LIL WAYNE SUES BIRDMAN FOR $51 MILLION

Lil Wayne and Birdman

According to TMZ, Lil Wayne claims Birdman violated the terms of their deal by withholding tens of millions of dollars Cash Money owes him for his oft-delayed album Tha Carter V.

Since Cash Money is refusing to pay, Wayne says he’s entitled to cancel the contract. Not only does Weezy want his freedom, he’s also suing for a whopping $51 million.

Wayne wants the judge to give him joint copyright ownership of all Young Money recordings including those of Drake, Nicki Minaj, Tyga, and more. He plans to take his artists with him off Cash Money.

However, if Birdman pays, Wayne’s camp will allow Cash Money to release Tha Carter V. Wayne was supposed to get an $8 million advance when he started recording in December 2013 and another $2 million when he completed the album a year later, but so far he’s received nothing.

An apologetic Breezy took to Instagram to make the announcement. “I would first like to apologize to all the fans and people who have been supporters of me and all the music over the years,” he said.

Earlier this month, the judge revoked. Chris’ probation due to unapproved travel and failure to complete his 1000 hours of community service on time. The judge would not allow him to travel for the tour until he performs 100 more hours of community service.

“The judge would not sign off on my travel to do the tour until I finish these last 100 hours of community service,” he said. “I promise that I am busting my ass doing it everyday until it’s complete. This is the most disappointing news I’ve gotten in a while.”

Method Behind the Madness: 

“This song came about by listening to the previous #goodwillWednesdays that I put out. The first #goodwillwednesday song (in my zone) was so chill and mellow and I sorta felt like I drifted from that direction so as it turns out, when fat drugs sent me this beat right on time. It was perfect. I wanted to make a song that illustrated the way I am in my party mode. A fun and good time song.”

image1

When you think of MC’s that come from Bed Stuy, Brooklyn, legendary names such as JAY Z, Big Daddy Kane, and Notorious B.I.G comes to mind.  But in 2015, there are a new wave of up and coming MC’s coming out the Stuy and they are ready to make their mark.  One artist being $lick Pu$ha, the young MC with the pretty boy swag and fiery flow is on the horizon.  $LICK PU$HA started rhyming when he was 17, but just used it as a hobby.  He was always more of an athlete growing up.

$LICK would always write rhymes but never took it seriously.  Now at age 20, he is  evolving into an artist that wants to be remembered for his music .  He respects anybody that has turned a negative into a positive and coming from the streets of Bed Stuy, that is exactly what $LICK PU$HA has done.  His number one goal is to be remembered for his music and for people to understand his overall presence as not just a talented artist but a real person.

Expect big things to come from $LICK PUSHA!!  Make sure you look out for his new video for his new single “Wait on It,” dropping Feb. 1st.  Check out the single below:

Whitney Met With Mixed Reviews

The highly anticipated Whitney Houston biopic ‘Whitney’ aired on Lifetime Saturday night to mixed reviews.
Unlike Lifetime’s Wendy Williams produced Aaliyah biopic, Angela Basset received a much warmer welcome for her Whitney Houston biopic.

While there were many complaints that the feature was way too short and focused too much on Bobby Brown and not enough on Whitney fans on social media were pleased with YaYa DeCosta’s portrayal of Whitney Houston and with Deborah Cox’s vocals.
