Got Beef?: Irv Gotti vs. Lloyd

MTV RapFix Live has got to be the most explosive show in Hip Hop right now.  I don't know if it's the atmosphere, Sway's amazing interviewing skills, free liquor, or what, but something seems to pop off every week! It never fails!

On last week's episode, Sway held a very in depth chat with Irv Gotti about his regrets in the music business, his desire to be Def Jam President, and his former Murder Inc. artist, Lloyd.  The latter subject  definitely struck a nerve with him because he went OFF about how he feels Lloyd completely disrespected him once he left the record label.

He even went as far to question Lloyd's sexuality and say that if he got hit by a car, he wouldn't think twice about it. Watch the full interview below:

J.A.E - XO [Prod. by 78 West]

You may remember J.A.E from my footage of his bonus performance during the A3C's freestyle cypher.  It was clear to me after only one song that he's got something special, and he will probably have his own set at the festival this time next year.  Don't just take my word for it.  Listen to his latest track "XO" and make sure you check back in on November 15 when his latest project, Just My Time, hits the net!

New Music Video: Coldplay - Paradise

This video is giving me life this morning.  Coldplay definitely knows how to stage a comeback, and from the sounds of it, Mylo Xiloto is going to be incredible when it drops on 10.24.  Watch the video to their second single, "Paradise," below and see the heartfelt story of an elephant who escapes the zoo to explore the world and reunite with his brothers!


See? There is money in the mascot industry. I'm gettin' back in the game...

Thank You Youtube For... Gang of Roses: Next Generation

Why Lord, why???

I'm all for female empowerment, and I'll admit that I like Teyana Taylor, Amber Rose, and Rocsi (the latter 2 in some capacity within a tiny corner of my soul), but filming this movie Gang of Roses: Next Generation was in no way shape or form a good look for any of them.    I've seen a probably a total of 2 minutes of this film, and I'm definitely going to put myself through pain of watching Gang of Roses: Next Generation in its entirety.  Watch the clips below and join with me:

Rocsi from 106&Park


Teyana, No...
