R&N - 06/13/08 - R. Kelly Case Pt. 2

It just makes me so upset with this case... As much good music (or at least hit music) this man makes, you can really let him get away with having intercourse, trysts and urination sessions with underage girls (as young as 13)? I almost want to throw up at this point... After reading these articles, you'd probably be sick to your stomach as well...

Thank you CNN for stating facts of the case...

Woman testifies she had sex with R. Kelly


R. Kelly acquitted of all child porn counts

Hopefully, I'll have a guest blogger post on the site a more detailed story on this incident, but until then, this is all I got for ya on the topic. If you have any opinion about this verdict, feel free to comment.

R&N - 04/30/08 - Hump Day EXCLUSIVES

Maaaaan, I got sum stuff for yall. Download, watch, and enjoy.

Busta Rhymes Made It

Busta IS Back, and is pulling out all of the spots. Always one to be different, Busta is late on this one and hooks up with Linkin Park for the single, "We Made It." The single is suppose to be the lead single for his upcoming album, Blessed, that is if the street single, "Don't Touch Me," doesn't grow bigger than this. MF 3.0's got the video and the track for you first. Enjoy.

Usher Teams With Beyonce AND Lil Wayne

Three of the top artists in the industry who have each crafted their niche in the game have hooked up for Usher's Make Love In The Club part 2. The song is less of a remix and more of a new song and I guess was created in order to generate more steam before Usher releases his album, finally. The track is hot, Beyonce outshines all of 'em as usual, and Lil Wayne sound like he saving a little too much for his Carter III album either way the track is hot and just shows the star power that Usher got.

R.Kelly's Hairbraider VideoWe finally get to see the chick who did this to his hair! J/k, but really. Kels next album will be called TP: 4th Quarter and is dropping in the summer. Should be a hot, like most of Kelly's album, but it always do seem when he put that Twelve Play name to it, it just elevate the status. Guess we'll have to see, 'til then enjoy the video.

Raheem & R. Kelly Serve Up The Customers

The joint was already hot when Raheem dropped it as a single now R. Kelly done put his touch to it on the Customer (remix). When you first hear the track it was already reminiscent of a R. Kelly track so it only makes sense for him to jump on the remix. Raheem is really one of the promising R&B cats that knows how to make good music. It definitely won't hurt for him to collab with R. Kels just as long as they keep it strictly musically. No hair, fashion, or girl, I mean women tips. HA.

Raheem Devaughn - Customer (remix)

Mariah Carey and Jay Z Are Both Saying Bye Bye To The GameI'm just playing. But they are both together on yet another remix to a Mariah Carey joint. Many of yall probably have not heard this joint yet, unless u done copped the album E=MC2, but either way the track has already been blessed by Jay-Z and has been hitting the airwaves. Pretty solid joint, but what do you think? P.S. Did yall hear that MC and Nick Cannon might be engaged? WTF? I didn't even know they were dating. Props to Nick Cannon, yall gotta stop hatin' on him 'cause obviously he's pulling em. From Christian Milian, to Victoria Secret model, to MC? That's a high ass batting average.

Mariah Carey - Bye Bye (remix) ft. Jay-Z

The Dream Needs Your LoveAlthough his album is banging, The Dream has been receiving TERRIBLE reviews for his segment on the Heart of the City Tour with Jay & Blige. City to city have been saying the Dream really ain't that good of singer, he can't move, etc. Despite all that, The Dream is pushing through and has just dropped his video for his third single, "I Love Your Girl" ft. label mate, Young Jeezy. This track is one of my favorites on the album, but definitely don't think it's gonna help ol boy push any more units. Maybe he's going for a European push. Either way, enjoy the video here.

The Dream - I Love Your Girl (video)

Ying Yang Twins DropThe always animated duo of Ying Yang Twins are back doing what they do best with their new club song, "Drop." The song both similar and unlike any of their classic booty songs of the past is produced by Issac Hayes III, yeah the legendary Issac Hayes son, and uses a Beastie Boys sample. Man, I swear music is just comin full circle but anyway here's the kicker. After it's release just a little over a month ago on Myspace, as the Ying Yang Twins used the net before they offcialled decided on it to be a single or not, the song has been played over 30 million times! Very close to a Myspace record. Whether the song is hot or not, somebody likes it. Is this the year of the Ying Yang Twins? Their album, "2 Live Crew," a nod to the original Two Live Crew drops later this year.

