 Coonery picked-up where it left off last night during the premiere of the VH1 reality series’ second season.
 Chrissy still doesn’t have a ring on her finger and her rapper boyfriend, Jim Jones has already lost his! Jim’s mom is wrecking havoc again; she recorded a a diss rap, “Psychotic Bitch,” clearly aimed at Jim and Chrissy. Emily is no longer willing to live without a real commitment, so she left the rapper Fabolous and set up house with her two kids. Olivia and Somaya both continue to try and figure out how to survive in the music industry. There are two new women in the mix this season. Yandy is Jones’ manager and Kimbella is a video model and the girlfriend and baby mama of rapper Juelz Santana. But three years ago, she was dating Fab. It is a detail that reveals itself at an emancipation party Emily throws to celebrate her newly single status. Hmmm… smells like drama.

Hit-Boy sits down with MTV and let them know he is very pleased with the success of his No. 1 single with Jay-Z and Kanye West. “


The crazy thing about the ‘Paris’ record is that record just came out of nowhere, pretty much,” Hit-Boy told MTV News last week. “I did other records that were talked about being singles and all types of stuff, so I was hyped over those records.” Instead, the superstar duo chose to run with “N—as in Paris,” a brash celebration of success over a bouncy beat, mashed up with Will Ferrell sound bites. Though it was Hit-Boy who came up with the initial version of the track, he credits ‘Ye with the addition of the former “SNL” funnyman. “Genius. That’s just the genius that ‘Ye is. He always comes up with these ideas that just takes music to a whole ‘nother level,” Hit-Boy gushed. “Just something that’s never been done before.”

Fat Joe Speaks Says The Gay Mafia Controls Hip-Hop

A couple of choice quotes below:

“[Hip-hop] is the greatest gay market in the world. The hip-hop community is most likely owned by gay. I happen to think there’s a gay mafia in hip-hop. Not rappers — editorial presidents of magazines, the PDs at radio stations, the people who give you awards at award shows. This is the f—ing gay mafia, man. They’re in power … So why wouldn’t a guy come out and say, ‘Yo, I’m gay’ and get that type of love? Like Lady Gaga, I don’t know if she’s gay, but she’s running with that gay s— for real. And she’s winning. It’s 2011 going on 2012. If you’re gay, rep your set.”
He continued:

“I think I’ve done songs with gay rappers. I’m pretty sure of that. I’m pretty sure the football n—-s is gay, the basketball n—-s is gay — n—-s is gay. There’s millions of gay people in the world. Girls, too. Once again, I’m not a fan of that s— either. I’m a fan of ‘Yo, I’m gay, what the f—?’ 2011, you gotta hide that you’re gay? Be real! Like, ‘I’m gay, what the f—?’ If you gay, you gay. That’s your preference. F— it if the people don’t like it.”

Here’s a new visual for Uptown X.O off his current project Monumental II. Shot in the heart of Southeast, D.C. at the intersection of Martin Luther King and Malcolm X Boulevard, with additional footage shot in the notorious Georgia Avenue neighborhoods of Northwest; this latest effort represents one of the most powerful records off his project. I feel X.O has one of the strongest project from the DMV this year.
