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.
You Played Yourself

Nearly two months after the release of Reek’s The Gift mixtape, he gives MTV a breakdown of a few notable tracks. If you haven’t downloaded it yet, what are you waiting for?
“Keep Goin’ Reek”: “I like it this way, it makes you stick out,” Reek said about his Big Apple sound. “It makes you stand out. When everyone is just coming around with bounce music and when you come with real soulful sounding [production], spitting some real lyrics and taking it back to the original art with the music, it makes you stand out.
“It makes you stand out from the guys that are trying to be a part of the fads. When I come through, everything I do, you’re gonna be able to tell I’m passionate about the music.”
“Promise Land”: “There’s people that are just focused on making the single and getting rich,” Reek explained. “Everybody lost the nature of the art, which is just making good music that the people are gonna like. It’s not about making one single, that’s why the majority of those [acts] are here today and then gone. They might have had that one record, had a nice tour run, but then they’re gone.”

Nope. Only the players, Yeezy. Only. The. Players. Here’s photos from Wiz Khalfia’s FADER cover shoot. Photographer Ross Mantle captures an intimate moment between Wiz and main squeeze, Amber Rose. Love knows no bounds. Another flick after the jump.
Relatively new FADER photographer Ross Mantle shot Wiz in the center of a music video shoot and documented some of the first days of his relationship with Amber Rose. Mantle said, “He’s pretty down to earth. I don’t know if he’s going to get a head about him later on, but he has a bit of a young ego. I think to be in the position he’s in you have to have something like that to begin with.” More about Mantle’s experience, the rest of his photos and our cover feature on Wiz are featured alongside a feature on James Blake and interviews with Lex Luger, Niki and the Dove and Porcelain Raft in FADER #72. Available on traditional and digital newsstands, March 8th!
