When rumors first surfaced back in January about Lil Wayne’s plan to release a rock album called Rebirth (Cash Money/Universal), a collective wave of WTF? quickly spread over the Internet. But, fear not: According to Bryan “Baby” Williams, Wayne’s mentor and father figure, as well as Cash Money Records co-CEO, the new album is less about Wayne going rock and more about him experimenting and growing as an artist.
“It’s not a rock record,” Baby told VIBE recently during an exclusive interview.
“That’s what I think people are getting misunderstood. When you speaking about a rock record, you think he’s got a guitar and everything, but it’s not that. It’s going to be some of those types of beats, but it’s just great music. I don’t think no artist can do what he about to get done. My son is a rock star.”
“He can rap, he can sing, he’s just an artist,” he says. “I don’t think no one will ever be greater because I don’t think no one puts in the time or the quality. If someone do come along, can you imagine what he’ll have to do?
He got to put out on thousand mixtapes, do a thousand records sell 100 million records. 2Pac, Jay-Z and Biggie didn’t get to the shit Wayne’s done.”
Originally slated for an April release, Rebirth is now scheduled to drop on June 16. In related news, Baby’s fourth solo album Priceless (Cash Money/Universal) will also drop in June. The lead single from that album, “Always Strapped,” features Lil Wayne and is currently available on iTunes.
Wednesday rapper T-Pain suffered a serious injury. Lil Kim was shooting the video for her new single “Download” featuring T-Pain on Friday and the shoot was interrupted when T-Pain injured himself on a golf cart.
T-Pain was “fooling around” on a golf cart with one of his boys – and dude pushed him off. The insider explains, “T-Pain’s whole mouth was busted, 4 of his teeth fell out and they said his jaw was broken.”
Shortly after the accident, an ambulance came to the set and rushed T-Pain off the scene and to a nearby hospital.
Neither T-Pain, nor his reps have commented on the incident.

Judge Charles Pannell Jr. told the rapper he had more than exceeded the court’s expectations, and he hoped his case would inspire similar plea deals.
As a part of the plea deal T.I. (real name: Clifford Harris) struck last March, the year-and-a-day sentence was expected. The rapper is also required to complete 1,000 hours of community service before turning himself in, and another 500 hours after completing his sentence. He also must pay a $100,000 fine.
Tip is scheduled to report to prison voluntarily within the next six to eight weeks. However, the judge acknowledged that the rapper has agreed-upon commitments what will not allow him to enter prison before May 19.
T.I., in a charcoal-grey suit and matching black dress shirt and tie, delivered a sober speech to the judge. His 10-minute speech details his misguided youth, the death of his best friend Philant Johnson in 2006, and his desire to use his mistakes for a positive end.
“Your honor, pehaps if I didn’t make the mistakes that I did as a youth, maybe I could have armed myself legally,” he said.
T.I. said Johnson’s death contributed to impairing his judgment.
A number of supporters spoke before Tip, including church activists Ambassador Andrew Young and Bishop Eddie Long.
Judge Pannell listened to each supporter and graciously thanked T.I. for successfully meeting the terms of his plea deal and the conditions of his bond.
Several times throughout his closing remarks, Judge Pannell called T.I.’s arrangement “experimental.” He singled out the U.S. Attorney responsible for the deal and joked, “If this didn’t work, I’d send you to jail, Mr. Harris – but the attorney, I’d probably throw him out the 23rd-floor window.” The remark drew laughs and Tip smiled as well.
T.I. thanked the government legal team for their “vision” and told the courtroom that pleasing the judge and lawyers makes him as happy as him trying to please his family.
The rapper must agree on meeting a number of conditions after his release. He will be required to submit to an audit, drug counseling and he will be subjected to home confinement for 60 days.
A beaming T.I. celebrated with his family immediately afterward, before court officers ordered people to leave the floor. Tip held a brief press conference after inside the courthouse lobby, thanking his family and supporters.
Rapper Flo Rida is reportedly being sought by police for accusations of animal cruelty following a retail store visit in Kentucky.The “Low” hitmaker is being accused of brutally killing a rabbit.
Lexington Police searching for Flo Rida’s tour bus in several states on allegations of animal cruelty. According to an Animal Control officer, a witness reportedly observed the tour bus stopping the location, where two men got out of the bus. The witness told police men from the bus committed an act of cruelty to an animal. Police have said the animal was a rabbit, and without being graphic, they say the witness reportedly saw the men kill it and then leave. (WKYT News)
While Flo may not be direclty connected to the act, authorities are still on the prowl for his tour bus.
Lexington Police, Kentucky State Police and Lexington Animal Control began investigating the incident. Police put out an attempt to locate the tour bus, which is reportedly heading to Columbus, Ohio. They would like to question the occupants on the tour bus. (AHH)
The rapper was in Kentucky promoting the release of his album R.O.O.T.S.
