Megan Fox's role in Eminem's "Love the Way You Lie" video, featuring Rihanna, seems to have been more than just a cameo for the actress, who has donated her appearance fee to the Sojourn House, a shelter for abused women.

According to Yahoo! Finance, Fox gave her undisclosed fee to Sojourn, which "provides battered women and their children a safe space to regroup, rebuild, and reestablish their self-esteem and lives." The song is centered on the subject of domestic abuse.

The Hollywood star filmed scenes with "Lost" actor Dominic Monaghan for the rapper's "Love the Way You Lie" video premiering Thursday (August 5) on MTV at 9 p.m. ET/PT. While the concept of the video is still unknown, the on-camera couple reportedly got steamy during filming. The duo were snapped locking lips on a rooftop.

"Joseph and I worked pretty closely together to make sure we got this right," Eminem explained in a press release. Trying to make this tough subject work visually is a challenge. It was great to have Rihanna, Megan and Dominic onboard for this. They really brought it and made this video super-powerful."

The weighty subject matter was also a topic Rihanna felt needed to be addressed. "It was believable for us to do a record like that, but it was also something that needed to be done and the way he did it was so clever," the singer said. "He pretty much just broke down the cycle of domestic violence and it's something that a lot people don't have a lot of insight on, so this song is a really, really powerful song and it touches a lot of people."

What do you think of Megan's gesture?

(AllHipHop News) The government continues to pursue rappers for their outstanding tax bill, as the IRS has placed new liens on three well known artists.

First up is Haitian Presidential candidate, Wyclef Jean.

According to a lien recently filed by the IRS, Clef's Yele Haiti non-profit organization allegedly owes $2.1 million dollars in back taxes.

According to the lien, the Haitian-born rapper, who is expected to announce his bid for President of that country today (August 5th), Yele Haiti failed to pay proper taxes on income earned in 2006, 2007 and 2008.

Recently wed producer Swizz Beatz' tax bill also continues to grow.

The chart-topping producer, who married Alicia Keys last weekend off the coast of X, has had 35 tax liens placed against him over the course of the last seven years.

Swizz, born Kasseem Dean, owed more than $4.1 million in three different states between 2003 and 2010 and although he is paying on the bill, the hit making producer still owes over $2.1 million to the IRS.

Finally, Detroit rapper Obie Trice owes almost $300,000 dollars to the government.

The IRS filed a lien against Obie Trice on June 21st, claiming the rapper is behind on taxes to the tune of $298,000.

Earlier this week, federal agents raided the home of Nashville, Tennessee rap star Young Buck and confiscated computers, studio equipment and other assets, to help offset his $300,000 tax burden.

"I have a new team in place, but I am also paying full attention now," Young Buck said after his house was raided. "Nothing like this will ever happen again. This is a huge wake-up call for all entertainers to stay on top of your own trusted employees and team members, and replace anyone that was put in place by your record label if the situation you have goes sour. This IRS situation came about because I trusted accountants, lawyers and managers to handle my business for me while I focused on making music. From now on, I am going to stay on top of my own business."

Texas rapper Bun-B has been keeping it trill for almost two decades. As 1/2 of the legendary rap duo UGK along with the late Pimp C, Bun started dropping gems when a lot of these younger rapper were still in diapers.

On his third solo album, Trill O.G. Bun has received the highest honor The Source magazine can hand out by earning the coveted 5 mics for the perfect album.

The Source writes:

"Trill O.G. scored high enough to receive 5 mics, the holy grail of Hip-Hop ratings, granting it admission into an elite club of timeless musical compositions that span over 20 years. The album rating system has been a staple for the magazine in announcing which artists have put together the best album from start to finish. Bun B is the first artist to receive this honor in over 5 years."

The album has features from Drake, Young Jeezy, Pimp-C, 2Pac, Slim Thug, Gucci Mane and Yo Gotti.

Bun issued a statement regarding the 5 mic rating:

When I started rapping, the highest honor a real MC could aspire to was the coveted 5 mics from Source Magazine. It was only given to the best of the best in hip hop, the cream of the crop so to speak. Those that received the honor were sometimes but not always contested, but what WAS always contested were those that DIDN’t receive the honor. If you’ve ever argued about your favorite MC on a corner, in a barbershop or on the comment section of a blog, then you know what I’m talking about.

For every album labeled a classic, there are dozens of others that people feel deserve the honor. So I realize that people now feel they have to place my album next to others that they feel were more impactful, and argue their case. With social networking being as prevalent as it is in our society, these arguments now take place in a very public arena, which in order to be heard, you often have to be very opinionated and abrasive to stand out. So people, while having no personal hate or malice towards me, will make very loud arguments about The Source’s decision, and the loudest ones will probably get the most attention.

Having been in the music industry almost 20 years, I have learned to receive my accolades with honor and respect, and hold my head high when the hate rains down. I love hip hop just as much or even more than the next person, so I understand the passion behind the argument. At the end of the day, we all want this thing we love to be as real and pure as the day we fell in love with it.

Having said all this, it is with great honor and admiration that I humbly accept this esteemed declaration from the Source Magazine and it’s staff for my album Trill OG, and for those that feel they need to shit on me to argue for another artist or album, don’t worry. The Trill OG can take it! UGK for life!

Bun B


Congrats to Bun on making a classic. 'Trill O.G. is in stores now.

The gangster rapper known to his fans as "Twelve A'Klok" was fatally shot early Monday in eastern New Orleans.

Argell White, 36, died from multiple bullet wounds to the back, coroner's chief investigator John Gagliano said.

His identity was released Wednesday, after authorities managed to get in touch with his relatives.

