While Tip was on a conference call with the game’s top DJs, the good folks at the NMC got their grubby fingers on his new single before the 5 pm launch. We missed you, Mr. Harris! Splash UPDATE: MC’s Be Warned: Y’all got five months to get your thing together.

Say word Reggie Noble got a Twitter and the balls to go in over the bridge of the Jacksons’ “Heartbreak Hotel”. Dedicated to the King Of Pop, of course.

Trigga Tha Singer strikes again. Damn, he goes in on these tracks better than most rappers. And while he’s out on tour, keep your hand on your girl. Ha. UHTN

“Evil lurks even in Guru’s life still. And that shit will cease eventually…” Last night on his HeadQCourterz radio show, Preemo spoke on his Gang Starr partner for the first time. Listen. DJ Premier Blog (Which is a fansite run by a guy named Gimantalon from Belgium)

Just like her “Empire” partner, the future Mrs. Dean got to kick it at O’s house yesterday. Sneak peeks at upcoming vid with B included and performance on the other side.

[vodpod id=Video.3180827&w=425&h=350&fv=] It was all a dream… or a nightmare. Black Barbie posters on your wall, bitch. Afraid of the future! HHNM

[vodpod id=Video.3178971&w=425&h=350&fv=] While enjoyin’ some dinner on Ustream, Weezy shouts-out Peter’s baby boy and says he is Young Money’s next acquisition. Are we about to witness a dynasty like none other? Ha. WSHH

O’Shea can you see? Mr. Jackson has a new Kanye-esque announcement on his blog, which includes the declaration of I Am The West‘s lead joint. Read the West rest here. Heads Up: Nav

[vodpod id=Video.3178541&w=425&h=350&fv=] “My name is Wayne. I bring the rain” And, this is how you spend your last days of freedom? SMH. WSHH

[vodpod id=Video.3155416&w=425&h=350&fv=] To hype up their third annual Roots picnic this June 5th, ?uest hints at the end of the clip that Darryl and Joe may have put aside their differences and perform for the first time since the passing of JMJ. Just in case, I’m gettin’ my ticket now. Legendary! DHBH Via Clash

Joey IE tried to tell me but I didn’t listen. I walked into my office this morn and we had Shade 45 on (Morning After, son) and I was like, “What’s that joint, it’s kinda hot?” Come to find out it’s the Brazilian born, Florida-bred J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League MC. Now I haven’t downloaded his 4:57 PM mixtape yet, but I can co-sign this joint. Shit, I shoulda known, Khalil on the track!

Loso finally dropped it. So now the victory lap begins as he explains the mixtape’s inspiration, the delay, his first collabos with Cam and Minaj, and why Joe Budden didn’t make the cut. Another phone-in at the end. RealTalkNY

Looks like an hour before he blasts off his comeback song, Clifford’s gonna hype up the top jocks in the game first. Smart move, partna. Splash Again Previously: T.I. “I’m Back” Single Cover

You like good music? Shut up and groove then. Good morning! Dajaz Uno

No homo on the title but the Boss handles his biz over Tha Bizness’ soul production. Ricky still has great taste in beats. Somebody get him some McDonald’s. Or does he want Burger King. Ha. OS

OK, this is reaching “Exhibit C” status. Leave Banks shit alone! No mas. No question: Joell’s version upstages this bullshit. NR

The wait is almost over. Tmw at 7. Courtesy of Live Mixtapes. R U Still Down?

It’s been long enough. Think we can let this one loose. Sorry, Mr. ESPN. ALC on the track!

On most nights during this tour, Jay just gives the audience a taste of track 8 from his debut album. But in honor of the hometown, Hov went all in on this lyrical masterwork from his early catalogue. Modern-day Jay-Z fans get the fuck out this post.

Friends. How many of us have them?
