1) 'Takers' Claims #1 Spot at the Box Office
When the numbers were first released, "Takers" was #2 to "The Last Exorcism" by about $300,000, but when the true numbers came out "Takers" was actually on top by about $150,000. Either way, in my mind, "Takers" was #1 regardless because it and "The Last Exorcism" made basically the same amount of money despite being shown in 668 less theaters nationwide. Per theater, "Takers" killed them.
And with that being said, I have no interest in seeing this movie. No real reason, just not interested.
2) Another Drake Album In 2010?
Slow down guys. It was a miracle that Drake's first album dropped at all, so let's not get our hopes up that the least album dropping label on Earth is gonna clean up its act and give us 2 in 1 year. It ain't happening. Cash Money, how about y'all focus on getting Nicki Minaj's album out this year and leave everything else alone?? Baby steps fellas.
3) Jay-Z & Yankees Team For Exclusive Apparel
And just when you thought Jay-Z had run out of ideas to make more money, BOOM! This apparel will ONLY be sold at Yankees Stadium and only through Sept. 14th. It's a damn shame I don't have family in New York anymore. Hmmm, my ex-girlfriend did tell me she's going to New York next week, though. I wonder if she'd grant me one last wish?? Fingers crossed.
Take a look at some of the goods courtesy of RapRadar. Some of that stuff would go great with the Hov "All Black Everything" Forces I don't own.
4) Full 'Dancing With The Stars' Cast Announced
Last week I told you The Situation was gonna be on the show (though I still wish it was gonna be Snooki), but here's a quick rundown of the rest of the cast:
Brandy Norwood, David Hasselhoff, Jennifer Grey, Kurt Warner, Margaret Cho, Kyle Massey, Audrina Patridge, Rick Fox, Florence Henderson, Bristol Palin and Michael Bolton.
Man, where's the Erin Andrews and Nicole Schegudgthzyrs?? What is DWTS without the hot ass??
5) Trick Daddy Working On 'www.thug.com 2'
The original 1998 classic still goes hard so thing is welcomed news. Hopefully this will help him get his mojo back, though his last album Finally Famous was pretty good. Unfortunately, there's no release date yet.
6) Ruff Ryders Records Is Now Ruff Ryders Indy
Look guys, it's over. The Ruff Ryder brand is gone, and it's never coming back. Never. Ever.
If they wanted to launch a new label, why didn't they just do it with a whole new name?? It's time to move on.
This is just a few tracks from So Far Gone and one new one (Fear). I don't really believe in EPs, but I think Drake fans are ready to buy something he's selling, especially since we don't know if his LP will drop since its being handled by Cash Money. I'm gonna go waaaay high for an EP and say it does 40-65k. I'll probably be wrong, but fuck it.
I've heard good reviews from this album, but I'll be the judge of that... well whenever I stop listening to Blueprint 3 long enough to check it out. Anyway, I don't really know where his buzz is at this point so I'll give him 30-60k.
I don't know much about this album because I don't really fuck with Boosie's music (sorry, the nigga can't rap and I hate his voice, sue me), but I know he has a pretty decent sized fanbase so all hope isn't lost. I'm predicting 15-35k.
I guess Trick really decided to go with this shitty cover even after I called the Photoshop Police on him. If he was that desperate, I would've hooked him up with something for free.
Anyway, most people don't even know this is dropping. That includes people down here in South Florida too. They aren't playing any of his songs on the radio and I've seen no promotion whatsoever. I'd be surprised if this even cracked 10,000. I'll say 4-10k
I haven't sent out the Photoshop Police since June 12, 2008! I think its time for me to bring them out of retirement!
Okay, so let start with Trick Daddy. Trick is no stranger to the Photoshop Police and if this shit above is really the cover to his new album and not a cruel internet joke, then I'm just at a loss for words. I mean look at this shit, it looks like Trick designed it himself. Some people might think the layout on my website is wack BUT I designed the whole thing myself. I have no money to pay somebody to do it for me. Now I don't know Trick's finances but I'm almost positive he can afford to get someone with some kinda skills to make something better than this shit. Its just so bad! From the wack font, to the wack font color, to the Outer Glow in the standard "ffffbe" yellow setting, to Trick's face, to the horrendous Pattern Overlay used on Trick's face. So bad, just soooo bad!
Matter of fact, fuck this, this CANNOT be Trick's real album cover. It just can't be. No respectable label or artist is gonna let some shit like this be in stores anywhere! Lets move on.
The cover of Lil Wayne's Rebirth album cover?? I doubt it! Somebody already put this shit up on Rebirth's Wikipedia page, but I say there's about a 0.1% chance this is the actual cover. I think there's a better chance that that's really Trick's cover than this actually being Wayne's cover. Some fan made this. They HAD to! There's nothing wrong with the picture, but that terrible font work had to be done by an amateur. I like the "el&font gohtic!" font, but it looks like they tried to emboss it for some reason and then used waaaay to too much size in the Stroke Blending Option. I was actually able to re-create it in under a minute (click here to check it out). Its bad when a regular person can re-create your album cover, but its even worse if they can do it in under a minute.
And wassup with the blood-like streaks coming from Lil Wayne's name?? Very weak. The fan who made this obviously had no love for their boy. I expect the REAL cover to be out soon enouh because this album is still on schedule for release August 18th.
This is supposed to be Trick's first single from his upcoming release Finally Famous: Born A Thug, Still A Thug which is due September 15th.
Trick is back!
DR is truly a sad case. This nigga just stay catching L's. At the end of the day Ross doesn't want it with Trick because no matter what you think or saw, Trick Daddy has A LOT more pull in South Florida than Ricky. DR can say he's a boss, but when it comes down to Ross vs. Trick, SoFlo is always gonna side with Trick. Trick is just that nigga down here and that's the end of it.
Bravo! Bravo!! Mark this down as the sole effective move Rick Ross has made in this whole battle! I mean at the end of the day its still like dunking on somebody with 2 minutes left in the 4th quarter when your team is down by 40. Yeah its exciting to see, but the game is still over lol.
Since we're on the subject of Rick Ross and beef, click here to check out what Trick Daddy thought of being mention in the track before this one on the album, Valley Of Death.
And finally, since Deeper Than Rap is dropping today I figured I'd post what will likely be his last freestyle for awhile.
Nigga mentioned Eminem's name again. He's just begging to get Benzino'd lol.

