DJ Pauly D officially became a member of the G-Unit/G-Note family today (December 1) after inking a deal with 50 Cent.

The "Jersey Shore" star had made no secret about the fact he wanted to work with 50 Cent.

“50 cent has also been somebody I looked up to. We ended up linking up and we just clicked. We hit it off immediately with the music and everything like that," he told XXL back in August.

Fans can expect to hear a fresh new sound from Pauly, who compared his music to that of French producer David Guetta.

"It's going to be a little bit of everything," Pauly told Billboard about his upcoming album. "It's kind of David Guetta but my own DJ Pauly D style."

50 told the Associated Press that Pauly was a "great addition to G-Note and G-Unit family" and called him smart and creative.

50 Cent is being careful not to reveal too many details regarding features on his upcoming fifth studio album, but he made an exception in his new XXL interview.

Fif told the publication he would like to have Odd Future singer Frank Ocean on the disc.

Who else, other than Eminem did you collaborate with as an artist?
See, he’s the usual suspect so I could disclose that. But I’m just gonna hold on to my goodies because I don’t know when these people gonna be ready. I thought I was ready a while ago.

Don’t be surprised [laughs]. You know who I wanna work with though? I wanna work with the kid Frank Ocean. I like his voice. I just gotta figure out what it is. I’ll try to figure that out before I get to him.

50 also revealed that there will be production from Alex Da Kid and Boi-1da on the album.

Does Miley Cyrus love marijuana? She seems to admit as much in a new video that is making it's way around the internet.

In the clip Miley can be seen dancing to 50 Cent's "In Da Club" before grabbing the mic to comment on the Bob Marley cake that was presented to her for her 19th birthday.

"You know you're a stoner when your friends make you a Bob Marley cake," said the former Disney princess. "You know you smoke way too much f*cking weed."

The scene reminded many of the video that surfaced last year of the "Hannah Montana" star smoking salvia shortly after her 18th birthday.

A rep for the singer was quick to issue a statement defending Miley.

“The cake was a joke and Miley was being sarcastic,” the rep told Access Hollywood on Sunday. “It is being completely taken out of context.”

Kelly Osbourne, who organized the event also tried to do damage control via Twitter.

"Let me make something very clear after @MileyCyrus salvia incident we started calling her bob miley as a JOKE!" she wrote. "The cake was also A JOKE! it makes me sick that @MileyCyrus so called 'friends' would sell her out and lead people 2 believe she is someone that she is not! U guys if @MileyCyrus is not recording/filming/touring she is works everyday how could she possible do all that if she was a stoner! #think."

Check out the video below and judge for yourself.

50 Cent is dead serious about wanting to feed one billion people in need. He doesn't want fans getting distracted from helping him reach that goal by getting caught up in whether or not he has issues with T.I.

Fif touched on the subject today via Twitter. He said he spoke with Tip last night. While he didn't reveal what was discussed, he did remind fans that Street King and helping those less fortunate is much more important than any beef.

"Look how much you fools have been tweeting about me and @tip I spoke to him last night you sh*t heads should be tweeting about street king," 50 wrote. "You know I try to do the right thing. I'm starting to feel like good guys finish last. You talk more about sh*t that can go bad then positive things."

All you need to succeed in the music game today is Twitter and a loving Aunt. Aspiring producer, ODizzy Beatz has much to be thankful for this past holiday weekend. For one, his Aunt reached out to 50 Cent via Twitter in regards to her nephew’s music skills. She wrote:

@MissRaquiba: @50cent "I need you to meet my nephew @ODizzyBeatz his music/beatz are off the chain #welcometotheD”.

The ever-active Twitter celeb in 50 responded with a retweet and added: “I just picked one of his tracks.”

Judging from the exposure to 50’s 5,252,130 Twitter followers, you can guess that ODizzy’s life is on high right now. We reached out to the upstart producer to get his reaction to the tweet that could be his big break.

VIBE: Did you know that your aunt shouted you out to 50 Cent?

ODizzy : I actually didn't know that my aunt tweeted 50. It wasn't a surprise though because ever since she joined Twitter she's been tweeting celebs as if she knows them [Laughs].

Where were you when you heard he selected one of your beats?
I was still in bed around noon when I read the tweet. I was half sleep and thought I was tripping when I saw he replied back and said he just picked one of my tracks.

Do you know which one he picked?
I actually don't know what beat he selected yet. I've been in contact with G-Unit and their A&Rs for over a year now. I’ve been submitting them music for a lil bit. So something crazy I'm sure.

Has he contacted you yet?
I haven't been contacted as of now.

