Sup World! Check out this Music Forecast exclusive interview with rap artist Warren G. His new album is called "The G Files," you should give it a listen.
Word on the street is that T-Boz of TLC is about to drop a new album soon... She may be working with Pharrell. More than likely, Polo Da Don and Dallas Austin will be producing. I hope it's good... I need a lil' bit of TLC back in my life, heheh.
Kanye West - Good Life Not A Good Look
Man... it's lookin' like every producer now a days is jacking. Timbaland, Dr. Dre, now Kanye??? Kanye is being sued by Dayna Staggs, A.K.A. DMystro from Maryland for copyright infringement on the song "Good Life." Staggs wants 85% of all world sales of the proceeds from the music that uses his work. Man, wasn't someone suing Kanye and Luda for "Stand Up" a while back... I'm a need people to stop jackin... But Good Life was a heck of a jam last year...
Nate Dogg - This Dog Got Probation
Man... haven't heard from Nate Dogg in a good minute... But just when you finally hear about them... BAM... Punchin' his ex-girlfriend's new boyfriend in the face... Nate Dogg was sentenced to 3 years probation yesterday after pleading guilty to the assault and is now prohibited from carrying weapons... Go fig... Ya'll got comments, go 'head and post 'em.
Mario - Got Some Moves
On a lighter note...
Now I know that Dilly was clowning on Mario for gettin' on Dancing With The Stars, but MAN... this performance was hot... I'd give it a 9.5 . Homey was doin' his thing. Peep the vid.
According to an official report from memebers inside of Nate Dogg's camp, the singer suffered a mild stroke last month in his home. He was treated at Panoma Valley Hospital from December 19th to the 26th. The singer was left paralyzed on the left side of his body. He is now recovering at an undisclosed rehab facility. The good news is that Nate Dogg has not suffered any brain damage, and his singing voice is unaffected. Let's all send out our prayers to a true legend in the game.
No More Money In The Bank For Banks And Mobb Deep
Apparently, 50 Cent could be cleaning house over at G-Unit. While this is just a rumor, it isn't too far fetched considering the dismal numbers both acts have to show on their last studio efforts. I can understand the Imfamous Mobb since I really can't remember anything they have done since Shook Ones and that came out in '95. Oh and the Quiet Storm. Ok maybe that's a bit harsh, but on the other side of this, I thought that 50 and Banks were really good friends. I didn't see this coming. Sometimes it's just business.
