Queens, New York veterans Mobb Deep and Nas are about to collaborate on a full length album.
The trio have teamed up for several bangers over the years, most recently on the Alchemist produced "Dog Sh*t" which was recorded after Prodigy's recent release from prison.
Havoc revealed the news to HipHopDX in a recent interview.
"We’re gonna do a Mobb Deep and Nas album. It hasn’t begun but we tipped the iceberg a little bit with the 'Dog Sh*t,'" Hav said. "I think as we was working, doing songs back and forth with Nas recently, I think it was just a mutual thought, like, 'Yo, let’s make a f*cking album.' Everybody was like, 'Yeah, that would be dope. F*ck it, what we waiting for? Let’s do it.'"
No word yet on when production will start on the album, but it's definitely one hip hop fans will be checking for.
Kim Kardashian is set to follow in the footsteps of her younger sister Khloe by marrying an NBA player.
Khloe married Los Angeles Lakers star Lamar Odom after dating him only one month. Now comes word that Kim has gotten engaged to New Jersey Nets player Kris Humphries after 6 months of seeing each other.
Humphries didn't go the cheap route either. TMZ is reporting he dropped $2 million on a Lorraine Schwartz designed ring that features a 16.5 carat emerald cut center stone flanked by two 2-carat trapezoids ... for a grand total of 20.5 carats.
Will the couple have a long and happy marriage? Weight in with your opinions in the comment section below.

Police in Salt Lake City, Utah have arrested a mother after uncovering her plan to pimp her 13-year old daughter's virginity to a man for $10,000.
32-year old Felicia Rea McClure has been charged with two counts of first degree felony aggravated sex abuse of a child and two counts of second degree felony sexual exploitation of a minor.
She and a man police identified only as "Don" had agreed to the deal, after McClure asked her daughter if she would be willing to lose her virginity to him according to ABC News.
The two took the girl to a Victoria's Secret store and had her model in thongs and bras for the man. Authorities say the girl initially agreed to do it, but later changed her mind, saying she wasn't ready for sex.
Salt Lake City District Attorney Sim Gill said the mother also took pictures of her daughter and sold them to another man named "Will."
"The photographs that were shown her buttocks was bare, so it's fairly graphic," said Gill.
Police were notified by McClure's boyfriend after he found texts on her cell phone detailing the plot.
The mom now faces 15 years to life in prison for each of the two first degree felony charges if convicted.
Rapper Wale and a woman who once had an affair with terrorist Osama bin Laden, got into a heated argument last night (May 23) on Twitter over the choice of women Wale used in his "Pretty Girls" video.
Kola Boof, an Egyptian-Sudanese-American novelist, activist and poet attacked the rapper in a series of angry tweets accusing him of being a "self-hating n*ggerstock b*stard," because of his use of lighter skinned women in the video.
"There wasn't a single Black woman in "Pretty Girls"...so what in the f*ck was he saying about African women?? His own race?" she wrote. "WALE has all the f*cking power in the world as to WHO appears in his music videos. So shut that **LIE** down. As an African Mother....nothing is more disappointing or makes me more ashamed than the mindset of the Black Male."
"Our worst f*cking enemy on this planet...has turned out to be our own sorry ass self-hating sons. PERIOD. WALE is a little Punk B*tch Nigerian Skin Bleacher who wants to escape his own people & gets PAID 2 do so. Wale you ain't SH*T!!! But a f*cking disgrace to the African people!! F*cking Nigerian Goat motherf*cker. So many of these "B*TCH N*GGERS" need to be fucking Hung from Trees ......again. 500 yrs. & no growth."
Kola Boof
Wale, who was born to Nigerian immigrant parents, got wind of what was being said and finally replied back.
"Kola boof... I won't beef with you as a rapper, but as a proud black man with intellect. We can show the world what ignorance looks like," he said. "@kolaboof I can sit up here and say you were porking terrorist...like a lot of your peers say. But I'd rather not, because I'm ignorant to. Whatever relationship you had with Ol' Boy [bin Laden]. ..and my ignorance to THAT particular subject will keep me quiet. W/ that said u shd 2. your pretentious. Your a disgusting human being, an absolute disgrace to the very people you pretend to endorse."
While Wale eventually took the high road and stopped arguing there, Boof's rant went on for several more hours.
"If #WALE was my goddamn son I'd drown that Chimp-brained Nigerian N*ggerstock motherf*cker. And feed his ass to the Red Ants. Loser mofo!," she continued. "This man HATES US...hates our whole fucking existence & wants to escape blackness...and we making him rich!!??"
"I don't like Wale because he's AFRICAN yet hates Black Women & had to be FORCED to put 1 in his videos. To me....a man like WALE....is no different than a f*cking Clansmen. He just gets away with his sh*t bec. he's dark black. But let WALE have to decide between saving YOU from drowning and a European. He's a skin bleacher. Might as well be Jergen."
Well damn!!

