Tony Yayo recently tweeted that he has a new collaboration with Mobb Deep recorded. In this new in studio video we get to see the two Queens rappers vibing.
While we don't get to see the actual recording process of the new joint, we do peep Prodigy working out and Yayo listening to songs P recently recorded.
The Talk of New York is hard at work on his next project 'El Chapo', it's likely we will hear the Mobb Deep collabo on there.

With the release of his brand new album 'Vigilante Season', and his appeals process moving along nicely, Max B has reason to see a possible bright future despite his present surroundings.
Max is currently serving a 75 year sentence for manslaughter, aggravated assault, robbery, kidnapping, possession of a weapon and conspiracy. The September 2009 sentencing temporarily stopped the big wave Max was riding, but we could see him back up on his surfboard as soon as this summer.
"The appeal process is done finally, been done for about a month now," Max told Mikey T The Movie Star in a brand new interview. "What they do is the prosecutor responds back and you get a letter, they tell you, you gotta wait 8-10 months for a response from the appellate court to get a decision, but they come back way before that," Max explained. "So you might see me [out by] summer [or] by the end of the year."
That would be a great look for Max, if he's out by the end of the year.
A lot of people use a relatives, friends or even work addresses to send their kinds to schools in districts they are not zoned to. Most didn't know they could get arrested for it, face a long stretch in the pen and owe $15,000if caught.
The 15K is what it supposedly costs to school a child for a year.
That's what Tanya McDowell of Norwalk,Connecticut is dealing with today. To make matters worse she is homeless. Sometimes crashing at homeless shelters, her car or a friends couch. McDowell thought at least she had her son in a good school.
"I had no idea whatsoever that if you enroll your child in another school district, it becomes a crime," McDowell, 33 told the Stamford Advocate.
McDowell was charged last week with first-degree larceny and conspiracy to commit first-degree larceny for allegedly stealing $15,686 from Norwalk schools. She was released after posting a $25,000 bond.
The babysitter whose address was used to get McDowell's son into the new school was evicted from her Public Housing home.
"I know so many people who enroll in other school districts where the kids go home on the weekend to visit their parents so they can have a better education," McDowell says.
Norwalk Board of Education Vice Chairman, Glenn Iannaccone can't remember anyome ever being arrested for this.
"This is the first time I have heard something like this where there has been an arrest. Other allegations like this have been handled by the central office. I'm not sure if the police have been involved," Iannaccone told the CT Post. "Maybe this is the district's way of cracking down on this."
What do you guys think about this case? What would you do to get your kid into a better school and should this be a crime?
VH1 promises the world will get to see a "very different side of 50 Cent" next month when they air the special 'Origins of Me.'

