Rihanna Shoots Video For “You Da One” [Photos]
11/30/2011 • 
This is one of my favorite songs from Rihanna’s latest album “Talk that talk”. Here are a few images from the set that shows her sporting a blonde wig, ripped denim shorts, white see-thru t-shirt, a top hot and cain. Word on the street is that the video shoot was extremely raunchy. So I can’t wait to see the final cut. On “Talk that Talk” she is talking lots of sex and I personally only can get jiggy with like ummmmm 4 tracks! With such a bold title I expected so much more. According to billboard Hot 200, her album will debut at #3 moving only 197,000 copies. Just give us a video for "Watch n Learn" then I suggest she takes a break!! Head inside to see full fit and listen to the song if unfamiliar. more

[Clap For Him] Drake Debuts at #1 on Billboard
11/23/2011 • 
Toronto-born Drake’s Take Care drops in at no. 1 with sales of 631,000 according to billboard.com. He pushed his album back and still did major numbers!! The LP which includes appearances from Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Rick Ross, The Weeknd and Kendrick Lamar, is emo (emotional) rap at it’s finest. At times numbers lie, however this time around the number sales and the product are on the same page!! It’s the second highest opening week for a rap album this year, only behind his mentor and boss Lil’ Wayne. For those keeping track, his debut album Thank Me Later sold 447k opening week back in 2010. What a way to step it up!!! Congrats to Drake!! SCORPIO LOVE BABY!! MUAHHHH!!. more

T.I. Gears Up For 8th Studio Album “Trouble Man”
11/21/2011 • 
Being that the "T" in T.I can easily stand for trouble due to the recent events in his life, that isn't the case this time around. However the King of the South has decided to title his eighth studio album "Trouble Man". I can dig it. Trouble Man, the follow-up to 2010’s No Mercy, was partly inspired by Marvin Gaye’s 1972 song of the same name, he revealed to Billboard.com. In a previous interview with Rolling Stone, Tip said he was debating between two titles, Trouble and Kill the King. Click here to read full story.

[Video] Big Sean Responds To Ludacris “Bada Boom” Diss
11/18/2011 • A day after Ludacris dropped "Badda Boom" (Which takes shots at him and Drake) Big Sean stops by KUBE 93 Seattle and talks to DJ Supasam and Eddie Francis about how he feels about it. I personally think Luda needs to have several seats being that he has a totally different flow from these dudes. Luda seems to be feeling a way about not having the shine on him anymore and like most “not currently poppin” rappers he resorts to diss records!! PUHHHH--LEASSSSEEEE don't go that route Chris, just team up and make good music with the new guys!! Peep the video above. more

11/17/2011 • 
You must be careful not to speak to soon!!! Before his seizures last month Rick Ross did a few radio interviews and promised his album “God Forgives I Don’t” wouldn’t be pushed back! The album was set to be released December 13th, but now, things have changed. According to Island Def Jam Senior VP of Marketing, Chris Atlas:
“I think we’re all aware of his recent health issue, and based on some of the minor setbacks with that, we weren’t able to confirm certain opportunities, because he physically wasn’t able to deal with certain things at the time,” says Atlas. “We want this to be his biggest album — we know it’s going to be his biggest album — so we did not want to pressure him into releasing an album based on the sake of a date." more
