Hit-Boy Finds Hard Drive With Nas feat. Frank Ocean "White Jesus" Song
Posted by: Cliff Po |
Sweet Anglo Jesus. If you were all excited a few months ago to hear the Nas and Frank Ocean collaboration produced by Hit-Boy, chances are you got your hopes up for nothing. Once the album was released, it was later revealed that the G.O.O.D Music in-house producer had lost the hard drive which contained the session of Nas “White Jesus” record featuring Frank Ocean. Well, as fate would have it, Hit-Boy’s manager Ricky Anderson (Kanye’s cousin) managed to somehow find the storage unit. Does this mean we’ll be hearing the track finally? Let us pray.

Posted by: Cliff Po |
In news that can only be deemed the most tragic of tragic, various sources are confirming that singer Natina Reed from R&B group Blaque (center) was killed in Atlanta late last night (October 26th).
Details remain sketchy at present, however a number of notable Atlanta figures state that Reed died after being hit by a car as she crossed the street. The car in question is said to have then sped off.
Reid, who is survived by 10 year old son Tren Brown (whose father is rapper Kurupt), was just 32.
The tragedy will see many look to the untimely passing of TLC’s Lisa ‘Left Eye’ Lopes – who many will remember championed Blaque upon their debut in the late 90′s. Lopes died, aged 30, in a car accident in 2002.
Tomorrow would have been Reid’s 33rd birthday.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Natina’s family and friends.
Chief Keef Faces Return to Jail Over Pitchfork's Gun Range Video
Posted by: Cliff Po |
It looks like Chief Keef might be in trouble with the law again. The Chicago Sun Times report that he could face time in juvenile detention for violating his probation, which stems from his 18-month probation sentence for pointing a gun at an officer.
Prosecutors say that the violation occurred during his interview/freestyle session with Pitchfork at a gun range. In the clip, Keef can be seen holding and firing weapons. His probation "bans him from having any guns or illegal drugs or associating with gang members," the Sun Times reports.
A hearing will be held next month to determine if Keef did indeed violate his probation.
