Hip-Hop Rumors: A BIG Riff Between Jay Z & Kanye?

Kanye West and Jay are a helluva team. They are always interesting to listen to and to watch. All that great stuff. And YET…there are these persistent rumors of friction. It didn’t help that Jay and B didn’t show up to the big wedding. Seems like Kanye has been performing and when he performs, he has been removing all references to Jay Z from his rhymes. For example, on “Blood on the Leaves,” ‘Ye says “I don’t give a damn if you used to talk to Jay Z. He ain’t with you, he with Beyonce, you need to stop actin’ lazy.” On a recent rap, he said, “I don’t give a damn if you used to talk to … . He ain’t with you, he with Beyonce, you need to stop actin crazy.” He just didn’t say his name. And he apparently did that a few times. This has formulated rumors of friction. Well, that is Kanye’s “big brother” so you never know.

And then there is more to this rumor…from the tabloids, where they got dudes sounding like birds in these streets.

While many are speculating that Mr West is still fuming about the wedding snub, we hear the feud escalated over another matter. Apparently it was Jay who got annoyed because Kanye recently tried to offer marital advice, after wrongly assuming he and Bey were on the rocks following [elevator]-gate.

US sources told us: “Jay thought it was laughable that Kanye was trying to give him tips when he’s only been hitched two minutes.

“His jaw dropped to the ground when he got the call.”

“Kanye said he thinks Jay needs to stay focused on his marriage, ignore the negativity surrounding them right now and told him to ‘take care of business’.

“Despite the fact Jay agreed with the sentiment, he thought it was ridiculous that Kanye was trying to act like he knew it all.”

Do you really think there is friction between these dudes?

Kanye West Helped Chris Rock Name Upcoming Comedy Tour "The Black Plague" (VIDEO)

(AllHipHop News) In the 14 century, the Plague epidemic that ravaged Europe killed over 100 million people in the world. Chris Rock is hoping to just have people dying laughing at his newly announced “The Black Plague” tour coming this fall.

While on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon, Rock states that he will be embarking on his first stand-up comedy tour since 2008’s Kill The Messenger tour. According to Rock, the ominous title of the tour originated from the most controversial rap artist of the last 10 years:

Kanye [West] gave me that name. Yeah, the other day, we were hanging out. He gave me that name. We were listening to records or whatever and he said ‘black plague’. I said ‘oooh, can I use that?’

According to Rock, the tour should start late October or early November. Rock is hosting the 2014 BET Awards on June 29th, three days after Dave Chappelle performs the last of his upcoming nine shows at Radio City Music Hall, starting June 18th. During a July 2013 interview on Aisha Tyler’s Girl on Guy, Rock hinted at a joint tour with Chappelle:

The tour will happen. Maybe with Chappelle, maybe not. Who knows? We’ve been talking.

Hip-Hop Rumors: T.I. Helping Andre 3000 Get New Music Out?

UPDATE: YO! PEOPLE SWEAR I MAKE UP RUMORS…FALSE! I get most of my rumors from sources. If they are not mine and I know it, I source them to the outlet of origin. This rumor here, was NOT from a third party, but the communication between the source and myself got screwed up. So here is the correction. The source told me “Tip” and Andre 3000 were working together in the studio. Man, the source just said “Tip” so I assumed he meant T.I., but he didn’t. He meant, the legendary Q-Tip of A Tribe Called Quest! So, apparently, these two were seen in the studio working on new music, not T.I. T.I. wasn’t far-fetched since the pair worked together on the Trouble Man album. Anyway, I hope that helps.

So, it seems the rumors are 100% true. Andre 3000 is definitely working on new music. But, here is the cool part. I am also hearing that Three Stacks has been working uber close to T.I. Not necessarily with T.I. but in Tip’s studio. I’m hearing that dude is actually in the recording process already for this new solo album. That’s is great news. I guess, I have to admit to being curious why he couldn’t do us fans a solid and do an OutKast album first. But, that’s another story. I suppose we need to just be happy that we get some new music from Andre that’s not a remix or a feature.

Lebron James Earned $30 Million From Dr. Dre's Beats by Dre Sale

(AllHipHop News) Lebron James has public aspirations to become the first billionaire active athlete and Dr. Dre has helped him on that quest. According to a recent report, Lebron James acquired $30 million in stock and cash after the Beats by Dre sale by Apple.

While James’ share in the Beats by Dre company is undisclosed, he has reportedly raked in 1% of the $3 billion sale of the headphone and music streaming company. Iovine and Dre gave James prototypes of the Beats headphones back in 2008, prior to the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. Lebron James was given a share in Beats by Dre in exchange for promoting the headset. The deal is being dubbed “the biggest equity cash payout for a professional athlete in history”.

Last year, James and Dr. Dre appeared on the cover of the February 2013 issue of ESPN The Magazine. During the interview, James explains why Dr. Dre’s “Still D.R.E.” is one of his favorite songs from the legendary producer/rapper:

It’s not just the music but what he’s actually saying. People are always trying to throw rocks or say you’re not the best. I love that song, man. I listen to it at least weekly.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Peep Who Might Play Eazy-E In The N.W.A. Movie!

The N.W.A. movie is a highly sought out flick in the future of film and with casting underway, things are starting to get hectic. Recently, Ice Cube declared that his son would be playing him in the movie about the OG’s of rap. But, after that, there have not been very many proclamations. Until now. The word on the street is that a well-known funny man is going to play Eazy-E. KATT WILLIAMS?

That’s the word on the block. Can you see Katt Williams as Eazy-E? I’m not sure I can rock with that. I like Katt and all that, but he’s pure funny man. Eazy had a definite funny side to him, but he was also the “Hip-Hop Thugster” so there were a couple sides to him. Of course, Katt has a little G in him too if you remember. Remember when he slapped the dude at Target and rolled away? Here it is.

What do you think of Katt playing Eazy-E?