RIHANNA’S NEW TATTOO AND JEWELRY SHOWS THAT SHE’S RECENTLY BECOME OBSESSED WITH GUNS!!
AHH!! What’s up with her gun fascination as of late.
Actually Rihanna has four guns tattooed on her upper torso. Is something wrong with this child?
Does Rihanna have a thing for violence and violent imagery?
Is She trying To Tell Chris Something!!!
T-Pain’s father is upset. First he lashed out at T-Pain for not giving him enough paper. Now dude is apparently lashing out against Akon.
Here’s what he told Ozone Magazine:
Akon and Bu are nasty ass n*ggas. They’re supposed to be Muslims but there’s nothing Islamic about what they did to my family. They’ve got us walking around in disgrace because their greedy asses want all the cars, all the women, all the pleasure, and all the opportunity. They know it’s fucked up, and I’ll tell ‘em to their face if I’m ever in their presence again. But they duck me because they know I’ve got a bullshit shield. They know I’m bullshit-proof; that’s why they back-doored my son.
Akon sends his little brother in so his hands will be clean. I listened to the dumb stuff that little boy said. He couldn’t hold a good conversation with me so he sold my teenager a bunch of dreams. I don’t need a dream merchant in my life. I’m not buying dreams. I’m a grown man. I really don’t appreciate Akon because he has no integrity. He’s never kept his word. When we first met and he introduced himself as “Akon,” I’ve got a metaphoric mentality, so I thought, “a con”? A con what? A con man? A convict? I don’t even know his real name. I’ll slap the shit outta Akon. He’s a thieving, un-Islamic, back-stabbin’ p*ssy. Put that in the book. I’m hotheaded enough to tell him that to his face.
I get a retirement check, but it’s not a lot of money. I’m on my ass right now, and I don’t deserve to be on my ass. All my money is gone and I’m struggling like I’m on social security. I should be honored for creating the most phenomenal thang that ever came out of Tallahassee. I saw God had given for music. I was him; that’s how I identified it. I was Mr. Music in high school. I was the drum major, director of the student choir and concert band; a very popular guy in the Marching 100.
WOW!! I wonder how T. Pain Feels about Akon
A good friend of my good friend called me today and said that he had been told by a very, very reliable source that Lil Kim is going to be joining TLC. YES. Lil Kim assuming the rapper role in TLC? Well, here is the latest. The details are being worked out where Kim will join them on their tour in Japan that’s coming up. OK, at first it sounded crazy, but on second thought, not so insane. Kim in an established name in the game and going overseas, they will probably fare well. I don’t know if this is a permanent change, but as a temporary move…not a bad idea.
Remember when a group of people associated with Akon knocked out Los Angeles rap mogul Marion “Suge” Knight in Arizona. Well it may just be a coincidence – but last night a group of goons ran up one of Akon’s boy’s crib.
Last night, one Akon’s employees – who was allegedly involved in the whole Suge Knight beatdown – had his home robbed at gunpoint.
Here’s how TMZ is reporting things:
We’ve now spoken with one of the victims of the home invasion robbery early this morning — a man who works for Detail, Akon’s producer — and he says Suge Knight and money are behind the incident.
Christoper Walker tells us at about 3:00 AM five men broke into his home with guns and said they were there to collect a debt on behalf of Suge Knight. They claimed Detail owed Suge money, and then proceeded to collect on the debt.
Walker says Detail was asleep in one of the bedrooms. The men entered the bedroom but did not get Detail out of bed. Instead, they stole $170,000 worth of jewelry from his room.
Walker adds they demanded a key to the safe and said they would kill all four people in the house if they didn’t get it. The robbers didn’t get the key — instead, they took the 130 pound safe.
Walker says they also took stereo equipment and a key to a Mercedes. He claims the total heist was more than $200,000. A police source tells us it’s more like $300,000.
Walker says the feud ignited in Arizona during NBA All-Star weekend when Suge got his face smashed in by two men who worked for Akon. Walker says that incident was over the same alleged debt that triggered this morning’s home invasion.
Walker says the robbers put a gun to his head and forced him to the ground but he and the others were just scratched up. Walker’s brother and a sound engineer were also in the house.
50 Cent may enjoy dressing up in a wig and fake nails a little too much. In the past few weeks, 50′s been dressing up as the character “Curly” in comedic online videos. But now – it seems like 50′s playing dress up even when the cameras are off.
Here’s what a popular Las Vegas newspaper is reporting:
50 is in Vegas to be in Eminem’s 1st single video for his album coming out May 19. He was spotted getting his nails done, wearing a wig, and going to Vegas shows with Ciara (also trying to disguise herself). They spent the weekend watching Cirque du Soleil shows.
