How’s that for a headline? Ha!

Seriously though, Robbie just shared the following jewels from his recent sit-down with GFK for HHC:

Can you tell me about this R & B album? Are there a lot of collaborations?
Ghostface: Like when I did ‘Ice Cream’ and all the stuff like that. Remember ‘Ice Cream’? An album like that. A mixture of things, like you know how I did that Ne-Yo joint and ‘All That I Got Is You’ and stuff like that. It’s my last album [for Def Jam] so I wanted to do the album I always wanted to do, man. You gotta tell the fans that you not gettin’ no younger here – we gettin’ older! And everybody don’t sell crack no more, man. I don’t sell crack, yo. I ain’t movin’ no bricks or none of that other shit. I ain’t shoot nobody in like…since the early 90’s, man. How long you gonna be 40 years old and actin’ like you still sellin’ cracks and you on the block and you doin’ this and you doin’ that when times is more serious, man. We in a fuckin’ recession, B! Ain’t nobody gettin’ no money, man! We gotta stop lyin’ to ourselves and lyin’ to the fans. And the fans gotta stop bein’ so dumb and ignorant, and know it’s time to talk about grown-man situations. Shit that happen in the real life, inside your household, your love life, your personal life, that’s just like, ‘Damn, it’s hard for a nigga to get some money!’ It might be so hard to get some money that your girl might wanna leave you someday because you ain’t get no money like you like you used to be getting’ money! Those are real situations, so I think it should start goin’ back to songs that mean shit. All that other shit outside is just gonna keep us dumb, deaf and blind, yo, and we ain’t never gonna get nowhere.

I Heart Ignorance: UnKut

That’s a good look. Better yet, a hood look Mrs. Carter. Congrats.

The part of Regis was replaced by Will Ferrell and he along with the W.W.Y.L.F. of the TV world, Kelly Ripa, chopped it up with the homie from the Westside. Hey I’m married to the ‘Town, I gots to represent. 

Is there no accounting for taste nowadays? SMH. Last time I saw this nigga, he was on a go cart at the VMA’s.

I only meant to do one today but this blues legend just passed. Sad.

OK, let’s balance B.Dot’s Gay Fish bashin’ (Hey the kid’s from Southside Jamaica, Queens—he ain’t got no boss) and post what appears to be the final version of the “Paranoid” video. Again, I think this joint had summer hit potential, but the video goes in a whole other direction. Nice try but…

Props: Nah Right

Sidebar: SeanTheRobot got good ears. It does sound re-mastered. That I like and appreciate.

Ma, you got a sticker on your head.

Three days ago at the MTV Movie Awards, Sacha Baron Cohen caused a firestorm as “Bruno” when he landed ass first on Eminem. Many speculated for the days whether the stunt was staged or real, with everyone speaking except the man himself. Breaking his silence, Em spoke exclusively to Rap Radar about the entire “ordeal”.

It’s not good when your album leaks the same day it gets pushed back two months. This guy stays losing. SMH.
