Young Jeezy celebrates President Obama's reelection by releasing an official music video to his politically charged anthem "We Done It Again."
The Snowman released a statement via MTV regarding the song:
"To every ghetto In the world. In 2008 we celebrated history with 'My President' is black. In 2012 I want Barack to know we got his back and we 'Done It Again.' We don't wait for history, we claim victory!"
Lil Wayne's I Am Not A Human Being II album is coming out... eventually. The follow up to his 2010 gold selling album has been pushed back to a not yet revealed 2013 date according to Billboard.
The project was originally scheduled to drop in November. That date was moved to December 11th, which would have put him right in line for Christmas shoppers. Now that date has been cancelled.
No reason was given for the latest push back. Hopefully it's not health related. The Young Money boss suffered two seizures recently and was unable to appear in court this week to testify in his lawsuit against Quincy Jones III.
He was suing QDII for making what he claimed was an unauthorized biography of him.
Weezy lost both his case and the countersuit QDIII filed against him and was ordered to pay the film producer $2,195,000.

Coming off the successful first week of sales where he moved 242,000 units of good kid, m.A.A.d city, Kendrick Lamar sat down with French based website Daymolition to talk about that album's success and more.
K. Dot said he was ready for the big first week because he gave fans a good concept album full of fresh and new sounds. He added that he got good advice from Dr. Dre during the recording process.
"Just really continue the work ethic. As far as actually putting in the time to make something that can stick for many years," Kendrick said of the advice he got from Dre. "Just continue the passion for it. Watching him do it, watching him work [and] watching Snoop work. All of them still got the love and the passion for it so it makes me go ten times harder as a new artist."
Kendrick explains what the song "The Jig Is Up" means, what he means when he says GKMC is "classic worthy," but will take years before it can be considered a true classic and whether there is competition between Black Hippy group members.
"I'm competitive with them. I'm competitive with Jay-Z. I'm competitive with Nas. I'm competitive with Kanye. I'm in the big leagues now. I can't be looking at them as big homies for the rest of my life," Kendrick explains. "I have to go out there and continue the legacy of great music"
Kendrick also speaks on the difference between working an a mixtape and an album.

Live TV can be tricky for reporters. A simple slip of the tongue and you can find yourself the butt of jokes from coast to coast. It's even worse when you have two bloopers within seconds of each other.
That's what happened to reporter Blake Burman of Miami/Fort Lauderdale's Channel 7 News yesterday as he was reporting on the presidential election race from camp Obama.
"Not necessarily info, but just kind of giving you a little bit of what you see here. That's Wyclef Jean giving an interview," Blake said as he nodded his head towards will.i.am.
After being corrected by someone off camera who was just as clueless as he was Blake embarrasses himself even further by mistaking will for a different rapper.
"Wale, excuse me... Wale. Got my artists mixed up."
About 30 seconds later Blake finally got it right, but the damage had been done by that point. This video is definitely going viral. Check it out below

Lady Gaga producer DJ White Shadow is no Nicki Minaj fan. He believes the Young Money star is "lucky, not talented."
Shadow started going at Nicki back in January when he accused her and David Guetta of copying Rihanna's song "Only Girl in the World."
He resumed his Twitter attack on the Harajuku Barbie earlier this week.
"Ok. Nicki Minaj. F*ck you. Get a grip. You are lucky, not talented. Stop. Please stop. XO. DJWS," he wrote on the social networking site.
After deleting that Tweet he immediately posted another shot at Nicki.
Shadow later wrote that he wasn't hating on Nicki, just stating his opinion.
"You can be judgmental. My views are my own. I am by myself. I don't hate. It's not hate, just dislike for poor taste."
Nicki has yet to respond.

The world is laughing at us," Trump wrote in an epic diatribe. "This election is a total sham and a travesty. We are not a democracy! Our country is now in serious and unprecedented trouble...like never before. Our nation is a once great nation divided! The electoral college is a disaster for a democracy. Hopefully the House of Representatives can hold our country together for four more years...stay strong and never give up!"

