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

Cash Money Records’ founders Bryan “Birdman” Williams and Ronald “Slim” Williams will give back to the city of New Orleans this holiday season with their 13th Annual Turkey Giveaway.

 

The brothers will host the giveaway on November 24 in New Orleans, to help those less fortunate, including those who continue to be affected by the devastation inflicted upon the city by Hurricane Katrina.

 

Between 1,400 – 1,600 turkeys will be given away during the event, which is sponsored by their philanthropic organization, The Johnny and Gladys Williams Foundation, in memory of their parents.

 

“This makes us feel just as good as those getting the turkeys,” Ronald ‘Slim’ Williams told AllHipHop.com in a statement. “It means a lot to us to be able to use our success to help others not as fortunate.”

 

The brothers have set up a number of non-profit organizations to give back to the city of New Orleans.

 

They recently launched a new effort, the Cash Money for Kids Program, which rewards students for academic performance with free tickets to a New Orleans Hornet game.

 

“This is our way of giving back to the community & that City of New Orleans that Cash Money owes its heart and soul to,” added Bryan ‘Birdman’ Williams.

 

Cash Money is home to a number of hit artists, including Lil Wayne, Drake, Jay Sean, Nicki Minaj and others.

 

The label’s 13th Annual Turkey Giveaway takes place from 2:00 – 5:00 PM on November 24 at Taylor Park.

Bushwick Bill’s Gospel LP Hits Stores This December

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

Former Geto Boys rapper Bushwick Bill will release a Hip-Hop gospel album next month.

 

Bushwick’s Testimony of Redemption will drop December 1 on G-S.P.O.T. Productions.

 

According to reports, the label name is an acronym for “God’s Special Purpose of Talent.”

 

The rapper’s sixth solo album chronicles his tumultuous life and his road to spiritual awakening after a violent incident in May of 1991 with an ex-girlfriend that left him without an eye.

 

Bushwick recently dropped a video for the first single from the album also titled “Testimony of Redemption,” which features cameos by Lil Wayne, Busta Rhymes and others.

 

Other tracks on the album include “Praise of a Good Woman” and “Renewed Mind,” which is a play off the Geto Boys’ classic single “Mind Playing Tricks on Me.”

 

In related news, former Geto Boys member Scarface told AllHipHop.com that there will never be another Geto Boys reunion.

 

The Geto Boys officially disbanded in 1998, after a series of lineup changes.

 

The group reunited briefly in 2005 to release The Foundation in 2005.

 

While Scarface was adamant that there was no bad blood between the group, which also included Willie D., he simply stated that he could no longer tolerate working with his former band mates.

 

While Bushwick Bill promotes his new gospel album, Scarface is working on a new mixtape.

 

Willie D. is currently facing 20 years in prison for his alleged role in an international scam involving iPhones.

 

In July he pleaded not guilty to 15 counts of wire fraud.

Kool G Rap: Man At Work

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

The Kool Genius of Rap forged a new rap language which was born in the park jams of NYC during Hip-Hop’s infancy.A true music legend of the highest caliber, Kool G Rap made his mark as the most eloquent lyricist of the world renowned Juice Crew, one of Hip-Hop’s earliest and most influential super-groups. Though his rap acumen is well known, some may be surprised that even as a teenager G Rap was an avid crate digger, bringing in scores of samples for Marley Marl to arrange for his debut record Road to the Riches, now enjoying its 20th anniversary. From being steeped in the streets of Queens Bridge to mastering the craft of an emcee, Kool G Rap saw the evolution of Hip-Hop as its history unfolded and remains relevant with new styles throughout each subsequent generation as he continues to build his timeless catalog.

 

This begins an unprecedented 3-part interview with Kool G Rap, his life, his times and all things past and present.

 Gentle Jones:  What’s

the word on the new album? 

Kool G Rap:  I’m still

working on Offer You Can’t Refuse. I’m kinda playing Dr. Dre

and taking my time, so that everything is right. I got a Just Blaze

track on there, I got tracks from Domingo. I’m definitely sitting on

some heat, and I’m not finished.  

Gentle Jones:  So what

else have you got cooking? 

Kool G Rap:  Let me tell

you the big secret, right now I am in the beginning stages of putting

a gator shoe line, called Giancanna Gators.  

Gentle Jones:  You are

gonna be killing them in church.  

Kool G Rap:  (Laughs)

I’m a big fan of Maury’s, they’ve been around since possibly the late

60’s. I started rocking Maury Gator hard bottom shoes and then they

start coming out with the sneaker versions and they look hot. Some of

them are maybe leather and gator, sometimes all gator, maybe lizard,

ostrich. A combination of precious skins. That’s all I wear. I want

to do the s### that I like. I got somebody doing designs for the ladies

line and I’ve already picked out 3 or 4 of the ladies shoes. We get

everything built original from the sole through the whole make up of

the shoe. This is not gonna be like somebody’s shoes and we attach our

name on it. We have to do a molding for the sole, for the upper part

of the shoe, the whole shoe basically. 

“I know there was drug usage. Mostly

anybody was using drugs. Cocaine wasn’t nothing to be ashamed of at

that time. That was out in the open, in the public, in the club, in the

VIP section…”-Kool G Rap

 AllHipHop.com: DJ Roc Raida recently passed, did you two work together?

 

Kool G Rap: DJ Roc Raida, that was my man, he used to DJ for me at my shows after me and Polo split up. I hadn’t spoken to him in years and then we touched base last year for the first time, we were talking about starting to do things again. I heard he needed back surgery or something like that. I thought we was out of the woods as far as life and death were concerned. We established a real close relationship. It was the 4,5,6 era. It was my first time going solo without DJ Polo, it was like a brand new day for me, I was stepping out on my own. It was a good time for me. Roc Raida became a part of that because I needed a DJ and I was cool with a couple people in the X-Men. I had Dr. Butcher, he was like a monster on the wheels and he recommended to me that I should do some shows with Roc Raida. He popped a tape in my VCR of one of the DMC Championships and Roc Raida’s set, when I seen this kid, I never seen no DJ do what Roc did, I was completely blown the f*ck away. He was amazing. And I remember cats like Peter Parker, DJ Cashmoney, Jazzy Jeff and them. But I never seen nobody quite do the sh*t I seen Roc Raida do, like putting the f*cking mixer on his back and cutting back and forth. He would get loose on the stage. Like we would have a segment when we would just put the spotlight on him, I would stand back and watch and be just as entertained as the crowd. He never ceased to amaze me, his talent and skills with those turntables.

 

AllHipHop.com: He was certainly ahead of his time, it’s fitting that you worked together since your style was always futuristic since the beginning.

 

Kool G Rap: Thank you. It means a lot for you to recognize that. A lot of people did say I was ahead of my time, especially back then. The times have finally caught up now. For me to be coming out ‘88, ‘89 and flowing the way I was flowing, and playing with the words, just showing the wordplay and metaphors. I definitely was ahead of my time.

 “It’s a hell of a job being a rapper,

being a lyricist. Its way hell of a harder job than a regular

songwriter. Rock songs are 12 lines…Hip-Hop you

have to write three verses of different words, and to be a credible

lyricist…”-Kool G Rap

AllHipHop.com: Hip-Hop has expanded the possibilities a songwriter can explore, you’ve always taken advantage of that.

 

Kool G Rap: It’s a hell of a job being a rapper, being a lyricist. Its way hell of a harder job than a regular songwriter. Rock songs, or songs in general, it may be 12 lines and maybe they repeat it twice and they have some choruses and maybe a couple of bridges and that’s a complete record. Whereas Hip-Hop you have to write three verses of different words, and to be a credible lyricist you gotta play with the words, you gotta stand out because you don’t wanna sound like any Joe Schmo just picking up the mic for the first time. You got to be very clever with your wordplay, your metaphors, and your flows. That’s what being a lyricist is to me.

 

AllHipHop.com: What drove you to take your lyrics to the level that you did?

 

Kool G Rap: I’m very competitive. I wanted to box before I even rapped. And the first day I went to a boxing gym, the next day they closed down for good, can you f*cking believe that? The gym was around for years, one of my homies, his older brother used to go to that gym. So the gym was around. As soon as I go there, and then I go there the next time to go back, the f###### gym is shut down for good, they said, “There’s no boxing here no more.” I was so much wanting to box, I used to bring boxing gloves out in the streets and try to box people, even if somebody knocked my head off. I just wanted to learn, I wanted to be good at it. I knew dudes like Kevin Kelly, the Flushing Flash, I went to high school with him. I was in like 9th grade then. It was the same time I started to write that I wanted to box. But if I would of got in that ring I definitely would have knocked a couple of f*cking heads off.

 

AllHipHop.com: I heard that when you were a kid you were deep in the streets. Were you just fighting or doing illegal stuff or what?

