A stripper, Jhonni Blaze reportedly called the police on Drake and his crew. According to TMZ, Drake and Blaze had been arguing. Blaze then reported that Drake sent his boys to her house to threaten her and ensure that Blaze wouldn’t tell the media about their recent hook up. Jhonni Blaze later explained the situation publically on a morning show; her statement was much different from what was reported.

"I don’t have anything to say about Drake, I still think he’s a phenomenal artist, the reason why we fell out is because we got into an argument. Nothing wrong with that… I never called the police on Aubrey."

“My friend came home and she said that two guys were looking for me. So I documented that and said that for my protection.”

Rapper, 50 Cent explains how he would have built G-Unit differently if he had the chance.

“I wouldn't have built something that required me as their center. I would've built it so it functions on its own. When you look at it, they've sold millions of records on their own. If they weren't so strongly associated, they'd probably have crews under them. They didn't really have an interest in doing that because they had a strong association and had so much fun in the position they were in at that point.”

Khalifa tells sources who he thinks have been “killin’ it” lately and how he stays up to date with new music:  “Curren$y is killing it, Big Sean is back on his sh*t, I’ve been talking to him, going to his house in L.A., just like, rubbing his shoulders and getting him ready. I’m really excited about music and as a fan, being on the Internet and all of the new talent as well as those who have been doing it, reinventing themselves; it’s a good time for all of that. I find out about new music just creeping the Internet, for real, for real,” Wiz added. “[I’m] just like any other kid, f*cking lurking. Just keep supporting the music. Get tickets to as many shows as possible. Check out the visuals – we’re doing really dope videos – all my pictures are very inspirational, so you can check those out too.” (The Source)

Everyone has known for a long time that Lupe is of the Muslim faith and if they didn’t they do now after he took to twitter for a Q&A.

When talking with Rolling Stone Malik Yusef of G.O.O.D. Music spoke about Kanyes follow up to Yeezus. “This album is different. It’s like a pair of Timberlands; like how Timberlands are not quite leather and not quite suede. It’s not the smooth, slick Chicago music sound we have right now and it’s not the ruggedness of just ‘hip-hop hip-hop hip-hop.’ We’re still working like a motherfucker. We’ve been all around the world [recording].” Malik said. Hopefully we get a single soon that will keep the fans satisfied until the album drops.

While on air at Power 105.1, Charlamagne publically criticized Nicki Minaj’s “Anaconda”, claiming it to be a corny song. Once Nicki found out, she immediately unfollowed Charlamagne on Twitter, making it clear that his criticism affected her.

“Me and Nicki Minaj, I got love mad love for Nicki Minaj even though she ain’t fucking with me right now, she unfollowed me on Twitter. She’s made calls to people in radio, people that I work for, and said she’s never coming on the Breakfast Club again,” Charlamagne says.

“I know she got upset when I said I thought ‘Anaconda’ was corny,” Charlamagne added. “But my exact synopsis on ‘Anaconda’ when it first came out was, ‘I’m not really feeling this record. It’s not for me. It’s for girls, it’s for kids, it’s for people who like to shake their ass.’ I said when the video comes out, I will probably appreciate this song more. But I said, ‘This song is going to work, I just think its corny.’ That’s what I said…”

“I don’t like that thing, that, ‘New York is back thing,’” Erick Sermon said “Everybody say, ‘I’m bringing New York back.’ I don’t like that. New York never went nowhere. You have underground people, people are making Hip Hop…They all over the place but it just ain’t mainstream and dope enough to go on radio ‘cause of how radio is. They never did that. There’s no bringing New York back. You gotta do what you have to do.” New York still comes out with some amazing artist these days from A$AP Rocky to Joey Bada$$ which are some highly influential young artist.

During a talk with Life + Times about his new film “Jimi: All Is By My Side,” some music related questions were given to Andre 3000. “As far as an OutKast album, we don’t have any plans to do one. After this tour though, I’ve been thinking about recording this album that I always wanted to record. We’re both working on solo albums. Big Boi is damn near through with his next album. I think after we finish this last show on October 31^st in New Orleans. I’d love to get in the studio and see if I can conjure up something.”

Come on, you’re on a record with Beyoncé. If I have a record with Beyoncé, I’m not saying nothing remotely to even let this chick think what I’m talking about. We all know what it is. It’s so deep that when I finish putting together this documentary, people will understand” (The Breakfast Club).
