"Def Jam Recordings: The First 25 Years of the Last Great Record Label" will hit store shelves this fall. The book was written by Authors, Bill Adler and Dan Charnas, which will include a preface from Rick Rubin and Russell Simmons. Understanding the first 25 years in the label and how it came to be one of the powerful labels in Hip-Hop.<-----A must buy.

“This is the story of Def Jam in the words of its artists and top executives, taken from interviews and seamlessly told as a narrative of no-holds barred recollections and anecdotes, made even more compelling by the fact that Def Jam is one of the last great record labels to enjoy the widespread cultural influence that it does, in light of the increasing digitization of music. Def Jam celebrates a label that defined hip-hop and whose impact extends beyond its incredible roster of recording artists to all areas of culture–fashion, lifestyle, cinema, art–impacting the music business and pop culture forever.”

Hip Hop mogul Diddy has finally settled all civil actions against him from the Shyne shooting incident in Club New York back in 1999.

According to the New York Post, the exact terms of the settlements were undisclosed, but former Club New York owner Michael Bergos did not sign a confidentiality agreement, so he was able to put people on to what the settlement consisted of, saying the most seriously injured victim was paid $1.8 million. The two other victims of the shooting were paid $500,000 and $50,000. DAMN! It's all good that's something light to Diddy. *shrugs*

For those who don't get out, and is not familiar with what happened...I got you. ------>PAY ATTENTION:

Diddy and Jennifer Lopez, plus Shyne Shyne and their bodyguard hit the club to celebrate the recent signing of Shyne to Bad Boy Records.


The celebration went all the way wrong when Diddy’s crew got into an altercation with a club-goer, which in turn caused Shyne to pull out his gun and start firing shots into the crowd.

Shyne was then convicted of shooting two bystanders, causing him to serve a 9 year bid in prison.

Singer/Actor Usher wants Pippa Middleton to be the face of his lingerie line. Usher who's 32ys old, is releasing his first lingerie line this summer and hopes Pippa will be the face of his sexy underwear line.

By saying as he's speaking about the Middleton chick, "I don't think there's a more beautiful, more stunning, more talked-about woman in the world at the moment," I'm going to be approaching her in the next few weeks and setting up a meeting this summer."

According to the singer, hiring the famous Brit is also a smart business move. "The great thing about her is that she would be a global brand. Everybody knows her now, she would be perfect," he tells Britain's Look magazine (via Pop Eater). "I am sure everybody is trying to sign her up and she won't be cheap, but she has the looks and the popularity to really establish a new product." <------I agree. This goes way far beyond shorty's beauty.

Yay or Nay? You be the judge...

OK - so some people are fortunate enough to go through life without the trouble of suffering from a break up, but some are not. I'll spill the secrets of women, and why the pursuer/distance thing is the way to go.

It is not attractive to have someone begging you to come back to them. Imagine if you met someone at a party for the first time, and they were really sad and saying "Please go out with me" - not attractive at all.

Most men fail to realise that their relationship has ended. They still behave as if they are a couple when their girlfriend has split up with them. This is usually because it is a "surprise". What you need to realise is that your girlfriend has been thinking about this for AGES. She hasn't suddenly broken up with you, she has thought about it in private, and probably done a lot of crying and emotional stuff behind your back. Whatever the situation - your relationship has changed completely - so don't act like nothing is wrong.

POINT 1: YOU MUST ACCEPT THAT YOUR RELATIONSHIP IS OVER.

Once you have realised this - you can start to behave like yourself again. Go to the gym, do something new, get off your ass and stop feeling sorry for yourself. Sure it hurts sometimes, and you can cry in your bedroom until your eyes look like footballs, but to the outside world you need to be strong and in control. If a woman walks away, and sees you crumble, she'll walk away for good. Be strong. Start to realise that you are a GREAT CATCH. She would be damned lucky to have you. Stand tall. Be independent.

POINT 2: TRY TO STAY AWAY FROM YOUR EX FOR A WHILE, HANGING OUT AS "FRIENDS" MERELY CONFUSES YOU AND PROLONGS THE PAIN.