Fitty and Ciara were at O inside the Bellagio last night with 50 in disguise, wearing an afro wig, baseball cap and sunglasses while Ciara was sporting a parka. They got to their seats as the show started, escorted by a body guard, and left right before the performance ended.
Solange Knowles was assaulted over the weekend. According to one of someone who attended Solange’s Austin concert on Saturday – a fan punched Beyonce’s baby sis in the face.
I just wanted to say that Solange got punched in the face. The dumb though that it would be cute for her to jump into the while singing. Some guy was drunk and put up his fist when Solange jumped and hit her right in the chin. He acted like it was an accident, but I saw afterwards and he was laughing about it with his friends.
I know it hurt , but she kept the show moving. When she climbed back up she said something like, “Some guy punched my in the lip” but then she just danced and sang like everything was cool.
Chris Brown has decided to get a college degree,
Chris is trying to enroll for classes at Virginia’s Norfolk State University. He and his mother attended this weekend’s open house at the prestigious Virginia university – and were anxious to sign up for classes.
Word is Chris’ mother thinks that getting a college degree would be a good move for Chris.
And we agree. At least now, if his career doesn’t rebound – he can have a degree to fall back on.
TI’s baby mother Tameka “Tiny” Cottle recently gave an interview with Essence magazine. In it, Tiny gave some insight into her relationship with T.I.
ESSENCE: What do you think is the biggest misconception people have about you and T.I.’s relationship?
TINY: That we’re not a real couple. They think because we’re not married yet and have been engaged for two years that something must be wrong. I know it’s a long time, but there are so many restrictions placed upon him now before we can think about planning a wedding. There is so much love between us it’s ridiculous, and we like time together. So the things that people say and write about us doesn’t bother me. I know what we have and what he shows me every day and that’s all that matters.
ESSENCE: Do you have any words of encouragement for women who might be going through a similar situation as you?
TINY: Yes. Depending on the situation and the person, you should stick it out through thick and thin—the good and bad times. If you know you’re with someone who would give his life for you and is somewhat a responsible better half, then stand up for him. I know my man’s heart and because of that I’m going to be everything I need to be for him. Yes, he’s made mistakes, but so have I.
If your man stands up for you and is there whenever you need him, then doesn’t he deserve your unconditional love and support? If I know that about my man, then that’s the kind of woman I’m going to be for him. I might need him in different ways than he needs me, but if being his woman means loving, supporting and putting his mind at ease, then the least I can do is step up to the plate and be there for him and our family.
According to new online reports, Chris Brown and Rihanna may have filmed some bootleg sex tapes and Rihanna is now scared that they will leak after she split with Chris.
Star magazine says a sex tape of Rihanna and BF Chris Brown exists! Star reports Rihanna, 21, allowed Chris, 19, to record what happens behind closed doors and she’s worried the tapes will ruin her reputation.A source tells the mag, “Rihanna has no issues with her sexuality.” The source continues, “She’d be mortified if her friends and family found this out!”Rumors are also swirling about the couple taking a break. It was reported Brown was spotted getting off a plane with another woman in Virginia. Some say this could be a new girlfriend! – Extra TV
I’m not sure if this is a fabricated story but my girl nicole will tell you a true story…
Last year a friend of mine contacted me and told me they had a friend that wanted to sell me some photos. I said “cool, tell him to send me a sample so I can see what he has”. The guy hits me up and sends me a tagged photo of the singer Cassie topless. I’m like “whoa, I didn’t know he meant these types of photos. Before I could respond, he sent over two more photos. One with the subject “Rihanna’s p*ssy” and it was a photo of a girl the complexion of Rihanna, with her butt to the camera that looked like it could have been taken by someone that she was about to sit on. The second was a photo of a girl that looked EXACTLY like Rihanna with just her underwear, breast out with the signature tattoo she has going down the side of her hip visible. At first I thought the tattoo was on the wrong side of her body, but realized she was standing in the mirror and I was looking at her reflection. I emailed the guy back and said
“I’m sorry but I can’t do anything with these photos because I refuse to attach my name to something like that. I’m sure there are other sites that would jump at the opportunity of buying these from you but I can’t…”
He then asked if I could be the middle man between him and “said” sites and I never responded.
So whether Rihanna and Chris has a sex tape is questionable but we do know some photos exist…..
More DRAMA from the Atlanta housewives. A few days ago that Sheree got PUNCHED … well now it’s NeNe and Kim’s turn.
According to one of our snitches, the two ladies went at it last night. The insider explained, “Kim and NeNe were yelling at the top of their lungs … and NeNe had her finger in Kim’s face.”
The insider claims that they caused such a commotion that neighbors had to CALL THE POLICE to get them to stop.
“The neighbors were upset with all the noise,”
But luckily for all, the night ended without anyone getting arrested. The tipster explained to MediaTakeOut.com, “Bravo Bravo threw out everyone – because the situation was becoming dangerous.”
