UPDATE: THE CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED. ANY ENTRIES POSTED AFTER WED April 23 11:59PM WILL NOT BE COUNTED. IF YOU ARE CHOSEN YOU WILL BE NOTIFIED BY E-MAIL. TO ALL THE REST THANKS FOR PARTICIPATING AND KEEP YOUR WOOOHA ON!

20th Century Fox hooks it up again. I’m giving away 3 DVDs (buy the Blu-ray yourself) of the new NOTORIOUS Unrated Director’s Cut which hits stores tomorrow. All you have to do is leave a comment about what your favorite Biggie song is and leave your e-mail address IN THE E-MAIL BOX (not in the body of the comment box). I will then choose three winners this Thursday. If you win you will be contacted by e-mail so I can get your shipping instructions.

Remember, this is the UNRATED DIRECTOR’S CUT…so if you have the bootleg then you haven’t seen this version. If you are impatient like I am…just buy it tomorrow at Best Buy or Wal-Mart. Or make your mom buy it for you. It’s educational…hip-hop history. This contest is for the single disc and not for the 3-Disc Collector’s Edition which has over 2 hours of behind the scenes extras.

Kanye West x Air Yeezys. Some how I don’t think Kanye will be wearing these any time soon. Check the Air Yeezy “Gay Fish” colorways that you can buy for the cool price of $1,500. Trey and Matt of South Park should buy em though. How is it that the “Do you like fish sticks?” joke is still funny? Admit it. You still laugh everytime one your friends says it. Via: SmartenUpNas

Asher Roth x Flight Club. Asher Roth is everywhere these days. In promotion of his new album that dropped yesterday, Universal Motown and Asher teamed up with NY’s Flight Club for this limited release t-shirt. Only 100 were made which means you can probably buy them on E-bay now for about $500. Check out more pics after the jump… Continue Reading…

Pharrell x ARTST.com. As previously mentioned, Pharrell has recently been actively involved in the fine arts industry (check these candles and chairs he designed). It’s good to see that he is taking a positive stance to educate the hip-hop world on the fine arts and in doing so has created ARTST Guild & Gallery, an online community for artists to share their work, their ideas and their passion. The name ARTST comes from Pharrell‚Äôs idea that ‚ÄúThere is no I because it‚Äôs not about me.‚Äù He goes on to state:

“Being in N.E.R.D. you’ll notice that we always send out messages about what kids can do, what they can become, you can wait for the stars to align for you or you can reach up into the sky and align the stars. We created this network to give people an opportunity to get the visibility they deserve, to reach into the sky.”

According to the website press release “members can upload and showcase anything creative: music, architecture, painting, or even fashion, and then comment on the work of others and collaborate with each other. More than just a gallery, it’s a guild for those who create art.” Make sure to check it out.

Omarion x Oboi’s. Since he isn’t hanging out with his BFF Bow Wow lately, Omarion has passed the time developing a new sneaker line calle The Oboi’s. Check out the first promo pics of the shoeline here courtesy of our friends at CL. One might say the kicks are Air Yeezy inspired. No word yet on when these hit the public. More pics after the jump… Continue Reading…

Snoop Dogg x Madame Tussauds. Snoop Dogg unveiled himself…ahem…the $300K wax version of himself yesterday at Madame Tussauds in Vegas. He becomes the third hip-hop artist to be immortalized in wax behind Pac and BIG. It would have been nice if he wore his LBC black hoodie from “Nothin But G Thang” though. That’s classic right there.

We have partnered with 20th Century Fox for today’s release of NOTORIOUS on DVD (and don’t forget that Naturi nude scene in hi-def Bluray) and present to you this exclusive clip from the Unrated Director’s Cut. Check out the video after the jump. The video is called “The Ladies” and it’s pretty obvious what it’s about. Faith>Kim in my book.

And don’t forget to enter our contest where you can win the NOTORIOUS DVD….or just buy it. But don’t download it or studios won’t exist any more and I won’t have any more free stuff to give away.

Common x Wanted 2. Word on the street is that the script for Wanted 2 is being written as we speak. Yea so how can they do a sequel if everyone dies? Sorry for that spoiler but yea so apparently in the script for the sequel there are some key charachters that apparently survive.

Fox (Angelina Jolie) and the Gunsmith (Common) are the two that supposedly survive and carry on the Fraternity. Does this mean Common will be back? If so, hopefully he will have a bigger role this time. We’ll keep you updated on this one.
