Drake “5 AM In Toronto”

Drake dropped “5 AM In Toronto,” early this morning.

This came out right after  the MTV’s much-debated “Hottest MCs in the Game” list, where Drizzy placed at #5.

Look at what he had to say about the “The List”:

“I swear, f### them n##### this year/ I made Forbes list, n#### / F### your list, everything’s lookin’ gorgeous.”

Here’s his shot at his former compadre, the Weeknd:

“I show love, never get the same out of n#####/ Guess it’s funny how money can make change out of n#####/ For real, some nobody started feeling himself/ A couple somebodies started killing themself/ A couple albums dropped those are still on the shelf/ I bet them s#### would have popped if I was willing to help.”

Addresses his beef with Chris Brown:

“Bad press during the summer over allegations/ I ain’t lyin’, my n####, my time is money/ That’s why I ain’t got time for a n#### who’s time is comin.”

Rihanna:

“Where you think she at when she ain’t with you?/ Wildin’, doin’ s### that’s way out of your budget/ Owl sweaters inside her luggage, you gotta love it/ Damn, this s### could go on a tape.”

Also, was ths a shot at Common:

“I’m headed to the bank n####/ Sinatra lifestyle, I’m just being Frank, n####.”

Well Drake has a lot on his mind so, I hope this eased the tension in his life, let’s see if there will be any response to this track.

Lil Kim Goes Off On Peter Rosenberg For Asking About Nicki Minaj During Tiffany Foxx Interview

(AllHipHop News) Apparently femcee Lil Kim is sick and tired of talking about rap rival Nicki Minaj. Kim called into the Hot 97’s The Cipha Sounds and Peter Rosenberg Show this week to introduce her new artist Tiffany Foxx, but the second question Rosenberg asked Kim was about Minaj.

“Let me tell you something. I’m about to shut you down right now,” Kim directs at Rosenberg. “This is about Tiffany Foxx. And this about I.R.S., Queen Bee.”

Rosenberg tried to defend his question saying that he most likely would have faced criticism for not bringing up the subject, but Kim gave the radio host some advice on how to handle his possible critics.

“You don’t have to succumb to the b#######,” says Kim. “I’m not going to sit here and keep talking about it.”

Rosenberg then offered to mediate the long-standing feud between the two female rap stars.

“I’m going to bring everyone together,” says Rosenberg.

“What? No you’re not. You don’t even believe that yourself,” responds Kim. “You don’t even like her. So stop it.”

Rosenberg had an infamous spat with Minaj in 2012. After Rosenberg made comments about her song “Starships” at Hot 97’s Summer Jam, Minaj and the rest of Young Money pulled themselves from the show.

In the interview, Kim then goes on to scold Rosenberg for trying to create tension between female rappers instead of focusing on their talents.

“This is the reason why females can’t do this. You have a nice shot at helping to introduce somebody who is a new artist and very special,” says Kim. “And you wanna bring in some mess. Don’t do that.”

Tiffany Foxx has been working with Lil Kim for several months. The St. Louis native recently released the video for her song “Twisted” featuring a verse from Lil Kim and an appearance by pop singer Miley Cyrus. “Twisted” is off Foxx’s debut mixtape Yellow Tape.

Kid Cudi Reveals Details Of ‘Indicud’ Album Coming in April

(AllHipHop News) G.O.O.D. Music’s resident alternative emcee Kid Cudi is set to drop his 3rd studio album Indicud on April 23rd.

The media shy rapper/producer/director recently spoke with Billboard about what his fans can expect to hear on his latest project.

Cudi admits that he hasn’t finalized the tracklist for Indicud yet, but he did say that listeners can look forward to appearances from Too Short, RZA, and Kendrick Lamar.

He is also working with A$AP Rocky and the indie rock group Haim.

On Cudi’s debut album, Man On The Moon, he enlisted Chicago rap legend Common to chronicle the LP. This time around Cudi is using audio samples from films to provide the commentary between the songs.

“Throughout the album I wanted to include clips from some of my favorite movies to kind of narrate the album a bit and liven it up and give it some personality,” says Cudi.

Cudi also takes on a bigger role on the production side for his latest LP.

He produced the first three singles – “Just What I Am,” “King Wizard” and “Immortal” – and even revealed that he created some of the tracks in under half an hour.

“‘Just What I Am’ took me all of 10 minutes to make. ‘Immortal’ maybe took 30 minutes. It’s not hard for me,” says Cudi.

What you should not expect from the Cleveland native is a traditional album roll out.

Cudi says his business model is to focus on the art and let the music speak for itself. He’s not paying much attention to getting played on the radio or doing a ton of interviews.

“I feel like the traditional way of doing things in the business is for dinosaurs. I’m not for that,” says Cudi. “I think m############ get so caught up in that s### they forget about the artistry. And that’s why people’s music sucks.”

According to Cudi, the music on Indicud will be the truest reflection of who he is an artist.

Indicud is almost what my first album should have sounded like, had I really been able to channel all of the ideas I had into music,” says Cudi. “That’s the beauty of this album. The ideas are coming straight from me and me only.”

Indicud is scheduled for release on April 28th through G.O.O.D. Music/Universal.

Watch the videos for “Just What I Am” and “King Wizard” below.

