The young beast mc J. Cole is about to drop his debut cd. And instead of filling it up with features, Cole is doing something almost unheard of these days by doing the entire album solo.
"No features man, you might get a last minute Jay-Z feature or you might not......yeah you probably will, but other than that no features man," he tells Toure'. I feel like it says something...it makes a statement to be able to come out and put out that first album and not have any features.....no major features or not every hottest rapper in the game. It says something, I'll get em on the next one, but this one I got too much to say to really be giving up first spots."
One thing you don't want to do in J.Cole's presence is diss Canibus. He tells Toure about a fight he got into with an old head dissing 'Bus.
"We was on the bus, I think we were like going to some basketball game. It was this older dude, he didn't know what he was talking about. He was dissing Canibus and I got mad."
J. Cole's debut album 'Cole World' is coming soon.

Gucci Mane has got work in the streets with his mixtape 'Mr Zone 6' and he tells Jenny Boom Boom he's got a lot more coming with a new solo album and group album with Waka Flocka & OJ Da Juiceman in the works.
Being an established star, Mr Laflare doesn't have to keep putting out mixtapes, but he says the tapes are a reflection of his work ethic in the studio.
"I record so much music sometimes I get to the point I need to dump and reload," he tells Jenny,
Gucci said his new album 'Georgia's Most Wanted' is dropping August 31 and he already has the new single wby the same name out in the streets.
Gucci's services are also in high demand for features. He has new music coming out with a wide range of artists including Ke$ha, 3Oh3, Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus.
So expect to see and hear a lot from Gucci Mane in the next several months.
Radivoke Lajic, 50, said that his house being hit by rocks from space was the result of an extraterrestrial grudge.
"I am obviously being targeted by extraterrestrials," he said.
"I don't know what I have done to annoy them but there is no other explanation that makes sense.
"The chance of being hit by a meteorite is so small that getting hit six times has to be deliberate."
Mr Lajic, who lives in the village of Gornji Lajici in northern Bosnia, near Prijedor, said that the meteorite strikes always happen when it is raining.
The first meteorite struck his house in November 2007.
Scientists at Belgrade University have confirmed that the rocks are all meteorites.
"I have no doubt I am being targeted by aliens," he said.
"They are playing games with me. I don't know why they are doing this. When it rains I can't sleep for worrying about another strike."
Mr Lajic has reinforced his roof with steel for fear that a meteor may hit his house.
He paid for the steel girder by selling one of the meteorites to a university in the Netherlands.
"But these meteorites have brought happiness to our family as well, as we've met different people from around the world that were interested in it," he said.
"And I have had so many visitors that I plan to make a small museum in my back garden."
Mr Lajic first hit the headlines two years ago, when the fifth meteorite struck his house.
Scientists are now studying magnetic fields around the property to try and explain the frequency of the strikes

(CNN) -- The Smoking Jacket, Playboy's nudity-free, "safe-for-work" website, debuted Tuesday -- a bid by the iconic men's magazine to stay relevant in a cyberworld full of anything-goes competitors.
"Cube dwellers and office drones alike shall rejoice at this fun, sexy, satirical antidote to the drudgery of the work day," Playboy editorial director Jimmy Jellinek said in a written statement.
The site, which "provides guys with smart and sexy distractions throughout the day," according to the statement, is geared toward the blogosphere, with short posts and links to viral content from other sites.
Playboy Enterprises did not have immediate numbers on visits to the site, which went live shortly after midnight. But some pages were loading slowly Tuesday, which spokeswoman Theresa Hennessey said was due to heavy traffic.
"It's been pretty phenomenal so far," Hennessey said.
Through its decades of existence, Playboy magazine has staked out different ground from most of its skin-baring competitors, mixing nude photos with lifestyle features, interviews with celebrities and politicians, and short fiction by well-known authors.
Based on its debut content on Tuesday, though, The Smoking Jacket -- despite its lack of nudity -- may be taking a more lowbrow route.
Featured articles included "How to get laid at work," "7 signs that you've given up on getting laid," and "Americans totally dig STD-like sensations."
It provides links to such journalistic efforts as a blog post about stripper cage fighting and another on the 2010 Hooters Bikini Contest in Pelham, Alabama.
The empire's original site, Playboy.com, will continue offering its 6 million monthly visitors "nudity, as well as lifestyle articles that are typically longer, more reverent, and written in a similar style as those appearing in Playboy magazine," the company's statement said.
The new site also featured a short welcome video from Playboy founder Hugh Hefner, dressed, of course, in one of the trademark jackets that inspired the website's name.
"The Smoking Jacket isn't just something I like to wear around the mansion. It's Playboy's new safe-for-work website," he says. "Next to the mansion, it's the best hangout on the planet."
The new site rolls out as traditional adult-entertainment outlets like Playboy struggle to keep up in an online world where free pictures of nude people are just a mouse-click away.
Playboy Enterprises reported a net loss of nearly $1 million in the first quarter of this year -- actually better than what was predicted.
The company reported a loss of $13.7 million during the same quarter last year.
"We believe that 2010 will be a transitional year and that the true benefits of our strategy will be more fully evident next year," Playboy CEO Scott Flanders said in a statement earlier this year.
The rollout also comes days after the owners of rival Penthouse announced they would like to buy out Playboy, and Hefner himself publicly mulled buying outstanding shares of the company and taking it private.

