Killa Cam sells Juelz’s contract to Jay-Z

What?! Really?! Yeah! Killa Cam sold his man’s contract to anotha label. What the hell is happening to Dipset?! They’ve turned into like 50 sub gang’s. Jimmy has his Barney look-a-like people and now Juelz iz rockstar’d out.

On Miss Info’s blog, Juelz responds to Cam’s sale:

A! What’s good !! Yeah, I’m free!! And ready to do me!! But its still Dip Set 4 life!! Its just going to be a new chapter!! I have no hard feeling for Cam, after all, he did give me a chance!!! But I will say this I was loyal to him and he took advantage. I would like to say sorry to all my fans, and the DJs, and most of all, my city, New York. Play time is over. I’m back. Y’all niggas know what time it is.”

I don’t know if you just read what I did but I’m confused as hell. So are you mad or not?! Somebody help me out.

Thanks… But No Thanks

Ludacris put some crack down on his latest freestyle “Politics (Obama is Here).” Who wouldn’t be honored to have a rap verse dedicated to them?! Well, Barack wouldn’t.

In the track, Ludacris praises Obama and all his glory. However, he goes on to attack Sen. Clinton, Pres. Bush, and Rev. Jesse Jackson. That is where Barack says Luda went too far.

“As Barack Obama has said many, many times in the past, rap lyrics today too often perpetuate misogyny, materialism, and degrading images that he doesn’t want his daughters or any children exposed to. This song is not only outrageously offensive to Senator Clinton, Reverend Jackson, Senator McCain, and President Bush, it is offensive to all of us who are trying to raise our children with the values we hold dear. While Ludacris is a talented individual he should be ashamed of these lyrics.”

As you can tell, that statement is too boring to actually have been written by Sen. Obama himself. It was released by his spokeswomen, Melanie Roussell. But it is his opinion.

Barack Obama has stated many times that he likes rap music but does not agree with its content. He is still on the same side and has not changed his point of view. The guy actually listens to rap hip-hop, which is more than you can say for most men his age. He supports young entreprenuers but wishes they would release less offensive lyrics. The man still has my vote.
