Who says Curtis ain’t got love for you Internet geeks. But this would have been way more entertaining if Fif had did the actual interview. Props: You Heard That New

Raekwon’s Release Date Adventures

“I’m still ill then and I’m still ill now. Don’t make me take my belt off in here. A lot of y’all young niggas look old already so keep you’re cool and learn from a nigga who knows how to do this.” Better late than never. Here’s how The Chef spent his Sept. 8th. Hot 97 trips, Jamaica, Queens in-store, JMJ studio visit, and crazy party at Santos. Fourteen years for one sequel. What a crazy ride. Props: Harry

Diddy & Jimmy Sittin’ In A Tree

First, the new VIBE first teased us and now Puff has confirmed to Billboard (MC on her grind) he’s joinin’ the machine a.k.a. Mr. Iovine’s Interscope Records. “Now that the term of the Warner deal has ended, I have elected to accept an opportunity to move my recording career and future label venture to another company,” Diddy said in a statement. Do I see Will.i.am remixes in Last Train To Paris‘ future? Ha! Still, this leaves me with more questions […]

New Music: Fat Joe “Blackout”

“Hard to keep it humble when everybody’s beneath you.” Ignoring that “Porn Star” bore was no accident. This Swizz selection is more up our alley. Is it off J.O.S.E. 2 or just to hawk some kicks? Probably both. What’s a Rob Cash? Nevermind. Link Back, Link Back: 2 Dope Boyz Update: Apparently, there was a listening session last night. I wasn’t invited. It’s not right, and it’s not OK.

Unreleased 2Pac Footage Pt. 4 (Vibe)

Here’s yet another forgotten gem from VIBE‘s treasure trove. And as always, Pac’s raging against the machine. He repudiates rumors of getting raped in jail and speaks on his ideal mate. He even throws a cheap shot at former President Bill Clinton for his romps in the Oral Oval Office. Even the Commander-in-Chief got around. Previously: 3. 2. 1.

Red Cafe x DJ Envy Live In Japan

Guess Hov ain’t the only keepin’ his passport well-stamped. Puff’s latest Bad Boy and DJ Envy have been doing the damn thing in East Asia. Here’s some recent footage of them rockin’ an intimate crowd with “Dollar Bill” and “Hottest In The Hood.” Watch Cafe give his chain up at the 3 minute mark so he could go stage divin’. Yup, these guys are havin too much fun overseas.

New Music: Omarion Feat. Gucci Mane “I Get It In”

Radric is startin’ to develop quite the reputation as an R&B savior. You take the wackest song, he makes it better. Well he couldn’t save this one. Omarion is the wack juice poster child. This dummy (no Mechanical) went from Young Money to StarWorld? And you wanna call your album, Ollusion? This just might be your final post on my Radar. Holla at Lil Mama. Props: Mr. X

DJ Webstar Meets The Wu-Tang Clan

Look how geeked this guy is. Def Jam super employee Shawn Pecas celebrated his born day last night and many rap luminaries were invited. I don’t consider DJ Webstar one of ’em. Yeah we’ll sign your autograph lil’ autotune boy.

Mariah Carey Dedicates New Album To MJ

Angie Mar on the right. Alright! Team MC’s main connect Roger Friedman, reports that Mrs. Cannon gives it all up to the Gloved One on the new CD droppin’ next Tuesday. Also let’s not forget the fancy magazine packaging deal in the liner notes. “Angel” is a little different than most releases. This is the first time I can remember a major magazine — Elle, in this case — sponsoring the liner notes. “Angel” comes with a mini magazine tucked […]

It’s Official: DMX & Ja Rule Squash Beef

I knew my eyes weren’t deceiving me. As X was leaving the venue, he stopped by Ja’s seat on the aisle. Greeted him with a smile and a hug. Ja looked real happy like a lil’ brother and embraced him back for about 5 seconds. The crowd literally went, “Ahh!” Then X and his new dame bounced. Ja remained seated. No Lil Mama. Flip Cam FAIL. Sidebar: I don’t see any pictures yet. And Ja didn’t walk red carpet.

While out there The Life Files got him to address breakin’ bread with C Breezy around the 2 minute mark. Did you feel any particular way about working with Chris Brown after… Oh, Never! Never! After what? After he got into a personal thing that’s his business. I would never. You don’t kick a man when he down. You don’t look […]
