Already making big moves in the game, Fred The Godson plans on holding onto his spot for a while.

Fred The G spoke with Swagg DVD about the amount of love he's been getting from his peers and the hard work he's putting in to earn it.

"Saturday night I could be doing a lot of things, but you see where I'm at [in the studio]. You got a lot of people that want me now because of the work ethic as far as the lyrics, the videos and the freestyles. It's just everything to do with hard work. You gotta want to do it. Some people wanna do it halfway, if you take it halfway I don't think this game is for you," he said.

Fred has also gotten big co-signs from Jay-Z, Beanie Sigel and Rakim. He talks about what that feels like.

"That's motivation enough to keep going, these are rappers I look up to," Fred says. "Jay is one of the best ever. Beans I always looked at as one of my favorites and I would never guess in like a week turnaround, me tearing down a showcase, couple of days later I'd be in front of him rapping and he'd be blown away by it and the rest is history."

Being young in the game, Fred still hasn't had the chance to work with all of the producers and rapper's he would like to.  He names the top 5 in each category he'd like to link up with.

"Producers that I would like to work with I would say definitely Just Blaze, Dr Dre, DJ Khalil's a beast and Teddy Riley, I need one of them old school Guy joints," Fred said.  "Top rappers off the top, Big Pun and Biggie are my favorites, but their untimely demise messed everything up so I wouldn't even put them at the top 5. I'm just gonna say I wish, rest in peace.  But the top 5 rappers that I'd love that I think is crazy is Jay, of course 50 [Cent], Nas, Eminem and my boy Jadakiss."

Peep the rest of interview as Fred talks about his battles with asthma, kidney problems and diabetes and a lot more.

From what I can gather, this brawl started out as a fender bender in the parking lot of a Denny's in Chicopee, Massachusetts. Both parties wind up inside the restaurant where two separate fights between them break out.

The 1st fight was between two men, as one rained down punches on a guy who didn't even fight back.

The second fight involved two women who were with the 1st guy that got his ass kicked against a woman I can only assume came with the winner of the 1st fight. But by that time he had left.

Anyway, both of those chicks get their asses whipped, making that three ass beatings on the same party in a span of about 5 minutes, lol.

Holy Family men's basketball coach John O'Conner has been suspended pending the outcome of an investigation as to whether or not he assaulted one of his players.

During a late January practice the coach knocked down and kicked sophomore Matt Kravchuk, causing the player to bleed from the mouth and injure his wrist.

"It was totally out of line for my coach to do," Kravchuk said.  "We were just doing a drill and the next thing I know I'm on the floor."

O'Conner then screams at Kravchuk, "You got a little f*cking blood on you huh? ... good." When Kravchuk tells him he's the one that caused the blood, O'Conner gets even madder, sending him off the court yelling "get the f*ck outta here!"

Officials at the Division II school didn't reprimand the coach until after Kravchuk filed a police report nearly a month later.

"It aapeared to me that they were sweeping this under the rug," Kravchuk's lawyer said. "They told them [the player's family] that it had been handled, that the coach had been disciplined, refused to them what. They're still not being forthright as to what the suspension is. And our goal at this point is to make sure this coach is dealt with appropriately."

What do you think the school should do with the coach? Suspend him without pay or fire him?

"Tight pants n*ggas can't stand them now/F*ck em all except Danny Brown" - Sean Price 'Barry Ruff'

Hip hop has a line right down the middle and you're either on one side or the other. Those that wear skinny jeans and those that don't.

One rapper that rocks skinnies, but gets mad respect from those that don't is Detroit rapper Danny Brown.

All it takes is one listen to his mixtape 'The Hybrid" and you'll understand why.

Brown was almost signed to G-Unit last year, and even put out a mixtape with Tony Yayo titled 'Hawaiian Snow.'

He covers this month's issue of the Detroit Metro Times and tells then his didn't get signed to G-Unit for one simple reason.

“50 didn’t sign me because I wore skinnies,” he told the magazine. "It’s about confidence too because it’s a lot of niggas that they won’t do shit because they’re thinking about how another nigga gone think about them ,Where me, personally, I don’t dress for niggas I dress for bitches.”

Don't get it twisted though, Brown won't be doing any dance records like "Teach Me How To Dougie" anytime soon. He keeps his rhymes geared toward the street.

“I used to sell crack out of apartments off Clairmount and Third. Most of the stuff that I rap about is the truth. The line, ‘was so thirsty dog sold a pregnant bitch crack,’ that’s true. I really did that shit. She was smacking herself and everything. It definitely wasn’t a good time in my life," Brown said.

Carmelo Anthony is coming home, and that could mean that Donnie Walsh is leaving.

James Dolan pulled the trigger Monday night on a blockbuster deal for Anthony, the Brooklyn-born All-Star forward and former Syracuse standout, who for months was angling for an opportunity to join forces with Amar'e Stoudemire in New York. It's all part of the Knicks' ambitious plan to eventually add either Chris Paul or Deron Williams next year and give the club its own Big Three to compete against Miami and Boston.

