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

Who says Nawlins hustlin’ big bosess can’t get along? In today’s V60, Weezy’s poppa gives it up to Mr. Miller.
Baby: I mean, shit, to me, Master P was one of the best hustlers to ever do this shit. He did it big—35 albums in one year, bruh. Ain’t nobody ever did that. I think he did it one of the best. I think Master P accomplished something nobody ever did and probably nobody will ever do, too. To where today that seems damn impossible. I just stayed focused on what we was doing. I ain’t never wanted to be what the next man was doing. I respect what they accomplished.
Cosign: I was workin’ at The Source during No Limit mania and it really was insane. Barbara P had an advance CD like every other week for the kid. I still got my custom leather jacket somewhere. Yeah, YN witnessed a movement or two. Or ten. Or fifteen. Or 20. Ha!
I got an email today from Def Jam about their latest signing from South Carolina. Apparently dude has a really big record called “Nasty Song” and is no longer on good terms with a certain controversial radio personality.

Sidebar: Word in the tweets, is that Ghosts’ new album is going to be more R&B than Rap. Think Beyonce’s “Summertime (Remix)”.

I know you’ve heard this on the radio. The guys behind this soft rock classic just got crazy paid. 100% Publishing—here we come!

I thought I saw something like this floatin’ around the Internets earlier this year, but Rolling Stone got the brothers from Long Island to give a track by track account on the 20th Anniversary of their classic debut. Yup, you could say YN knows a thing or two about the makin’ of stories.

Bonus: The following is a cool idea that’s never gonna happen.
To mark 3 Feet’s two-decade anniversary, De La are putting together a tour, a book and a album including remasters and remixes of the original tracks, along with some “re-interpretations”: In 1989, when the LP was released, samples were a new frontier and many on the album were used without clearances, which would prevent the tracks from being re-released. But De La has an electrifying idea about how they can release those songs.
“We’ve been in conversations with Warner Bros. to explore re-recording some of the songs with some of the people we sampled from,” says Mase, a.k.a. Vincent Mason. The discussions are still in early stages, but the trio is hoping to cut “Say No Go” with Hall and Oates and “I Know” with Steely Dan, among other tracks. “It’s real cool to know that we have lasted this long, people appreciate what we do,” adds Posdnous, a.k.a. Kelvin Mercer.
That clip was actually pretty entertaining, and you can tell Tony Yayo isn’t holding back when it comes to speaking on legal situations and industry drama. It’s interesting how he points out that real legal expertise comes from actual experience, not just talking, which is something many people overlook. In serious cases, having the right professional, like an fda lawyer, can make a huge difference because legal knowledge is very specialized and not something you can just pick up casually. The situation also highlights how public statements and media appearances can sometimes hurt more than help when legal matters are involved, something even professionals warn about. It’s a reminder that whether it’s hip hop disputes or complex regulatory issues, relying on a qualified fda lawyer or legal expert is always the smarter move. Overall, the video blends humor with a real underlying message about law, representation, and knowing when to let professionals handle things.
