Keyshia Cole Caught in the Gucci Mane / Young Jeezy War
The beef between Gucci Mane and Young Jeezy heats back up with Keyshia Cole getting caught in the middle.
Gucci Mane and Young Jeezy have been at war ever since their 2005 disagreement over a track they did together called “So Icy”. So Icy was supposed to appear on Jeezy’s debut album “Thug Motivation 101” but ended up on Gucci’s independent release ‘Back to the Trap House’.
Later that year Gucci Mane was set up by a stripper and ambushed by five guys that ended with Gucci killing one of his assailants and subsequently being acquitted of murder.
It is widely believed that Jeezy was behind the set up.
Earlier this week Gucci Mane alluded to being set up by Jeezy on the Power 105 Breakfast Club radio show and called Jeezy a sucker.
Jeezy responded on Power 106’s Big Boy’s Neighborhood and called Gucci ‘retarded’ and said Gucci is just mad because he won’t do another track with him.
And then last night Gucci dropped the diss track ‘Truth (Not a Jeezy Diss)’ getting at Young Jeezy while dragging Keyshia Cole in it.
In the track he spits,
Ain’t nothing retarded about Gucci but this gold Rolex/A $10,000 bounty put on my neck/ I hope you didn’t pay them cause they didn’t have no success/ You seen my interview nigga and you got upset/ I seen your interview too you looked oh so stressed/I think the nigga just mad cause I fucked his ex/ and I’m a big dog he got the little man complex/Go dig your partner up nigga I bet he can’t say shit/
In the second verse Gucci outs Keyshia and Puffy.
I did a song with Keyshia Cole/ and I know you still miss her/ but Puff was f*ckin’ her while you was falling in love with her/

Memphitz Socks Love and Hip Hop Atlanta with a Multi-Milli Lawsuit
Memphitz Wright is sick and tired of K. Michelle spewing her abuse allegations against him and has slapped Mona Scott-Young and Love and Hip Hop Atlanta with a multi-million dollar lawsuit.
It’s Only Entertainment got a hold of the press release,
Mickey Wright, Jr. p/k/a “MeMpHiTz”, is filing a federal lawsuit against the creators and producers of the popular VH-1 reality television show “Love And Hip Hop: Atlanta.”
Attorneys Conti J. Moore, Esq. of Conti Moore Law, PLLC and Alcide L. Honoré, Esq. of Hooper & Honoré, LLC, are representing Mr. Wright. He is filing suit against the following entities: Viacom International, Inc.; NFGTV, Inc.; and Monami Entertainment, LLC.
Wright is suing the named Defendants for approximately one dollar per viewer per show for damages that stem from the defamatory statements and denigrating actions of cast member Kimberly Michelle Pate p/k/a “K. Michelle”.
According to Attorney Conti J. Moore, Esq., whose practice is based in Orlando, Florida, “Ms. Pate has taken full advantage of society’s tendency to accept claims of domestic violence as always being true, even in the absence of proof. The only abuse that actually occurred is the malicious and calculated pattern of vicious lies Ms. Pate has assailed for the purpose of fabricating a compelling story line in an attempt to ruin my client’s name.”
Atlanta based Attorney Alcide L. Honoré, Esq. maintains that, “even the most ridiculous statements when repeated frequently become true in the minds of many. Ms. Pate’s preposterous claims, which include allegations that Mr. Wright mismanaged funds and caused her career to ‘flop’, have been adopted as truth by many followers of the popular VH-1 reality series.”
Wright maintains that the suit is not about revenge but is instead about defending himself and his professional reputation from the malicious false and misleading statements made about him on the popular VH-1 reality show.
“My family and I have suffered tremendously while VH-1, Monami Ent., and the other companies provided a worldwide platform for K. Michelle to repeatedly assassinate my character. The filing of this suit is to compensate for the irreparable damage that has been done to my reputation and to deter these companies from doing such future harm to others.”

Solange Opens up about Being Married at 17, Her Love for Blue Ivy, and why She Enjoys Being an Independent Artist
Solange has never been one to hold anything back when it comes to her personal life and family. She recently sat down and took some glamorus pics for London’s Evening Standard magazine. She opens up about loving being an independent artist, to Beyonce and Blue Ivy, why good sex is important, even getting married and having a baby by the age of 18. Check out some excerpts:
On Getting Pregnant & Settling Down at 17-Years-Old
“I just loved being at home and being domestic,’ she says. ‘We would have gotten married for sure anyway, but then I found out I was pregnant. We were crazy, impulsive teenagers and I was obviously craving some sort of stability. [My family] were alarmed and frightened that their 17-year-old daughter wanted to get married and have a kid, but I’d been working since I was 13. I was making my own money. I wasn’t really asking permission, and once they found out I was serious about it, they were supportive and amazing.’
