Although Gucci is locked up, his album STATE VS. RADRIC DAVIS was still able to move 90K units its first week out. Not bad at all considering artists like Snoop and The Clipse did significantly less their first week. Now go celebrate and free the man by wearing one of these official “Free Gucci Mane” tees.

Looks like it could be funny. Any movie that uses J-5 in their trailer gets the thumbs up by us. Movie hits theaters March 19, 2010.

What does Bruce Willis have to do with hip-hop? Absolutely nothing. Until now. John McClain and Queen Latifah have teamed up to exec produce the documentary The Hip Hop Project which follows a group of New York city teens who overcome all obstacles to record an album together.

So how did the “What is G?” campaign turn out?

Sales and market share both fell in the first half, when the “What Is G?” marketing campaign was in full effect. In the first half of 2009, volume dropped 18%, according to Beverage Digest, while market share dropped four points to 75%. So yea…not good. Not good at all.
