A$AP Rocky's debut album is highly anticipated. Lots of rumors have been floating around about it's title and release date. Fuse TV caught up with the Harlem rapper and got the real deal.
"The name of my album is 'Long Live A$AP," he revealed. "My album comes out in July."
Another rumor A$AP cleared up had to do with the 2012 XXL Freshman Class cover. He clarified that he made the list, but wasn't on the cover because his schedule didn't permit him the time to shoot it. Without naming names he also trashed the list.
"Personally I'mma speak my mind. I think a lot of the motherf*ckers on the list is corny as f*ck," A$AP said. "But shout outs to Danny Brown. I think a few people on there are eligible for it."
Let's take a look at that list one more time:
Machine Gun Kelly, Danny Brown, Kid Ink, Future, Roscoe Dash, Hopsin, Macklemore, French Montana, Iggy Azalea and Don Trip.
After scratching off Danny Brown that leaves us with 9 possible targets. Who do you think A$AP is firing shots at?

This is a huge win for my fans and me."
Miller, who is about to start his "Macadelic Tour," also blessed the crowd with renditions of "Smile Back," "Donald Trump" and "Loud." Fellow rapper MGK didn't go home empty handed, as he cradled the emerging artist "Breaking Woodie" hardware. "Thanks to my fans ... This is an award the world didn't want us to win but we did it together. Congrats to the fans and f--k me," said a humbled MGK.
The first-ever EDM Effect Woodie was handed over to Calvin Harris for the smash breakthrough of his hit with Rihanna, "We Found Love" and Hollywood royalty Drew Barrymore shared the Best Video Woodie for her directorial work on "Our Deal (Extended Version)," from Best Coast.
"Thanks to MTV. There is no venue or company like them," said Barrymore. "I wanted to tell a story set to the dreamy sounds of Best Coast's music. I am lucky to have had this opportunity!!! I hope I get another!"

With just over a week to before Boston George Pt. 2 drops, Mike Knox sends out a special vlog talking about what fans can expect.
"This cd is a different type of cd for me, especially because I opened up a lot more. So when you listen to it you will be able to hear it," Knox says of the project. "Certain things I've been through, certain things I'm going through, certain things I experienced. Took me a little while to get it together because I wanted it to be right. I didn't want to just put out a cd just over instrumentals. It's hosted by Kay Slay and 50 Cent, which I had the honor of them hosting it and blessing me with that type of look."
The project drops March 24th.

Kareem “Biggs” Burke pleaded guilty Thursday [March 15] to a single federal count of conspiracy to distribute, and to possess with intent to distribute more than 100 kilos of weed according to NorthJersey.com.
He entered the plea in Manhattan before U.S. District Judge Laura Taylor Swain.
Burke was nabbed after an 18-month investigation dubbed "Operation Green Venom." He, along with 50 others who were also arrested, was involved in a massive drug smuggling ring that distributed weed from Florida to New York.
The ring supplied the drugs to customers in New Jersey and New York.
Burke faces a minimum of five years in prison and up to a maximum 40 years when he is sentenced May 18. He also has to give up $660,000, his home, $15,000 in cash that was seized from his home when he was arrested in 2010, and his 2010 BMW.