This is that real Mission Impossible type stuff right here.
New footage has emerged of a gang making a daring heist in Sweden. The gang broke into a cash depot by landing on the glass roof in a helicopter. Then smashed their way in using a mechanical saw and explosives.
They used suspicious bags placed at the police heliport to prevent them from using their own helicopters to chase the thieves.
The thieves got away clean with $5 million dollars.
10 people were eventually arrested and go on trial next month for the crime, but no money has ever been recovered.

Everybody else has given their opinion on the Lebron James move to the Miami Heat so why not Lil Wayne?
The incarcerated took to his blog to talk about the new Heat team and the NBA.
Oh Lebron! The recent move by the Miami Heat confirms that we will someday soon have that good ole basketball back with all due respect to the Lakers-Celtics 7 game series. This move reminds me of the days when it was Johnson, Worthy, and Jabbar vs. Bird, Parrish, and McHale, or Thomas, Dumars, and Lambeer. Well now we have Bryant, Gasol, Bynum, and Pierce, Allen, Garnett, and ultimately, Wade, bosh, and James! Do expect this to become “protocol” to win an NBA title. As for many more teams have and will be stacking their rosters with stars.
I believe that this Miami team will be explosive as intended. Anything less than an NBA championship title will be uncivilized. 72-10 anybody?. Well with Wade at the 1 and Lebron at the 2 or vice versa even, or Mario Chalmers at the 1, Wade at the 2, and Bron at the 3… Wow! Not to mention that I didn’t mention Bosh, who can live at the 4 or 5. Zone defense will be a must against this team. That’s 3 players on the court that commands a double team. Just imagine those guys on a fast break, the defender back peadaling… Wade can take it to the hole or throw it up and you know Bron. Bron is going to get it… or dish it back to a trailing Chris Bosh who will definitely finish at the rim… again, wow! Or how about Wade at the 3-point line, Bosh setting the pick, and Lebron in the passing lane. And if you collapse on them, don’t forget that Chalmers can knock down the shot. I bet that they lead the league in alley-oops. And they’re all young! Scary! Hey, what if Pat Riley returns to the sidelines and it ends up being the Lakers vs. Heat in the finals? Riley vs. Jackson! Epic! Gasol on Bosh, Ron-Ron on Bron-Bron, and Kobe on Wade… wow!

Jake Shields has signed his UFC contract and is dropping back to welterweight to face Martin Kampmann at UFC 121 in October.
Shields was the reigning Strikeforce middleweight champion and is currently riding a 14-fight win streak. He last fought in April, where he defeated Dan Henderson in Henderson's Strikeforce debut.
Shields was almost a lock to go to the UFC after winning that fight. The lion's share of the promotional materials for "Strikeforce: Nashville" centered on Henderson, despite Shields holding the title, and that angered Shields. Rightly so, I might add. He was the champion of the division and received almost zero promotional push for the fight. Strikeforce was right to shine a spotlight on Henderson, but Shields is a talented fighter who deserved to be promoted as well.
If Shields beats Kampmann, he'll immediately jump to the front of the line for a welterweight title shot against Georges St. Pierre in 2011. Kampmann is a tough opponent and a perennial top contender in the division, so it's an immediate test to see where Shields stands in his new company.

