up to $330 MILLION!! Reports are saying that Oprah’s show will not last another year at this rate. They need a hit show and then some to create a positive uptick to stay alive. Oprah, the billionaire, doesn’t really have any of her own money invested so her status is intact. But, the real “owner” of the network, David Zaslav of the Discovery Channel is rumored to be ready to pull the plug on it. I don’t wish anything bad to Oprah! She’s a G.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Rihanna Says She Wants To “Have Babies” With Tha Bawse

Rihanna is either really free with her sexuality, or she sure is one freaky chick. The good girl gone bad uploaded a photo of her with Ricky Rozay from the MET Gala along with the caption, “We Gonna Have Babies.” Check out the pic below:

Is she trying to get Meek Mill jealous by mingling with his boss?

In related news, Rihanna must have partied a little too hard at the MET Gala because the NY Post is reporting that she had to be hospitalized for exhaustion and dehydration after the event. When a fan on Twitter asked the star why she had been quiet all day, Rihanna tweeted the photo below of her arm hooked up to an IV.

While Rihanna may just be suffering from a bout of sickness, some are worried that the star’s partying has gotten out of control.

Star Magazine alleged today that Rihanna is on a “party binge.”

“Rihanna loves to party but this past month she’s gotten really out of control. She’s been drinking almost every day and talking about smoking weed a lot too,” a source tells the magazine. “Everyone is telling her to slow down and think about therapy, or even rehab.”

Do you think Rihanna has an addiction to partying?
