50 Cent loves to remix other rappers' cuts. DX's own Michael Trampe grabs 20 of the top remixes that 50 Cent has made better than the original.

“In the Summer time it’s killing season, it’s hot out this bitch that’s a good enough reason” – 50 Cent on “Heat”

Summer time is here and the G-Unit General is turning up the heat! 

50 Cent recently dropped Animal Ambition, reunited with his G-Unit la familia at Summer Jam 2014 and locked in a release date for Street King Immortal.

Say what you want to about 50 Cent, but he has been creating his own lane in the music industry for years. Rewind back to the late '90s and early '00s and you won’t find a beat Fif didn’t touch. Not only did he remix the majority of your favorite Hip Hop joints, he did it better than the original artist. To show our love and appreciation for the Southside Jamaica, Queens emcee, we have put together some of the best 50 Cent Remixes that are as good as the original (or better).

In April it will be two decades since Outkast first blew our minds with their debut album, Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik.

 

Fans were already thrilled to hear the duo of Big Boi and Andre 3000 would be headlining this year's Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. Now comes an announcement that the group will celebrate their 20th anniversary by performing at a total of 40 festivals throughout the spring and summer.

 

12350577284?profile=original

 

“It's truly an honor to celebrate 20 years and still be free to do music the way we choose,” said Big Boi. “Don't just think outside the box, know that there is no box. I'm looking forward to rocking the stage with my Bro Ski and to all the fans - stank you smelly much, this is for y'all!” 

 

12349030854?profile=original

 

"And imagine, all we wanted to do was rap! I am thankful to have been a part of a group that allowed me to explore anything that came to mind and have fun doing it. Returning to the stage together is the most exciting way for us to thank everyone for their 20 years of supporting Outkast,” said André 3000.

STAR talks producer Jazze Pha hugged up with a transsexual, Gucci Mane now facing 20-years on gun charges, the Best Man Holiday movie review and getting tuned-up in the 7th grade.

Radio legend Troi Torain (STAR) always delivers hard-hitting objective truth. As a culture critic he is vicious, as a businessman he is relentless, as a luminary he is un-matched.

 

12349990084?profile=original

Considered a radio pioneer by many, STAR has set precedents on the urban landscape and was recently inducted into News One's "Top 20 Black Radio Jockeys Of All Time."

STAR & BUC WILD made the national stage on MTV (1999) but it was their radio show on New York's Hot 97 and Power 105 (2000 - 2006) that secured their place in Hip-Hop history.

Torain's resume includes The Source magazine, MTV Networks, Hot 97, Power 104.1, Power 105.1, Pulse 87, Hip-Hop Weekly magazine, Vladtv, Thisis50, 100.3 The Beat, shot97.com and VH1 (The Gossip Game).

This clip is from STAR's LIVE show (12noon -- 2pm) on http://shot97.com.

Eminem continues to do amazing things on the charts. The Shady Records CEO has 4 songs off of The Marshall Mathers LP 2 currently in the top 20 on the Billboard Hot 100 list. He becomes the first lead artist since The Beatles landed 6 in the top 20 in 1964 to accomplish that feat.

 

The four singles are "The Monster" (No. 3), "Berzerk" (No. 15), "Survival" (No. 16) and "Rap God" (No. 17).

 

12350436675?profile=original

 

"The Monster" is also No. 1 on the Hot Hip-Hop/R&B list, giving the rapper his first ever chart topper in that category.

 

50 Cent, T-Pain, Ludacris and Lil Wayne have had four songs in the top 20 at the same time as well, but some of those hits were as featured artists.

I have always been a protector. It would be nothing for me to give my life for yours. I wouldn't think twice to do it.

Macklemore and Mac Miller have proven that in today's era of music you really don't need a major label to hit a home run with an album. Vlad TV caught up with producer/rapper Mannie Fresh to get his take on the two artists and where the industry is headed.