 

Kool G Rap: When I was a kid in the streets I was doing illegal stuff and I was around illegal stuff. Some of the dudes I used to be around was pretty much famous dudes in the streets. My man Rah-Rah, they made a movie about my man with LL and Omar Epps called In Too Deep, that was about my man Rah-Rah but they used to call him God out in Boston. These dudes left Corona and went to Boston and made millions. I been around a lot of sh*t. If you turn Eric B and Rakim’s first album around you see me on the back there with Eric and all of them and f*cking the original 50 cent.

 

AllHipHop.com: Were drugs a problem for the Juice Crew?

 

Kool G Rap: I know there was drug usage. Mostly anybody was using drugs. Cocaine wasn’t nothing to be ashamed of at that time. That was out in the open, in the public, in the club, in the VIP section, the dudes that has coke and a hundred dollar bill, these was the dudes that had all the money, all the jewelry, all the woman, all the cars, these was the dudes who had names in the hood for being notorious or for being rich off the streets. The same place you see the dudes with the coke, you see the bottles of Dom P, you see all that. Nobody was even trying to hide certain things back in them days. So there was definitely drug usage because we was like the kids from the disco era, where everybody was flaunting cocaine, glorifying cocaine. We the kids from that era, there was disco and cocaine and that was it.

Coolio On Boxing Match: ‘I Don’t Plan On Losing’

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

Rap star Coolio has officially replaced DMX in an upcoming celebrity boxing match taking place in Alabama on December 12.

 

DMX was originally slated to face off against Albuquerque, New Mexico-based fighter Eric Martinez for three rounds, but pulled out when fighters refused to fix the fight or guarantee his safety.

The Location of these performances will be announced. This event is going to be the most entertaining MMA event Birmingham has ever seen.”

 

Tickets are on sale now at all ticket master locations.

Investigators Pursue Scammer Booking Fake Drake Shows

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

Cortez Bryant, manager for rap superstar Lil Wayne has become the victim of a scam artist who is using fake aliases on the Internet to secure bookings for the chart-topping rapper, as well as others, specifically Drake.

 

Bryant owns Bryant Management, which handles the managerial duties for Drake, along with company Hip Hop Since 1978.

 

An imposter has been using Twitter accounts and fake Gmail accounts to accept money for the artists, which is then pocketed.

 

The Chambers Group, which handles press for Cortez Bryant issued a statement to AllHipHop.com in regards to the fraud.

 

“It has come to light that an individual has been impersonating Bryant Management CEO Cortez Bryant for financial gain through false bookings of his clients, specifically the much buzzed about recording artist Drake,” a rep for Bryant told AllHipHop.com.

 

The imposter has created bogus twitter (such as twitter.com/Tezpoe) and email accounts (such as [email protected]) in Bryant’s name which he then utilizes to secure and pocket deposits for false bookings and club appearances. Bryant Management, who counts rap powerhouse Lil Wayne among their clientele and was recently celebrated for their record breaking summer tour America’s Most Wanted Music Festival, is fully cooperating with the investigation and confident that the individual will be apprehended in a timely manner.”

 

Drake is booked solely through ICM Talent and Literary Agency.

 

Over the years, several men have been arrested for posing as booking agents for rappers and collecting the deposits for their own gain.

 

Last month, Jesse Manuel Munoz was arrested for scamming victims out of over $500,000 in real estate scams, in addition to a scheme booking that involved illegally booking rapper Pitbull for fake shows.

 

In 2005, a man named Scott Elkins was sentenced to 45 days in jail for promoting a series of bogus concerts featuring Lil Jon and Lil Flip.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Beyonce’s Preg? 50 Cent Gets Back With Viv? Country Stars Diss Kanye!

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

DISCLAIMER:

 

All

content within this section is pure rumor and generally have no factual

info outside of what the streets have whispered in our ear. Read on.BEYONCE’S PREGNANT?????

 

 

I have been told that this is a masterpiece of a rumor. Remember yesterday we said Jay-Z had an urgent matter with Beyonce? Well, a lot of people speculated that it was drama! I have been informed that the rumor has a much brighter side. Sources inside Beyonce’s camp are saying that  BEYONCE IS PREGNANT! Now, this remains a big MIGHT, but I’m hearing B is “missing something” if you catch the drift. Don’t want to give you all a TMI moment. But this is supposedly the reason why Jay has been far more attentive. You know Jay wants that kid! B isn’t quite as hype off of kids from what I gathered in the media reports, but I am sure she recognizes a blessing when she feels it! OK, shut up illseed. If it matters, the source says this rumor is “golden.”

 

 

SEED UNIT GETS AT 50 CENT!

 

Ztothee is officially the first member of “Seed Unit,” my crew of eyes and ears across the world! Wanna be in Seed Unit, email me! Nevertheless, Z was out in his respective hood of Houston and had the chance to interview 50 Cent….well interview is a bit much. He got to chat with 50 Cent for a few. He told 50 Cent how much he liked the BISD movie (which I heard was good too). Anyway, he asked 50 Cent if Beanie would do better with G-Unit than Roc-A-Fella and 50 said something like, “Of course, because there is more promotion (at G-Unit). He also said that he was not causing beef with Jay-Z on purpose. He said he’s tired of watching Jay try to be something he’s not. SEED-UNIT!   

 

Check out Z’s music: Www.myspace.com/ppmprecords

 

Here are some other things he heard.

 

-That 50 things Drake reminds him of Ja Rule a bit, but Ja sounds much worse in his opinion. I don’t think he was dissing Drake though.

 

50 Cent also said that Triple C’s wanted to be on G-Unit at first but failed.

 

50 reportedly joked about leaking Fat Joe’s album on his site, but I dnt think that was true. When I DL’d it, it was a bunch of G-Unit songs.

 

50 Cent reportedly named his pet dog “Oprah.” OH MAN….

 

50 Cent didn’t answer questions pertaining to Ciara or Kelly Rowland. HE pulled a page out of SoulJa Boy’s book.

 

50 Cent joked that Vivica Fox was in his next video, but its actually Tahiry, Joe Budden’s ex-girl. 50 didn’t seem to be kidding so…..

 

All that I just wrote, here is a partial video:

 

 

That one dude just laughed a lil too hard. “OHHHHH FIF, YOU’RE TOO FUNNNY!!!!! OHHHHHHHHH, HAHAHA, FIF!!!!!”

 

 

 

REMEMBER THE SUGE KNIGHT / 50 CENT RUMOR?

 

If you don’t read yesterdays rumors, because this goes straight from that. I talked to somebody that worked where they shot the video and they told me the rumor yesterday was dead on true. They said,  “That was a crazy night. No one was shot, but beat up bodies were found EVERYWHERE; behind the local Trader Joe’s etc..” The source said this may have caused some issues for Suge later down the line, but his mark was left that night! 

 

CAM’RON SIGHTING: ENJOYING LIFE

 

I can appreciate how Cam’ron is living. He seems to be enjoying life and chilling. One of my readers owns a store in Florida and saw Cam last night. This was in Orlando and Killa came through and bought a box of Palma Dutch Master’s (he wanted the regular cognac ones, but they only had the cigarillos in cognac). Anyway, after speaking to one of his regular customers about it, he informed my reader that Cam’s mother lives in Kissimmee and that Cam probably lives down in FL. He said Cam was real cool and drove off. I wish I could live that life…the life of Cam.

 

Cam should give Katt a call.

 

ROBIN THICKE TALKS BABY NAMES AND JOHN MAYER BEEF!

I’m telling you all…there is a conspiracy! Check out this first hand account about Wale:

 

 

illSeed,

This is in response the distro problem Wale is having.  Tuesday I go into the Best Buy in Woodbridge, VA, with the impression that they would have tons on hand since this is the DMV.  This the same Best Buy that I bought my Slaughterhouse CD at.  When I bought the SH I had to ask for it because it was not on the shelves but the website said they had in stock.  While in the store on Tuesday, I saw 3 other people ask for Wale and I didn’t even have to ask myself, they were sold out.  I came home to see what stores had and the only thing they had on the website was the vinyl (as of Tuesday).  I just checked Thursday night and every Best Buy in my area has it in stock!!  Interscope needs to step their game up!!

 

PHOTOG THAT MIKE HIT TALKS

 

They need some laws to protect people from these paps. They are going to keep getting beat up!

 

 

ILLSEED’S QUICKIES

 

Shout out to Tehran from DC!

 

Gucci Mane in Jail for a year…fail!

 

I can’t lie. I didn’t listen to this song, but its Jacki-O dissing Fat Joe, Khaled and Lola Luv. But the song is a dedication to Remy MA. Click here to hear it.

