TODAY’S RUMORS!

THE DAILY TWO SENSE

What’s the deal, all? I am back in black like I never left. I really don’t have anything profound to say today. Over the weekend there was a lil’ doo-dad between Bishop Lamont and DJ Vlad over whether or not he was still signed to Aftermath. Good to see Bishop is still on the label that Dre made. I guess I’d be wrong if I said I hadn’t heard the same stuff that got Vlad and B.L. clashing. Anyway. That’s that. I wish them both the best. I won’t even comment more on the stuff with DJ Vlad and Bishop Lamont. All I can say is that I hope nothing gets violent between these guys! In case you didn’t see it, Bishop Lamont says he still on Aftermath and here is the story!SEE SOMETHING?SAY SOMETHING!RUMORS TIME!

50 CENT SEEKS TO RUIN RICK ROSS

Man, I don’t understand why this has to carry on the way it is, but it does and it will continue on. 50 Cent has reportedly obtained the Correctional Officer graduation footage from somebody that shows Rick Ross graduating from school, or whatever academy he had to go through. I heard that 50 is going to drop this on on the day or so that Rick’s CD drops. WOW. Anyway, that makes the book by Tia and this as things that are coming out around the time Ross’ album drops. Why would he waste paper on that book though? Seriously, I actually think that makes Rick seem bigger…of course that depends on the content of the book.

Anyway, 50 is in Cali and I heard he is working on his album as well as doing some stuff for Dre’s album too. Maybe Detox isn’t so delayed? I heard he was in Vegas for a vid by Eminem. I heard the three of them are planning some sort of tour this summer, but I don’t think that means we’ll get Detox before that. I heard that 50 Cent is planning a huge show at MSG with all sorts of names, including people like KRS-One, Kool G Rap and Papoose. I could be wrong, but that’s what I heard. I would also be incredible if it would come true. PLEASE?

RICK ROSS IS RECRUITING!

Well, here is some good news for Rick Ross. I heard that Ross’ album is bananas. But, I have heard that he’s had some difficulty getting some support from a few of Ross’ adversaries. Rumor has it, Ross was tried to get Young Buck on a record dissing 50 and Buck would have none of it. On the flip side, Ja Rule and Bang Em Smurf are down to ride for Ross. Ja Rule has already mentioned that he’s going to be on the Maybach Muzik remix (or whatever the song is). the Game said he would, but also said he was more focused on his current tour and next album.

OLD SCHOOL RAPPER SLASH PERVERT?

Ohhh…boy! There are some rumors that you just cannot put a name to. Now, I straight up DON’T have a name to this one so let me see if you can help me know, but not tell. I have been told that there is a well-known rapper from the West Coast that has been known to ride around a middle school in Los Angeles looking for “fresh meat.” I heard from my unofficial official best friend that said Old School Rapper used to cruise around Orville Wright Middle School in a blue Corvette. Rumor has it, his alleged predator ways scared parents of the school some years ago. SMH.

PRAISE THE LORD! THE NEW PAC ALBUM IS ON THE WAY!

I have the official word and you can tell them that you heard it from illseed FIRST…unless somebody else out there said it after I said it first. Anyway, there is a new album from Tupac coming out this year. That’s right – THIS YEAR. Now, there is no title for the album, but there is some important information. The Late, Great Johnny J will have his beats on this album. That’s right, people, illseed is telling you that Pac and Johnny J will smile down upon us when their music – straight out of the vaults – will be given to fans. This is very exciting to me!

LUPE IN MAY?

I don’t know about this one, but I like my homey Rhymestyle so here it goes. Apparently, Lupe has been telling people that the official word on his album is 1) it is definitely called Lasers and 2) it will be dropping this MAY Now, this is going to be great for buzz-building, but do you really think Lupe is going to come out in about a month?? I can’t say that I expect that to happen since there has been no promo, no video and no single to speak of. With that, I say hope for it but don’t get your tightie whities in a bunch when it doesn’t happen.

