Rap's Most Embarrassing Moments
Fresh off the Rick Ross fuckery, Complex has an interesting article here with the rap's most embarrassing moments. Let the humiliation begin...
Detox coming before the end of the year (he hopes)
In this USA Today piece, Dr. Dre says:
"I'm just now — over the last couple of months — starting to feel that it's going to be right and it's something I can be proud of, and everybody is going to love it," says Dr. Dre (aka Andre Young). "In a perfect world, I'm shooting for a November or December release."
Dre's $350 headphones hit stores this Friday.
Ludacris - Put On Freestyle
I usually reserve freestyles for the right side, but Luda drops a relevant line from my past weekend:
"I got the money in my palms like I called them Maloof, 'cuz I gotta make myself clear like a bottle of Goose." <---- Vegas baby.

Snoop Dogg leads Johnny Cash remix disc
Snoop Dogg remixing Johnny Cash? The Man in Black must be spinning in his grave...however:
The project was approved by Cash's son, John Carter Cash, who says his dad "would have loved this remix record. While it stays true to the original recordings, this CD touches on undiscovered ground. This is what my father was about: staying true to tradition while creating groundbreaking new music."
