The Detroit Free Press has a quick interview with Robert from the Making the Band 4 group.
""We're going to go ahead and bang out this album and get ready to do what Bad Boy artists do," says a tired Curry, who celebrates his 23rd birthday next week. "It seems unreal. It just seems like a dream. It hasn't really hit me yet. It hit me when I woke up this morning and I had to get up to do two interviews with radio stations in New York. Then I had to do 'TRL' and now we're doing '106 & Park' and I just made the band yesterday. It's crazy. It's just like a dream." ...
"I couldn't have chosen it better myself. Diddy is a marketing genius. So I knew he knew what to do," Curry says. "He made the perfect pick, and he made Donnie a solo artist. That was amazing."
thestar has an interview with Diddy, relating to the launch of Unforgivable in Malaysia.
�I am completely involved in everything that has my name on it. I worked with the team of creative people on the scent and the packaging. I had them flying down to my house in Miami for smelling sessions all the time.
�When I was a kid, I used to mix different flavours of Kool Aid and create the most unique and exotic combinations. So this stuff is really in my DNA,� he said.
It looks like "Block Boy" by Yung Joc featuring Block is an iTunes exclusive track. I spoke with someone that has both the Best Buy and Circuit City editions and neither one has "Block Boy". The fact that it's on iTunes and not on those would most likely have to mean that it is an iTunes exclusive bonus track. So, if you want it, be sure to buy the album on iTunes.
You can listen to snippets of "Let's Get Physical" at HMV. It's not in English, but just scroll down to the links with speakers and click on the text to the right. A media player will open and you'll be able to cycle through the tracks.
24HourHipHop.com has some, if not recent, interviews with assorted Bad Boy artists that are worth reading. Check them out:
Gorilla Zoe
Yung Joc
Elephant Man
Boyz N Da Hood
It looks like it did. See here. If you search, you can find import copies at other stores and on eBay and so on. It looks like, even though it go pushed back in the U.S., it got released in Japan. I've placed an order and will have more if it ships/when I get it.
I've got a phone interview with Elephant Man tomorrow (Thursday, August 30) at 3:30 PM ET. What would you like me to ask him? If you have any questions, please throw them out there (as many as you would like) and I'll be glad to ask them if I can. Thanks!
Newsday has a review of "Hustlenomics".
Yung Joc, like a lot of today's rappers, seems to have put together his new album "Hustlenomics" (Bad Boy South/Atlantic) the way politicians craft their campaign platforms - a little bit of this, a little bit of that, and a whole lot of pandering.
Yung Joc was on TRL today. They talked about pranks on Screamfest. When they first did the tour, T.I. told Joc that he was gonna be the prankster, so watch out. They caught T.I. sleeping in his dressing room, put shaving cream on his hand and put something on his head, making him slap himself, getting shaving cream on his face.
Joc and T-Pain got Ciara by putting mustard packs in her shoes. Ciara was doing an in store and some little girl told her she had yellow stuff coming out of her shoe, according to Joc. He said that he needs to get T-Pain and Lloyd back, though, because his security let them in his hotel room (he said he'll after to fire his security) and he woke up with a toothpaste hairline.
They talked about the MSG show. Joc called it a "phenomenal moment for hip hop". After watching Chamillionaire's "Hip Hop Police" video, they asked him what he thought of it and he said it looked like Chamillionaire took some tips from the "Coffee Shop" video (as far as playing different characters).
They talked about what hustling is (and the difference between a hustler and a player), the album and the "Coffee Shop" video. A funny moment was when Aly (Aly & A.J. were hosting) was saying how you could buy the "Coffee Shop" ring tone and she said the wrong number and Joc said "thank you" and "have to get them checks right" and A.J. was dying. No performance for Joc on today's show, but some good face time, anyway.
The Real takes a funny look at the famous "Don't be mad, UPS is hiring" line from the "Flava in Ya Ear" remix. Watch below.