ILLSEED PIC OF THE DAY!Did you photohop or animate me? Send it in and let me see it! A link or email allhiphoprumors@gmail.com.

MISSING REMY MA!

I know she’s a bad, bad girl, but I really miss the voice of Remy Ma! She was the “leader” of the female rappers! Sheeeeeesh! Anybody know how to write her?

Here are some old pics from some AHH event!

Nobody can replace Rem!

RIHANNA SEX TAPE? NO SO FAST!

I am not one to refute a rumor until there is a rumor to refute. That didn’t make any sense, but there was a rumor from back in the day that stated that there was a Rihanna / Chris Brown sex tape! Really fast – why do people still use the term “tape” when nobody really uses physical tape anymore? Anyway, the gentleman that claims to have this sex tape in his possession hit me up and gave me a couple screen grabs from it. It does resemble RiRi, but it also looks like it could be somebody that looks like Rihanna and is basically styling herself to look like the star. I’ll give you more on this if he give me more on this rumor.

FLAVOR OF LOVE’S 2,236th P### CONNECTION!

There have been so many p###-type chicks in these so-called reality shows and Flavor Flav’s in particular. Well, I stopped watching Flavor of Love a ways back, but it would seem that Grayvee of the show has a sister in the “business.” Her sister is reportedly none other than p### superstar Ayana Angel. While I don’t know if this is true 100%, I certainly have sources that say this is confirmed. Anyway, the Flavor of Love star has yet to make her own appearance in p###, but my sources say she is considering. I am to be receiving some really hot pics of the Gravyvee soon.

Is this p### star swag?

RUN DMC DID IT! IN THE ROCK HALL OF FAME!

Run DMC are the “Kings of Rock!” WOW! How ill!

Just as a refresher, kids, here is the video for “King of Rock.”

“WHAT IF” CONTROVERSY

Nas and Jadakiss have a new song called “What If” and its fire. But some in the rap game are crying foul, claming that somebody may have bitten off somebody.

Hear the Jadakiss song by clicking HERE.

Hip-Hop heads know that Ras Kass had a song of similar concept so check that out!

I have gotten emails from a few people that claim this was stolen from them. I have to just chaulk it up to creative minds thinking alike.

THE REAL REASON BEHIND RICK ROSS/T.I. BEEF!?

I never claimed to know the reason behind the old beef between Rick Ross and T.I.

yo ill i dont comment 2 much but i read yo article everyday.when that ti and ross REALLY jumped off those years ago it was because of a quarell over a beat.Apparently Ross had dibs on a Kanye(i think) beat,made a song, but the beat ended up on tis trap music for “Doin My Job”.Ross made a song for the ladies on it, but he couldnt put it out because of the move.i heard the ross song on an old mixtape around when he started getting noticed.and THEN there was the rubberband man line that he took to heart.keep bringin that info,keep us talkin.checc me out if you can.thanx

DAY 26 FIGHT!

Look, I don’t know these dudes at all, but I don’t mind a good fight even if its between a group of sissy-sorf metrosexuals. SMH.

CLUB RAPPERS DISS CHRIS BROWN!

Sure its old, but hipsters aren’t exempt from dissing Chris Brown. Brown appears in court today.

ILLSEED’S QUICKIES

Lady GaGa thinks she might be bisexual.

Sway Studio wasn’t pleased at the comments Kanye made to Complex magazine. It appears that they didn’t get their fair share of credit for the technical rendering of his computer self. Here is the animated dis.

OH WELL! Common wa supposed to play The Green Lantern in the The Justice League superhero movie, but they switched back to the White Green Lantern.

I thought DMX was gonna stay down, but the rapper is supposedly going to headline the Ambush 2.0 Summer Tour with other rappers like Beanie Sigel.

RANDOM QUOTES

Kim Kardashian is tired of you taking pix of her boo-TAY:

“When you’re posing on the red carpet and the paparazzi shout, ‘Turn around! Turn around!’ It gets a little offensive. At first I thought it was funny and flattering, but it’s tiresome now. I’ve seen magazines where plastic surgeons are saying, ‘If you want a butt like this it has to be fake,’ and I’m just like, ‘Dude, have you ever seen an Armenian girl before?”

