From Guardian, where you can read more on Snoop’s latest foray into technology:
The latest musician riding the photo-sharing bandwagon is Snoop Dogg (aka Snoop Lion), with the launch of an iOS and Android app called Snoopify Sticker Camera.
Snoop worked with retailer Upper Playground, developer 99centbrains and marketing firm Cashmere Agency on the free app, which gets fans to “take photos of your friends or environment and turn them into snoop-themed masterpieces” by adding virtual stickers.
Snoopify isn’t trying to compete with existing social networks: it shares images to Instagram, Facebook and Twitter, with fans encouraged to add the hashtag #snoopifyapp when posting their pictures, to spread the word. Some stickers are free, while others are sold in 69p packs via in-app purchase.

A Colombian man who escaped from a prison last year after he was sentenced to 60 years in prison for kidnapping, robbery and extortion, was re-arrested last weekend during a routine stop-and-search. During his time on the run, Giovanni Rebolledo underwent surgery to become “Rosalinda” and worked as a pr0stitute — the perfect woman for Mister Cee. He got breast implants and began dressing as a woman. But he didn’t get a new ID card, because that was how cops were able to identify him.According to reports, Giovanni was part of a gang that used beautiful women to seduce wealthy men into coming home with them. Once the men were at the woman’s home, they were tortured with electric shocks, beaten and forced to hand over their bank cards, pin numbers and other valuables.

Law enforcement sources tell us, Mr. Bone — real name Steven Howse — had an encounter with police at a hotel … and during the encounter, cops put his name through the system and discovered the warrants.
We’re told the warrants were issued after Bone failed to appear in court to address charges he had been driving on a suspended license.
Bone was hauled to the Lost Hills Sheriff’s station — where he was booked and eventually released on $80,000 bail.
On his way out of the station, Bone said he would “take care” of the warrants … because he “had no choice.”
He also told us Bone Thugs is putting together a new album … so, there’s that.
Gucci Mane has decided that he doesn’t want to wait until July for the next Trap House installment…..we’ll now be getting the project in a couple of weeks:
I’m not entirely sure why I’m entertaining this, but it’s certainly an entertaining enough read. Apparently, Foxy Brown is reportedly coming clean on some pretty big accusations toward Hov, according to Tattle Tailzz.
Let me first start out by saying this shit is so fucking sad…Michael Jackson has been dead for the last three years but you decided to come out with this bullshit. Read the story below.
Michael Jackson has been posthumously accused of molesting a now-famous choreographer who spent lots of time with the singer at the Neverland Ranch … TMZ has learned.
TMZ has obtained legal docs … filed by Wade Robson … in which he’s asking for money from the Michael Jackson Estate for childhood sexual abuse.
Robson — now 30 years old — has worked with top names in pop music including Britney Spears, *NSYNC, Usher and P!nk. He has also appeared on “So You Think You Can Dance.”
Wade met Michael when he was 5 years old and they developed a friendship that lasted for years. By the time Wade was 7, he went for sleepovers at Neverland and MJ’s homes in L.A. and Vegas. The sleepovers continued until Wade was 14.
Wade even performed to a Michael Jackson song on “Star Search” when he was 8 years old.
In 2005, Wade testified in MJ’s molestation trial and DENIED Michael ever molested him.
Wade’s lawyer filed legal docs May 1 asking the judge in the Michael Jackson Estate case to allow him to file a late creditor’s claim against the Estate. In the documents, Wade’s lawyer says he submitted a never-before filed complaint “for childhood sexual abuse.”
Wade’s lawyer has filed the actual complaint under seal — which means it’s not available to the public. Sources tell TMZ … the complaint specifically outlines the alleged abuse at the hands of Michael Jackson.
Wade’s lawyer also mentions a psychiatrist who treated Wade — the doctor is a leader in the field of child psychology.
Interestingly … in the 2005 molestation trial, Jackson’s former housekeeper, Blanca Francia, testified she witnessed Jackson in the shower with Wade when the boy was 8 or 9 years old.
Tyler really likes Clash Magazine, and, after letting that be known a few times, he was invited to put some of his input into their upcoming issue. I wish we had more to show you, but aside from that cover in the corner, we’ll all be waiting for the issue to be released sometime at the end of the week. You can check out more of Clash over at their website.
This breaks my heart, as Treach and Vinnie have been rapping for over 20 years as Naughty By Nature, one of the most popular and beloved rap grou’s ever. Nonetheless, Treach has released a diss record towards Vinnie called “Tall Midget” which you can listen to below.
On the song, Treach goes in.
“Don’t bite the hand that feeds you, that’s exciting, fighting / I shoulda done celebrity ghost stories for all my ghost writing / I can’t fire the owner ’cause its me and my DJ (Kay Gee)/ [you] get a grown man time out / I’m out – get my swag on eBay / Cash, I get it, grab it feel the punishment from this savage / [I’m] a legend lyrical lord call you Uncle Ad Lib.”
The remix to Doe B’s street banger “Let Me Find Out” dropped today on the new Hustle Gang Mixtape but I thought it deserved a post of its own because of its features and how good the original is.
T.I brings his Hustle Gang together for their first mixtape together, hosted by DJ Drama & DJ MLK. Hustle Gang includes B.o.B., Travi$ Scott, Trae The Truth, Iggy Azalea, Young Dro, Shad Da God and more. Tracklisting and link below.
