This Week's Popping or Floppin Video- Yung Jock..Plus, In Atlanta, Being In Love With a Stripper Can Get You Killed!!

Happy Tuesday Family,

We got a new popping of floppin video this week. It’s from Yung Jock featuring Marques Houston and Trey Songz. I got to shout out the highly popular Thumbs Up restaurant where this video was shot. If you want some good ass breakfast with the big cup of lemonade or sweet tea, and want to be served by some sexy ass sistas, then you need to stop by Thumbs Up on Edgewood. Tell them Gyant sent you, they love me over there.

573 Edgewood Ave SE
Atlanta, GA 30312
(404) 223-0690

The song is aiight. It doesn’t sound any different then any other slow rap song out their. For Yung to be trying to drop that second album he might want to come a little harder then this.

No disrespect to Joc but why does he look like a turtle to me? If you’ve ever seen “The Never Ending Story” they had this big ass turtle in the movie (am I showing my age) and to me he looks exactly that. Aiight, Aiight enough with the school yard bullshit here’s the video. It’s not a bad one! Tell me what you think!

Ladies y’all better be careful where you slide down them poles. A woman died early Saturday after being shot in the leg inside Platinum Club 21. I used to go the spot all the time but they be having TOO much drama for me. In August, 32-year-old Jermaine Wright was fatally shot after an altercation with a dude outside the club.

When I go out to a strip joint I like to get my look on, sip on some drinks and feel on the occasional booty. But at Platinum you betta have your gat or it could be a muthafuckin problem. My heart goes out to the family. My homeboy who works there was reluctant to give me her name So, I’ll just call her phatty because I heard she had a Phat ass. Phatty R.I.P.

DJ Drama

DJ Drama and DJ Don Cannon were arrested on Tuesday night (January 16) after police raided their office.

Both 28 year-old DJ Drama (born Tyree Simmons) and 27 year-old DJ Cannon (born Donald Cannon) were arrested in a raid on the Gangsta Grillz office in downtown Atlanta last night and charged with the making and selling of illegal CD's. According to Fox 5 Atlanta, the arrests follow an investigation by the RIAA of Drama's "Gangsta Grillz" operation, which include the distribution of his signature mixtape series of the same name.

The Fulton County Sheriff's Department S.W.A.T. team along with metro law enforcement raided the office and recording studio on 147 Walker Street in Atlanta and arrested 17 people including both Drama and Cannon. Authorities reportedly seized at least 50,000 CD's from the location, which will first be put into evidence before being destroyed. Authorities also confiscated recording equipment, bank statements, cash and even vehicles.

The self-proclaimed "iPod King" recently cleaned up at Justo's 10th Annual Mixtape Awards, taking home four trophies including "Mixtape DJ of the Year." Drama, who is also known as the official DJ for T.I's Grand Hustle imprint, is currently working on an official "Gangsta Grillz" album due out on Grand Hustle/Atlantic. Last year Drama also signed a partnership deal with Asylum records for his Aphilliates Music Group.

Gail and Kurupt

Word has it that Kurupt and his wifey to be Gail Gotti are working on a new album together called Fatal Attraction. It's supposed to drop this summer. A hip hop couple duet album? Hmmmm. Kurupt has some new music and vids on his myspace page.



?uestlove recently gave some details to media sources about The Roots' new album. They hope to drop in October of this year or February of next year. In an interview with Billboard,?est said:

"We are using a lot of synthesizer, but I don't know if I could call this the electronic album or not. Pretty much five or six songs are done, and four of them are synth-heavy."

The Roots are nominated for 2 Grammys (including Best Rap Album) and are throwing a pre-Grammy party ft. Akon, Lupe, and Jill Scott.


A party went down last night in NY for the Cherry Coke Debut of the new can design by Jay-Z's Rocawear :



Hov and Diddy



Cuba and Zab Judah



Hov and Fab



Mr. Bentley and Brian Michael Cox



Spillz and DJ Nice


Today is the 7th anniversary of the death of Big Pun. R.I.P.

*SOHH Soulful is now updated numerous times a day. Check back throughout the day for that new hotness.*

Fantasia takes it there on the new cover of Vibe Vixen.



I don't know y'all. This is the second page I am seeing that Fantasia took from Kelis' book. I give her props for not being afraid to do the blonde thing. But the cut, then the blonde is almost following Kelis' blueprint to the letter.

I am not saying she went out and deliberately copied Kelis. I am just saying that it reminds me of what Kelis did. Especially seeing as Kelis was on the previous cover of Vibe Vixen.

Currently Fantasia is #68 on the Billboard charts after only 5 weeks. It debuted at #19.

I guess since the album ain't selling and J Records is now focused on Jennifer Hudson, Fanny will need a hood boy to take care of her. Any takers. Anyone. Anyone.


I talk shit, but that voice is sweet as fuck.

Feb 8 2007 North Auditorium Minneapolis, Minnesota

Feb 9 2007 Cincinnati Music hall Cincinnati, Ohio

At any rate... Fantasia's cd is banging. It's not getting a lot of burn commercially as I predicted long before it was released. Never the less there is some hot production on the cd. (((kwame did it!)))

What must have the rest of that photo reel looked like if that is the shot they chose for the cover. Head over to Bitter Vibes to get her take on this issue.
