Video After The JumpRandy Moss' improbable return to Minnesota is about to become reality.
The Vikings and the Patriots have agreed to a blockbuster trade that will send the Pro Bowl wide receiver back to Minnesota for the Vikings' 2011 third-round pick on Wednesday, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
When the trade is completed, the Patriots will have two picks in each of the first four rounds of the 2011 draft -- their own picks and a first-round pick from Oakland, a second-round pick from Carolina, the third-round pick from Minnesota and a fourth-rounder from Denver.
A source close to Moss told ESPN NFL senior analyst Chris Mortensen that Patriots coach Bill Belichick informed Moss of the trade on Wednesday morning by telephone. The source said the conversation was cordial, with both men expressing appreciation for the time they spent together.
Moss will report to the Vikings on Wednesday and is said to be "excited" about returning to his original team with Brett Favre at quarterback, the source said. No contract extension talks have been conducted, but it is expected the two sides will have a discussion later in the day, the source said.
FoxSports.com earlier reported the trade talks.
The seven-time Pro Bowl receiver is in the final year of his four-year contract with New England and has voiced his displeasure with being in limbo.
"When you have done so much and put so much work in, it kind of feels like I am not wanted," Moss said before the season began on Sept. 6. "I am taking that in stride and playing my final year out and whatever the future holds is what it holds, but it is kind of a bad feeling -- feeling not wanted. It is not like my production has gone down."
A few days later he apologized for the timing of his comments and said he loves playing in New England.
But the Boston Herald, citing an unnamed source, reported on Tuesday that Moss wanted out of New England after a Week 1 win on Sept. 12, telling his agent to ask the Patriots to trade him.
Although the Patriots crushed the Dolphins on Monday night, Moss did not have a catch -- the first time that's happened for him in a New England uniform.
Moss and Belichick did not speak or even see each other on Tuesday, a league source told Schefter.

Video After The JumpBugatti's, million dollar watches, now their own credit card. Looks like Young Money is stuntin a little bit.
Well, the credit cards are actually debit cards branded with the YM logo. Mack Maine told Boombox that fans will soon have the opportunity to cop one of their own. Possibly with the logo of their favorite crew member on it.
"It is true, so make sure the fans and the people that are interested sign up. It's a prepaid card. We're not starting it out with each member having their own card just yet. It's just pretty much a Young Money card and then we'll branch out to like Nicki Minaj pink cards, maybe having Wayne and Drake cards being like the black cards. You know, just different levels of it. Maybe have Twist and Chuckee for the younger crowd. We'll make sure each member has it as we learn the ropes." Mack said.
While on the set of Mack Maine's upcoming video "All In One Swipe", Mack and Bow Wow show off their black and platinum YM cards.
Once the cards are available, stores like Target will offer discounts to customers who use them instead of cash.
Sip Hop,Born James Dillard in February 17, 1984 Located at Cleveland, MS. Son of mother Maxine Jackson. I first got into Hip Hop when i was a child, liking poetry style, and street wisdom. I remember when i was in the 7th grade, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony & Twista was having a tongue twist movement. so i started just doing a little twist with it but i was loving hip hop like Nas, Jadakiss and Jay-z because of the fact, it was the truth. so after that first rhyme i just went ahead to keep up with it. my first studio session was in Chicago, IL at a studio called Shockhouse productions.Met a emcee name H2O, i mean this dude was a real emcee plus we were classmates at a College name Kennndy-King City College. At the time i just rushing that moment to get myself to be indie for hip hop even though it was getting there but at the end of the story it got bad. then i move back to Cleveland,MS to get myself right and plus finsh school and try to connect with studio companies in misssissippi. Djilla, cool cat, you know. He had a Studio let me do what i do, but the problem became with me just freestyle in the booth. it was funny because of the fact that i was just being real hip hop. then my next studio session was in Atlanta,GA, at the time i was starting to love the mixtape game because mixtapes is your backbone in hip hop basides Djays. with me as a artist I'm more as a southern emcee just keeping it real, having fun, being fresh to def, having a state of mind and sexing your chick at the same time.