That is it, I'm out to get ready for this Glow In The Dark concert tomorrow, HOLLA!

03/05/08 - Hump Day EXCLUSIVES

Dilly here for another edition of HUMP DAY EXCLUSIVES. Yes, we are almost to the weekend, but right now we're already here to the Hot Ish.

Dipset Is OVER!And we all saw it coming. 40 Cal and Jay Bezel done released a track titled "Dipset Is Ova" stating just that, and venting on the frustration with Jim Jones and Camron's beefing. In a recent interview they both said that their failure to not speak or come to terms with eachother has resulted in the whole Dipset failure. They said nobody's making money but Cam and Jones, and it ain't right. The true star of the group in my opinion, Juelz Santana also weighed in and put it like this. "When I came in the game, at 18, and was being treated in a certain way, it was cool, I had no money, I was new, and Cam was the one that got me out. Now, after some success, after some weight being gained, and I'm still being treated the same way? That just don't work." I understand what the man saying, they need to give Juelz his shine, and quit tripping. Either way, Juelz the only one signed to a major labor, as his new album is post to drop with Def Jam this year and his ex-comrade Jim Jones has rumors flying about him being dropped from Warner Bros without even releasing any material. Ouch. Hopefully all ends up well with the members, who knows, but I do know this, at the end of the track there's a SKULL GANG shoutout, so it look Julez's Skull Gang just got some new members.

R. Kelly Disses Ne-Yo On New TrackNow yall knew R. Kelly was hood right? No? Well I'm tellin' u he is. The boy don't play, just with little girls. No, I'm playin' but he really Kels talk greasy like the next man at that's exactly what he doin' on this track "I'm A Beast." Some highlights of Kel's "rap":
Never been a snitch boy/ Never been a b*tch boy/ Why I gotta hate on you?/ Look at me I'm rich boy/ You need a steering wheel, the way you ridin my dick boy/ Say you're a go-getter/ Go get your own sh*t boy..."
Now although he don't say who exactly he talkin' bout, it ain't hard to tell. Peep it here.

Fat Joe vs. Papoose In A FIST FIGHT???

Aiight, so here's the run down. Apparently, last Friday Fat Joe, Papoose, Yo Gotti, Gucci Mane, and Cassidy was doing a show for a radio station out in North Carolina. Before the show, while at the hotel, Joey Crack wanted to find Papoose and question him 'bout sum disparaging remarks made towards him while on air back in NY with 50 Cent. Fat Joe roamed the hotel 'til he found Papoose in Cassidy's room and asked dude, "Do we got a problem?" Papoose, MANing up says, "If you want a problem, we can handle that." Apparently that's not the answer Joe was looking for an so the scuffle ensued. Now both parties have different accounts of how it went down, with Papoose coming out first sayin' Fat Joe was 8 men deep, and Papoose was only with 3 cats and wanted to fight one on one but Fat Joe refused. He then says that during the fight he got his hits in, and quote "put work on his chin." He also said on the radio station that he handled his business. Two days later Joey Crack responds with a video, after fake pics were floating around with him with a bruised face, sayin' Papoose is lying and that it was 4 on 4, and that his DJ went to the hospital, his bodyguard was bruised up and Papoose was bruised up. He also told media outlets that Fat Joe sat him down AFTER the beat down, Capo style, and told him why he got his @$$ beat and that they squashed it. Which Papoose does admit to. LOL, man. Now if you ask me...Papoose ain't hanging with Fat Joe, I mean look at the size of the kid. And the detail in which Joe spoke about the fight in leads me to believe that he telling the truth. He also said Cassidy and Gotti was there, and they'll let us know how it went down. Only time will tell.

Papoose's Side Of The Story

Fat Joe's Side Of The Story

Video: The Games Heads To PrisonMr. Lame, I mean Game turned himself into prison yesterday to begin serving his 60 day sentence for his weapons possession charge. Not gonna speak on this too much as yall know I think The Game is trying to publicize jail life and use this, for some odd reason, as promo for his new album. Dude didn't even want to fight the charge, don't make no sense. Peep the video here.

And I'm Out. Comment, Come Back.

R&N - 11/24/07

Hey folks,

So lemme get back to those stories I told y'all about yesterday... PLUS a new one I found out about today!

Timbaland - Having A Wife & Kid!


Aparrently, Timbaland is planning to get married... to his publicist! On Nov. 21st, it was announced that his baby daughter was born. Timbaland and Monique Idlett have supposedly been dating for two years now, and are planning to get married soon... Congratulations to Timbo!

