Video After The Jump I'm really digging the trend of rappers using bands in concert and live television appearances. It shows the progression of hip hop, from when performances were strictly two turntables and a mic. While I see nothing wrong with the latter, I do think live bands will become more the norm, and will free the dj up to do more cutting and scratching. All that leads up to is me saying Drake was exceptional on Late Show With David Letterman last night (October 1). Where he performed "Show Me A Good Time" from his debut album 'Thank Me Later.' How do you guys feel about live bands vs just the mc and his dj? twitter-5d.gif

Video After The Jump What recession? Cash Money Records co-owner, Birdman is spending money like it's nothing. The man has likes expensive items from Europe. Just in the last week we've seen Stunna cop a $2.5 million dollar Bugatti Veyron sports car. Now we see him being hand delivered a $1.5 million dollar diamond encrusted Chopard watch. The watch is supposedly one of only two made. The other is owned by singer Elton John who is an avid admirer of exquisite time pieces. So much so, he has his own collection designed by Chopard. The watch pictured below was made by the company to mark their 10 years of support for Elton's Aids Foundation.

Is spending $1.5 million dollars on a watch ridiculous or not a big deal if you're rich and can afford it?

Video After The Jump Cory Gunz has been grinding for a minute, destroying every beat he's spit on. He recently signed with Lil Wayne's, Young Money imprint, adding more firepower to an already stacked line up. VladTV recently caught up with Cory to find out how the deal came about. "Over the years it has always been me, Wayne and Mack [Maine] as far as communicating back and forth," Cory said. "It has always been a little miscommunication as far as my deal. Now it's figured out. Mack Maine was real instrumental in wanting to get the situation done. One thing led to another and it's about to be history." Cory goes on to talk about his relationship with Lil Wayne, how Weezy is holding up in jail and how a lot of rappers have tried to steal his style. twitter-5d.gif

Nicki Minaj has refused to discuss her sexuality, claiming she doesn't understand the fascination with her private life. Speculation about the Young Money rapper's sexual preference has surrounded her since she burst onto the rap scene last year, with some reports suggesting she is bisexual. Lil Wayne's protege has previously made jokes about having threesomes with R n B songstress Cassie and model Lauren London which has fueled reports that she could be into women. Minaj also hit the headlines earlier this month for her joke marriage to Drake on Twitter, with even his mum thinking they had tied the knot. Speaking to Complex magazine, the Your Love singer claims she is happy to keep people guessing about her sexuality stating: "Take what you want from it (the bisexual rumours). (In the press) I didn't say (I don't like women)." "I said I don't have sex with women. I don't have sex with men right now either. If (bisexual is) what they wanna call me, then fine." Minaj also revealed to the publication that she is currently single and enjoying a period of celibacy, saying: "Maybe it's because we don't need that physical stimulation all the time. I can just have a daydream and it does it for me." Source: MTVUK twitter-5d.gif

Video After The Jump Super producer Swizz Beats should know better than anyone that it's hard to duplicate a classic song, having already made so many himself. But Swizzy is going to attempt bring back the magic people felt when they first heard Eminem's "Stan" on a new record he's recorded with Lil Wayne titled "Anne". The beat for the track was originally produced for Eminem's 'Relapse' album as "Stan 2", but Slim wanted to head in a different direction. So Swizz is using the beat for his upcoming 'Haute Living' album. "There was a lot of controversy over this before," Swizz said "The Eminem album before ['Recovery'], 'Relapse,' I submitted a beat to him called 'Stan 2.' When I was doing an interview and they said, 'What you working on?' [Em] was amongst the people in the lineup I submitted things for. I said, 'I did a track for Eminem called 'Stan 2.' So it got out of hand in the media. He didn't want to do 'Stan 2.' But what I have on my album is a song called 'Anne' with Wayne, which is crazy. The way that Wayne just...it's just ridiculous. He tells Anne, he's sorry for having a Stan" I gotta hear this......

