You may remember the first track Midas released with Bear Witnez, Pro’Verb, Lyriciss & WHITEFOLKZ entitled ‘Highlander’ a few months back. Today, he returns with a new record featuring 3030DMP, Villian Style, Mo Betta, Muggsy Malone & SmCity.

TMZ reports:
2 Chainz’ tour bus was carrying two semi-automatic pistols, a 12-gauge pump shotgun, plus prescription painkillers and weed paraphernalia before the rapper’s arrest last month … this according to official police documents.
As we reported, 2 Chainz and ten other people on his tour bus were arrested two weeks ago following a concert in Oklahoma City … after police accused them of smoking weed on board.
Cops pulled over 2 Chainz’ bus because of a busted taillight, but when they approached the vehicle … cops say they smelled pot and attempted to search the bus. 2 Chainz and co. refused to let cops on board, so the bus was towed to a police yard while a search warrant was obtained.
Hours after the traffic stop, the bus was finally searched and all of its occupants (including 2 Chainz) were placed under arrest for interfering with police. The results of the bus search weren’t disclosed, until now.
According to the search report, police confiscated the following: metal marijuana grinders covered in residue, marijuana pipes, Rx meds (Hydrocodone and Flexeril), rolling papers, scales, a semi-auto Sig Sauer SP2340 pistol, a Mossberg model 500 12-gauge pump-action shotgun, and a semi-auto Glock pistol.

Although his twitter account has gone private, FSD thankfully screen-capped his response to the controversial lawsuit naming him in a “money-hiding scheme”.
Telegraph Reports:
Richard Thomas knew the woman had another illness but was unaware of the HIV, Liverpool Crown Court heard.
When the 27-year-old was told she had the disease, he collapsed in “shock” and asked to be taken to hospital for tests to see if he had contracted the virus.
Thomas, of Sandringham Drive, Leigh, pleaded guilty to raping the woman on July 20 this year.
He had let himself into her home uninvited in the middle of the night and she awoke to find him raping her from behind.
“She froze and no words were exchanged. He pulled up his shorts and left,” said Harry Pepper, prosecuting.
“He was arrested and interviewed and said he had been drinking heavily, taken cocaine and ecstasy and could not recall the incident,” he added.
His barrister, Virginia Hayton, that he still cannot recall the attack but when told about it he said that the woman “would not lie, she tells the truth. If she says I have done it, I have done it.”
Jailing him for five years four months Judge Mark Brown said that he had committed “this dreadful offence” while she lay asleep, having taken a sleeping tablet, and left her distressed and anxious. He ordered him to sign the Sex Offenders Register for life.
Miss Hayton said that Thomas, who has previous convictions but none for sexual offences, “is remorseful and cannot understand why he did it and it is troubling him.”
She said that he started using cannabis at the age of nine, drinking heavily at the age of 11, addicted to ecstasy and cocaine at 13 and was put in care the following year.
He has been trying to contact his family but they want nothing to do with him and he will now be away from his partner and their young daughter and his two other older daughters from previous relationships.
Miss Hayton told the court that Thomas will not find out the result of his HIV test until Friday and has had the worry of the outcome hanging over him.
“It is his own fault, if he had not committed this offence he would not have placed himself in this position.”
“Hang Wit Me” was a big summer hit (it should have been bigger) but we didn’t get the CDQ version until today, when P. Rico’s Welcome To Puerto Rico mixtape went on iTunes untagged. Support him and go get that.

Wale finally gets the green light to release the visual for his single Clappers which features Nicki Minaj & Juicy J off his album The Gifted which is in stores now. You know it was only right for Wale to find a rack of ladies with big butts for the video so you may not want to watch this at work. Produced by Mark Henry.
A few months back , Admire Andrea aka Kat Stacks announced that she was releasing a her book ” Surviving Savagery to Saving Lives,” which details her life from a child prostitute to how she turned the hip hop industry upside down. Kat Stacks’s book is set to hit the stores on October 15 2013.

Lamar Odom’s drug dealer told Radaronline, that he has smoked more than $50,000 worth of cocaine in the past three years – including one wild binge before an NBA game just six months ago .
From RadarOnline.com:
When asked if he’d ever eye-witnessed Odom smoking or freebasing cocaine, the man recounted one instance when he said the E! reality star was higher than a kite.
“Specifically, I want to say [it was] February of 2013,” he said. “He was in New York. For other reasons, I don’t really want to give the specific location of the place … sounds weird that I want to keep a level of discretion at this point, but, he was in New York. He comes to New York a lot.”
Shockingly, the dealer claimed that cocaine spree actually took place before the Clippers’ 14-point win over the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden on Feb. 10.
Odom played 22 minutes in the subsequent game, scoring two points and snaring seven rebounds and five assists.
“I know it for a fact because I sold him the stuff and saw him smoke it,” the man said. ”He spent about 16 grand.”
“In one sitting?” Radar probed.
“More or less, yeah,” the dealer responded. When quizzed what $16,000 would get Odom, the man flatly stated: “It gets you pretty f**ked up.”