What does his co-sign mean for your confidence/career?
At this stage in the game, a co-sign means a lot to new artists and producers. Honestly, I've been waiting on a co-sign or a "stamp" ever since I’ve started producing. I always had confidence and knew that I had a good sound. But I was just anticipating the day the right person in the right position would agree and feel the same way I always did. The feeling is indescribable.

How long have you been making music?
I've been making beats/producing for 9 years.

Where are you from?
I'm from Detroit, MI.

What are you going get your aunt for Christmas, haha?
As soon as I saw the Twitter exchange between them, I yelled out loud, "WERE GOING TO DISNEYWORLD!" But, I don't know what I'll get her for certain...something nice though.

T.I. may have just made the mistake of waking a sleeping giant.

As we reported earlier, T.I. responded to a joke 50 Cent made in 2010 about his wife Tiny taking the charge for him in his most recent drug bust that wound up costing him 11 months in federal prison.

In the December/January issue of Vibe, Tip spoke angrily about Fif's comments.

“I’ma tell you, 50 Cent and anybody else, we not gonn’a have no discussion about what my ole lady should’a, would’a, couda done for anything as it pertains to me,” Tip said. “We ain’t gonn’a do that. I’m the only one in my family that’s gonna take a lick when it pertains to the legal system. Since me, none of my other family members have seen a jail cell. Nobody. I’m the last one. The buck stops here. I feel that a person that stands behind [his woman for a criminal charge] is a coward anyway.”

It didn't take long for 50 to fire back via Twitter.

"Man I just saw something T.I said in VIBE about a tweet I wrote when he caught his drug case. He just got out a jam and caught a new one," 50 wrote on the social networking site. "Any other time a n*gga done. Get caught with 10 machine gun an silencer then catch a drug charge. You will f**k around and get natural life. This boy got a get outta jail FREE card. Don't get emotional over your lady. It a get you in some sh*t you don't want to be in."

Well, damn!

In the upcoming December/January issue of Vibe, rapper T.I. had a few things he wanted to address. One of them being his September 2010 arrest in Los Angeles for possession of ecstacy which violated his probation and led to an 11-month stint in an Arkansas federal prison.

Tip's wife, Tameka "Tiny" Cottle, was also arrested during the traffic stop, but charges against her were eventually dropped.

When news first broke of the couple's arrest, G-Unit boss 50 Cent jokingly suggested on Twitter that Tiny should take the charge given T.I.'s legal situation.

"Tiny gotta take that charge," 50 wrote. "Say it was yours baby."

Tip responds to 50's remarks during his interview with Vibe.

Vibe: T.I. on people criticizing Tiny for not taking the drug charge

“I’ma tell you, 50 Cent and anybody else, we not gonn’a have no discussion about what my ole lady should’a, would’a, couda done for anything as it pertains to me,” begins his rant. “We ain’t gonn’a do that. I’m the only one in my family that’s gonna take a lick when it pertains to the legal system. Since me, none of my other family members have seen a jail cell. Nobody. I’m the last one. The buck stops here. I feel that a person that stands behind [his woman for a criminal charge] is a coward anyway.”

I doubt she would have gotten any time.
T.I.: She wasn’t gonna catch it period, ’cause I’m there. That wasn’t even a consideration. Even if she asked me to I would’ve been like, “Nah, you trippin’.“

So you didn’t feel you were more valuable to your family, employees and business partners on the street?
That’s a discussion between me and another man. Not with the mother of my children. Not with the nurturer of my household.

Better TV had the chance to catch up with 50 Cent recently at the launch of Street King Energy Drink. They talked with 50 about what inspired him to start the ambitious project, what made him choose the name "Street King" and why he chose an energy drink instead of alcohol for the initiative.

"Alcohol would probably be an easy fit because alcohol is consumed where music is played, the bar, the nightclub, whatever kind of club," 50 said. "Energy is more a reflection of my lifestyle because I don't drink. So, it would be hard for me to be supportive of an alcohol beverage when I don't drink."

Many of 50's celebrity friends were in attendance at the event showing their support. UK singer Corinne Baily Rae said she is really happy to see the G-Unit boss giving back.

"I think his music is really enjoyable and I also like his ambition," she said. "He has these intentions to feed a billion children in the developing world and Africa. That's a huge ambition so, I'll be interested to speak to him about that."

"I think it's a partnership. The people, your fans are what put you here. So, when you get to this level of success I think it's only right to give back," said Pepa of Salt-N-Pepa.

Street King is now available everywhere. For more information visit www.StreetKing.com.