If a relationship is supposed to work out, it will. If you were made for each other, a few months apart will not kill your love. However, a few months apart will kill HABIT. If you think about her all the time, go to places hoping to see her, send her texts and emails and letters, you are not allowing your mind to move on. The sooner that you get over the emotion of it all, the sooner you can move on or get back together. You can't get back together successfully while you have a bleeding heart. Take some time out - heal yourself.

POINT 3: IF YOU HAVE TO SEE YOUR EX BECAUSE OF CIRCUMSTANCES.

Don't call her, and when you do talk, don't talk about how you broke up and miss her. If she steers the conversation onto that topic, say "Well, I tried to save it, but I guess it's too late now. Did you see ER last night? . .blah". Let her do the calling and running. Always let her know that you are glad she called. and that it was nice to speak to her, but don't pursue.

POINT 4: WHAT DO YOU WANT ?

Do you want her back? Or do you want what she used to be back. Remember that she will never be the sweet girl that you first met. She will always be the girls that dumped you (and did whatever else). Long term, can you live with this? Will you trust her again? If she comes home at 3am will you be worried? Remember that there are plenty more fish in the sea, and you can be just as happy with another person (who will not have all the baggage of the breakup).

You need to move on and can survive without her. When she tells you that "You never call and obviously don't care" - tell her that you do care, but need to get on with life and find someone who loves you and is prepared to stand by you.

DON'T DON'T DON'T chase her. You will never get her back. Be strong and you might get her back. If you do the things that I have said two things may happen :

1) You become a much stronger person, more attractive to your EX, and you get back together. But realise that you have to stay as this "stronger person" to keep her interested. If you go back to being the way you were she may well leave again.

2) She doesn't come back, but your head is in a better place and you are not so sad anymore. You'll meet someone else. Be yourself, and see if it works out. Find someone who loves you for who you are.

Thanks Burro!!!

Lil Wayne reveals in the latest issue of XXL that his long-awaited "Tha Carter 4" album just may be his last. Wanting to spend more time with his family. Weezy says that he is looking to quit while he's still the hottest rapper in the game. <------ Really? *shrugs*

“I’m bowing out still on top,” he says. “I’ma make y’all want me when I retire. I’ma make y’all be like, ‘Nooo!’ I ain’t leaving out this bitch when y’all be like, ‘Yeah, it’s about time, dawg.’ Carter IV might be my last one. I’ma make y’all be like, ‘Fuck!’ Yeah, nigga, I’m gone.”

“Honestly, this is the real truth,” he says. “I honestly think it’s unfair to my kids. I’m super dedicated into what I do. Like, it’s no questions it’s hands down, I do this. I live this. I don’t have a day out my week that I do something else. I do this every day of my life, and I’m not about to stop, ’cause that’s the only way you can succeed in this business, is to do it the way I do it. I want to succeed the way I want to succeed. You can succeed. You can put out a hit… But to do it the way I want to do it, to be comfortable to do what the fuck I want to do, you’ve got to work like no other. Like I said, it’s unfair to my kids. So about 30, 31, 32, I gotta get ready.”

Jimmy “Henchmen” Rosemond was taken into custody yesterday on June 21st in NYC by agents of the DEA. <----- Crazy b. SMFH. Jimmy was wanted by the Feds in connection to a cocaine trafficking network.

The New York Post gave details of  how the arrest went down: Read on ----->

“The hip-hop mogul spotted the agents at about noon as he walked out of the W Hotel in Union Square, sources said. Once on the street, Rosemond walked north and tried to outrun the agents until he was finally arrested on 21st Street and Park Avenue South.

The US Attorney’s Office in Brooklyn charged Rosemond in a complaint today with orchestrating the delivery of multiple kilos of cocaine from Los Angeles to the New York City metropolitan area. Millions of dollars in drug proceeds went from New York back to California, the complaint charged.”

A report by Reuters says Henchmen may be facing some very stiff sentencing.

“Rosemond, 46, the CEO and co-founder of Czar Entertainment, is scheduled to make his initial appearance in Brooklyn federal court, following his arrest Tuesday morning by U.S. Marshals and agents from the Drug Enforcement Agency. He faces a maximum sentence of life in prison if convicted on the charges, according to federal prosecutors.”