 

For anybody asking, I have Manny Pacquiao winning the fight with Miguel Cotto.

 

Michael Jackson reportedly wanted to clone himself. MJ reportedly underwent several three dimensional scans in 1996 so a virtual reality ‘robotic’ twin could be produced.

 

SIGNS THE WORLD IS COMING TO AN END

 

Check out this story from the AP:

 

LOS ANGELES — A woman under police protection was fatally stabbed while officers were just steps away in the Mid-City section of Los Angeles.

 

It happened inside a second-story apartment on Cochran Street near Pico Boulevard just before midnight, according to Los Angeles Fire Department Capt. Rick McClure.

 

A man whom police already knew about climbed into the woman’s apartment while two officers sat in a patrol car outside, investigators said.

 

The officers had taken the woman back to her apartment after she filed a domestic violence report.

 

The officers were filling out a crime report when someone ran up to their patrol car and said a woman was being stabbed, Police spokesman Bruce Borihanh said.

 

The officers ran into the apartment, saw the man attacking the woman and shot him, Borihanh said.

 

The suspect and the woman were taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center where they were pronounced dead, officials said. Their identities have not been released.

 

It’s believed the man reached the second-floor apartment from the roof, then climbed in a bathroom window, Detective Gus Villanueva said.

 

The two were said to have been romantically involved in the past.

 

EPIC F**K YOU OF THE DAY

 

So, peep it yall. As I can see it, the Kanye West thingy with Taylor Swift is OVER and has been over for a minute. Kanye has been laying low and has apologized. Dude even admitted the reasons for his behavior. The source was HIS MOTHER DYING and his inability to mourn. Now, look a what these country music idiots go do? Disrespect Kanye on levels that I would fight for him over. As much as I didn’t like what Kanye did, he’s Hip-Hop “family” and these schmucks are nothing to me.

 

                                     

Get the hell outta here, you bums!

 

NEW JASIRI X!

 

Rappers are just going with the plan. They need to watch the news and if they did, they wouldn’t be so able to be pawns! Right, Jasiri? Check out the vid!

 

 

WHAT THE HELL?

 

Look at this dude…he’s a a damn soccer game and he’s brushing his teeth!

 

Sup to Dave ‘Wesey’ Westcott of Ace City Entertainment!

 CHANCE ENCOUNTERS!Check out Chance’s rumors! This is not illseed….this is Chance!!!!KEEP IT IN YOUR PANTS DUDE

I told you yesterday that Shaq’s wife filed for divorce and moved back to LA with the kids

after details about Shaq’s affair with Gilbert Arenas’ fiance hit the

net; and now details about a whole ‘nother family Shaq has on the side

are coming out.  Word is he’s housing a former stripper and her one

year old son in Ohio.  He’s been living with them for a while in

Cleveland and he’s been able to get away with it since his soon to be

ex-wife stayed in Miami with the kids when Shaq became a Cavalier. 

Word is the baby may even be his, since about a year ago there were

rumors that he was cheating with said stripper.

P.S. Shaunie

moved back to LA before filing for divorce because California is pretty

much 50/50 with divorces.  Smart move on her part.GOING OFF

Everybody is waiting for that 50 Cent and Beanie Sigel track “I Go Off”, well here it is. At first it doesn’t sound like a Jay-Z diss from Beans, but then then  50 Cent gets on the mic  and that idea goes to squat!  Hear it:

WE SEE YOU

Everyone was saying Kanye dropped Amber when he took his break from the spotlight but it doesn’t look like thats the case.  They were spotted on a date last night at The Vatican in Italy, holding hands and looking pretty coupleish.  This is one of the first pictures I’ve seen of ‘Ye in a long time … it’s like spotting bigfoot:

GET A TWITTER; STAY FREE

YES!!!  Everyone who is talking negative about Twitter and Facebook yoou might want to get one to stay out of jail.  This guy was arrested for mugging somebody but got the charges dropped because an update he posted to Facebook saying “Where’s my pancakes” at the time of the robbery proved he was on the computer and not in somebody elses pockets.  This is the first time a judge has accepted a status update as an alibi.

CANT ROCK WIT YOU O

I think Omarion is a cool dude but I just can’t rock with him on this statement.  Dude said he doesn’t like girls who like girls because they lack “class”.  He even comes out and names Amber Rose as one of those “classless” hoes.  SMH…If you saw the pictures I posted yesterday you wouldn’t agree either.

RIRI’s DEMANDS

So when you book an artist for a show they send a document known as a rider.  The rider lists all the artists demands and what the promoter needs to do to make them feel comfortable.  Well Rihanna’s rider hit the net yesterday and I’d say it looks pretty standard but she does have some interesting demands like “boiled eggs, turkey bacon and turkey sausage” on deck ANYTIME during the day…just in case.  Click here to read the rest of her demands.

Here’s a preview of her new video:

CHRIS ON 106

Chris Brown will catch up with Rocsi tonight on 106 & Park (taped yesterday).  He’s still taking the humble route and not trying to show Rihanna in a negative light which I salute him for.  I’m sure nobody believes she wasn’t an active participant that night until he took it too far; so I don’t really need either of them to confirm that…I’ve seen it happen too many times

HOLD YA HEAD BOOSIE

Even if you hate  when people tell you that.  Boosie is preparing to go in and he’s a little upset claiming he’s not getting a fair deal seeing as this is his first offense.  He says Jesse Jackson should jump on the cause and do what he does.  But it looks like Boosie is going to have a lot of opportunities when he gets out.  He’s already being offered bundles of cash for the first Saturday he is released.  How does he plan to pass the 4 years??  He says he’s “…just gonna be in there chilling, looking at pictures, beating [his] d**k to bad b######.”

I’M JUST SAYIN’

My Crack Distributors team and I hosted a listening party for Rakim’s new album yesterday…GET THE ALBUM WHEN IT DROPS…it’s dope…Rakim even cosigned Maino, whose on the album, calling him “the truth”.

Amy Winehouse is thinking about getting some butt implants after her breast implants came out so well…looks like she’s trying to change up her crackhead-chic look.

Remember when I told you Joe Jackson was trying to get his hands on some of MJ’s money … the judge says it’s not gonna happen.

Fergie credits Kanye West for making Hip-Hop more “gay-friendly” … especially the way folks are dressing.

I’m hearing Jay-Z cancelling those tour dates to be with Jay-Z are more about him making sure she’s not creeping than getting some QT in…rumor is she’s getting it in with one of her staff members.

Illseed posted pics of Tahiry and 50 Cent the other day with the caption “So did he?”…well I hear he did…thats gotta hurt Joey.

I didn’t even know T-Boz had “The Swine Flu”…her and her daughter got the flu and she got the Swine strand … she’s good now though.

Baloon boys parents are going to plead guilty tommorow and the prosecutor has reccomended proobabtion…can someone get those kids away from them too???

Sammy Sosa was claiming his skin whitening was the result of some medicl treatment but he’s admitted he used a bleaching cream before he goes to sleep to “soften” his skin.

Kim Kardashians little sister (14) has some “sexy-styled” pictures on the net … looks like she’s following in big sis’s footsteps.

Drake says he’s not a good freestyler and thats why he had his blackberry out at Flex…I dont get caught up in wether it’s off the top cuz most people who take pride in “freestyling” suck…I just want to hear some hot s**t I dont care how long or fast it takes you to come up with it.

Wale says he loves Solange.

50, Beanie Track ‘I Go Off’ Debuts

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

Philadelphia rapper Beanie Sigel unveiled his brand new collaboration G-Unit CEO 50 Cent today, Friday the 13th (November 13).

 

50 Cent’s website Thisis50.com posted a snippet of the highly anticipated collaboration track “I Go Off” earlier this week, while the full version debuted on Cosmic Kev’s show on Power 99FM in Philadelphia this morning (November 13).

 

Beanie Sigel and 50 Cent announced a partnership during a promotional film screening for 50 Cent’s directorial debut, Before I Self Destruct.

 

The new track “I Go Off” is the latest chapter in 50 Cent and Beanie Sigel’s ongoing war of words with rapper Jay-Z.

 

While Sigel doesn’t mention Jay-Z by name on his verse, 50 Cent takes the Roc’s CEO head on at the end of the verse.

 

“You changed man. You let the money change you Jay..you’s a ‘pass the Grey Poupon’ n***a. N***a feed the wolves or the wolves eat you. Eat your ass alive.”

 

Tensions have existed between Jay-Z and 50 Cent, who has taken several shots at Jay-Z in interview over the past month, in addition to poking fun at him in his video “Flight 187.”

 

Beanie Sigel’s issues with Jay-Z are the result of the fallout caused by the break up of Hip-Hop label Roc-A-Fella Records, which at one point featured Philly rappers like Freeway, Chris and Neef, Oshino and Sparks and Peedi Crakk.