DUH-RAMA!!! The New York Housewives are heating up … but if this gets any juicier, they may have to cut the season short to get to these crazy broads..
Lil Wayne is slated to be the first recording star to appear in a revamped version of the hit VH1 series “Behind The Music” ! After covering the lives of everyone from Mary J. Blige to LL Cool J prior to 2006, VH1’s “Behind The Music” took a break. Today, VH1 executive vice president of original programming says “It felt like the time is right”. “There’s all sorts of new artists on the scene who have emerged and have these great stories. And there’s other artists that we always wanted to do the first time around.” According to the Hollywood Reporter, VH1 has ordered 10 new episodes of “Music”due to air later this year. Grammy Award-winning musician Scott Weiland has reportedly signed on for the series with Lil Wayne. Other participating entertainers will be revealed at a later date.
There was an incident at the party in New York that Vince Carter hosted where basically Queen threw a drink on Rocsi and they were arguing, security and even Vince were trying to break it up luckily it did not escelade. There’s already been words exchanged and “beef”between them in the past. They tell me Rocsi took the high road and walked away. Queen Pen has been known to Fight dudes by the way.
HERES THE OLD BEEF:
There is some REAL DRAMA going on at this season of BET’s College Hill. The VERY FIRST EPISODE has already cost one of the castmembers to get put out. Apparently she starts fighting and acting crazy – and everyone decides that she’s got to go.
But the chick, whose name is Terri, is now speaking out about what she claims went down.
Here’s a portion of it:
While in the house, a fight took place between me and another cast member. After I was assaulted the producers disconnected the phone in the house so that I couldn’t call police and then had me basically held against my will at a hotel in Miami.
They wouldn’t let me get near a phone for hours until they had a camera crew to film me (I guess because they wanted to film me crying out for my mother). I remember being in the hotel and running to the first phone I saw to call my parents after the fight and having it pulled out of my hands by one of the people on the shows staff.
She then pulled the phone out of the wall and hid it from me. Can you imagine how that felt! I just wanted to call my parents after being involved in a fight and all these people were thinking about was how to get me on film during my state of weakness.
The producers of the show also had me held in a limo and told the driver to take me to some location that they wanted to film me crying after the fight. When I heard of the producer’s plans, I paid the driver money from my own pocket to take me to my family’s house in South Florida.
When the producers got word that I was going home to be with me family instead of whatever location that they wanted me to go, they called the driver and told him to lock the doors on the car and not to let me get out until he took me to where they wanted. The driver didn’t feel comfortable taking me somewhere against my will and instead drove me to my family’s house.
When I was at the hotel in Miami, my family called the Miami Police and several media outlets to come up to the hotel because I was being held against my will (YES THE PRODUCERS TOLD ME I COULD NOT LEAVE!!!)The media waited outside the hotel to interview the producers but they were hiding in the room because they didn’t want to be exposed
Oh and we got some more inside info. Apparently Terri and her mother made some statements that had the remaining College Hill castmembers very nervous, during the filming of the show, one of the castmembers was given 24 hour security – to protect her from Terri.
Jay Z can add a new title to his list of accomplishments – platinum selling rapper, NBA owner, real estate mogul, restaurateur … and now business manager. We just got EXCLUSIVE confirmation that Jigga has begun managing recording artists.
And it’s not just new artists either. Jigga’s first artist is R&B singer Brandy Norwood. Brandy had been managed for most of her career by her mother Sonya Norwood. It’s not clear whether Jigga’s “management” deal with Brandy will be exclusive – or whether Sonya will stay on as a co-manager.
Singer Keyshia Cole’s sister Neffe has confirmed that she is pregnant again after given birth to a baby boy just about a year ago. She tells Sister2Sister magazine that her pregnancy was unexpected. “I’m pregnant and I got an attitude with and i don’t want him to … touch me right now—or ever because it was not supposed to happen this way. Now I’m trying to figure this out, ’cause I just had Jaylen.” Jaylen is Neffe’s youngest son, born just last year after the BET reality star decided to keep him in lieu of aborting. This baby will be the first for Neffe and her fiance Soullow. Neffe is already the mother of four children: Brianna, Christare, CiCi, and Jaylen. Rapper Soullow also has children from previous relationships.
We reported to you yesterday that a number of Detroit goons busted into a club – trying to get at rapper Jim Jones. Now we’re getting a little more info on what caused the beef to start. One of my boys in the D told me Jimmy was behind in his payment of “hood taxes.”
What are hood taxes, you ask? Well,
The taxes could be anything from doing a track with a local artist, or doing a free concert for a promoter, or show love to the streets by dropping off a couple of stacks.
And in case you’re wondering what the penalty is for not paying Detroit’s new “hood taxes.