Kim Crawford who's only 21yrs old, beat her 5yr old son to death because he broke the television while playing Nintendo Wii. Telling the cops she smacked Jamar Johnson in his back and stomach on June 13 “harder than I’ve ever hit him.”  The stupid bitch watched her son vomit and complain of agonizing pain for five days as his internal injuries got worse. She never took him to the hospital because she feared getting arrested. <-----SMFH at this bitch.

Lil man Jamar died of an infection to his lacerated pancreas and intestine at Montefiore Medical Center late Friday. Prosecutors charged the worthless mother with murder and manslaughter. She was ordered held without bond.

Kim's lawyer, Camille Abate, said she should not have been charged with murder. <----huh? What planet are you living on right now? FUKKOUTTA HERE.

“The facts do not establish at all that this mother tried to kill her child,” Abate said. “I have no idea whether hitting someone with their hand causes these kinds of injuries. It’s clear that for two days she was worked over by police.”

Jamar’s family called his death “inexcusable.”

“Whether or not she did it on purpose doesn’t matter, because my beautiful grandson is gone and he’s not coming back,” said Betsy Johnson, the boys nana. “It’s a tragedy. It’s inexcusable.”

This is so damn sad. My heart goes out to the family. Someone like that doesn't need to a parent. SMFH.

Apparently, she had plowed her Mercedes into a tree that had fallen into the road during a recent storm.
When cops arrived, Nivea had “bloodshot, glassy eyes and smelled like alcohol.” Nivea told police she only had three drinks earlier in the evening.

Nivea was then arrested on suspicion of DUI and reckless driving. The child in the car was unharmed and had no signs of injuries and was released to Nivea’s boyfriend.

The Queens rapper has signed a deal with the Penguin Young Reader Group to publish a fictional book with an anti-bullying message called Playground.  The book is said to be released in January of next year.

50 Cent has stated in a statement earlier this week. "I had a strong desire to write Playground because I wanted to explore how a kid becomes a bully,”

“I drew on events from my own childhood and adolescence, but was equally excited to see the story take on its own life.”

“This book would have been very helpful for me growing up and now that I have a teenage son, it is my goal that this will have a positive influence on all teenagers.”

Shame on you ------>Francine Davis who abandoned her kids to go chill with her boyfriend. This bitch don't deserve to be a mother. There's women out there who can't have kids and will do just about anything to conceive, and this 40 yr old "can't get right" has two. If it wasn't for the two teenage girls who

saved the day by coming to the naked dirty, starving kids rescue, no telling what would of happened to them. Real talk. SMFH....

"They were running up and down the road- no clothes on," said Nilaja Wyatt, 17. She decided to take control of the situation after her friend Aaliyah Glover said her mother almost ran over one of the kids.

"We saw a little boy -- he ran in front of our car so my mother had to swerve her car," Aaliyah Glover said.

The teens gathered the six children and brought them inside. That's when they found out the kids' 2-year-old brother was in the upstairs apartment all by himself. The door was locked, so they broke in.

"He was crying," Wyatt said. "He had a snotty nose, everything, crying standing by the door."

They said there was no food in the apartment.

"They were hungry," Glover said. "We asked them did they eat, he said he didn't eat in two days."

So the teens fed and bathed the children and waited for their mom, who was out with a boyfriend, to come home. She never did, so they called the cops.

Police Chief Tom Comey said Francine Davis, 40, had left the children in the care of their oldest sibling, a 14-year-old autistic child. He said Davis had nothing to say when she turned herself in.

"You left your children in the care of somebody who wasn't emotionally or mentally capable," Comey said. "What can you say? There's nothing you can say that can ease that."

Now these teens are being called heroes.

"I felt like if I was in their situation in their shoes, I would want someone to help me," Glover said.

Davis is facing six counts of endangering the welfare of a child. The children are now in foster care.