Nicki Minaj is the new Queen of hip hop, and somewhere along the way, she has also become a big influence in the gay and lesbian community. Female pop artists like Madonna, Grace Jones and Lady Gaga have huge fan bases in those communities as well, but it's not something that has ever happened before in rap. The Trinidad born femcee recently talked with PaperMag about how this came to be, and why she embraces it. "I didn't set out to do that. I just like to put a spotlight on the people who support me, and it just so happens, you know, that the gay community has supported me -- more than I ever could have imagined," she says. "I see videos on YouTube where they impersonate me, and they do an amazing freaking job of dressing up as me." Nicki credits going to LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts (the "Fame school") as being a major influence and with keeping her open minded. "I saw gay kids, I saw white kids, I saw grunge and pink hair and piercings," she recalls. "I think because of that, I didn't put limits on myself or what I was going to put in my raps. I really just wanted to be diverse." The Young Money rapper thinks that one day we will see a male rapper have just as big of an impact in the gay community. Nicki, who has said she is bi-sexual, told Details that time might not come that soon though. "I think the world is getting more gay-friendly, so hip-hop is too. But it's harder to imagine an openly gay male rapper being embraced. People view gay men as having no street credibility. But I think we'll see one in my lifetime." twitter-5d.gif

Audio After The Jump Nicki Minaj has put female hip hop back on the map. You could argue that she is single handedly carrying the game on her back for femcees. Her album 'Pink Friday' is set to drop November 23, and already there's talk of if it flops, other females might not get that look from major labels. But is that talk accurate or a clever marketing ploy? V-103's DJ Greg Street recently caught up with the Harajuku Barbie and spoke with her about that topic and a lot more. "I'm in a very grateful state right now," Nicki says. "I'm trying to go in with this album so I can make people proud." There's a lot riding on this project, no doubt. Nicki feels like everybody, including her fellow female rappers should support it, or else. "They [major labels] won't look to sign other female rappers if the project doesn't so well. Because they're gonna say 'well, her buzz was so crazy, if she couldn't do it no one can do it'. I don't want that to happen so I'm doing this for all the girls." Although her career has really taken off, Nicki admits there were times early on she wasn't so sure it would. "For a long time in my life, I was afraid to be a solo female rapper, because everyone told me, 'It doesn't work. It's not going to happen. Record companies are never going to invest in you just to get it. Just be part of a group.' " she said. Young Money CEO, Lil Wayne gets released from prison November 4. Nicki says the New Orleans spitter is focused. "I'm afraid for anybody, any of his competition when he gets out. Because I just feel like it's going to be monumental. He's in a great state. When I speak to him, he sounds like he has some sort of clear understanding of everything now, almost like he's had some weird sort of epiphany since he's been there, so I'm sure his stuff is only going to get better." So is Nicki right? Should other rappers fear what will happen when Weezy gets out? And if her album flops will that kill female hip hop on a mainstream level? twitter-5d.gif

Nicki Minaj has been the subject of a lot of rumors in her short career. Has she had plastic surgery? Did she date Lil Wayne? Is she really bi-sexual? Is Diddy her manager and are the two of them involved romantically? While she didn't clear up all speculation, the Young Money femcee did set the record straight on a couple of those topics. In a recent interview with CNN, Nicki was asked about those Diddy rumors. "You know how you look at your older brother? That's how I look at Diddy. When people say that, it makes me gag. He's my friend, and he's sweet and he's a great guy, but I could never see him that way," she said. The article states that for the record, Diddy is not her manager. Nicki also had a something to say about people that constantly put down her abilities as a rapper. "The people that are inclined to hate are also inclined to be losers. A loser could never congratulate a winner - it's not in them" she says. twitter-5d.gif

