GMA Cancels Drake’s Central Park Concert
I guess his popularity is starting to affect him adversely…can’t be too mad at the reasons… ::shrug::
From NY Daily News:
ABC decided not to book the 23-year-old Canadian rapper for a July 16 show in Central Park after the NYPD told the city Parks Department that Parks’ security plan wasn’t up to snuff, Parks and police sources said.
If you can recall (which should also bring you better understanding on the issue), he tried to throw another outside concert at the South Street Seaport, which was abruptly canceled after 25,000 unruly fans who showed up to hear the rap phenom tossed chairs, bottles and flowerpots. Go figure.
I’m Not Really Advertising, But…
If I can put up a post of 50’s ‘anti-Diddy’ petition‘, it’s only fair I show that Rick Ross is selling shirts based off of his hit ‘B.M.F.’ single. You can get them at his Blowing Money Fast website.

Yelawolf x Gucci Mane In The Studio
Both of these artists are absolutely grinding right now…I’m glad to see both Yelawolf continue his rise in hip-hop and Gucci Mane spreading out his collaborations with so many different artists (such as Talib Kweli). Check out these pictures, courtesy of Karen Civil (if you couldn’t already tell by the name of the pics themselves).

Khujo Goodie Quietly Gets 2 Years In Prison?
WTF kind of horrible news is this? Reported by Illseed:
I don’t know how this got past the entire internet but Khujo Goodie of the Goodie Mob has been sent to jail for two years! I don’t know why, but several people confirmed it, including Cee-Lo, DJ Greg Street, Sleepy Brown, Big Rube and others that are affiliated with the Dungeon Crew of the 90s. Big Rube said, I wanna send out nothin but love to my folk Khujo. He didn’t deserve no damn 2 years. To Khujo the realest G I’ve ever met.” Damn, that effectively KILLS the damn Goodie Mob reunion that we were all looking forward to! Damnation! A person identifying them self as Cee-Lo on Twitter has reportedly said that he won’t rap anymore until Khujo is out of jail. More singing from Cee-Lo.
But I’m saying tho…what could he have done to get him 2 years? As much as they are stating it as fact, I’m hoping it’s not true..