 

On the track “What You Talkin Bout (I Ain’t Your Average Cat),” Sigel accused Jay-Z of underpaying Roc-A-Fella’s top artists, in addition to abandoning him and acts that were signed to the label.

 

Jay-Z replied to Sigel‘s diss record during a Canadian press conference with larueduhiphop.com.

 

“What people choose to do when they obtain that type of success, at some point you gotta look in the mirror and look at yourself,” Jay stated. “Beanie Sigel had a record deal, a record label and a clothing line…and never went platinum. Ever. I don’t know in the history of rap has anyone done so much with so little. So, I don’t know what more can you do for a person at that point. A record deal – that’s normal. A record label and a clothing line. If that’s not pushing the person…s**t.”

 

Sigel denied Jay-Z’s implication that Roc-A-Fella provided him with anything other than a record deal.

 

“It’s not like you helped me attain all this wealth and gave me the two Bentleys. You didn’t give me a record label,” Sigel told Mikey Dread and Uncle O during a screening in Philadelphia for 50 Cent’s film Before I Self Destruct.

 

“It only cost a couple hundred dollars to search the name ‘State Property Records,’ nobody owned it; I think I paid another couple hundred dollars and I patented the LLC,” Sigel retorted. “So my record label only cost me $750, to say on a piece of paper that I own State Property Records, LLC. I did that on my own, you didn’t give me that. And what artists was on that label?”

 

50 Cent’s new album Before I Self Destruct is due in stores on November 17.

 

Beanie Sigel’s status as an official G-Unit artist could not be confirmed at press time.

22 News:22 Reasons Why Nothing’s Changed

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

I swear history just travels in unimaginative circles. The same issues our fathers faced in their day, we are facing now in this post-millennium BS that we call modern society. After years of lying history books, recycled headlines, uninspired lectures, and cheesy fireside chats, I’ve grown hip to the fact that significant people, places, and things revisit us over and over in different vessels. So, in honor of the Jay-Z song “22 Twos” and being old enough to see history repeating itself before my eyes, here are “22 News.”

1.     Beyonce is the new Diana Ross.

The lovely torch for diva-incarnate has been passed. Beyonce is as iconic as the Motown legend, with less made-for-TV drama. Destiny’s Child was the new Supremes. I’m just waiting for 2024 when one of ex-members of DC get strung on coke, making way for Dream Chicks starring Keke Palmer as Kelly Rowland.

2.     Cornrows were the new Afros (until Carmelo Anthony and Allen Iverson got rid of theirs).

In the 70’s everybody and their mama had a ‘fro. In early 2000’s, everybody and their mama had cornrows. I mean everybody. Lil Bow Wow, Ludacris, Alicia Keys…David Beckham, Kevin Federline. Now cats are either back to Caesars or walking around with those iffy ‘Frohawks.

3.     The recession is the new Depression (maybe not).

Ok so the recession is definitely not the Depression. But the Lehman Brothers’ collapse gave those dudes in the three pieces minor strokes for a few weeks. Plus more homeowners have defaulted on their mortgages this past year than hood Chinese food restaurants have been robbed. It may not be Of Mice and Men out here, but times is hard.

4.     Barack Obama is the new Martin Luther King Jr.

And “Yes, We Can” is the new “I Have a Dream”. Now instead writing cliché essays on their favorite civil rights leader, students across America are writing cliché essays on their favorite president. Let’s just hope sixty years from now, there are no liquor stores on Obama Boulevard.

5.    Ron Artest is the new Dennis Rodman

Dennis Rodman wore 91. Ron Artest wore 96. Both were hired by championship teams who felt muscle was the missing puzzle piece in their dynasties. Both have mindfucked their opponents on the basketball court. Rodman, through dyed hair and sexual psychology. Artest, through temper tantrums and “prison rules” defense. Oh yeah, both are randomly supporters of PETA.

6.     Air Force Ones are the new Air Force Ones

As validated by the sneaker’s 27 year old history. Put it this way, what do a seventeen year old and a 43 year old have in common? They both wore Forces when they were sixteen.

7.     Tupac is the new Malcolm X.

And Thug Life is the new Nation of Islam? Sounds weird, but let’s really think about this. Both ‘Pac and Malcolm were fiery orators. Both icons have made a stronger impact after death than when they were living. Both had memorable beefs. Malcolm with the honorable Elijah Muhammad, Tupac, of course with the Notorious B.I.G. There’s still some debate as to how political Tupac was during his life, but the other similarities all but suggest reincarnation.

8.    Lil Wayne is the new Tupac

Though Wayne has yet to brandish his on screen finesse, the New Orleans omni-lyricist parallels the great ‘Pac in many ways. Both have that lugie-spitting I-don’t-give-a-f###-ness and both love showing their chests off. Plus, look at the work ethic. God forbid Wayne meets an untimely demise. Do you know how many posthumous mixtapes will be swarming out there?

9.    Floyd Mayweather Jr. is the new Sugar Ray Leonard

Pretty Boy and Sugar Ray have combined for 76 wins and 3 losses. They’ve split their combined 50 knockouts dead even. Leonard’s 80’s flash and vigor is Mayweather’s post-millennium swag and bravado.

10. 30 is the new 20

With more and more people enrolling in graduate school, accruing those loans, and putting off marriage and children to their middle ages, life is starting later and later these days. Jay-Z perceived it on the Kingdom Come (even though he’s nearly forty) and a whole platoon of middle-aged 90’s rappers rejoiced.

11.   Weed is the new Tobacco

In Massachusetts, marijuana possession is no longer a criminal offense. Plus, celebrities, drug dealers, and radical doctors have done all they can to demystify weed’s unhealthy side effects. Just like with gay marriage, American will fall into place the same way with legalization—state by state. Stay tuned for the THC patch y’all.

12.  Las Vegas is the new Los Angeles

It is not uncommon to catch a glimpse of someone like Ben Affleck at the poker table or see the whole front row at Caesar’s Palace lined with celebrities for a world-class boxing match. If Los Angeles is where average joes like me go to see celebrities, Las Vegas is where celebrities see celebrities.

13.  Brazil is the new Las Vegas

Remember, prostitution is legal in Nevada, not Las Vegas. So, you might find your chin to the pavement the next time you try to fulfill that sex vacation that you and your pool buddies have been entranced by. Brazil is the new spot. Ask any barbershop in the hood, Rio makes even the most underwhelming libido seem like it’s been souped up on goat weed.

14.  Global Warming is the new Ice Age

I know…why think the destruction of the world into existence? Well, I’m just reminding everyone that we’re only a few factory puffs, gas guzzlers, and carbon emissions away from being on the next What Happened to H### Sapiens?  NOVA documentary. Unless we want to steal shine from the wholly mammoth, this is not a good look.

15. September 11th is the new Pearl Harbor

C’mon, are you really gonna fight me on this one? September 11th is the new Pearl Harbor because September 11th was the first attack on American soil since Pearl Harbor. I’m just making sure I eat my veggies so I can be one of the last living people from that era and make money reminiscing about the fateful day to a bunch of narcotic sixth graders.

16. BET is the new Black Face

It’s been few years now, so it should really be BET is the old Black Face. On any given Sunday, count on young black kids—and young white kids still forming their impressions of the African-American race—to be tuning in and getting their daily dose of rim spinning, baby-mama cursing, champagne-poppin’, sizzurp-slurping, grill-flashing indoctrination. Stay tuned ten years later when The GS Boyz get a lifetime achievement award.

17.  College is the new High School

And the administrative assistant is the new factory worker. What does a Bachelor’s degree get you nowadays anyway? A piece of paper and $30,000 of debt? Plus, with online programs and accelerated curricula, more and more folks have access to higher learning.

18. Compact Discs are the new Vinyls

I get this nouveau vision of the future, when I have kids and we’ve gone from laptop downloads to frontal lobe brain chips, that that my seeds  will discover a hoard of all my CDs—The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, Aquemini, Illmatic— in the attic. It’ll be just like the vinyls I discovered as a child, Thriller, Songs in the Key of Life, What’s Going On. The music itself transcends the outdatedness of the medium.

19. No One is the new Jordan or Jackson

Who? Kobe, Lebron? Chris Brown, Usher? Those of us who came of age in the 80’s and 90’s have turned into those contemporary culture-condemning grouches. Maybe we are just cynics, but it’s hard to foresee another Brian Russell buzzer beater or Moonwalk anytime soon. Honestly, it’s gonna take more than a lifetime for these legends to be eclipsed.

20. Usain Bolt is the new Michael Johnson

Literally. After supplanting Johnson’s world record in the men’s 400, Usain became the unequivocal fastest man in the cosmos. Johnson’s gold boots have reincarnated into the lightning bolt pose. Needless to say, swag is a shape-shifter.