Mr. T lays down the law!

“You know Hugh Hefner, the Playboy guy? He has invited me to the Playboy mansion over 25 times – I never showed up. “There’s nothing Hugh Hefner can do for me. If I went to the Playboy mansion, it would be a plus for Hugh Hefner, but a minus for me.”

D-12 and ROYCE TALK EMINEM, BEEF AND OTHER MATTERS!

Kuniva & Swifty Mcvay from D12 & Royce Da 5’9 visit DJ Manny Norte on Kiss 100fm in the UK. They discuss their previous beefs, how the new Eminem album will change the game, how Slaughterhouse started and Royce’s relationship with DJ Premier’s beats.

COUGAR BARBIE – THIS IS THE END OF THE WORLD!

EPIC FAIL OF THE DAY!

This video was so funny, I had to call it a fail of the day.

EPIC WINNNNNNNNNN OF THE DAY!

Mel B – just…stole…my heart, b. DAAAAYYYYYEEEEEEEEEMMMMMMM!!!!!! This is the biggest win ever!

MILF of the YEAR! Sorry Halle! I’m calling this one! Mel B = MILF of the year!

JD GETS CAUGHT OUT THERE DRUNK AND SLEEPING!

BUSTA RHYMES, KISS AND LIL WAYNE!

I honestly don’t know. But, is this exclusive? I know they are working on a video.

HOW DID I MISS THIS?

Check this out. A preview of the Jim Jones Documentary. This looks interesting to me.

Finale: “A Pipe Dream And A Promise” (Album Review)

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: Reviews / Music

 

 

It has seemed since the passing of producer J. Dilla and rapper Proof, the light has shone a bit brighter on Detroit. It has put many of us on to some good music with veteran rappers such as Royce Da 5’9 and new jack producers such as Black Milk have given Hip-Hop heads something to nod to. Next up is Finale. A Pipe Dream And A Promise(Interdependent Media) doesn’t signify an average rapper who is masked around production, but a Hip-Hop lover who is at home on the microphone.

 

Finale has attracted some pretty strong production from around the Motor City and beyond. Headlining the Detroit lineup is J. Dilla’s “Heat”. Finale hits this track at a nonstop pace. He sparsely takes time to breath breaking out lines reminiscent of Busta Rhymes. Also coming along form the ride is Black Milk, who delivers on “Motor Music”.

 

Surprisingly, Finale finds some of his best work coming from Nottz. Both “Jumper Cables” and “Brother’s Keeper” have the knock to match Finale’s cadence in a great way. It leaves a quick second of open sound which matches the production as well as a snare or bass drum well.

 

The title track “A Pipe Dream And A Promise” produced by Oddisee, attacks from different angles, calling from jazz and a heavy snare to catch the attention of the listener. It takes a few seconds to get used to, but after a while it fits right in place.

 

Even with powerful flow and mic presence, there are a few missteps. “The Waiting Game” comes off like the mixture of a throw away beat from normally consistent Krysis and in kind, throwaway verses from Finale. “Issues” sounds like a bad blend, as Finale never finds the grove he need to hit in order to match the beat.

 

Emcees come a dime a dozen, and due to the internet, that is even more apparent. With the ability for anyone to create a studio and distribute music, it really floods the market more than ever.

 

It can make anyone miss out on finding a new artist that is worth sticking around with. Even with its few flaws, A Pipe Dream And A Promise establishes Finale’s ability with lyrics and word play. One can only hope that this album isn’t a finale for him.

Game Review: Resident Evil 5

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: Uncategorized

 

Developer/Publisher: CapcomPlatform: XBOX 360

 

Players: 1-2(Co-op/Online)Release Date: 3/13/09

 

Rating: B+

 

Capcom has been known over the years for the break-out success of one of its top franchises, the Resident Evil series. Known for its terrifying and gory fun, the series garnered a following because of its ability to keep players on the edge of their seats. As series vets know, Resident Evil took a radical departure from this tried-and-true formula on Resident Evil 4, and now on Resident Evil 5.

