M.I.A. is back with the first video from her new album. The not yet titled disc will be her third and is a follow up to her wildly successful cd 'Kala'. Which was driven by the hypnotic single "Paper Planes".

M.I.A. told NME this album contained "no gimmicks".

The lead song "Born Free" and it's accompanying video will be a complete shock for anyone expecting another crossover record.

The video is brutal, violent and is sure to get banned in almost every country.

As the soap opera continues to play out and the drama unfolds, DJ Premier refutes the notion that rapper Guru was actually in sound mind, let alone conscious, when his farewell letter was penned.

During a tribute mix, Premo reflected on what's happened recently. Upon a visit, the DJ spoke on how there seemed to be a lack of treatment for Guru when it came to maintaining a particular appearance, questioning if his “caretaker” really had good intentions.

"From what I was hearing - him waking up, and writing and tweeting...there's no way! There's no way! We saw him - he looked so gone!

And if you love him, and you're care of him, why in the f*k did his nails look longer than a f**king ruler? [And he had a] clump afro. I've taken care of people in the hospital. You can wash their head, you can clean their nails up, clean their feet. His feet were swollen, and his toenails were really disgusting. So, because of that, it really f**ked me up."

Regardless of how the rapper felt about Premier trying to continue involvement in Gang Starr, the producer states that their history together can never be erased an d he will carry the name no matter what.

"When I saw Guru, it just really f**ked me up. I wore a Gang Starr shirt , first of all, just for the energy, and jus so he knew that's forever with us. Forever."

The US military will end its disaster relief mission in Haiti at the beginning of June, nearly six months after the massive earthquake struck.

There are currently 2,200 US troops in the country, down from a peak of 22,000 in February when large numbers were despatched to help the aid effort.

Some 500 National Guard troops and reservists will remain in Haiti to help aid workers, a US commander said.

January's quake killed up to 230,000 people and left one million homeless.

In the weeks following the disaster, the US sent around 22,000 military personnel to Haiti, some 7,000 on the ground and the rest on ships offshore.

"I expect us to - on or about 1 June - to be able to stand down the joint task force," said Lt Gen Ken Keen, who ended his stint as head of the operation on Sunday.

He said the military could step back mainly because of "the increasing capacity of non-government organisations that are really running much of the humanitarian efforts within the country".

Some 500 members of the Louisiana National Guard will arrive in Haiti before June and stay on in Haiti until September to help with rebuilding efforts.

In the immediate aftermath, US troops were involved in emergency relief operations.

Now they are helping move people from makeshift camps to safer locations as the rainy season nears.

The scale of the US deployment provoked some criticism that aid deliveries were delayed while troops were rushed in.

Gen Keen said he felt, given the scale of the disaster, that the military operations went well and saved lives.

But he said lessons should be learned, allowing the military to assess needs in a disaster more quickly and improve logistics and co-ordination.

Anticipating challenges sooner was key, Gen Keen said, "such like what are you going to do with 1,000 homeless Haitians as we developed camps?

"These camps that have developed in Port-au-Prince area, nearly 1,300, according to the UN, developed spontaneously. They were not, obviously, set up and organised in any fashion."

Video After The Jump

On Mondays, we usually bring you our main pick, but we had to start this week by saluting mixtapes. We're proud that so many MCs are stepping their mixtape game up. The mixtape world is strong, potent and competitive right now.


This year alone, we've seen Fabolous, Wiz Khalifa, Jim Jones and Asher Roth drop product off in the streets and the Internet. The next few weeks are going to be flooded with ferocity, with Young Jeezy and T.I. just to name a couple, dropping soon. Long live the underground!

We asked Drake — the guy with the biggest mixtape of the past few years, So Far Gone — what he thought about the state of mixtapes right now. He said everyone has to come with their best.

"I think that when creating a mixtape, you have to approach it with a selfless mind-set," Drake told us. "A mixtape can't be the songs that don't make your album, or songs that aren't good enough to make your album make your mixtape — unless you're that good. There aren't that many people that are that good. I'm not that good. That mixtape [So Far Gone] is me working my hardest. It wasn't 'Oh, here are the songs I'm gonna give away to you 'cause I have better songs coming.' A mixtape has become an album.

"Before, I remember people used to be in the studio cutting songs, and they would be like, 'Oh, that song is OK. I'll just put it on my mixtape,' " he added. "Now a mixtape is an actual tool. It's a format you need. You don't necessarily need it, but it can be useful. Like with Fab and the other guys, I know they do a lot of rapping on other guys' beats. It's hard to tour like that, as incredible as it may be. Now Wayne, when the No Ceilings set comes on, it's ridiculous. It's hard to rap over other people's songs and have it be timeless. With So Far Gone, when I did flip other people's songs, half the time people didn't know what song it was. I tried to pick stuff that was new or rare or just like an album cut. But yeah, man, if I use somebody else's beat, I try to make a song out of it."

