Wiz Khalifa teams with West Coast rap pioneer Too $hort for his latest banger.
This slow tempo'd track puts you in the mindset of sparking one up. And further illustrates why Wiz leads the new school of rappers when it comes to the "weed raps" made famous by Cypress Hill and Snoop Dogg.
This track can be found on Wiz's upcoming album 'Rolling Papers' which drops March 29.

After watching this and laughing my ass off a couple of times, I was thinking of how I would react if somebody pulled this prank on me.
Basically these dudes go around pranking unsupecting store clerks or what have you, by randomly locking their face up as ugly as possible. The girl in the video isn't quite sure what to think. She looks like she's embarrassed.
What would you do if this happened to you?
Over the years Sean "Puffy" Combs has seen his share of beefs and crazy situations.
There was the time he popped Steve Stoute over the head with a champagne bottle for leaving a scene with Nas being crucified in their 1999 video "Hate Me Now" Then there was the 2005 Hot 97 shouting match with The Lox, where Jadakiss and Styles P were calling Puffy every name in the book, demanding their publishing. Of course last June's bizarre interview with Martin Bashir has to be mentioned, if only for the fact of how confused Diddy looked the entire interview while Bashir "mindf*cked" him.
All of that pales in comparison to the lawsuit that was just filed against the Bad Boy CEO that accuses him of rape, being a deadbeat dad and bringing down the World Trade Center.
Valerie Joyce Wilson Turks, who is obviously off her recommended dose of meds filed the lawsuit seeking $1.9 billion dollars from Combs reports Radar Online.
The lawsuit also names Diddy's girlfriend, Kim Porter and L.A. police beating victim Rodney King.
"[Diddy] went through Kim Porter and Rodney King and knocked down the WTC and then they all came and knocked my children down. Set me up to be on disability and disabled my baby. he put my baby in a wheelchair." Turks alleges in the suit.
She claims Diddy fathered her 23-year old son, Cornelius Wilson.
"He date raped me 24 years ago and knocked me down him and Kim Porter and Wallace Wright, then Sean Combs and Kim and Wallace Wright came back 18 years later and raped and sexually abused my children and knocked my children down and crushed me and my children daily.
Plus I won a lot of money at the casino in Mississippi and Sean P. Diddy Combs has my chip to my money. I heard he gave it to Gwen Allen to hold but she can not cash it in. I want my chip please help me. it's well worth over 100 zillions of dollars, and my hospital keys. They put me and my baby in the hospital and broke my baby 2 legs and sexual assaulted my children and crushed us." Turks wrote.

She wants $900 billion dollars in child support, and $100 billion dollars for “loss of income.”
This isn't the 1st time a crazy woman has bothered Combs. Last year a Florida woman, Cemilia Green was arrested after trying to break into his Hamptons crib. When caught by police Green said she was Diddy's wife.

Looks like Diddy might want to up his security detail.
In a fairly short amount of time Toronto native Drake has become a very respected rapper/singer, but is the world ready for Drizzy the Reggae artist?
The Young Money rapper might be dropping some tunes over Jamaican influenced sounds very soon.
In an interview with MuchMusic Drake revealed his plans.
"I wanna do something for Jamaica, because we are supposed to go out there and record after the European tour. I was like send me some rhythms that are poppin and I'll see what I can do. He sent me some rhythms that are poppin, so I'll see what I can do. You never know." he said.
Drake is currently touring Europe with Roc Nation artist J. Cole. He was intially scheduled to tour the UK last summer but cancelled due to his mother falling ill. Once the tour wraps he'll head to Jamaica to record.
In addition to a possible Reggae cd, Drizzy is working on a follow up to his platinum debut disc 'Thank Me Later.'
Do you think Drake can pull off a successful reggae disc?

Super Bowl XLV offers an opportunity for a couple of first time events. Pittsburgh coach Mike Tomlin could become the youngest coach to win two Super Bowls at the age of 37.
It will also be the first ever Super Bowl without cheerleaders according to Yahoo.
The Steelers and Green Bay Packers are 2 of only 6 teams that don't have those sexy women with pom poms cheering their teams on and helping to hype the crowd.
The other teams without cheerleaders are are the Cleveland Browns, the Chicago Bears , the Detroit Lions, and the New York Giants.
That the game is being played in Dallas, where the Cowboys have made cheerleading high profile for years, makes the situation seem even more odd.
The Packers were one of the first pro football teams to use cheerleaders, starting in 1931. But in 1988, the team disbanded its professional cheering squad. The Pack have used the cheerleading squad from the University of Wisconsin at-Green Bay for the last 21 years at home games and Super Bowls 31 and 32, but opted not to have them appear at this years's Super Bowl.
"We thank the Packers for wanting a collegiate atmosphere at their games and real CHEERleaders (not dancers). The UW-Green Bay cheer squad also travelled to Super Bowl 31 and 32 and were on the field cheering our team on! It is unfortunate that we are not being included this year, but we are grateful for all the opportunities we have cheering for every home game at Lambeau. Go Pack!" UW-GB cheer coach Ann Rodrian wrote to Dallas News.
I think NFL fans want to see the "dancers" Ann, but that doesn't look like it's going to happen at Super Bowl XLV.

