FAT JOE NAME CHANGE FOR NEW ALBUM
Fat Joe recently updated fans on his delayed J.O.S.E. Part II album and said he is considering a name change for his follow-up project which will be more reflective of his early rap days.
Joey Crack also talked about the all-star line-up on J.O.S.E. Part II.
"We worked very hard for this, October 6th, my album Jealous Ones Still Envy Part Two," Joe revealed. "Lil Kim on that album, Weezy on that album, Akon, T-Pain, Fabolous, Raekwon, I ain't even play that Raekwon The Chef yet. It's called 'Ice Cream Man.' Get at me...I like to think I'm better than ever...We talking about a future album, one after this. Probably no more Fat Joe, probably Fat Gangsta is coming. 360. So we just gonna go in so hard, body on that thing like just killing people. The whole joint is gonna be straight violence on that joint right there, so, look out for that. That's the Fat Gangsta, the return of the Fat Gangsta, 'Flow Joe, fat n*gga with the shotty...'" (Invasion Radio)
KANYE WEST TALKS ABOUT THE "ROCKSTAR"
Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West has broken his silence as of late by questioning, what he feels is, the disappearance of the typical "rock star" and blamed fame as its tipping point.
While keeping his words brief, Yeezy wrote in his signature all caps and expressed his feelings towards "fame."
"WHAT HAPPENED TO ALL THE ROCK STARS?," he wrote Wednesday (September 23). "THE FAME KILLED THEM!" (Kanye West's Blog)
Yeezy previously spoke with radio personality Big Boy last October about his fame and popularity as an artist having an effect on his late mother's passing.
The most crushing part of the interview was when Big Boy read a statement from Kanye in the newspaper that said: "I talk so much about labels, calling myself the Louie Vuitton Don...the irony of it all is for me to lose the most important person to me to Hollywood," and Kanye West elaborates: "I feel like if me and my mom never moved to Hollywood she would still be here."

Kid Cudi Deads Twitter & Blog, "It Shouldn't Be That Easy For You To Get In Contact W/ Me
Rap newcomer Kid Cudi has confirmed that he deleted both his Twitter account and personal blog saying he became too overwhelmed with maintenance.
Despite the popularity of Twitter among the rap community including Diddy and Fabolous, Cudi vouched to dead his personal account.
"I have an iPhone and I don't even utilize all of the applications on it," Cudi explained. "Just alone on an iPhone you can have multiple e-mails -- I have two e-mails -- text messaging, some people have AIM on there, MySpace, Facebook -- and I don't even have those things...With Twitter, my two e-mails, text messaging, and my phone ringing, that's just overwhelming. And you gotta think of it like this, what did they do before there were cell phones? Use a pay phone or write a letter. Or you catch 'em at the crib....I think I want to take it back to that. Sometimes it just shouldn't be that easy for you to get in contact with me." (Rap-Up)

jayz might be mad at beyonce'
September 14, 2009. Jayblog.tv just got wind of some EXPLOSIVE NEWS!!!! Apparently Kanye's outburst during Taylor Swift's acceptance speech has caused more trouble than he could have imagined.
According to one of Jayblog.tv entertainment industry insiders, it caused a HUGE BLOW UP between Jay Z and Beyonce.
The insider, who asked to remain anonymous, told MediaTakeOut.com that soon after Kanye's outburst - MTV network execs were furious. They asked Kanye to go out on stage and apologize - which he refused. Instead, our insider explained, Kanye chose to leave the event.
But here's where things get interesting. While all this was happening backstage, Jayblog.tv learned that Jay Z was right there with Kanye. According to our insider, "Jay Z was upset with the way [MTV] treated Kanye ... so when he saw Beyonce do what she did with Taylor - he saw it as a very disloyal move."
And that disloyalty wouldn't go without being punished. According to our insider, Jay LEFT THE EVENT without Beyonce. He reportedly called up Rihanna - who did not attend the Awards show - and attended at least 2 of the VMA afterparties with her instead.
Trust us guys - the drama surrounding this is about to HEAT UP!!!
We'll give you more as soon as we get it!!!