 

12350052091?profile=original

 

In Mannie's opinion the success of the two artists has nothing to do with them being white.

 

"It's showing that you don't really need the machine right now," Mannie said. "A lot of it has been like David Copperfield for like 10 years. It's a bunch of lies and b.s. that's been told to you to make somebody else money. A lot of dudes are proving that I don't need y'all. It's been that way for quite sometime. It was just a matter of who was brave enough to go through the door. I'd rather sell 10,000 records and get paid than have a million under my belt and not get nothing for them."

 

Mannie predicts that in 20 years there will be no labels.

Rob Kardashian and Rita Ora's relationship has come to an end after Rob sent out a series of angry tweets accusing his ex of cheating on him with 20 men.

 

12349702262?profile=original

 

Rob, brother of Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian and one of the stars of E!'s “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” reality show, reportedly broke up with Rita just several days before her birthday and today we found out why.

 

Soon after Rob began his tirade "Rita Whora" started trending worldwide.

 

I'm actually disgusted a woman could give up her body to more than 20 dudes in less than a year's time while trying to start a career," Rob wrote on the social networking site. "When a woman cheats on you with one man I can live with that. People make mistakes, trust me. I have forgiven numerous times. But when a woman disrespects herself by messing with more than 20 men all while being in a relationship with a Faithful man. I just don't get how a woman can do that to her body. And your career hasn't even launched yet. I don't put up with sloppiness. LOYALTY. This is a lesson to all the young women out there to not have unprotected sex with multiple men especially while in a relationship. RESPECT THY SELF!"

 

12349702075?profile=original

 

Somewhere Rita is probably hanging her head in shame, meanwhile Twitter is having a field day at her expense.

Back in July 50 Cent was asked about the possibility of Lloyd Banks signing to Def Jam. Fif responded by saying he didn't think it could happen because the company was having financial problems.

 

"Well, Def Jam, I'm not even sure what that system — that system is not in a good space right now. They're like $80 million in the hole...Don't tell them I told you," Fif said at the time.

Later that month The Wrap published an article detailing problems at both Motown and Def Jam. They indicated big changes were coming for both labels, and that Ethiopia Habtemariam would be tapped to run Motown.

Habtemariam (pictured below) was named Sr. Vice President of Motown last week.

 

12348969694?profile=original
Despite the rumors of financial problems, Island Def Jam CEO Barry Weiss, released a statement last month denying any such issues.

"I don't know what the f*ck they're talking about. Def Jam is not broke, it's on fire!," Weis said in an interview. "We just did a deal with Kanye's G.O.O.D. Music and Big Sean's album is a great success and will continue to garner a lot of attention. Kanye and Jay-Z's Watch The Throne has the whole world buzzing. Jeezy's got an album coming out and his show last night in NYC has the whole industry excited. Rihanna just ended her amazing tour of her amazing album. Frank Ocean is on the verge of super stardom. Rick Ross and so many other great artists are part of our incredible roster. Of course we are looking to maximize our potential and are in search of additional African-American leadership to take us to the next level. But, let me be clear, Def Jam is on fire."

That fire appears to be flickering right now as Def Jam just laid off over 20 staffers, along with industry executives Jonathan McHugh and Chris Hicks according to AllHipHop.

As further proof of a shake up Brandon Creed, has been named A&R consultant for both Island Def Jam and Universal Republic.

In a statement released today Weis, welcomed Creed to the team.

"As we continue to expand our creative investments, Brandon is a perfect fit. Besides being a great artists' manager, he is also a talented A&R and creative executive. We plan to get him very involved across our labels at Island Def Jam Motown and Universal Republic," Weis said.

12348853465?profile=originalA lot of people use a relatives, friends or even work addresses to send their kinds to schools in districts they are not zoned to. Most didn't know they could get arrested for it, face a long stretch in the pen and owe $15,000if caught.

The 15K is what it supposedly costs to school a child for a year.

