Uncle Murda - Almost Murdered!


New York rapper, Uncle Murda which has done tracks with Jay-Z, Fabolous as well as others was shot in the head last week... Apparently, it was a small graze, and there was no brain damage... So, now, he's got 50 Cent type comments. Please believe he's gonna end up using this in new songs and try and get a major deal off it, lol.

Lil Wayne - Video Update


You know, I'm gonna need Cash Money to stop volunteering themselves to go to jail by having all sorts of guns and drug paraphenalia in their whips. Honestly and truly... unless you really think this is gonna promote "5 Star General" and "The Carter 3", I'm a need y'all to chill... Anywhere, here is the video of what Dilly was talking about earlier....

Dilly here, given yall sum more freshness, 3.0 style.

Nelly hops on Chris Brown's "Kiss Kiss" remix
Like every big hit in history you gotta give it a remix, Chris Brown followed suit and brought Nelly to the studio with him. Hey, and it's pretty hot. Nelly came with it, and after hearin' it you realize that this beat fit Nelly's style perfectly. It's about time he came w/ sumtin' hot, still ain't gonna help him push any units on his next album though, what yall think?

Chris Brown ft. Nelly - Kiss Kiss (remix)

Trill Fam the new Cash Money?

Gotta show the south sum luv, seein' as thats where I'm from and we just that much better than the East coast....lol nah I'm playin' u know I luv the East too, but anyway my boys from Louisiana Trill Fam Entertainment gotta another one that's killin' the club. The track's called "Adios" features Boosie, Webbie, Foxx, and newcomer Big Head. Man Trill Fam really is doing there thang right now. If you count all Boose & Webbie's joints togeter on that Gangstaer Musik, then the joints Boosie & Webbie did separately, then add Trill Fam's "Wipe Me Down", "Watch My Shoes" and "Independent" then u'll notice they've been killin' the club scene for the past 2-3years. They basically the new No Limit/Cash Money. Too bad they ain't makin' nearly as much as money as them boys did, peep the track here:

Trill Fam - Adios

Mixtape Messiah 4

I know we just talked 'bout Koopa the other day but had to let yall know that he just announced that he'll be releasing Mixtape Messiah 4 via his website on December 18th. If any of yall know how Koopa been doin' lately his MM series has been doing better than his albums...lol yeah I said it. Neways it's good new for quality music.

GET IT BIIIIIGGGG

Dallas's own Trap Starz Clik finally got a video for their club banger "Get It Big" which is killin' radio & clubs in the south right now. This trio just got snapped up by Universal Music Group, hopefully not Universal Republic because then they will definitely won't be gettin' no mainstream luv, but either way they tryna make noise across the U.S. so peep the video n remember where you saw 'em first.

Alright I'm out, enjoy and VOTE! - ~Dilly

R&N - 12/01/07 - EXCLSUSIVES!

King Koopa unites H-Town again


Peep Chamillionaire's new track Won't Let You Down (Texas Remix). It's fire. Man, it's a shame Koopa didn't sell this time around. I think he tried to do too much different stuff.

Chamillionaire- Won't Let You Down (Texas Remix)

Crime Mob - Short one member!


Lol, I don't know big of news this is but Crime Mob, the group that brought you 'Knuck If U Buck' and "Rock Yo Hips' has annouced that her fellow lady rapper, Diamond has left the group. No word on the reasons why, but Princess did say that Diamond wants to go solo and is going to drop an album in '08. She also told us to check out her new myspace and peep Diamond's new songs on there. Solo album?...fo real?

DJ Toomp and Mariah Carey collab!


DJ Toomp of Young Jeezy and T.I. fame is workin' on Mariah's upcoming album to be released in 2008. Apparently MC is almost done with her project but needed a club banger and that is exactly what DJ Toomp came with. I can't wait to hear what this seemingly unlikely pair came up with. Please believe MF 3.0 will bring it to ya as soon as we hear word.

Girl Fights? Lil Kim calls out Remy



Lil Kim has called out Remy Ma, talkin' down on the former Terror Squad's first lady on a freestyle to "I Get Money." Kim can be heard spittin the lines, "Who the hell is this chick, she's been out kinda long / Had one hot song, I'm sorry I missed it / Too busy being conceited being on my lipstick / Taking trips out in Cali chillin with the Hiltons." Now I know Kim use to be vicious back in her hey day but face it this ain't 1999, and Remy Ma is KNOWN for battlin', I mean that's what she does. And plus she crazy, the girl shot up her homegirl for stealin' money out her purse! Kim really need to be careful. What yall think?

Girl Fights? Janet Jackson vs. Mariah Carey


And speakin' of Mariah Carey her album which was to be released this month, but then was pushed back to early 1st quarter of next year is now rumored to have THE SAME release date of Janet Jackson's new album. Now I know they ain't no real beef with these women but you gotta wonder how long healthy competition stays healthy comeption. Should be real interesting to see what happens with sales and what not seein' as JD, Janet's boyfriend is helming Mariah's project, and L.A. Reid, the man responsible for bringing Mariah over to Def Jam is lending a big helping hand to Janet's new album. Wild. To me it all seem like a good way to bring more buzz to both projects, and ayo I think it's working.

Mannie Fresh - Sister found dead!


And to report on some sad news, Mannie Fresh's sister, Angela Bryant, was found dead in her New Orleans home (11/29) and was shot to death. No leads yet on why, or who but police suspect a random burglary. If this is the case then what the hell is going on? These robbers is fo real trippin. Angela Bryant is survived by her two young children, two and seven, as well as her newly wedded husband of last month. What a shame.

This is Dilly, yall enjoy the weekend. oh and GO VOTE!

T.I. IS BORED!

