07.20-KIM TRASHES FOXY COLLABO

If you were thinking that age may have mellowed Lil Kim and Foxy Brown to the point where they might unite then think again as Kim killed any hopes of a reconcilliation anytime soon. Kim explained, "I don't even want to mention her. No, because she's just somebody that's just...No, I don't even want to mention her. One moment she got something bad to say about me, one moment she got something good to say. I don't like that flip flop sh--, that just means that you're still crazy! My mom always told me if you know there's a snake in the grass, and you know it's a snake that bit you before, why would you pick it back up? I'm not picking back up anymore snakes no more. Everyone that's around me now are very genuine, positive, and love me. You never know, time goes by and people show their real skin so I don't give people 100% anymore. I brought so many people in this game, I rocked with so many people, showed so many people homage and love. But they don't show it back to me. It doesn't bother me, I just move on. That's why I'm always quiet about things, I just take it on the chin because I'm God's child."

These two...times up.  Period.

07.20-DRAKE OPENS UP

Drake has been doing the rounds in the media and recently spoke out about his music, blogs and how he wants to play President Obama in a film. Drake spoke about his looks and his music saying, "It’s funny — the thing that I hear the least is ‘Drake makes bad music.’ People always have something to say about the way I look or the way I dress. People nitpick at my physical appearance more than my music, which is fine with me because when I look in the mirror, I know I’m not an unattractive person." He went on to reveal how he sometimes feels anxious about negative publicity, "I wake up and I’m scared to flip my phone over because I don’t know what songs have leaked or what girl has said what about me. I don’t let it show because I care too much about the people around me and I need them to feel like I’m solid. No matter how much I may be going crazy inside, I always keep my composure for the sake of the people around me." Drake went on, "I definitely haven’t said this before, but I stopped going on a computer. I have a problem where if I go read a hundred positive things about me and there’s one guy in there who says ‘I hate Drake’ that’s the one I pay attention to. I think that’s a common problem. Negativity hurts us more than positivity helps us. I asked about 10 or 20 people around me, ‘When’s the last time you went on a website and commented on something, like a song dropped and you went on and said, ‘That song is hot’ or ‘That song is terrible?’ And everyone I asked around me, whose opinions I respect, the people I love, were like, ‘I’ve never done that before.’ And these are all level-headed, intelligent people whose opinion I respect, so I just started saying to myself, ‘It takes a certain type of individual to really participate in a group discussion about someone else, especially if they’re going super hard with consistent hate." Speaking on how he would like to play the President Drake explained, "I hope somebody makes a movie about Obama’s life soon because I could play him. That’s the goal [laughs]. I watch all the addresses. Anytime I see him on TV, I don’t change the channel, I definitely pay attention and listen to the inflections of his voice. If you ask anyone who knows me, I’m pretty good at impressions. Slowly but surely, I’m not in the study mode because nobody’s called me about anything, but I just pay attention so when the day comes I’m not scrambling to learn how to speak like him. I want to be involved in great film projects. I don’t want to do the basketball movie that everyone does. I don’t want to do the typical black film that everyone expects. I think that I have enough experience to actually be involved in a real meaty project full of substance." But it's not just Obama who Drake looks up to, as he revealed he has a shrine dedicated to Outkast's Andre 3000, "I have a shrine in my apartment dedicated to Andre. I took a door off a barn and had an artist take the lyrics from his verses [and put them] on this barn door. As soon as you walk into my apartment that’s the first thing you see." 

Yeah, Andre is the truth and always has been...but, um, Drake, you'd better stop wearing your heart on your sleeves, son...you can't worry about what a non-inspired person says about you...this dude better definitely man up!

07.20-TOO SHORT ON UNDERAGE GIRL ALLEGATIONS

In case you missed it, veteran rapper Too Short reportedly got himself int toruble after trying to sneak underage girls backstage recently. This led to a fight and the rapper and associate Michael T. Walton were arrested before posting bail and being released. Too Short has spoken out to address the allegations, saying, "The accusations against me regarding my arrest in Idaho on July 15th, were untrue and exaggerated. Normally I would ignore rumors, but because of the nature of the story that's being spread I had to say something. I don't blame these outlets for running with the story because it's about Too Short the 'dirty rapper' who has never had a scandal and it involved the words 'under age girls'. However due to my work with young people in Oakland I am extremely outraged at the way I am being portrayed. The incident that night was completely taken out of context and I have not and never will take advantage of any woman that is underage. Never that!" Too Short went on to ask his fans not to believe everything they read or hear and says he remains dedicated to various youth organizations. Ok, but we have to say it didn't sound very good when that story first broke...

07.20-SHYNE TALKS PUFFY AND CLUB SHOOTING

Shyne has spoken up about the infamous nightclub shooting that saw him sentenced to ten years behind bars and his thoughts on why Puffy didn't stand by him in court. Shyne said, "I don't know whether he was nervous, afraid. When you're afraid and you're emotional, that's a different survival tactic. Those are the people that do anything, regardless of character and integrity, to preserve and protect themselves, regardless of who they hurt. I guess maybe that was the situation. Never been in a situation like that, where he facing years, and he got hundreds of millions and all that shit at stake. But where I'm from, doesn't matter. You lose everything for your comrade. Again, if you're in battle, I'll catch a bullet, too. It ain't like, Yo, he's dead. Don't make no sense for me to die, too. Nah, I'ma die, too! So you hope or you take for granted that all men are the same. But I know all men are not." Shyne went on to speak on how his time behind bars changed him, "I looked at bein' in the pen for 10 joints as my opportunity to concentrate, to get things in perspective. And I never let it devastate me, although it was devastating, because I never thought I was gonna be in jail for 10 years. I thought I was gon' make a bail. I thought I was gon' get my sh*t reversed. I'm terribly optimistic."

Puffy seems like he's not a very loyal person to anyone but himself, and unfortunately, Shyne, cats like him that are only out for self gratification, exist.  They don't believe in team, they believe in I.

07.20-DREAM'S FRIEND SAYS CHRISTINA WAS IN DENIAL

A friend of The Dream has come out to say how Christina Milian was in denial about her break-up with the producer, saying, "I'm not going to act like he was perfect, but there is no way that Christina can act like she didn't know they're marriage was over before last week. They had many discussions about how things weren't working out. But Christina was not trying to hear it. Maybe it was the pregnancy hormones or whatever. But they would have a conversation about separating, and the next time they talk she would act like everything was cool. But real talk. How could she think everything was OK. The man did not live with her, they didn't spend the Holidays together, and he didn't go to her baby shower. Just try and put yourself in his shoes, he realized that he rushed into a marriage and he tried to be honest and get out. I know that she's hurt, but she can't act like all this stuff is coming out of left field." Sounds possible...but it's easy to be in denial, when someone is lying to you, too, and you want to believe them...keep your head up, Christina...and for the people who are always saying that she wants his money - have you checked the girl's film credits - she's been acting since the 90's - singer she is NOT, but actress, she IS.
