My sources told me that L.A. Reid was staying around the Def Jam offices through the year, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Apparently, the big guy has defected a bit earlier than expected. You know, but a lot of complaining has been going on over Reid’s management style and his affinity for R&B…and lack of Rap swag. At any rate, his emails have reportedly been bouncing causing many to suspect he’s already left.

At least he got Shyne’s undying love and adoration.

YOUNG BUCK TO SUE THE IRS?

We all were happy that Young Buck was wise enough to stave of an IRS Auction, but it looks like he is going on the offensive. The well known rapper is reportedly suing the Internal Revenue Service, because they attempted to auction off how he makes his money! He owes about $300,000 and they weren’t giving him any slack! He’s also looking to 50 Cent as well, but that’s a whole different rumor.

NELLY AND ASHANTI?

Off or on? That is the question. People see them together and wonder just that. They were out at a private listening session for his new album and Ashanti was smiling all damn night. That means they are an item and aren’t saying a word. Good for them.

Here is a pic.

JOKES ON CHINGY?

The word on the street is that Chingy’s tranny stalker Sidney Starr is actually a big ol’ HOAX. People are saying she’s actually a real woman.

ILLSEED’S QUICKIES

I am hearing that Montana Fishbourne is still in treatment for hoe-dom and is getting better. Too bad she had to go and do full-fledged p### before realizing…I’m sick.

At least T.I. can take the kids trick or treating. He’s due in Nov. 1.

Bobby and Whitney were seen out on a “date.” I know there is no way they are back together.

Finally some justice! Anna Nicole Smith’s lawyer/boyfriend Howard K. Stern guilty of excessively drugging the busty star.

CIARA AS STORM

Ciara may just have moved herself onto the A-List. She appeared in Vegas for a Halloween party as Storm of the X-Men. Welllllllllll…she was in control of more than the weather.

RIHANNA – JUST BECAUSE.

On the set of her new vid with Drake.

NICKI MINAJ – JUST BECAUSE

I know that poet did her thing on Nicki, but…wow.

I AIN’T MAD AT TERRENCE J!

Do you know who made Terrence J go nuts on 106 & Park?

NICKI, WE LOVE YOU!They keep us talking, but if we stop talking about them then they should worry!

Exclusive: Jam Master Jay’s Final Message To AllHipHop.com

Eight-years ago today, the Hip-Hop community lost one of its important members, Jason “Jam Master Jay” Mizell.Jay was a founding member of pioneering Hip-Hop group, Run-DMC. The world-famous DJ was shot and killed at point-blank range in his recording studio 24/7 in Hollis, Queens, on October 30th, 2002. The death of Jam Master Jay set of a frenzy of speculation as to who would murder such an iconic figure, in cold blood. The rumor mill pointed fingers at everyone and every possible scenario: * Jay was killed by a childhood associated named Curtis Scoon, over a deal involving Rolex watches.  Jay was allegedly dealing drugs. * Jay was killed for associating with 50 Cent, who was enemies with Kenneth “Supreme” McGriff, who supposedly had a contract out on Jam Master Jay’s life. The theory everyone focused on centered around a group of Jam Master Jay’s close friends, the people in the recording studio the night Jam Master Jay was gunned down. While no one has been charged, there were at least five witnesses present in the recording studio, in addition to other possible witnesses around the area the DJ was murdered. Fans and family members are hoping the NYPD or the FBI can get it right for once and find a cold blooded killer, who robbed the world of a father, brother, uncle and DJ who was adored by millions of fans around the world. Surviving group members Joseph “Rev Run” Simmons and Darryl “DMC” McDaniels were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2009. They continue to give back to their communities through their works with at risk children through various charitable organizations.But the legacy of Run-DMC’s will be tarnished if the murder of the third member of their ground breaking group remains unsolved. Despite the embarrassing fact that one of New York’s most adored artists could be murdered and no one ever charged, the family is attempting to move on. According to Eric “Shake” James, a close friend and business associate of Jam Master Jay, the family is still coping with Jay’s death, but they are doing well, all things considered.  “As far as the family everybody is doing well,” Shake told AllHipHop.com. “I know Jason is looking down from heaven and he’s so proud of all of us! The boys are off in school and doing great! I know he’s happy for the success  of his friends. Sha Money XL up at Def Jam, 50 Cent and G-Unit,  AllHipHop.com, Steve Lobel with Nipsey Hu$sle and Iyaz, Jessie Itzler, Orv Hall at Hollis Burger and especially Erik Blam and DMC for keeping it moving and keeping his name alive!..’What’s my name?”Jam Master Jay’ ‘I can’t hear you!’ ‘Jam Master Jay’ ‘A lil bit louder!’ ‘Jam Master Jay!’Jam Master Jay’s son is now involved in the Hip-Hop community, under the name “JMJ-Son,” a clever play off of his birthname, Jason Mizell Jr. “It’s really strange to lose a parent, in that form or in any manner,” J-Son told NBC New York.  “It was certain lessons I never got taught losing my father at a young age. It’s certain things you tend to tell your son as he gets older. I had to go and search for things in the world on my own.”Below is a message  Jam Master Jay left on AllHipHop.com founder Grouchy Greg’s answering machine,  just a month before the legendary DJ was shot and killed.  You can hear Jam Master Jay’s passion for Hip-Hop and Turntablism in the message below, which announced the launch of the Scratch Hip-Hop Academy, shortly before Jay’s death.  Additionally, here are some previous interviews with Jam Master Jay’s mother Connie Mizell-Perry,  Carl “Big D.” Jordan and the most important one with Randy Allen, who was in the recording studio with Jam Master Jay the night he was shot and killed.   

