Probably one of the most colorful covers we have seen on Billboard in awhile. Nicki continues to do her thing as “The First Lady of Hip-Hop.” Somewhere Eve, Lil Kim and Foxy Brown are yelling at their publicists.

Rihanna releases the video to “What’s My Name” featuring Drake…the single is currently number one on the Billboard charts. Her fifth studio album Loud hits stores November 16.

To build anticipation  for his upcoming album, T.I drops this viral vid promoting the release which hits stores on December 7.

Lil Jon goes back to his roots in a big way as he has signed a long term deal to be Surrender Night Club’s resident DJ at the Las Vegas Wynn Hotel. At the end of each month, Lil Jon will return to the wheels of steel and it all kicks off on Nov. 24th.

“When I DJ I like to give people memories,” stated Mr. Lil Jon. “I want them to feel like it’s New Year’s Eve. I want them to release, to lose control and party, party, party! Surrender is an amazing venue and I cannot wait to make the people there get out of their mind!”

No doubt the halls of the Wynn will soon be filled with plenty  of “WHAAAT”s, “OKAYYYYY!”s and “YEEEAAAAHHH!”s coming from Surrender.

Times are tough for even for Diddy. It was just announced this week that Diddy will be closing up his flagship Sean John store on New York’s famed 5th Avenue. But really…the news isn’t that bad for Diddy. The closing of the store can be blamed partly due to his monstrous exclusive Sean John distribution deal with Macy’s. No need for a Sean John store when one of the 400 Macy’s in the U.S. is now carrying the full line.

I’m gonna go ahead and say this upfront…I’m still not sure this new Young Money debit card site is legit. But…it’s no joke that Young Money has confirmed that they have been planning to release a pre-paid debit card aimed squarely at the millions of suckers easily impressionable people out there who want to feel as though they are part of the Young Money crew…and can spend like them too. But this new site that popped up called YoungMoneyDebit.com seems a bit sketchy to me and has no clear affiliation with the real Young Money crew. Call me paranoid but no way am I putting my personal info. on that site.

If Dre can be selling laptops (see ads) to the masses well then T-Pain wants some of that Silicone Valley money as well. Check Toshiba’s latest laptop ad campaign featuring T-Pain that is currently running on national TV. I wonder how much he just made for making this joke of an ad. Yea I.m. Jealous. Son.
