Audio After The Jump

 

50 Cent called into Monterey, California radio station 102.5 KDON recently to talk to Eric The Funky 1. He opened up about the features on his upcoming album Street King Immortal.

 

"[People] can expect me, Eminem... I did a song with Chris Brown on the record, Trey Songz," 50 said. "I did a song with Ne-Yo. In the process I recorded with half of [the] music culture. I worked with everybody. In the past I hadn't reached out to artists and worked with them as much because 'Get Rich or Die Tryin' didn't have anyone that wasn't in house."

 

Erik congratulated 50 on the enormous success of Get Rich or Die Tryin, and said that when he throws on "In Da Club" it still gets the crowds pumping in the nightclubs almost 10 years later.

The conversation then shifted to 50's new movie Freelancers. The G-Unit boss talked about how great it was to get the chance to work with Forest Whitaker and Robert De Niro.

 

"I always wanted to keep myself associated with projects that have artistic integrity that I can be proud of, " 50 explained. "And having two Academy Award winning actors around me in the actual picture, you can't have more support than that."

 

Other topics covered included Street King energy drink, SMS Audio headphones, his workout routine and his upcoming fitness book Formula 50, which will be released on December 27 via iTunes and Hardcover.

Check out a description of Formula 50 below

 

Get fit like 50 Cent: The phenomenally fit superstar rapper reveals his strategic six-week workout plan for achieving a ripped body—and developing the mental toughness to stay in shape for a lifetime.

Survival is a recurring theme of 50 Cent’s lyrics, and his life. That’s why, with obesity rates soaring and fitness levels declining, he wants to give everyone an all-access pass to his premium plan for lifelong fitness. In Formula 50, the mega-successful entertainer and entrepreneur unleashes the power of metabolic resistance training (MRT), the key ingredient that has helped him achieve the famously buff physique that makes his music videos sizzle.

Through MRT, 50 Cent’s fitness plan breaks down the barriers between traditional weight training and cardio workouts, accelerating fat loss while building muscle and improving overall fitness. Designed for a six-week rollout for total mind-body transformation, the Formula 50 regimen builds willpower while it builds physical power. In addition to motivation, nutrition is another key element; readers will discover the unique dietary combinations that fuel 50 Cent’s workouts. Coauthored with Jeff O’Connell, health journalist and editor-in-chief at Bodybuilding.com (the world’s largest fitness website), the book delivers a payoff that goes beyond six-pack abs and flab-free pecs: This is a fitness plan that boosts energy, endurance, flexibility, and mobility. The result is a body you’ve always dreamed of—and the mindset to attain the rest of your dreams.

Audio After The Jump

 

As the sports world tries to figure out how Vince Young blew $26 million in six years some troubling details are emerging about his spending habits that provide a clue.

 

As we previously reported, the former NFL player is broke and out of the NFL after failing to latch on to any of the three teams he played for. He was drafted third overall in 2006 by the Tennessee Titans. They gave the former University of Texas player a $26 million guaranteed contract. After a promising rookie year where he was named the Associated Press NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, things seemed to fall apart for Young on the field.

 

He never regained the magic he displayed at UT, or in his rookie year in the NFL. He was released by the Titans on July 28, 2011. 

 

He signed a one-year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles one day later on July 29, 2011. His primary on the Eagles was to serve as a backup for Michael Vick.

 

After one year with the Eagles he was cut and signed a free agent contract with the Buffalo Bills on May 11, 2012. His stay with the Bills didn't last long. They released him on August 27, 2012.

 

12349518099?profile=original

 

Vince is now out of the NFL and broke.

 

Tennessee sports radio station 104.5 The Zone fielded calls during the 3HL show from restaurant workers who watched the former player blow thousands of dollars on food and liquor for himself and teammates. He also bought out a Southwest Airline flight in 2007 for no apparent reason other than simply flying home to Houston.

 

12349518487?profile=original

 

Take a look at some of Vince's spending habits when he played for the Titans.

 

1. Vince Young's favorite restaurant to hang out in? T.G.I. Friday's on Nashville's West End Avenue.

It was here he once dropped $6k on a meal for he and other players.

Yes, $6k.

At a T.G.I.Friday's.

Players would congregate at the bar

 

2. The bartenders, who got to know Vince thanks to his frequent visits at T.G.I. Friday's, told Vince they'd make him a "special" drink.

It was a melon drop.

Which VY had everytime he came to the restaurant.

 

3. During his rookie season VY spent $5k a week at the Cheesecake Factory.

He always picked up the tab for multiple teammates.

 

4. On a 2007 Southwest flight from Nashville to Houston, VY bought all of the seats except for about ten passengers who'd bought tickets before he could buy the entire plane.

The plane seated 130 passengers, meaning VY purchased 120 of the seats.

