Ludacris - Back For The First Time 1.21 Gigawetts


Download

Luda has proven time and again that he is not just a dope emceee but he's a RAPPER, even though he looks like a weak ass Young nucho with them headphones & the corny ass artwork! He goes in hard on the this one, 12 hot tracks with a crazy soulful intro that should've been a track if it wasnt a prelude to what follows... BANGERS!!!
80% of the mixtape sounds like it was dedicated to Drake, Sean, & Shawn, after Drake specifically made references to Luda's 2010 single "My chick bad" which Drake called out for copyin his "Supa Dupa" (that boring stop & pause shit) punchline flow. With tracks like "Say it to my face" Ft Meek Mill (Shawn Jay of Field Mob diss) & "Bada Boom" (Drake & Big Sean diss) I dont know how they'll even begin to pen a reply (Big Sean might be able hold his own in a reply tho...)
LUDACRIS REALLY GOES IN!!!

"ReUnion" of the greats!

Last night we had some of the greatest names in Hip Hop history in studio with us. Visiting the country for DJ Kenzhero's Party People, they were performing for the first time together along with many others who were not present. We had the privilege of chatting to them and of course getting a few bars from Masta Ace and Strick. You'll be hearing them soon on the show. Hip Hop and it don't stop for real!

#HHPN News Update

  • Jozi has finally released their album titled "Moving The City" after a series of episodes on SABC 1 with a reality show with the same title. Great idea for a build up to the album's dropping. It features 2Face, Deejay, Brick 'n Lace and promises to be a good buy.
  • SA Pop singer, J Magic (not J Namic) is currently in talks with Jay Z's Roc Nation about signing with them. He's been working on his album which will be released next year under the label should they sign. Big up to that hustle. We see you boy.
  • Eminem has been widely rumoured to be coming into SA with Lil Wayne after a few updates on his touring with him for the past few weeks. However, on his website, there is no update on whether he will land in SA or not and neither have Canoc Productions entertained/confirmed these rumours. I guess we'll find out come show time.

  • This past weekend, great Hip Hop DJ, Leeby - formally known as a resident in many Jo'burg clubs, having played at the 60's parties and well known in Sub-Saharan Africa - passed away. Many of his affiliates and admirers took to Twitter to express their sadness and condolences. We have lost another great one. R.I.P homie :'(

New Trey Songs Joint, "Trigga in Africa"

Lil Wayne disses Jay-Z


So Jigga took shots at Baby on H.A.M when he said,  "you got baby money." Now Weezy has fired back on his new track with Jadakiss and Drake, here's what he said; "Talkin’ ‘bout baby money, I gotcha baby money / Kidnap your bitch get that how much you love your lady money / I know you fake, nigga / Press your brakes, nigga / I’ll take you out, that’s a date, nigga / I’m a grown ass blood, stop playing with me / Play asshole, and get an ass whippin’ / I think you pussycat, hello kitty.”
Apparently Lil Wayne is not looking for all out beef, but I think thats where he's headed.

How I was kicked out of Bacinis

So I decide to grab breakfast with shorty at Bacinis in Cresta Mall today, we order omlettes and both arrive with hair in em, this I discover at the end of my meal... The manager plays it down by explaining that its the hair off the mushrooms, "perhaps from one of his two mushrooms." This is how a twitter follower put it, lol!
When I get my card out to pay for the meal they offer to pay for our drinks and not the food. Now I dont bout you but to me this is a "straight up in-your face insult. I subsequently refused to pay for the meal, this is when the owner told us to leave his shop, imagine my shock!
What i'm tryna say is; don't eat at Bacinis Cresta Mall!

Black Eyed Peas Split...Focusing on Solo Careers


The Black Eyed Peas are going on an indefinite break from making music together.
The group broke the news from the stage during a gig at Alton Towers in Staffordshire earlier this week - scroll down and click below for footage of the announcement.

Fergie broke the news last week in England, when she told the crowd at Thursday’s Staffordshire show it was "a very special night." Why?
Because it’s the "last time we’re going to be in England for a long time," she said. The Black Eyed Peas have a history of sabbaticals - their last one was from 2005-2009, and Fergie reassured fans that the band isn’t breaking up, just taking a indefinite break. "This isn’t going to be the last time you’ll see us," she said.

Confirmed will.i.am on Twitter :
The @Bep will take a break after the beginning...just like we did from monkey business to the e.n.d...but it doesn’t mean we stop creating.
