VIDEO: Snoop confirms E-40 part of Landy Cognac partnership deal


When Landy Cognac first announced their partnership with Snoop Dogg earlier this month details of the deal were still being put into place. Now with a little more information and this video to prove it, WoooHa can confirm that E-40 is officially part of the partnership deal which calls for both Snoop and E-40 to launch their own spinoff brand of alcohol under the Landy label. Now Landy will have two of Cali’s finest representing. I smell a rap alcohol branding war brewing with T.I. (Remy Martin) and Diddy (Ciroc) brewing.

Watch Soulja Boy’s 20th Birthday on Pay-Per-View


Soulja Boy is looking to take advantage of his fame any way he can by turning his 20th Birthday party into a pay-per-view event. On July 28th, 8pm PST, fans can pay just a mere $2.99 to watch the Hollywood event live which will include a red carpet VIP entrance and a performance of new and past hits. You must be a pretty hard core Soulja Boy fan to get in on this action. Honestly, this sounds more like something LeBron, Maverick and their LRMR Marketing group would be involved with.

MUSIC VIDEO: Nicki Minaj – “Your Love”

Nicki Minaj releases “Your Love” after finding success on the Billboard charts. The track  landed #1 on the Hip Hop singles category a few weeks ago and is currently in the Top 10 position. If you are wondering where the Samurai/Geisha theme comes from in the music video I guess you’ll get the hint from her lyrics:

“Anyway I think I met him in the Sky, When I was a Geisha he was a Samurai

Somehow I understood him when he spoke Thai.”

This really makes no sense. Does Nicki know of some secret clan of Thai Samurai? But I guess if she said “Japanese” instead it wouldn’t rhyme anymore.
