R&N 3-23-08 FUNERAL FOR FAT JOE??????

YOU HAVE TO WATCH THIS!!

50 does it again. I haven't laughed that hard in a while. I just wished 50s albums could be as good as he is funny....anyway MF 3.0 is always getting out the exclusives day or night, it doesn't matter. And I apologize for not getting that Flashback Friday out, but it was Spring Break. Now it's back to business.

R&N - 12/21/07

Geffen & Interscope Merge!

Man... the music industry needs to get it's act together... And I thought I knew it all (from what I've seen) when it came to puttin' out and distributing music... But if Interscope, home of G-Unit, Eminem, Dr. Dre, Eve, Black Eyed Peas and dang near errybody else has to merge with another label because they lost on so much money... That's just crazy... Rumor is that they have merged, due to losing about $18 Mill off of the following projects... Eve (pushed back), Nicole S (scared to release) and Will.I.Am (flopped like a fish outta water, despite a pretty good 1st single...) They'll pick it up in 08, right? Man, support your favorite artists before they get dropped, please.

J. Prince Suing BET & Apple!


After hearing about, I'm wondering if J. Prince is the new Suge Knight...
J. Prince is suing BET & Apple because he claims that the series, "American Gangster" incorrectly labeled them as a killer and used his image without permission. If you want which episode, it's the one about Larry Hoover...

Now after another report of someone suing him over being beatdown by 7 men at one of J's gymnasiums over a bad deal, I'm REALLY starting to wonder about him... That's really Gangster, for someone who claims shouldn't be on that show.

Tiny - In The Travel Business?!


Now that TI's on House Arrest, I heard that Tiny is now a travel agent... Couldn't believe it, so I looked it up.... http://www.ytb.com/Default.aspx?wa=tinystravelxscapes

Wow.... Who woulda known... That's crazy! But I guess she's got to make the paper now, while TI works on Paper Trail (his next album)

Sean Kingston - From Kingston, New York!

Tha boy Sean Kingston is trying to bring his music to the hood... And it's kinda hot... Check it...

Sean Kingston - Kingston

This video ain't half bad and got caught in my head... I'll just throw it up...

Webbie ft. Lil Boosie - Independent

Now THIS is a hot one... It's been floating around for months, but this video is pretty cool. I'm mad Kanye, Pharrell, and Lupe weren't in it, but I guess they was a lil' busy. At the same time, I say it was a great concept considering that the group is called "Child Rebel Soldiers" Anywayz, Check it out.

R&N - 12/08/07 - EXLCUSIVES!

Hey folks,

50 Cent - Coke At The Concert?!


I didn't think it would be THAT big a deal... 50 is always on some shadiness within the crew... It's like his crew got diplomatic immunity... When's the last time that you heard something that crewe got in trouble with, and it didn't somehow get downplayed... No one's even talkin' about how Yayo smacked up that kid a while back...

Anywayz, here's the clip if you haven't seen it yet...



The Dream - Divorces His Shawty?!


That's such a shame... But it turns oiut that Dream is leaving his wife, Nivea AND their daughter. Even worse, the girl he's leaving her for is IN his new "Falsetto" video... Wow... You can say so much on that? What's been going with dude? Is this a publicity stunt or what?! Doesn't he think his Shawty Is A 10?... Ugh... I may post on this later...

Sean Kingston - Promoting Intel?!


Wow... Dude's song is kinda hot... AND he's promoting Intel in his new video, Gotta Move Faster... I see him doing an Intel commercial soon. :-p

R&N - 09/16/07

Hey folks

Now that I've seen it, I'm not sure WHAT'S goin' on with Jim Jones & 50 Cent....
Check the vid...

Also, a real shocker:

Elephant Man - Stampeded On Diddy?!


A WHILE AGO (like last year), Diddy had signed Elephant Man... Don't know exactly why, but I guess he thought he was a good reggae artist... or a good tax write-off. :-p Rumor has it, Elephant Man and his crew came to his office, and assaulted him over some money...(or lack thereof..)

Ironically, he's got a single with production from Swizz Beatz called "Let's Get Physical". I'll figure it out, probably later in the week.

KANYE/50 Cent Results.... (Off 1st Day Sales!)


Thanks to a record-shattering first day at iTunes and traditional retail, Kanye West will debut at #1 on next Tuesday’s HITS Top 50 Album Chart, surpassing 800,000 units in sales! Kanye whooped 50 by an estimated 170,000 units!

Watch out for "Kanye's BONUS TRACKS" later this week! :-p

Hey folks,

I've noticed that I've been getting people from more than just my Facebook group checking out my blog. So, if you want to join the group for Excusive updates, feel free to join from this link:

Anyway, now for the news:

Jim Jones - Going to G-Unit?


There is a rumor goin' around that Jim Jones may be movin' to G-Unit. That'd be hilarious. Cam'ron still has beef with 50. 50 gave props to Jim Jones. 50 interviews Jim Jones on Tha Bassment... You neva know...

I know Cam'ron will try send some shots that way, more than likely. Stories that Cam and Jones aren't cool anymore. That will be something crazy, for real...

Freeway - Album Pushed to November?


Somebody needs to really work on timing. Freeway is signed to Rocafella/Def Jam. Kanye... Def Jam... So why you got to push back Freeway album again, since he's had a single out BEFORE Kanye. (Correct me if I'm wrong.)

So, I guess due to the Kanye/50 Cent clash, looks like Freeway's album got pushed back to November. I heard the story holds true for Lupe Fiasco's "Cool" album. Now Free's gotta push out another single, I think. Make it happen, Free.

Foxy Brown - Happy Birthday


Happy birthday to Foxy Brown. she turned 28 today. It sucks that she's gotta be in jail on her birthday, though. Keep ya head up, Foxy.

Catch This: For those of you who check out AHH, just remember who posted up that Chris Brown video before Illseed. :-p

EXCLUSIVES!

Audio: Kanye West ft. Young Jeezy - Can't Tell Me Nothin' Remix


Video: Deelishis - Rumpshaker


Rumor: As strange as it sounds, Game may actually do a track on 50's new album, Curtis. Rumor has it, Game may actually rejoin G-Unit. Game isn't about beefing anymore, but who said 50 will let him back in?... More news when I get more info on this.
