the second lives of rappers

with the notion that hiphop is dead and it isnt the cash cow it use to be artist are looking for other ways to make that "gwap" drake who is already a actor before he became an artist now he said after a album or two he wants to become a chef and open up his own resturant ludacris has signed a deal with a image consulting firm the handles the careers of people such as will smith peyton manning and lebron james to name a few luda said he wants to farther pursue his acting career and entrepreunerial ideas meanwhile young jeezy has a shoe deal with addias for the snowman line and fabolous signed one with reebok the deal also includes a sponsored mini tour c murder is one the wrong side of the second life he has been sentenced to life in jail 50 cent's name continue to appear for new movie roles and last but not least overly loved rapper not hiphop artist gucci mane is rumored to be in rehab and not another jail term hopefully he gets clean even though i dont like him but being drug free could be a boost in his image and make him somewhat of a role model to his ignorant fans

can someone get this man camera time

so rapper game career is like the titanic its sinking fast from his first album selling 5 million copies worldwide and the last two combined hasnt reached that number rapper 50 cent was a major part of the popularity of the game with his first album but with his ego and 50's ego colliding and 50 being the guy in charge jayceon taylor aka the game was forced to end the partnership with 50 and move on since this split in 2006 everytime the game tries to drop album he starts a beef with 50 cent in hopes of helping his own album sells i used to be a huge game fan now he is just ridiculous name drop in every song starting beefs with any and everyone for the attention and hopes to gain popularity again after jay-z had a freestyle and said game's name in it the game has went crazy acting jay fans from the audience of game and black wall street concert in london it was pathetic now he spoof the jay-z doa movement by starting his own doh death of hova in the midst of his one sided beef with jay-z he dissed 50 cent and g-unit again honestly does this guy have no life or just a male diva who wants to live in the spotlight either way if you like a name dropping rapper who only raps about other rappers and has no substance game is the artist for you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-neGZOCOsk the link to the video of him dissing jay-z fans watch the tatted up dude next to game he jammin the whole time to the jay-z tracks even mouthing off the words i think thats hilarious

old school rappers going in different directions

so the highly anticapated release of legendary artist shyne from prison is set for october 6 and in sports terms he is a free agent looking for a new contract and word is many labels want to sign him and the most interested seems to be none other than the best rapper alive jay-z to his roc nation label which has some young up and coming artist young chris wale mickey factz and j cole what better way to help there careers than have shyne on the label which would be a huge boast jay is rumored to have recently visited shyne in prison to discuss the possible deal primarily talks went well and who knows by christmas we could hear a shyne album featuring jay-z under the roc nation label in other sad news this failed attempt of career revival from being with g-unit to trying to get back with camron now seeking a record deal from the true asswhole himself diddy yes mase wants diddy to take him back its really sad he needs to give it up and become an investor or open up his own business something to stack that cheese and finally mr my block the original king of the south the face of houston hiphop scarface has unplugged his mic and retired to many legends falling victim to the kids today listening to this mess now this stuff today is not true hiphop its just catchy pop with cussing

actors helping actors

arugably two of the best actors today denzel washington and will smith are rumored to be competing for the role of president barack obama although the film is just a rumor its more than likely to be made and will smith has publicly said that this role could be the role he has be waiting for his whole career and oscar winning performance for best actor will smith desperately wants and needs this role but denzel washington is stiff competition but denzel has said he feels will smith is better suited for the role between the looks and personality similarities between smith and president obama hopefully the make the film with smith and he finally gets the oscar he has derserved his whole career

could drakes performing career be over before it really got started

early morning of august 1 drake tried performing during the young money spot during americas most wanted tour which includes young jeezy soulja boy and pleasure p doctors told drizzy to not perform because of the affects it could have on his torn acl and that another injury to his knee theres a chance that he may not be able to walk the same again or at all and guess what drizzy fell during the performance trying to dance or something instead of just sitting or just standing there this could be a major issue for the newest member of young money and young money has to be concerned his contract is reportedly 2 million dollars up front and drake owns 75% rights to his music young money makes there money off performances and merchandise so if he is unable to perform in the future he will become a very wealthy man

duo albums seem to be trendy in hiphop

dirty south hiphop artist and one of the best lyrists in the game today ludacris is trying desperately to spark the attention and interest of his label dtp distrubing tha peace by doing a duo album with labelmate shawna for those who dont know her she did that song getting some head a too short remake after word of this got out 50 cent discussed doing the same thing with eminem which would be epic so i was thinking what other dynamic duos could do this the jay and kanye lupe and common nas and jay fabolous jeezy even drake and wayne for you rap fans what do you think anymore ideas of dynamic batman and robin duos doing an album together

the end of rap legends career

the reports of the non-anticipated upcoming ghostface killah album is that he begged alicia keys and basically a no name artist named tamia the only thing she has done is a song with fabolous years ago anyway they both declined to be on the album i personally think its because career suicide he managed to get one hit wonders estelle (american boy ft kanye west) and raheem devaughn (customer) but i think i could make a album and get them on it oh and to try to revive murder inc lloyd this isnt the first part of the decline his album fishscale with a lead single featuring hit maker ne-yo was a flop sure the ignorant critics who who couldnt tell you anything about hiphop said it was lyrically a good album yet do you know anyone who bought the album me neither he really hasnt sold sense the wu tang days he really was a pioneer of hiphop i good artist who i used to like but now hes like an athlete who doesnt know when to give up maybe he should just retire or stop wasting def jam records money by making albums that dont sell