 

Resident Evil 5 picks up 10 years after the Resident Evil 2. Chris Redfield, one of the protagonists from the very first installment, is sent to Africa with the B.S.A.A., an association that protects the world from bio-nuclear threats.

 

He teams up with Sheva, a member of the African branch of B.S.A.A. to stop a huge nuclear weapons deal from taking place. The two spend time tracking down the threat while bumping into Chris’ old nemesis Albert Wesker and trying to find out exactly what is going on in the Cradle of Civilization.Players the enjoyed Resident Evil 4 will fit right in. The controls haven’t really changed, except for the addition of a strafe movement. There are 4 different control presets, so players shouldn’t really have an issue finding a style that suits them. The game has the same over-the-shoulder perspective as its predecessor.

 

 

 

 

There is still not an option to move while shooting, as there’s never been in the series. While this may dampen the experience for people that want the true feel of an action game, it is the skeleton of a Resident Evil game, so it really shouldn’t be that much of a surprise.The huge suitcase you could use to haul weapons around in Resident Evil 4 is long gone. You are now limited to carrying only 9 items at a time. You can also no longer be in the safety of a pseudo-pause menu while selecting items; everything takes place in real-time. The addition of hot-keys for the D-Pad definitely helps with switching weapons in the midst of battle.It’s not a rare occurrence for tons of enemies to be on the screen at the same time. As soon as you chop down one, there’s another one right behind you getting ready to clock you with a wine bottle. Instances like these really validate the addition of multiplayer to the series.

With someone to always watch your back, it changes the feel of the gameplay because you’re always responsible for your partner. If they die, it’s back to the last checkpoint.

The interactive cinematics are back from Resident Evil 4, so you will perish many times if you think you are just watching an in-game movie. Nuances like these help keep gamers on their feet and the action there at all times, even when you think it’s over.Resident Evil 5’s graphics are surreal. The game runs beautifully in 1080p. The small details bring a huge sense of realism to the game. Rain hitting the characters’ tactical vests, pollen floating through the air, the details on Chris and Sheva’s faces; these things all work together to create a visually stunning game. The environments are all beautifully rendered, wide-open spaces. You’ll see a wide range of different areas throughout the course of the game, so there’s no need to worry about familiarity.Resident Evil 5 marks the first time in the series where cooperation with a partner, whether it is AI or an online or offline buddy, is essential. There are numerous spots in the game where you’ll need the assistance of a partner, whether it’s splitting up to unlock a door or fending monsters off of one another. Whereas Resident Evil 4 has enemies on a huge scale, Resident Evil 5 has them on a humungous scale.

 

The Resident Evil fan favorite, Mercenaries, makes its return in the latest installment. For those who’ve never played the mode before, you are essentially thrown in the middle of a war zone where you have to kill as many enemies as possible with very little ammo and health. It is very easily one of the most addictive parts of the game.

While Mercenaries does not have multiplayer mode, it is very easily one of the most addictive parts of the game. The learning curve of Resident Evil 5 may be slightly steep for newcomers of the series, while series vets will find themselves right at home. Professional mode has plenty of frustration for those hardcore players that yearn for it.Resident Evil 5 has something for everyone, whether it’s story progression or action. Capcom really did a great job taking the series in a new direction while keeping the game true to its name. It’s advisable for players to be ready for something new in the series; change isn’t always a bad thing.

 

Resident Evil 5 Trailer:

Bishop Lamont Still On Aftermath

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: News

Bishop Lamont has vehemently denied all reports that he’s no longer signed to Aftermath Records, the label owned by Dr. Dre.

“Last time I checked, I’m still on Aftermath – that’s news to me,” the rapper said in an online video. “This isn’t the first time this has happened.”

