Raekwon attempts to explain why we’re still waiting for Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II and shoots down the previous leaked songs that he says won’t make the cut.

“I had to make it my business to serve appetizers and that’s what they were. Guess people must of thought it was Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II. I’m in the back laughing because I know at the end of the day these are just Jamaican beef patties.”

“Let’s go eat exotic pasta/I can tell you a lady just by your posture.” Ha!

Swizzie is outta control.

Their YouTube channel says:

“Swizz comes with his second solo LP with the most Ballerific video shot entirely in Dubai. I’m talking 6 star hotels, Roll Royce EX Drop Head Coupes, Sand, Gold Faucets & More.”

Can’t wait.

There’s nothin’ more entertaining than watching Jim Jones bark on someone. Especially when it’s not you. Ha!

Props: Nah Right Lite who got it from TheRawReportDVD.

Also in case you ain’t heard the Jim Jones play is back and is open to the general public for a five day run starting March 24. Go to TicketMaster and handle your biz. I saw it and enjoyed it and I’m not just saying that ’cause I don’t wanna get barked on. Double Ha!

I try to tell these Rosenthal characters I’m not an actor. But they keep involving me in their hillarious sketches. Peep our history after the jump.

Looks like The-Dream finally let ole girl leave the hotel. I can’t front no disrespect but I’m not feelin’ ole girl’s new look either.

I co-hosted Green Lantern’s Shade 45 show Monday night and the above video is The-Dream singin’ off the head to some classic Biggie beats. It was quite impressive to watch in person. This is different footage than my man Green Lantern‘s man mistakenly sent out and was picked up by the homies at 2DopeBoyz and Mr. X yesterday.

Now I gotta get Green to give up that Reflection Eternal and Jean Grae freestyle footage and audio.

Apparently as the lastest Pimpin’ Curly video forewarned, 50 didn’t take too kindly to Ross’ greasy talk on the Funk Flex show. So what does the walking powder keg gon’ ahead and do

Ok I can’t get confirmation from the big homie but I heard from a reliable source that Brandy is now signed to Hov’s new Roc Nation label. Plus Jay and his partner in big deal making John Meneilly are also gonna assume management duties. YN expects a perturbed text from SC in 5… 4… 3… 2…

Bonus Throwback:

Young H.O. co-signing a Young Brandy. It was written. Ha!

Catch up if you missed Part 1.

On “Official,” you say “Busta is ferocious/I’m flawed and precocious.” Explain that. What do you mean?
Exactly that: I am not perfect.

And what girl told you that?
I know, I know, right? [Laughs] That