Fellow Black Eyed Peas member Fergie has revealed to Hollyscoop that the lead vocalist & producer Will.i.am is ready to release his new solo effort called Black Einstein. In the meanwhile, the group will be taking a break from music to spend more personal time.
“I believe Will is coming out with a solo album, I’ve heard it, it’s called Black Einstein, and it’s amazing. I’ve been waiting for him to come out with this for so long, ’cause I want it. He won’t give it to me. I want it for the gym. He’s so amazing. Such a genius lyricist and I’m really excited for his project.”
Will’s previous album Songs About Girls was a mixed bag but failed on the charts. Hopefully, he will come back stronger with Black Einstein.
BeYoOwnBoss Ent is back with part 2 of their hilarious "ShawtBusShawty" cartoon parody.

Much has been made of Nicki Minaj being dubbed the new "Queen of Hip Hop." by Rolling Stone. She recently visited MTV's 'Funk Flex Full Throttle' show to talk about how she felt upon hearing the news, and whether or not she accepts the title.
"I was so excited because they're really respected," she said. "And then when I went on all the TV shows, they kept on saying, ‘She’s been dubbed the New Queen of Hip-Hop by Rolling Stone magazine,’ so I was like, that happened at the perfect time.”
The Young Money starlet had no idea they would be writing that about her beforehand and felt really humbled.
"I'm honored because obviously I've been working hard to get to this place. Whether or not I'm the queen of anything, you know everybody is going to have their own opinions," she continued. "I don’t do this thinking I’m the queen of this, I’m the queen of that. I just feel like I’m working hard and I just want people to recognize that.”
Next up for Nicki is a tour with Britney Spears. After that she expects to begin working on her sophomore album.
We're now in day 73 of the NFL lockout. The longest in the league's history with no end in sight.
On one end you have billionaire owners, who will be paid a guaranteed $4 billion in television revenue whether the season gets played or not. And on the other end you have the players, who a lot of fans view as being greedy and overpaid.
The two sides can't agree on how to split up $9 billion in revenue, which puts the 2011 NFL season in danger of not being played or cut short.
In the end it's the fans who fork over their hard earned money buying tickets and merchandise that will get the short end of the stick. But would they be angry enough to take to the streets and commit crimes out of anger or boredom as Ray Lewis of the Baltimore Ravens suggests?
In an interview with ESPN, the linebacker says the crime rate in America will rise if there is no football.
“Do this research if we don't have a season -- watch how much evil, which we call crime, watch how much crime picks up, if you take away our game," Lewis said in the interview. "There's too many people that live through us, people live through us," he said. "Yeah, walk in the streets, the way I walk the streets, and I'm not talking about the people you see all the time."
Asked why he thought crime would increase during a lockout, Lewis said, “there's nothing else to do."
Sure, football is America's favorite sport by far. Super Bowl XLIV had 106.5 million viewers according to Nielsen Media. Baseball's World Series and the NBA Finals don't come close to those numbers. However the idea fans will take to the streets and commit crimes if there are no games on Sunday seems kind of silly in my opinion.
What do you think of Lewis' comments? Will fans go nuts if the season isn't played?
