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.
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.
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.
Dilly here for another edition of HUMP DAY EXCLUSIVES. Yes, we are almost to the weekend, but right now we're already here to the Hot Ish.
Dipset Is OVER!And we all saw it coming. 40 Cal and Jay Bezel done released a track titled "Dipset Is Ova" stating just that, and venting on the frustration with Jim Jones and Camron's beefing. In a recent interview they both said that their failure to not speak or come to terms with eachother has resulted in the whole Dipset failure. They said nobody's making money but Cam and Jones, and it ain't right. The true star of the group in my opinion, Juelz Santana also weighed in and put it like this. "When I came in the game, at 18, and was being treated in a certain way, it was cool, I had no money, I was new, and Cam was the one that got me out. Now, after some success, after some weight being gained, and I'm still being treated the same way? That just don't work." I understand what the man saying, they need to give Juelz his shine, and quit tripping. Either way, Juelz the only one signed to a major labor, as his new album is post to drop with Def Jam this year and his ex-comrade Jim Jones has rumors flying about him being dropped from Warner Bros without even releasing any material. Ouch. Hopefully all ends up well with the members, who knows, but I do know this, at the end of the track there's a SKULL GANG shoutout, so it look Julez's Skull Gang just got some new members.
R. Kelly Disses Ne-Yo On New TrackNow yall knew R. Kelly was hood right? No? Well I'm tellin' u he is. The boy don't play, just with little girls. No, I'm playin' but he really Kels talk greasy like the next man at that's exactly what he doin' on this track "I'm A Beast." Some highlights of Kel's "rap": Never been a snitch boy/ Never been a b*tch boy/ Why I gotta hate on you?/ Look at me I'm rich boy/ You need a steering wheel, the way you ridin my dick boy/ Say you're a go-getter/ Go get your own sh*t boy..." Now although he don't say who exactly he talkin' bout, it ain't hard to tell. Peep it here.
Aiight, so here's the run down. Apparently, last Friday Fat Joe, Papoose, Yo Gotti, Gucci Mane, and Cassidy was doing a show for a radio station out in North Carolina. Before the show, while at the hotel, Joey Crack wanted to find Papoose and question him 'bout sum disparaging remarks made towards him while on air back in NY with 50 Cent. Fat Joe roamed the hotel 'til he found Papoose in Cassidy's room and asked dude, "Do we got a problem?" Papoose, MANing up says, "If you want a problem, we can handle that." Apparently that's not the answer Joe was looking for an so the scuffle ensued. Now both parties have different accounts of how it went down, with Papoose coming out first sayin' Fat Joe was 8 men deep, and Papoose was only with 3 cats and wanted to fight one on one but Fat Joe refused. He then says that during the fight he got his hits in, and quote "put work on his chin." He also said on the radio station that he handled his business. Two days later Joey Crack responds with a video, after fake pics were floating around with him with a bruised face, sayin' Papoose is lying and that it was 4 on 4, and that his DJ went to the hospital, his bodyguard was bruised up and Papoose was bruised up. He also told media outlets that Fat Joe sat him down AFTER the beat down, Capo style, and told him why he got his @$$ beat and that they squashed it. Which Papoose does admit to. LOL, man. Now if you ask me...Papoose ain't hanging with Fat Joe, I mean look at the size of the kid. And the detail in which Joe spoke about the fight in leads me to believe that he telling the truth. He also said Cassidy and Gotti was there, and they'll let us know how it went down. Only time will tell.
Video: The Games Heads To PrisonMr. Lame, I mean Game turned himself into prison yesterday to begin serving his 60 day sentence for his weapons possession charge. Not gonna speak on this too much as yall know I think The Game is trying to publicize jail life and use this, for some odd reason, as promo for his new album. Dude didn't even want to fight the charge, don't make no sense. Peep the video here.
