Ty Dolla $ign was in Paris, France recently. While there he sat down with Booska-P.
The multi-talented rapper/singer/songwriter/producer discusses his Beach House EP, forthcoming debut album Free TC, named for his brother who is incarcerated for a murder he didn't, people who stunt, his father being a musician, playing multiple instruments, writing the first verse and chorus for Chris Brown's"Loyal" and more.
The second season of Dream School premieres tonight at 10/9c on Sundance TV. The reality television show that TV Guide calls "inspiring" is produced by 50 Cent and Jamie Oliver.
A group New York City teens dealing with problems ranging from poverty to drugs will be mentored by celebrity teachers Chuck D, Gloria Allred, Johnny Weir, Cliff Dorfman, Dean Winters, LouAnne Johnson, Don Rimx, Les Stroud and David Chang.

"When we get into Dream School, you watch those kids make those adjustments right there in front of you," 50 Cent told Vibe recently. "These kids would be out of school but it's one of those scenarios where they're receiving the opportunity they wouldn't under any other circumstances. You see this television show when it's a different, full life opportunity for everyone on it. Reality television doesn't stand for that. It's a huge relevance that's obvious to the show with 3,030,000 kids in America dropping out [of high school] a year. Every 26 seconds, someone drops out. Every day, 8,300 people drop out."

Attorney Gloria Allred
“I wanted them to get involved in debate because I wanted them to understand how to resolve conflict,” Allred told Forbes. ”This season, we see more emotion,” said executive producer Andrew Jameson. “These are students who really came together and bonded. … This took it to another level.”
Graffiti Artist & Muralist Don Rimx
“What doesn’t work for our brand, what audiences don’t want to see, are the types of storytelling where you know what the producers are doing but it’s very entertaining anyway,” said Sarah Barnett, president of SundanceTV. ‘That works very well in other contexts, but it doesn’t work for us. There’s something about being authentic. But at the same time, we don’t want it to feel like broccoli TV because that’s just not effective.”
Fresh off of her interview on The Breakfast Club, Nyemiah Supreme let's men know exactly how she gets down in a new song entitled "What It Taste Like." Give it a listen up top.
October's Very Ownrecording artist ILoveMakonnenhas a popular song entitled"Tuesday"featuringDrakethat is gaining him lots of new fans.
Various artists have put out unofficial remixes of it and the singer is not exactly happy about it. After Troy Ave dropped his version yesterday, Makonnen took to his Twitter account to throw a few darts at the remakes.
Never one to bite his tongue, Troy quickly fired back.
Should ILoveMakonnen be flattered other artists like his song enough to remix it? Or should artists respect his comments and leave"Tuesday"alone?

A man at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas has tested positive for the Ebola virus. It's the first case diagnosed in the United States.
The patient has been in isolation since being admitted to the hospital on September 26 with Ebola-like symptoms. He had recently returned from a trip to Liberia.
"The patient developed symptoms days after returning to Texas from West Africa and was admitted into isolation on Sunday at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas," the Texas Department of State Health Services said in a statement.
TheCenter for Disease Control just held a press conference at its headquarters in Atlanta.
They are stressing that the virus is difficult to catch because it's spread through bodily fluids and is not an airborne disease. CDC Director Dr. Thomas Frieden is confident it will not spread to other parts of the U.S.
The disease is currently ravaging West Africa. The death toll there has reached 3000 so far in 2014.

When Amber Rose filed for divorce from Wiz Khalifa last week everyone was caught off guard except the rapper. According to TMZ, Wiz had already told Amber that he "didn't want to be married to her anymore."
Still it must have been a real surprise for Amber when she walked in on a 2 a.m. threesome Wiz was allegedly having with twin sisters Jas and Ness Rose, which put the final nail in the marriage's coffin.
Today Hot 97'sPeter Rosenberg, who is close friends with Amber, shed more light on the situation.
"It's confirmed that Wiz cheated... that's a known thing," Peter said. “Them saying that their marriage was over, that’s just not true. Did they have problems? Absolutely. Amber, who is incredibly faithful, and you know she's faithful when the dude that she's hanging out with is me! I believe from my relationship with Amber, that she knew they had problems, she knew he wasn’t happy. She wasn’t happy either, but she was also like, ‘He’s touring, he’s going through a lot, and at some point we’re going to work on this again.'”
That chance to work on things didn't happen because Wiz was busy chopping down other sexual conquests.
Jas and Ness Rose
“Amber walked in on him with two women at the same time,” Peter continued. “Twins, twin sisters, twin biological sisters. That wasn't some new home that was just his. That was a home that he's had, that [Amber's] slept in. That's how she got in there, she had a key. This wasn’t some separate thing. It’s a place she goes to.”
Peter also shot down rumors of an affair between Amber andNick Cannon.
“You all can say what you want about Amber Rose. Amber Rose is a smart-ass, savvy businesswoman who, before any of this happened, she was hustling,” he explained. “She signed with Incredible, Nick Cannon’s company. She would never then sleep with the dude that she signed with.”
There are two side to every story, but given what is being said do you believe this story about Wiz and the fashion designer twins?

Walmart is claiming that Tracy Morgan and the passengers in his limo bus weren't wearing seat belts when their company big rig slammed into them. The company says the resulting injuries were caused "in whole or in part" by their "failure to properly wear an appropriate available seat belt restraint device."
Walmart made the claims in a federal court filing on Monday, September, 29, in a response to Morgan's lawsuit against them.
James McNair
The comedian/actor suffered a broken nose, broken ribs and a broken leg in the June 7, 2014 crash on the New Jersey turnpike. His friend and fellow comedian James McNair was killed.
Three other passengers, Jeffrey and Krista Millea and Ardley Fuqua were also injured.
An attorney representing Morgan and the other plaintiffs called Walmart's contentions "surprising and appalling."
"It's disingenuous," attorney Benedict Morelli said. "It's not what they said they were going to do initially, which was take full responsibility. I'm very upset, not for myself but for the families I represent."
Kevin Roper was driving the Walmart big rig at the time of the wreck. The impact of the crash overturned Morgan's limo bus.
Roper was reportedly going 20 miles over the speed limit. He was charged with vehicular homicide and assault by auto. He pleaded not guilty on June 11, during an arraignment in Middlesex County Superior Court in New Brunswick, New Jersey. He faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted on all charges.
Morgan wants a jury trial. He is seeking punitive and compensatory damages
