Tyga Interview With VIBE Magazine

Posted by TheNewEntry on May 19, 2010 at 9:11pm

Young Mula’s Tygaman speaks to VIBE Magazine about working with Chris Brown, their “Fan Of A Fan” mixtape, his upcoming album, and more. You can read the full interview below:

Tyga and his friend Chris Brown are following the paths of Jay-Z and R Kelly and Bow Wow and Omarion with an R&B meets hip-hop project. But the duo is doing things differently by releasing a mixtape instead of an LP. According to Tyga, Fan of a Fan is more the product of their friendship and creative chemistry than it is a marketing ploy.

“I’ve been knowing him for two years and I’m not that type of person to as soon as I meet somebody be like, ‘Yo I need this.’ I let them get to know me first,” Tyga tells VIBE. “One day we was in the studio and he was like, ‘Let’s do a mixtape.’ With the situation that he’s been in and the fact that I haven’t come out with a lot of stuff on my own, it just made sense. There’s not a lot of unity anymore. A lot of people don’t work with other people or they’re afraid of what these blogs got to say and that’s part of the problem, people are too afraid to do what they want to do.”

Fan of a Fan, which dropped online yesterday (May 17), includes “G-Shit” and “Holla At Me,” singles also accompanied by videos that went viral but Tyga says those were the weakest of the bunch.

“You’re your own critic so I feel like those are the weaker songs we did,” Tyga says. “I feel like everything else we did was better than that because the vibe and the chemistry started to get going when we started recording more.”

There aren’t many features on Fan of a Fan, with the exception of Bow Wow and Kevin McCall, but one the duo says they’re critically missing is Nicki Minaj. “We wanted Nicki Minaj on Fan of a Fan but you have to track her down. We’ll get her though, because anything with her on it is gonna be fire,” says the LA rapper who signed to Young Money last year.

Although nothing is official yet, Tyga hinted that out of several songs recorded there are enough left over tracks to make more albums. “If it makes sense then I eventually see us doing a full album or an EP, but only if everything is right,” he says.

Tyga is also working on his own album, which is currently untitled but scheduled for a September release. He was mum on the collabs but confirmed guest spots from Drake, Chris Brown and J Cole, and added that it’s a big difference from his “Coconut Juice” days with Pete Wentz.

“I feel like this album is really gonna introduce me and display me as the artist that I am now and that I’m gonna continue to be. When I got over to Decaydance it was a lot of rock influence and that was what I thought I had to do because I was young but I realized that it’s not about what the managers and A&R’s want it’s about what you want and what these fans want to hear from you,” Tyga says adding that he and Wentz are still cool. “Pete Wentz respects it though because everything made sense when they saw the ‘Bedrock’ video and my affiliation—because they didn’t know how to market me. And that’s why it makes sense for me to be on Young Money because Wayne and Birdman let you do what you want to do. That’s why my music is getting better every day.”

Megan Fox Axed From 'Transformers 3' Movie. Actress Claims It Was Her Decision To Leave

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 19, 2010 at 7:00pm

Looks like Megan Fox has learned the hard way that you don't take shots at the director of the film franchise that made you a household name.

Last year Megan ranted about 'Transformers' director Michael Bay.

“[Michael] wants to create this insane, infamous mad-man reputation. He wants to be like Hitler on his sets, and he is," she said. “He has no social skills at all. It’s endearing to watch him. He’s so vulnerable and fragile in real life and then on set, he’s a tyrant, he has some kind of mental problem."

Well it's just been announced that the beautiful brunette has been axed from 'Transformers 3'.

Variety is reporting that Paramount has decided to move in a different direction and will cast a different actress as Shia LaBeouf's love interest in the film.

Megan has told People that it was her decision to leave.

“Megan Fox will not be starring in Transformers 3," reps for the actress said. "It was her decision not to return. She wishes the franchise the best.”

The previous two 'Transformer' movies have been blockbusters at the box office.

The first 'Transformers' grossed $709.7 million worldwide, followed by $836.4 million for last year's 'Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.'

