Juvenile Arrested for Club Brawl In Miami

 

Juvenile linked up with Lil Wayne at the LIV nightclub last night, August 19th, in Miami, but the night didn't end on a good note as planned.  Juvenile allegedly became involved in a fist-flying brawl that erupted inside of the club, although police aren't sure how the brawl began.
According to the Miami Beach Police Offense Incident Case Report Summary, "Juvenile was involved in the fight, however it was unknown exactly what were defendants [sic] actions during the fight.  He was with a group of individuals along with co-defendants that he saw in the middle of the fight as it occurred inside the club.  It then spilled outside to the front of the hotel, where roughly 100 people were yelling and screaming and some were pushing."
It was later reported that Juvenile tried to exit the wild scene in his vehicle; however, he became involved in an altercation with an "unknown subject" on the way to his car.
Juvenile was later released from jail and blamed the entire incident on the lack of security at the club.  "Man that club LIV on the beach has a security problem and I got caught up in it.  That's all."
It's unclear whether or not Juvenile will have to return to court to settle the matter.

50 Cent Shares His Thoughts on Snoop Dogg's New "Lion" Persona

 

Snoop Dogg's decision to incorporate his new "Lion" persona into his rap name has sparked much discussion and confusion as to why he chose to make the change. G-Unit general 50 Cent becomes the latest to offer his opinion on the matter, explaining the negatives and positives it may have.
"It's interesting. Of course, there will be some people who connect to it and there will be some people that run from it - I don't know how his little league team's parents will feel about his new persona. But again, it's a persona - these are the choices he's created for himself creatively. And, you know, I think it will work."
50 goes on to explain that Snoop, along with many other artists, have embraced the marijuana culture and states that they've been able to benefit from it through music.
"Snoop's always been that. In the very beginning, that was his consistent theme - he had the w**d, and everything else was there. [But] for hip-hop culture, it will work, because there's enough of that going on; Wiz Khalifa, his entire theme is that. I've consistently seen artists sell 500,000 copies with that as a theme: Redman, Method Man, Styles P."

Q-Tip Discusses Being Signed to G.O.O.D. Music

 

Back in early April, Kanye West signed Hip Hop veteran Q-Tip to his G.O.O.D. Music label but since then, not much has been heard from the long time emcee. As the label is steadily prepping for the release of their "Cruel Summer" compilation album, it leaves many to wonder what role Q-Tip has played in the making of it. In a recent interview with Complex, Q-Tip discusses "Cruel Summer", his deal with the label, and working with the label's younger artists.
He starts off by discussing what he has brought to the table for the label's compilation LP.
"I've done beats. I've done rhymes. We'll see. I didn't mix. I'm just contributing. I was in New York with Pusha, Kanye and DJ Khaled. Fat Joe was there. One time Cudi was there. It varied. It was cool. Everybody was working. Again, the music is a unifying thing. As long as you keep it centered around music, it's all good."
Q-Tip then explained some of the details on how he ultimately agreed to sign with Kanye's label.
"It's a long journey, but I've basically been signed to Universal in some way shape or form or incarnation for about 10 years. So I've just kind of been through the system. I still had an obligation to fill and they didn't necessarily want to discard me for whatever reasons so I kind of had my pick of the litter. Dreamworks, Interscope, Motown, and then Def Jam.
I met Kanye years ago at a show. I was working with Kanye during Watch The Throne. I was playing him beats that I was doing and he was like, "Yo, what label are you on?" And I was like, "Def Jam." And he was like, "Damn you need to be on G.O.O.D." And we were rocking, and I was like, let's do it. It's that simple."
He also stated that despite his longevity in the industry, he can still learn from newer artists such as Big Sean and Kid Cudi.
"Absolutely. That's the thing, never stop learning. I like to learn, I'm just a sucker for new information. Learning, working, trying to innovate, and striving. Still being me. My job isn't to be here and be talking about how I'm buying out the bar and tricking my bitches. That's never been my thing and it's not going to start. I don't kid myself.
But I am a student and I have managed to continue to learn. So I definitely learn from Cudi, Sean, and Pusha. Just listening, sitting back, and studying sometimes. You have to be quiet to gain."

Team USA Victory Party Goes Down Live at Club Bud In London

To honor the Gold medal victory that Team USA captured in their final basketball game vs. Spain at the 2012 London Olympic games, a celebratory party was thrown at Club Bud presented by TAO/MARQUEE with Swizz Beatz.
Swizz Beatz let the Queen classic "We Will Rock You" blast through the venue as the U.S. Men's basketball team made their way to the stage beside him.  Swizz then let the bottles pop as he showered the many in attendance with some expensive champagne.  Once he put on the Jay-Z & Kanye West hit single "Ni**as In Paris",  the entire team busted out their dance moves much to the crowd's pleasure.
Carmelo Anthony and Kobe Bryant were accompanied by their wives Lala and Vanessa, who arrived wearing seductive leopard print dresses.  Kobe and his wife Vanessa refused to take photos together, as they were too busy spending much of the night dancing very close together.  Meanwhile, Lebron James, Russel Westbrook, Kevin Durant, and the rest of the U.S. squad were photographed with nothing but smiles on their faces the whole night.
To close out the show, Nas surprised the 2,000 party-goers with a surprise performance, as the high end fiesta went on well past 3 a.m. and had everyone singing and dancing while swelling with pride for the United States.

The movie depicting legendary gangsta rap group N.W.A. is officially underway. It will be directed by F. Gary Gray, who is responsible for such gems as "Friday" and the "Italian Job".
Back in June, Gray held a casting call for the movie in order to choose the best actors for the role, in both appearance and skill. It seems now he has made his decision on a lineup. Dr. Dre posted a picture of him and Gray on Twitter yesterday, so it looks like this is all legitimately happening.

Vanessa Bryant Wants a Husband Who Wins Championships

 

Kobe Bryant better be winning a championship next year if he wants to reconcile with his estranged wife Vanessa, because she revealed that she doesn't want to marry a man who doesn't win rings.
In a yet to be released interview with New York Magazine, Vanessa was quoted saying, “I certainly would not want to be married to somebody that can’t win championships." She justified her statement by adding, “If you’re sacrificing time away from my family and myself for the benefit of winning championships, then winning a championship should happen every single year.”
Assuming these quotes are accurate, do you think Vanessa's being realistic?

Will Dwight Howard Miss The Start Of Next Season?

 

When Dwight Howard announced he would be joining the Lakers next season, Lakers Nation already had visions of an NBA Championship in 2013. A starting line-up that will include Kobe, Nash, Gasol and Howard seems like a recipe for victory, but there is one question. When will Howard be able to return from his season-ending back injury he suffered last year? And when he does come back, will he be 100% healthy? Multiple sources told ESPN that Howard will in fact miss the start of next season.
"My health is great," Howard said. "I'm getting a lot better and a lot stronger every day. I'm looking forward to the doctor saying you are free to play. I can't wait for that day."
In addition to his health, everyone is wondering whether or not Howard will opt to stay in Los Angeles the following season.
"Right now, it's about today and I'm here with the Lakers and that's the only thing that matters," explained Howard when asked if he would sing a long term deal at the end of next season. "Whatever happens a year from now we'll wait until that time. Right now, it's all about the Lakers and me starting fresh. I'm happy to be here and that's the only thing that matters now."
