WAKA FLOCKA & GUCCI MANE CLASH: "HE'S OFFICIALLY DROPPED - DISLOYAL LIL N*GGA"


Atlanta rappers Waka Flocka Flame and Gucci Mane are reportedly at one another's necks, taking to Twitter with an unexpected beef.
Gucci Mane appeared to strike first by going at Waka and calling him disloyal.
"Waka flacka flames officially dropped off brick squad 1017. Big Guwop say give me a offer fa this disloyal lil n*gga," Gucci tweeted Friday (March 15). (Gucci Mane's Twitter)
Waka acknowledged the comments but refused to entertain the Twitter beef.
"Can't tweet beef #HucciKnowHowIrOck," he tweeted.
""@Money_Ova_Men: So these niggas @WakaFlockaBSM and @Gucci1017 having a "I HATE YOU BITCH" moment... Lol!" LoL"
"@NatureBoy_Jones: @WakaFlockaBSM you erasing twats b?" Can't tweet jones about a nigga I'm a let a lame be lame (Waka Flocka Flame's Twitter)
Some rumors claim their issues have something to do with Hollywood actress Selena Gomez.
Not necessarily best known for staunch commitment to his declarations, Gucci Mane has made the executive decision to relieve Waka Flocka Flame of his Brick Squad 1017 post. The reasons for this are still vague, but we have heard that Waka too had a thing for Spring Breakers actress Selena Gomez, whose intimacy with Wop on set had been rumored. (Complex)
Back in 2010, Flocka came forward to silence feud and beef rumors involving his rap mentor.
"I don't think it's no split. We couldn't meet each other on a business level -- or a personal level," Flocka told radio host DJ Drama. "Whatever the level is, I don't know. I'm going this way and [he's] going that way and we both killin' these folk. That's just what it is...Ain't no drama. Don't ever think it's just like, 'Ey, let's get [him]' ... Don't ever think I'm [going] to ride on him with another person. Let's make that super clear." (Hot 107.9)

DJ KHALED DEFENDS L'IL WAYNE AFTER MIAMI CONTROVERSY: "THERE'S A LOT OF MISUNDERSTANDINGS"


Miami's DJ Khaled has offered his take on close friend Lil Wayne taking direct aim at his city by going at the Heat last month and said Weezy F. Baby never meant any real harm.
In Khaled's perspective, Wayne paid his dues and set the record straight by clarifying his issues with the Heat had nothing to do with South Beach a few weeks ago.
"Miami is my city. I rep Miami and I feel like the Miami Heat is my team. I felt like Wayne went on the radio and showed love to the city and bigged up the city and its love," Khaled said when he appeared on Wednesday's "RapFix Live" on MTV Jams. "I've learned in this game there's a lot of misunderstandings, miscommunications, so it's about love, man, and I know it's love. And that's all I know, so if you gonna ask me, it's love." (MTV)
Wayne's comments struck a chord with Miami native Pitbull who went at him on a "Harlem Shake" freestyle.
It seems Lil Wayne's "F*ck the Miami Heat" rant didn't go over so well with one Miami resident. Namely, Pitbull. Mr. 305 has just released "Welcome to Dade County," a freestyle over Baauer's"Harlem Shake," wherein he addresses Weezy without ever mentioning his name, specifically. He raps: "You got money, yeah yeah, that's sweet/ But we all know Slim and Baby really eat/ You talk Miami if you talking Heat/ Moral of the story, don't sh*t where you eat." (The Boom Box)
South Beach representative Uncle Luke publicly went after Waynein an open blog post following his jabs at the Miami Heat during NBA All-Star Weekend.
"He has no respect for the city because people in Miami's entertainment industry -- from local radio DJs to South Beach nightclub promoters to the Heat's front office -- spread their legs for him and every out-of-town celebrity who rolls through town. Lil Wayne treats Miami like his b*tch because people let him. When Weezy claimed he was thrown out of the Heat home game versus the Lakers, the franchise tried to downplay the incident, saying they only asked him to leave and he left on his own. That was a b*tch move." (Miami New Times)
The Young Money boss stepped forward to address Miami's backlash days later.
"I can't change nobody's personal opinion. I can't change nobody's personal view. I can just keep doing what I do and keep putting food on the table for my family and that's what I'm going to do no matter what. ... I haven't [read Luke's letter], but I already know how he feels about me. I've never met him actually. ... Ever since I got here, there were billboards and signs saying, 'Lil Wayne, Go Back Home,' you know what I mean? And I didn't do anything." (99 Jamz)

[VIDEO] DR. DRE'S GHOSTWRITER WANTS ANOTHER SHOT... AFTER 25 YEARS!


