Last year, Jadakiss signed on as a spokesman for Coogi. Now, he’s endorsing FB (formerly known as Fubu). That’s right, Fubu owns the license to the label that Biggie made famous. In this clip, Kiss talks about the relaunch of the brand. F is for the fatty’s wearing my shhhh.

Woooha

It’s been a minute since we’ve heard anything new from Missy, well, besides this rough draft. While Misdemeanor takes production credit on Monica’s new album, the songstress tells Rap-Up, Missy is working hard on her next LP. “She’s got some crazy music on there, some stuff I was trying to steal for my record.” However, she still managed to get away with a few goods. “I got a couple of things that she let me take, but she’s working really hard on [her album].” Remember Monica never lies. Right, Ms. Cole?

Update: Speaking of which, don’t believe the hype.

Despite Diddy’s recent work with Rick Ross, Puff tells that MTV that the tandem don’t have ulterior motives. “We’ve just been doing little things together,” Diddy explained. “If it organically grows into something, that’s cool. But it’s not no master plan for something else bigger than that.” Thank, God.

We’ve got an image! T.I. made his first post-prison public appearance on Monday at The Atlanta Opera for Tiny’s Alzheimer’s research fundraiser. He was quoted as saying, “I am very well, very happy to be seen.”. Manager Jason Geter told MTV that T.I’s next album should be dropping by the end of the summer with production from DJ Toomp, Danja and The Runners. As far as features, The-Dream and Trey Songz already locked in.

Drake isn’t the only rapper in business with Coca-Cola these days. Recently, the soft drink maker commissioned K’nann to remix his song “Wavin’ Flag” for their Fifa World Cup ad campaign. The track appears on last year’s Troubadour. In a statement, K’naan said, “It’s so exciting to be part of this epic journey and see Africa’s excitement for the FIFA World Cup first hand”.

Woooha

Not again. TMZ says that Yung Berg and eight others were pistol whipped and robbed at a house party in Los Angeles over the weekend. Reportedly the bandits made off with $10,000 in cash and jewels.

UPDATE: Berger denies the allegations

Dre put us hip to this clip of L.A. Reid and his artiste Bagger Vance Shyne in Belize. On Monday, the Def Jam Chairman flew to the nation and signed Po to the label.
