Sean Price drops another music video off of his ill Mic Tyson album. The latest song to get the visual treatment is "Genesis of the Omega."
In Sean Price's words, "The Genesis of the Omega sounded better than the start of the ending. I was trying to be slick with the words. The Genesis, you know that's the beginning of The Bible. The Omega, that's the end. On some punk sh*t...I read too many comic books."

Juelz Santana and Lloyd Banks have demostrated they have great chemistry when they collaborate as shown on the 2010 smash hit single "Beamer, Benz or Bentley," off of Banks' third solo album, H.F.M. 2. (Hunger For More 2).
The two have gotten back in the lab recently to record songs for Juelz's new God Will'n mixtape and an upcoming Banks project. In a new interview with MTV, Juelz hinted that the two could possibly link up for a joint mixtape.
"Me and Banks are definitely cool enough to do that," Juelz said. "Me and Banks are cool not even on the music tip, like Banks comes to my house to light up a brown cigarette and things of that nature."

It seems like almost every week there is some kind of feud jumping off on Twitter. Whether it's artists going at each other or even fans popping off to stars, the social networking site has increasingly become a place where people end up in verbal wars.
50 Cent has a simple answer when it comes to people talking trash via Twitter. He thinks a lot of them become internet gangsters, hiding behind their keyboards to mask real life insecurities.
"When you're an artist and have an aggressive aura to you, people are urged to be aggressive enough to say something to you," 50 told SOHH, "And at that particular point, it's the only place that they could. They couldn't say it to you face-to-face because they'd end up in an awkward situation, like standing upside down on their head. [laughs] They're not [brave enough] to say it face-to-face, they're not strong enough to say the things they'd want to say to you and it's why they're on Twitter."
What do you think about what 50 has to say about these new age Twitter e-thugs?

