According to a source, Nas may be chucking up the deuces to the United States and leaving for the greener pastures of Africa! A Nas insider has revealed that Nas is considering moving out of the United States in order to avoid paying the government $6.5 million in owed back taxes. Below is what the source is saying:
“Basically [Nas’] decision is more of a business move than anything else.””His lawyer gave him two options: Let the government take every dollar you make for the next 4-8 years or extradite yourself to a country where they can’t touch your earned income. Nas been talking about moving out the U.S. for years anyway so he was like, “F*ck it. Let’s drop the album and I’m out.” Africa’s his escape from the debt problems.”
“Life’s a b*tch and then you die, cause you never know when you’re going to go”.
Poor Nas.
(But leaving for Africa did work for him and T-Boz in “Belly”, so who knows?)
(AllHipHop News) DJ Holiday took a moment to sit with AllHipHop.com to discuss his relationship with Gucci Mane, as well as the pair’s upcoming releases.
“Gucci’s a close friend of mine, we met a long time ago, right around the time of his second or third album right before the success of ‘Wasted,'” DJ Holiday told AllHipHop.com. “We decided we wanted the whole swag of a T.I. and [DJ] Drama or a [DJ] Clue and Fab [Fabolous]. “It kind of just developed into a friendship – business.”
The two 1017 Bricksquad members are putting in time in the studio, as they work on Gucci Mane’s new album together.
DJ Holiday, who heads up Commission Music Group, let out a few secrets about Gucci Mane’s upcoming studio album.
“We are working on something right now. We were doing a lot of records for the album,” DJ Holiday told AllHipHop.com. “Rick Ross did some crazy s**t for us, Jim Jones did some crazy s**t for us. Nicki and Drake.”
According to DJ Holiday, they recorded so many songs for Gucci’s last mixtape “Trap Back,” that several other mixtapes from the Atlanta rapper will hit the streets soon.
“We have tracks that didn’t make ‘Trap Back’ and I promise you they are even crazier,” DJ Holiday told AllHipHop.com. “I fought for them to be on the mixtape and they didn’t make it.”

Well, well, well, look what we have here. After only selling 24,000 albums this week, it looks like Diggy Simmons has taken the old fashion route, and is trying to drum up a little beef to sell more records.
Last week, Diggy tried to diss Drake by posting two blocks that he says resembles “Drake’s eyebrows”. Check out the Facebook screen shot below:
Drake never responded. And now Diggy is going after J.Cole. This morning, he dropped a diss record called “What You Say To Me”. Check out the video and the lyrics below:
Here are the lyrics:
“The other day I was listening to Purple Rain
Couldn’t believe all of the things that I heard em say
“WHO DAT WHO DAT” you know who it is
Heard you lyin on my sis, tellin people that you hit
when ya album drops, I’ma hit you with your bricks
So I’ma bomb first on you since you wanna rift
Who you gonna call? You ain’t got no friends
This fight is fixed, you ain’t got no wins
Lil ***** think he Cole, think he live like me
Jet setter, trend setter, nah you not like me
Can’t find a girl you know that don’t like me
I Can’t find a girl I know that know you, you local
Wasn’t even poppin in the school you used to go to
Gotta “aight” lyrics but can’t deliver your vocals
I’ma about to read you your rights, Miranda
only thing you hittin “In The Morning” is your Hand
stand up, matter fact sit down
don’t try to call Hovi Hov for a sit down
College boy, acting like a criminal
knowing you a broke back Jake Gyllenhaal
You imaginary player, even TMZ didn’t notice you was there
Geesh, you are such a dweeb
and your shirts don’t fit, long arms, short sleeves”
SHOTS FIRED! After doing some research, we found out that Diggy’s older sister Vanessa Simmons went to St. Johns University at the same time as J.Cole, and the two were an item. Well, J.Cole has a track called “Purple Rain” where he actually alluded that he got “dome” from a “preacher'” daughter. Check out the audio video and the J.Cole lyrics below – verse starts at the 1:19 mark:
Good girl huh, father was a preacher
Sent her off to college thought I got her on a leash though
From the outside though, them girls be the squeakiest
You get 'em inside them girls be the freakiest
Mischievous, downright devious
Say she want cake I got all the right ingredients
Running round fronting like a pure white virgin
Gave a ni**a dome while her father gave a Sermon
Amen, let the choir sing
She be walking round campus like the quiet thing
So ni**as scared to approach when they admiring
Man if they know like I know she got that fire thing
Pour a little OJ with some P-trone
I’m feeling ok, but homie she’s gone
When remmy Rev called she just ignore him
I had her calling on God till the weed
And then I hit the door ni**a”
WHOA! Okay, so maybe Diggy has reason to go after J.Cole. T sure did sound like it was about Vanessa or Angela. Got to give Diggy some credit for defending his sister’s honor…. even though in all actuality he’s probably just doing it to boost his sales. Do you think J.Cole is going to respond?

In a recent interview, Birdman FINALLY responded to Jay-Z’s line in “H.A.M.” where he rapped, “I’m like, ‘Really, half-a-billi?’ N—a, really, you got Baby money/ Keep it real with n—as, n—as ain’t got my lady money.” Check out what he said below:
“I thought that was funny for a n*gga to holler out “Baby money.” I was like, “Wow, f*ck, what do you mean ‘Baby money’? N*gga, that ain’t no little money. We around here getting it. It wasn’t nothing, we ain’t trip. I was like, “Yeah, since it’s such a big deal, f*ck yeah we got ‘Baby Money.’ That Bugatti and that Lauder jet comes from ‘Baby Money,’” he said. “I don’t think [‘It’s Good’] is a diss record. It wasn’t more than what he said. N*ggas was G’ing up about what was said. We did that, done that, off that brother. We’re on our money train.”
If Jay-Z could respond, perhaps this is what he would say! Click the video below:
Superstar Alicia Keys was scheduled to appear on an episode of “Finding Your Roots” with Dr. Henry Louis Gates, but apparently she had to renege on the appearance after her grandmother told her a family secret that she didn’t want exposed. Alicia did not reveal the deep dark family secret that is keeping her from doing the show. She pretty much just pulled out with no explanation.
According to Dr. Gates, Alicia initially accepted the offer to appear on the show, but then backed out after talking to her father’s mother. Peep what he said about the issue below:
“Alicia Keys, who I love as a friend of mine, agreed to be in the first series, and as you know, she’s mixed. We need as much information as you can give us. Like the names of your parents, where they were born, grandparents etc., whatever you can give us. It makes our job a lot simpler right? Her Puerto Rican grandmother said, ‘Baby, you can’t be in the series. I can’t tell you why, but you can’t be in the series.’”
Sounds like Alicia’s grandmother was not trying to air out the family’s dirty laundry. Wonder what they’re hiding?
