(AllHipHop News) Philly Rapper Tone Trump recently spoke AllHipHop.com about his upcoming mixtape, The New Fresh Prince.

Tone Trump’s latest offering, which the rapper says is more of an album than a mixtape, will feature a variety of producers.

He named the project “The New Fresh Prince” as a tribute to legendary Philadelphia rapper Will Smith, in addition to other reasons.

“He’s from West Philly, I’m from West Philly and alot of times he gets alot of hate,” Tone Trump told AllHipHop.com. “People hate on Will ..people hate on me ! I think Will is living proof dreams come true and I’m living my dream right now. He use to walk the same streets as me and now hes almost a billionaire,  friends with the president ..all things I see in my future.”

While many rappers claim the title of “King,” Tone Trump is content taking the title “prince.”

“Everyone wants to be king of the world and king of they city ..king of they hood,” Tone Trump told AllHipHop.com. “To me prince sounds flyer. I’m the prince, someone else is the king. There are alot of kings in Philly and I pay homage to all of them.”

“The New Fresh Prince” will be available for download on March 1.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Did Yasiin Bey aka Mos Def Diss The Throne?!

Yasiin Bey aka Mos Def recently released a remix to The Throne’s “Ni**a’s In Paris” entitled “Ni**ga’s in Poorest” to commemorate the anniversary of Malcom X’s death. On the track Yasiin Bey takes the exact opposite approach that Kanye West and Jay-Z took on the track and instead raps about poverty and violence. The tone is somewhat chastising towards the original track with Yasiin rapping:

“Don’t get caught up in no throne,” and “Who the f-ck is Margiela?”

This is all pretty odd considering that last time we check, Yasiin Bey was a G.O.O.D. Music affiliate. Check out the video and lyrics below:

“These young bloods is looking scary at the mall
They wearing pants, you can still see they drawers
They rob a n#### in the bathroom stall
They took his life cause he ain’t want to take it off
Poor so hard, that sh-t cray, ain’t it, Bey? Diabetics, fish filet
Poor so hard, your house so cold, ni–a, it ain’t spring
Every winter landlord f-ckin’ with my heat again
Bougie girl, grab your hand, show you how to do this ghetto dance
F-ck your French, we ain’t in France, I’m just saying
Prince Williams ain’t do it right, if you ask me
If I was him, I’d put some black up in my family
Fake Gucci, my ni–a, fake Louis, my killa
Real drugs, my dealer, who the f-ck is Margiela?
Doctors say I’m the illest, I ain’t got no insurance
It’s them ni–as in poorest, be them rebel guerillas, huh”

Do you think Yasiin Bey is taking shots at The Throne?

Hip-Hop Rumors: Chris Brown vs. CM Punk Going Down At Wrestlemania!?

Let’s be real. This whole Internet/Twitter beef between these two didn’t just come out of nowhere for entertainment’s sake, or did it? It’s more than a safe bet to say that this “war or Twitter words” is all happening to build up to this year’s Wrestlemania which is just a little over a month away.

In the past, personas from all entertainment fields like acting, music, fashion, etc. have all made appearances in some highly-publicized fashion doing WWE events. Why should now be any different??

John Cena is already set to take on The Rock at Wrestlemania in one of the most highly anticipated matches in WWE history, so why would thinking that Chris Brown could be “fighting” CM Punk be unrealistic? It’s not, at all!

Last year, actor Mickey Rourke and wrestler Chris Jericho got into a very similar war of words. Low and behold, Mr. Rourke popped up at Wrestlemania in a not so surprising turn of events!

Now the match that Punk is involved in is currently scheduled for Wrestlemania on April 1, 2012 and has CM Punk going up against Chris Jericho.

You’re hearing it here first, DO NOT BE SURPRISED if Chris Breezy slides into the ring at an opportune moment during the match and fights alongside Chris “Y2J” Jericho.

Any wrestling fans out there with some insight? Do you think this is a reality, and if so, who’s going to “win”???

“I don’t like anything about Drake. I don’t like his f*cking voice. I don’t like what he talks about. I don’t like his face. I don’t like the way he walks. Like, nothing. I don’t like his haircut. I might just… Let me shut up, I’ll just stop right there.”

DMX also said that he was not impressed by Rick Ross and says all he raps about is food and weed! DMX also speaks about his issues with Jay-Z and how he feels Jay stalled his career when he took over as President at Def Jam.

X was very open in the interview, and in addition to his shots at Drake, Jay-Z and Rick Ross, he also talked about his substance abuse problems, why he impersonated a Federal Agent, and shared memories from his movie set experiences. Check out the full interview here.