Miley Cyrus, Music News
In a clip from an upcoming MTV documentary, Miley says Robin Thicke planned to “make history” with their performance at the VMA’s, and she defends her set by saying it no differnt then what Madonna and Britney have done in their past shows.
I don’t pay attention to the negative because I’ve seen this play out so many times; how many times have we seen this play out in pop music? Madonna’s done it, Britney’s done it. Anyone that performs, that’s what you’re looking for, you’re wanting to make history. Me and Robin, the whole time, said, “you know we’re about to make history right now?” They’re over thinking it. You’re thinking about it more than I thought about it when I did it.
TMZ Reports:
Lupe Fiasco is in cahoots with a convicted drug kingpin — hiding millions of dollars from the drug lord’s estranged wife to screw her in the divorce … this according to a new lawsuit.
Fiasco is a big-time rapper … who’s being sued by the estranged wife of convicted drug kingpin Charles Patton, who’s currently serving a 44-year prison sentence for running a heroin enterprise.
According to the suit, Patton’s estranged wife believes Fiasco conspired with the drug kingpin to move more than NINE MILLION DOLLARS into various bank accounts in an effort to block her from making a play on the cash in their ongoing divorce.
It’s pretty complicated stuff — but Patton’s wife believes she’s uncovered the money trail … and it went through Lupe. Now, she’s suing to get what she claims is rightfully hers.
Lupe’s lawyer tells TMZ … Inita’s allegations are baseless and will be proven false at trial. Adding, “There are no secret accounts and no illicit instructions.”
I’m not a recreational drug-person. With that said, everyone out there has seen how popular “Molly” has become, although it would seem like this is just a new wave of popularity of Ecstasy. After the deaths of two people during New York’s Electric Zoo festival over the weekend, allegedly from Molly, Dance DJ and producer Proper Villains’ posted his safety guide to doing Molly on his Facebook page. I’m posting an abridged version here too, because this is something important that people should take a look at so they know what they’re doing. This is close to me because I have a few friends who like to get a little wild with Molly every once in a while, and some of these same people were at Electric Zoo. The one thing I would like to add to his guide is that “Molly” doesn’t mean pure Ecstasy, don’t be stupid. Anyways…Read the whole thing below
Let’s have a frank discussion about RESPONSIBLE drug use. Again, I must re-iterate that I’m neither pro or anti-drug, but if you CHOOSE to do drugs at EDM events I think you should have the knowledge of how to do so in a safe & responsible manner.
The idiots guide to molly:
“Molly” is street slang for 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine or “MDMA” for short. It’s an amphetamine derivative & works by stimulating the serotonin “feel good” pathway in the brain, the same pathway that get’s stimulated (to a lesser extent) by running, having sex or eating dark chocolate.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MDMA
Rule #1 Make sure what you’re doing is actually MDMA.
Since MDMA is illegal in most civilized countries it is made in illegal laboratories with questionable quality control. Many of the substances pedaled on the street aren’t even MDMA. They can range from other amphetamine derivatives such as MDA (3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine) to straight up crystal meth.Buy from somebody you know and trust. Do not buy drugs at an event, EVER. Don’t take free drugs from anybody. That guy/girl with the furry backpack you met at the festi
offering you a key bump is probably well intentioned. Who knows what s/he is actually giving you.TEST YOUR STUFF.
Dance Safe sells testing kits. They are a little pricey, but $65 is cheaper then a funeral. If you’re stuff comes up as not MDMA or adulterated THROW IT AWAY.
http://www.dancesafe.org/products.
Rule #2 Don’t mix your drugs. MDMA has been through some basic clinical trials and has been proven to be relatively safe to use in a clinical setting BY ITSELF. The ridiculous cocktails of MDMA/alcohol/methamphetamine/acid/mushrooms/cocaine/etc that some people take at parties have not been tested and I would venture to say are terrible for you mind and body.
If you’re on psychiatric pharmaceuticals like prozac, paxil, adderall, or whatever SSRI du jour is being prescribed like
candy to the high school/college attending public you should not do MDMA because there will probably be some sort of interaction.You specifically should not drink alcohol if you’re going to be dancing while on MDMA because it’s dehydrating, which leads us to rule 3.
Rule #3. STAY HYDRATED. Most ecstasy deaths are from over-heating/dehydration. So if you’re dancing you
need to drink water, keep yourself cool and take breaks.How much water? About 16oz every hour should do. Don’t over do it, if you start chugging water like it’s going out of style you can just as easily give yourself water poisoning (don’t laugh a couple of people a year die this way). Asshole promoters sometimes charge $5 a bottle for water, so buy one bottle and re-fill it in the bathroom. Getting some gatorade in there is probably not a bad idea either.
How cool? Jeans & a T-shirt should be fine. Tank top is better. Take the furry hat off. It makes you look like a douche bag anyways.
How often? Take a 10 minute break every hour and sit down in a cool, well ventilate area.
Rule #4 Take care of your brain. MDMA uses up a lot of the serotonin your body naturally produces. This is the reason
a lot of people get a “molly hangover” for a couple of days after a party. You can mitigate this adverse affect by taking 5-HTP, an over the counter seretonin pre-curser. 200mgs a couple of hours before you roll & another 200mgs after you come down should be about right.http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=5-htp
Rule #5 Be responsible. Have a designated driver (whose sober) and who will keep an eye on you at the party. Don’t eat the whole bag like a retard. Take a little bit, see how you feel after 45 minutes/hour and then take a little more. Don’t stay up for days at a time like some crackhead, when the sun comes up go home and go TO BED.
Anyway. That’s my piece. Rant over.