21.  Flying While Middle Eastern is the new Driving While Black

Have you been on an airplane with a man in a turban and felt guilty at your own uneasiness? Airport searches are random for everyone except for those of Arabic descent. For us minorities, it’s racial profiling on suburban roads. For them, it’s racial profiling over friendly skies.

22.  Iraq is the new Vietnam

Says the anti-war demonstrations, innocent soldier casualties, protest songs, inflammatory editorials, attacking pundits, lying conservatives, media monopolizing, demonized foreign leaders, and imperial interests that seem recycled straight outta the shaggy-haired 60’s.

There you have it. Life is just the same soup reheated. So next time you go googling Paris Hilton or stalking Halle Berry, say to yourself, “Am I stalking the next hot thing or a freaky, historical ghost of the past?” History tries to play you like that. Marinate.

Lil Kim Refutes Skipped Tour Accusations

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

Lil Kim has released a statement addressing claims that she pocketed $20,000 and then refused to fulfill six concert obligations for Abstrakt Visions Entertainment.

 

The company states that they paid the Brooklyn emcee $20,000 to complete six dates in London from November 7-14.

 

However, they accuse Kim of pulling out due to a nosebleed and returning to the U.S. with all the show proceeds.

 

Speaking through a representative, Lil Kim explained to AllHipHop.com that she never received any money from Abstrakt Visions Entertainment, and is the victim of an unethical promotion campaign.

 

“We do not have a contract with Abstrakt Visions Entertainment and never received any money from them,” stated Kim’s spokesperson. “Abstrakt Visions Entertainment is in the wrong for falsely promoting Lil Kim in London and will be dealt with accordingly. This matter is in the hands of our legal team.”

 

Lil Kim’s management confirmed there was a business arrangement reached for the concert, but maintain no money was exchanged and the rapper left when promoters failed to deliver a schedule.

Gucci Mane Sentenced To A Year In Prison

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

Atlanta rapper Gucci Mane was sentenced to a year in prison today (November 12) for violating the terms of his probation.

 

The rapper will begin serving his sentence immediately and could be released in as little as six months, according to MTV.com.

 

The news comes as Gucci Mane was promoting his album, ironically titled The State Vs. Radric Davis, on December 8.

 

The album features a Gucci along side a number of high profile artists, including Lil Wayne, Cam’ron, Soulja Boy, OJ Da Juiceman, Waka Flocka, Bun B., E-40, Trina, Nicki Minaj, Keyshia Cole, Plies, Rick Ross and numerous others.

 

Gucci Mane’s legal problems forced him to cancel a series of controversial college appearances at Florida A&M and North Carolina A&T last month.

 

Students on both campuses protested Gucci Mane’s appearance because of his controversial lyrics and alleged gang ties.

 

A murder charge against Gucci Mane was dropped in January 2006, after he shot a man during a botched robbery attempt in an Atlanta-area residence.

 

He also served time for assaulting a local nightclub promoter named Tyrone Tucker with a pool cue.

Chris Brown Faces Fans On BET Today

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

Chris Brown has faced the media, recorded apologetic online videos, but the pop star has yet to speak directly to his fans in the aftermath of his assault conviction.

The 20-year-old singer will appear on BET’s “106 & Park” today at 6 p.m. EST and offer a candid interview in front of a live studio audience.

The show was taped on Tuesday in an interview by Rocsi Diaz, the show’s co-host. In the interview, Brown addressed the changes in his life and how he will carry on.

Brown said, “It’s not something you could take lightly and not something you could push under the rug. It’s a really serious situation and it’s something that I regret and I wish I didn’t do it.”

Brown was convicted on assault charged after brutally beating ex-girlfriend Rihanna in February.

Diaz takes Brown to task on the sincerity of his apologies and public appearances.

“I just feel like at the end of the day I’m human…I can only tell you how I personally feel,” Brown said. “I can’t make everybody love me, but I can just try and I can honestly say that I am sorry.”

Brown has repeatedly expressed remorse for his actions, but recent comments from Rihanna have proved damaging to his entertainment persona.

Rihanna, 21, gave her first full interview last week in an exclusive interview with Diane Sawyer on “20/20.”

“It sounds like he might be reading off a teleprompter,” Rihanna said of an online apology by Brown. “I don’t know if he understood the extent of what he did.”

Of the attack, she explained: “That’s all I kept thinking, the whole time: when is it going to stop, when is it going to stop? He had no soul in his eyes. Just blank. He was clearly blanked out. There was no person when I looked at him.”

KRS, Chuck D. Host Fundraiser For Museum Of Hip-Hop

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

The National Museum of Hip-Hop (NMoH) has planned a star-studded black-tie event to not only raise funds for the completion of the physical museum, but to also raise awareness of the many community initiatives that are tied into the museum’s mission.

 

The event, scheduled for February 9, 2010, will be hosted by legendary emcees Chuck D and KRS-One, and will be held at the M2 Ultra Lounge in New York City, just blocks from the NMoH’s proposed Manhattan location.

 

The exclusive guestlist for the gala will run the gamut of Hip-Hop luminaries who have contributed to the culture the NMoH seeks to preserve.

 

Attendees including Big Daddy Kane, the Cold Crush Brothers, members of the Rock Steady Crew, MC Lyte, Rakim, DJ Red Alert, Ralph McDaniels, The Roots, Redman and will be the first to preview the museum’s building plans and programs.

 

Bill Adler, Dr. Ben Chavis, Andre Harrell, Afrika Bambaataa, Terry Stewart and Jim Fricke will all join the hosts as event co-chairs.

 

The National Museum of Hip-Hop was founded in 2005 with a mission to commemorate the achievements of individual artists and Hip-Hop culture as a whole, while educating visitors about how the culture continues to thrive today.

 

“The timing is perfect for the development of a museum that will preserve the great culture of Hip-Hop, a museum that will serve as not only a beacon for Hip-Hop’s achievements but also as a hub for community enlistment,” said NMoH President Craig Wilson.

 

In addition to housing the history of Hip-Hop culture since its inception in an Manhattan facility that is over 100,000 square feet, the “first ever” true Hip-Hop Museum will offer job training programs benefiting the local homeless, substance-abusers, and unemployed.

 

The Museum will also offer a political education program that will not only offer free classes about the political process, but also support students interested in politics by providing a space for practice debates, campaigns and the development of programs and policy.

 

The project is supported by an Advisory Board which includes Def Jam Records co-founder Russell Simmons; political activist Dr. Ben Chavis; Uptown Records founder Andre Harrell; Leyla Turkkan, C.E.O. and President of PR/Marketing firm The Catalyst Group; Hip-Hop curator, journalist and publicist Bill Adler; Bob Santelli, executive director of the Grammy Museum; and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s President and C.E.O. Terry Stewart.

Raekwon and Mike Bigga: Real Hip-Hop Talk

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

“We need a Hip-Hop House of Representatives,” Raekwon said backstage as

he prepared to hit the stage with the other panelists. “If we are going

to mold and shape this industry and what it is and what hip-hop has

done to us, we have to have brothers such as my brother right here,

Mike, myself. We love Hip-Hop before anything, but knowledge is so

important. These kids is confused and we are care about them…I feel

like it‘s my duty to be that voice on all levels. ”

Last month, AllHipHop.com hosted the 6th Annual Social Lounge panel discussion in Newark, New Jersey at the NJPAC Center.

The evening featured top rappers like Raekwon the Chef, Mike Bigga and Immortal Technique alongside activists Rosa Clemente and Ras Baraka, who debated a number of issues.

Hundreds of students, teachers and community leaders gathered to hear the panelists engage in a lively discussion during the evening, which was hosted by AllHipHop.com’s co-CEO, Chuck “Jigsaw” Creekmur. 

Below are clips from Rae, Mike and the event.

Hip-Hop was just one of the topics, as each panelist was well versed on current events that effect the country, including wars the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, in addition to the issue of health care debate that is currently raging in North America.

“He [Barack Obama] has allowed y’all to believe that they [Democrats] could cure your health care problems,” Mike Bigga stated. “What I am tired of seeing is us cutting a break, because he’s our color.”

While Rosa Clemente agreed with Mike Bigga on some aspects about health care in the U.S., she disagreed with him on the people’s expectations from the first African-American president.

“Health care is not privilege, it’s a human right,” former Presidential VP nominee Rosa Clemente [Green Party] said. “These lies are leading to over 60,000 Americans dying from lack health insurance every year. Even the swine flu vaccination is discriminatory. Less black and Latino kids are getting it because the swine flu H1N1 is not getting to Urban communities. I don’t think he [Barack Obama} made all those promises. I think people think that once he got into office he said ‘reparations, Puerto Rico’s gonna be free.’ To me he was the most honest democratic that ever happened.”

