I'm down for good music for a good cause but this ain't the case. The homie Sha from MTV hit me with a question yesterday I dreaded goin' on the record about: How do I feel about hip-hop artists being included in the "We Are The World" remake? Geez, I guess we've come long way since 1985. I don't think you could do it any other way than include our culture which is the pulse of pop culture. But instead of feeling any type of validation, I feel disgust. Seriously, a complete remake of the original song? Celine Dion gettin' her Cyndi Lauper on? Lil Wayne as Bob Dylan? Fuck outta here. Didn't I see Will.I.Am in the flicks? They could gave that nigga an hour plus a pen and a pad and I'm sure he'd come up with something cheesy for no small fee but for free. I'm truly scared to hear what the final product is gonna sound like. Are we really gonna hear the soothing vocals of Nipsey Hussle in the final mix? Highly doubt it. Damn, it's the thought that counts but this just doesn't feel right. Shame on a couple of legendary nuhs named Lionel Richie and Quincy Jones. MJ is turning over in his oxygen tank. 
You know you done fucked up, don't you? You know it, don't you? You know you done fucked up.Update: Cam'Ron Will Do Jim Jones Numbers?

According to Hits Daily Double, early reports say it’s gonna be a close race to see if Killa can top his former partner Jim Jones’ last album in first week sales. Pray IV Reign sold 42, 820 units.
CHART FAILURE: If you’re looking for sales relief, don’t expect any this week. The two top debuts appear to be a pair of Asylum rappers in Cam’ron (40-45k) and Paul Wall (15-20k) (5/13p)
Poor Paul Wall.
UPDATE: Asylum adamantly denies this report and promises XXLmag.com that Cam will hit numero uno.
Hey I did my part. It’s on you, hip-hop nation.
are you dumb, nigga on a indie, that good numbers, and shit was street album, who heard any of the songs on radio or on bet..come on
NO MATTER WHAT, KILLA >> JIMMY
UPDATE: Asylum adamantly denies this report and promises XXLmag.com that Cam will hit numero uno.
That’s typical Asylum right there. Bank their label’s credibility on a single artist who has underperformed since he signed with them. Who the hell does a PR campaign over soundscan estimates?