It's been three years since Lupe Fiasco dropped his last album. In today's hip hop world that's an eternity.
Lupe's fans are ready to rise up and revolt against his label, Atlantic Records.
On October 15 fans will be outside Atlantic's headquarters protesting and demanding Lupe's long awaited 'Lasers' album be released according to the Village Voice.
17 year old Mathew La Corte is the organizer of the protest dubbed Fiasco Friday. He and a lot of other fans are simply fed up with Atlantic holding Lupe's album hostage with no release date in sight.
La Corte has amassed 29,000 signatures on a petition, there's also a Facebook group with 900 members. He talked to Village Voice about how this all started.
"Well, three years ago Lupe came out and said that he was going to do a new album. And we were kind of waiting around for things to happen. Then Lupe started to release some information about how the album was finished, the album was done, and he gave it into his record label Atlantic and nothing was happening. It was in their hands and he couldn't do anything. So we continued to wait. And then there was a petition that was started, and people started to spread that around, and now I think we're at 29,000 signatures. But we gave that in to Atlantic this summer and what happened was they tweeted that it was coming; that was all they were saying. They refused to give us any official information about why it hasn't been released. And I think many of us feel personally disrespected that they really have blatantly just been completely silent on this issue--that's basically what started this whole thing."
When asked why pick Lupe out of hundreds or rappers who get their albums shelved every year, La Corte had this to say.
"Personally I feel that Lupe Fiasco is a completely different breed of rapper. There are a lot of other types of rappers and what we really wanted to focus on was not talking about other rappers and what they do and naming names, but focusing on Lupe and his positive message and the things he talks about in his songs. It's also what he does outside the record booth and all the things he does for charity. He just climbed Mount Kilimanjaro last year for charity. He just donated coats for a children's charity. He's a rapper but he's also a social advocate, he's a political activist. He does things that really break the mold of that traditional rapper, and I think that's what draws a lot of people to his music is that here's a guy who is really talking about some of the most major issues that a lot of people feel, and that's why a lot of people can relate to him. Because we all, as the youth and even as older people, we have thoughts about what's going on, what's happening around us and we want to express those thoughts.
And people have said, "Oh, there are so many other reasons you could be protesting. Why are you protesting Lupe Fiasco?" I think that it's important that we get behind one person who's going put out information and ideas that other rappers aren't. That's a major portion of why we're doing this in the first place. Why is Atlantic not putting out this record? You can see right now how strong of a fanbase he has. Is the issue that it's not commercial? You're not going to hear a Lupe Fiasco songs on many radio stations. Are you gonna be able to get that money as the Atlantic Music Corporation from radio play? It's not gonna happen. So what idea is Atlantic Records putting out? That it's okay to bring our children up with this music that's all about me going out and partying tonight? Is that really what we're all looking for? I mean, rap and music and creative expression has forever been used to reflect the society, and what's going on in the world right now. I think there's a lot of other things that rappers can be expressing, and the things that are on the radio are really do not reflect what this society is all about. And I think that's why there's so much push behind Lupe, because he's really much more than just a rapper from Chicago. He represents a generation, and a movement."
It's good to see fans actually doing something instead of sitting in front of their computers b*tching and whining. Whether it will make a difference remains to be seen.

Video After The JumpIn a recent interview with True Stories Radio Brian Pumper was asked about allegations he jacked the beat for his Juelz Santana diss record "Ratchets" from some rappers in Coney Island.
Pumper responded by saying he and his producer made the beat, and that the Coney Island dudes were "clowns".
What Pumper didn't realize at the time is that the dudes he dissed were Math Hoffa, D. Chamberz and the NYB crew. He takes the time to dead the beef before it goes any further. Saying he's since spoken with Chamberz and hopes they can possibly do a joint together in the future.
With that bullet hopefully dodged, he went in on his favorite target of late, Lethal Lipps.
"Lethal Lipps you big fat ham smuggling daughter of a b*tch. How dare you come out that ugly meatball you call a face talking sh*t about me h*e. B*tch I know you work ar Subway. Tell me how you go from doing porn to selling $5 foot longs."