Paramount is banking that the next film in the series will be box office gold without Megan.

Shooting is expected to begin this summer on the film which is set to open July 1,2011.

Right Or Wrong? Mom Has 5 Year Old Son Handcuffed & Put In Back Of Patrol Car For Playing With Matches [Video]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 19, 2010 at 6:01pm

Video After The Jump

Just how far is too far when it comes to teaching your kids a lesson?

A mom in Lehigh Acres, Florida fed up with her son playing with matches had a sheriff's deputy handcuff him and put him in the back of a patrol car to teach him a lesson.

The mom stands by her decision saying "If more parents did what I did we wouldn't have the crime we have now."

But a witness to the event thought it was too much. She watched as the sheriff handcuffed the little boy and took a picture as she pumped gas at a 7-Eleven.

"That's not a way to treat a child, that's not a way to teach a lesson to a little boy,” said the witness. "The only thing why I didn't go up to a cop and say what the heck are you doing is because I would have gone to jail."

The Lee County Sheriff's Office said the deputy did not follow protocol and said it wouldn't happen again.

So what do you guys think, was the mom out of line or was this good parenting?

Hugh Hefner's Pimp Hand Grows Weak. Playmate Twins Asked To Leave Mansion Because They Won't Stop Dating Other Guys

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 19, 2010 at 4:58pm

There used to be a time when Hugh Hefner would snap his fingers and the women in his mansion would do anything he said.

Those times appear to be long gone as he's had to kick 'Girls Next Door' twins Karissa and Kristina Shannon out of the Playboy mansion because he can't controil their freakish behavior..

"After a couple of weeks, Hef was getting a little bit upset about the boyfriends, so he wanted us to move out," Karissa tells PopEater.com.

Let's be real, Hef is 84 years old, the chances he could keep these two beautiful young ladies satisfied is slim to none no matter how much Viagra is pumped into his body. But you're still supposed to respect him.

"We were not allowed to have boys in the house. That was the absolute number one rule -- no boys allowed," says Karissa. "That was one of the main reasons we moved out."

"But living there and being seen out with other guys, (Hugh) was tripping."

Damn Hef, guess it's hard out here for a pimp these days.

WTF? Lil Cease Compares Rick Ross & Nicki Minaj To Notorious B.I.G. & Lil Kim [Video]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 19, 2010 at 3:30pm

Video After The Jump

You have to respect Lil Cease, yes he came in the game riding Notorious B.I.G's coattails, but the Brooklyn rapper has been able to hang in a tough industry since B.I.G's passing.

With that being said I have to take exception with a few of the things Cease said in an interview with MTV.

There will never be another B.I.G or Lil Kim and you would think Cease of all people would know that. But apparently he doesn't as he compares Rick Ross and Nicki Minaj to the late great mc and his female sidekick.

"It's a good thing to me," Cease said of the comparisons to Biggie. "If people are taking steps into people's styles like that, that's paying homage. I definitely looked at Nicki and was like, 'That's that Kim remedy.' I think Ross is nice. To see him be co-signed by Diddy, it gives you that feel. I like it. It's just showing the influence we had on people. It shows the influence Kim had on females. It shows the influence Big had. I don't look at it like they're trying to take [Big and Kim's] spot or trying to be them. Big paved the way for Ross, and Kim paved the way for females that's hot now."

I expect wild exaggerations and bragging from Puffy, especially when it comes to artists he's promoting. However hearing Lil Cease mention B.I.G. and Ross in the same breath really surprised me and he wasn't done.

"As far as with Ross, it's the delivery," Cease said. "He's lyrically hands-on. Just his whole swag, to me, he's just the dude. That big black dude. Every time I see him, he gives the feel of just B.I. Just his whole swag too. He's got that confidence that B.I. had. B.I. was real confident. No matter how he looked, he would say it in rhymes: 'Fat, black and ugly as ever.' That's one of the most quoted lines. It didn't do nothing for him but make him a better person. Ross got that same swag. He knows he's dope. Then when you getting the best of the best co-signing you, it makes you go harder. I feel he made three dope albums. He can get that Big effect where he's consistent with it. A lot of his material is just dope music. You can't knock him at the end of the day. Whether you want to compare him to Big or not, he's a dope artist."

