Man, miss me with the fake Jay and B quotes already. Headlines. Some of you sites will do anything for attention and traffic. You really believed B would speak to Star magazine? Tuck your tabloid in. And why would Hov need to write a letter to his daughter? Bitch please. He wrote a song! It's called "Glory" and it's pretty fuckin' revealing. He went on the record (double entendre) but you still don't get it. You may hear baby Blue's first cries but no you don't know her height, weight or what she looks like. And no you ain't gettin' a flick, fool. Can new parents get some privacy? Even if they are celebrities. Sheesh! Who raised you animals? Party at the 40/40. Paps outside. Rushin' the velvet rope. Don't trip over your integrity.
Put us here if you like. The RR store stays open 24/7. SOPA? Yeah we Showcase Our Product Always. And we're gonna continue straight ahead til somebody up there turns out the lights. Start from scratch? I'm not afraid.
Willie and producer Lee Bannon’s collaborative EP, Never A Dull Moment is dropping next Tuesday. But before you get left in smoke, here’s another leak from the project.
Not a DJ? Don’t fret. You can still check out Da Snowman. Better late than never.
Update: Full call recorded.
After his much-heralded return on OB4CL 2, Shallah doesn’t show any signs of slowing down. In a conversation with VIBE, the Chef reveals some of the guest appearances on his September release, Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang.
“Method Man, Ghostface, Inspectah Deck, and GZA all appear on the album. At the same time I got some other guys involved like [The Roots’] Black Thought—I love his talent. I think that when it comes to him delivering what level I wanted to go he was the perfect man. I also have Raheem DeVaughn who sounds like Curtis Mayfield over a Shaolin track. “RZA doesn’t have to be on every album.I wanted to give some other producers a chance. It’s not about beef. We can stand on our own.”
Now that was fast. Here’s the other half of XXL‘s 13th Anniversary Issue. Alright? Now you got everything. Ha.
Update: With a plug to Rap Radar, Jeezy speaks on cover. Wait, did he think Shawty Redd was supposed to be included on the front?
Rick Ross usually comes off impassive, so it’s funny watching him out of character. Here’s footage of The Boss on the edge of his seat as LeBron James announces his move to the Miami Heat. Apparently, Rozay’s also the reason Chris Bosh signed with the team as well. False call.
Update: LoLifeIsrael shoots the GIF.
Before Drizzy’s solo shoot in the ATL, it looks like Drake and Weezy brought out the green screen for the next visual off Thank Me Later. Two more snaps after the cut.
Kendrick plans to drop his album OD sometime this year. And if the project sounds anything like this, we’re in for a treat. Tae Beast on the beat. Mellow out and tap your feet.
Lord have mercy, Jesus Christ. Despite the string of underwhelming tunes, Shyne covers one half of XXL‘s September issue. The other features Young Jeezy. In an excerpt given to MTV, Po speaks on shootin’ the club up a decade ago.
“In my life, when I make decisions to roll, I roll. And I don’t give a fuck what the consequences are. If I’ma defend myself, I’ma defend myself. If somebody tryna kill or hurt one of my partnas or my comrades, that’s with me, there is no, ‘Yo,’ or, ‘Damn, well, if I pull this shit out, this is what’s gonna happen.’ No! I don’t wanna die. I don’t wanna be laid up in no fucking hospital with a tube runnin’ through me, hurtin’ and sufferin’. Pain is real. So you know what? I’m not doin’ that. You gon’ do that, motherfucker. You gon’ roll and say hi to Satan, not me. And that’s that. Your survival instincts tell you to protect and preserve, and you deal with whatever later.”
Sidebar: Now With Footage
Even though Drake didn’t get Andre 3000 on his debut, he’s still his biggest fan. In fact, he tells PAPER about the shrine he has in his crib dedicated to the rapper.
On how he honors his mentor, Andre 3000 from Outkast:
I have a shrine in my apartment dedicated to Andre. I took a door off a barn and had an artist take the lyrics from his verses [and put them] on this barn door. As soon as you walk into my apartment that’s the first thing you see.
Previously: Drake PAPER Cover Story
Although Rick Ross’ Teflon Don hits stores tomorrow, we’ve had an advance copy for a couple of days now. After examining the album art, I noticed that the rapper MC Hammer (K. Burrell) was credited on the self titled track. Even though he didn’t write on the record, he earns royalties for the interpolation of “Too Legit Too Quit”. You know, the part when Ross says, “Started selling dough, I’m too legit to quit ?” That’s a check. Fuck you, pay me.
