Looks like The Carters aren’t the only ones being harassed by the TMZ nation. While in Miami for the Cons video, Mr. West and his Robocop chopped it up in the sun and tried to avoid the flashing camera lights. (Ok, it was daytime but you get it) Just wait for the ass shot.

Uncle Rush continues to get his Arianna Huffington on, gettin’ Shad Moss to further explain why he parked his Lambo in the Williams brothers’ garage.
To anyone who’s confused or says I don’t belong in Cash Money…Let me remind you that I’ve been down with Baby, Slim, Wayne and the whole Cash Money family from the beginning. 10 years ago when we really were “Lil” me and Wayne did a song for the Hardball movie soundtrack. Baby was influential in my third album. Last year, Wayne and I spent 2 months together in New Orleans filming Hurricane Season. So please don’t be misinformed and think I’m just jumpin’ on “what’s hot” or trying to ride others success. This has been my extended family for more than a decade.
Did somebody say Hardball? Joe said no pauses!

Drizzy addresses the accusations that his bars are strictly for the ladies.
“I think there’s two types of rapping about women, there’s rapping about fairy-tale stuff …not to take away anything from an MC like this, but you take a rapper like Bow Wow, who is a genuine ladies’ man and all his songs are to make ladies love him and love themselves. And that’s cool. That’s a brand of music that might not always be what’s real, you may not always be telling the truth, but at least someone is gonna feel good about the songs you’re making. With me, when I touch on women — which I don’t feel like I rap about a lot — I feel like I’m just rapping about myself.”
He also kicks a few bars from a new song he just recorded with Wayne.
“She’s nothin’ like every other dime/
When I think of her, couple things that come to mind/
Thoughts like if she end up, my baby mother fine/
Cuz we only use a rubber like every other time.”
Let’s be careful out there ladies.

Now this quick clip got me a lil amped because it deals with the genesis of Pun’s musical career. Wow, Fat Joe was already six years in the game when he brought Rios in the game. Plus, Raekwon reflects on putting Pun on the “Firewater” track. What you kids know about the Relativity Urban Assault album? Ha!

Not the best sound quality, but always interesting to see Flaco do his thing. This was from the show a few nights ago in the ATL. As you can see, no Slick Rick, no problem. This is a cool joint off The Ecstatic but still….
“Priority” >>>>

Janet Jackson’s ex-man isn’t feeling the latest of the seemingly endless MJ covers. As you can see, the coverline says,” When Michael Was Cool.” Feeling it was a backhanded tribute, Don Chi Chi got his Kanye on.
HOT COVER WACK ASS TITLE. SEE THIS IS THE SHIT THAT PISSES ME OFF PEOPLE WANNA USE THIS MAN TO MAKE THEM MONEY BUT CONTINUE TO THROW LIL SNEAK DISSES. AS FAR AS ANY FAN WOULD SAY, HE WAS COOL HIS WHOLE LIFE. I SAY THAT BECAUSE THE FANS ARE THE ONES THAT’S GONNA MAKE THIS COVER SELL 3 TIMES MORE MAGAZINES THAN THE LAST ONE SO WHY TITLE IT THIS?

Sidebar: The Carters are on vacay. Told ya the album was done. And tell them paps to fall back.
These daily freestyles are hard to keep up with. So to make up for my tardiness, here are some previous cuts including today’s , “Full Time Gangsta” featuring K.Dot. No relation.
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jay rock ft k.dot-full time gangsta]“Poppin That Hammer”
jay rock-poppin that hammer
“How You Do That There”
jay rock-how you do that there
Bonus: Here’s the visual for “Mandatory”. I thought the first verse belonged to Ab-Soul. Jay, rocked me to sleep. Great track, nonetheless.

[vodpod id=ExternalVideo.866686&w=425&h=350&fv=%26rel%3D0%26border%3D0%26] We all know our homegirl Angela Yee’s raunchy sex talk show has your favorite MCs too shook to appear on. But who knew R&B singers were in the same gang. While Chico DeBarge keeps his cool, his fellow crooner Joe catches feelings over the usage of the word “pause” and dips out of the interview. Jigga said grow a set. Ha! Hey Joe! Props: Team Yee
Man, this drop from Masspike Miles is seriously smooth from start to finish. The Road Less Traveled totally delivers on that signature R&B vibe, and the production choices across these tracks are just insane. It honestly feels more complete than a lot of full-length albums out right now. Tracks like "Devoted" with Bun B and the title track hit different when you are just cruising around the city late at night. If you are heading out to grab the physical copy or hitting up a late-night listening session across town, trying to flag down reliable taxi services can sometimes be a real hassle, so planning ahead definitely saves the mood. Overall, this project proves why he is such a vital part of the Maybach crew. Definitely keep this one on repeat for a while.