Video After The Jump50 Cent and Chelsea Handler have been hinting that they had something going on between them for a while now. So it shouldn't come as a surpise that a picture of the two of them together in New Orleans on a dinner date has surfaced.
A part of me says this may be for publicity, but then again Chelsea wouldn't be a bad catch for a guy in 50's position. She's making lots of money and is just the kind of high profile broad that will keep the media talking about the couple.
Before settling in for his date with Chelsea, Fif spit a freestyle for house band Main Line.Read more…

Moebius syndrome is a rare neurological disorder that is present at birth. It primarily affects the 6th and 7th cranial nerves, leaving those with the condition unable to move their faces (they can’t smile, frown, suck, grimace or blink their eyes) and unable to move their eyes laterally.

T.I. may find out soon whether he will be headed back to prison for a possible probation violation in connection with his arrest last month on drug charges in Los Angeles.According to TMZ, the rapper (born Clifford Harris) will go before Judge Charles Pannell on October 15 to plead for his probation not to be revoked over the arrest. A spokesperson for one of Tip's attorneys, Ed Garland, would not confirm the date, nor would Pannell's office.When T.I. and wife Tameka "Tiny" Cottle were arrested in Los Angeles on September 1, police originally charged them with possession of a controlled substance — a substance that was later revealed to be Ecstasy. But according to new documents, that might not have been the only drug in their possession. The charges could send T.I. back to prison.Last month E! Online obtained documents in which T.I.'s probation officer reported that L.A. County Sheriff's deputies also found codeine and marijuana in his possession during the arrest. The documents were filed as part of a summons issued by U.S. District Judge Pannell, requiring T.I. to appear before the court to explain why his probation should not be revoked after the incident. The judge's order lists three possible violations of his probation: possession of Ecstasy, testing positive for opiates and associating with a convicted felon."We are very disappointed in Mr. Harris' recent conduct," United States Attorney Sally Quillian Yates said in an e-mail to MTV News on September 17. "We will make our sentencing recommendation at the revocation hearing."While the drug possession could present a major problem for the rapper — who spent 10 months in prison after his 2007 arrest for illegally attempting to purchase firearms in Atlanta — the terms of his probation in the case included provisions to avoid contact with known felons.According to reports, T.I. was accompanied by a convicted felon when he was pulled over and arrested in Los Angeles. The felon in question was reportedly Cortez "C-Rod" Thomas, the man who allegedly helped facilitate T.I.'s attempted illegal firearm purchase in October 2007, which led to the MC's prison term. Thomas, according to records, allegedly assisted T.I. by transferring a wealth of cash to the rapper's bodyguard. The bodyguard was later set up by federal officials and agreed to participate in a sting against the Atlanta MC.Thomas was never charged in the incident, but he is named, and information regarding his past is included in material related to T.I.'s original case. Thomas' rap sheet includes drug charges and claims of physical intimidation; earlier this year, he was convicted on felony drugs and weapon charges and received 15 years' probation.Source:MTVRead more…
Audio After The JumpSidney Starr isn't going away anytime soon. Chingy's male lover of the last two years says he wants to do television. So my guess is we will keep hearing from him until he either stops getting interviewed by the media or starts exposing the other rappers he claims he's slept with.
Pow-TV caught up with him to get his opinion on Brian Pumper, Kat Stacks and his favorite rapper Lil Wayne.
"My all time favorite artist is Lil Wayne, I love Poppin Bottles, that's one of my all time favorites with Birdman and Lil Wayne," Starr said.
Uhuh... and what about Brian Pumper's rapping ability. Is he also a favorite?
"Oh my God, he sucks, I'm sorry. Brian you suck, you need to stick to your day job. He's making a fool of himself. I definitely think he should hang it up," Sid says. "Brian holla at me on that other side, cuz I'm available."
The main person Sid will be competing for air time with is Kat Stacks, he shares his opinion on her as well.
"Kat Stacks to me... she's doing her own thing. I don't agree with the way she does what she does. I don't wanna knock her, but I believe she could do things in a better, smarter way. I think she's kind of going cut throat with it and I think that's kind of bad."
