Nicki Minaj Performs "Right Thru Me" on Jimmy Kimmel Live
Her Soul-Glo afro reminds me Cleveland's ex haircut("Family Guy"), what's her name again? She even slept with Quagmire.
Video: Dirty Money "Coming Home"
They premiered it last week during the American Music Awards. Love the song. If only that train to Paris could just leave already.
Meanwhile Swizz Beatz leaked another banger as part of his "Monster Monday" series:

Video: Bugatti Boyz (Diddy & Rick Ross) "Another One"
More like the Ciroc Boyz, hence the infomercial you about to watch. His album with Dirty hasn't dropped yet and he's already creating another group. You thought your fans were confused before? Check now. You can recognize Officer Ricky writing style (and flow) in Diddy's verse.

In case you missed it this past Thanksgiving on ABC. Y'all RnB broads better take note, this is the Blueprint. Pun intended. Hov' won!
Lloyd Banks , Fabolous & Juelz Santana Live Performance in NYC
At the Hammerstein Ballroom for the Fabolous and Nicki Minaj concert. A few technical difficulties w/ the mic but the show must go on. They performed "Start It Up" and "Beamer, Benz or Bentley". Love the support they keep showing each other. Some NYC Hospitality for your ass.
Speaking of Nicki Minaj, here's the Lil Kim diss song:

Video: Soulja Boy "Speakers Going Hammer"
I'm getting a sudden feeling of deja vu (No celeb' cameos though), remember this:
Wednesday, November 24, 2010
Lloyd Banks, Swizz Beatz, Ryan Leslie, Fabolous & Pusha T Perform "Start It Up"
Great seeing NY cats and other rappers supporting each others. Obviously they didn't have to show up since Kanye was also holding his album release concert in NY later that night. Great support.
Recap: Kanye West Album Release Concert in NYC - The Performances.
Mr. West brought out the big guns for this one. Kanye performed the whole album in it's original sequencing with special guest dropping here and there. We're talking Teyana Taylor, Bon Iver, Mike Dean, nicki Minaj, Rick Ross, John Legend, Pusha T and Cyhi Da Prince.
And of course Kanye closed out the show with a 10-minute rant aimed at Bush and Taylor Swift. He also thanked the fans and bragged a lil bit. Gotta love him.
T-Pain Show-Off His New Bugatti
The newest edition to the Bugatti Boyz (Diddy, Ross, Wayne, Scott Storch). A 2008 model though.
Video: T-Pain ft. Rick Ross "Rap Song
Very creative visual. 50 Cent used the style for the intro of his "Ok, You're Right" video, but T-Pain took it to another level..
Bonus tracks:
T-Pain - Black & Yellow [Freestyle]
T-Pain - No Hands [Freestyle]
T-Wayne ft. Smoke (Field Mob) - Hoes & Ladies

Video: Flo Rida "Turn Around (5,4,3,2,1)"
Hate him or love him but Flo sure deliver on the visuals for this track. Flew the crew to Brazil and recruited an array of Brazilian vixens shaking their derriere to the rhythm of Samba. Don't be surprised if this get banned for TV.
Let me watch this again for a more thorough review, for "professional" purposes of course, it's a dirty job and somebody gots to do it

Lloyd Banks & Ryan Leslie in The Making of "So Forgetful"
Don't recognize the work of RLes editing team here. Can't wait for him to release his own version of the studio session.
Jay-Z Interview On The Daily Show w/ Jon Stewart
I'm going to have to book this book eventually. The promotion is awesome, almost overload but still.
Bonus: Check out his interview w/ Michael Dyson here.
Waka Flocka Flame Covers "Respect" Magazine
The O.G Elliott Wilson (Rap Radar) is back on his Editor duties, formerly at XXL mag, now at "Respect" magazine. So for his first cover he obviously went against the grain and picked, Summer anthem extraordinaire Waka.
Many of you will disagree with his choice. Sure Waka was deserving of a cover this Summer but now I'm not too sure. He had to overlook Kanye, Jay and Nicki, tough pill to swallow. Anyways, on a business standpoint, if you want to sell, you gotta make the streets talk and for that you gotta create a controversy.
Mission accomplished. The streets are buzzing. Can't wait to read his editorial, his shit talking was the reason I subscribed to XXL while he was there. Brilliant writer.
Keri Hilson Covers "Jones" Magazine
Word on the tweets is Keri is the first non-professional model to grace the cover of Jones. (Saw what I did there? Get it? Grace, Jones? ha! ha!)

Dr. Dre Covers "XXL" Magazine [Dec/Jan Issue]
XXL got an exclusive interview from the Doc and obviously they talked "Detox" which has become an Urban Legend, I'll believe it when I see it. Meanwhile of bunch of unfinished tracks keep leaking all over the web.
Dr. Dre ft. Eminem & Skylar Grey - I Need A Doctor
Dr. Dre ft. Snoop Dogg & Akon - Kush
The magic was gone a few years back when Dre didn't delivered "Detox". The fans stopped caring a long time ago. Your move Dre.
Catch a few excerpts from the interview here.
T.I "No Mercy" Album Cover
Renaming the album doesn't cu it for me. He should shelve it and remake another one. Oh wait he's in jail, never mind then.
Drake Covers "GQ" Magazine [Man Of The Year Issue]
After making the "Man Of The Year 2010" list, Drake announced the title of his next album "Take Care". He's gracing one of the 5 covers.
... featuring Eminem
I believe the track is featured in the "Skyline" movie soundtrack.
Jay-Z & Rihanna on Letterman
Jay still on his book promo tour, and Rihanna doing some cross-promotion. Roc Nation bitch!
Video: Soulja Boy ft. 50 Cent "Mean Mug"
Why am I liking this all of a sudden? SB still has the worst vocals on it but you gotta admit it's tough track.
If you don't like it, Fuck your mean mug then!
R. Kelly ft. African All Stars "Hands Across The World" [One8 Project]
Uncle Kellz teamed with African brightest stars, artists like 2Face (Nigeria), 4×4 (Ghana), Alikiba (Tanzania), Amani (Kenya), Fally Ipupa (Congo), JK (Zambia), Movaizhaleine (Gabon) & Navio (Uganda), for a charitable cause.

Kanye West On"The Today Show" w/ Matt Lauer
Last night Kanye went on a Twitter rant and lashed out at Matt Lauer for a poor lack of professionalism during the interview he gave him.
Mr. West felt ambushed and cornered when Matt insisted that Kanye looks at Bush's face on the monitor screen and expresses his remorse also when asked about the MTV/Taylor Swift incident, Kanye wasn't too fond of the producers running the clip over and over again while he was answering the question.
Kanye and his management team will no longer grant interview requests until the end of his promotional tour to focus solely on the Music.
Yeezy is currently working on a collaborative album with Jay-Z "Watch The Throne", coming out next year.
Video: Birdman "Fire Flame"
Bugatti Veyron, huge mansion, chopper, vixens dressed in red... He went all out, what's a budget when you're the Boss?
