Cash Money artist Bow Wow is battling demons (real or imagined?) in this video that was shot a year and a half ago, but is just now getting released.
At least one member of Young Money is unhappy with Universal Records.
Yesterday (June 23) Toronto rapper Drake let his 2.4 million twitter followers know that he's upset with the label for removing his music from the net.
Although he didn't mention the name of the songs he was referring to specifically, two new tracks, "Trust Issues" and "Marvin's Room" recently hit the net.
Universal has a very strict policy of removing download and streaming links of songs depending on the artist and whether or not the tracks were leaked prematurely.
Drake isn't the only artist dealing with this issue. Another Universal artist 50 Cent often releases free original material for his fans as well.
Albums and songs leaked by hackers are a huge problem for the industry, so it's understandable that labels want to protect their investments. But where do they draw the line between the hackers and artists doing it themselves?

Since no official video has dropped yet for one of the most popular songs on Nicki Minaj's 'Pink Friday' cd, DJ Scoob Doo drops and internet version for her fans.
The Lil Kim vs Nicki Minaj beef has been cooking for months with no end in sight. Both ladies have taken shots at each other on wax and Twitter. Who's winning the war would depend on who you ask, but there's at least one person who would like to see the feud end.
While out in the UK for the Gumball 3000 road rally, Philadelphia rapper Eve spoke with BBC Radio 1xtra host Tim Westwood about the beef and the need for more females in the game.
“You know, it's definitely a nice group of females that's out representing, but because I come from hip-hop, I need more females in hip-hop," said Eve. "Nicki definitely is holding the flag down, and a lot of people be wanting me to hate just because that's how girls supposed to do in hip-hop, but I'm loving everything she does. But we need more females, man. There's too much testosterone in the hip-hop game."
When asked directly about the situation currently going on between Kim and Nicki, Eve had this to say.
“I need her to stop. If I was Kim's friend, I'd be like, yo. ‘cause she's Kim, period. So she never has to feed [into the beef]. She shouldn't. It's bad. It's not a good look," she said. "If I was her friend, I'd tell her, yo, just come back bigger and better. The best way to get at people is to do you better than you've ever done you. So that's it.”
After a long hiatus Eve has been making her presence felt recently with guest appearances with Ludacris, Alicia Keys and frequent collaborator Swizz Beatz.
It's expected that she will be releasing her fourth solo album 'Lip Lock' sometime this year.
Information from MTV was used in this article.

Much has been made of Nicki Minaj being dubbed the new "Queen of Hip Hop." by Rolling Stone. She recently visited MTV's 'Funk Flex Full Throttle' show to talk about how she felt upon hearing the news, and whether or not she accepts the title.
"I was so excited because they're really respected," she said. "And then when I went on all the TV shows, they kept on saying, ‘She’s been dubbed the New Queen of Hip-Hop by Rolling Stone magazine,’ so I was like, that happened at the perfect time.”
The Young Money starlet had no idea they would be writing that about her beforehand and felt really humbled.
"I'm honored because obviously I've been working hard to get to this place. Whether or not I'm the queen of anything, you know everybody is going to have their own opinions," she continued. "I don’t do this thinking I’m the queen of this, I’m the queen of that. I just feel like I’m working hard and I just want people to recognize that.”
Next up for Nicki is a tour with Britney Spears. After that she expects to begin working on her sophomore album.

Nicki Minaj's new video for "Moment For Life" premiered on MTV tonight.
In it, Drake's dreams of romancing the Harajuku Barbie come true.
Check it out below and let us know what you think.
The rapper has no love for the state after serving eight months in prison on gun charges, and says he's never coming back.
DMX made a similar proclamation about the state of Arizona before changing his mind.
As of now, Weezy can't see a New York appearance happening unless a promoter is willing to Back a Brinks truck up to his tour bus.
“They’d have to give me U2 money,” Wayne told Rolling Stone via Rap-Up.
Considering three of Young Money's artists, Cory Gunz, Jae Millz and Nicki Minaj are from New York it will be interesting to see how this all pans out.

You gotta bet big to win big and vice versa.
Gucci Mane's bank account is $20,000 lighter today after losing a bet over the weekend.
The rapper said via Twitter that he would bet anyone 20K, that wanted to take the Green Bay Packers vs his Atlanta Falcons.
"i got 20k on them dirty birds any body want this bet who like green bay. straight up who want the bet," Gucci tweeted Friday (January 15).
It wasn't long before Gucci came back and said that Cash Money CEO Birdman had taken him up on his offer.
"Stunna took the bet my boy we bet everyweek and get it how we live follow my brother @BIRDMAN5STAR," Gucci tweeted.
Birdman is no stranger to big bets. He claimed to have bet $4million dollars on Floyd Mayweather Jr against Sugar Shane Mosley last May.
And just like he did with Mayweather, Stunna won with the Pack as they manhandled the Dirty Birds 48-21 on Saturday (January 16).
Neither Birdman or Gucci have tweeted since the 15th, but it's highly unlikely Stunna would rub it in publicly. And it's also doubtful Gucci would brag about losing 20 G's
