OK, this morning my WSHH player conked out and tonight my MTV one (no I can’t just embed vidoes, it’s a long story) did the same. Still I can’t go to bed without acknowledging the work my homie Shaheem Reid and company are puttin’ in.

All in a day’s work:

50 Cent promises two albums this year just like Marshall did.

Gucci Mane details his comeback plans including shootin’ video with Cam in ATL manana.

Now that he’s not “retiring” B.O.B. changes rap name to Bobby Ray.

That’s not to mention the crazy Asher Roth and Lil Wayne footage.

Once again, props to the whole squad at 1515. Keep up the good work!

The outkasts of Camp Curtis flick it up at a recent party in Houston. Let me watch my mouth since I’m headed to Texas. Ha! I don’t want no problems, problems!

No Reggie Noble needed as the underrated legendary group, De La Soul run through “Ooh!” at a recent L.A. show. Don’t these guys have some album comin’ out through Nike, I wanna hear it.

On his May 19th promo run, DJ Drama takes a moment to speak on scrap with Jeezy’s affiliates.

“There’s a lot of rumors spread around the Internet. They said my chain was snatched. I got bloodied up. It got a lil crazy out there but you know, a lil scuffle. Grown man business. Nothing crazy. Nothing serious. Happens every day.”

“He a definition of a true fresh MC. What we can’t forget is that like he said it’s always about the work ethic. And when you makin’ strong music and you can stand around for 20 pieces, 20 darts. You a bad man.”

First New York Magazine disses his blog and then they interview Kanye West about it. What are they a rap magazine? Ha! Anyway ‘Ye admitted he does have two helpers at the University but all content needs to meet his approval.

“It might [blog for] two hours in a day, it might be fifteen minutes in a day. I have two people that I hired and I tell them exactly what I want

Every day a new rapper joins the only social networking site that matters. It’s gettin’ increasingly hard to keep up with all the MCs on there. You can’t make a Jim Jones joke without Tru Life hittin’ you back. Here Reflection Eternal’s finest breaks out the Twitter pom-poms. Be clear: I run Twitter. Even my haters follow me. Ha!

What’s a day without leakage from All In A Day’s Work? Here’s the intro. My personal fave so far.

“To Be Told…”

{mp3}01_to_be_told{/mp3}

We just put a feature up on this guy and he’s talking about “retiring.” SMH. Rappers get on blogs and social network all over the place and all they end up with is system overload. Then they want to take their ball and go home. You kids are crazy. I’m goin’ to SXSW to talk some sense into you young fools.

Kid Cudi Retires (And he’s sorry like Vanilla)

Looks like Mr. West has upgraded his lady friend as the two were all dolled up at the Opera last night.

A far cry from when Ye’s buddy Perez Hilton was throwing ole girl under the bus.

Bonus: Necole Bitchie has audio from an old Angela Yee Lip Service intv that a raunchy Rose did.
