Birdman is looking to add another expensive car to his collection and more money to his bank account. He just revealed via twitter that he has put down a $2 million dollar wager on the Miami Heat to win the NBA Championship.
The Heat, led by superstars Dwayne Wade, Lebron James and Chris Bosh are already up 1-0 in the best of seven series against the Dallas Mavericks.
Birdman is quite comfortable placing big bets on sports events and seems to be on a nice winning streak.
In May of last year he put $4 million on Floyd Mayweather Jr. in his fight against Sugar Shane Mosley. Then, this past February he placed a $1 million dollar bet on the Green Bay Packers when they played the Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl XLV . Both times he won.
If he wins this latest bet, he said he'll be buying a new car to go along with his recently purchased $8.7 million dollar Maybach and $2.5 million dollar Bugatti Veyron.

Masspike Miles with new visuals for a tune off his ep 'The Road Less Traveled.'
Alex Da Kid has found a home. The super-producer has inked a deal to bring his label to Interscope Records.
The Grammy-winning hitmaker, who’s applied his platinum touch to artists including Eminem and Rihanna (“Love the Way You Lie”), B.o.B (“Airplanes”), Diddy-Dirty Money (“Coming Home”), and Dr. Dre (“I Need a Doctor”), has announced KIDinaKORNER as the name of his newly-minted label, which was formerly titled Wonderland Music.
The first offering will be a solo album from singer-songwriter Skylar Grey, who has written and appeared on many of Alex’s hits. Her buzz single “Dance Without You” will be released in full on June 7.
“Developing artists that influence and shape popular culture in an authentic way has always been a huge goal of mine,” said the London-born producer. “Jimmy Iovine understands that and has been a true mentor to me over the past year. I look forward to continuing all the success we have already had together.”
Iovine, Chairman of Interscope Geffen A&M, welcomed him to the family, also home to Eminem, Lady Gaga, and U2. “Interscope has always been committed to great producers, and I think in Alex we found one that will be around for a long time.”

After 19 years in the game Shaquille O'Neal is calling it quits. Once the most dominant big man in the game, injuries have taken their toll on the big man. He will go down as one of the best to ever play in the NBA.
Over the years there have been countless conspiracy theories surrounding the deaths of Tupac Shakur, Andy Kaufman, Elvis Presley, Jim Morrison and Bruce Lee. In a new brand new comic book, all of the fallen icons are brought back to life as crime fighters who faked their own deaths.
'Comeback Kings' is the brainchild of writers Matt Sullivan and Gabe Guarente and artist Ethan Young. All three recently spoke with Newsarama.com about what inspired them to make the comic book.
Newsarama: Matt, Gabe, this is definitely a series with a unique concept — what are the origins of the story? And how did you go about selecting which dead celebrities would comprise the team?
Matt Sullivan: The stars we chose are obviously all icons that died too young who could still be alive today — but they also all have an audience that believes (or wants to believe) they faked their own deaths. We thought it’d be interesting to use that folklore as a satirical springboard to comment on both celebrity culture and the superhero genre simultaneously. There’s actually a lot of common ground between the two. Our superstars are all larger than life characters, with both heroic attributes and tragic dimension — just like many comic book heroes. There are similar core issues: Are their talents (and the fame resulting from them) a gift or a curse?
Gabe Guarente: So when we started talking about the names that fit the bill — Bruce, Elvis, Andy Kaufman — we saw how each one could be different personality type in a super team. Andy could be the goofy master of disguise, Jim could be the brooding ladies man, etc. It seemed so natural, we wondered why they never teamed up before. Would have been the best Enter the Dragon sequel ever.
Nrama: Ethan, how did you get on board, and how does it compare to other work you've done in your career?
Ethan Young: Gabe and Matt found my website, youngillustrations.com, where I basically offer illustration services for all different types of projects: comics, storyboards, logos, you name it. They pitched me on the idea of a satirical super-hero comic and I was intrigued from the get-go. It's a lot of fun to work on. I've been able to expand my repertoire and fool around with zip-a-tone; most of my other work is just traditionally inked. I think the final product is going to look neat! People who are more familiar with my previous works will see Comeback Kings as a pleasant surprise.
In the comic book Tupac's character will mirror his real life persona in some ways according to Sullivan and Guarente
Sullivan: Our Tupac is a thug angel, torn between being a socially-conscious man of honor and a ready-to-die gangsta who just doesn’t give a fuck. Focusing his revolutionary impulses beyond “me against the world” is his mission — and his struggle.
Guarente: Also, as the youngest member of the group, he’s brash and doesn’t like to take orders from guys who he thinks are well past their primes. You’ll also be interested to see where he is in his alter ego “retired” lifestyle, before getting called back into duty. It’s definitely a softer side to the Tupac you might know.
'Comeback Kings' is being distributed through Ardden Entertainment and is available now. To read more about it go to www.Newsarama.com.