The 6th Annual Social Lounge featured a headlining performance by Blitz The Ambassador, who treated the audience with a variety of musical styles, backed by an 8-piece band.

Shane Mosley: Avoided Champion

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

The champion is supposed to the hunted, not the hunter. But Sugar Shane Mosley finds himself in the latter’s position, as the best fighters in his division ignore him in favor of easier, more lucrative fights. Even with a signature, brilliant performance against Antonio Margarito last January, it has taken Mosley a full year to secure a follow up fight. In two months, he’ll face young upstart titlist Andre Berto (January 30, HBO) in a welterweight unification match.

 

The bout has done little to quell Shane’s anger at the system, and the veteran pugilist and future Hall of Famer lets loose on rivals Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao, Miguel Cotto, and the disservice being done to today’s boxing fans.

 

AllHipHop.com: Since you’re having such a long layoff, have you had any problems remaining motivated and keeping your training on point?

 

Mosley: Even now with the layoff, which is about a year, I’ve been training my son and getting him ready for the amateur division. Hopefully he can make an impact and that’s helped me stay focused as well.

 

AllHipHop.com: A few months back you stated you only wanted big fights going forward, which contributed to the layoff. Who do you classify as big fights opponent-wise in your division?

 

Mosley: You know, the so-called big fighters don’t want to fight me right now, and that’s Mayweather and Pacquiao. So I’m looking to fight anyone else in the welterweight division like Joshua Clottey, and I have [Andre] Berto on January 30th. Cotto if he beats Pacquiao I can fight him. Any of these guys are good. I just want to clean up the welterweight division and let everybody know I’m the best. I want people to recognize me as the best of my era. After facing these guys I can look back 4 years from now and say I fought the best, and let my son take over from there.

 

AllHipHop.com: With Mayweather and Pacquiao, do you think that they’re ignoring you due to the fact they can make more money facing each other despite you being the champion?

 

Mosley: Not true. I’ve been making money for a long time. I fought Oscar De La Hoya way back in 2000 and in 2003. People around the world know Sugar Shane Mosley. Even right now after the big fight with Margarito I’m still avoided. I even kind of criticize Pacquiao for that. I know him and he called me the other day to discuss some things. So I’m not bashing him, he’s my friend. Pacquiao will fight me, but his promoter Bob Arum and the other people in his camp won’t let him fight me. It’s not really money for Pacquiao, because if it was he would have fought me because I’m a bigger draw than Cotto around the world.

 

As far as Mayweather’s concerned, everyone wants to see him fight a real welterweight. He’s in the welterweight division. Why won’t you fight a real welterweight? That’s what Pacquiao is going to have a problem with on Saturday (November 14) because now he’s fighting a true welterweight contender who will show up in that fight.

 

I’m more of a threat to Mayweather than anybody. And that’s what people what to see, him in a real fight. But he doesn’t want to do that. He wants to steal money like he said on ESPN: from the fans and the people, and tell lies. I really don’t trust anything that comes out of his mouth because he exaggerates and he lies! He’s all hype!

 

AllHipHop.com: I was at the Marquez-Mayweather postfight media press, and you guys seemed to be cordial with each other. Mayweather even hugged you. Is your relationship good enough with him that maybe there can be some progress made behind closed doors?

 

Mosley: I have a cool relationship with him and his whole family. It’s nothing personal against any of these fighters. But the ring is my office. Inside that ring, I want to be the best and win. Outside the ring, we’re cool. I’ve talked with him; we’ve played basketball and talked business here and there. I talk to his mother and father. Even in the ring when I told him the best fighters should fight each other, it got crazy because he was a little intimidated and scared of me. It got drawn out like it was a major thing when it really wasn’t.

 

He called me over and I thought ok now we’re going to fight and got excited. Boxing is supposed to be great fighters getting in there in fighting real fights. Even when he was fighting Marquez I was like you can’t be happy with yourself. By beating up this little guy? Marquez is a great boxer, but he’s really a great lightweight. He tried, but whatever. Now you’ve had your tuneup Mayweather, now fight a real fight. He’s ready to go fight Ricky Hatton again.

 

 

 

AllHipHop.com: If you had to stake a bet, do you think his next fight will be against Hatton if he could get away with it?

 

Mosley: I’m speculating, but HBO is trying to push Mayweather-Pacquiao. They’ve been trying to push it forever. But there’s going to be a problem, because Cotto didn’t get that memo. It’s going to be Cotto. Will Mayweather fight Cotto? I think so; he has a good chance of beating Cotto. He boxes and moves and Cotto will have problems because Mayweather’s faster and with his technical skills probably beats Cotto.

 

I get frustrated because I know I’m the best fighter out there. I want to prove it with my hands.

 

AllHipHop.com: You’re in a catch-22 with fans and media. Before people said you were too nice and needed to be more vocal, and now when you do that people are saying you look desperate and disrespectful. Do you feel that hypocrisy?

 

Mosley: Yeah, the media will say what they say, but it’s just me being me. I won’t change up for anyone. I’m frustrated about this situation. I don’t like how they’re maneuvering the fans and pulling the wool over their eyes. If you continue to do this, I’m going to put the truth out there. I’m not going to allow lies to be put out there.

 

AllHipHop.com: How has Mayweather been when you’ve brought up the fight to him away from cameras?

 

Mosley: Well we all know him. Mayweather has always been the one talking down on me and then when I’m around we’re cool. I’m cool with everyone. I’m cool with Winky Wright, I was cool with Vernon [Forrest], I’m cool with everyone I’ve fought. I don’t hold grudges. There’s one thing I want to clear up. Mayweather talks about he wanted to fight me back in 1999, 2000. But he didn’t want to fight me when he was at 130 pounds. I was at 135 and was forced to move up because I couldn’t make the weight anymore. I was starving myself to make the weight. That’s why I moved right up to welterweight to fight Oscar. He didn’t want to fight me back then.

 

The next time he claimed he wanted to fight me was when I had just fought Vargas twice and someone else. And after the fight I had a headbutt that had loosened my tooth. I said give me a month and I’ll fight you. He didn’t want to do that and chose to fight Oscar De La Hoya. I said ok, that’s cool. If you beat Oscar I’ll be your next opponent, right? Riiight. That didn’t happen. He ran off and fought Hatton. He didn’t want to fight me.

 

He knows what the fans and public doesn’t know. I’m the only person that can hit him. We have pretty much that same style except I hit harder. I can hit him, the other guys can’t. When I touch him, just like I did to Margarito, he’s going to sleep. Why fight Sugar Shane when I can fight Pacquiao who can’t hit me? Why fight Sugar Shane when I can fight Marquez, Hatton, or Oscar De La Hoya? It’s unfortunate. It’s his last resort. After I retire and am done with boxing then he’ll fight me. If he fights me, that’ll be his first loss.

 

AllHipHop.com: Strategy-wise, how do you beat him?

 

Mosley: We both match up in speed. Like I said I have more power than him. I’m more aggressive but I can box, too. I can make him try to come at me as well. I have so many different ways of fighting the guy that makes it so appealing. I’m a complete fighter and he’s knows it.

To be honest, all the guys I’ve lost to have been bigger than me. The only one who was the same size as me was Cotto, and really I don’t think I lost to him. And that’s why he doesn’t want to fight me again. Margarito got the inspiration to walk him down like I did.

 

 

 

AllHipHop.com: The Andre Berto fight is official, right?

 

Mosley: The Andre Berto fight is a done deal. He signed the contract, so he’s got his wish. People know I’ll fight anyone. I didn’t have to fight Vernon Forrest or Winky Wright. But I wanted to challenge myself.  I didn’t want small guys moving up. If I believe I’m pound for pound, I have to fight anyone. That’s the difference between a real fighter and someone just talking.

 

AllHipHop.com: Did Berto’s Twitter rant calling you out surprise you?

 

Mosley: A little bit. But he’s younger so he’s letting his emotions get in the way. I’ve talked to Berto and shook his hand, and I’ll continue to do the same thing. It’s just words. Say what’s on your mind. We’ll just settle it in the ring.

 

AllHipHop.com: You see a knockout in that one?

 

Mosley: This is how I got into it with Fernando Vargas. Larry Merchant asked if I was going to know him out and I said I believe I’ll knock everyone out. That’s how I got in that $100,000 bet with Vargas, which he paid me for, by the way. [Vargas is] a real man. Yes, I believe I’ll knock Berto out. I fight to knock everyone out. That’s probably why when I fought Cotto he got the decision because I fought to knock him out, not outpoint him like I could have done. He was thrown off when I started boxing. Maybe I lost because of that.

 

 

 

AllHipHop.com: You challenged Pacquiao to a fight at 140. How could you possibly get that low and still be healthy?