Video After The Jump The O.D.: A Mixtape Daily Exclusive Chris Brown is in the #1 film in the country, "Takers," and now that he's done with Hollywood (for now), he's going back to the lab. "Me, I'm definitely writing on other people's projects. A lot of in-house stuff," Brown said recently in L.A. "I got a lot of artists coming out. The single 'Deuces' features one of my artists K-Mac and Tyga [from Young Money]. I'm pushing forward. The movie's out, so I'mma have fun." "Deuces" is in the top 30 of Billboard's Hot 100 charts and #1 on urban radio. The record's success is simply due to fan support. It's part of Brown and Tyga's Fan of a Fan mixtape and skyrocketed once the video hit virally and on MTV Jams. "That was actually Chris' idea," Tyga told us about putting out a visual for the song. "I thought the record was dope. I thought it was dope for us to do that video. He got to explain his situation. It connects to his fans. His fans miss that from him. "I think the people chose the record," Tyga added. "We put the mixtape out, and we asked them: What record do you like the most? They was like, 'Deuces.' It was always coming up. It was growing on YouTube as well, like 100,000 views a day on YouTube. It was his idea to shoot the video. My homie Colin Tilly, he's done all my videos. He's done everything. All my mixtape stuff to the bigger stuff I'm doing now. He got it right. It's what people wanna see, what they wanna hear." Despite the overwhelming success of Fan of a Fan, Tyga said he and Chris aren't planning an official LP, but they are hitting the road together. "I don't think you wanna drown people too much," Tyga said about making a full album with Brown. "We've been doing a lot of stuff, though. He's on my album. We're actually working on a tour right now. A Fan of Fan Tour at the end of the year. It'll be dope." Tyga has an album coming out soon; it doesn't have a release date yet. But his next mixtape, Well Done, will hit within the next couple of weeks. It's going to be a Gangsta Grillz edition. "I feel like I had to deal with [DJ] Drama. He reminded of Wayne, when he did Dedication with him," Tyga explained. "[Wayne] was going in on every beat. All the mixtapes I've been dropping, they're close to albums. They're more songs. They have more content. This one, I wanted to rap on everybody's beat and murder every beat that's out. It's fun to do that. It's easy. I can knock that out real fast. I think Drama is dope when you wanna link up and murder beats like that." Some of the tracks Tyga is pilfering are Soulja Boy's "Pretty Boy Swag" and Nicki Minaj's "Your Love." Source: MTV

When it comes to Jay-Z and Lil Wayne, there is no comparison if you ask Birdman. In a story reported by HipHopWired, the Cash Money CEO says Jay-Z takes a back seat to his "son" as both a rapper and in earning money. "I don't think he [Jay-Z] a number one emcee in no kinda way. Wayne the best he do the most and he make the most money," he said. Forbes recently ranked Jay-Z as hip hop's top earner with $63 million made, with Lil Wayne ranked fourth with an earned income of $20 million, Birdman disputes their figures. "I don't think no n*gga in the business make more money than us. How could you be the best if you don't make the best money, the most money and you don't do the most. Lyrically, come on man be for real man can't nobody f*ck with Wayne. And to me, if you number one and you ain't getting no money it don't mean nothing. Who's making the most money. That's number one to me. F*ck all that rap sh*t. Sh*t, y'all got cold rappers you never even heard and then you got n*ggas who really can't rap and making money. It's about who's making the most money to me. I don't give a f*ck about the rest of that sh*t." Still, after jabbing Jay-Z pretty hard, Baby wanted to make it known that there was no beef with Hov “No, no, [beef]. Nothing personal, they just asked me my opinion and that was my opinion. I think we do the most and make the most, so if you don't like it, that's on you. I can't see past Wayne, so I can't see Jay-Z." I don't know, that kind of sounded like steak to me.

Young Money femcee, Nicki Minaj shows no signs of letting go of her grip on the best female rapper in the game title. At the very least, she is the most popular and continues to make all the right career moves.

Her latest single, "Your Love" holds the #14 spot on Billboard's Hot 100 Chart and she was just nominated for an MTV Video Music Award in the Best New Artist category.

"I feel like I've died and gone to heaven," Minaj told MTV of the VMA nomination. "I definitely thought I'd get one someday, but not before I put the album out. I never thought I'd get a nomination [this year]. ... I didn't even think I'd get invited!"

Expect more new music from Nicki very soon. She recently told Billboard that she is putting the finishing touches on her next single. "I think you guys are going to be really happy with it," she said.

Nicki's debut album, 'Pink Friday' is due out November 23.

