Lil’ Kim Sets PayPal Record ?

Tuesday, February 15 2011 9:12 PM EST | Posted by: B.Dot | Posted in: Blog, Gossip

By Lil’ Kim’s own accord, her old new mixtape Black Friday has made her the top seller in PayPal history. Instead of giving the tape away for free, she’s sellling it for $10 a pop. Hard to believe in one day, Kimmy moved 113,000 mixtapes. Six years ago, it took a week for her last album, The Naked Truth to sell 109,000 copies.

But don’t get it twisted, the Double R can’t knock the hustle. In fact,  YN put his money where his mouth is earlier today. It wasn’t until after his purchase however, he discovered the tape was being shipped via mail. What the bloodclot?! So much for a rapid refund.

Cory Gunz’s reality show, Son Of A Gun is set to premiere this April. But it seems things may have already backfired. According to TMZ, MTV and executive producer Nick Cannon were served with a cease and desist from Johnny Fratto, son of mafia boss Louis Fratto. Fratto claims he has a series titled Son Of A Gun in the works and that the MTV trailer used some of his themes. Now that ain’t gangsta.

Maybach Music Group Bidding War?

Thursday, February 03 2011 2:03 PM EST | Posted by: YN | Posted in: Blog, Gossip

Apparently, all the powermove business talk Rozay teased me with in Miami rings true. Besides the impending signings of Wale (I heard the deal went through yesterday, but now I can’t get anyone to confirm) and Meek Mill to his imprint, he’s being courted by the music industry’s bosses for MMG. Inside sources have told me the players include: Jay-Z’s Roc Nation/Sony; Birdman’s CMB; Lyor Cohen and the good folks at Warner; and Diddy and Iovine at Interscope. Wait, no Def Jam? The tone arm’s gonna let their heavyweight plant is flag somewhere else without a fight? Hmm. I’d advise against that Antonio. Ha!

Question: Where’d y’all think Rozay and his crew should take their talents to?
