RayGay J

kim kardashina

Young Buck > Kim Kardashian!? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Singer Ray J has publicly denied an accusation from For the Love of Ray J co-star Monica Danger that he is gay and an intimate partner of Young Buck.

Ray J appeared on T.T. Ramirez radio to clarify his issues with Danger and the reason he believes the rumor was started.

“I still got love for danger, that’s one of my peoples. But I didn’t return her calls for the last 2-3 weeks. So she threatened to say ‘I’m going to tell people you’re gay!’” he revealed. “She went along and actually did it! I’m not gay but I got love for gay people because I work with gay people…girls and dudes. I’m comfortable with my sexuality, I’m not tripping…I’m with a couple of my lesbian homegirls that go hard. They try to steal my homegirls.”

Regarding his future relationship with Danger, Ray J still considers her a friend and feels their issues will be worked out behind closed doors.

“I don’t hang with stars, I create stars,” Ray J continued. “I lent my hand to her, and I got her back even though she’s going through some things right now. Sometimes that happens with new stardom. I’m not going to leave her behind. We’re both upset with each other. But it’s ok, I’m going to work it out with her soon and we’ll be friends again. She’s just tripping right now.”

Danger, real name Monica Leon, began the Young Buck-Ray J rumors on 92.5’s Devyn’s Playground Radio.

“Ray J’s gay, I’ll tell you why on this show. Ray, I love you, I respect you, but after the two years of Danger smashed the homie t-shirts, what I had to go through first season, me being pregnant by Gabriel [Cannon], you claiming it was you everywhere on earth,” Danger stated. “You are selling me everywhere, listen ngga I’m not a pimp hoe, you’re not going to pimp me, I’m not Kim Kardashian…Ray J’s lover of years is Young Buck. I’m really mad too…Young Buck and Ray J…going strong fucking with each other for years, and Young Buck does not have 1 percent of what Ray J has and it’s like Ray J, you’re not looking out for your boy?”

On Saturday (January 9), news broke that Danger lost custody of her newborn baby girl due to documented psychiatric issues with LA Child Services.

The child is now with her father.

Furious Styles & DJ Dub Present: Jay Electronica – Victory (Mixtape) + Act I + Exhibit A & C

jay electronica

I was originally going to just post the mixtape, but this Jaylectro “situation” (whatup Jersey Shore) has turned into so much more, so I feel compelled to inform ya’ll about, *ahem* the situation.

Below you’ll see an excerpt about Furious & Dub’s mixtape tribute to Jay Elect. You’ll also find Exhibit A & C, both produced by Just Blaze. Now, it’s tough for me to agree that Jay is some sort of hip-hop savior, especially when homeboy’s turning 34 and hasn’t even dropped an album yet. What I mean is, the only real piece of art Jay’s dropped is Act I (which is on some crazy creative sh*t, as it consists of 15 continuous tracks w/ no drums, using the soundtrack from ‘Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind‘. There are five parts, marked by changes in music and mood, and occasional snippets of sampled dialogue (children arguing in Kurdish, Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka). The first segment is spoken word by Just Blaze and Erykah Badu- his wife- describing the artist over piano music); and you can download this below. So, is he the best? No. Could he be? Maybe. Either way, I’m especially amped for Act II. I need some more of this lyrical brilliancy in my headphones, like yesterday. Just read Exhibit C’s lyrics, then please try and tell me he’s not on some other sh*t..

“In the current state of music, an artist like Jay (Electronica) deserves the attention of anyone who even THINKS they like Hip-Hop. We’re not saying that he’s the savior but he’s been working on the humble for years and Exhibit C opened him up to the world. World, meet Jay Electronica…support his victory for Hip-Hop.” – DJ DUB

“I truly believe that everyman has a story and Jay Electronica’s story is definitely the current soundtrack to Hip-Hop. He makes the impossible seem possible. Dub and I wanted to share his soundtrack with those that were unfamiliar. Let’s welcome back the lyricists to Hip- Hop.” – DJ FURIOUS STYLES.

Raekwon, Ghostface & Method Man Asks YOU For Group Name

ghostface, raekwon, method man

After hearing what they did on the best rap album of 2009, all that comes to mind is ‘Maybes the Best Group Ever‘, as lame as that sounds.

Ghostface Killah has reached out to fans for help in deciding a rap group alias for his upcoming joint album alongside Raekwon and Method Man.

Writing via MySpace, Ghostface reached out to hip-hop heads for their thoughts and suggestions.

“We Need a Group Name!!!!!,” the message read last night (January 8). “Help us out! As you know Ghostface Killah, Method Man and Raekwon are teaming up for an album dropping very soon, but Meth, Rae & Ghost need a name 4 the group. Txt MethRaeGhost to 66937 to name the band! If they chose UR name U can be in the liner notes”

According to Raekwon, the long-awaited project is almost ready for retail release.

“Everything is a go from what I’m hearing,” he said in an interview. “It’s a record that’s gonna come out on Def Jam so…I really don’t have too much knowledge on it. I spoke to [Method Man] and he’s telling me by the middle of February the album should be already solidified. So, that’s what I’m hoping [is] gonna happen. We’ll see what Def Jam [will] do. I’m just coming in as a piece on the board just to really go in and do what I gotta do. But we gon’ see how they handle the business with that album…We still got more things that we wanna d o. We ain’t never wrapped. We gon’ definitely make sure that we really give y’all a tight album, and [make sure that] everybody’s opinions and criticisms account for this record.”
