50 Cent has taken small jabs here and there at Fox's hit show "Empire," saying it got its marketing strategy from his Showtime series, "Power." He also called it a rap version of "Glee" and has taken various other shots at the series. During the "Empire" season finale, an ad for "Power" ran that included the tagline "Empires are built on Power," a not-so-subtle reference to the show that pretty much everyone who saw the commercial caught. Jersey rapper Joe Budden caught it as well, and tweeted out that he thought it was petty, followed by an "lol," indicating that it was clearly not to be taken seriously. 50 saw the tweet, however, and proceeded to call out Budden, calling him a b*tch and saying he thought they were cool.

Lil Wayne was tyring to keep the vibe going at his concert at Fort Lauderdale's Nova Southeastern University, but things went downhill when the rapper was ready to perform his "CoCo" freestyle. When it came time for the DJ to spin the song, he played the original version with O.T. Genasis instead of Wayne's version.

Boston Police are currently investigating a rather unusual case, as a man of the cloth, Reverend Shaun O. Harrison, who also happens to be a high school dean, is accused of shooting a 17-year-old student execution-style over a drug dispute. Why? Because the reverend is also an alleged drug kingpin. According to police, Harrison lured the 17-year-old to a street Tuesday night with the promise of drugs and and girls, then shot his student in the back of the head and fled on foot. Somehow, the shooting wasn't fatal, and the recovering teen was able to tell officers that he sold weed for Harrison. In addition to being a preacher, dean and drug lord, Harrison also led substance-abuse and anger management programs for teens.
A question by XXL Magazine concerning the waiting period for Wu-Tang Clan's highly anticipated Once Upon A Time In Shaolin album led to a harsh response from Method Man and a subsequent series of debunking tweets from RZA. Yesterday (March 4), Method Man told the Hip Hop publication, "fuck that album." “I’m tired of this shit and I know everybody else is tired of it, too," he said. "Fuck that album, if that’s what they are doing. I haven’t heard anything like that, but if they’re doing crap like that, fuck that album. Straight up. I’m just keeping it 100." Shortly after the interview was published on XXL.com , RZA took to Twitter to clarify Method's comments. "Y'all misinformed homies better go roll that sHhh light that Shhh and smoke that shhh and calm down. Y'all falling for the pork in the bun," he wrote via the social media site . "A lot of you are not listening to what is already in front of you. Thi
Wu-Tang members Method Man and RZA may need to have a sit down soon, as Tical recently revealed that he thinks RZA's idea not to release their final album, Once Upon a Time In Shaolin, for 88 years is just plain stupid. "What do you mean 88 years?," he exclaimed when the magazine informed him of RZA's plan. "F**k that album. I'm tired of this s**t and I know everybody else is tired of it, too. F**k that album, if that's what they are doing. I haven't heard anything like that, but if they're doing crap like that, f**k that album. Straight up. I'm just keeping it 100. When music can't be music and y'all turning it into something else, f**k that. Give it to the people, if they want to hear the s**t, let them have it. Give it away free. I don't give a f**k; that ain't making nobody rich or poor. Give the f**king music out. Stop playing with the public, man." Meth was originally down for the idea of a W
A video which shows Alley Boy getting roughed up by group of men recently hit the web, and it sparked some serious Twitter shots between the Atlanta rapper and Buggy from New York rap group G4 Boyz. In the video, Alley Boy struggles with several guys before breaking free and running away, apparently leaving his shirt behind. It's unclear whether the group were trying to detain Alley or beat him down, and while no real punches are seen thrown in the brief clip, it definitely appears that Alley Boy's lip has been bloodied. After the footage surfaced, Buggy of G4 Boyz took to Twitter where he sent shots at Alley, mocking him and calling him a "pu*sy boyy." Alley eventually responded on Instagram, writing "ONLY WAY A N**GA EVER TRIED ME WAS WIT DA POLICE!!," reinforcing the theory that the group of men were simply trying to hold the rapper until law enforcement could arrive. Later, Alley shared photos of bail paperwork which he captioned with