“Just like the IRS, the penalty is severe.”
We spoke to a person close to the filming of the Bravo show the Real Housewives Of Atlanta and they claims that a FIST FIGHT broke out on the set.
Here’s what happen, Sheree was upset that an Atlanta promoter named Tony Shorter was publicizing an event using her name – which she claimed, she never authorized. The confrontation started off civil then –all of a sudden – things went left. The insider explains, “ called Sheree a broke b*tch and Sheree calling him a .”
And that’s where the details get a little fuzzy. According to our snitch, a split second after Sheree said those fateful words – a fist came out of nowhere and allegedly punched Sheree in her arm – HARD! The insider told us, “I can’t say who did what to whom, but Sheree was hurt … I think she’s going to try and sue someone and get some money.”
On Saturday, Tyra Banks’ show America’s Next Top Model held a very POORLY planned open audition in New York City. We’ve received DOZENS of reports on how the lack of security caused a riot to break out – and things almost got DEADLY. But forget the stories, one of our readers actually got footage of the entire incident. Check it out below:
According to our sources, last night rapper Jim Jones was at a Detroit nightclub called Esko, when a group of men dressed in all black walked in and rushed his VIP booth.
The men reportedly pulled out guns and opened fire in the club – allegedly at Jim Jones. While 4 shots were fired and a fight erupted, Jim Jones managed to escape uninjured. Unfortunately two clubgoers were shot.
And it gets worse – one of the men shot was popular Detroit rapper Trick Trick. According to our sources, Trick Trick was with Jim Jones when the attempted assassination occurred – and Trick Trick may have saved Jim Jones’ life.
Both gunshot victims are in stable condition.
Developing…
EDITOR’S UPDATE – Trick Trick called into local Detroit radio station WKQI claiming that he WAS NOT in the club last night when the shooting occurred. Despite Trick Trick’s denials, police officers told the Detroit Free Press that Trick Trick was INDEED at the club and was IN FACT shot.
It’s officially over. Rihanna has officially ENDED THINGS with R&B singer Chris Brown. And the manner in which Rihanna ended things was particularly SCANDALOUS!!!
The insider, explained that Rihanna gave Chris an ultimatum – end all contact with manager Tina Davis, or lose her. The insider explained, “Rihanna will not take him back, especially if there is still any kind of relationship between him and Tina Davis – personal or professional! But he is not prepared to fire her, and lost Rihanna.”
As we reported earlier, Tina and Chris have been rumored to be having a sexual relationship for many years. According to TMZ.com, Tina sent Chris a sexual text message – which sparked the assault incident. Tina has since issued a public statement – claiming that she and Chris were not sexually involved.
And so as of last THURSDAY NIGHT, Rihanna and Chris are officially over. “ left Los Angeles to clear her head … and get him out of her mind.”
But while Rihanna seems to be moving past the incident, Chris is reportedly falling into a very deep depression. A person close to Chris’ camp explains, “Initially he was confident that he’d get past this, but he’s beginning to lose hope … people are worried about him … I’ve never seen him like this.”
MTV correspondent, Egypt, reports on her blog:
I received word from a source who is typically very reliable that R&B singer/writer The Dream, allegedly proposed to Pop singer Christina Milian and she said YES!!!! At some point yesterday The Dream allegedly took Christina to the rooftop of his condo in LA where he popped the question with a diamond ring that’s estimated at nearly $200,000. The ring is said to be designed by he daughter of a very well known wealthy American billionaire.
I am also told they had an intimate dinner celebration later that evening with with close friends and family and Christina was glowing like a schoolgirl. I hear Dream said it was love at first sight and insiders say ‘he is sooo open on Christina’.
UPDATE FROM CHRISTINA:
Good Morning y’all.
Just woke up from finishing some work in the studio late last night to some eager phone calls as to whether or not I am Engaged…. No, I am not. Point blank, period. Pretty funny. I really don’t have a lot to say about it… I think since I announced the title of my new album “Elope” these rumors seem to be looming around lately… It’s an album title and a title track. And to me “Elope” represents taking control of my life and being an adult making my own responsible decisions. Despite anyone’s judgement…. I have not run off and Eloped either, LOL. So….that being said.. Stay focused and to anyone who thinks my life is a Publicity stunt… GROW UP. Life is short, enjoy it and stop picking on what I do. Cause if you don’t know, I am definitely enjoying life!
RADIOKILLA!Xtina Mili-BLONDE!

Iceberg from Queens vs Lewis Dix XXVIII
The Latest G’s To Gents reject calls into the show.
Where the hell they find Case at? I aint heard from dude since faded pictures. Talks about his career, shooting himself in the throat and sings live.
With his third solo album, Deeper Than Rap, slated for an April 21st release, Rick Ross is gracing the cover of XXL magazine’s upcoming May issue.