ASHEVILLE, N.C. -- An armed man who was spotted at a North Carolina airport parking lot just after Air Force One departed and said he wanted to see the president was to appear before a judge Monday.

Authorities arrested Joseph Sean McVey, 23, of Coshocton, Ohio, on Sunday afternoon at the Asheville Regional Airport and charged him with going armed in terror of the public, a misdemeanor.

A first appearance in court was scheduled for Monday, said Sgt. John Lutz of the Buncombe County jail, where McVey was being held on $100,000 bond.

McVey told an officer in the airport parking lot he wanted to see the president and he had a car equipped with police gear, including a siren and flashing lights, though he did not work in law enforcement, authorities said.

Security was heightened at the airport Sunday because President Barack Obama was leaving after spending the weekend vacationing in Asheville.

At about 2 p.m., airport police saw McVey get out of a maroon car with Ohio plates and that he had a sidearm, airport police Capt. Kevan Smith said. Both airport police and the Secret Service questioned him and he was taken into custody. The suspect was nowhere near the president's plane, which had just departed, and was in a rental car return lot that is open to the public, Smith said.

His car was equipped with clear LED law enforcement-style strobe lights in the front and rear dash, Smith said. The car also had a mounted digital camera in the front window, four large antennas on the trunk lid, and under the steering wheel was a working siren box.

When McVey got out of the car, he was listening to a handheld scanner and radio that had a remote earpiece, Smith said. Police said he was monitoring local agencies and had formulas for rifle scopes on a note in his cup holder. Police did not immediately elaborate on what the formulas might mean.

McVey gave authorities an Ohio driver's license, but a computer check failed to show the number was valid, police said. His hometown of Coshocton is about halfway between Pittsburgh and Columbus, Ohio.

When Officer Kaleb Rice asked him what he was doing, McVey told him he heard the president was in town and wanted to see him.

Rice removed the firearm and took McVey into custody.

The investigation into what McVey was doing with a gun, with formulas for rifle scopes and why his car was equipped with police gear was continuing, Smith said. The Secret Service had no comment on the arrest Sunday, deferring to airport police.

James Cameron didn't need 3-D to break this record.

Just four days after debuting on store shelves, "Avatar" has sold 2.7 million Blu-ray discs to consumers in the U.S. and Canada, according to 20th Century Fox -- more Blu-rays than any previous movie has sold. The previous record holder, "The Dark Knight," has sold 2.5 million Blu-rays since its debut 16 months ago.

Fox also sold 4 million standard definition DVDs. The combined total makes "Avatar" the biggest DVD launch of the year, breaking a previous mark of 4 million Blu-ray and DVDs combined set by "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" on its first weekend in March.

"Avatar" also debuted Thursday in France, where it sold a combined 400,000 units on DVD and Blu-ray, the biggest-ever launch in the country. It is at the top of the charts in Germany as well, although specific sales figures weren't immediately available. It goes on sale in Great Britain on Monday.

The huge debut for "Avatar" on home video dispels concerns that consumers wouldn't want to see it on a 2-D home television after most watched it in theaters in 3-D. Eighty-three percent of "Avatar's" $746.4-million domestic gross has come from theaters with 3-D screens. More than 70% of its $1.975-billion international gross has come from 3-D.

The news comes as Fox recently signed deals with kiosk renter Redbox and DVD-by-mail firm Netflix that keep "Avatar" and all of the studio's future releases off the services until 28 days after they go on sale.

"Avatar" provides a much needed shot in the arm to Hollywood's home entertainment business, which saw its revenue fall 8% in the first three months of the year and 5% last year.

On a Thursday evening (April 22) media round up that included VIBE, multi-divisional boxing champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. was in rare form. During the telephone conference call, the unplugged pugilist, who is set to fight three-time division champion Shane Mosley on May 1, said his future opponent is not even in his class, pointing out his past steroid use, of which Mosely used during his 2003 win against Oscar De La Hoya.

Shane is a solid welterweight,” the undefeated Mayweather began diplomatically. “But I don’t know where I would put Mosely. I can’t see how a guy could call himself great or putting himself as a future hall-of-famer. This is a guy…we don’t know how long he was taking enhancement drugs. He’s been around the sport for a long, long time. He’s done some things in this sport. But he’s a fighter that always worries about landing one big shot. And I worry about being smart and winning. When Shane punches, a lot of times he closes his eyes. We are two totally different fighters.”