Lil Kim is back making more headlines with controversial statements. The Queen Bee is still feeling some type of way about Foxy Brown, Nicki Minaj, Birdman and Lil Cease.
In a recent interview with BlackVoices, Kim spoke her mind about all three of them.
Regarding a possible reconciliation with Fox Boogie Kim had this to say:
"I don't even want to mention her. No, because she's just somebody that's just. ...No, I don't even want to mention her. One moment she got something bad to say about me, one moment she got something good to say. I don't like that flip flop sh--, that just means that you're still crazy! My mom always told me if you know there's a snake in the grass, and you know it's a snake that bit you before, why would you pick it back up? I'm not picking back up anymore snakes no more."
When asked if she and her former partner in rhyme from the group Junior M.A.F.I.A., Lil Cease had patched up their differences she simply said "No". But she added she does have unfinished business from her time with the group.
"I'm coming back to get the money that I left on the table when I went to jail. The money that I left on the table when me and [Junior] M.A.F.I.A. broke up. The money that I left on the table after Biggie died, I'm coming back to get all of it. And not only that, I'm coming back to give my fans what they truly deserve, this is for them."
Kim's biggest issues of late have been with Young Money femcee, Nicki Minaj who she feels has copied her style and run with it.
People may be surprised to hear that Kim actually has a good relationship with 1/2 of Cash Money's upper management. She told Blackvoices that her relationship Ronald "Slim" Williams goes back 4 or 5 years.
However, things aren't so rosy with Birdman. Kim claims she recorded a song for a Birdman project titled "Grinding Making Money" which also included Nicki Minaj. She says Baby didn't like the fact that she outshined Nicki on the record so they stopped pushing the record. That didn't sit well with Kim.
"When they put the record out, I guess the response that they got for her wasn't what they wanted because everybody was saying that I smashed the record. So [Baby] pulled the record back. They f---ing sh---ed on me!? Ok, now it's time, now it's war, because I'm tired. I'm tired of people taking advantage of me and being quiet and people don't know what's going on."
Big Snoop Dogg has been forced to close down his his clothing line, The Rich and Infamous due to poor sales according to a report on Chron.com
Snoop rolled out the clothing line in 2008 along with The Robert Thorn Company, but things just never panned out.
The recent economic downturn certainly contributed to the company's demise.
Last year Snoop hinted the company was in trouble when he announced that he and his partners were having a hard time trying "to do what we're doing and try to keep the prices a little lower"
Things just never worked out and Snoop was forced to discontinue the line rather than continue losing money.

Countless artists entertain audiences at concerts by bringing someone from the crowd on stage to dance with, sing to or hug.
Drake does it just a bit different. He brings pretty females on stage and breaks their hearts by not kissing them, lol.
Drizzy brought a young lady to the stage at his Ottawa concert Friday (July 16). After a lot of hand waving and gesturing the Young Money mc bent down to kiss the obviously star struck fan on the lips only to jerk his head away at the last moment.
The girl looked pretty confused and a little embarrassed as Drake dismissed her back to her seat. But from what I've read she was only 16 years old and it's obvious Drake knew that.

Floyd Mayweather’s camp issued a statement Monday afternoon regarding recent comments made by Manny Pacquiao’s promoter, Bob Arum.
At 11:59 p.m. on July 16, Arum held a conference call to inform media members that although both sides of the potential megafight had basically agreed on all points of a contract to meet on Nov. 13, Mayweather’s hesitancy to sign off on the deal has forced Top Rank to seek a new opponent for Pacquiao.
In a statement released Monday, Mayweather’s advisor and Leonard Ellerbe said that a deal between the two sides has never been met as Arum had suggested.
“Here are the facts,” the statement said. “(Mayweather’s manager) Al Haymon, (Golden Boy Promotions CEO) Richard Schafer and myself speak to each other on a regular basis and the truth is no negotiations have ever taken place, nor was there ever a deal agreed upon by Team Mayweather or Floyd Mayweather to fight Manny Pacquiao on Nov. 13.
It was the first statement made by anyone on Mayweather’s side since negotiations reportedly began following Mayweather’s latest win over Shane Mosley on May 1. If made, the fight is expected to be the richest in boxing history with each fighter making up to $60 million.
Both sides were put under a gag order by HBO during negotiations, a request that ended when Arum leaked to certain news sites that the deal was close in late June.
In his conference call on July 16, Arum admitted he hadn’t been in contact directly with Mayweather’s camp and that all negotiations were being relayed through HBO president Ross Greenburg.
Ellerbe’s statement verified as much, saying that either Greenburg or Arum was lying about the negotiations. Not surprisingly, Ellerbe hinted that Arum, who once promoted Mayweather before the two had a falling out, was the culprit
“Either Ross Greenburg or Bob Arum is not telling the truth,” Ellerbe said. “But history tells us who is lying.”
Pacquiao is expected to now face either Miguel Cotto or Antonio Margarito on Nov. 13. According to Arum, a deal with either of those two could be made as quickly as next week.
