Lil B (@LILBTHEBASEDGOD) – BGYCFMB (Video)
Another Lil B Video. If you can’t figure out what “BGYCFMB” stands for you must not know a lot about Lil B…
Zaytoven (@ZaytovenBeats) – Radio (Mixtape)
DJ Showtime dropped this pretty good compilation mixtape with Zaytoven the other day. The tape has a lot of the Atlanta-based producer’s tracks from the past year that were overlooked as well as some hits. Check out tracks from Gucci Mane, the Migos, Young Scooter and more. This is all to promote some Zaytoven Radio app, but I don’t know much about that.
Chuuwee (@EL_Ch3z) – Kamikaze (Video)
Some new Chuuwee that knocks, but when did he start this trap-rap shit. Not sure how I feel about that. Although I do like rappers that can actually skate (Lil Wayne doesn’t count). This is from his Trill mixtape that I totally missed a few weeks ago.

Ab-Soul Breaks Down ‘Christopher DRONEr’
This is taken from his recent interview with XXL, which you can read in full here.
“Actually just me and my homies, we was just looking further into the case, the situation at hand,” Ab-Soul told XXL. “I think the whole situation was very open-ended. Definitely no disrespect to Trayvon Martin or a lot of the things that have been happening along those lines. But I kinda just wanted to make sure we didn’t completely just forget about the situation.”
As for the timing of the record, the rapper explained, “I wrote it back when it happened, but we finally got around to putting it out.[I] felt like it was a good time. Because I haven’t heard too much more about it. I haven’t heard these conversations so I felt like it was a great time to put it out. Just don’t forget this happened not too long ago. That was pretty crazy. We don’t really know [what happened]. I really looked into it because it was really heart felt. Even still the whole case is really open-ended.”

Gucci Mane Sued For Allegedly Double-Booking Shows
From TMZ:
Empire Entertainment filed a lawsuit against Gucci — real name Radric Davis — claiming it paid him $22,500 to perform in Little Rock, Arkansas on November 22nd … but didn’t get their money’s worth. Here’s why:
Empire says prior to the gig, a nightclub in Tennessee began advertising a Gucci show for the same night — and says Gucci himself promoted it on Twitter.
Empire says it called Gucci’s people — who assured them, no TN gig was happening.
But the night of the concert, Empire says it became clear Gucci’s people lied … claiming the rapper only performed 3 songs (15 min of stage time) and then hightailed it 138 miles to perform at the other club. Then drove back to stay in the hotel Empire provided.
Empire says Gucci’s 2nd gig torpedoed their ticket sales. The company is suing for breach of contract and fraud. It wants all the cash it spent on his fee, hotel, travel and promotions.
50 Cent Gets Into It With A Member Of Meek Mill’s Entourage On Stage (Video)
50 Cent enjoys snatching the MixShow Live headlines. Tonight was no different. During the G Unit listening suite featuring Kidd Kidd and hosted by 50 Cent, Meek Mill made a surprise appearance which seemed to elate 50 until he noticed someone he was not too fond of. Black Twitter (how great are they?) confirmed during my live twitter rundown that the person with Meek Mill was upcoming, and former G Unit affiliate, artist Trav who had previous tiffs with 50.
As it turns out, Trav is extended “family” of Meek Mill and has no direct affiliation with the MMG star. Meek Mill went on to explain some history that he has with 50 and why his (50) beef with Rick Ross has nothing to do with Meek Mill. Watching the video above, it’s not hard to tell that Meek Mill had no intentions on causing trouble and genuinely went to support the G Unit boss. He even premiered to new exclusives from DC3 (stay tuned). – Queen Bobbi
