Lil Wayne nabs the cover for Vibe's October/November issue
Weezy channeled Jimi Hendrix by dressing up as the legendary guitarist for the shoot.
Although the Young Money rapper took shots at Jay-Z on his latest album, Tha Carter IV, Wayne insists he has no real issues with anyone.
"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," Weezy told Vibe via MTV News. "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."
Wayne also insists he doesn't feel pressured by, and isn't jealous of Drake's success.
"I don't look at it like that. Drake is my artist. If he wasn't my artist, then yeah maybe," Wayne said. "But that's my artist. He's not [just] a friend. We're more than friends. It's business. It would be impossible for it to be a competition. I mean, I'm the guy's boss."

Kid Cudi visited Conan O'Brien's show yesterday with tales of male groupies kissing him onstage and rocking his new Nike Mag sneakers.
The singer/rapper/actor was promoting the new season of How to Make It in America, which starts this Sunday on HBO.
Right off the bat Conan wanted to know how Cudi got his hands on a pair of the Nike Mag sneakers when only 1500 of the Back To the Future themed kicks were made.
"EBay," Cudi said. "I didn't have an eBay account before then and I just made one up and jumped on as soon as I heard. Technically I got five pair because I got my girlfriend a pair. I didn't want her made at me, so I got four for myself and one for her."
Cudi gives Conan a leather jacket he designed with Surface to Air, and also talked the weird incident at an L.A. concert when a male fan jumped onstage and kissed him in the mouth.

When Styles P decided to name his new album Master of Ceremonies, he didn't realize the title might confuse some fans.
"It's funny because I said I was the master of ceremonies, and I got a tweet 'damn Styles you down with the illuminati now?' And I laughed but I was sad at the same time because to them a master of ceremony sounded like some kind of illuminati term. I'm an MC, do your homework, this is where we come from," Styles told MTV's Sway.
Peniro went on to break down what it means to be an MC.
"That means I'm the MC for the night," Styles said. "When I speak I'm controlling the room. I'm the mic controller, I'm here to move the crowd. I'm here to talk for you to hear clearly what I'm saying. In hip-hop I think a lot of us have forgotten about MCing. Originally in hip-hop the DJ was the big thing. And as an MC you were kind of holding it down for the DJ and what he was doing. As time passed the MC became more popular," SP explained. "It's your job to talk to the crowd. And for me to give you something you can listen to, take home, or hear. At the end of the day I have to be saying something slick, or knowledgeable, or even hard, but I want you to go home and be like 'wow!'"

The film “will delve deep into the life and storied exploits of the Death Row Records co-founder as well as the volatile and highly influential era in music that he presided over."
Showtime promises Knight will “personally reveal exactly how it all happened, why it all fell apart, and what the next chapter holds for one of America’s most iconic and mythologized figures.”
"Suge Knight’s reputation and rise to power in the music business has become the stuff of legend,” said producer Bradley J. Fischer told CNN. “Antoine Fuqua and I are thrilled to be partnering with Showtime to tell this remarkable story and take audiences behind a curtain that most have been terrified to even approach.”
Knight will also be producing the soundtrack through his new company, Black Kapital.
No release date information is available yet.

Machine Gun Kelly may be a relative newcomer to the hip-hop community, but the Cleveland rapper does not lack in the confidence department.
With his Lace Up movement spreading across the country and a new contract from Bad Boy Records in his back pocket, MGK is making moves.
He already has an artist in mind if he were to ever drop a collaborative album.

Ice Cube is preparing to produce a new film about N.W.A., the legendary West Coast group he played an integral role in.
There's a strong possibility Cube will be reuniting with Boyz N the Hood director John Singleton for the project. Singleton told The Playlist that he and Cube have been in discussions.
“I can’t talk about it too prematurely about the stuff I’m doing because nothing’s come to fruition yet, but Cube and I are talking about doing the N.W.A. story,” Singleton said. “The script is really, really good, and so we’re just figuring it out. New Line really wants to make it.”
The role of the late Eazy E could wind up being played by the late rapper's son Eric Wright Jr. aka Lil' Eazy E. He told TMZ that he is the "perfect man for the role" and that there was a "high probability" he'll portray his father in the film.
"Who better to play him in the N.W.A. days?" Lil' Eazy said. "Like father, like son -- no makeup needed."
Consisting of Ice Cube, Dr. Dre, MC Ren, Eazy E and DJ Yella, N.W.A. is considered to be one the the pioneers of gangsta rap.
Rolling Stone ranks them 83rd on their list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.
