Hip-Hop Round-up: The Buzz on Game, Lupe, 50 Cent and more

Posted by Team Swag On January - 30 - 2010 Comments Off

News and notes on hip-hop movers and shakers.

8-Ball and MJG will drop their new album, Ten Toes Down, on T.I.’s Grand Hustle label on April 6, 2010. Eightball says that, “‘Ten Toes Down’, in my opinion, is one of the best Eightball and MJG albums ever. It’s a heart-felt, soul-filled portion of the lives of Eightball and MJG. Eightball and MJG sounds and feels like Eightball and MJG on this album fa sho.” I’ll believe it when I hear it.

Lupe Fiasco spent as much time debunking rumors of a relationship with Jessica Biel as he did trying to solicit help for Haiti. Which begs the question, “Why do people still get paid to speculate on celebrity romance?” After denying the rumor, Lupe sort of left the door open in case opportunity comes calling in the future: “She definitely surprised me as far as how good and honest of a person she is. I do rock with her.” Well played, Lu.

The Game has had his own issues with guns, but that didn’t stop him from scolding Washington Wizards’ Gilbert Arenas for bringing firearms to the locker room. Pot, meet kettle.

50 Cent‘s Before I Self Destruct has finally reached gold status, even though it only sold 372,000 copies to date. The RIAA is weird like that.

Hip-Hop for Haiti shows rap culture’s power in numbers. I applaud Jay-Z, Rihanna, and co for stepping up big on “Stranded (Haiti Mon Amor).” I can tell that they whipped it up in 10 minutes, rehearsed it once at Jay’s loft and debuted it the next day. It’s the thought that counts, right?

Ludacris had everyone excited when he announced he would battle female rappers on his new album, Battle Of The sexes. Then we found out he was battling Nicki Minaj and Ciara. It’s typical of Luda to pick the battles he’s capable of winning.

Now that I’ve heard Nas and Damian Marley‘s “As We Enter,” I’ll go out on a limb and state that Distant Relatives probably exists.

Hip-Hop Round-up: The Buzz on Game, Lupe, 50 Cent and more originally appeared on About.com Rap / Hip-Hop on Saturday, January 30th, 2010 at 14:20:45.
