If Nicki Minaj's debut cd fails to live up to expectations it won't be because of a lack of quality beats.

Rap-Up is reporting the Young Money femcee has her eyes set on two of the biggest names in the business in Kanye West and Swizz Beatz.

She told Rap-Up she sees Kanye contributing, “I’m probably definitely going to work with Kanye,”

While prepping "Massive Attack", the first single and video for the album Nicki also mentioned her desire to work with Swizzie.

"On my debut, I worked with Sean Garrett. And probably Swizz Beatz, he’s gonna send me something.”

While she didn't mentioned them specifically expect collaborations from the Young Money camp on the currently untitled album.

On Tuesday night, Young Jeezy and his Mob Squad lit up Madison Square Garden during the Blueprint 3 Tour stop.

"It's not a rap concert; it's a show," Jeezy said just hours before the performance. "Me and Jay sat down and talked about it. That was the whole thing: 'Let's give them a concert, not just a rap show.' It's been working out that way. From start to finish, it's a whole show. Trey [Songz], me, Jay — from start to finish, it flows. It's kinda crazy, 'cause we got the same type of fans. It's not awkward. You could be on tour with somebody, you see Jeezy and Black Eyed Peas, it's like, 'What the hell?' "


Young just put out the first record from his Thug Motivation 103 album, "Lose My Mind." The record features Plies and debuted in a live performance Saturday during the Blueprint 3 Tour stop in Atlanta.

"To keep it all the way 100 with you, we did a record called 'So Sad,' " Jeezy said about how he got with Plies. "Before I could put it out, the record leaked, so we was good on that. Then I was gonna do a record for him [for his album]. I did the record, by the way, but I had 'Lose My Mind.' I done three verses. I listened to it a couple of times. I said, 'Let me try something. I'mma put somebody on the record.' I was doing a joint for him at the time and happened to see him. We was doing something for [NBA] All-Star [Weekend]. I was like, 'Yo, I'mma get you this record, see if you like it.' He sent it right back. I went with it. Just to warm up the streets, let them know I'm coming."

Jeezy said he decided to premiere the song in front of the crowd at the Philips Arena on Saturday to let them know that he has something concrete done and the album is coming soon.

"It was new, so it was cool. But everybody was like, 'When is TM103 coming out?' But it's like the block: I ain't gonna put it out there unless it's rock, unless it's hard, unless it's right," he explained. "I wanted to get in the kitchen, in the lab, and do my thing and put it out when it's time. I'm ready now. It don't stop there. It's go time."

Young described "Lose My Mind" as a quick snapshot of his nightlife.

"To me, it's my life," Jeezy said. "That's how I feel sometimes when I go out. If you listen to me, I said it a few times: 'Lost my mind and my cell phone in the same night.' No two days are the same. ... I been partying my whole life. That's how you feel the next day. You killed them, and you left. You was looking good, shining good, there's no limit to what you can have in the club. That's how it's been for us before music. 'Lose My Mind' is doing what the hell I wanna do in the club. If it's 100 bottles of rosé, if it's 40 bottles of Belvedere, if it's all the kush in the world. I'mma do what I wanna do. When I leave there, I don't wanna remember nothing. I just wanna wake up and do the same thing again. That's what 'Lose Your Mind' is about. You gotta have life your way. If you ain't losing your mind, you ain't partying right."

Young said his album will drop sometime in June. And, of course, we'll get his mixtape, Trap or Die 2 with DJ Drama, sometime before that.

"The date we originally wanted to go with, it didn't work for neither one of us. It's cool, though, because we never rush things," Jeezy said about the mixtape's delay. "Once we get through all the politics, I think the streets will have that."

The Snowman did promise to keep leaking songs from the mixtape in the interim

Last month, a new track called "Body Bags," featuring Cypress Hill frontman B-Real, Xzibit and rising rapper Young De hit the web. The collaboration wasn't just for one of the MCs' project, it is part of a group effort between the trio called the Serial Killaz.

We caught up with Young De on the set of Xzibit's new music video, "Hurt Locker," recently where he revealed the group's formation.

He said the three joined forces after a chance meeting in the studio, where they began creating new music and couldn't deny their chemistry.

