Nicki Minaj Joins Mariah Carey, Randy Jackson and Keith Urban on American Idol

(AllHipHop News) “American Idol” has announced that Nicki Minaj has officially been added to the roster of new judges on “American Idol.”

Wasting no time getting started, the judges hosted their first round of auditions in New York City, amidst the usual frenzy and pandemonium associated with “American Idol.”

It was just last week that rumors swirled of a possible rift with Mariah Carey and the YMCMB first lady, after comments reportedly made by Carey.

For the first season, Fox will reportedly pay Nicki Minaj $12 million.

Carey will make over $18 million dollars for joining the quartet of judges, formerly a trio, with Keith Urban and Randy Jackson rounding out the cast.

“Nicki’s an unbelievably captivating international phenomenon who has made an indelible mark on rap and pop. And Keith is … one of the biggest stars in country music and I know that our fans and contestants will fall in love with him,” Fox reality programming chief Mike Darnell said in a statement.

During the 2011-12 season, “American Idol” was named as the leading entertainment show and No. 2 overall, just behind NBC’s top-rated “Sunday Night Football.”

In January 2013, Ryan Seacrest will continue as host of the Fox show that is now in its 12th season.

“American Idol” has spawned the careers of Fantasia, Jennifer Hudson, Ruben Studdard, Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson, Jordin Sparks, and many others.

Hip-Hop Rumors: @Tyrese Jumps Into @JcoleNC And @diggy_simmons Beef!

UPDATE: DIGGY RETURNS FIRE!

Power 105 busted out with a new Diggy diss this morning! Shout out to C Tha God, Angela Yee and Envy.
It looks like J. Cole won’t be using that help that Tyrese offered. He has recorded a new diss for Mr. Cole World. And he takes some personal jabs. Here is what Diggy had to say to J. Cole.

“I guess I rattled you, snaggletooth/You know better/Thought J stood for Jermaine, not Jet Setter/You seen me and shook my hand, coppin’ pleas in person/ Now you wack, less than a man, mention me in verses. Man, you used to have dreams of my big sister kissin’ ya / Now its nightmares of a young brother dissin’ ya / Sneak disses and jabs, I don’t really see the benefit/But I guess you lame enough, probably keep you relevant.”

But then, Diggy swoops in for the kill….

“Maybe you should have signed with me instead of Mr. Carter, I guess you mad at me ’cause I have a relationship with my father…”

Here it is…

THE EARLIER STUFF….

This is rather random! Tyrese is now riding for Diggy Simmons after J. Cole dissed the son of Run on a rap. Damn. How do you diss the son of run? LOL! Here is what Cole World said.

“The game need balance, the game need balance / woke up to the rumors of ni**as wildin’ / picture me hatin’ on a young ni**a with talent/ Album flopped but it’s cool – he caked out on his allowance”

OUCH.

So Tyrese jumps into the fray for a seemingly defenseless Diggy.

(Note: when I first posted this, I forgot this picture of the Tyrese tweet.)

Don’t forget, Tyrese is a rapper too. His rap name is Black Ty and he’s from Watts.

Here is the vid of J. Cole’s diss. Its at about the 2 minute mark. He also did this at Rock The Bells, but I just didn’t bother to report on it.

Diggy did kinda flop, but why? He was pretty cool for that kid lane.

But, Cole…this kid is 17.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Meek Mill And Roc Nation Beefing Already?!

MMG rapper Meek Mill just signed a management deal with Roc Nation in May, and it looks like there may already be trouble in paradise. Although Roc Nation has just scored Meek a lucrative endorsement deal with Skull Candy, the rapper blasted the management company on his Twitter account, calling them “dumb.” Check out his tweet below:

Meek’s beef with Roc Nation stems from a performance at a nightclub he was booked for in Brooklyn. We hear security was not up to par, and although Meek was in the venue, he was forced to forfeit his performance.

Instead of being upset with the club, Meek lashed out at his management company over Twitter. As you know, Roc Nation is owned and operated by Jay-Z. I wonder how he feels about Meek Mill essentially calling him a “dumb ass?”
