Weezy’s Free
Well, yesterday it was Wayne’s World as he was finally released from Riker’s Island after serving 8 months. It was a pretty low-key release and his first public appearance is supposedly going to happen this weekend in Las Vegas with Drake and Sunday, Young Money is throwing a welcome home party in Miami. Log onto Facebook.com/power98fm to see a picture of Wayne right after he was released.

Bow Wow Gets Good Advice From Lil Wayne


Cash Money Books??

The first book will be “Raw Law: An Urban Guide To Criminal Justice,” which is due out in February.

Drake And J. Cole: The Revenge of The Light-Skinned Brothas

Nicki Minaj Clears Up Beef
Another YM member, Nicki Minaj, is clearing up the speculation surrounding her song “Roman’s Revenge” and whether it was a diss to Lil Kim. She says it wasn’t a diss, but in saying it, she kinda disses Kim even more. She said, “I don’t ever single anyone out because no one is worth being singled out!” Sounds like the claws are out to me! Here’s Nicki talking about how she’s tired of playing nice:

Mario said, “I’m glad to be finally vindicated. I want to thank everyone who believed in me. I will continue to love and support my mother.”

The Dirty Laundry




Drake’s Body Guard Allegedly Goes Chuck Norris


Drake lost two fans in Jacksonville, Florida last week after he allegedly pushed a female fan and his body guard allegedly went all Chuck Norris on a male fan! The guy and his friends were allegedly heckling or praising Drake (depends on who tells the story), when he got knocked out! He ended up with 6 stitches in his mouth and is planning on pressing charges and of course he’s going to sue! Cha-ching!

Paul Wall Scuffles With A Fan

(Paul Wall "I'm On Patron")


Paul Wall must have been drinking the same crunk juice as Drake’s bodyguard, because Sunday, during his performance at a car show, he allegedly got into it with a fan who gave him the middle finger! The two exchanged words and then Paul allegedly swung at the fan with his microphone several times. Must be something in the water!

Luda Wants His Girlfriend To Dump School


Ludacris wants the kids to stay in school, but apparently not his own girlfriend! MediaTakeOut is reporting that Luda asked his girl friend to drop out of med school! Supposedly he asked her to put her studies to be a doctor on hold so she can go out on the road with him! When will these girls learn…

Chris Brown Is Pissed

(12 Strands: Matrix" Trailer...Log onto MechanicalDummy.com to purchase full version)

The Dirty Laundry




Wyclef Hospitalized

(Throwback Fugees "Ready Or Not")


After the stress and strain of running for President of Haiti and working on a new album, Wyclef was hospitalized in New Jersey due to stress and fatigue. A source close to him said he’s been suffering from horrible headaches for weeks. He has been released from the hospital though and asked for his supporters to bear with him while he recovers!

Will Pressure Make TI Pop?


Speaking of stress, TI has apparently been under pressure from his record label, Atlantic Records, to make crossover, pop records. Pharrell told MTV, “"He's got songs out there right now that are singles, but, you know, there are pressures in the world, certain things you can't necessarily control. But his body of work ... he's got a crazy album. I saw, like, 60 records, and almost every record that he played me was really incredible. Then there was the more poppier side of things, where the label kinda puts the gun to your head 'cause they gotta pay their bills...Please trust, T.I.'s album is incredible, and he's an amazing talent, and it's been a while since we got together..."

Drake’s Tour Almost Sold Out
Great news for Drake! Only one week into his Light Dreams & Nightmares tour, and it’s already 80% sold out! He’s already sold out New York's Radio City Music Hall (where he performs tonight and tomorrow), the Fox Theatre in Atlanta (Oct. 6) and the Chicago Theatre (Oct. 13-14).

Lil Wayne Is Larger Than Life


Well Def Jam is hoping Lil Wayne can help sell copies of its new video game, Def Jam Rapstar. Starting October 5th, you’ll see Lil Wayne in handcuffs on billboards around the country! Weezy’s song “A Milli” is featured on the game.

Kanye West Goes Def


Rapper/Actor Mos Def has signed a record deal with Kanye’s G.O.O.D. Music record label, joining Common, John legend and Kid Cudi. And Kid Cudi, by the way, was sentenced to two days of community service after getting caught with liquid cocaine!