"The way that it actually came together was I had met Xzibit in the studio. I walked into the studio and there's Xzibit, and I got introduced to him," Young De explained to BallerStatus.com. "He's like 'Hey, you're Young De, who's on B-Real's 'Don't Ya Dare Laugh,' ' (the first single off B-Real solo debut, Smoke N Mirrors). He's like 'I love that song. I need to get your on something.' So, we started working from there, and we just really clicked up ... mentally, like on the same page, work ethic-wise.

"And, I've been working with B-Real the last two years. That's the person who's showed me a lot about this game so far. So, we started by [Xzibit] hopping on one of the songs, because me and B-Real were working on an album together. It came from that," he added.

The Serial Killaz album is nearly complete, says De. However, you won't be hearing too much from it just yet. Because members Xzibit and B-Real have their own projects in the works -- X's next solo album, MMX, set to drop sometime this year; and B-Real is gearing up for a new Cypress Hill album, set for April.

Further details, including the project's title, guests, producers, etc. are unknown at press time.

Young De did say to expect a "themed album" though, before declining to give more details. He did express is excitement though, saying once the two hip-hop vets came to him with the idea, he jumped at the opportunity.

"Number one, I feel very blessed to be even ... when B-Real and Xzibit come to you and go 'Hey we're gonna do a group together' ... you go like 'Hell ya! (laughs) Where do you want me to stand?'" the rapper said. "It was like an organic thing."

Until more Serial Killaz music leaks, you can expect to hear more songs and music videos from X's upcoming MMX album. Xzibit told us that he'll be leaking both visuals and tracks leading up to the album's release, which hadn't been announced at press time.

Cypress Hill, on the other hand, are set to drop their first new group album since 2004's Till Death Do Us Part. Their new album, titled Rise Up, is set for release April 20 (4/20), of course. You can download their first single, "It Ain't Nothin'," at their official website CypressHill.com.

East Hampton Town Police have arrested a Florida woman for trespassing on an East Hampton property she apparently believed belonged to the rapper Sean Combs.

Police arrested Cemelia Green, 35, of Jacksonville on February 22 and charged her with criminal mischief in the second degree and criminal trespass in the second degree, both misdemeanors. The arrest took place at a house on Bianco Road about a week after police were called to the location for another incident involving Ms. Green. Mr. Combs owns a house on Hedges Banks Road.

On February 12, police were informed that a woman had been into headquarters requesting the location of Mr. Combs’s residence. Police were then called to the house on Bianco Road by a maintenance worker and found Ms. Green, who, police said, had told the worker that she was married to Mr. Combs and owned the property. Police said they approached Ms. Green and she left without incident.

But on February 22, while on routine patrol, officers found Ms. Green walking behind the house, and when they approached her she got into her car and locked the doors. Police said they canvassed the area and found that a sliding glass door had been broken recently. The officer was able to talk Ms. Green out of the car, police said, and she was arrested and taken to headquarters. Bail was set at $5,000 and Ms. Green’s vehicle was impounded.

NEW YORK — A court spokesman says rap star Lil Wayne's sentencing in a New York City gun case has been postponed because of a courthouse fire.

The rapper had been expected to start a one-year jail term after sentencing Tuesday. He pleaded guilty in October to attempted criminal possession of a weapon.

Courts spokesman David Bookstaver said the sentencing was among proceedings canceled due a basement fire at a Lower Manhattan courthouse.

The 27-year-old rapper entered his plea in October. He admitted having a loaded gun on his tour bus in July 2007.

He has become one of rap's biggest names and music's biggest sellers in recent years.

(AllHipHop News) A promotional billboard for Atlanta rapper T.I.’s AKOO clothing brand has encountered less than positive reactionamong residents in Newark, New Jersey.





The billboard, which is prominently displayed on the corner ofMarket and Washington Streets, features a woman knelt down in front of a
guy whose jeans are unbuckled with his underwear exposed and the
woman’s hands grabbing his jeans.

Those noticing theadvertisement did not hesitate in expressing their disdain as they
deemed it “offensive.”


Founded by T.I. and fellow Grand Hustle Entertainment co-founderJason Geter, AKOO offers various types of clothing that include blue
jeans, jackets and shirts.

The clothing brand’s name is anacronym that stands for A King of One’s Self.

Newark major CoryBooker echoed the concerns of onlookers over the suggestive
advertisement while vowing to take a stand against questionable images
that are present in his city.





“So often when I am out in the community I see kids wearingtheir pants too low and others using inappropriate language in public,”
Booker said in a statement. “I will work with my city council to see if
we can address it so we don’t see these types of advertisements
displayed in our city in the near future.”