On Her Close Relationship With Beyonce
[Kelly Rowland’s] mother was a nanny for another family, so Kelly lived with us when they first moved from Atlanta. She was like a second sister. It definitely was tough, having your sister have a built-in BFF, and me being five years younger. But my sister was very protective of me, and we were very sweet with each other. I’m sure if we were closer in age we wouldn’t have gotten along so great. But we’ve been super-close ever since I was about 13.”
On First Telling Her Father She Wanted to Be a Singer & An Unsuccessful First Album
“And he told my mother, who said, ‘Oh, no. We don’t want you doing this, too. You can do anything in the world! You’re so smart.’ I think she was nervous about me losing my childhood. My sister started at such a young age that this was her life for as long as she could remember. From a very early age I decided that I wanted to be able to do my music but still be able to live a normal life. I went into the meeting [with Columbia] and said, ‘I want it to be clear that I want to write all of my music. I want to have control of that.’ I had grown up around this.” After a disagreement with the label, Solange had to promote the album, Solo Star, on her own. “I didn’t care. I didn’t need the money…” She pauses. “It wasn’t very successful.”
On Her Second Album Not Being Received Well
“I’d have to time it around the baby’s naps,” she says. “And make sure he wasn’t crying in the background on demos. [I wrote] all of these Sixties songs… I would send them to my publisher [EMI] and would check every day if someone was interested. This was before the retro vibe of Amy Winehouse and Adele… they were not very well received.”
On Why She’s Not on a Label
“I don’t think there’s a need if you are able to fund it yourself and have a strong sense of development as an artist. It means you aren’t dependent on some A&R dude to position you with writers or producers or figure out your next direction. Major labels act as banks in terms of how they produce and release your album. No major label is really good or bad, they just 100 per cent operate as a business, which makes sense… no hard feelings.”
On The “Sexual Vibe”of Her Next Album (Summer 2012)
“There’s a lot of sexual vibes on it. I think I just finally started having good sex. This woman came up to me the other day and said, “You know, I think people dress a lot better when they’re in love with themselves, with other people, or with where their life is.”
On Having a Private Life, Especially With Blue Ivy
“I think there’s a way to protect yourself. I think the fact that I live here is very helpful. It’s about working it and not letting it work you, about being very selective about what you do and who you do it with.”
On if she gets to see Beyonce and Blue Ivy a lot
Yes. Actually, I invited them over for dinner tonight. I’m excited to see her; I haven’t seen her in a week and half.’ She wraps her coat around her, bracing against the weather. “You know, my sister and I truly are best friends.
Beyonce Begins Work on Two New Albums
Beyoncé may have given birth to her first child last month, but the singer is already planning two new projects to write and record in 2012. Ryan Tedder, OneRepublic frontman and co-writer of Beyoncé tunes such as “Halo” and “I Was Here,” says that he and other producers are cooking up raw material that the singer will have the option to complete in the studio. “All I can say is, you kind of feed her the best that you have and she’s this phenomenal filter and she takes it all in,” Tedder told the BoomBox at the Grammy Awards ceremony on Sunday.
“The conversations about her next album literally just started and there [are] two projects happening,” says Tedder. The songwriter did not divulge the nature of the projects, though he did mention that he is submitting songs about motherhood and that the singer is not planning to chase current trends in pop music. “She’s not interested in 2012, she’s interested in what’s [going to sound good for] 2013.”
It is likely that one of the two projects will be music for the soundtrack to Clint Eastwood’s forthcoming remake of A Star Is Born, which will feature the R&B star as the female lead.
New Music: Lil’ Kim – ‘If You Love Me’
Lil’ Kim shows love to her fans this Valentine’s Day with her new song “If You Love Me.” The Queen Bee demands some action from her man instead of just talk. “If you love me, you would say it in front of the world,” sings Kimmy Blanco on the upbeat Auto-Tuned record. “Beyoncé and Jay, that could’ve been us/ But it’s no trust and all we do is fuss.” I’m kinda diggin’ it!! What you think?? Does Kimmy has a hit on her hands??