Tupac Amaru Shakur – June 16, 1971 – September 13, 1996

It's crazy how this one dude may have solved what's to be the most unsolved murder cases of today. Dexter Isaac, a suspect in the 1994 shooting and robbery of Tupac at Quad Studios, has confessed to the crime. Also saying that Jimmy Henchmen paid him $2500 to do the robbery, and he says he still has the chain he took from Tupac as proof. SMFH...Isaacs, who is now serving a life sentence for unrelated crimes, admitted to the shooting in a statement released today in response to a previous statement made by Henchmen following his recent indictment on drug charges. The most interesting thing about Isaac’s statement though is that he promises to bring closure to both ‘Pac and Biggie’s mothers “at a different time”. Then he chastises Henchmen and Puff for trying to “come off all innocent-like” and asks Henchmen whether or not he’s going to flip on Puff when the Fed’s finally catch up to him. Isaac, who feels that Henchmen threw him under the bus after he sat in prison and kept his mouth shut for 13 years, clearly has some damning information and seems like he’s ready to share everything.

Coco spoke about Nicki Minaj's ass as she speaks with celebrity blogger Perez Hilton.

Quote: "Well, I read that it wasn't," Coco said when asked if she thought Minaj's backside was real. "Yeah, I thought she came out with it. I heard it from her. Yeah. OK, I've known -- I don't know. We're not even going to go there anymore. Scandal? Right? [laughs] And you know, I say about a lot of stylists, that work with me, and a lot of hair and makeup, they work with me. They touch my body, they're doing stuff all day long. So they're doing that same thing to Nicki Minaj. And they're saying it's a little bit different." (Perez Hilton)

Earlier this month, Coco shared her opinion on butt implants.

Quote: "I'm not against plastic surgery but me going through surgery, I know what it feels like. And I'm kind of against the fact that you should get butt implants because one thing that you're missing out here, is that when you have boobs, you're not sitting on you boobs 24-7, when you get butt implants, you're sitting on your butt for most of the day. You have to think about that. I'm so worried about how I move my boobs here and there. I have to wear a sports bra when I go to the gym. You can't jiggle all the time, you might jiggle them out of place. Think about that as far as the butt thing goes because they may jiggle out of place and you might not be able to fix it. I hear some really horror stories about the booty thing and I know I might sound hypocritical to do your boobs and not your butt. But, it's so unnatural. I mean you're not touching the chest area all that much, you're not walking all on the chest area all that much. You do a lot with the butt." (VIBE)

Minaj recently discussed fans' infatuations with her booty.

Quote: "I don't mind the question, I don't mind the fascination. It's all good," she said. "I've said this before. It doesn't define me, so I try my best not to focus my energy on it. Like if you guys focus energy on it, I don't mind it. if people are sitting in a barbershop talking about my butt, it's conversational. That's what people are going to do. As long as they're talking about Nicki Minaj, it's good." ("Full Throttle")

Last year, Minaj denied speculation claiming she used butt pads.

Quote: Nicki Minaj doesn't have much time for her detractors, including those who recently set the Web ablaze with speculation about whether her assets had been enhanced with "butt pads." Did it bother her? "Absolutely not!" the Queens-bred rapper and Lil Wayne protg says with a laugh. "People will pick anything to talk about, and that happens to be the thing at the moment. I love being a conversation piece." (New York Post)

Making things easier for lesbian and gay people who come to this country "The Land of The Free" to seek asylum in America, are investing $250,000 to start making a difference. <-----That's what's up.

 HHS announced earlier today that there's a new contract with the Heartland Alliance of Chicago to create a first-ever resource center for LGBT refugees. The new program is part of the Obama administration’s belief that “comprehensive human rights include the elimination of violence and discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity,” <-----coming from David Hansell, assistant secretary for the Administration for Children and Families, a division of HHS.

LGBT refugees needed special attention that differed from others, according to the government’s Office of Refugee Resettlement.

Here's what ORR Director Eskinder Negash had to say, “The current resettlement network has limited understanding of the LGBT community,” said ORR Director Eskinder Negash in a statement. “No information exists in the context of available resource materials specifically for LGBT refugees. The need for these services is critical to ensure their successful resettlement in the U.S.”

AYE!!!