On Denying Being A Correctional Officer
“Me not answering or addressing that situation has nothing to do with my career. I’ve accomplished enough, and I’ve made enough money for me to be good… Yes, it was me in those pictures. But I’ma tell you this. Me taking that job, I was doing my job. You understand what I mean?”
50 Cent allegedly has video. Video of Rick Ross’ other baby moms, Brooke. And this isn’t like when Fif took Tia to Jumpoff-DisneyLand (aka the Gucci store)…at…all.
A source tells TMZ 50 Cent plans to release a porn tape featuring one of Rick Ross’ baby mamas. We’re told 50 bought the tape and will post it on his own site — and even provide voice-over on it. This is 50! The feud between the two rappers has included animated videos, radio station disses and a video where 50 Cent took another of Ross’ baby mamas shopping for clothes.
Jim Jones is the ultimate confrontation king. Today a video surfaced that shows Jimmy getting into an argument with hotel security . After Jones was harassed in their hotel rooms due to their large entourages, he decided to leave and outside the hotel he got into it with the hotel’s security. “Yeah, we know you a h*mo,” Jones says. “You a f*ggot too, came out here like you were gonna do something. Hyatt security, that’s your badge? You a dweeb…I ain’t giving you sh*t, now just say I robbed you, b*tch. You crazy. And we’re gonna YouTube your ass, we’re gonna make you famous in the morning, d**khead.”
An in-depth look into the “N*ggaz With Attitude” will soon be coming to a theater new year. New Line Cinema is developing a film called “Straight Outta Compton” that will chronicle the rise and fall of N.W.A. Ice Cube and Dr Dre will help produce the film on the group they helped form along with Eazy-E and MC Ren. Fellow producers Tomica Wright (Eazy-E’s widow) and Circle Of Confusion Entertainment are currently searching for a director. In related news, N.W.A. was recently featured on VH1’s “Rock Doc: N.W.A.: The World’s Most Dangerous Group” last fall. The show examined hip-hop’s most gangster rap group, using interviews from former group members Ice Cube, MC Ren, Dr. Dre, DJ Yella plus Eazy-E’s widow Tomica Woods-Wright, Ice-T and director John Singleton. Chris Rock narrated the feature that was written and directed by Mark Ford.
How do you go from alluring actress to “First Lady” then back to doing videos. Apparently, she must miss the so-called glitz and glamour of the music business. I guess this was her only option since she can no longer return back to the Turks and Caicos Islands after her messy divorce with the Honorable Michael Misick.
The woman who caused the fight between Rihanna and Chris Brown was his 40 year old manager Tina Davis!!!
In an explosive turn of events, the website TMZ revealed today that the “hook up” text that Chris received shortly before assaulting Rihanna came from his manager.
And there’s more, the two have had an ongoing SEXUAL relationship since Chris was 16 years old.
Lil Kim did an awesome job on dancing with the stars last night! A few days ago she was interviewed by Clay Cane of BET.com and the interview was getting good until he asked her about her plastic surgery. Here are some excerpts:
Do you feel like you get the respect that you deserve in hip hop?
No, I don’t, but it’s okay because God is going to give me that. I give the word to Him. No, I don’t, it’s cool. I take what I deserve and that’s what I’m doing now. I’m doing what I have to do and I’m doing what’s going to make Kim satisfied.
Do you have any thoughts on Remy Ma now that she is in jail?
No, I don’t even think we need to bring her into this conversation. I wish her the best. When I was locked up she kicked me when I was down, but I won’t do that to her. You know what I mean? Because I’ve been there and I know how it feels to be locked up. To be honest with you, my condolences and my heart goes out to her, but at the end of the day she’s not my friend. I’m just making a point I won’t do what somebody else did to me. When I was locked up she kicked me, but I wouldn’t kick her. I don’t do that because I’m a real person. I won’t do that.
Let me ask you this Kim, this is a big question that we get from everybody and you can decide if you don’t want to answer it or not. There is a perception in the African-American community that Lil’ Kim didn’t like the way she looked as a Black woman so she got plastic surgery to make herself look less Black. What’s your reaction—
**CALL ENDS**
Damn, did she just hang up??? I mean it’s obvious that she wasn’t content with her ethnic features but I would atleast thought she had a response in the bag in case that topic ever came up. Go to Clay Cane.net to find out his reaction to her hanging up on him.
Just eleven days after a Louisiana judge allowed C-Murder to remain on house arrest, the New Orleans rapper has been sent back to jail for alleged violations, according to the Associated Press.
Gretna authorities say that Murder’s electronic device that monitors his whereabouts was out of range early Monday morning (March 9) for about ten minutes, which is an violation of his house arrest terms. His lawyer claims the he was asleep at his grandmother’s house, where he has been serving his time for the last three years.