All I have left to say is kids just say no to drugs.

MMA: Alistair Overeem Says Fedor Emelianenko Is Ducking Him

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 19, 2010 at 10:55am

Strikeforce: Heavy Artillery took place this past Saturday and the only significant storyline coming out of it: Alistair Overeem. Sure we saw Jacare Souza win another fight and the first "young" Gracie win a big fight, but Overeem had everyone talking about the Dutchman. It was Overeem's first exposure to American audiences on an American fight card since 2007. Whatever your thoughts are about Overeem over that span, the one thing that is for certain, he is a much improved fighter.

One thing that has not changed is the fact Fedor Emelianenko remains the best fighter in the world. Alistair Overeem claims Fedor has ducked him, and while the validity of that statement may be up for debate, the fight has been talked about for years.

Back to Saturday night, Overeem dismantled Brett Rogers in quick fashion. It appeared Rogers was hesitant to let his hands go and perhaps rightfully so. The two came near each other and Overeem literally flung Rogers to the mat. The end was about a minute or so afterwards thanks to Overeem's ground and pound.

Granted, Fedor has beaten every man he has ever stepped inside a ring/cage with. What makes us think a proposed fight with Overeem would go any different? For one thing, Overeem has heavy hands and is a muscular fighter who can move around well on the mat. At the end of the day, Fedor is no pushover for obvious reasons. Fedor does not get nervous in a fight and has his own heavy hands and superb grappling background to rely upon. I would give Overeem as good a chance to defeat the mammoth legend as anyone else, but how can you pick against The Last Emperor?

As for Brett Rogers, give the man credit. While he may not have had a laundry list of quality opponents starting out, he took a HUGE step up in his past two fights. Obviously, he lost both fights, but he is still a newbie in the sport as far as some are concerned. His camp has talked about wanting to get a lot of experience under his belt around the world so I hope he does just that. With more training/experience, Rogers could become a top heavyweight in the future.

Crips Confront Gucci Mane & Wacka Flocka At Video Shoot, Threatens Wacka [Video]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 19, 2010 at 9:00am

Video After The Jump

Gucci Mane and Wacka Flocka Flame were shooting a video when a crip approached them talking reckless.

The crip repeatedly shouted at Wacka "I'm the one that beat you". Possibly referring to the fight that happened inside a store recently or the incident when Wacka was shot.

The crip tells Gucci "Gucci you're cool, we're talking about dude (Wacka Flocka) he came at us on some f*** sh*t".

Wacka had to be restrained from going at it.

Gucci Mane just got out of prison last week and I know he's not looking to go back. If not for that reason this situation could have escalated quickly.

Lady Gaga, Black Eyed Peas And J.Lo Rule The World Music Awards [Pics Inside]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 19, 2010 at 7:00am

It's been three years since she last won a major music award after taking a step back from the industry to become a mother.

But last night at the World Music Awards in Monaco, the Latina singer showed she was back for good as she dazzled in three different outfits.

It appeared the animal world was the inspiration for the night with the 40-year-old star wearing both leopard and tiger-print Roberto Cavalli dresses at the glitzy bash at the Sporting Club in Monte Carlo

Her love for animal print didn't stop there - she managed to squeeze in a snake-skin clutch bag, which clashed with her leopard-print red carpet dress.

Lopez also slipped into a third ensemble, a sparkly silver and black mini-dress with fringed hemline and plunging neckline as she opened the show with a medley of her biggest hits on stage.

The singer, who launched her music career nearly 11 years ago, was honoured with the Legend for Outstanding Contribution to the Arts

Previous winners of the Legend award include Sir Elton John, Madonna, Tina Turner, Diana Ross, Michael Jackson, Prince, Mariah Carey and Cher.

Accepting the award, Lopez said it meant a lot to her but it was 'only the beginning' of what she hoped would be a long musical career.

