    "A Bronx clothing designer says superstar Jay-Z and his former Roc-A-Fella record label partners owe him $7 million in unpaid royalties for designing the label logo, one of the best known symbols in rap music.
    In a copyright infringement suit filed in Manhattan Federal Court on Thursday, Dwayne Walker says he created the design.
    “The logo has become universally recognized as an iconic symbol of Jay-Z, one of the most successful recording artists in the history of popular music,” the suit says."

    Finally!! It's Blue Ivy!! Look at those cheeks- she is soooo pretty and looks JUST like her father Jay-z! While Beyonce and Blue were shopping at Bergdorf Goodman in New York City, a fan was able to snag this shot. You know the stans go hard, because Momma Bey protects baby Blue from the razzi mafia as displayed below. Are you guys digging Bey's Patra braids? I think they look cute- I mean she rocked braids hard back in the day. Not Brandy HARD, but honey blonde braids were worn by King B!!
    Head inside to check out recent pics of P.diddy three Daughters, 5 year old twins D'Lila Star & Jessie James and Chance Combs. It appears Kim Porter has put her pride to the side and is allowing the twins to be around their sister. To bring you up to speed- Kim, refused to allow her daughters to interact with Chance because she was born only five months before the twins. SMDH. Anyway glad to see progress.

Former Roc-A-Fella Records Exec, Kareem “Biggs” Burke Sentenced To 5 Years In Prison

    According to Mtv.com One of the co-founders of Roc-A-Fella Records, Kareem "Biggs" Burke, was sentenced to five years in prison on Monday after pleading guilty to conspiring to distribute more than 100 kilos of marijuana.
    The New York Daily News reports, Biggs was snared as part of a dragnet dubbed "Operation Green Venom," in which 50 people were arrested for conspiracy to distribute marijuana in a coordinated sting that included New York's Department of Investigation, the Drug Enforcement Administration, the New York Police Department, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in New York and the Special Narcotics Prosecutor's office.
    Burke was caught via a wiretap discussing activities at a grow house with the ring's leader. Prosecutors alleged that the drugs were being grown using hydroponic systems in Florida and California and later smuggled into New York and sold on the street.
    During his sentencing, Biggs promised Manhattan Federal Court Judge Loretta Swain that she would never see him in court again. She replied that it was nothing personal, but, "I'm going to keep you to that promise." Burke, 38, was arrested in the case in October 2010 as part of a sting operation focusing on a marijuana trafficking operation that distributed weed to customers in New York, New Jersey and Florida. Biggs faced a mandatory minimum sentence of five to 40 years on the charges and was forced to forfeit $15,000 in cash, his $600,000 New Jersey house and a BMW as part of his plea deal.

06/04/2012 Can we say awwwwwww on 3? 1...2....3..AWWWWWWWWWWW!!! Every time I see fathers and their daughters, Nas’s Daughters track starts to play in my head. Jay-Z was spotted by the razzi mafia while arriving at the Meurice Hotel with his family in Paris. He hugged his little Blue Ivy tightly to his chest, to prevent the razzi mafia from capturing any pics of his baby girl. I love the second shot featuring Beyonce in the front with Jay-z and Blue peaking from the back. Even though we only get to see Blue's tiny feet and curly hair, these moments give me life. more

    According to Billboard.com Jay-Z held a press conference (May 14) on the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art to announce a new two-day music festival, Budweiser Made in America, to be held Labor Day weekend (Sept. 1-2) at Philadelphia's Ben Franklin Parkway in Fairmount Park. Jay-Z-who is headlining the event was joined by Philly Mayor Michael and a few other noteworthy people Also on hand was Philly native and former Roc-a-Fella Records artist Freeway.
    "I was there because I wanted to see my friend, and I wanted people to know that me and Jay are still cool," says the rapper, born Leslie Edward Pridgen, who stood silently onstage during the announcement. "If you follow me or you're familiar with what I do on the Internet, whenever anyone comes to town in Philly that I'm OK with, I usually come and support them."
    Freeway's attendance at the press conference didn't come without controversy. The rapper wasn't included in a group photo op at the event, prompting media to assume that his presence wasn't actually welcome and sparking a flurry of chatter online that found Freeway the butt of many jokes. Still, he remains unfazed.
    "All press is good press, and I've definitely been doing a lot of press," says Freeway, who took to Twitter (@PhillyFreezer) during the press conference to post a picture of himself with Jay-Z at the event with the note: "Stop that shit, Jay my N***a!!" "I'm happy for the press, because the truth is, Jay knew that I was there and it was all love. There's nothing negative about that. People just turned it into what they wanted to. I actually thought it was kind of funny."