Booked at the Jefferson Parish Jail, Murder is set to appear in court on April 20th.
The former No Limit rapper is currently awaiting a retrial for the murder of 16-year-old Steve Thomas in January of 2002. Although originally convicted of second-degree murder charges back in 2003, he was granted a new trial when a separate judge said prosecutors withheld criminal background information to Miller’s lawyers on several key witnesses. In March 2006 he was released on $50,000 bond and put on house arrest.
There is a serious rumor that Chris Brown and Rihanna are about to do something crazy. They are – according to the Chicago Sun Times – working on a deal that will take them on a “tour” so that they can talk about abuse. This deal has several components to it. They are going to do a book together to talk about abuse and music, whatever that entails. They are going to do a number of talk shows in which they will discuss their issues (and I assume how they will move on). This deal allegedly involves a $10 million pay out for Rihanna. Now, Rihanna’s lawyer has refuted the claims, but there may be something to this. You never know really.
Rick Ross talks.
And boy does he talk. He addresses the DJ Vlad situation in the interview. Funk Flex talks to him, but its definitely time for that Boogaloo interview so we can get to the real deal. I am positive this will get DJ Vlad more upset that he already is.
But you have to WATCH for yourself.
Here’s what Welford Hart – a woman close to Chris told the NY Post:
“When you take off your shoes and beat someone with high heels, that’s going to hurt. He reacted and tried to get her to stop hitting him, but she kept screaming.

“American Idol” is about to get a double dose of star power – Kanye West and Kelly Clarkson.
The Grammy winners will share the stage as performers during Wednesday’s elimination show.
West, making his first appearance on the top-rated Fox series, will perform his hit song “Heartless” from his latest album “808s & Heartbreak.”
Clarkson, the original “American Idol,” will sing her chart-topper “My Life Would Suck Without You,” from her new album being released Tuesday.
The show – a ratings juggernaut since it debuted in 2002 – has attracted numerous top artists as mentors and performers in recent seasons.
Among them – Mariah Carey, Prince, Gwen Stefani, Dolly Parton and Jennifer Lopez.
Rihanna’s lawyer put out a statement confirming that Rihanna will testify in the Chris Brown assault case if compelled to do so by the court. Here’s what her lawyer, Donals Etra, said:
She is planning to do everything that the law requires her to do. If she is required to testify, she will do so
But the question isn’t WHETHER she’ll testify .. it’s what will she say….
It appears that DeShawn’s replacement on the Atlanta Housewives has already been named – it’s . For those of you who forgot, Kandi was considered the cutest member of the group (not that that’s saying much).
Anyway, here’s how Entertainment Weekly is reporting things:
DeShawn Snow’s replacement on Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Atlanta is Kandi Burruss, a singer-songwriter from the platinum-selling ’90s R&B girl group Xscape (which also included sisters LaTocha and Tamika Scott, as well as Burruss’ best friend Tameka “Tiny” Cottle).
We hear Kandi used to be Jermaine Dupri’s jump off
“Gangster’s Paradise” rapper Coolio was reportedly busted earlier today (March 6) at an airport with crack cocaine, according to TMZ.
The Compton-bred rapper, who has been taken in by LAX authorities, was apparently arrested after drugs were found on his person during a routine security check. It is also believed that he got into an altercation with the screener that discovered the controlled substance.
Coolio was on his way to catch a flight for a concert appearance in Tulsa, OK where he shared the bill with fellow old school emcees Tone Loc and Shock G of Digital Underground.
Since scoring fame as a recording artist in the 90s, the Grammy-award winning rapper has gone on to appear on several reality televison shows including Fox’s “Celebrity Boot Camp,” in which he won, and his own show “Coolio’s Rules” on the Oxygen network, as well as his own online cooking series “Cooking With Coolio.” – Elan Mancini
For the zillionth time, we know Kim is on “Dancing With The Stars,” but why? If you didn’t watch the vid, here is the text.
“When I was in prison me and my girls used to watch it. My girlfriends would say, ‘Kim, you need to be on that show,’ it used to be the number one show in prison…I’m totally not what you guys think I am. That’s why I’m doing ‘Dancing With the Stars’ because you will see who the real Kim is…I’ve never had dance experience, aside from doing videos and stuff like that…It’s different, it’s very different. It’s not easy.”
I wonder if she still stays in touch with her “girlfriends.”
Lil Wayne was scheduled to appear and perform on Snoop’s “Dogg After Dark” Show on MTV, I am hearing. The crazy thing is he never made it. From what I understand, the N.O. rapper canceled twice – two days in the row. Nobody quite knows why, but there are some sentiments that perhaps Weezy’s camp had some concerns with security and safety.
The L.A. County District Attorney has just charged Chris Brown with felony assault and making a criminal threat, also a felony.
He could face up to four years in jail.