 

Mosley: I was training my mind and body to get down to that weight just to prove I was the best fighter. I won’t beat you at my weight; I’ll beat you at your weight, even though it’s not really his weight. I was just going to do that for him, because I wanted that fight to happen. I wanted it since I really think Cotto is going to beat him. I was going to do anything to get it.

 

AllHipHop.com: Who was your toughest opponent?

 

Mosley: My toughest opponent was Winky Wright, followed by Vernon Forrest. Then maybe Oscar the first time when he was at his best. Wilfredo Rivera was very tough when I first stepped to welterweight. Some of my fights at lightweight like Phillip Holiday when I was sick. Cotto would probably rank about 5 maybe 6. Cotto was tough though, a real good fighter.

 

AllHipHop.com: You showed a lot of heart in the first fight with Vernon Forrest. For those who have never been on combat, talk about what goes through a fighter’s  mind when you’re hurt and trying to survive and still win the fight.

 

Mosley: My mindset was I’m going to knock him out. You knock me down, I’m going to get up and knock you out. A lot of people get scared and don’t want to get knocked out. That’s probably why I’m a champion. The fight game is a mental game. The first knockdown [in the 2nd round], I was a little buzzed. I saw the right hand go over my shoulder and he threw the right uppercut which almost had me out. I saw another right coming so I threw myself forward because I knew he was going to hit me with it. The second knockdown he kind of threw me down, he never hit me. My legs were still wobbly and I thought to myself I’m going to fight him. But then I thought to myself I’ve already went down twice, so I should move around a bit so they don’t stop the fight. After the third I went at him because I had my legs back. I got hit more than I should have because I was trying to catch him with a shot.

 

 

 

The fight before that I had a hernia that popped out. After I knocked him out I had to go the hospital and get the hernia sewed up. Against Vernon in the 10th, he caught me with a shot on that hernia cut they made and I scream out “arrrrggggh!” People think that’s because of the body shot, but it was really the hernia. Most people would’ve said ok, I’m not going to win just go down. But I stayed up and fought him. It’s the warrior mentality, I’ll never quit. Fans will always get 100% from Sugar Shane Mosley win, lose, or draw.

 

 

 

AllHipHop.com: The Margarito fight was one of your best performances. It looked easy the way you dominated him, but was their anything difficult about his style we may have missed from ringside?

 

Mosley: To be honest his style wasn’t difficult because I grew up in a predominantly Mexican area. So, I’ve seen it every single day growing up. A lot of it comes from Genaro Hernandez. He got some of his moves from Genaro. I know his trainer Capetillo trained at the same gym in East LA. I could see how he gives other people problems with that style, but it could never work with me. He’s too slow and not stronger than me. He’s not faster and doesn’t hit harder. He had nothing better than me.

 

 

 

AllHipHop.com: I’ve started a mythical matchup component to the weekly boxing column, so I decided to match you up with Roberto Duran at welterweight. How would you go about fighting him?

 

Mosley: I think that I’d fight exactly how Sugar Ray Leonard did. I’d be on my toes and use my boxing skills. I know he’d come right at me. What would offset Roberto Duran would be my strength and my power. He wouldn’t be able to wrestle me because I’m pretty good on the inside.

 

It’s funny you say him because I study his clips and we’re alike in a lot of ways. He can box as well as fight. The other day I watched his fight with Edwin Viruet. I picked up some different things in that fight. But the best fight probably wouldn’t have been at welterweight. The best fight would’ve been at lightweight because we would’ve really rumbled [laughs].

 

 

 

AllHipHop.com: I picked Duran because sometimes when I watch you go to the body and evade shots on the inside it reminds me of him.

 

Mosley: Yeah, I watch a lot of his tapes. I’m a fan. I’m a fan of all of those fighters from the 80s: Roberto Duran, Sugar Ray Leonard, Marvin Hagler, and Tommy Hearns. That Fab Four, I pick out different things from each fighter.

 

AllHipHop: I have to ask you at least one Hip-Hop related question. Who is Shane Mosley bumping these days?

 

Mosley: I listen to a lot of Lil Wayne. I like Bone Thugs and T.I. There are others, but I’m a big fan of Lil Wayne right now.

 

AllHipHop.com: Closing thoughts?

 

Mosley: I’ll probably be there for Pacquiao-Cotto. And remeber Shane Mosley-Andre Berto on January 30th at the Mandalay Bay.

 

AllHipHop.com: Thank you for your time, champ.

 

Mosley: My pleasure.

Harvard Lawyer Reps C-Murder For Free In Retrial Attempt

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

Rapper Corey “C-Murder” Miller cannot afford to hire lawyers to fund his appeal, but two lawyers have come to his aid in an attempt to secure a retrial.

 

Attorney Robert Smith, of the Charles Hamilton Houston Institute of Race and Justice at Harvard Law School and John Adcock of New Orleans are representing Miller free of charge.

 

The rapper, 38, was convicted of second-degree murder in the death of Steve Thomas, 16, inside of a now-defunct Jefferson Parish nightclub in January of 2002 and sentenced to a mandatory life sentence.

 

According to the Times-Picayune, Miller cannot afford to pay the $20,702 for case records and trial transcripts and fees, which alone total $17,335.

 

Since Miller has no known income, real estate or savings, his lawyers have filed a motion to declare him indigent, which would allow him access to the court records at no cost. A hearing is set for December 10. Miller is also facing a civil lawsuit in relation to Thomas’ death.

 

C-Murder is the brother of rap mogul Master P., one of the wealthiest entrepreneurs the Hip-Hop genre has produced. In interview last month, Master P. addressed C-Murder’s incarceration.

 

“He know he didn’t commit this crime but for him keeping it real in the streets and not saying who did it, where he at? He in the penitentiary,” Master P. told AllHipHop.com. “So sometimes your pride could kill you. My whole thing is: don’t let pride get in the way of what you want to do. Hip-hop artists got this ‘keep it real’ thing like they on the streets now.”

 

Master P. also blamed C-Murder’s rap name for some of the legal problems he encountered, despite his younger brother’s attempt to rename himself “C-Miller” to downplay the controversial moniker.

 

“Right now, C-Murder is a victim of a crime himself. He’s innocent on this case but because of his name, image and past, that’s given them the right to take him away off the streets,” Master P. said.

Nosebleed Coud Lead To Lawsuit For Lil Kim

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

A promotional company is planning to sue rapper Lil Kim for allegedly missing six performance dates and keeping her $20,000 fee.

 

Abstrakt Visions Entertainment paid Lil Kim the $20k to perform a series of dates between November 7_14 in London.

 

According to TMZ, Lil Kim suffered a nosebleed in her hotel room before the first date, prompting her to cancel all six dates and head back to the United States.

 

Lil Kim’s representatives admitted that the rapper suffered a nosebleed, but the reason she left the UK is because of the promoters inability to plan, because she never received a schedule.

 

Abstrakt Visions Entertainment is planning to sue Lil Kim to recover the $20k, which Lil Kim used to cover her travel expenses.

Mike Tyson Arrested for Paparazzi Fight

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

Former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson was arrested yesterday (November 11) at Los Angeles’ LAX airport for allegedly assaulting a paparazzi photographer.

 

The dispute happened in Terminal 7, when the photographer approached Tyson, his wife, and 10-month old daughter to take pictures.

 

According to statements given to police by Tyson, he struck the man to defend his family after the photographer became aggressive and hit him first.

 

The photographer’s version is that when he approached the retired boxer, he was punched in the face and struggled to prevent his camera from being taken away.

 

Tyson was cooperative with authorities, and booked without incident on suspicion of battery.

 

The former fighter also opted to press charges, and police were expected to officially arrest the unidentified photographer after the hospital releases him.

 

Last September, Kanye West and road manager Don Crowley were arrested for battery and vandalism when they accosted a paparazzi photographer on film and destroyed his camera.

 

These charges were finally dismissed last month. At press time, Mike Tyson could not be reached for comment.

Katt Williams Calls Arrest by “Overzealous” Investigators a Misunderstanding

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

Katt Williams has spoken out about his recent arrest, telling an Atlanta, Georgia television station that the charges against him were the result of a misunderstanding.

 

The actor/comedian, who was arrested over the weekend on charges of burglary and criminal trespass spoke with local ABC-affiliate WSB-TV shortly after posting a $41,000 bond and being released on Tuesday evening (November 10).

 

Prior to the interview, Williams addressed a throng of fans and reporters who awaited his released from the Newnan County Jail, about 40 miles South of Atlanta.

 

“Sometimes in America, it’s hard to know how things are just by the way they look like,” he simply stated, before personally greeting several of his fans. The interview took place at the estate of producer Barry Hankerson, where the alleged break-in occurred.