Nearly 25 years after music legend D.O.C. dropped his debut album, the ghostwriter known for penning Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg hits is preparing to take his pen game up a notch in an upcoming series called "Hip Hop Draft."
According to D.O.C., the show will center on his Dallas, Texas roots and utilize his talent to help upcoming artists make a name for themselves.
"You know, you can't let go of the dream that easy, man," D.O.C. said in an interview, referring to his tragic 1989 car accident. "They all say you've got such a story, you've got such a story to tell and it's so powerful and it's so positive and that's where I'm at right now. Dallas-Fort Worth is where my heart is. I want to put the young, deserving people from the city and give them the benefit of those experiences and see if I can get some shine down here because they deserve it too. I'm trying to put these guys together and make some music and change some lives around this motherf*cker because I've done it before." (Playboy Magazine)
The music vet also talked about how involved he was on working alongside N.W.A. through their fame and notoriety days.
"Rap was changing from 'Parents Just Don't Understand' to 'Kids Just Don't Give A F*ck,' D.O.C. explained. "Dre takes me to the studio and I meet, Eazy, Ren and Yella and Dre puts on this drum beat and he says, 'Can you write me something?' I took about 10, 15 minutes and that song was, 'We Want Eazy,' it ended up being the guy's first single. ... The whole West Coast movement changed direction the night I had that accident. Once that sh*t happened, I just wasn't there. I didn't care about anything but getting drunk, getting high and trying to get away from that pain of not being able to do the one thing that I was good at." (Playboy Magazine)
According to a press release, the series will cater to heavily populated cities throughout the nation.
The goal of the HipHopDraft is to go to major cities in America, and around the world, and tell the most compelling stories in hip hop history while creating great songs that launch the careers of new artists.

(Press Release)
Last summer, West Coast rapper Locksmith crowned D.O.C. SOHH Underrated.
"I would say D.O.C. is my pick for SOHH Underrated. He's on there because, of course he wrote a lot of things for N.W.A. and he wrote a lot of Eazy-E's lyrics, but his album was f*cking incredible. He had one album and of course he got into that accident where his throat [got messed up.] But that [No One Could Do It Better] album? It was so, man. To be from the West Coast, his lyrics? Ice Cube was raw, uncut and street and you know D.O.C. was like that pure lyricist. He could destroy cats on the East Coast. You know what I mean? And then the album? It was just an incredible album. People tend to forget about that. They really tend to forget about that. He didn't get to release a lot of singles off that album because, of course, before it was released he got into that accident and didn't really get to promote it. The album is a classic. The music is incredible and the lyrics and the way he flows on it are just like [incredible.]" (SOHH Underrated)

WAKA FLOCKA WARNS: "DON'T LET DA MEDIA FOOL U, THIS SH*T REAL"


Atlanta rapper Waka Flocka Flame is reportedly not letting fans believe new reports which claim former affiliate Gucci Mane's Twitter page was hacked this weekend and therefore their issues are nonexistent.
While Waka did not elaborate much, he did insist fans should not let the media trick them.
"#BossLife," he tweeted early March 17th.
"Dont let da media fool u. This sh*t real Shawty" (Waka Flocka Flame's Twitter)
Last night, an interesting twist popped up online which suggested Gucci's Twitter account fell victim to hackers which sparked an unexpected feud with Waka.
Hmm...Rahim from Warner/Atlantic says Gucci's manager claims Gucci's twitter account was hacked into. But then why is it that more than 12 hours later, 1) there is no "explanation" or retraction tweet. And 2) The diss tweet is still up. Look, hacking happens, so it's possibility. But it doesn't seem to add up in this situation. Also, usually you don't see just one hacked tweet. Also...Gucci can be volatile. So, I'll just say instead, I hope this incident of bad blood between one of my favorite buddy teams in trap rap isn't irreversible. (Miss Info TV)
Despite the update, some media outlets were skeptical of the hacker angle.
After Gucci's tweets last night Waka responded, "Somebody tell Gucci Mane 2 SUCK A D*CK." That tweet has since been deleted. But strangely, as of today, Waka Flocka is still retweeting disparaging comments from his followers about Brick Squad 1017 an telling them to support his label, Brick Squad Monopoly. (XXL Mag)
Some websites have suggested the tensions all center on Hollywood actress Selena Gomez.
Not necessarily best known for staunch commitment to his declarations, Gucci Mane has made the executive decision to relieve Waka Flocka Flame of his Brick Squad 1017 post. The reasons for this are still vague, but we have heard that Waka too had a thing for Spring Breakers actress Selena Gomez, whose intimacy with Wop on set had been rumored. (Complex)

OPRAH RESPOND TO TERRENCE HOWARD ON 'THE STEVE HARVEY SHOW'


"It was supposed to be like a little scene, and because Terrence Howard misbehaved it turned into a bigger scene, and then a bigger scene." Yes, Oprah Winfrey said that and more!
"He's a misbehavin' kinda boy," the former Queen of Daytime TV told Steve Harvey on his very popular show. "He was on Twitter the other day talking about my breastesses."
It seems that Oprah is still holding onto that "Queen of All Media" title she earned back in the '90s. Last week, Howard, while doing press for his current film, Dead Man Down, spoke about his upcoming film, The Butler, in which he has a love scene with Oprah and told the world about the experience.
"Oprah and I had such chemistry. To be able to make out with Oprah and to have love scenes with her and those tig ol' bitties ... She's such a lovely, voluptuous woman ... That was wonderful," said Howard.
Call the remark the glorification of the Black body, or a tasteless and classless commentary, O said that she was not offended by the remark at all, because, well, look at her!
Harvey, ever keen to point out a point, interjected that he had spoken to Howard and gave him some unsolicited advice. "I told Terrence Howard, 'you gonna mess your whole life up son. This ain't who you want to play with. Do you a lil' movie scene. Try to act like a professional about it, then go on 'bout ya business.'"
Say what you want but according to the owner of OWN, Harvey could've kept his comments to himself, according to her, she does have "big breastesses."