When Mayweather’s attention turned to rival Manny Pacquiao, who like Pretty Boy has been called boxing’s best pound-for-pound fighter today, the brazen talent ripped, “Manny Pacquiao struggled twice with [Juan Manuel] Marquez, which we know he really lost. And we know he’s been knocked out twice. He’s been out-boxed by Erik Morales, but they still give him Boxer of the Decade. So that’s something I don’t understand. He beat a Miguel Cotto that was stretched by me. I’m trying to find out what it really is.” Mayweather then insinuated Pacquiao’s own performance enhancement drug usage. “All I’m saying is if you are a clean athlete, take a test,” he said. “Show the world. I’m a natural.”

But perhaps Mayweather’s most eyebrow-raising comment came when he proclaimed he was the superior fighter to storied middleweight boxing legend Sugar Ray Robinson and the first three-time heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali—who is often universally praised as the greatest fighter of all time. “Why not?” he explained. “I take my hat off to them. I got respect for Sugar Ray Robinson; I got respect for Muhammad Ali. But I’m a man just like they’re a man. I put on my pants on just like they [do]. What makes them any better than I am? Because they fought 1000 fights and my era is totally different. It’s pay-per-view now, so things change. It’s out with the old, in with the new. Muhammad was one hell of a fighter. But Floyd Mayweather is the best. Sugar Ray Robinson was one hell of a fighter, but Floyd Mayweather is the best.”

Mayweather Jr. (40-0, 25 KOs) and Mosley (46-5, 39 KOs) will square up at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas for a welterweight pay-per-view super fight that most certainly will produce drama.

(AllHipHop News) Cypress Hill group member B-Real has weighed in growing division between older West coast rappers and a crop of new emcees from various parts of California.

Cypress Hill and Ice Cube were engaged in a feud on wax between 1995 and 1997.

While he didn’t call out names, Ice Cube took to his blog to address rumors that new talent from the West coast like Jay Rock, Glasses Malone, Crooked I and Bishop Lamont, felt the veterans were not supporting the new artists.

He’s gotta a point man, he don’t owe anybody nothing,” B-Real told AllHipHop.com. “That’s just the reality of it. He doesn’t own them nothing.

B-Real was referring to a controversial statement Ice Cube made in March on his official blog, while promoting his new album, I Am the West.

"I don't even remember ever meeting these clowns or even being in the same room with any of 'em. They can't make a name for themselves so they need help from the O/G's. I refuse the throw'em a life line. f**k'em. It ain't my job to make nobody famous," Ice Cube stated.

B-Real said the real culprit is radio on the West coast, in particular and that local radio stations were over saturated with artists from the South.

You got a few people doing some real cool s**t but then it all starts to sound generic,” B-Real told AllHipHop.com. “And then you can’t differentiate the good from the sh**ty. It starts to all sound the same. And I think that’s the problem that’s going on down there. But I can’t hate, do your thing.”

As for the West coast artists, B-Real agreed that it was important to continue to support the new batch of artists, even if local radio does not.

These guys ain’t getting no love from the radio, they ain’t getting love from nobody. But once and a while we gotta show these guys some love,” B-Real told AllHipHop.com. “These are the next generation of dudes so we have to support them.”

Video After The Jump

A Fort Worth, Texas high school teacher resigned this week after a video surfaced of him "slap boxing" one of his students.

Brad Graves was a teacher at Castleberry High School where he would challenge some of his 9th grade students to box him.

This evidently had been going on for quite a while. It wasn't until a video was posted on youtube of one of the matches did he finally get in trouble.

The match didn't end until the student said, "I am already bleeding, come on."

Another student, 15 year old Samuel Rubio said the teacher approached him during class saying, "let's go box in the restroom". Once there, the teacher started throwing hard "body shots".

Superintendent Gary S. Jones said he thought Graves had sparred with students at least three other times.

"We don't slap-box," Jones said. "We don't hit kids. It's unacceptable."

The teacher said he was just trying to motivate the students.

"His intentions might have been good," Jones said. "But his behavior was unacceptable. He was acting like one of the kids."

Graves resigned after meeting with school officials on Monday.

Wyclef Jean returned from Haiti yesterday (April 22) with three girls who will receive artificial limbs through his Yele Haiti Foundation according to AllHipHop.

The girls, two age 17 and one 8 years old are victims of the devastating earthquake that hit Haiti in January.

Wycelf's foundation had come under some criticism from a few websites that claimed money donated wasn't being used in the manner it was supposed to be.

But Wyclef continues to work tirelessly to help the people of his homeland as this proves.