Brown will be arraigned today at 3:30 PM in downtown LA.
RIHANNA REVEALS SHOCKING DETAILS OF FIGHT:
# Rihanna read a three-page text message on Brown’s phone from a woman. An argument ensued and Brown allegedly tried forcing Rihanna out of the car but couldn’t because she was wearing her seat belt.
# Brown then allegedly shoved Rihanna’s head against the passenger window. When Rihanna turned to face him, Brown punched her, then continued punching her while driving
# Blood spattered all over Rihanna’s clothing and in the interior of the car. Her mouth was filled with blood.
# Brown allegedly told Rihanna, “I’m going to beat the **** out of you when we get home. You wait and see.”
# Rihanna called her assistant and left a message saying, “I am on my way home. Make sure the cops are there when I get there.”
# Brown then replied, “You just did the stupidest thing ever. I’m going to kill you.”
# According to the report, Brown continued to punch Rihanna, bit her on her ear, her fingers and put her in a headlock — she almost lost consciousness.
RUMOR: OF MARRIAGE:
To the shock of many, Rihanna reunited with Chris Brown over the weekend — but they did more than that! the couple had a tearful face-to-face meeting at Diddy’s $14.5 million Miami mansion, during which an emotional Chris apologized, begged for forgiveness and proposed to her on the spot.
“All she’s ever wanted was to be with him forever,” a source tells Star. “Rihanna is looking for the husband-and-two-kids deal before she turns 25. She believes in fairy tales, and she wants to live hers with Chris. She was totally up front and confessed to him, ‘I can’t live without you.’”
The pair wasted no time making Rihanna’s fairy tale come true. They even called a minister to the mansion on exclusive Star Island!
COURT DATE TODAY:
Chris Brown is out and about, but it’s the behind-the-scenes action that may determine where he goes in the future.
Sources close to the negotiations tell E! News that the R&B star’s attorneys are in talks with the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office about a possible plea deal that would see Brown wind up with probation—rather than jail time—for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend Rihanna on Feb. 8.
Rapper T.I. will start his prison sentence on 27 March (09). The hitmaker will go before an Atlanta, Georgia judge on that date and he’ll officially be sentenced to jail. T.I., real name Clifford Harris, will spend a year and one day behind bars after pleading guilty to possession of unregistered weapons.
Beyonce was at a hotel, left a pair of her undies and now these idiots have them.
The nasty part about it is that they claim to have had them for months. EWWW. Next, I bet there is some sick person out there, who does not care and will spend money to purchase her underwear. The internet just reached an all new low.
There appears to be a girlfight brewing. CHECK OUT Keri Hilson’s latest remix to her track Turning On Me. In it, Keri reportedly calls out Ciara and Beyonce.
Here are the lyrics – let us know what you think:
I shot the sheriff, but wait till i shoot these b*thces……down

NICE!!!
These Rihanna bikini pictures are actually from last Friday, but we couldn’t put them up until today without paying an arm and a leg, and what with the economy in crapper, it’s best to save a buck where you can. Anyway, we’ve got them for you now, in all their glorious hi-res-ness, and I’ve got to say, Rihanna doesn’t look like someone who recently had the shit beaten out of her by her lunatic boyfriend. I guess that means she looks good.
Usher and Johnta are in the studio looking at Christina’s new blond hair and Johnta exclaims “This is what happens when people fall out of the game.” Johnta then named it the “That Ain’t It” moment of the year before he says “Looking like a damn fool!!”. They also talk about the new “Ike and Tina” of our generation.
Lil Wayne’s Rock album may not make it to the light of day. The songs that have been released have not gotten a lot of commercial traction. Even though Wayne is still a popular artist, some quietly seem to feel its a bad idea. He was to release it in April, but now…summer? What next? Never? Time will tell, but that’s the word.

I’m just totally confused as to why J Hud mentioned Beyonce’s name (see minute marker 2:45 – 3:10.. She just added a picture of Beyonce’ in her Piano Room and plans on placing her Grammy in front of it (which is located next to her Oscar) … really? Beside the fact of it being completely random, she almost choked when she said Bey’s name. Was she sending a message to Bey’s wanna be iconic status ass? God I hope so!
Loyal reader, Tabatha
Rihanna has agreed to “speak to the on Chris’ behalf.”
“Rihanna doesn’t want this to go any further, she will be speaking to and – if need be – admit to her part in the .”
And it gets better. Chris Brown and prosecutors are EXTREMELY close to a plea deal. According to that insider, Chris would plead “no contest” to misdemeanor domestic battery and receive NO JAIL TIME.
A insider explained, “I expect the deal to be announced this week – before Chris’ court date” The tipster continued, “This deal is a present to the prosecutors … The case is over – if Chris took it to trial – he’d be acquitted. are going to accept any deal they can get.”
