Wayne on Jay-z and The ‘Old Guys’
There’s no competition [with any artists]. Music isn’t about competition no more. All the gangster rappers are happy, all the skateboard rappers are happy, all the white rappers are happy… Everybody just happy to do music these days. There are no problems. That sh*t died a long time ago with them old-ass rappers. We are just making music, making money and having fun feeding our families. Competition is for the old guys.

Rihanna Kicked Off Farmer's Land While Shooting Video

Photobucket
Yesterday, Rihanna was spotted shooting her brand new video 'We Found Love' in Bangor, Country Down Belfest. She held a cigarette top her mouth while wearing a see-through crop top which appeared to be a bit too much for the farmer that granted her permission to use his land for the shoot. The farmer glanced over at Ri Ri while fetching his tractor and immediately requested her to cover up or stop filming the video.

"I requested them to stop filming and they did,’ he said. ‘I had my conversation with Rihanna and I hope she understands where I’m coming from. We shook hands. I didn’t know who was coming. If the name Rihanna had been mentioned, well no disrespect but it wouldn’t have meant anything. From my point of view, it was my land, I have an ethos and I felt it was inappropriate. I wish no ill will against Rihanna and her friends. Perhaps they could acquaint themselves with a greater God."

J. Cole Covers Rolling Out & Talks Jay-Z, Rihanna Rumors

Photobucket
J. Cole covers the latest issue of Rolling Out magazine. Inside, he speaks on his first encounter with Jay-Z, sex tape rumors with Rihanna, and trying to pursue a basketball career.


On his first encounter with Jay-Z
I heard that Jay-Zwas recording the American Gangster album. That same night, I made two beats and I thought it would be perfect for Jay-Z. I went to the studio where Jay-Z was recording and I waited outside for three hours. His Phantom finally pulled up. I was super timid and shy. I had the CD in my hand and I tried to hand it to Jay-Z. He looked at it and said, ‘What is this? I don’t want that. Give it to one of those other guys.’ It was crushing. That was another moment. But I snapped back to reality. I knew after that, I had to go harder. That type of rejection fuels me. I believe that greatness is fueled by rejection. Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team; Jay-Z had trouble getting a record deal before Reasonable Doubt; and no one wanted to sign Kanye West as a rapper.

Beyonce's New Pulse Fragrance

Photobucket
Last night, Beyonce launched a follow up of her Heat and Heat Rush fragrance. Pulse has more of a citrus, floral scent that's equivalent to the smell of her favorite flower, the orchid. Bey chose to dress her baby bump in a blue dress and blazer to match her Eau de perfum bottle which is designed to look as if it's turned upside down.

"The success of Heat was amazing, but why not represent a different side of a woman? Pulse represents the woman I am on stage. When I think about excitement, it makes me think about my heart racing and a pulsating beat —it’s my stage persona. Heat represents my sensual side, it’s very spicy and Southern. Heat Rush is more about the woman I am on my off time, when I’m on vacation."

RIP Troy Davis: A Letter From Troy Davis

Even though he had millions of supporters that called, wrote, and petitioned, death row inmate Troy Davis was executed last night at 11:08 pm. The highly controversial case that includes the shooting of a police officer that was off duty at the time brought on a lot of attention, due to the fact that the condemnation was centered around a witness testimony, one that stated they were forced by police to accuse Troy Davis. His supporters was hopeful when the execution was delayed for three hours but after Troy's life was taken away, there was a doleful tone. His last hopeful words regarding case and execution below.


To All:

I want to thank all of you for your efforts and dedication to Human Rights and Human Kindness, in the past year I have experienced such emotion, joy, sadness and never ending faith. It is because of all of you that I am alive today, as I look at my sister Martina I am marveled by the love she has for me and of course I worry about her and her health, but as she tells me she is the eldest and she will not back down from this fight to save my life and prove to the world that I am innocent of this terrible crime.

He’s a sober guy, he has a drink every once in a while, but seeing how he throws himself into the studio when he’s stressing about something, I totally admire that.

Swizz Beatz Fathers Child With Russian Singer

Hit Producer Swizz Beatz comes to an agreement with a women in UK, who he had a 'love child' with. In 2009, Swizz and Alicia Keys (who is now his wife) flew out to London to take a paternity test in which later determined that he is indeed the father of Russian singer Zhanna Andrianova's now 3 year old daughter. Swizz and Zhanna met back in 2007 in a club and their daughter was born in 2008. Since then, they were battling it out in court for child support that was delayed beacause Zhanna didn't have a Visa to come to America for court appearances and because she refused to accept a settlement a year ago. The terms for the out-of-court settlement including her $42,000 legal fees were disclosed.