Paul Wall, Travis Barker Experience Success With Expensive Taste Clothing Line

(AllHipHop News) Houston rapper Paul Wall recent took the time to talk about his successes with his music and his clothing line with Travis Barker, Expensive Taste. “We got our clothing line Expensive Taste and its been active for a few years, but its really starting to take off especially in the Texas markets, being its where I’m from,” Paul Wall told AllHipHop.com.Narrowing their focus to street wear, the Expensive Taste clothing brand is launching a whole new line of gear set to hit stores this fall. “We have a new line that we are getting ready to drop, the street wear in the past has always been good for us,” and excited Paul Wall added. “We have the shirts and the beanies, the hoodies, a few girl products and designs, so a lot of stores have been giving a lot of support.”Paul also gave AllHipHop an idea of how the brand expanded to its current levels of success and how it has evolved from a musical project to a clothing company. “The clothing line came about because we started a group together and a while back the group the Transplants had took a break, and when they did that we formed this group called Expensive Taste as a music group, and we couldn’t get the record label to get behind us for who knows why,” Paul told AllHipHop.com.”We had already been selling a lot of tour merchandise and on the tour and over the internet we had a pretty big following. Mr. Cartoon did our original Expensive Taste logo and its been amazing how many people believe in the brand and are a part of the brand,” Paul Wall continued. “Its our lifestyle and its just everyday clothes to make us feel comfortable about our lifestyle.”While the clothing business is starting to take off, Paul Wall and Travis Barker have not abandoned their plans to create music together. Over the past month, the pair have been in the recording studio making material to be released in 2011. “I have been working a lot and recording in California out in LA with Travis Barker out in his studio and also my boy Marty James and doing a lot of stuff with him and so sometime next year I am going to be putting out a new album and recording music,” Paul Wall revealed.  “I Haven’t come out with a name or a concept, but I am just getting the ball rolling and recording music.”

Black Eyed Peas Accused Of Stealing Songs By Two Artists

(AllHipHop News) The Black Eyed Peas have been sued from planiffs that allege that the Hip-Hop/pop group copied “I Got a Feeling,” and “Boom Boom Pow,” two of their most popular hits.

Both suits were filed on Thursday November 28 in federal courts in Santa Ana and Los Angeles.

A Texas-based songwriter named Bryan Pringle filed the Santa Ana suit and charges his song, “Take a Dive,” was taken deliberately and re-christened “I Gotta Feeling.”

The Los Angeles lawsuit is a refilling of a previous claim from Chicago rapper Phoenix Phenom (nee Ebony Latrice Batts), and her producer Manfred Mohr. They allege that the Black Eyed Peas infringed on their song “Boom Dynamite” and made it into “Boom Boom Pow.”

Like the lawsuit filed in January of 2010, Batts claims that The Black Eyed Peas stole portions of her song “Boom Dynamite” and reused them in their worldwide hit single, “Boom Boom Pow.”Both Pringle and Batts are now represented by Dean A. Dickie of Miller Canfield, Ira Gould of Gould Law Group and George Hampton IV of HamptonHolley LLP. “Both Complaints allege that the Defendants UMG Recordings, Interscope Records and members of the Black Eyed Peas engaged in a pattern and practice of intentional copyright infringement with respect to the unlawful copying of songs of unknown or lesser-known artists. It is public knowledge that there have been multiple copyright infringement cases or claims brought against the Black Eyed Peas within the last year, and they are referred to in the Complaint,” said Dickie. “A simple listening to the songs will expose them as having been copied and being ‘substantially similar’– the legal standard in copyright infringement cases.”

UMG Recordings and Interscope Records are included in the Los Angeles complaint.

Both lawsuit request damages, past and future profits, credits and royalty payments.
