Here’s some new material from the pride of Adamsville, GA. And just for the record, Mikes verse > Yung Ralphs. And it’s not even close, it’s by a long shot.

Yesterday afternoon, Joe leaked photos of his new sneaker, The Blackout [No Red & Meth] via his Twitter account. The kicks are manufactured by Protege and will be sold exclusively at Sears and K-Mart chains. Personally, I think the sneaker looks like a hybrid of Kanye’s space boots and Nike’s Air Force Commands. Props to Joe for diversifying his portfolio, but I don’t think I’d want to walk in his shoes.

Here’s one helluva co-sign. Yesterday, Pill was featured in the music section of The New York Times. Over the weekend, I listened to his mixtape 4180: The Prescription (4180 is named after one of his addresses) and was enthralled by its wit and authenticity. I previously said on Twitter that his video, “Trap Goin’ Ham” is the best visual I’ve seen this year. His next clip, “Glass” from his follow up tape, 4075: The Refill is scheduled to drop in a few weeks. Get wit’ it or get lost. OK, then!

Here’s the incredible visual to Ghost’s interview with Angela Yee last week. This is better than anything you’ll find on your idiot box. Tune in!

Look who’s still publishing. Hey, I still haven’t listened to this chart-topping crooner’s new shit, but guess you can say he deserves a cover somewhere. That being said, I don’t think I’m gonna cop this from my local newsstand man. YN still supports all magazines tho. Belee Dat!

The Rosenthal’s get silly à la Broken Equipment, with Tim Duncan Drake and his AMW comrades. Who invited Rawse?!

For those who haven’t seen the America’s Most Wanted tour live yet, Lil Wayne ends each concert with a tribute to MJ. Last night in VA as “Billie Jean” played, hometown fuck boy Chris Brown joined the fun and proved he’s still got all the right moves. Have we fully forgiven this guy yet? I missed the announcement.

The 1515 Boys delve deep into the record deal we’ve been hearing about for months. Diddy breaks down how he got a big piece of the Red Cafe pie and plugs the Welcome To Bad Boy mixtape.

Now, I’ve never been one to clock another man’s paper, but I think it’s time for an intervention. A moissante diamond encrusted toy car? I mean, really. You’re 19-years-old DeAndre. You know, an adult. Now would probably be a good time time to start acting like one. Yes, you’re entitled to spend your money however want, but as a public figure, your prodigal habits help perpetuate stereotypes regarding Blacks and finance. Hey, I’m no Suze Orman, but at least I’m smart enough to know the difference between guns and butter.

Recovering from his pratfall Friday night, Drake penned a note to his fans:

This bottle of Opus One is low but my spirits are high my friends. I am about 2 hours away from Toronto, CA where I will be spending the next chunk of time recovering from a surgery that I now must have. I embarked on this tour with a torn ACL, MCL, and LCL and due to the events that happened the other night lord only knows what other damage I have done. On the bright side I will begin the reflecting and soul searching that its going to take to make this album and my outfit on the night I fell was crack. I will forever push myself beyond the limits despite advice and recommendations given because even with this new found success I am still the kid who wanted this more than anything in the world. Its funny when I read comments from previous fans who have lost interest because of the radio play and exposure I have. I just want to assure anyone reading that nothing has changed on my end. I refuse to get comfortable, I refuse to fall in line and follow anyone elses formulas. I still work as if So Far Gone had never dropped and I’m still trying to figure out how I’m going to gain entry to this game.
