Hip-Hop Rumors: Did G-Unit’s DJ Whoo Kid Almost Get Stabbed Over a 50 Cent Record???!!!

G-Unit’s DJ Whoo Kid recently revealed how Suge Knight set him up to get poked for putting an unreleased 2Pac verse onto 50 Cent’s track “The Realest Killaz”. Apparently, Suge set up a fake DJ’ing gig at a Los Angeles club so he could get the 34th street gang to put hands on the DJ.

Check out some exerps from DJ Whoo Kid’s interview with Thisis50.com:

“Suge Knight took it upon himself to ‘find me’ that day — the promoter got tricked, too. The promoter gave me the five G’s and once I got to the stage, of course, at the time ‘In Da Club’ was the biggest record, so of course the first record I played was ‘In Da Club.’ So as soon as I played ‘In Da Club,’ the whole club turned and looked at me…[then] the promoter came up to me and was like, ‘We gotta get you out of here — Suge Knight’s in the front.

“We’re trying to call the cops so he don’t come in, but he wants to come in’ [Then] we started running out the back, I’m jumping in the van, and then for some reason – I don’t know where, but [affiliate] C-Lo got the dirtiest looking gun I ever seen in my life, so I’m looking up and I see the 34th Street Gang running up to us with knives, so I’m like, ‘Holy sh*t, I’m about to get stabbed for some 50 sh*t!’ I’m like, ‘Yo, get the gun!’ By the time [C-Lo] grabs it…the police come — [C-Lo] throws the gun all the way to the back of the van. The cops grab the 34th Street Gang, and we peel off.”

Wow, he said Sha Money XL fainted!!! Suge was a scary dude back in the day. I think I would have fainted, too!!!

Bill Cosby: America’s Favorite Outspoken Dad On Not Being Asked To Be Born

Only a handful of notables can be considered kings or queens of their industry. Dr. William “Bill” H. Cosby, Jr. certainly is considered royal status. His remarkable works, including his stint as the most famous dad in television history on “The Cosby Show,”  have captured the hearts and minds of people across the globe. Cosby is a man who has touched virtually all areas in media – as a comedian, actor, producer, author, educator, musician, and activist, he has never lost a step along the way.

Now, as man on a new mission, the one and only Cosby made a stop in Durham, North Carolina, as part of a book tour in support of his latest literary contribution, I Didn’t Ask To Be Born, But I’m Sure Glad I Was. The comedian’s newest book muses about an array of ordinary stuff that he hopes will resonate with the average, avid reader.

 

Upon seeing the familiar colors of his old Alma Mata, Cosby gave one lucky fan at the book signing the memory of a lifetime. as he proceeded to sing his high school spirit song with the stranger with great pride. No doubt, his gesture and visit were part of his personal fight towards the advancement of education. And, there’s no doubt that at the end of the book signing, no one was mad at the long line. 

Hip-Hop Rumors: Nicki Minaj’s “Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded” Gets Pushed Back???!!!

Sorry Barb’s and Ken Barb’s, Nicki Minaj has officially announced that her highly anticipated album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, will be pushed back and will now be arriving on Tuesday, April 3rd.

“New Album Date: April 3rd. Pink Friday: ROMAN RELOADED. But have no fear. Tons of surprises before then ;). Love Always, HB,” she tweeted on January 20th.

Staying true to her word, Nicki dropped the music video for her single “Stupid H*e,” which, pretty safe to say, is an over glorified diss record towards Lil’ Kim. In the video, directed by Hype Williams, the animated Barbie rocks a closetful of wild and wacky looks in the explicit clip, which premiered online.

“Can’t premiere on a network b/c its important that my art is not tampered with, or compromised prior to you viewing it for the 1st time,” explained Nicki. Unleash the beast.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Is Drake Spending 45K a Month in Rent??!!

Life must be really good for Drake!! He has several 5 l-star chicks (insert name here — Serena, Nebby, Dollicia, etc.), he’s been consistently at the top of the charts, and now he has an amazing mega mansion match. The YMCMB rappa/singa is reportedly renting out a mega mansion in Los Angeles for a staggering $45,000 a month!!! Check out some photos of the crib below:

Drizzy’s new $9 million house is located in the swanky Hidden Hills area of Los Angeles and is enormous at 7500 square feet. The crib is fit for a king and has several tennis courts for those days when Serena wants to come over, a movie theater, massage room, several outside cabanas, an indoor swimming pool, and it even has its own waterfall and grotto!

I wonder how many “playboy mansion” style parties Drake will be indulging in at his new home. But I have to wonder, is all that worth $45,000 a month in rent??!!!

Hip Hop Rumors: Is Little Jaden Smith Joining Young Money??!!!

Jaden Smith is reportedly in talks with Lil’ Wayne to join his YMCMB record label. Sources say Jaden is a huge fan of Drake and Tyga and wants to join the roster so that he can work with them on a consistent basis.

I wonder why he isn’t considering joining Roc Nation along with his lil’ sis, Willow? I know one thing, if Will and Jada let Jaden join YMCMB, they are truly out of their scientology minds!!!

Hip Hop Rumors: Jay-Z’s 40/40 Restaurant Shut Down By The Health Department???!!!

Wow, just a few days after a star-studded grand opening that included the likes of billionaire Warren Buffett and a Who’s-Who of Hip-Hop artists, Jay-Z’s 40/40 restaurant has been closed down by the health department.

According to the NY Post:

Jay-Z’s 40/40 Club was shut down for a slew of health-code violations just a day after its celebrity-drenched $10 million relaunch — and now it faces a dreaded “C” grade, The Post has learned. An inspector found perishable food at dangerously warm temperatures inside the walk-in refrigerator and discovered “hot” food left out on the counter on Thursday, Health Department sources said. A worker was also seen mixing salsa with his bare hands.

The refrigerator was at a rancid 60 degrees instead of 41 — jeopardizing the safety of 50 pounds of raw chicken wings, five pounds of raw shrimp and 100 turkey burgers, the sources said. Five pounds of cooked mashed potatoes, meanwhile, were left out at a temperature of 89 degrees, while 10 pounds of cooked rice and 50 turkey burgers were kept at 67 degrees. All the hot foods should be at least 140 degrees, the sources said. The club’s restaurant was immediately closed, and new patrons were barred from entering. Those already inside were allowed to remain.

“If you have a walk-in place with food like this, you put a hell of a lot of people at risk,” said a source. “A night of dinner and dancing should not include the risk of contracting food-borne illness.”

Ewwww, mixing salsa with his bare hands, and possibly spreading food-borne illnesses! That’s disgusting! A C-grade is not the business. All I gotta say is, if you have dinner at the 40/40, stay away from the wings, shrimp, mashed potatoes, turkey burgers, and, most of all, the salsa! Dang, is there anything else left on the menu?!