The rapper was signed to Dr. Dre in 2005 and has gone on to be one of the promising talents in Hip-Hop.

“N***as are gonna do what they gotta do to get attention,” Lamont said. “Yes, I’m still on Aftermath. I’m the last dude on Aftermath so its an honor and a tribute.”

“I’m already down with 50,” Lamont stated, recognizing the speculation that he may have transitioned to G-Unit Records. “That’s already family.”

The rapper from Carson, CA said that he saw both sides of the gossip.

“I ain’t looking at it like a negative, [but] I just hate when people try to pull out rumors and s**t.” he said.

In related news, Bishop Lamont said that he would no longer comment on the status of Dr. Dre’s highly-anticipated, and long-delayed Detox album.

“You know what, I always get in trouble for saying too much, because all those records were getting leaked,” he admitted. “A lot of those record you already had [and they] got demolished. So, I gotta be quiet, because I don’t want to get in trouble.”

Hip-Hop Producer Tony D. Killed In Car Accident

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: News

Veteran producer Tony D. was killed in a tragic car accident last night (April 4) in his hometown of Hamilton, New Jersey.

 

Police said Tony D., born Anthony Depula, lost control over his 2002 Jeep when it struck the fence of a local cemetery, causing the vehicle to flip onto its passenger side.

 

A number of neighbors attempted to remove the producer from the Jeep as they waited for emergency personnel to respond. Tony D., who was not wearing a seat belt, was taken to Capital Health Systems for treatment, where he was pronounced dead for a severe injury to his neck.

 

Tony D. started his career as a D and he managed MC Serch of 3rd Bass fame.

 

He went out to produce for a number of acts, including Poor Righteous Teachers, The Outsidaz, Young Zee, King Sun, Pace Won, DJ Muggs and others.

 

Tony D.’s best known production was Poor Righteous Teachers’ Hip-Hop classic single “Rock Dis Funky Joint,” which was released in 1990.

Run-DMC Inducted Into Rock Hall of Fame, Eminem Presented

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: News

Pioneering Hip-Hop group Run-DMC was officially inducted into the Rock Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio tonight (April 4).

 

The duo was honored during a star-studded gala that saw Little Anthony and the Imperials, Wanda Jackson, Metallica, Jeff Beck and Bobby Womack, inducted into the prestigious music Hall of Fame.

 

Thousands of fans attended the event, including numerous celebrities like Russell Simmons, Lyor Cohen, Bill Adler, Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Rolling Stones’ Ronnie Wood Justine Simmons and Eminem, who introduced the group.

 

A rejuvenated Slim Shady sported Run-DMC’s signature black leather jacket and leather coat.

 

“Two turn tables and mic, that’s all it took to change the world,” Eminem said. “When I was a kid growing up in Detroit. I didn’t know what to be, then came Run-DMC. “I had never heard or seen anything like them, but I knew I wanted to be them. I had skipped school to go buy Tougher Than Leather the day it came out. [As] soon as I heard ‘Run’s House,’ it was a wrap for me. Marshall Mathers became Eminem.”

 

“R.I.P. to Jam Master Jay. Jam Master Jay’s mom Connie Mizell let us create routines in her living room. We’d be there with the turn tables. She never told us we couldn’t be there. I came up with the lyrics to ‘Rock Box in JMJ’s house. I want to thank you for not turning the music down.”

 

DMC gave an emotional speech, in which he thanked his birth mother, as well as his adopted parents.

 

“I’m living proof as I stand before you, not as a celebrity or a rapper, but as proof of purpose and destiny. You are looking at what can happen when you take time out of your life to love your kid. If my birth mother didn’t abandon me, my real mother wouldn’t have come to save me. The best thing you can do is give love to a kid, cause that kid may grow up to be in The Rock Hall of Fame one day!”

 

Jam Master Jay’s mother Connie Mizell-Perry stood on behalf of the legendary DJ, who was murdered in his Queens studio in October of 2002.

