While visiting Angie Martinez’s radio show Rick Ross talked about the Drake/Meek Mill beef and of course he would not admit that Drake destroyed Meek Mill for obvious reasons. But he compared their beef to his beef with 50 Cent and pretty much says even the loser can succeed in the end. This leads to them talking about how 50 Cent is doing right now and how Ross does not believe his filing for bankruptcy was a business maneuver at all. “You think Jay Z woulda filed bankruptcy? You think Puff woulda filed bankruptcy?” he asked. “Bankruptcy, that’s when it’s everything you ever worked for. That’s your name, that’s your brand, you walking away from him. I’m not gon’ speak on another man’s pockets, that’s not my job, but everything a man worked for..All you got as a man is your name. Get Rich or Die Tryin’ and now you bankrupt. You could come back here tomorrow and explain it and say ‘I’m doing this, I’m doing that.’ Stop, stop, there’s holes in your roof, fam.” Obviously this beef is not done yet and who knows if it ever will be but what is known is that 50 Cent is more then likely to respond to this so keep it right here for updates.

“Don’t claim something you not @losangelesconfidential #tmigang,” he says in the caption for the video. “Trust me boy I got goons in every city . Real n*ggas fuck wit me the long way.”

The Game later responded to Stitches saying that the Direct Messages on Instagram are fake:

“Number one, I ain’t sent your faggot-ass no motherfucking DM. Number two, any nigga name that rhymes with ‘bitches’ ain’t nobody fucking with you. You lame. Your music wack and I will put hands on you, nigga. I ain’t sent you no message. You a f*cking fan, n*gga.”

Diddy and Bad Boy have signed onto a Epic which is a major label and is said to be doing distribution for at least two more albums from Diddy himself. The only semi-big artist Bad Boy has on the label these days are the likes of French Montana and Machine Gun Kelly and now Bow Wow but none of those names are top notch artist right now so this move makes sense. Diddy released this statement about the move , “I have known L.A. Reid since the very beginning and together we have enjoyed countless successes over our long friendship. To now work with L.A. in this capacity feels more like a homecoming than a new beginning. Not only is he a fearless and smart businessman, he believes in artists and understands music better than anyone. He embodies hard work and true success, evident in all of his endeavors.  To collaborate with L.A. Reid is to collaborate with the very best.” Diddy will celebrate this during the 2015 BET Hip-Hop Awards which will be in Atlanta on October 13^th.

N.O.R.E. was caught by TMZ and they asked him about the whole Kanye West 2020 thing and he actually said he would be Kanye West’s biggest supporter. N.O.R.E. can’t vote for him though because he is actually a felon “I can’t vote, I’m a felon, but I’m gonna make everybody that I know vote for [him], that can vote,” N.O.R.E. said. It is great that Kanye is getting support from other artist but he will have to win over a lot more people before he ever gets a real shot at the White House.
