Tonight, the Young Money traveling circus begins in Scranton, PA. The 1515 Boys crashed yesterday’s rehearsal and ticket holders take note: Due to Drake’s ACL injury, he will not be performing a full 30 minute set. That’s what we need, a light-skinned dude hobblin’ out in short spurts. Let’s hope it’s not as bad as the BET debacle.

The Rosenthals know there’s a single lady with a big sack of cash out there. Jungle fever? Oh my!

Does anyone think Esco has the money to cough-up per month? You rap geeks are lucky: Nas is gonna be recording rap albums until he’s 65. Ha!

Last night’s Entourage ep was rap star-studded. Not only did Bow Wow thankfully get the boot, but your man, the Southside King popped up next to the Sopranos chick’s man on the mean streets of L.A. What’s up with dude callin’ Fif out by his government? Show some respect, son.
Spotted: Dre
Besides the Game is a groupie clips that were previously released, this was my favorite part of Hov’s convo with the UK radio kingpin—Jigga salutes the Gloved One. Might be time to get that “You Rock My World (Remix)” in your Serato set list.

Hip-hop’s next future star took the news of him being passed on Jay’s first single in stride. In fact, he told the homie Keith Murphy, he never thought he would get that look.
“I don’t know who came up with that rumor to be honest, but I always knew what Jay’s first single was going to be. Me and Jay did a lot of work together. Maybe at one point he was considering doing it and someone got over-excited and put out a press release that I was going to be on the first single.”
He also goes on to say that Jigga might’ve jacked his new joint.
“I think the ‘Run This Town’ song is phenomenal. I think Kanye kills that shit. I actually heard that song when it was a Rihanna track.”
Props: Rap-Up