The decision to honour Lopez with the Legend Award is sure to surprise many after her music career has been significantly less successful in recent years.

Her last big musical success was her 2002 album This Is Me... Then, which hit number six in the US charts and sold over 6million copies worldwide.

However, her 2005 album Rebirth received mixed reviews from critics and sold 731,000 copies in the U.S.

Her last album Brave, which was released three years ago, was her least successful album to date and only reached 24 on the British album charts.

Lopez announced she had parted ways with her record label Sony in February after 10 years, amid reports executives were unhappy with the commercial response to her latest singles Louboutins and Fresh Out Of The Oven.

She has now signed with Def Jam Recordings and is hoping to release her seventh studio album later this year.

Lopez arrived at the ceremony on the arm of her singer husband Marc Anthony and also posed alongside Italian designer Cavalli, who is currently renting the couple his £20,000 eponymous-titled yacht.

The New Yorker and Anthony have been cruising around the French Riviera since arriving with their two-year-old twins Max and Emme last week.

Ahead of Lopez's World Music Awards performance, she spent the day visiting billionaires Lakhsmi Mittal and Sir Philip Green on their respective multi-million pound yachts.

Aside from Lopez's honour, the big winners of the night were The Black Eyed Peas and Lady GaGa.
The flamboyant GaGa was a notable absence at the bash, despite being named World's Best Pop/Rock Artist, World's Best New Artist, Best-Selling US Artist, World's Best Single for Poker Face and World's Best Album for The Fame.

Hip-hop group The Black Eyed Peas picked up three accolades, with only bandmember Will.i.am in attendance.

The rapper, who later joined Cheryl Cole at the de Grisogon party at Antibes, accepted the group's World's Best R&B Artist trophy from socialites Paris and Nicky Hilton

It was a real family affair for the Hilton sisters, who arrived on the red carpet with parents Rick and Kathy and younger brother Barron.

Writing on her Twitter page, Paris said: 'Jennifer Lopez looks beautiful, just did an amazing performance. Stunning.

'David Guetta is Amazing! He won a lot of awards tonight and did an amazing set with Kelly Rowland, Akon and Wil.i.am. What great songs.'

French DJ David Guetta, who won two gongs last night, including Producer and World's Best DJ, performed with Will.i.am and Kelly Rowland.

Former Destiny's Child singer Rowland performed their dance anthem When Love Takes Over in an unusual black dress which exposed one of her long legs.

Other winners included U2 with World's Best Rock Artist, Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli with World's Best Classical Artist and Susan Boyle with Best-Selling Artist in the UK.

Last night's ceremony was co-hosted by Heroes actress Hayden Panettiere, who attended with her Ukrainian boxer boyfriend Wladimir Klitschko

The 20-year-old actress, who wore a cream and pink Emilio Pucci mini-dress and nude Christian Louboutin peep-toe heels, arrived separately from 35-year-old Klitschko, who she has been dating since Christmas.

Also providing some glamour last night was Czech supermodel Karolina Kurkova, Swedish model Victoria Silvstedt, New Zealand model Rachel Hunter and American actress Michelle Rodriguez.

Other performers included Senegalese singer Akon - who won Best-selling Artist in Africa, American singer Deborah Cox, Bocelli, The Scorpions, Italian crooner Tiziano Ferro and Japanese singer Namie Amuro.

The winners are...

World's Best Single: Lady GaGa - Poker Face
World's Best Album: Lady GaGa - The Fame
World's Best Pop Artist: The Black Eyed Peas
World's Best Pop/Rock Artist: Lady GaGa
World's Best Rock Artist: U2
World's Best R&B Artist: The Black Eyed Peas
World's Best Hip-Hop Artist: The Black Eyed Peas
World's Best New Artist: Lady GaGa
World's Best Classical Artist: Andrea Bocelli
World's Best DJ: David Guetta
Legend for Outstanding Contribution to the Arts: Jennifer Lopez
Rock Legends: Scorpions
World's Best Producer: David Guetta
Best-selling UK Artist: Susan Boyle
Best-selling US Artist: Lady GaGa

Diddy Speaks On Visiting Lil Wayne In Jail " It Wouldn't Have Been Right If I Didn't Go See Him" [Video]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 19, 2010 at 6:30am

Video After The Jump

There was no big spectacle when Diddy visited his friend Lil Wayne earlier this month at New York's Rikers Island. There are no pictures or video footage. Diddy told MTV News he just wanted to check in on a friend who always came through in the clutch for him.