So yesterday this video had been poppin up in and around the internet of T.I. chillin in his bathrobe professing his INNOCENCE, yes innocence to the public. What's funny about the video is T.I. just look like his bored out of his mind. Big ol house, all that money, and can't do nutin w/ it except kick it w/ 3 people who he probably don't wanna be with anyway. But yo what is really is sad that this cat still tryna say he not guilty. I mean dude, yo own mans ratted u out, it was a set up B, how can u go against that. And they seen the guns in your house. In case yall haven't seen it I'ma show yall the pic right below the video. Shout outs to streetcred.com for getting the exclusive footage.

Guns found @ T.I.'s Home

Jadakiss - Official ROC Crowning...goes awkward


Ayo, so like we said here at MF 3.0, Jadakiss was closing in on signing w/ Jay-Z to the ROC... well its now official. And they made it official recently at a concert Jay had in NYC on Sunday Night. Aiight, so here is how it went down...so Jay-Z after running through a couple of songs, stops the music, and announces that the Roc Boys are in the house and then brings out Jadakiss as the newest addition to the Roc. Jada throws up the sign, and everyone yells, similar to Dame presenting 'ye (Kanye) in the "Through The Wire" video. Ok, so DJ Green Lantern who was spinning that night throws on "All About The Benjamins" and Jada repeats the chorus a couple of times and then was like nah, nah that's Puff's joint put one of my joints on. There's a brief silence while Lantern cues a new Jada song and then throws on "The Champ Is Here." Instead of wrecking the verse and showing y he got signed, Jada wussies out and goes "ah, man I don't know those lyrics, you put me on the spot." The song continues to run while Jada lookin' back at Lantern like put sumtin' else on, put sumtin' else on. Jay-Z ain't pleased. The situation goin' from bad to worse, Jadakiss reluctantly blurts out, "Man, put on Roc Boys, let's do Roc Boys," and the show goes back to Jay-Z.

ARE YOU SERIOUS!? B, you just got signed and you don't know your on lyrics to your song! That's not what that is. At this rate New York will NEVER be back. Anyway, here go the video, enjoy!

Paul Wall & Chamillionaire BRIEFLY Reunite

For all yall southern cats out there who remember when Paul Wall & Chamillioanire were a duo with Swisha House and then w/ their own Color Changing Click, well my brother, who lives down in Houston, just now told me that last wednesday @ Texas Southern University, Koopa & Paul Wall who were both scheduled to perform separately with a slew of other performers shocked the crowd and came out together and performed "In Luv Wit My Money." If you're like me, this is BIG news, as I've been waitin' for the longest to get these cats back together. Hopefully now that they have both tasted success and had sophomore efforts flop maybe they'll collab and released a follow-up. Fingers crossed.

Anyway, that's is all for now, keep posted 'cuz my man AB got a annoucement to make soon...

Hey folks,

I apologize for my absence, but ya boy got things to take care of...

Anyway, now for the news...

Jay-Z & LL Cool J - Def Jam Beef!


So if you haven't heard, LL Cool J, has some beef with President Carter. LL is to Def Jam, as 50 Cent is to Interscope right now. A flagship artist. And he's been upset that they made Jay-Z President instead of him. So yea... LL's been throwing jabs @ Jay about that... It's getting interesting now:

LL was talking about how instead of Jay doing the "I Get Money Remix", he shoulda been "doing his job". Other remarks similar to that.

Jay says: "I'll be honest if I wanted to go there, I just really go all the way out there. But I got respect [LL Cool J] did a lot of things. I don't like the way he's carrying it cause we coulda definitely talked about this. Or he coulda gave me a phone call... but I respect him as a legend in the game and he's gonna get a couple passes because of that."

We'll see where this goes as time progresses.

Ciara ft. TI - Goodbye My Dear

Chamllionaire - Ultimate Victory Review

Elephant Man - No Fight With Diddy


Apparently, the Elephant man fight was not true, (at the time, I woulda believed it, lol) so I had to debunk it. I hear his album is comin' out soon, though... Something to go check out, maybe. Bad Boy, Baby, heheh.

Chamillionaire - Hot Album!


From what I've been hearing, the reviews for Cham's new album have been pretty good. Unfortunately, the Kanye/50 clash kinda overshadowed him, so his sales may take a dive because of that. But we'll see.

Hey, buy his album, and you may win a plaque!

Anyway, check out his "Evenin' News"

Irv Gotti - Foul Interview


You know, I really just thought this was a horrible rumor... but, now it's poppin' out like EVERYWHERE. Irv "The Inc" Gotti got on Wendy Williams and aired out Ashanti, talking about how he had an affair with her. Keep in mind Irv is 10 years her senior. Keywords... Viagra, Extacy, record deal...

I hope he's just trying to get some press. He's killin' Ashanti's image now. I wonder what Ashanti and her momma gonna say about this... I'll post when more news develops...

Chamillionaire - Road To Ultimate Victory

Chamillionaire is getting ready for his upcoming profanity-free album, Ultimate Victory. He is brushing off 50 remarks about him, though.

"Let him [Chamillionaire] go sell gospel records, if he's so f***in' righteous..." "I can write around the curses if I want to, but you can't tell me to write around the curses."

This is what Chamillionaire told AHH:

"There are way more interesting things to talk about, besides, beef and dissing people." "I'ma leave that to everybody else. There was a time were the Hip-Hop battle was cool, cause it was lyrical or whatever, but now, its stale, people used it as a gimmick."

Instead, Chamillionaire will use his album to express his opinions on a number of subject's, including Kobe Bryant, OJ, President Bush and Hurricane Katrina. He just shot a video for it. Watch out for it. Chamillionaire's hopes Ultimate Victory is due in stores September 18.

Quick Tidbit: Don't forget that Sean Kingston's album comes out next Tuesday! I have high hopes for it. :-D