If you haven't heard the term "Golf Wang" or seen the abbreviation OFWGKTA, short for Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All, it might be time to familiarize yourself with Odd Future.
The rowdy Los Angeles based crew are fronted by energetic rapper Tyler The Creator. And includes singer Frank Ocean, who's single "Novacane" is currently burning up the airwaves.
The buzz they have created will most likely only get louder now that Eminem has co-signed them. He told MTV that although he hasn't heard as much from the group as he wants to, he is feeling them.
"I think that from the stuff that I've heard — I haven't heard a lot from them, I still have to go check out everything that they're doing — but I've heard enough to know that it feels like they're pushing boundaries and buttons, and that's definitely one of the things that I'm familiar with, especially when I first came out." Em said. "I love it, I love the fact that they're doing that. And the dudes can rhyme."
Em's 'Bad Meets Evil' partner Royce Da 5'9 agreed, and added that he likes what Frank Ocean is doing.
"I'm a big Frank Ocean fan," Royce said. "I'm feelin' the whole group. I'm with Em, though — I haven't heard enough of them. I heard more Frank Ocean, for some reason. It seems like he's standing out, for some reason."
Check out Odd Future's performance of "Sandwiches" on Jimmy Fallon and see what you think of them.

Back in 1993 when Notorious B.I.G. dropped his first hit "Party and Bullsh*t" almost everyone that heard it immediately recognized he had something special going for him. Prodigy of Mobb Deep was one of the few exceptions.
"As far as the Biggie thing, a lot of our people would come on the block back in the days when Biggie had 'Party and Bullsh*t,' his first record. And they would play it, I wasn't into it," Prodigy admitted in an interview with MTV. "I was focused on Mobb Deep. I had tunnel vision: I really didn't give a f*ck what anybody was doing in rap music, except for Mobb Deep and Nas and our little circle. Everything else was irrelevant to me."
Prodigy says he even turned down an invitation from Biggie to collaborate on a song with him.
"Hav started doing a lot of production for people, and he did a beat for Big - and Big wanted me to get on it. I told Hav I just really didn't want to do that. That was my opinion at that time," P said. "Unfortunately Biggie lost his life. I started liking Biggie after he started heating up, I started re-listening to it. I was like, 'This kid is alright. I like, son.' Sometimes that happens in life though."
A Prodigy and Biggie Smalls collaboration over Havoc's production would have been special. Too bad it never happened.

Ernestine Shepherd may have a few gray hairs on her head, but she's in better shape than most people in their twenties.
The 74-year old grandmother will be added to the 2012 Guinness Book of World Records as the oldest female bodybuilder.
Suffering from depression, high blood pressure and acid reflux, Shepherd began working out 20 years ago and hasn't looked back since
Shepherd gets up every morning at 3am and runs 10 miles, before hitting the gym.
"I may do some push ups, pull downs, shoulders, biceps," she says of her workout routine.
At 5-foot-5 and 130 pounds, she maintains a healthy diet of plain brown rice, chicken breasts, vegetables and three glasses of raw egg whites a day.
The Baltimore native remembers her 1st bodybuilding competition like it was yesterday. "I was so happy to be out there with these people. And boy, just to be out there in that [swim] suit - I just felt so great. And I thought I looked good too."
Shepherd, who has been married for 54 years to 80-year old Collin Shepherd, has a 54-year old son and a 14-year old grandson. All of whom are amazed at her accomplishments, which include nine marathons and two bodybuilding trophies over the past 18 years.
This is definitely one lady who proves that age is nothing but a number.

Rihanna releases her latest single off of her 'Loud' album.
Beanie Sigel was once a key a key member of Jay-Z's Roc-A-Fella team. The Philadelphia rapper and his State Property family helped Hov build a dynasty. But when that dynasty crumbled so did his relationship Jay-Z.
Starting in October 2009, Beans began airing Hov out on a several diss tracks. He released "Kill A Jigga Man", "What You Talkin Bout (Average Cat)" and "I Go Off", but Jay never responded.
Today (May 31) Beanie issued an apology to the man he dissed so viciously.
“What Mike Epps say? ‘Gangstas f*ck up too,’” Sigel told XXLMag.com. “Whatever I felt this dude Jay did wrong to me, it can’t outweigh the one thing he did do for me – he gave me an opportunity. Dude gave me an opportunity. A lot of people don’t get opportunities. He gave me that. That outweighs everything. I need that in black and white. I got caught in the moment and put my feelings out there. I should have never done that.”
Whether or not his relationship with Jay can be fixed is anybody's guess, but the Broad Street Bully says it could have gotten worse. He told XXL he has an album's worth of disses going at Hov's head, but he won't release them now.
“I was explaining the whole Roc-A-Fella sh*t and a lot of feelings were going to get hurt,” he said. “I was airing sh*t out. Just the homies could listen to that when they come into the studio. I couldn’t put that out. It wouldn’t sit right with me.”
Next up for Beans is a mixtape and album with DJ Green Lantern.
What do you make of Beanie's apology? Do you think Jay-Z will ever forgive him and work with him again?