According to police, a newspaper deliverer found White lying on the ground bleeding in the 6800 block of Parc Brittany Boulevard about 5:15 a.m. The deliverer called 911, but White died before Emergency Medical Services paramedics treated him, Gagliano said.

Investigators have not released details about a motive or suspect in the killing.

White considered himself one of the founding members of the Cut Throat Committy record label. The group's most famous founder was White's cousin, renowned rapper James "Soulja Slim" Tapp, who is believed to have been the victim of a $10,000 hit in 2003 that played out on the lawn of Tapp's mother's home just as he appeared poised for mainstream stardom.

"(White) must have been (talented) if my son" entered business with him, said Linda Tapp, Soulja Slim's mother and the label's owner. "(Slim) liked to bring up a bunch of young, good rappers."

White released a number of albums for Cut Throat with titles such as "Lost 2 the World," "Cold Case," "Over Kill" and the two-volume "Still Standin'." On one of his MySpace profiles, he described his style as "real ... street (music). . . . We don't do love song(s) and we don't dance. Forget about it!"

He never enjoyed the fame his cousin did, Tapp said, but White's work earned him a decent following in the metro New Orleans area. Webpages featuring his music tallied tens of thousands of visits and counted hundreds of users as "friends."

White weathered serious run-ins with the judicial system during his life. He spent several years in prison after pleading guilty to an armed robbery in 1991. Almost a year to the day before his death, White was named a person of interest in the mysterious disappearance and death of an aspiring rapper who he had apparently argued with. Police, however, never booked him with a crime.

According to authorities, White lived in Harvey. He claimed on his MySpace to be married and a "proud parent."

A stash of reggae legend Bob Marley's master recordings and personal belongings has been destroyed by a fire in Aburi, Ghana.

The tapes were being stored at the solar-powered studio established by Marley's wife Rita, who has lived in Africa for the past decade.

The studio complex, Studio One, was set to officially open in June - a month after it was ravaged by a blaze.

Rita Marley insists she will rebuild the complex. She reveals the lost items include footage of her late husband performing in concert.

Work on the studio was completed in early 2009, but the launch was delayed because Rita Marley was out of the country.

Initial reports suggested the fire was caused by an electrical fault.

Rap legend DR. DRE is working on another album in addition to his long-awaited DETOX record - he's preparing a disc full of space-inspired instrumentals.

The superproducer has promised to release the follow-up to his 1999 hit, 2001, by the end of the year (10) after numerous delays.

But he reveals there's another project in the works too - and it's truly out of this world.

He tells Vibe magazine, "An instrumental album is something I've been wanting to do for a long time. I have the ideas for it.

"I want to call it The Planets... It's just my interpretation of what each planet sounds like. I'm gonna go off on that. Just all instrumental. I've been studying the planets and learning the personalities of each planet.

"I've been doing this for about two years now, just in my spare time, so to speak. I wanna do it in surround sound. It'll have to be in surround sound for Saturn to work."


A release date for the tentatively-titled The Planets has yet to be announced.

On October 3, 2009, 17 year old Victor Steen was murdered by a police officer and it was all caught on dash cam.

Officer Jerald Ard was chasing Steen, who was riding a bike. After Steen refused to stop, Officer Ard fired his taser from his moving car which hit Steen and knocked him from the bike.

Officer Ard then ran over Steen, killing him.

As the cameras rolled from another squad car that pulled up as backup, Ard is seen getting something light colored fram the back seat of his squad car.

He then leans under his care where Steen is pinned and stays for 40 seconds.

When paramedics arrive five minutes later, they find a 9mm silver and black semi-automatic is Steen's pocket.

Even though witnesses came forward to say that Ard had abused his power and ran over Steen intentionally, he has been allowed to go back to work for the Pensacola Police Department.

Montana Fishburne and Alleged Boyfriend/Pimp. Jeremy Greene aka J-Pipes

Video and Pics After The Jump

So the plot thickens......

There's a new story emerging about Laurence Fishburne's 19 year old daughter, Montana, who is now using the name "Chippy D" for her porn career.

Website CarltonJordon.com is alleging that Montana is being pimped out by her boyfriend, Jeremy Greene aka "J-Pipes".

Green is seen in the initial introduction video for Montana, along with porn star Brian Pumper. In that video, Jeremy is introduced as a new porn actor coming onto the scene along with Montana. The two confirm they are a "porn couple".

CarltonJordon also confirms that it is Jeremy Greene that will star alongside Montana in her much talked porn debut with Vivid Entertainment, not Brian Pumper as previously suggested.

However, Brian is beating Vivid to the punch by putting Montana in his own porn flick titled, “Phattys Rhymes and Dimes 14″ that Brian is shipping out two weeks ahead of the Vivid release! Vivid has responded by moving up their release date from August 18 to August 10 in an effort to beat Brian's release.

Back to Jeremy Greene though, as the story goes, he has been Montana's boyfriend since she was 16 and has had her working as a prostitute for a while now. Reportedly he is manipulating the young starlet wanna be into this porn career and it may not have been her idea after all.

Hmm, this is getting interesting indeed.

President Obama turns 49 years old today, and while it's not quite the milestone of the big 5-0, clearly he is ringing in another year only grudgingly.

Obama has made references in the past week to the outward signs of his aging.

"I will be 49 this week," Obama said in Atlanta on Monday. "I have a lot more gray hair than I did last year."

He followed that comment this week with two more references lamenting his dark hair going grayer with each month in office.

White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said the job as commander-in-chief is one the president no doubt enjoys, but it will just require him to get more frequent haircuts to cover up those pesky gray hairs.