The price for Anthony was steep, as the Knicks traded Danilo Gallinari, Raymond Felton, Wilson Chandler and rookie center Timofey Mozgov to the Denver Nuggets. They also gave Denver $3 million in cash plus a 2014 first-round pick and two second-round picks they had acquired from Golden State in last summer's sign-and-trade with David Lee.

The Knicks get Anthony, Chauncey Billups, Shelden Williams, Renaldo Balkman and Anthony Carter. In a separate deal, the Knicks traded Anthony Randolph and Eddy Curry to the Minnesota T-Wolves, who in turn will reportedly send Corey Brewer to the Knicks. As a condition of the deal, Anthony will get a 3-year, $65 million extension.

The deal was agreed to Monday night when Dolan, the chairman of Madison Square Garden, included Mozgov. The Nuggets had insisted on the 7-foot Russian center while Walsh, the team president, and head coach Mike D'Antoni felt the Knicks were giving up too much even without Mozgov. The moves will not be finalized until the commissioner's office passes on them Tuesday.

D'Antoni and Walsh were also not in favor of moving Gallinari, a 6-10 small forward with great range.

Walsh, whose patience helped the Knicks get under the salary cap and start the rebuilding process, wanted to wait until the summer to sign Anthony when he became a free agent. Dolan, however, wanted Anthony at any cost and overruled Walsh.

So while New York will be buzzing Wednesday when Anthony makes his Knicks' debut at the Garden against the Milwaukee Bucks, the trade will likely create massive upheaval in the front office.

Dolan took over the negotiations for Anthony last summer and according to sources is being advised by Isiah Thomas, the former Knicks president who is currently coaching at Florida International in Miami.

It was Thomas who informed Dolan last summer that he had received assurances from Anthony that the player would do everything in his power to either force a trade to the Knicks or sign with them as a free agent.

Although Walsh was willing to call Denver's bluff, once Dolan became directly involved in the negotiations all bets were off. Dolan, according to sources, did not want to lose Anthony to his new adversary, Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov. New Jersey was aggressive in its bid, which in turn forced the Knicks to increase their offer.

The addition of Billups is critical because the veteran guard provides leadership in the locker room and experience on the court. Carter and Williams are strictly bench players and Brewer is a strong defensive player.

The Knicks have available roster spots and assuming they don't make any trades between now and the Thursday 3 p.m. deadline, they might attempt to sign center Earl Barron. Another possibility is bringing back Jared Jeffries, who could be bought out by the Houston Rockets.

"This was a long process and Carmelo is relieved that it is over and he's thrilled to be joining the Knicks," Anthony's agent, Leon Rose, said in a statement. "He and I appreciate how the Denver Nuggets and the fans have treated him over the years and Carmelo wishes nothing but the best for the franchise, the fans and the city."

Now Anthony is home and his new team will look vastly different Wednesday against the Bucks. The Garden will be alive and the cheers will be loud when Anthony is introduced.

Walsh will be in his usual seat, not far from the Knick bench. But probably not for long.

The highly anticipated 2011 XXL Freshman cover has leaked a month early.

Is there anything that isn't jacked before it's due date anymore? Not that I'm complaining all that loudly, because I wanted to see for sure if Cam'ron would stick true to his word and not Vado pass over XXL for The Source, which he did.

Plus it's always fun to speculate who will be the 1st to blow big from the list.

So the list is Clockwise from left: Diggy Simmons, Kendrick Lamar, Meek Mill, Big K.R.I.T., CyHi Da Prynce, Lil Twist, Yelawolf, Fred The Godson, Mac Miller, YG and Lil B.

What do you think? Anyone make the list that surprised you? And I wonder who snuck in the back door because of Vado's absence.

A Worcester, Massachusetts bouncer is in all kinds of trouble today, after a video went viral showing him beating up and robbing a patron at the strip club where he works.

This incident actually happened in May 2010, but just came to light after the video surfaced recently.

35-year-old Easton Byfield suspected a 25-year old unidentified man of selling drugs to dancers at the Platinum Premier Gentelman's club.

For several minutes Byfield questions the man in a bathroom while searching his person, cell phone and wallet, looking for evidence while another bouncer filmed.

Then out of nowhere he punches the guy in the face. When the man tries to leave Byfield blocks his path, then locks the door. He then punches him several more times in the face.

The most bizarre part of the assault happens next when Byfield makes the man get on his knees and kneel to him while saying, "oh great f*cking brown dude."

After taking his money, Byfield lets the victim leave.

Fearing retaliation, the victim didn't report the incident to police, but once the video went viral police found him, and eventually tracked down Byfield.

Perhaps fearing the victim would go to police, Byfield had already made a police report May 25 stating the victim had assaulted him.

He's now been arrested and charged him with assault and battery, kidnapping, unarmed robbery and filing a false police report.
