“I did this track without any direction. I didn’t know what she was doing for this album. I did a couple and she heard them. She actually was shocked how close I got to the sound of the album without hearing anything.”

J.Cole released Truly Yours last week, the EP featured “Stay” produced by No ID. The song also appears on Nas’ Life Is Good last year and was initially received as a freestyle. Story tells it Jermaine had the beat first and procrastinated on purchasing it. He also reveals that he missed out on Rick Ross’ “Tears Of Joy“.

Trey Songz remixes A$AP Rocky’s track. Not all that impressed (in his defense, the song was already water-down to begin with….even with a Kendrick Lamar appearance).

Spotted on That Grape Juice:
On March 9th, Justin will hit ‘Saturday Night Live’ to both host and perform in a bid to push the project.
However, in what he hope teaches his contemporaries a thing or two about promoting a project properly, he is scheduled to perform on ‘Late Night With Jimmy Fallon‘ every day of the week, for a stint beginning on March 11th and ending on the 15th.
All this, to leave no promotional stone unturned before the launch of the project- which is set for release on the 19th.

Star and Buc Wild. Couldn’t control these cats, even with Dallas Penn on deck. In a rare interview, Star shared his past, how he was an actual street pimp in New York City in the early 1980′s, how he went to war with a handgun against a Dominican chick armed with and uzi and got sprayed up, his cocaine and mescaline fueled days, how he pimped MTV, Hot 97 and Power 105, why he has no issue with Big Tigger, how he’s never been impressed with Howard Stern, his love for DJ Vlad, what his hate is really about, how he doesn’t know who the fuck Just Blaze is, how someone who doesn’t fux with Hip Hop became a Hip Hop icon and more. This was too much. Dig in my cousin.
The fact that Perez Hilton is featured in the episode probably doesn’t mean good things for Chris Brown (as far as what this episode might portray). Synopsis below.
A promising singer is brutally attacked by her boyfriend, a popular hip hop star. ADA Barba (guest star Raul Esparza) works to build a case, but the victim refuses to aid the prosecution and, despite Detective Benson’s (Mariska Hargitay) best efforts, continues to put herself in danger. The case quickly spirals into a media circus, perpetrated by both the defendant and his uncompromising attorney (guest star Tambor). Also starring Ice-T (Detective Odafin Tutuola), Richard Belzer (Sergeant John Munch), Danny Pino (Detective Nick Amaro) and Kelli Giddish (Detective Amanda Rollins). Special appearances by Perez Hilton, Dave Navarro and Wendy Williams.

The Only Built 4 Cuban Linx MC recently worked with the always fashion-forward Kanye West on Cruel Summer’s “The Morning,” but didn’t fully agree with one of ‘Ye’s most recent fashion choices.
“Would I rock a kilt?” Rae asked, referring the leather skirt Yeezy wore onstage for the 12-12-12 benefit concert for Hurricane Sandy victims in New York City last year. “Yeah, I’ll rock it in Ireland. I’ll rock it in Dublin. Me personally, I been out there. I had a show that day. If I woulda had one, I woulda said, ‘Yo, give me the Burberry lookin’ one.’ But I wouldn’t actually rock it onstage. Sometimes you wanna jump out the window but everybody can’t do it. So when you see these guys challenge this fashion, it’s because they feel they put it together right. And at the end of the day, that’s all you gotta look at is how you walk out the door.”
