The Game Got Big Dreams
The Game's street single to his 3rd, and FINAL album, LAX, has been leaked, and MF 3.0 has got it. Now yall know I don't like The Game, and I think he's talking out of his @$$ when he say he's retiring after this album, because he's done dropped 3 "classic" albums, and has nothing left to say, but this track Big Dreams, produced by Cool & Dre, is pretty solid. The Game knows what he can do basically, and he doin' it. Peep it here, and let us know what you think.

The Game - Big Dreams

Mariah Carey's Annual Hip-Hop Remix w/ Def Jam Relevants

Mariah Carey, now I love this woman, but her Touch My Body single, written by The Dream, I really wasn't feeling. Especially after the last time she came out her first single was We Belong Together, and those two just don't compare. Well as MC always does with at least one of her single's from her albums, she hooks up with who's poppin' in the Hip-Hop world and puts down a remix which most of the time is better than the original. Well they did it again, this time it is better and she didn't have to look to far for relevancy seein' as Def Jam is having a hell of time with their artists right now. Yeah Ricky Ross debuted at #1 last week, sucka...although I do believe Def Jam had a hand in that. Anyway, MC is stickin' to her formula in order to remain top diva, and so far it's working, but let me tell ya, MC does have Janet beat out, but Whitney Houston done got rid of Bobby so she ain't playing when she come back around, watch.

Outkast and The Chef Cookin' Up So More Heat

Yet another hot track from the ATLiens, this time with a Wu-Tang alumni. Just peep the track. Hip Hop is still alive like I said before.

Outkast ft. Raekwon - Royal Flush

Joe Budden Stages His ComebackJoe Budden, a man who use to be one of my favorite rappers, is finally set to return to mainsteam after a 5 year hiatus. Joe Budden has been working the mixtape circuits for years now, and has developed quite a strong, loyal following. However that loyal following, is just really small. Well Joe Budden has just recently release his first single of his new album, Padded Room, which is set to drop in June. When asked to explain his first single Joe says that, "The song is very Jersey, very dance, but not 2 be confused with anything gimmicky, or bubblegum. Quite the opposite, no matter what type of record I do, we will not dumb down lyrically. 'T & G' is the beginning of my gradual progression back 2 the mainstream world. It's 1 bullet from the clip, but not by any means the strongest." I don't know about yall...but if I was a artist, and I'm trying to move some units and/or become relevant again, I'm hitting yall with the hardest thing I got. Anyway, peep the track and see if Joe B is makin' the right moves or not.

R&N - 11/29/07

Hey folks,

Got Part 2 News of Yesterday... Not posting it all now, but just a lil' bit. I'll have a larger post by the end of the day...

Usher & Tomeka - Named Baby the 5th!


Just to finish off the Usher topic for the time being, it has been announced that they've named the baby Usher Raymond V... Yes, Usher was number 4. That's gonna be interesting when the Usher V gets older. Think he'll be singing like his daddy?

Common - Dating Serena Williams?!


I'm not much of a gossiper on relationships, but Common hasn't gotten much press as of late... I hear the honeys are real fans of his, so I'm just gonna throw this out here... They might be dating... I've seen Jay-Z & Beyonce try to pull this same kind of look off coming out of a restaurant... They try to go their separate ways so that it looks different than what it is...

RZA addresses Raekwon's Issues

Like Dilly was talking about earlier about Wu-Tang and how Raekwon didn't like how the album was coming, here is what RZA had to say about that... I think everybody in Wu-Tang is crazy, but that's just me...



Young Buck - Dude Got Robbed?!


There was a WILD rumor out there that Young Buck from G-Unit got robbed... Rumor was that there was an argument, and Young Buck lost his watch, chain and somebody took his Bentley!... That's CRAZY...

This is what Buck said to AHH:

“Ain’t nobody robbed me for a thing... There was an altercation between me and a dude here in Tennessee and during that altercation, I lost a watch which came off my arm. But as far as someone taking my Bentley, my Bentley is sitting pretty without a scratch on it, right here in my driveway and my jewelry is right here too. I guess this is what people wanted to happen. I didn’t get robbed for anything.”

Buck also said that the dispute wasn't over money. “I don’t owe anyone money and the dude who I had the altercation with knows me and I know him and we already had our words since the altercation happened, so whoever is posting this or commenting on this recklessly is trying to take Buck down but you can’t take Buck down.”

I heard that a similar incident happened when he tried to sign a homie of his to G-Unit... homie got his chain snatched, and 50 said "fahgeddaboutit", lol. Guess that's not what happened with Buck.
