A$AP Rocky Discusses $3 Million Deal
A$AP Rocky’s got 3 million reasons to smile. In a recent interview with Pitchfork, he says that he signed with Polo Grounds after accepting a $3 million dollar deal.
Pitchfork: A lot of rappers are moving away from big record deals and, as recently as last month, it seemed like you didn’t want to sign with a major, either. What changed your mind?
A$AP Rocky: About three million dollars. [Other rappers who don’t sign] are smart, but I feel like Sony/RCA is a family and the people there actually care about me. When I came to meet [Polo Grounds Music founder] Bryan Leach, I got to know him on a personal level– he would set up car service for me to go to other labels. He wanted to see me make it. He’s from Harlem. I’m going to have creative control; there’s no bullshit. The situation is almost unrealistic. I mean, five months ago I had about $3,000 in my bank account. Now I’m worth $3 million. Nobody’s gotten a deal like that since 50 Cent.
Usher Attacked By Crazy Woman…..Over A Handicapped Parking Spot
I don’t care what you say…..that woman is nuts.
Usher was bull-rushed in the middle of a crowded parking lot in ATL last weekend — by an angry woman looking to fight the singer for parking in a handicap spot … and TMZ has the footage.
Eyewitnesses tell us … Usher had just arrived to a shopping center near the Little 5 Points Halloween Parade (hence the guy in the Elvis costume) when the woman saw U’s SUV parked in a handicap spot.
We’re told the woman demanded the singer move his car — but Usher refused and she went ballistic … screaming, flailing her arms, and grabbing Usher’s hoodie.
At one point, she screams, “You don’t belong here!”
Sources say the woman’s husband eventually dragged her away from the scene — and Usher drove away not long after.
Attempts to reach Usher’s people were not successful.
Update:
7:38 AM: A witness who was at the scene tells us … when the woman first approached Usher’s car, the singer was still in the driver’s seat with his window down … so she shook up a beer and sprayed it at him.
The witness says Usher grabbed a water bottle and splashed her back … so she kicked his driver’s side door until he exited the vehicle and confronted her.

My Wife Jean Grae – Inside The Mind Of A Jeanius
Jean Grae sits down with TheWellVersed while in Las Vegas to discuss why she performs songs that nobody has ever heard before, what’s the holdup on “Cake or Death”, how important the mixing process is to an album and how disposable music is today.
Jean Grae sits down with Andreas Hale of TheWellVersed to discuss just how uncomfortable “Cake or Death” is because of how personal it is, the art of the hip-hop love song, her sense of humor and a whole bunch of goofy outtakes with Mr. Len.