That's what Tanya McDowell of Norwalk,Connecticut is dealing with today. To make matters worse she is homeless. Sometimes crashing at homeless shelters, her car or a friends couch. McDowell thought at least she had her son in a good school.

"I had no idea whatsoever that if you enroll your child in another school district, it becomes a crime," McDowell, 33 told the Stamford Advocate.

McDowell was charged last week with first-degree larceny and conspiracy to commit first-degree larceny for allegedly stealing $15,686 from Norwalk schools. She was released after posting a $25,000 bond.

The babysitter whose address was used to get McDowell's son into the new school was evicted from her Public Housing home.

"I know so many people who enroll in other school districts where the kids go home on the weekend to visit their parents so they can have a better education," McDowell says.

Norwalk Board of Education Vice Chairman, Glenn Iannaccone can't remember anyome ever being arrested for this.

"This is the first time I have heard something like this where there has been an arrest. Other allegations like this have been handled by the central office. I'm not sure if the police have been involved," Iannaccone told the CT Post. "Maybe this is the district's way of cracking down on this." 

What do you guys think about this case? What would you do to get your kid into a better school and should this be a crime?

As people try to make sense of why Jared Loughner went on a shooting rampage January 8, killing 6 and injuring 14, including congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, some have suggested that his use of the drug salvia may be to blame.

"He would say he was using it and he would talk about it and say what [it] would do to him and I was like, 'Dude that's screwed up,'" ax friend Jared Osler told ABC News.

While people that use the drug generally experience a high that usually only lasts 1-30 minutes, there are reports of severe mental breakdown caused by salvia.

Peter Przekop, an assistant professor of psychiatry at the Loma Linda University School of Medicine in California told the San Francisco Sentinal about a case he was involved in.

We had a case of a male who came in, 23 years old, and was actively psychotic. The only thing we could attach it to was the night before, he had smoked the XXX [high-strength] salvia." Przekop said "We stabilized him, put him on medication, transferred him to the psych department. When we tried to gradually wean him off antipsychotics, the symptoms returned. This was permanent psychosis we suspect was brought on by this drug.

 

12348757073?profile=originalSalvia divinorum

We posted a blog here several days ago that shows a guy trying salvia for the first time. He seemed to lose all sense of reality.

It’s one of the most behaviorally impairing drugs that we’ve come across,” says Matthew Johnson, assistant professor of psychology at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. “At the higher doses, people are completely dissociated from this reality… They describe being completely transported to another dimension.”

Danial Sebert, a pharmaceutical expert who grows, sells and uses the herb says it can be a "scary" experience, but when used properly the drug will give you insight.

"It's beneficial as a tool for introspection," Sebert says. "Sometimes I've taken salvia when I've had a difficult life situation dealing with a relationship problem, where I was uncertain what to do. And I've taken salvia and suddenly it's just like totally clear like why didn't I see this before?"

While people like Sebert may find salvia to be a helpful tool to help figure out life's problem's, it's possible it may have lead one man to murder 6 innocent people.

"The salvia did have a huge play in his mental psyche and the things that he thought, the side effect, the long term effects." says Osler

The wait wait is almost over, you can mark a date on your calender for the long awaited 'Detox' album.

Just Blaze uploaded a video via his Twitter account announcing Saigon's 'Greatest Story Never Told' drops February 15. He then turned the camera towards Dr Dre. "Pow Pow 4/20 baby... 4/20 I'm coming." Dre said

I got hyped, but then looked at my calender and saw that April 20 falls on a Wednesday. Not a likely day of the week for such a high profile release.

However 4/20 is also National Weed Day which would make perfect sense for the man who made "Chronic" a household name.

Either way, expect 'Detox' to drop sometime around that date.

Interscope needs a guaranteed first quarter mega-hit album, since Lady Gaga's 'Born This Way' doesn't drop until May.

 

Keep your fingers crossed.
