Rihanna has released another single from her upcoming Rated R album and it’s title is as “Hard” as the song itself! With an abrasive party beat, Rihanna and my boo Young Jeezy rap about how “Hard” they are.
“Tougher than a lion/ Ain’t no need in trying/ I live where the sky ends, yup, you know this/Never lying, truth teller/ That Rihanna reign just won’t let up/ … The hottest b*tch in heels right here.”
In Jeezy’s verse, he talks about his progression from the block to the big leagues:
I used to run my block like Obama and them/ Don’t believe me, ask my momma and them/ Tell ‘em give me back my swag/ They tried to clone me/ See my Louis Chucks, Louis flag, Louis flames, Louis belt/ What that make me, ‘Louis Mane’?/ … ‘Hard,’ if one word describes me/ If I wasn’t doing this, you know where’d I be.
So… in a word. The song is appropriately entitled, “Hard”!
Diamond (formerly of Crime Mob) shot the video yesterday for her hot new single “Superbad” featuring Cee-Lo Green. The shoot was held at Opera and Diamond was joined by Rasheeda, Tiny, Toya and more.

Rihanna has announced the completion of her fourth original studio album, Rated R, ans has dropped the first single called Russian Roulette today (10/20) and the video, directed by Anthony Mandler, will premiere on ABC primetime.
The album is scheduled for release November 23rd and the song, written and produced by fellow Def Jam artist Ne-Yo and produced by Chase & Status, is already tearing up these internet streets. Rihanna’s vocals are astounding on the track and if this is a sample of what’s to come, Rated R is already platinum!
Gucci Mane is hot like FIRE these days and on dayum near everybody’s song…even my Big Boi’s “Shine Blockers”! Now a new track has dropped from his upcoming “State vs. Radric Davis” LP, which is scheduled for release in December. This new track is produced by none other than Polow Da Don and features the divorce PAPERS king, Usher Raymond, who sings, “The spotlight ain’t nothing without you girl, and the dance floor ain’t nothing without you, girl/ You a show-stopper/ Let’s get it poppin’” over the hot track.
The new song is entitled “Spotlight” and it’s so hot that the video has already been recorded! According to MTV:
Gucci and Usher shot a video for the song over the weekend in Atlanta. The clip was directed by Benny Boom and according to Gucci’s camp, it’s heavy on performance and club scenes. Young Money princess Nicki Minaj makes a cameo in the clip, and Gucci’s leading lady comes straight from the bloodline of one of the most successful actors in Hollywood history: Bria Murphy, daughter of Eddie, is the woman who makes Gucci goes crazy in this one.
Check out the newest leak from my future ex-husband/baby daddy Big Boi called “Shine Blockas” which features Gucci Mane. Now because I’m biased I’m not gonna say much EXCEPT that this song is one of my favorites from Big’s unreleased CD. I’ve heard Sir Lucious Leftfoot: Son of Chico Dusty in it’s entirety twice and I’m still anxiously awaiting it’s release. Yep…hear it and download it right here first cause I always have to represent for the home team. Naah meen?

And speaking of representing… I read a tweet earlier that said in essence ‘if Jay-Z released a song New York radio is all over it’, so how come Atlanta radio hasn’t represented for their own? I’m not privy to all that radio talk, but I’ve heard that the first song I leaked, For Your Sorrows has gotten “ZERO spins” on Atlanta radio…. WassssupWitThat?

Not only is funny man Mike Epps the host of this year’s BET Hit Hop Awards, he’s also a rapper with a hot new song of his own. Mike recently filmed the video for “Ain’t Chu You” which features Young Dro, Nitti & Dorrough and the song is actually not bad. Mike explained recently that the idea for the song came to mind when he was touring in a small town and someone came up to him and asked “Ain’t Chu You?”…he wrote a few funny lyrics, hit up Nitti for a hot beat and the rest is history.