Just a couple of days ago we reported on an interview Juvenile gave to Complex where he seemed to have a lot of resentment toward his former label and accused Lil Wayne of being scared to leave.
Things have changed rapidly in a short amount of time because the "Ha" rapper is now singing a different tune. Not only is Juvenile not upset with Birdman and Slim anymore, he is back to doing business with them.
Check out the statement he gave to AllHipHop about his current relationship with YMCMB.
“I am truly excited to say that it’s a new day. There are a lot of old interviews out there that can reflect old negativity. Luckily, in recent months, circumstances brought me and Cash Money back together and I was able to re-unite with members of my original crew. That’s why we all have decided to leave negativity in the past. I am truly looking forward to the future and to my future work with Baby, Lil Wayne , YMCMB and Cash Money. “Picture Perfect” is the beginning and we have a lot more to come. Get ready!”
Hopefully that works out well for Juve.

It was a huge night for President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden.
Video And Pics After The Jump
Via NY Daily News
After a tense and bitter campaign, President Obama rolled to reelection Tuesday night, winning a new chance to repair the nation’s economy and fulfill the promises of hope and change he made four years ago.
First Pennsylvania, then New Hampshire, Wisconsin, Iowa and Colorado fell to Obama. When Ohio was called for the incumbent, a roar went up at Obama’s Chicago headquarters.
Moments later, Obama sent this message on Twitter: “We’re all in this together. That’s how we campaigned, and that’s who we are.”
The First Family takes it all in.

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney delivers his concession speech at an election night rally at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center.
The nation’s first African-American President will take his second oath of office on Jan. 20, having beaten back a Republican Party that vowed to make him a one-term President.
The Romneys are gracious in defeat.
He will face a divided capital — Democrats held onto the Senate while Republicans remain in control of the House of Representatives — and a looming fiscal cliff that could slash government spending and raise taxes on most Americans.
Both sides had settled in for a long Election Night, preparing to potentially wait days for an outcome. Instead, the night ended with surprising and decisive swiftness.
Early returns showed neck-and-neck contests in virtually every one of the nine battleground states. But they fell one after another, just as the polls predicted, almost all going for the President.
President Barack Obama supporters cheer while watching the returns prior to his election night rally in Chicago, November 6, 2012
Obama’s Midwest firewall — Ohio, Iowa and Wisconsin — held. The President also captured Virginia, a state Romney needed to win, giving him at least 303 electoral votes as the calendar flipped to Wednesday.
Romney lost his native Michigan and current home state of Massachusetts. Combined with his loss in Wisconsin, the birthplace of his running mate Paul Ryan, the GOP ticket became the first national ticket to lose both candidates’ home states since Democrats George McGovern and Sargent Shriver did in 1972.
Romney supporters react at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center after media outlets projected a loss for their candidate.
Despite Obama’s decisive advantage in the Electoral College, the popular vote remained close. With 88% of the precincts reporting, at 2:49 a.m. Wednesday, Obama led Romney 50% to 49%, a margin of nearly 1.4 million votes.
The suspenseful and extraordinarily expensive election drew to a close as Americans — millions still recovering from the havoc wreaked by Hurricane Sandy — braved long lines at the polls to cast their votes.
For most, the nation’s massive debt and struggling economy remained at the forefront. Sixty percent of those questioned in exit polls called the the economy their No. 1 issue. But more said Bush was to blame for the current conditions rather than Obama.
President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden congratulate each other after Tuesday's victory.
Obama won despite a national unemployment rate of 7.9%, the highest any President has overcome since Franklin Roosevelt during the Great Depression.
Four years ago, Obama’s lofty oratory and this historic nature of his candidacy drew hundreds of thousands of people to rallies and inspired legions of new voters who helped capture several states that had been traditional GOP strongholds.
But Democrats’ enthusiasm was not nearly as high this time after many of the President’s promises were lost to Washington gridlock and his soaring rhetoric was weighed down by the burdens of office. He struggled to frame his major legislative accomplishments — in particular the national health care reform known as Obamacare — and his party took a beating in the 2010 midterm.
The crowd in Times Square celebrates together Tuesday night as news outlets begin reporting Obama as the projected winner of the presidential race.
This time, Obama’s campaign was forced to wage a gritty, county-by-county fight. His team spent four years building an elaborate ground game that turned out a winning coalition that looked similar to the one that first carried him into office: women, young voters, African-Americans and, most especially, Latinos.
“I think that shows you how the demographic shifts in the party compositions that started in 2008 have grown bigger,” said Prof. Wendy Schiller of Brown University. “I don’t think you can be as white, male, and as conservative as the GOP was this year and still win a national election.”
Greg Kearney, 18, a Fordham University student (center), celebrates Obama's election victory in Rockefeller Center with a cigar.
The Obama campaign trotted out a team of indefatigable surrogates, including Vice President Biden and former President Bill Clinton, who criss-crossed the battlegrounds day after day. And they relentlessly promoted early voting — more than 30 million Americans cast their ballots before Election Day, including Obama himself.
The President is now the third consecutive incumbent to win a second term.
The bitterness that was evident throughout the race was clear even in the campaign’s final moments.
For more than an hour after the networks declared Obama the winner, Romney remained inside his headquarters, delaying what the math said was inevitable. Like his father before him, the failed White House bid likely ends Romney’s political career.
Ryan, however, won reelection to his House seat in Wisconsin.
Supporters go wild at McCormick Place in Chicago as President Obama wins the election.
The candidates, their parties and outside groups known as Super PACs spent $2.6 billion on the campaign, by far the most in history.
Confusion ran rampant at polling places in states ravaged by Superstorm Sandy and long lines of voters were reported in battlegrounds like Florida, Pennsylvania and Ohio. Both campaigns dispatched lawyers to scores of polling sites to help their supporters cast their ballots — and to gather information for potential lawsuits that could challenge the election’s outcome.
Touting his business experience, Romney pledged to jumpstart an economy that showed consistent, but small, growth during Obama’s first term.
A one-term governor from Massachusetts, Romney failed to capture the Republican nomination in 2008 but entered this year’s GOP primary sweepstakes as the early favorite. But the lengthy primary process, which at times resembled a circus sideshow featured carnival barkers like Herman Cain, Donald Trump and Michele Bachmann, was a harder slog than expected and left Romney bruised heading into a general election fight with Obama’s battle-hardened crew.
The incumbent’s team, based in Chicago rather than Washington, made the tactical decision to spend huge sums of campaign cash early to define Romney as a heartless corporate raider and flip-flopper.
Romney gained ground as a result of his strong performance in the first debate with Obama. But as Election Day neared, Romney’s momentum slowed — in part due to the superstorm.
As Sandy dominated news coverage, Obama took a break from the campaign trail to manage the federal government’s response to the storm, which allowed him to provide leadership in a time of crisis. Obama also sparked a bipartisan bromance with New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who had been a top Romney surrogate.
“It was probably a little bit of a lot of things,” a senior Romney adviser told the Daily News. “And when we finally got our footing, along came Sandy.”