If for some reason you haven't heard by now, Deeper Than Rap has leaked and he's the full version of Valley Of Death where DR lightly touches on 50 Cent, Trick Daddy, and his correctional officer past.
If Lupus sounds familiar to you, its probably because that's what J. Dilla died from back in '06. I'm not saying Trick is about to die or anything, but its definitely a scary thing.
I knew something was going on with his skin though because I remember seeing a pic of him last year and he looked damn near like a different person. I always got love for Trick though, so good luck to him dealing with this shit.

Isn't is crazy that I'm not surprised they made this record?? lol. This shit is jammin' like a muthafucka, but I'm trying to stay positive today. Sorry guys.
Q-Tip Feat. Barack Obama - Shaka
This is some classic Tribe shit right here. Tip's new album is in stores today!
Charles Hamilton, Asher Roth, & B.o.B - Change Gon' Come
The new Kanye, Eminem, and Andre 3000?? I don't know, maybe. Either way Asher had the best verse.
Trick Daddy Feat. Barack Obama - Change
Its about time for a new Trick album ain't it?? Well I'm ready at least.
I'm not sure why they pushed his album back to October 14th (ain't like he's gonna do huge numbers either way), but here's a few new tracks from the boy.
Ace Hood Feat. Trick Daddy - Gutta
This shit right here is a BEAST! This is the best track I've heard from this man by FAR! I love his flow and delivery on here and this beat is a problem! I believe Goldrush produced it, but I'm not positive. It actually sounds more like Cool-N-Dre to me, but you never know since they did fall off.
DJ Khaled Feat. Ace Hood, Bun-B, Blood Raw, Brisco, Bali, Lil Scrappy, & Shawty Lo - Final Warning
I dunno if this is on Gutta or We Global (I'm leaning towards We Global), but either way Ace didn't really show up even though he was the feature artist. Brisco outshined everybody anyway because he RIPPED this shit. He kinda had a Pac flow going on but didn't sound like he was dick riding...a very thin line to walk and he did it up. Shawty Lo & Blood Raw were just terrible and their vocals definitely should've been deleted lol.
Ace Hood Feat. Flo Rida - Face Good
Not impressed.
I guess Trick is getting ready to drop some shit and I'm definitely fuckin' with this shit.
Trick Daddy - I'm The Realest (Prod. By The Runners)
Yeah I'm fuckin' with this! This sounds like that old thug.com/Book Of Thugs Trick and that's when he was at his best to me. The beat wasn't that impressive, but The Runners get a pass since Trick was ridin'.
Welp I guess that's the end of that beef. And Ross needs to just come out and admit it because we already know the truth so it ain't even a matter of opinion anymore lol.

Finally after 2, 3 months and like 1000 behind the scenes videos the Out Here Grindin' video is here! Now, I like Khaled and all BUT this was NOT worth the wait lol. Check it out and see if you agree:
Agree, disagree??
I dunno I was expecting more, this shit looked cheap as hell and extremely cheesy. I really don't see what took them so long to edit I mean the only good part was Trick's. Speaking of Trick, I thought Plies wasn't in this video and Young Jeezy took his place?? Instead we got Plies, no Jeezy, and no Wayne lol. Oh and someone tell Ross holding an umbrella and trying to look hard don't go together lol. More on Ross in a minute though lol.
Damn, it was Trick who said dude was a C.O.?? I thought it was the nigga that "photoshopped" the picture, but oh well I ain't in it lol.I don't believe Trick said that, but who knows. Whatever the case Ross runs Miami now so niggas should watch out.
I didn't know there was supposed to be a remix of Love In This Club with Mariah and Plies! Hmm, I guess you learn something new everyday. Anyway, check out ya "lil wo'" Plies talking about why they ended up going with the Beyonce and Wayne version.