Multimedia mogul Russell Simmons stopped by Shade 45 Saturday (January 22) to drop some knowledge about a wide variety of topics. And to promote his new book 'Super Rich: A Guide To Having It All.' A self help book about "the principles that promote happiness and attract riches.".
When you're as wealthy and successful as Russell is, there aren't many people whose opinions can affect your bottom line. Unless it's someone like Oprah Winfrey, who didn't plug Russell's new book on her show because she's reportedly angry with it's bad language.
"But all the work I do for humanity, for the animals, for the planet, for civil rights, for the hood and all that. I would think they would let my personal life not have nothing to do with my message," Russel said. "She didn't say that, but her best friend Gayle [King] did."
Russell goes on to talk about being a vegan, his harem of women, the inhumane treatment of farm animals and Amber Rose's ass.
Rose made an appearance on Russ's show 'Running Russell Simmons', and of course Whoo Kid had to know if he touched her ass while she was there.
"That's a lot of ass ... I'm scared of that much, you know I like thin girls," Russell said. "I love her to death, but we never even went down that.. discussion."

From the dudes that brought you "Head of the State" comes a new video.
This time they are spoofing perhaps rap's biggest icons in Tupac Shakur and his "Hit Em Up" video that famously dissed Notorious B.I.G.
Once again President Barack Obama as played by actor/comedian James Davis, is seen rapping, dancing and acting "hood" while dissing the Tea Party, Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly and Dick Cheney.
In this spoof as funny as "Head of the State"? Or needs more work?

For someone who has been getting lots of press over the last couple of years, Nicki Minaj hasn't really revealed a lot about her personal life.
Of course we've known that the 26-year old was born in Trinidad and Tobago, moved to the U.S. at age 5 and had a father who was an abusive drinker. But in a new interview with the UK Sun the Young Money rapper really opens up about what life was like for her, her brother and mother living with a man as abusive as her dad and how that affected her.
"All of my young and teenage early years we lived in fear that my mother would be killed by my father. It was ridiculous. It made me act out to guys and be evil to them when I was growing up," Nicki said. "It made me tough. Of course it did. I am an emotional person, but I am a tough person. It was very tough emotionally for me to have a parent who was an alcoholic and a drug addict. I had a mom with no money."
Living in that environment has shaped Nicki into the woman she is today. Wildly successful and strong, yet slightly vulnerable at the same time.
"We didn't really have many options. When you don't have options you feel helpless. And I think that is the worst feeling. My father was violent - physically and verbally. Once my older brother grew up he became the man of the house and started standing up to my father. That was the only time we had peace in my home, when we knew there was another male figure in the house and he could protect us," Nicki explains. "I will cry about something but I never let anything stop me. I can't be like my mom. I know I can cut ties and still make it. She didn't cut ties when I felt like she should have done. That's been my whole thing. I've been able to say, 'This isn't working any more. You need to get out of my life'. I keep it moving and it has worked."
It definitely has worked out fine

Mazar-e-Sharif, Afghanistan (CNN) -- In a far flung corner of northern Afghanistan, Aziza reaches into the dark wooden cupboard, rummages around, and pulls out a small lump of something wrapped in plastic.
She unwraps it, breaking off a small chunk as if it were chocolate, and feeds it to four-year-old son, Omaidullah. It's his breakfast -- a lump of pure opium.
"If I don't give him opium he doesn't sleep," she says. "And he doesn't let me work."
Aziza comes from a poor family of carpet weavers in Balkh province. She has no education, no idea of the health risks involved or that opium is addictive.
"We give the children opium whenever they get sick as well," she says, crouching over her loom.
With no real medical care in these parts and the high cost of medicine, all the families out here know is opium.
It's a cycle of addiction passed on through generations.
The adults take opium to work longer hours and ease their pain.
Aziza's elderly mother-in-law, Rozigul, rolls a small ball in her fingers and pops it into her mouth with a small smile before passing a piece over to her sister.
"I had to work and raise the children, so I started using drugs," she says. "We are very poor people, so I used opium. We don't have anything to eat. That is why we have to work and use drugs to keep our kids quiet."
The entire extended family is addicted.
This part of Afghanistan is famous for its carpets. It's so remote there are no real roads. The dirt ones that exist are often blocked by landslides.
The closest government-run drug rehabilitation center is a four-hour drive away. But it has just 20 beds and a handful of staff to deal with the epidemic.
"Opium is nothing new to our villages or districts. It's an old tradition, something of a religion in some areas," said Dr. Mohamed Daoud Rated, coordinator of the center.
"People use opium as drugs or medicine. If a child cries, they give him opium, if they can't sleep, they use opium, if an infant coughs, they give them opium."
The center is running an outreach program to the areas that are most afflicted.
Most Afghans aren't aware of the health risks of opium and only a few are beginning to understand the hazards of addiction.
"I was a child when I started using drugs" 35-year-old Nagibe says.
She says her sister-in-law first gave her some when she was a young teenage bride, just 14 years old. Her children grew up addicts as well.
When her husband died, she remarried.
She said: "My new husband doesn't use drugs, nor does his family. Because of that I was able to come here and get treatment. Now as an adult I understand and I want to leave this all behind."
She has been clean for four months, but every day is a struggle.
Carpet weaver Rozigul, 30, is in the detox program with her three-year-old son Babagildi, his pudgy face covered in blemishes. She started using six years ago.
"When I was pregnant with this baby I was using drugs. So he was born addicted and was always crying. I would try to keep him quiet and make him sleep, so I just kept feeding him opium," she says.
Her addicted mother-in-law shares the bed next to her, curled up in a ball and mumbling to herself.
Three generations from one family, all struggling with a curse that afflicts well over one million Afghans.