 

WSB-TV reports that the Hankerson estate has sered as Williams’ home for about a month, as he works on the Charles S. Dutton-directed drama The Obama Effect, due out later this year.

 

The charges issued against the comedian on Sunday (November 8) arose when the home’s on-site caretaker accused Williams of breaking into the guesthouse in which he lives and stealing $3,555 worth of collectible coins and jewelry.

 

“If you were gonna make up a story about Katt Williams stealing your jewelry box, wouldn’t it be smart to look at his jewelry first,” he told local ABC-affiliate WSB-TV, displaying a diamond-encrusted cuff-style bracelet.

 

He did, however, admit to breaking a pane of glass in the door of the caretaker’s home, which was empty at the time.

 

Williams explained that he had done so to turn on the lights in the separate home, so that the horses being kept at the Newnan, Georgia home would not be frightened by their reflections.

 

He went on to accuse the investigators who responded to the caretaker’s 911 of being overzealous in failing to analyze all the facts before arresting him. If Williams is indicted by a grand jury, he will next appear in court on January 14, 2010.

THE DAILY TWO SENSE

 

Well, illseed does it again! Did you read about the letter that I posted from a reader of mine that tried to pass 50 Cent his demo CD at a Macy’s event? Yeah, well they went through all the pain of buying the perfume to get to 50 and then when they presented him with their music, they got KICKED OUT! I felt their pain and also listened to the music and I thought it was good. Well as fate would have it, 50 Cent and Eminem’s people read the rumors section and guess what? They hit up the owner of AllHipHop and requested to hear the music that 50 Cent never got to hear. I’m talking about a Shady Records A&R! How crazy is that? So, there is no fail in that what so ever! I have to say you never know how this industry works!

 

Another person emailed me and said he managed to get his music to 50 Cent, but his approach might have been a bit different. He doesn’t know if Fif ever listened to it. Shout out to the Piranha Gang.

 

SOULJA BOY AND TRINA

 

Wait a sec…I was listening to Soulja Boy on AllHipHop Radio and Eric B and Guttaman talked to him about a variety of things, but what I heard that piqued my rumor ears was the talk about him and Trina. Now, I don’t have the audio, but he sure didn’t deny him and Trina. In my professional opinion, he basically confirmed without confirming! He said that they had some fun out in Jamaica. You just had to hear it! He even said he mom saw him and Trina living it up and questioned him about it. DAYUM! Soulja Boy is winning right now!

 

SB also took time to slay Bow Wow about his video game skills. Soulja Boy said that his “dog” Bow Wow can’t ever see him on Madden and that he’s garbage. “I’ll just be taking his money,” he said. He also said he beat Bow Weezy so bad, he didn’t even take his money.

 

OLD 50 CENT / SUGE KNIGHT RUMOR

 

I was chatting it up ith Mikey the Movie Star and he gave me a rumor that I never heard before. Check this out. Its about when 50 Cent first came out on the set of “In da Club.” At the video shoot, Suge Knight reportedly came to the set with 20 Mexican gang members to confront 50 an the G-Unit. I heard Bang ‘Em Smuff was dispatched to handle business on that level. I heard Eminem left and came back with a bulletproof vest on. I’m not sure where that video was shot. But, nobody ever got shot so the real business did take place. That’s just something from Mikey. I cannot verify its validity.

 

 

 

 

KATT WILLIAMS QUOTE FOR THE AGES

 

“I did not steal when I was homeless, If I did not steal when I was starving, then I certainly will not steal $3,500 worth of jewelry, when I’m wearing $250,000 worth of jewelry.”

 

-Katt Williams!

 

 

Katt definitely sounds a bit different in this interview.

 

Shout out to Rasha!

 

 

PROPS!

KAY SLAY SONS LIL SCRAPPY?

 

I didn’t hear this for myself, but I heard DJ Kay Slay and BG were talking about something on Sirius and Lil Scrappy was there as well. Well, I heard the convo got into the topic of what they would do to some girl that was live in the studio. Well I heard that Scrappy wasn’t into all that. And Scrappy wasn’t  talking at a;;. I heard Kay Slay like barked on him live on the air about not getting any cooch or something. Well, nobody every heard from Scrappy again after that. I think Scrappy was making sure Diamond didn’t hear no mess on the air to ruin his good thang at home!

 

GOOD LUCK, MIKE!

 

Mike Tyson got arrested after a scuffle with some paps! They pushed Mike and Mike handled his!

 

 

LADY GAGA GETS SOME TIME IN WITH HER MAN!

 

Gaga isn’t looking like a man right now, right?

 

Hope she ain’t get no rocks in her butt!

THE ILL COMMUNITY!

 

I case you didn’t know, the Ill Community is down for not. Guess what? There were things that needed fixing and they are about to get fixed. So, hold off on the IC for a minute, but I have been assured this will all comeback stronger than ever before you can sink your teeth into a Thanksgiving Turkey. So, the team is hard at work and will let you know when we are back FULL STEAM AHEAD!

 

REUNION FOR PETE ROCK AND CL SMOOTH?

 

 

I happened to catch a Twitter from Marco Polo, the producer.

 

“Damn Pete and CL doing shows together!!!??? WTF!!! Wasn’t expecting that, dope. We need a NYC one.”

 

I hope this is true. This would be good news for 90’s Hip-hop heads. Pete and CL feuded pretty bad so to see them come back together is a big move.

SO WHAT DID RIHANNA DO?

 

I definitely know there is more to that Chris Brown / Rihanna drama, but quietly Chris Brown’s people are leaking details and rumors even thought he isn’t saying anything. What I most recently got was that Rihanna was “pounding Chris’ head” while he was in the car and THAT made him lose all of his mental faculties and go “Rambo” on her. After that, I was told he just started teeing off on her in a way that got him in this present predicament. Its interesting though. I know in some instances they will also charge the women if they feel she started the physical violence. I’m not with beating on a women, but there just seems to be more to this than we see, Maybe Chris should reconsider and say what really happened from his point of view.

 

WHERE’S WALE?

 

I have heard a lot of good things about this new Wale record. But, what I am hearing is Wale’s distribution may not be wide enough for fans to get the record. This is a similar situation that I was told happened to Slaughterhouse. Now, I am not screaming conspiracy, but it would seem that somebody so widespread as Wale would get proper distribution. Now, I won’t be too specific, but I will say that I am being told that the record is not in KEY retail spots and that there is a heavy reliance on online sales. Again, this isn’t fact, but what I heard. What is good is that the album is quality…however you need to get it….get it!

ILLSEED’S QUICKIES

 

I heard Cheri Dennis got dropped or released from Bad Boy Records. I don’t see that that is a bad thing.

 

I didn’t know that the BET Hip-Hop Awards appearance is what did Boosie in! He should have just stayed the hell home!! The year before the BET rap awards did Ras Kass in too.

 

Anybody hear about Day 26 beefing with Diddy’s new group Dirty Money?

 

Mike Tyson got arrested yesterday. One day Mike is going to snap and there’s going to be a lot of people dead and maimed! Let the man live!

 

Oh yea…that rumor about the lady from The Matrix winning ANYTHING is totally WRONG! She didn’t get a penny and I heard she is the one that started the rumor. SMH! Here is a link Sujey gave me.

 

What happened to Relapse 2?

 

I hope Shaq has an understanding wife now that the texts of him cheating are hitting the internet like a Tyson bolo punch. (Miss Mouth says she’s already left him and moved to LA.)

 

Rumor has it Jay-Z has cancelled some concerts to be with Beyonce has she tours. There are no details other than they are dealing with something pressing in their marriage.

 

Letoya Luckett is reportedly mad at Capitol Records for not properly pushing her project. They have stopped all promo!

 

SIGNS THE WORLD IS COMING TO AN END!

 

A woman made a “song” called “Sittin’ On Da Toilet”

 

 

 

And somebody else made fun of it.

 

 

EPIC FAIL OF THE DAY

 

Im not sure where this lady learned to drive and park, but this translates into “EPIC FAIL” all across the globe.

 

 

THIS AIN’T NICKI MINAJ

 

LOL! Back in the day, there was a rumor that Remy Ma was gay and they are saying that this stick up kid girl is Nicki Minaj. Noooooooooooooooooooo!

 

 

Nicki is from Queens and this chick is reppin the BX. Nuff said…plus they look nothing alike!

 

CHARLA NASH IS A TROOPER!

 

I know there is a lot to be said, but all I gotta say is this woman is a trooper for having this outlook on life!

 

 

JAY, CALL BEANIE PLEASE!!!!!!!

 

This is about to get serious! Beans is G-Unit now and he and 50 Cent are about to cause chaos!

 

SO THIS IS ACTUALLY GOING TO COME OUT?
