Big things went down last night in the Lone Star State for Bun B and Rick Ross’ show at The Palladium in Dallas. After the Trill O.G. kicked things off, Rozay capped off the evening by not only bringing out hometown girl Erykah Badu, but his new pal Slim Thugga. It’s a Kodak moment thanks to EA.

Rick Ross giveth, Jigga taketh away. As you can see, Mr. Stanley Burrell is not feelin’ Hov’s 30 Mil crack on “So Appalled“. What you gonna do now Hammer? Ha! This shit is… fuckin’ ridiculous. Lyrics below in case you’re lost.

“…And Hammer went broke so you know I’m more focused. I lost 30 mil so I spent another 30. Cause unlike Hammer 30 million can’t hurt me.”

UPDATE: Please stop Stan. SMH.

Looks like them Bugattiboyz got another one. No really, that’s the title of the next track and it’s dropping in seven days. Next Friday is going to be too much.

When Yayo wasn’t talkin beef during his RapFix Live with MTV yesterday, he named his current hottest MCs, one being fellow Queens artist Nicki Minaj. Tony recalls a near collaboration with Nicki and pushing Sha Money for a female artist on the Unit.

“She was out there and she was messing with this guy named Fendi. I was trying to do a record with her, but Fendi was like, ‘For what? Why you wanna do something with her?’ Then I left it alone. This was a long, long time ago when I was seeing her on the ‘Come Up’ DVDs, ’cause that’s how she started.

“You know what’s crazy? Like, three years ago, I said to [music executive and G-Unit producer] Sha Money [XL] … ‘You need a hot female artist, rapper. I’m telling you, that lane is open. I’m telling you, Sha, that female lane, that rapper lane is wide open.’ What she did was capture it at the right time, ’cause nobody’s out. There’s no Lil’ Kim out, there’s no Foxy … she just conquered that lane at the right time with the right people.”

Y’all didn’t forget it was Blue Friday as well did y’all? Well Southside is in this muthafucka and here’s Blue Hefner’s new joint. H.F.M. 2 coming November 23. Reach out and touch, play.