The Dirty Dirty




Petey Pablo Explains Gun Situation


You knew it was coming…Petey Pablo finally tells the story of why he was carrying a stolen Smith & Wesson handgun in his carry-on bag. He was arrested in the Raleigh-Durham airport and here’s what he said happened: Last month sometime he took the gun from a friend who was going to "do something crazy." He then hid the gun in his luggage, so the friend wouldn’t find it. Then he was asked to take a last minute flight, so he grabbed the bag without thinking and you know the rest of the story! He’s due in court on October 4th, so we’ll soon see if the judge buys that story! Do you?

Is Trina A Homewrecker?



MediaTakeOut is reporting that the rapper Trina is the latest on what seems to be a long list of celebrity homewreckers. Word is that her man, NFL player Dez Bryant, had a longtime girlfriend when he and Trina hooked up. And his girlfriend just had their first child! Damn, what’s going on with these celebrity chicks stealing ery’body else’s men!?!

Are Solange And J. Cole Making Music Together?


Speaking of couples, Solange Knowles, Bey Bey’s little sis, might be hooking up with my make-believe boyfriend and light-skinned boo, J. Cole! MediaTakeOut posted some pictures of them talking from an event Solange was dj-ing. They definitely look like they could be flirting in the pictures, but I’m going to give them both a pass this time and say that they were just talking! >:/

Money Mayweather Is Engaged
One couple that supposedly is official is Floyd Mayweather and his fiancé, a model from Las Vegas. Word is that they got engaged last week. And the story goes that his baby’s mother found out about the engagement on the same night she called the police and accused Mayweather of beating her up! Oh the drama!

Fantasia Airs The Dirty Laundry


Speaking of drama, Fantasia will air out all of her dirty laundry on the second season of her show, Fantasia For Real, which premieres on VH1 on September 19th.

The Dirty Laundry for August 26, 2010

The Dirty Laundry




Cocaine, Kat Stacks & Soulja Boy
After the video of Soulja Boy in the room with Kat Stacks and lines of cocaine broke, SB took to Twitter to deny it. He initially Tweeted, "God knows I didn't do that. that's all that matters, you are nothing but humans. pow". But later, he responded to a fan who asked him not to talk to Kat again, with this Tweet, “yes baby I promise to never do that again I'm so sorry, I'm a dummy dummy for that one.” Sounds like a confession to me!

Did Timbaland Attempt Suicide?
First Fantasia…now Timbaland? Well that’s what TMZ was reporting yesterday. Here’s the short version: Supposedly Timbo was upset about someone close to him stealing a $2 million dollar watch from him, so he left the house to clear his head. After he was gone for a while, his mother-in-law called 911 to report him missing and told police that he was “tired of the stress” and was near a cliff. Timbaland, though, says it’s not true.

Was Kimora Forced Out?
Speaking of leaving, I told you earlier this week that Kimora Simmons was leaving Baby Phat, and mama made it sound like she decided to leave on her own. Well that may not be the case! Rumor has it that she was forced out because she was paying herself and her daughters too much money for modeling in Baby Phat’s ads. And that she spent a ton of money on airbrushing and paying body doubles (who would really model the clothes, then Kimora’s face would be stuck on their body). Ouch, that’s gotta hurt her ego!



Ne-Yo’s Got A Little Less Of The Champaign Life
Kimora’s not the only one hurting right now. Ne-Yo’s pockets just got hit for $150,000. He had been sued for $1.5 million by a promoter for breach of contract and the judge ruled in the promoter’s favor!

Montana Fishburne Pleads Not Guilty
Montana Fishburne aka Bumpy (Ass) Johnson, is hoping that a judge rules in her favor, after pleading not guilty to assault with a deadly weapon and false imprisonment. Her and her pimp, um excuse me, I mean boyfriend, were arrested in February, after allegedly breaking into a woman’s house, locking her in the bathroom and beating her! Sounds like lil Montana has been watching to many of her daddy’s movies!

Big Boi Hits The Road
Big Boi is heading out on the road for his Son Of Chico Dusty nationwide tour!

J. Cole Speaks Up!
Well, J. Cole, who has had some controversy with his video for "who dat" has finally responded to Fayetteville State University's chancellor calling out the FSU cheerleaders who were in the video. J Cole said, "That's something that happens all the time in the black community. It's like a generational gap. They can't see past. They can't see the good...they can't see past the curse words". Side note: He'll be here for SummerFest 2010, August 7th! Get your tickets.