Rihanna just might be the hardest working woman in show business. The Def Jam superstar has released seven albums since 2005, and all have done well.
To honor the 24-year old beauty from Barbados, Complex has decided to give her seven different covers for their February/March issue. One for each of the albums she has released.
Check out an excerpt from her cover story, as well as the great looking covers below.
Written by Soo-Young Kim (@sooeypooey); Photography by Zoe McConnell (@ZOEMCCONNELL) for Complex.
Rihanna’s moving forkfuls of calamaretti fritti onto her plate at celebrity hot-spot Giorgio Baldi, her favorite restaurant in Santa Monica. Even when she’s eating, her posture stays upright like a ballerina, long and graceful. In between bites, she explains how to take a flattering selfie for Instagram. “Get a good light,” she says, adjusting the Prada Minimal Baroque glasses on the bridge of her nose. Her heavy gold necklace slinks around the front of her black adidas sweatshirt as she turns to order spaghetti semplice from the server. “Get a good angle on what’s working for you that day,” she says with a laugh. Rihanna enunciates every word and hits every consonant, her hands dancing as she talks. “If it’s boobs, make sure you hit that. If it’s face, make sure it’s fierce.”
Today’s a good face day for the 24-year-old singer. After putting in work all week in L.A., including a signing for her new perfume, Nude, a photo shoot for a new clothing collaboration with River Island, and plenty of promo for the Grammy Awards, she’d love a chance to catch her breath. But alas, the life of the third-highest-earning celebrity under 30 offers no breaks. She says she spent the day packing for tonight’s flight to Switzerland.
Rihanna may be tired, but she’s always ready for a close-up. She holds the phone just so to capture her stony demeanor in the small square frame. Slick specs, diamond studs, Cuban links. She selects Inkwell. The black-and-white filter applies a grainy texture to the photo, giving it a rugged feel. This is the mood she wants to display: no smiles. She taps her touch screen and shares the image with @badgalriri’s 4.3 million followers.
Since opening her Instagram account last March, with a selfie of her blowing smoke, Rihanna has posted more than 230 self portraits. “It’s narcissistic, but whatever—everyone does it,” she says. “I’m capturing personality... Everybody has their thing they like or don’t like to see. It’s all in your head. That’s why people take their own pictures, because it’s difficult for someone else to capture what you seek.”
Rihanna is photographed regularly, whether for magazine spreads, album covers, or by the paparazzi. But when it comes to self-portraits, she’s the one in control. She projects the image of someone who doesn’t care what people think, but she's come too far to leave her image to chance. Moving 26 million albums and 45 million singles worldwide has earned her a lot of money—an estimated $53 million last year. It’s also afforded her the freedom to be as wild as she wants to be. Although it’s useful to have a direct channel to reach her fans, social media has been a blessing and a curse.
Some of Rihanna’s more buzzed-about selfies are the ones she takes topless (with arms strategically placed over her chest) or with a blunt between her fingers. And then there is the semi-nude shot she posted in December with the caption, “Who needs fashion when there’s pu$$y.” Provocative, even illicit, these are not the kinds of images a publicist would greenlight. In fact, they may have cost Rihanna her Nivea endorsement. The skincare company broke ties with her last August, explaining that she did not embody their image of “trust, family, and reliability.”
Even more controversial are the shots she posts of herself and Chris Brown, the pop-star boyfriend she broke up with after he assaulted her in February 2009—when he was 19 and she was 21. Despite a stay-away order issued by the Los Angeles Superior Court, the two have remained close friends. The exact status of their relationship remains unknown, but the takeaway from social media has been that they are hooking up again.
The couple became the talk of gossip blogs last June when Brown and Drake got into a fight over her at W.i.P., a club in NYC. In August, Rihanna told Oprah in an interview that she and Brown were “very, very close friends.” In September, they greeted each other with a brief hug and kiss at the MTV Video Music Awards. At the time Brown was dating model Karrueche Tran. In early October, Brown and Rihanna were spotted at various New York clubs and photographed together at a Jay-Z show. The next day, Brown released a statement: “I have decided to be single to focus on my career. I love Karrueche very much but I don’t want to see her hurt over my friendship with Rihanna.” He then released a video in which he asked, “Is there such thing as loving two people?” By the end of October, Rihanna was using Instagram to send subtle signs that she and Brown were growing closer. First she posted a shot of herself wearing sweatpants by Black Pyramid, Brown’s streetwear brand. Later that month she uploaded a photo of herself with a “miss you!” caption and, that same day, reposted a still from Brown’s latest music video.
According to a Department of Justice study, roughly 1.3 million American women are abused by their husbands or boyfriends each year, and one in every four women are victims of domestic abuse at some time during their lives. Rihanna, as we all know, is one of those women—the most famous of them alive today. While many victims of abuse return to the men who abused them, almost none go through that painful process while being scrutinized in public by the world. No wonder Rihanna requires final say over what images she shares. “People take the little bit of information they’re fed, and they draw a picture of who you are,” she says. “Most of the time it’s wrong.”
When Rihanna first opened her Twitter account on October 2, 2009, it looked like any other official celebrity feed managed by a PR flack. This fueled speculation that she was just a pretty face whose every move was controlled by handlers. Around a year later, during the release of her fifth album, Loud, Rihanna got hip to the game. These days she doesn’t just send messages, she also reads her timeline, and she’s not afraid to fire back at critics. When she posted an Instagram shot of herself at last year’s Coachella Music Festival, sitting on her bodyguard’s shoulders and rolling a blunt on top of his head, MTV.com linked to the photos with a Tweet that said “Yikes.” Rihanna didn’t hesitate to tweet back that she “ran out of fucks to give.” That statement was retweeted over 13,000 times.
Rihanna’s not the first sexy young megastar with a hedonistic bent. Madonna did most of her dirt long before the Twitter era, but as Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan have learned, the Internet is a vicious place that can turn on you with the drop of a hashtag. Somehow Rihanna has found a way to weather all the negativity. The girl isn’t just thick-skinned, she’s fearless—and unashamed to put her business in front of 27 million followers. She makes it work for her. It isn’t enough to prove she’s not a manufactured pop star; Rihanna’s trying to be seen as the realest bitch in the game.
Last November 14, Rihanna emerged from the first-class section of her rented Boeing 777 jet carrying two gold bottles of Ace of Spades. “Champagne anyone?” she asked. A sea of hands stretched out plastic cups to receive tiny portions of the expensive Armand de Brignac brut. The first flight of the 777 Tour was off to an excellent start. Rihanna and her personal assistant, Jennifer Rosales, were only halfway done working the press aisles when the singer asked, “Where are all the fans at? I got to get back and see my fans.”
The 777 Tour—a seven-day, seven-country, seven-show journey—brought along 150 international journalists in addition to some contest winners and four die-hard members of the Rihanna Navy to party in the sky. Designed to kick-start promotions for Rihanna’s seventh album, Unapologetic, ahead of its November release, the tour devolved into a shitshow of delayed flights and acrimonious press relations. From the beginning it was clear which audience on the plane Rihanna was playing to.
Zipping past throngs of thirsty journalists, she headed straight to the back, where a group of her most trusted fans, Tamara Wray, La’Ashia Holmes, Janise Williams, and Johnny Marmolejos, were sitting. Rihanna said she hand-picked these four because, “They’re probably more like me than the rest of the world.” The photogs and writers had already finished their two sips of bubbly by the time Rihanna blessed the fans with a full bottle of the $300 champagne.
As the tour went on, the reporters got increasingly aggro, shoving cameras in Rihanna’s face. But the fans remained calm, confident that respecting her space now would mean spending more time with her later. “I guess we’re not like other fans,” said Tamara, a slim 20-year-old college student. Johnny, a husky 24-year-old server at T.G.I.Fridays, nodded in agreement: “You know—crying, screaming. Kind of like an attack thing.”
But crazy fans are nothing compared to frustrated bloggers. The tour rapidly became a publicity stunt gone wrong as journalists hoping for juicy stories got nary a quote. The blog posts grew snarkier with each passing day while Rihanna’s fans had the time of their lives.
Tyran “Ty Ty” Smith, a co-founder of Roc Nation, which has managed Rihanna since 2010, insists the tour was actually a big success, if only because the press needed to get an idea of what the young star’s life is really like. “It’s good that you guys got to see that it’s not all about champagne and bubbles and blunts,” he says. “She’s working really, really hard.”
Well, maybe just a few bubbles and blunts. After the Toronto stop on November 15, Rihanna’s creative director Ciarra Pardo posted a picture of the young star topless, scattered with flower petals, money covering her eyes, and smoke leaking from her mouth.
In retrospect, Rihanna kept it real throughout the tour. If you stayed home and followed her social media, you had as much access to her as the folks who had to wait on the tarmac for four hours while she finished shopping in Paris.