"Wayne is a trooper," Diddy said Tuesday (May 18) while promoting his June 4 film, "Get Him to the Greek." "Wayne is doing great. It was a personal visit, so I don't want to get into the details of that. We're just counting down the days of him getting out. He's somebody that has been there for me over the years numerous times. I live in New York. It wouldn't have been right if I didn't go see him and check on his health and well-being. But the status of where that's at, that's his personal business."

One of the ways Wayne came through for Puffy was shooting a video for Diddy-Dirty Money's Last Train to Paris album, due June 28.

"On Last Train to Paris, Wayne is on the album, Drake is on the album, we're trying to get Hov on the album, trying to get Janelle Monáe on the album," Diddy told MTV News in March. "Everybody that's on the album, it's not done in a regular appearance way. It's done in a unique way that's authentic. It's not about a single or [album sales]. It doesn't have that behind it. Wayne is on a record that's called 'Strobe Lights.' It's one of the first records where I hear him talking about love and how love has affected him. That's the type of things I wanted to get out of people if they were on the album. I wanted people to get out of their comfort zone and do something that was special. He did the video for me over the weekend. 'Strobe Lights,' it's gonna be tough."

Diddy also said Wayne's absence from the scene is a big loss. "I think we gonna miss a certain energy that Wayne has," Diddy said. "The beauty about it is, he'll be back, and hopefully he'll come back a better person. Whenever we get in trouble, we're in the public spotlight. So hopefully there's a lot of kids out there who could learn from any mistakes that we may have put ourselves in, even if we're not guilty of the crime sometimes. We are human. People have to learn: 'Make sure you know where you're going, who you riding with, what the situation is.' We're targets. I'm just happy he doesn't have to do a lot of time and that he'll be out, and hopefully he'll use the time wisely and use it in a positive way."

Megan Fox Reveals She Has Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Would Like To Do Bodily Harm To Paparazzi Over Leaked Nude Photos

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 19, 2010 at 5:07am

Megan Fox may be pretty but things get ugly when she is photographed in the nude - or has to use a public bathroom.

In the June issue of Allure, the 24-year-old star of "Transformers" reveals she has Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and that she has no qualms about hurting the paparazzi photographer who snapped a topless photo of her on the set of her new film.

"If I knew who took this picture, I would personally cause them harm - physical harm," she said in the magazine’s upcoming issue.

At the time the unauthorized photo was taken, Fox was shooting an independent feature called "Passion Play,” in which she stars alongside Mickey Rourke as a circus sideshow performer.

"I'm at my job and I’m trying to play a character and I'm trying to be serious, and this is the s--- that's happening to me," Fox told the magazine. "It makes me furious."

The raven-haired bombshell is often photographed off set around Los Angeles with her on-again, off-again beau of five years, Brian Austin Green. But she does not appreciate being tabloid fodder - even with her top on.

"I’m not a f---ing reality-TV star that’s courting the paparazzi and wants my f---ing picture taken all the time," she told Allure.

Fox, who is known for speaking her mind, dropped multiple f-bombs during her chat with the fashion magazine, but only six made it to print.

"I'm going to spend 20 years never saying anything interesting? Never telling a joke? Never pushing anyone's buttons?" she asked Allure. "I'm a person, I'm not a robot."

Though she may have a dirty mouth, Fox can't stand dirt as a rule. The actress told the magazine that she suffers from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, which means she can't use public cutlery or enter a restroom without feeling uncomfortable.

"This is a sickness, I have an illness," she told the magazine.