Video After The Jump Bow Wow is feeling anxious about his next album. He's been promoting his new movie 'Lottery Ticket' and hasn't had the time to get in the booth. The Cash Money rapper told Nnete of Houston's 97.9 The Box that he recently called up his former protege, Jermaine Dupri to share his concerns. "I was just talking to Jermaine [Dupri] yesterday. I called him and was like 'yo I know I never really called you and said anything like this before. I'm kind of scared, I'm nervous because I wanna get in the studio so bad. I'm know for putting out hit records and I don't wanna be away for too long to where I don't know what that feeling feels like again.'" It's both a gift and a curse for the 23 year old, but he says Birdman is very happy that he's opened the door for more Cash Money artists to get movie roles. Bow Wow reveals that he almost got Nicki Minaj a part in the movie. “To be honest Nicki was close to being “Nikki” in the movie…I was responsible for that. I said let’s get Nicki out here to audition and I called Nicki and she actually auditioned. I thought she did good but unfortunately you know how things don’t work out." Bow recently visited Lil Wayne is prison. He said Weezy told him to stay out of trouble because guys like them aren't built for jail. “It was a humbling experience and one thing he told me when I went to visit him was ‘Bow, This aint for us, this aint it.. This aint built for cats like us. They don’t understand us we don’t understand them.. don’t do it man, just stay out of trouble you and Drizzy yall stay clean yall stay doing what yall do yall can do this forever. all of this, it aint worth it . I knew he meant it, cause Tune never lectures me like that but he was serious.’ His spirits are high. When he gets out we definitely planning on this Young Money Cash Money Tour, myself, Nicki, Drizzy Wayne and the whole entire family.” twitter-2a.png

Drake has already been thanked by the fans with a platinum plaque. Now, the 23-year-old says he wants to reciprocate the love by gifting them a free mixtape. His all-R&B project is coming sooner than later, he says.

"Me and 40 working on it," Drake said in Toronto at his OVO Festival. "I got you. I think I got a great body of work with that tape. I'm gonna do it like I do all my other tapes. I'm gonna make a night out of it. Just make sure you're on the Net that night downloading, and it's yours. I feel the people deserve it. It's hard for me to put out free rap albums these days. So the best I can do is switch genres and put something out for free. It'll be yours very soon."

Although Drizzy didn't reveal any of the records we may find on the tape, Mixtape Daily is guessing that the leaked "Fall for Your Type" (the record appeared unfinished on the Net several weeks ago) may appear somewhere on there.

" ''Fall for Your Type' I wish was on there," he said Sunday while talking about records such as "Darlin' " — another leaker — that didn't make Thank Me Later. "But I have other plans for that record, so it's gonna be good."

As for his next official LP, Drake said he may be simplifying his song structure some.

"What I want is just for the records to be able to be played and enjoyed without it being too complex," he explained.

After viewing Drake's 'Best I Ever Had' video, no one could deny the rapper had a fondness for females with buxom bosoms. In a recent interview with Canadian reporter Nardwuar, the former 'Degrassi' star further discussed his inclination for women with large breasts as well as being a fan of the well-endowed actress Pam Grier.

In the clip, Nardwuar inquired about a recent show in Cleveland, Ohio, where Drake used a "bra stand." The Toronto native, accompanied by producer and friend 40, let the interviewer in on the special dedication he gave to women during his concerts. "I put like the biggest breast bras on my mic stand," he admitted. "I try to showcase the fact that a full chest is nothing to be ashamed of."

Drake went on to discuss his admiration for the female anatomy. "You shouldn't go get them reduced. Breasts are a beautiful thing." While 40 laughed beside the rapper, the "Find Your Love' performer let loose about a secret possession in his collection. "I actually have an entire trunk, I think there's about 4[00] or 500 bras in this trunk," Drake said. "It's a black trunk and I carry it with me on the road. It's pretty much every bra I've ever received."

During the exchange, Nardwuar presented the Young Money affiliate with a vinyl soundtrack from the blaxploitation film 'Coffy.' Drake, visibly surprised, held the collector's item, decorated with Pam Grier's image, and revealed some shocking information about the popular movie star. "This woman... Oh man, this is gonna sound so weird," he continued, "When I first discovered what masturbation was, I used to jerk-off to Pam Grier. I think Pam Grier is really responsible for shaping my taste in women if you really look at her."

Drake's current fling, Maliah Michelle, shares some of the actress's voluptuous assets.
