Video After The Jump As anticipation builds for Nicki Minaj's debut, we get visuals for a song that has hit written all over it. "Right Through Me" displays a much softer side of Nicki than we normally see, as she raps and sings about a guy she can't let go of. The song will be on her 'Pink Friday' album which hits store shelves November 22. The Queens femcee is aiming to become the third Young Money artist to have a number one album this year, following Drake and Lil Wayne. Expect the competition to be fierce though, as both Kanye West's 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy' and Lloyd Banks' 'Hunger For More 2' drop on the same day.

Videos After The Jump The Hottest MC's In The Game list, voted on by MTV is completed. Was there ever any doubt as to who would be number one? Coming in at # 1 is Eminem Eminem has dominated hip hop this year. His 'Recovery' album shot out the gate, selling 741,000 copies it's first week out, and is almost at 3 million copies sold in the U.S. alone. At one point the album had an incredible 7 songs on Billboards Hot 100 Singles chart. With "25 To Life" # 92, "Talkin To Myself" # 88, "Cold Wind Blows" # 71, "Won't Back Down" # 62, "No Love" # 23, "Not Afraid" # 11 and "Love The Way You Lie" at # 2. The Rihanna assisted "Love The Way You Lie" has dominated pop radio, spending four weeks in Billboards top slot. Eminem also participated in what some have called the greatest hip hop concerts in history when he and Jay-Z paired up for the Home and Home shows at Detroit's Comerica Park and New York's Yankee Stadium. The concerts featured guests 50 Cent, Dr Dre, D12, Trick Trick, Young Jeezy, Drake, Memphis Bleek as well as B.o.B., Kanye West and Beyonce. Proving that rap artists cauld sell out stadiums. Coming in at # 2 is Jay-Z Jigga simply shows no signs of slowing down. The Brooklyn rapper didn't have an album out in 2010, but he rode the success of 2009's 'Blueprint 3', selling out concerts worldwide. He is regularly headlining shows that have traditionally been the sole territory of rock acts. In November Hov is slated to open for U2 for the Australia and New Zealand legs on their 360 tour. Add to that the success of the Home and Home concerts with Eminem, and it's easy to see why Jigga got the # 2 slot. Coming in at # 3 is Kanye West. West has really enjoyed a stellar 2010. In what has been a big comeback year for the Chicago rapper, following a 2009 that saw a lot of the media and some fans turn their backs on him after the Taylor Swift VMA incident. While he doesn't have a chart topping song at the moment, Kanye has put out a number of fantastic joints via his G.O.O.D Friday campaign. He's also released two groundbreaking videos with "Power" and the short film "Runaway." Add to that his great live performances at the BET Awards and Saturday Night Live. West has proven why he is amongst the elite the game has to offer. With a new album, 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy' about to drop next month, 2010 will only get better for the Louis Vuitton Don. Coming in at # 4 is Drake Young Money has been very well represented on the Hottest MC's list this time around. Drake is the third emcee from the camp to make the list, following Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj. His debut album 'Thank Me Later' debuted at # 1 with 447,000 copies sold, and is closing in on platinum status. Three songs from the disc, "Over", "Miss Me" and "Find Your Love" have achieved top 15 recognition on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart. The sky seems to be the limit for Drake as an artist. He is able to pull off the rare feat of making both R&B and Hip Hop joints, while keeping both audiences satisfied. Coming in at # 5 is Officer Rick Ross. Congrats to all the artists who made the list. twitter-5d.gif

Video After The Jump On the evening of Sept. 7, 1996, Mike Tyson, the WBC heavyweight champion, attempted to take Bruce Seldon’s WBA title at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. At this point in his career, Tyson’s fights had become somewhat of a cultural phenomenon, where the ever present hype of the professional boxing scene would come face to face with the worlds of big business, Hollywood, and hip hop. Sitting ringside was controversial rapper Tupac Shakur. Shakur and Tyson were friends, a feeling of kinship linked them as each rose to stardom from poverty only to be thrown in prison. Following Tyson’s victory, Shakur and “Iron Mike” were to celebrate at an after party, but the rap star never arrived. Shakur was brutally gunned down later that night, and the scene in Las Vegas quickly turned from would-be celebratory revelry to ill fated and inopportune tragedy. Director Reggie Bythewood, with the full cooperation of Mike Tyson, will tell not only the story of that infamous night but of the remarkable friendship between Tyson and Tupac ESPN twitter-5d.gif

Raekwon tapped into a whole new audience last week, when Kanye West dropped his remix to Justin Bieber's hit 'Runaway Love,' featuring the famed Wu-Tang rapper. But according to the Chef, he still has a few more tricks up his sleeve in the coming year. He revealed to Vulture that his fifth album 'Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang' would likely arrive in 2011, but in the meantime, he's also working on a new movie with Damon Dash. "I'm working on a movie called C.R.E.A.M that I co-directed with one of my partners," Raekwon explained. "We teamed with [Damon] Dash. Ya'll gonna be hearing more about this movie that we're putting together called 'C.R.E.A.M.' It's called 'Cash Rules Everything Around Me.' It's a lot of things transpiring right now, but I just want to continue to stay in my zone, stay focused and keep working." The Chef says that the project has been a long time in the making, and as of now, he has no plans to actually appear on-screen, although that might be subject to change. "I'm playing the outskirts on this one because I kind of feel like that's where I'm at," he said, "You know, I don't know. At this point, I probably won't be in it, but we don't know. I want to more or less capture the scenes from the outside looking in, because I want it to be something that people say is a classic, and they respect the storyline of where we went with it. This is something I've been wanting to do for along time, even when we was making 'Cuban Linx II' I was already making it my business to obligate time to that, to putting the script together. It's where it needs to be right now." One of Raekwon's latest collaborations also includes an upcoming remix with R&B diva Faith Evans, which he says will resound with "hardcore lovers" and "R&B lovers." Source: BoomBox twitter-5d.gif