The special will air on VH1 May, 23 at 9pm eastern.
Six people are in jail today in Marion County, Florida after being arrested for participating in the brutal murder of a 15-year old boy.
Charlie Ely, 18; Amber E. Wright, 15; Michael Bargo, 18; Justin Soto, 20; and Kyle Hooper, 16, face first-degree murder charges.
And James Haven, 37, faces charges of accessory to the crime for helping dispose of the body and helping one of the suspects flee the area.
Seath Jackson
Authorities say Seath Jackson was lured to a house by Wright after being texted repeatedly. Once inside the home Jackson was attacked by Bargo, who masterminded the plot and Soto.
Jackson was beaten with a wooden stick, shot several times with a .22 caliber pistol, then put in a bathtub so his knees could be easily broken while his body was dismembered.
When the suspects realized Jackson wasn't dead he was shot again, then placed in a pit and burned. His ashes were placed into several paint containers and thrown into a large garbage can.
Authorities found out about the details of the killing after Hooper confessed to his mother he had seen the attack.
"It feels amazing. It’s great to be part of the family. It feels like home already. George made a very wise decision because I am ready for them to take me to another level!"
It's rare to see two established Hollywood types argue in public. That's why it's so odd to see what's going on between filmmakers Tyler Perry and Spike Lee.
The two have been going at it ever since Lee labeled Perry's Madea movies as "coonery" a year ago
Perry ripped into Lee during a press stop in Beverly Hills, California.
"I'm so sick of hearing about damn Spike Lee," Perry said. "Spike can go straight to hell! You can print that. I am sick of him talking about me, I am sick of him saying, ‘this is a coon, this is a buffoon.' I am sick of him talking about black people going to see movies. This is what he said: ‘you vote by what you see,' as if black people don't know what they want to see."
"I am sick of him - he talked about Whoopi, he talked about Oprah, he talked about me, he talked about Clint Eastwood. Spike needs to shut the hell up!"
Perry sees a bigger problem with the criticism from Lee, he feels it's indicative of how African Americans treat each other in general.
"I've never seen Jewish people attack Seinfeld and say "this is a stereotype," I've never seen Italian people attack The Sopranos, I've never seen Jewish people complaining about Mrs. Doubtfire or Dustin Hoffman in Tootsie," Perry said. "And I'm sick of it from us; we don't have to worry about anybody else trying to destroy us and take shots because we do it to ourselves."
Yesterday (April 19) was National Hiring Day for McDonald's. The goal was to hire 50,000 people in a day.
Sounds like a great thing right? It would have been if not for a couple of hood heathens fighting Cleveland, Ohio. The end result was one of the participants of the fight, got in her car and backed over several people.
"I was filling out my application when I saw two girls fighting," Joseph Shores told Fox 8. "I don't know their names, but they were fighting over drama, hood stuff."
Police say the fight started between two girls over a boy, but then spilled over into the crowd of people waiting to hand in job applications.
"One girl was on top of the driver, beating her. Then the driver went forward, somehow it kicked into reverse, and the car went backwards, hitting three people. It was crazy!" said Arnecia Patterson.
The four people that were hit by the car were taken to the hospital. None with life threatening injuries. Police caught the passenger in the car and charged her with felonious assault. They are still searching for the driver.
SMFH... Micky D's giving away jobs and people can't leave that hood ish at the crib for a couple of hours.
Last week there was a rumor floating around that DJ Pauly D of the reality tv show Jersey Shore had signed with 50 Cent'sG-Unit Records.
Yesterday (April 19) on Shade 45, DJ Whoo Kid said it's a done deal, with Pauly signing to 50's G-Note Records.
"I'm not a real dj, I guess you guys don't know that so maybe that's why they're signing a dj to the team," Whoo Kid said jokingly. "He has new records that he wants to showcase and since 50 is doing a lot with [rapper] Hot Rod, he wants to broaden the horizon."
Diddy may have some explaining to do if there turns out to be any merit to a lawsuit recently filed against him.
Jabari Tilgham claims he was beaten up while working as a photographer at a BET Hip Hop Awards afterparty hosted by Combs at Club Mansion in Atlanta, Georgia, according to a lawsuit filed in DeKalb County State Court on Friday (April 15).
Tilgham claims he was one of 12 photographers taking pictures of celebrities when he was singled out and attacked by Diddy's bodyguards.
Tilgham's attorney Jeffrey Gewirtz says the October 10, 2010 attack was completely unprovoked. One of the security guards working for the club that night backs up Tilgham's story in a signed affidavit.
The suit names Diddy, Club Mansion management and four bodyguards as defendants.
Dr Dre just won a huge lawsuit against the current owners of Death Row Records, WIDEawake Entertainment.
Yesterday (April 19), U.S. District Judge Christina Snyder ruled that Death Row doesn't have the rights to sell the classic album 'The Chronic' online.
Dr Dre will now receive 100% of all online sales, while Death Row can only sell the album in CD, cassette, 8-track and vinyl sales as stipulated by Dre's original contract with Suge Knight and the old Death Row.
"For years, Death Row Records forgot about Dre when they continued to distribute his music digitally and combined his hits with weaker Death Row tracks in an attempt to elevate the stature of their other artists," Dre's attorney Howard King told the Associated Press. "We are gratified that the federal court has unambiguously declared that Death Row has no right to engage in such tactics, and must hold all proceeds from these illicit distributions in trust for our client."
Rapper Guru passed away one year ago today after battling cancer.
Fans will forever remember Guru for his slick wordplay and monotone voice.
He and Gang Starr partner DJ Premier made so many sick joints it's impossible to name all of the gems. But if you're new to the "chain and the star" you have to check out joints like "Rite Where U Stand" ft Jadakiss, "Mass Appeal" and "Take It Personal."

Fellow XXL Freshmen, Lil B and Freddie Gibbs aren't seeing eye to eye on Lil B's next artistic endeavor.
As we reported over the weekend, Lil B told the crowd at Coachella he was naming his next album 'I'm Gay.' Since then reaction from other rappers and the media has been swift and sometimes harsh.
“[The] Lil B sh*t was funny at first but now I feel like it’s just a bunch of white people laughing at a nigga, like a minstrel show. Sh*t is wack. I ain’t dissin’ gays, if you gay that’s yo biz," Freddie Gibbs told XXL.
The Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) is monitoring the situation to make sure Lil B isn't just using the opportunity for publicity.
“As a lyricist, Lil B knows that words matter,” a spokesperson for GLAAD told XXL. “Slurs have the power to fuel intolerance. We hope that Lil B’s album title is not just a gimmick, and is really a sincere attempt to be an ally. He has the platform and the voice. We hope he uses it in a positive way."
Rapper Killer Mike can kind of see where Lil B is coming from, but only to an extent.
“He’s a happy guy, Gay means happy. It makes perfect sense to me. It’s a provocative, bold thing to me. That’s what B does," Killer said. It’s not as shocking to me. From a social element . . . this just feels like knocking down walls and stereotypes, embracing controversy and flipping it. Bravo to him for being the next Madonna. I also don’t think Lil B could ever make some of the music that I make. If he’s rapping about (gay) lifestyle the whole album, no I probably wouldn’t want to hear it. If he’s rapping on some hip-hop shit and it’s a weird ass, weird Lil B album . . . I’d probably buy it like i I did his last (album) and have a little laugh."
Peggy Scott Adams married into a family business that is quite different from most. Her funeral home in Compton, California that gives a person's family, friends and even sometimes complete strangers a chance to view their bodies quickly, without even having to get out of their car.
The Adams Mortuary was reportedly inspired by a couple of funeral homes in the south that offer the same drive thru service.
"It's a unique feature that sets us aside from other funeral parlors," Scott Adams told the L.A. Times. "You can come by after work, you don't need to deal with parking, you can sign the book outside and the family knows that you paid your respects - It's a convenience thing."
The funeral home is popular among gang members because of it's easy accessibility and bullet proof glass casing.
"It's a ministry for me to be able to help people at one of the most traumatic times of their life," Scott Adams says.
Would you be ok with a deceased loved one being viewed in this way?