The Snowman gets political on this deep new track "We Done It Again."

A lot has changed in Dame Dash's life since Roc-A-Fella Records split apart in 2004. One of his former partners, Kareem "Biggs" Burke, is doing time after being sentenced to five years in prison for conspiring to distribute more than 100 kilos of marijuana.
His other former partner, Jay-Z, has moved on to achieve enormous success in both his business ventures and music career.
Dame has had to bounce back from well documented financial problems. In 2011 he admitted to owing the IRS more than $2 million.
"I owe way more than $2 million in taxes," Dame explained in an interview with Sway in the Morning. "That must have just been the IRS -- Nah, nah, I'm f*cked up...It's the price of business; it is what it is. I owe taxes: I got to pay. They're auditing me. When you're a business man, you have a lot of businesses, a lot of times they think you're laundering money or you're pretending you're writing things off that you don't. I'm a true businessman. As you know, I believe in my independence, I have no partners, so every dollar I make goes right back into every business I have."
In a new interview with GlobalGrind's Sharon Carpenter, the Harlem native talks about what he is up to now.
Dame owns an art gallery in New York, is the CEO of Bluroc Records, owns two magazines, has a motor oil business (Dash Motors) and runs the website DD172. When asked if he missed the Roc-A-Fella days he said not at all.
"Hell no... Only because I'm 41 right? Being in a rap environment is mostly being around a lot of men," Dame explained. "And they're young men, and they're aggressive. I'd prefer to be in fashion, a place where there is art. A place where there's no bullets and no security. I don't miss those days, but I know for the age I was - I was in my 20's. I was having a lot of fun."
Dame looks at what Kanye West and Hov have been able to accomplish since the split and he's happy because he feels like he played a big part in what they have become.
"Look at Jay-Z, look at Kanye. Every success they have I'm proud of," he says. "Every time I see them on television I know what I did."
Even though Dame says his business partnership with Jay-Z was a success he still isn't quite sure what happened to their friendship.
"I need Dr. Phil for that one."
