“Takin’ my time. To make up my mind. Do I wanna be a superstar?”

The boy is back! And he’s in the studio. Hey, Chuck I’m diggin’ the hook. Welcome back, lil nigga. Drive slow, homie.

Puff came through the Central Park Summer Stage yesterday afternoon to support The Abstract and couldn’t resist joinin’ in on the fun. I heard Tip tore it down. Sorry, I missed the show, Kamaal.

Bonus: A quick close-up on Combs’ dance moves.

Here’s another performance from ‘Ye and Mr. Hudson at the recent iTunes festival across the pond. Although this presentation is kinda flat, I really thought this joint had summer banger potential. Good job, Def Jam!

This is pretty funny. YN never went out like this, kids. Actually, a young Mr. Wilson did interview M.O.P. back in the To Tha Death days and after I said something with the word “bummy” to Billy Danz, let’s just say things got a lil’ testy. Ha!

Spotted: Nigel D.

Curtis’ cronies got some new flicks of Ci-Ci and her new do and yup, she still cleans up nice, I guess. Wonder how they got this first? Stickabush. Ha!

Ok fellas, I’ll admit it—she’s nice to look at, but can you please pass the plugs? Turn the volume down and enjoy.

Note: The footage is old, but this is gonna be Hilson’s next single from the album no one’s buying.

Rap-Up

I’m old enough to appreciate this, but don’t know what to make of it. It ain’t wack, but it ain’t hot either. Oh well.

Spotted: Rock The Dub

Sidebar: Fuck it, they can do it live.

Ain’t no party like a Snowman party. And thankfully, Please Don’t Stare captured all the thug love that went down last night at Club Love. And after the jump, Jizzle proves he don’t need Yeezy to rock the party.

Here’s a demo of a song that I believe VIBE‘s final cover boy did for Nick Cannon’s wife‘s new album. Yup, there’s lots of leaky-leaks in the world of Rhythm and Blues too. Oops.

Last night, Joe Budden’s supergroup played a headlining show at Toad’s Place in New Haven. During a funny backstage interview, Mouse clears up the rumors that he and Tahiry have gotten their Janet and JD on. Can a man go to strip clubs in peace? Ha!