News of the controversy triggered an immediate reaction fromAKOO, which issued a statement on the controversy and criticism
surrounding the billboard.





“The AKOO brand has always aimed to inspire individualism andcreativity. Our advertising campaign was not created to offend or insult
anyone but to simply provoke dialogue and thought regarding male/female
sexuality within urban culture,” the company said as it alluded to
exposing more sides of the brand in future promotions.

“We hopethat as more of the campaign is debuted, people will see the
multifaceted personality of AKOO.”


Despite AKOO’s statement, the company attempt was not enough tosay Newark City Council President Mildred Crump, who feels the AKOO
billboard is an example of a lack of regard over the impact of images
that paint a negative picture of the city.





“I’m so sick of people seeing Newark as a place where they cando whatever they want,” she said. “They think they can put it in a Black
community and nobody is going to say or do anything,”

LeBron James could reportedly have a new number next season, but Cleveland Cavaliers fans hope the words remain the same.

James filed paperwork to switch from No. 23 to No. 6, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reported on Monday. He beat a Wednesday deadline to make the request.

The All-Star said in November that he was thinking of giving up 23 out of respect for his hero Michael Jordan, but at that time he was "50-50," according to the newspaper.

"I've done it," James told the Plain Dealer. "I already sent it in. I'm going to be No. 6."

Six is James' jersey number on the Olympic team, but the NBA does not have to grant his request. If James switches teams, he can choose any number he wishes. The change only applies if he stays with the Cavaliers.

James will be part of the vaunted 2010 free-agent class that includes Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. While Bulls fans would like to see him try to make No. 6 as legendary as No. 23 in Chicago, New York has also maneuvered to have enough cap space to sign James.

Cleveland can sign James to a longer, more lucrative deal, however.

NEW YORK — Soulja Boy Tell'em has vowed to prove himself as an MC on his next album, The DeAndre Way.

For the effort, the rapper has already said he wants Jay-Z and Eminem onboard. So far, he's been in the studio with Kanye West, and Soulja said 'Ye was impressed with his upgraded material.

"When I was in the studio, I played him a couple of joints, and then he just said, 'Damn, he's really starting to go hard,' " Soulja Boy told MTV News on the red carpet of BET's "Rip the Runway." "And I was like, 'Yeah, you feel me?' ... Out of all the artists to get the go-ahead or the co-sign from, it was Kanye."


Recently, Soulja Boy and West have been collaborating on material for 'Ye's next album. West requested the teen sensation to help produce tracks for him.

Soulja Boy spoke to MTV News late last year, after he created three tracks "back-to-back-to-back" for West, and said the sessions were beneficial to both musicians.

"Me working with him, collaborating on different beats," he said of working with West. "Him showing me a lot of stuff I didn't know. Me showing him a lot of stuff he didn't know. He had an ear for my sound. Of course I had an ear for all the stuff he did. Genius! You know what I mean?"

The O.D.: A Mixtape Daily Exclusive

French Montana is in no rush to put out his debut album. One of Akon's newest signees said he has enough money to continue serving up material through mixtapes, such as his latest, Mac Wit Da Cheese 2. His first album has to be classic, French said.

"My album is set for late summer," French said last week while shooting a video for his mixtape track "Bad Habits," with guest Bun B. "It's called Excuse My French. I'm just working. I wanna come with a masterpiece, man. I'm not no overnight rapper. I'm comfortable with where I'm at. My followers are my real followers. I ain't no phase. I'm here to stay. [The release] could be late summer, it could come out past then, as long as it's a masterpiece when we put it out. ... You gotta understand, that's what they gonna remember you for, your first album. Biggie's Ready to Die, UGK's first album — you wanna come with the same thing. The title gotta live up to the music."

Bun and French share a mutual respect for each other's grinds, Montana said.

"The video is called 'Bad Habits,' " Montana explained. "Everybody got a bad habit. I sent [the track] to Bun. Bun heard it, laid the verse in like five minutes. I sent it to him, he called me back in five minutes. I was like, 'Oh my God.' "

"I was in the lab, I was already in that zone," Bun added. "It was something that I felt made sense, that I felt represented his movement, repped my movement, and we spoke to people on a real level. That's one thing about UGK music. We can't be fabricating sh--. We kept it real with each other.
