JAY-Z (413)
Dame Dash must sit back every now and then, look around his crib and say "F*ck Jay-Z!" Although he has always been diplomatic when speaking about his former partner at Roc-A-Fella Records in public. Dame has heard nothing but bad news since the Roc came tumbling down.
We've heard the whispers that Dame's finances have been dwindling and here is further proof.
HipHopWired is reporting that Dame has stopped making the $78,504.20 montlhy payment
on his Tribeca Loft and is going through foreclosure.

“This stunning 5,200 SF duplex loft boasts 20 foot ceilings in the living room, 4 bedrooms and 4 baths on TriBeCas best block. Add huge windows facing north and south, a mint kitchen and luxurious bathrooms, it leaves nothing to be desired. Located in the preeminent full service doorman building, the Atalanta, Must be seen!!

The young beast mc J. Cole is about to drop his debut cd. And instead of filling it up with features, Cole is doing something almost unheard of these days by doing the entire album solo.
"No features man, you might get a last minute Jay-Z feature or you might not......yeah you probably will, but other than that no features man," he tells Toure'. I feel like it says something...it makes a statement to be able to come out and put out that first album and not have any features.....no major features or not every hottest rapper in the game. It says something, I'll get em on the next one, but this one I got too much to say to really be giving up first spots."
One thing you don't want to do in J.Cole's presence is diss Canibus. He tells Toure about a fight he got into with an old head dissing 'Bus.
"We was on the bus, I think we were like going to some basketball game. It was this older dude, he didn't know what he was talking about. He was dissing Canibus and I got mad."
J. Cole's debut album 'Cole World' is coming soon.

What clown said hip hip was dead? You can't kill an art form that's driven from the energy and love that's put into it by both the artists and the fans,
No doubt there are going to be times fads pass through hip hop like mohawks and skinny jeans, but at the end of the day talented spittas and producers will bring back that real sh*t.
I typed all that just to publicly admit I've been sleeping on J.Cole. You know, he was Jay-Z's 1st on Roc Nation artist, blah blah. It kind of went in one ear and out of the other.
But I've recently realized the error of my ways. The man is the truth and a big part a rap's future.
On Friday (July 16) Cole came to Philadelphia as part of the Heineken Inspire tour. The show also featured legendary turntable King Jazzy Jeff and R&B songstress Marshia Ambrosius.
Cole did his thing and paid respect to Philly by bringing out Freeway for a couple songs.
It was very interesting hearing and see the old Roc-A-Fella on the same stage with Jay-Z's new Roc Nation MC.
We get to see J.Cole perform "Last Call" before he brings Freeway out to perform "Roc The Mic" and "Who We Are"

Philadelphia rapper Freeway, known for his unique flow and association with Jay-Z, sat down with Hard Knock TV to talk about what he's been up to recently.
With a new label situation at Rhyme Sayers, Freezer compares being there to his days at Roc-A-Fella Records.
"At the Roc, just like Rhyme Sayers we had creative control of our project. Both of my albums at Roc-A-Fella I just went in did what I did and turned the albums in, it's the same way with Rhyme Sayers. Towards the end of my career with Roc-a-Fella when everything was falling apart. The attention shifted from us [the artists] to what was going on with Jay and Dame and all that. And they wasn't concentrating on our projects as much as they should have."
Freeway has watched as the Roc dynasty crumbled. Being a part of State Property with Beanie Sigel, Peedi Crakk, Young Gunz and Oschino & Sparks has put Freezer in an uneasy position.
For the most part he's been quiet and not taken sides as Beanie has taken his beef with Jay-Z public, but he understands the situation.
"Sh*t is f*cked up man, me being a part of it I just wish sh*t was how it was. I know Jay love Beans, I know Beans love Jay. Communication is the key, if you don't know what's on that man's mind and you aint talked to him in months you liable to think anything."
As bad as things seem now, Freeway wouldn't rule out a Roc reunion.
"If Jay and Nas can do some sh*t together. Communication is the key, if we can communicate now maybe we can get it done, If not f*ck it."

When Damon Dash pulled a Roc-A-Fella chain out of his vault several months ago and presented it to Curren$y, it was just a celebration of their friendship. Now, the chain means much more. Dash is resurrecting Roc-A-Fella Records and plans to make Curren$y's Pilot Talk the label's first new release on June 15.

Melzer's kids re-wrote the lyrics of the song to be all about Boca Raton, Florida. After teaching her the lyrics, they recorded the video over two days.
"You have to get out there have fun don't take yourself too seriously," says Melzer. "I have a new respect for rappers. It's so fast you can't even catch your breath!"
Peep the video below and CNN's report on it.

Kanye West just released the video for "Coldest Winter" off his latest album '808's and Heartbreaks'
Yeezy doesn't make an appearance in the video. Instead we see a woman running through the darkness from the Grim Reaper.
Not sure what the song and video have in common, but hey it's a music video. I guess it doesn't have to make sense.

Chelsea Lately is probably the funniest late night talk show host. She's even funnier when she sets her sights on a target.
Recently that target happened to be Beyonce Knowles.
Chelsea took major shots at the R&B diva for her borderline raunchy performance at this years Grammy Awards.
Check out what Ms Lately had to say about it.
