JEEZ! It takes something like Dr. Dre to make a bum like me re-evaluate my whole life! Since the Apple Beats deal went through, the good Doc has copped a $40 mansion. On top of that, he’s treating those around him super well – even the waitresses! Radar Online reports that Dre gave a Hollywood waitress a $5000 tip after ordering tequila shots. That stuff must have tasted uber good! Apparently, the waitress couldn’t believe her fortune, but gladly accepted!

(AllHipHop News) Last November, the mother of The-Dream’s child Lydia Nam accused The-Dream of choking, kicking, and punching her while she was pregnant. A month after The-Dream turned himself in to the NYPD on domestic abuse, he denies any culpability for Nam’s injuries.

Last month, photos of a bruised Nam with numerous lacerations surfaced on the internet. While The Dream does not explicitly allege that Nam’s accusations are based in desire for monetary compensation but does allude to it in his explanation of the origin of her bruises.

When you get this much money, just know somebody going to always want it.

Kimmy Cakes may have gotten a little beside herself and her nanny is spilling the beans…

Life and Style is reporting that the p### reality star is full of herself and her baby, and even speaks ill of baby Blue Ivy.

“All moms think their kid’s the cutest – but most don’t go as far a s saying unkind things about other children! Yet when Kim Kardashian, 33, praises North, 1, it sometimes comes at the expense of Beyonce’s mini-me.

“She brags that Nori is cuter than Blue Ivy,” dishes an insider. ‘She loves it.'”

It’s ok to praise your child, but to do it at another kid’s expense by throwing them under the bus is a different story.

And then you wonder why Jay and Bey declined that wedding invite…

(AllHipHop News) On January 18th, 2005, The Game released his debut album The Documentary and in less than two months it was certified double platinum. Yesterday (June 17th), Game revealed he will be releasing The Documentary 2 around the 10th anniversary of his debut album, next year.

The original Documentary album consisted of production from Just Blaze, Dr. Dre, Scott Storch and other hitmakers. According to Game during his interview with The LA Leakers, for The Documentary 2 he’s “going back to the Just Blaze, Scott Storch, and Dr.Dre to get it handled.” 

Game stated in the interview that him referencing G-Unit and 50 Cent in his new song “Bigger Than Me” was not a sign of respect but moreso “appropriate”. When asked if he will appear on G-Unit’s upcoming album being released in November, Game stated he “will not be on Jamiroquai new album.” Game also explained why he would not appear on ESPN’s First Take:

They calling, they want me on [ESPN] First Take. They want me all over ESPN, but it’s two conflicts. Number one, I’m biased towards the Lakers. I will not talk about any other team except the Lakers. Number two, my name is the Game, so I’m going to fumble over a lot of words. I can’t talk about the game and I’m the Game.