 

“Jason and I had a bond different than my other two children, he was like me,” Mrs. Mizell-Perry said. “He loved giving, he didn’t put a price tag on the things he did for someone. I’m not surprised to be here tonight. Anything you ask for you get and the boys deserve it.”

Rick Ross’ Triple C’s Ink Deal With Def Jam

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: News

Rick Ross may have 50 Cent and his forthcoming album, Deeper Than Rap, on his mind, but the rapper recently took time out to provide a boost for his group, Carol City Cartel (Triple C’s).

 

Sources told AllHipHop.com that Ross has secured a distribution deal for the collective through Def Jam Records.

 

The new deal provided an opportunity for the Miami rapper to introduce the newest Triple C’s member, Young’n Breed.

 

The Maybach Music Group artist’s alliance with the group as well as the distribution deal comes as a major milestone for everyone involved.

 

“On my first trip ever to New York I showcased for LA Reid and celebrated our deal with Jay Z, Timbaland and Nas – it don’t get better than that,” Breed said.

 

Prior to the deal, Triple C’s was known for their association with Ross, who recently spent time in New York collaborating with R&B crooner Ryan Leslie for the song “Diamonds and Maybachs” and working out details for the video to the Nas-featured tune “Usual Suspects.”

 

The group, which also includes rappers Gunplay and Torch, has appeared on Ross’ debut album Port of Miami as well as the rap star’s 2008 sophomore opus Trilla.

 

The Def Jam deal comes as Ross gears up for the release of Deeper Than Rap.

 

Maybach Music Group, Def Jam, XO Management and Serious Promotions will celebrate the album’s release on April 20.

 

Invited guests for the event include Jay-Z, Nas and Timbaland.

 

Deeper Than Rap is Ross’ follow-up to Trilla.

 

The release, which spawned the hit singles “The Boss” featuring T-Pain and “Here I Am” featuring Nelly and Avery Storm, debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 album chart upon its first week of release.

 

Ross, who is currently engaged in a war of words with rap rival 50 Cent, is currently enjoying the success of his latest hit, the John Legend-assisted “Magnificent.”

 

The tune is the first single from Deeper than Rap, which is slated to hit stores April 21.

Bone Thug Reunion Derailed: Flesh Arrested With Gun, Drugs

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: News

Just months after being released from prison and and reuniting with Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, group member Flesh-N-Bone is back in prison for violating his probation.

 

Flesh, born Stanley Howse, was pulled over yesterday (April 2) in Canyon County, California, for driving with a defective brake light.

 

A search of his vehicle turned up unnamed narcotics and a firearm, in direct violation of his probation.

 

Flesh was released from prison in July of 2008, after serving over nine years in prison, which derailed his career as a member of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, a rap group that has sold over 30 million records.

 

He appeared on the group’s critically acclaimed 1994 debut Creepin on Ah Come Up and the follow up full length, E. 1999 Eternal, released in 1995.

 

Flesh released his debut solo album T.H.U.G.S.: Trues Humbly United Gatherin’ Souls in 1996.

 

A year later, he was arrested when police raided his home and found a stolen gun and explosives.

 

In September of 1999, Flesh was finally sentenced to ten years for threatening a friend with an AK-47.

 

Flesh was released from prison on July 13, 2008, and has since reunited with Bone Thugs-N-Harmony.

 

“Words can’t even begin to explain the feeling that I had after being locked down for damn near a decade,” Flesh told AllHipHop.com shortly after his release. “The best way for me to describe it is to tell you that it was like a rebirth, a second chance at a new life, and a relief. It was over the top. I’ll never forget it. I thank God for giving me the immense blessing of the sense of complete freedom.”

 

Flesh-N-Bone is currently being held at the Santa Clarita jail and is not eligible for bond.  “At this time all the facts have not been revealed publicly, however I can assure you 100% that Mr. Howse has not walked backwards,” a rep for Bone Thugs-N-Harmony told AllHipHop.com. “We live in a great American country where one is innocent until proven guilty.”