 

5. After each home football game, VY headed for the Morton's downtown where he would sit at the bar and order $600 shots of Louis XIII.

That can add up in a hurry.

 

Yesterday Vince took to Twitter to defend himself, claiming things were not as bad as the media was making them out to be.

Hopefully Vince can catch on with a new team

Video After The Jump

 

To coincide with the release of G.O.O.D. Music's highly anticipated Cruel Summer album, Kanye West put together a video speaking about the making of the project.

 

"I like when I get mad at music because it's so good that I'm like, 'oh sh*t why didn't we think of that?'" he says at the beginning of the clip.

 

It's that kind of perfectionist attitude that has propelled West into his present spot as one of the most creative minds in the business.

 

12349516698?profile=original

 

West says he wanted this project to be different and without any label politics, which is why he reached out to so many different camps outside of his own.

 

"One track might have 30 people's opinion on it," he explains. "It's not just about a tracklist and a name. It's about the communal style of work. We spend just as much time on the actual album packaging, as the the video concepts, as the song [itself]. Everything is equally as important."

 

Peep the rest of the clip below.

Video After The Jump

 

On August 30, Chris Lighty passed away. Many who knew him are still struggling with the idea that he is gone. On Wednesday's MTV RapFix Live, former Violator Management President and Co-founder Mona Scott-Young and Missy Elliot talked with Sway about the impact Chris had on the business and their lives.

 

"I think sometimes it's good to do history," Missy said.  "He's somebody that if anybody is trying to do management, A&R or whatever, I think you should know who Chris Lighty is. He built so many careers. He had that cockiness, but it worked for him because he made sure that all of his artists was good. He worked hard for all of us. He was just a go-getter."

 

12349514495?profile=original

 

Sway remembered a funny story about Chris and 50 Cent.

 

"I remember when [Chris] first started working with 50," Sway recalled. "And he brought 50 in here to do his first MTV interview before people even knew who he was. And I was talking to 50 and 50 was just saying the most wild things. This was early 50. And Chris and I got into it because he thought I was egging it on. And I almost smiled at him like, 'man I appreciate your passion for your artists."

 

12349515274?profile=original

 

Mona also spoke fondly of Chris as she reminded viewers of just how far back Chris's contributions to the industry go.

 

"I don't think people understand the magnitude of who he was and what he contributed," she said. "From the forefront it seems like it started with a 50, Busta or Missy, but this is a guy who goes back to Afrika Bambaataa, A Tribe Called Quest, the Rush days, the early Def Jam days. His contributions are innumerable, and I'm still reeling from it. It just still seems surreal to me."

Audio After The Jump

 

Nearly 12 years after a club shooting that left several people injured, Diddy has paid $850,000 to settle his share of a lawsuit brought by the victims according to the New York Post.

 

On December 27, 1999, Diddy was at a Manhattan nightclub with then-girlfriend Jennifer Lopez and protege Shyne. During a dispute, Shyne pulled out a gun and began shooting inside the club.

 

12349512067?profile=original

 

Shyne was subsequently arrested and charged with and convicted of attempted murder, assault, and reckless endangerment. He was sentenced to ten years in prison.

 

12349511698?profile=original

 

Diddy, who was represented by Johnnie Cochran Jr., was acquitted of weapons possession and bribery charges. The jury also acquitted his bodyguard Anthony Jones of all charges.

 

12349512471?profile=original

 

 

Although cleared in the criminal case, Diddy and the nightclub still faced several civil suits from the three injured victims.

 

The most seriously injured victim, 40-year old Natania Reubenwas shot in the nose and suffered seizures because of seven bullet fragments still lodged in her face.

12349513255?profile=original

Natania Reuben

 

In June 2011, a settlement was reached. Reuben was paid $1.8 million. The two other victims were paid $500,000 and $50,000.


In October 2009, Shyne, who legally changed his name to Moses Michael Levi to reflect his conversion to being an Orthodox Jew, was released from prison after serving nine years. He was then deported back to his home country of Belize. The rapper had beefed with Diddy while he was incarcerated until they buried the hatchet earlier this year during Paris Fashion week.

 

12349513273?profile=original

 

Now the beef is back on. Upset that Diddy won't help him obtain a U.S. Visa, Shyne releases a diss track in August titled "You're Welcome" aimed at the Bad Boyboss.

 

In a new interview with WGIV Charlotte, Shyne claims he saved Jennifer Lopez and Diddy's lives on the night of the shooting in 1999.

 

"I wasn't thugging and bugging that night," Shyne says. "I was actually the best behaved because I don't drink and I don't smoke. But I'm from the streets so when it's time for my hammer to go off it goes off, and somebody was getting ready to pop [Diddy] head off. It might not had been no Jennifer Lopez movies if I didn't pull my ratchet and squeeze off."
