“The case Lil Wayne is in jail for now, when T.I. went, when Gucci Mane went–that was supposed to be 50 Cent. Sometimes I look at artists when they get in trouble after success and it makes me feel like they didn’t experience enough of that prior to the success. If you did, you would know better…[Around my signing], Damon Dash made reference to a million dollars being no money . . . in a kind of derogatory way. When he said that, I paid close attention to where I was at financially. But maybe he should’ve paid attention to his.”

In an interview with XXLMag.com, Spitta addresses his newly-formed relationship with Dame Dash, making music (and rollin’ doobies) with Wiz Khalifa, and how he doesn’t feel that Weezy was taking shots at him on a skit from his Dedication 3shit sandwich mixtape:
XXLMag.com: Many speculated that Lil Wayne was throwing shots at you on the “Do’s and Don’t’s of Young Money” skit off Dedication 3. Why’d you choose not to respond?
Curren$y: There were some questionable statements on there. But for one, I didn’t hear my name. People in New Orleans were like; “I think dude was talking about you on Dedication 3.” I heard the shit and even as I’m hearing it I was like, Nah. The stats didn’t match me and then I’m like, That shit didn’t have nothing to do with me, so I didn’t give a fuck. And then I didn’t hear my name; I feel like if they had problems with me, they would say me.

“I’m shooting seven videos today,” said Wayne, in his trailer on-set in Miami, in a brand-new clip you’ll see here exclusively.
One of the videos of the night was for the Rebirth track “Runnin.”
“I’mma show y’all the [work] ethic of a true artist,” Wayne says in the clip. “You know what I’m talkin’ about? Seven videos. I shot 10 in two days before. Now we about to do seven in one night. ['Runnin'] was one. Next we about to do Drake’s song called ‘Afrika Boombatta.’ “
Wayne’s work ethic = best in the game.

RICHMOND – RICHMOND, Va. (AP) – Three members of a Richmond rap group have been sentenced for distributing cocaine and using the money to support their music venture.

Kanye West was asked to leave Radio City Music Hall not long after he crashed the MTV Video Music Awards stage during Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech for Best Female Video.
The rapper rushed onto the stage and immediately protested Swift’s win, saying Beyoncé instead deserved the honor.
“I’m sorry, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time,” ‘Ye proclaimed after he pulled the microphone out of the country star’s hands. B looked stunned as she sat by in the audience.
