Not many know that the great city of Memphis was named after an ancient city in Egypt and was also known across the land for its craftsmanship and its trade and commerce. In other words, Memphis has always represented a city for the hustle. Memphis, Tennessee is no different than its namesake. A city of hustlers and players. A city of tradition and history, especially when it comes to black music. From the legendary sounds of Stax music to the hard gritty music of hiphop legends EightBallMJG and 3-6 Mafia, this city have gave birth to a new breed of artists. Artist who learn from the cradle how to hustle and flow.
Lil Cam is definitely that kind of artist with a special knack for making money. Since grade school, Cam has sold candy, bikes and whatever he could do to get "his hustle on". Hustling was his first nature and then the music and like many entrepreneur artists who started a label first, supporting other artists, he went the same route. But after noticing his efforts and the artists he supported, work ethic didn't match, it was time to invest in himself. If he was going to play with his money, he wanted to be the one to take the winning shot.
A true businessman with an array of businesses, Lil Cam plans on adding a hit record to his list of accomplishments and with his new single, "Anonymous " He plans to take "Level 4 Entertainment" brand to the top of the pyramid that he's building for an everlasting legacy. In his own words he said " A tru OG once told me stay down your time comin soon , This your season now lets eat !!!
As a young entrepreneur, Lil Cam owns a studio, a digital graphics business and a nail salon in Memphis, so being a boss is already something he knows how to do. But the message he wants to send to the world as the next Memphian to blow up, is that he's "special". He's always felt special growing up in the city known as the "mid-south" and now he's putting all the money and wisdom on himself, to win.
There are people who things happen to and there's people who watch things happen but there's a special breed of people that make things happen and Lil Cam is definitely one of them. In the movie, "Hustle & Flow", the last thing the character DJay said, before the movie based in Memphis went on to make history in Hip Hop, "everybody gotta have a dream. If you ask Lil Cam, he'll say, "that's special"…… already !!! We gone take em to the next level . #LEVEL 4
It looks like the contentious and protracted contract negotiations withBirdman and Cash Money Recordshave taken a heavy toll onLil Wayne.
The 33-year old rap superstar announced that he was walking away from the game via his Twitter account on Saturday morning, September 3.
"I AM NOW DEFENSELESS AND mentally DEFEATED & I leave gracefully and thankful I luh my fanz but I'm dun," he wrote. "Ain't lookin for sympathy, just serenity."
Aswe previously reported, Wayne filed a$51 million breach of contract lawsuitagainst Cash Money in January 2015.
The reasons cited included:
1. Not paying Wayne an $8 million advance when he began recording Tha Carter V in December 2013.
2. Failing to pay Wayne an additional $2 million upon completion of the album a year later.
3. Refusing to release the album.
Since that time the "A Milli"hit maker has publicly dissed both Birdman and Cash Money several times.
On December 31, 2015, the stalemate appeared to be coming to an end when Birdman, Wayne,DrakeandMack Mainewere photographed ringing in 2016 togetherin Miami at E11even nightclub.
Mack captioned the photo on his Instagram page: "United we stand divided we fall."
However, that moment of solidarity was short lived. Since then, Weezy has dissed Cash Money during his concerts, took a photo in May with Birdman foes Rick Ross and Trick Daddy and was spotted wearing a cap with "Fuck Cash Money" written on it in July.
If Wayne has really hung up the mic where would you rank him all time?
Famed activist, author, and television personality Marc Lamont Hill sat down with an exclusive interview with VladTV where he spoke about his new book, "Nobody: Casualties of America's War on the Vulnerable, from Ferguson to Flint and Beyond." He revealed that he got the idea for the book after visiting Ferguson following Mike Brown's death, which he compared to a modern day lynching. Hill added that while waiting on a proposal for the book, similar police brutality deaths took place, prompting him to take a closer look at the situation as a whole.
During the conversation, Hill shared his thoughts on the police and how he has a heightened expectation of them to protect us, but he added that he thinks the world would be a better place if we watched our communities and didn't have police. He also clarified that there's a difference in people snitching and witnessing a crime unfold in front of them. He adds that if there is a rapist running around the neighborhood, it isn't snitching if you alert the authorities to the situation.
Check out more of what Marc Lamont Hill had to say during the interview below, including why he thinks privately owned jails are continuing the convict lease system from the days of slavery.

Video After The Jump
When Eddie Murphy and Nicole Murphy were divorced in 2006, she was awarded a $15 million settlement.
Nicole and Eddie Murphy were married for 12 years. They have 5 children
$10 million of it is now gone after Nicole was conned by a former friend she had known for 34 years.
According to theNew York Post,Troy Stratostold Nicole that he would invest the money overseas where it would earn a high rate of return.
A federal lawsuit filed in Sacramento alleged that Stratos kept all of the funds and covered Nicole's expenses with her own money.
A majority of the funds were used to finance Stratos' lavish lifestyle.
A trial was set to begin on September 12, but Stratos suddenly decided to plead guilty this week.
It was initially thought that Stratos had stolen $7-8 million from Nicole. Unfortunately for her, it turned out to be much more.
on Wednesday, August 31, he pleaded guilty to 11 counts of wire and mail fraud, two counts of money laundering and one count of obstruction of justice.
The 50-year old is already serving prison time for wire fraud and money laundering after being found guilty in May 2015, of defrauding a Philadelphia investment group out of $11.25 million.
Nicole, 48, told TMZ that she hoped to get all of the money back, if not more. She added that if that wasn't possible she would still be OK financially.
Stratos could end up spending the rest of his life in prison. If convicted of wire and mail fraud he could be sentenced up to 20 years in prison for each crime.
Money laundering and obstruction of justice carry a maximum penalty of 10 years each.

The bangers from ‘Skoobzilla’just keep coming. This week Trouble drops off the visual for ‘AhhMan’ from the mixtape that many believe is among the top projects dropped this year.
Keemotion & MI Visions are back behind the cameras on this Spiffy produced track, as Trouble speaks on the ups & downs of his everyday life.
Never afraid to share his own struggles, Trouble raps about the love & support of relatives, along with the stress of providing for family, snitches taking friends down, malicious rumors that he has to ignore and more.
Troubleis one of those rare artists that can truly channel his pain & emotions through his music. It’s not just one big party, there are responsibilities that come with being a breadwinner and provider. I’m sure many of us can relate