Coco can't be happy today after new pics of men grabbing her butt have hit the net. Last month compromising photos of Ice-T's wife hugged up with rapper AP.9 emerged.
At the time Ice reacted angrily via Twitter. Coco later apologized and the couple renewed their wedding vows on New Year's Eve.
Today a new photo of AP.9 with Coco has emerged. Again, they appear to be more than just friends.
“I took Coco out on a date to Haze nightclub. She brought some friends…some of the crew from Ice Loves Coco even showed up too! We had a steamy one night stand. I hate being called a liar…cuz I’m not," AP told Jacky Jasper.
To make matters worse another scandalous photo of Coco with Mustafa Abdi, a.k.a. Moose Diesel, the former manager of ARIA Resort & Casino’s Haze Nightclub has emerged.
Coco asked Abdi to remove the pic, but he refused.
According to Jacky Jasper there are three more pics along with a polygraph test being shopped to various media outlets by AP.
At this point Ice T has to be wondering just how far Coco has gone and what else will happen next.

It's been twenty years since the release of the hood classic Menace II Society. Director Allen Hughes recently sat down with with Sway In the Morning to talk about the film.
One of the most talked about incidents surrounding the making of the film involved Tupac Shakur. He was originally cast in the movie to play the role of Sharif. A rift developed on the set between Tupac and the Hughes brothers. They eventually fired him. Pac was so angry he later physically assaulted them.
The Hughes brothers filed charges against him and he ended up serving 15 days in jail for the assault.
Allen talks to Sway about how he initially met Tupac, the change he saw in him after he played the role of Bishop in Juice and Pac's erratic behavior on the set of Menace II Society.

**UPDATE** January 14th.
Over the weekend we got the first part of Allen Hughes' story about his relationship with Tupac Shakur and the beginning of their fall out.
Today Sway releases the full interview where Hughes talks about Tupac getting fired from his role in Menace II Society and Tupac later having 12-13 members of The Rolling 40's crips jump him.
According to Hughes the fight started off between just himself and Tupac. He claims that he lifted Pac over his head and slammed him down on the trunk of a truck. As he was getting ready to punch Tupac, The Rolling 40's molly whopped him.
Hughes later acknowledges Tupac's immense talent.
"The tragedy is he was just a rock star," Hughes said. "He was just that talented and more talented than we ever got to see. In fact the thing I tell people is most people don't know is he was dummying himself down for his rap verses. He was making it more simple Simon so people could understand it and connect to it. He was vastly more intelligent than his rhymes or his music. He was a voracious reader. He was a sweet, sweet kind man. He was multi-talented we know that. He had a humongous heart. And the thing with him, like a lot of young black males he had mad daddy issues. I got them that's why we connected. I feel like we lost someone bigger than Marilyn Monroe or James Dean."
Hughes also criticizes Quentin Tarantino for his excessive use of the word "n*gger" in his movies.
The story picks up at the 15-minute mark of the video below.

Justin Timberlake has announced the title of his third studio album via an open letter to his fans. The 20/20 Experience will be released later this year on RCA Records. It will be produced entirely by Timbaland.
The lead single is "Suit & Tie" featuring Jay-Z.
JT's last album was 2006's four-times platinum FutureSex/LoveSounds.
Check out Justin's full open letter below.
An Open Letter to you (the fans):
I hope this gets to you the right way. It’s the only way I know to do it. Some people may criticize me for the last 3 days. But it was fun, right?? Right?!?! Besides, I’d rather speak directly to all of you. And, who can knock me for having a little bit of fun with it?
Well… No more teasing. Although, it was A LOT of fun. (Did I mention that I’m having fun with this?? Ha!)
*Makes a serious face*
So, here goes:
This year is an exciting one for me. As you probably have heard through the “grapevine,” I’m gearing up for a big 2013.
Back in June of last year, I quietly started working on what is now, my next journey with that thing I love called MUSIC.
The inspiration for this really came out of the blue and to be honest, I didn’t expect anything out of it. I just went into the studio and started playing around with some sounds and songs. It was probably the best time I’ve had in my career… Just creating with no rules and/or end goal in mind and really enjoying the process.
What I came up with is something I couldn’t be more excited about! It is full of inspiration that I grew up listening to and some newfound muses that I’ve discovered along the way.
I’m calling it “The 20/20 Experience,” and it’s coming out this year.
I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed making it.
That’s all I’m giving you for now… I know, I know! Again, with the teasing!!!
Get ready. This is going to be fun (well, at least it is for me).
- Justin
