So Is Omarion Signed with Young Money or What?



Well, according to this video his is officially a member of the Young Money Entertainment family. Why oh why is he on the label again! Someone please explain this to me.

12 Tracks Completed For the New T-Wayne Album



The long-discussed T-Wayne album, pairing a now-rock-obsessed Lil Wayne and R&B hookmaster T-Pain, is still a priority despite being a work in progress, according to T-Pain.

“We got 12 songs right now,” Pain told MTV News. “We going slow; there’s no rush. It can come out whenever. We’re gonna keep it pushing, however. It’s gonna be pushed.”

The collaborative effort, first conceived last summer amidst success of the singles “Got Money” and then “Can’t Believe It, ” has been put on the back burner since the two stopped touring together during this past winter’s “I Am Music” tour.

“He’s sending me blank tracks, I’m sending him blank tracks,” T-Pain told MTV last year as the project was in its infancy. “He’s sending me tracks with hooks, I’m sending him tracks with hooks. It’s just our hectic schedules are keeping us from recording. … But we both have studios on the bus. So we take that tour bus anywhere we go — it’s a done deal.”

While there’s no timetable on a solo release from T-Pain, Weezy, on the other hand, will be the next to hit shelves with his rock Rebirth, pending further delays.

Dallas Based Super Producers Play-N-Skillz May Sue Lil Wayne




Play-N-Skillz don’t want to sue the biggest rapper on Earth, but they have yet to receive any monies for their work on Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter III.

Play-N-Skillz produced “Got Money,” which was the third official single from Lil Wayne’s acclaimed sixth studio album.

The song featured T-Pain and peaked at No. 4 on the iTunes Top 100 and No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100.

“We haven’t gotten any compensation. We really didn’t want to speak on anything like that, just because of our relationship with Pain and Wayne. We’re more thankful for the opportunity to be on Tha Carter III, but business is business at the end of the day,” Skillz told AllHipHop.com at Sha Money XL’s One Stop Shop producers conference over this past weekend.

Skillz, one half of the production hit squad, continued, “now it is coming to where we have to put our business hat on. We had the producer and the creative hat on, but now we wanna know what’s going on.”

“Got Money” was originally for Pitbull’s album, Play said, but it was submitted a mere two days too late for inclusion on the Miami artist’s album.

“So, by the time he sent it back, T-Pain was on the hook. T-Pain had made it happen,” Play continued. “This just goes to show, where technology is going,” Skillz explained. “We had never even met Wayne. He’s in there and with us being from the South, we had seen him here and there, but that was the first time we had actually worked with him. But we didn’t actually go into the studio and work with him. Everything was third person.”

The song made the rounds and soon there was talk that the song could be going to the next level.

“Pain’s people reached out to us and they said there was a big rapper that wanted to rap on it. We wanted to know who the hell it was,” Play continued. “They said it was Wayne, they sent the files back, we changed the music on it, rearranged it and the rest is history.”

How the future plays out is unclear, but both Play and Skillz want to resolve things amicably so that all parties can continue to make music.

“We think the legal issues will be taken care of. It might not even be on his radar. A lot of people fail to realize, the artist might not even know. I’m sure that Wayne doesn’t even know or Pain doesn’t even know,” Skillz said. “It could be Universal Records, but somebody has to come with it. Give us our change, man…we need that. We got expensive tastes, baby. We’re going to continue to work and hopefully it doesn’t tarnish the relationship,” Play said. “But, if you don’t handle your business, nothing you do makes sense anyway.”

Lil Wayne on The View, Check out his Grill


OMG, I wonder what the ladies on The View had to do to prepare for this interview. Lil Wayne is actually very humble on this interview, compared to others that he has done in the past. He explains a little about his childhood but they go deep into his present and future comings.
