“Holy water/Odds against ‘Ye will slaughter/Ever since that day I opened up that Midnight Marauder.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think this is a song that most of you have never heard before. I do think they performed this at the SXSW Fader show in Austin. Here’s the first leak off Big Sean’s Finally Famous debut. Let them shoulders move.

Various sources, including Spin, are claimin’ Rihanna cooked somethin’ up in the studio with the Diamond Princess that goes at that fuck boy Chris Brown. Sounds too good to be true, especially when it says that this joint below is Ri-Ri’s current ringtone. SMH. You can’t make this up. I mean, actually you can.

Our dude J-Rod chopped it up with the hottest MC in the game for Wenner Media. Drake admits in the piece he was a lil’ nervous about his Hot 97 debut. Put your blackberry down and read this:

“That was probably, to be honest, the first time in a long time I was nervous,” Drake says now, recalling the moment. “I don’t get nervous for much. But it was like the first time I was like, ‘Wow, this is a legendary moment and a legendary opportunity that I’m being given.’ It was crazy to be standing in the Hot 97 radio room looking at Flex in the booth. Doing what I seen him do for so many years, for some of the greatest artist to ever be in this business. And to think it was just me there and it was all happening for me, it was definitely … Surreal is the word.”

Humility is cool, but you gotta rise to the occassion. Let’s go Drizzy!

So around 9pm tonight EST, Hot 97’s Funkmaster Flex will play the world premiere of Jay-Z’s Blueprint 3 single, “D.O.A.” That stands for Death of Autotune as Kanye teased on MTV awhile back. The song was produced by No ID and Mr. West. On Sunday, it will be sent to the masses. Unless LowKey or Mr. X hit the jackpot. Ha!

Sidebar: Despite various reports, as far as I know Hov will not be at Hot 97 Summer Jam on Sunday. But you never know.

DeAndre tells the 1515 Boys that he couldn’t comprehend Jigga man’s bars and hooks.

“Jay-Z, I always respected him,” Soulja told us. “Always. But I

didn’t always like his music. I guess because I was too young, and I

couldn’t understand what he was saying…I got signed when I was 16

years old. Before I got signed, I heard the song, and I was like,

‘That’s Jay-Z.’ My favorite song from him was ‘Dirt Off Your Shoulder.’

I guess I liked the beat or the way he was flowing on there. Any other

song I used to hear, I ain’t really vibe with it like that… In the car ride over here, we was listening to ‘Brooklyn Go

Hard,’he added. “He said, ‘I’m Jackie Robinson — I jack, I rob, I

sin.’ I didn’t know he was snapping like that. Back then, I couldn’t

understand none of what he was saying.”