Ghostface - In the new IronMan Movie!


I heard Ghostface actually got a part in the new Ironman movie comin' out soon... I forget who's gonna play the infamous Tony Stark, but it won't be Ghostface, lol. Anyway, I heard he finished his part for the movie, and i think it's gonna be pretty hot...

Ne-Yo - Kicked off R. Kelly's "Double Up" Tour!


I don't know exactly what happened, but apparently Ne-Yo is supposed to keep the exact reason of why he got kicked off a secret... Rumors were that Kells wanted 7 dressing rooms for himself, and kinda left Ne-Yo without one... Other sources claim because Ne-Yo kept questioning R. Kelly's authority... Regardless, Ne-Yo is officially off the tour, and is now trying to do his own for his fans...

It SO sounds like the "Best of Both Worlds" tour with Jay-Z and y'all saw how that fizzled... Ne-Yo says he respect R. Kelly's music, but NOT R. Kelly as a man! That's pretty bold, but after that whole trial case with Kelly, among other things, I don't blame him.

P. Diddy - Finally Proposing to Kim Porter?!


So, you think Diddy has finally come to his senses after having his 6th child named Chance... That's just crazy... After his 3rd baby mama, he realizes he needs to marry someone... Rumor has it, Diddy is planning a to make a SPECTACULAR proposal any day now.

Diddy has supposedly already sent out invitations. There's going to be celebrities, camera crews, the whole sha-bang. If this is the case, Congrats to Diddy... finally.

Yezzur, here goes my first official post. Comment, compliment, trash it, that's what blogs are for.

This is the remix...

With all the hot joints out right now, there's a whole lot of 'em w/ remixes. You may have heard some of these spinning radio already, some of 'em you won't that's why MF 3.0 brings it to ya.

1. Andre 3000 - 3000 something

You remember 30 is the new 20 joint on Jay Z's Kingdome Come album? Well this is Benjamin Andre rippin' it while enlightening everybody who listens to it.

It's suppose to be on DJ Drama's upcoming cd Gangsta Grills: The Album b4 The Mixtape, but

Greg Street went n stole the joint n put w/ Jay Z old verse n a Ice Cube new 16.

Greg Street version

2. DJ Khaled - I'm So Hood remix ft. Young Jeezy, Ludacris, Busta Rhymes, Birdman, Big Boi, Fat Joe, Lil Wayne, T-Pain

Khaled is doin' it right now, and as a fellow DJ I can't be happier, even if his voice is annyoing. Who?! WE NI**A!!!

Oh, and peeps been talkin 'bout Weezy got the weakest verse on here...what yall think?

3. Playaz Circle - Duffle Bag Boy (remix) ft Lil Wayne, Juelz Santana, Birdman

Weezy finally spits on the track that he should have to begin with. Birdman follows him to studio again n f**ks up again, u can't help but wish that Baby could have been swapped w/ Luda, the killer of hot tracks right now. Yeah I said it. (See, I Get Money, and Freaky Girl remix)

4. The Dream ft. R. Kelly - Shawty Is The S**t (10)

Luv the original, the remix, is hot, but w/ Kels on it, it should have been better...u'll see what I mean.

5. Alicia Keys -No One (remix) ft. Cassidy

Weird choice to have on the remix, but then I remembered Cassidy was on J Records thru Full Surface, so hence the link to my wifey there. Cass go hard, n the slight beat change is hot.

6. Flashing Lights remixes: One w/ Jay-Z, and the other w/ my n**as Clipse.

Yall know Flashing Lights is one of the best beats on Graduation, these cats gracing the track makes it even better.

Yuuuup, so while T.I. was trying to liquidate his 24s for bail money, and Diddy was still slapping people around at clubs, I was busy compiling my TOP 5 JOINTS of the week...

5. One Republic - Apologize

Just in case I forgot, Bow and Omarion will be doing a Jay-Z/R. Kelly -like collabo album. Hopefully, it will turn out a lil better... Please no mase and throwing up guns at their concert, lol. But, honestly, i think it will be interesting to hear. What do you think? It should be out this fall.

Ice Cube - 10

Ice Cube will be in a new action thriller called "10" based off a book written by Shannon Eric Denton and Keith Giffen.

The movie revolves around a man who receives mail informing him he is involved in a competition for his life with nine other individuals.