Beanie Sigel Sentenced To 6-23 Months For Drug Charge

(AllHipHop News) Former Roc-A-Fella rapper Beanie Sigel was sentenced to 6 to 23 months in county prison on Wednesday after pleading guilty to drug charges from an August 2012 arrest in Tinicum Township, Pennsylvania according to reports by the Delaware County Daily Times.

Sigel (born Dwight Grant) and a companion were stopped by state troopers on I-95 for traffic violations around 3:00 a.m. on August 29th. Police found prescription pills and marijuana on the driver of the vehicle, Gerald Andrews.

Sigel was asleep in the passenger’s seat at the time the car was pulled over, but was searched by the officers as well. Police then found codeine, pills, and $4,500 in the Philadelphia emcee’s possession.

A .38 caliber Smith and Wesson was also discovered in the car. Sigel and Andrews are prohibited to carry a firearm because both men are convicted felons.

Sigel had been detained in jail since being arrested on drug possession, possession with the intent to deliver, persons not to possess firearms, firearms not to be carried without a license and conspiracy charges.

Yesterday, he pleaded guilty to the illegal prescription drug possession which is an ungraded misdemeanor.

“Mr. Grant has been a successful entertainer and musician in the Philadelphia community for decades,” said Sigel’s defense attorney Carson Morris. “Obviously, he’s had an incredible amount of success and opportunity in his life. He’s also made some mistakes, which have ended up putting him in custody. He’s ready to go ahead and put that behind him and move on with is life.”

Beanie Sigel has had several run ins with the law. He served a one year federal sentence for a gun charge he received in 2002. He was arrested twice in 2003 for assault and attempted murder. He was not convicted of either crime.

In 2010, Sigel pleaded guilty to tax evasion after the IRS accused the rapper of avoiding to pay $728,536 in federal taxes from the years 1999 to 2005. He was sentenced to 24 months in prison.

Sigel’s attorney also mentioned to the judge that the rapper is experiencing serious financial issues stemming from owing back taxes.

Sigel released his last album, This Time, just hours before his August 29 arrest.

Non Hip-Hop Rumors: Will Skinheads Kill OJ Simpson In Jail?

OJ cannot…be killed.

Or can he?

The man is most known for allegedly killing his wife and her alleged lover. But, peep this. The National Enquirer is reporting that the skinheads in the bing are trying to merk the man once known as the JUICE, who is now 65-years-old. Peep the report.

IN a bombshell world exclusive, The ENQUIRER can reveal that O.J. SIMPSON was viciously attacked in prison by two crazed, knife-wielding skinheads who were looking to earn bragging rights for taking down The Juice!

“They want me dead,” a shaken O.J. told a pal. “And they almost got me!”

The attack came on Feb. 16 during visiting day at Nevada’s Lovelock Correctional Center, where O.J. has been locked up since 2008.

The disgraced football great was relaxing in the prison yard, chatting with pals including a band of doting homosexuals who call themselves “The Girls.” As The ENQUIRER previous¬ly reported, they provide him with protection – and back massages.

SUDDENLY, the calm atmosphere was broken by yelling and screaming as about 50 “white power” inmates staged a riot to divert the guards’ attention while a pair of hit men charged O.J. with their make¬shift, but deadly, weapons.

“The guards sounded the sirens from the prison towers and rushed in with tear gas guns and other firepower,” an insider told The ENQUIRER. “At first, O.J. was watching all this from a distance and didn’t even notice that two inmates were approaching him.

“Then, one of ‘The Girls’ spotted a flash of metal. It was sunlight reflecting from the blade of a knife wielded by a skinhead rushing at O.J.”

The source added: “At the same time, another one of ‘The Girls’ saw an attacker coming from the other side.

“The two skinheads charged toward O.J. They lunged at him and slashed at his face, coming close to cutting him. Luckily, they were blocked by his girly-man buddies. They may act like chicks but, believe me, they’re darn tough.”

Given the chance to escape, a terrified, O.J. ran for the safety of his cell, ducking and weaving through the brawling inmates.

“I don’t want to die,” O.J. cried as, fighting for his life, he dodged his enemies.

The cowardly football star later told a pal: “They came so close I could feel the wind as they swung their knives at my face and neck. I was thrashing my arms and trying to protect my face as I pushed and shoved to get away. Those knives would have ripped me up good.”

Simpson, who’s serving up to a 33-year sentence at the institution, had been complaining to authorities about his safety. But there’s only so much they can do since he insists on being in the general prison population, which means he spends time in the yard with rapists, sexual offenders and murderers.

“O.J. is taking a big risk because he doesn’t want to be in his cell for hours at a time and isolated from everyone else,” explained the insider. “Almost every day he sits around in the yard and holds court. ‘The Girls’ and other starstruck pals call him ‘The Godfather,’ and they are willing to protect him with their lives.”

Authorities say little can be done to safeguard their celebrity prisoner unless he agrees to leave the general prison population and enter the more protective, but lonelier, “administrative security” area.

“The skinheads want to kill him so they can have bragging rights,” said the insider. “They want the badge of honor as the guys who got O.J. Simpson!”

OK, OJ…Running heavy with the gay mafia.

WTF?

They keep us talking, but if we stop talking about them then they should worry! -illseed.