HELL RELL DOESNT TAKE BACK WHAT HE SAID ABOUT JIM JONES AND DIPSET
Dipset associate Hell Rell has stood by his recent accusations that Jim Jones and Juelz Santana tarnished Cam'ron's rap group image and explained why it's all about profits in the end.
While not taking back his words, Rell argued it was his opinionand he would stand by it.
"That was pretty much my opinion man," Rell said about his controversial statements. "It wasn't nothing like [I was] pretty much like taking shots at n*ggas because at the end of the day, we all family. We all got this tattoo so at the end of the day, that was my opinion. Was I wrong for voicing it online or in front of a camera? Who gives a f*ck? That's how I felt. At the end of the day, I speak my mind. So n*ggas get mad, which is cool, but I really don't care. At the end of the day, it's about money. We all got rich. We all rich. Everybody got money, Dipset West, it's a whole new chapter. N*ggas probably mad because they not a part of the chapter, whoever's mad, I don't give a f*ck." (Forbez DVD)
Juelz Santana recently spoke with SOHH and addressed Rell's comments.
"Hell Rell is upset," Juelz explained. "Hell Rell's upset, he has no outlets right now. His only source of making money is for us to get back together which I understand -- but at the end of the day, he know what would happen. So for him to say that, he's just talking. I got nothing but time, he could always come to my studio and dosongs and records with me but he couldn't get Cam on the phone -- I know Hell Rell at the end of the day. Like, I know Hell Rell. He really doesn't bother me when he says certain things, it's just that the game is dirty right now, people don't really have no outlets. Me, Jimmy and Cam were really the only ones besides everybody else, without us all being together, it makes it even harder. Just as much as it makes it harder for everybody, it makes it even harder for him. So I feel he's reaching for a little bit of attention, unnecessary attention. Hell Rell knows what it is...I let Rugga Rell be Rugga Rell when the camera comes on. I've seen Rell plenty of times. That sh*t is about nothing, I couldn't have beef with none of them. It's like, n*ggas is talking, man." (SOHH)
JAY SAYS GAME AND JIM JONES AINT NO COMPETITION MANNNN!!
Jay-Z recently revealed his reasons for not responding to disses from The Game and Jim Jones, saying he does not view those rappers as real competition.
Hov also said he felt rappers like Nas and Eminem are more on his level.
"Not really that competitive, because the competition isn't based on real competition," Jay said in the October 2009 XXL Magazine. "I mean, Game, I'm his f*cking idol. If you ask him and he's being truthfully honest with you it's just based off his insecurities and for the most part, pretension. That type of competition doesn't do anything for me. It's almost like someone trying to set you up, and everyone knows they're to set you up --. it's just dumb. It's not in the spirit of competition, because he's not competition for me. He's not. Not then, not ever -- he'd have to improve considerably. Competition for me -- is Nas, Eminem. Like Jim Jones? That's ridiculous to me. So how do I respond to that? I can't win. If I win, then they'll be like, 'See. Now chill. You're a f*ckin' bully.' And if it manages to throw a haymaker from the West Coast, then it's like 'Oooooh.' It's not even fun. Like, before I did it, because I would diss anybody. Now who has time to do this sh*t everyday? But before, when I was running after the little fat n*gga [Meeno] from Mase's camp, I was doing anybody. Anybody said anything. If I thought you said something. When I was running in the streets, I wanted all that type of activity. Nobody wanted nothing. Now everybody's a tough guy." (XXL Mag)
CARTER DOCUMENTARY
Film director Quincy "QD3" Jones III recently spoke on Lil Wayne's upcoming The Carterdocumentary and said fans should expect to witness the non-stop work ethic of the self-proclaimed "Greatest Rapper Alive."According to QD3, the film will also show Wayne's dedication to music around the release of his platinum-seling Tha Carter III.
The main thing that the documentary shows -- I think a lot of people would imagine that Wayne is hanging out in clubs with a bunch of women and drinking champagne and that sort of thing. But I would say the main thing you learn when you watch the film is that Wayne is a workaholic. Straight up. After seeing this I think a lot of people will respect his process a lot more. We were with him like seven or eight months before he went platinum and then maybe two months after. That's the period we were shooting him for and I remember one day when he got a text from Sylvia Rhone that he went platinum, he was like, 'O.K.' He didn't even flinch. He was 'O.K., cool' and 'get off my bus, I gotta record' His whole thing is he's like tireless worker and a lot of people will be very surprised how he's 100 percent dedicated to his craft...I really gained a lot of respect for him in that regard in terms of how he approaches his records and then how hard he works. I worked with Tupac a lot and I feel like he may end up with a bigger catalogue thanTupac if he hasn't already. That kid works, he's a hard worker, super focused and doesn't get caught up in the industry like that. He just stays in the studio all the time." (Hip Hop Wired)
