50 Cent Kills Hip-Hop, Diddy Puts The "P" Back In His Name, Beanie Sigel Gets Subliminal, Mos Def Caught On Camera
Friday. 9.8.06 3:24 pm
n this week's Pulse Report, the streets are buzzing about 50 Cent killing hip-hop, Diddy pissing off you tube, Beanie Sigel taking subliminals and Mos Def's arrest getting caught on tape.
1. 50 Cent kills hip-hop? By the looks of things, your boy Fiddy is trying to Ja Rule Diddy. Not sure if it's gonna work, but considering Diddy completely butchered Pharoahe Monch's writing on "The Future," it may be worth a try. Coincidentally, the track is produced by Havoc of Mobb Deep, who is signed to G-Unit Records. Fif has a way of feuding with people his artists work with. A week after calling Diddy out, the Queens rapper is taking more shots with his DJ Whoo Kid co-signed "G-Unit Radio 22" mixtape. The lower right of the cover pictures Diddy awkwardly hugging a man from behind with a bubble that reads, "take that, take that." Whether it's sarcastic or dead honest, the CD's intro features an interesting skit in which a preacher accuses Fif of killing hip-hop.
2. Diddy pisses off youtube. Ok, Diddy has to be stopped. The meaning of up close and personal will never be the same thanks to this dude. Since beginning his Press Play campaign, the Puffster decided to hop on the youtube and myspace bandwagons to feature clips giving a glimpse of his personal life. Thus far, heads have been treated to Diddy claiming to be a Proactiv pioneer and him waking up, stank breath and all. He's also announced that he's expecting twins. Puff's latest clip has him sharing the joy of bladder relief as he pisses for the camera. "Have you ever had to take a piss real bad?" Diddy asked before pulling out his Sean Johnson, stepping to the urinal. "It's almost as good as sex. That point where you feel your bladder is gonna explode. You feel like you drunk a gallon of beer and then you finally just...aaaaauuwwwww!" Eeeeeeeeeewwwww!
3. Beans gets subliminal. You know what the game's been missing? It may just be a dose of Beanie Sigel. The self-proclaimed broad street bully hasn't released much music since rejoining the Roc-A-Fella camp at last year's "I Declare War Concert." Well, he's back. A freestyle off "Streets Is Watching," Beans' latest mixtape with iPod king DJ Drama, is currently spreading throughout the streets and the net. The Philly emcee seems to be aiming at someone here, but who? Spitting over the "Cannon" instrumental, Beans offers, "now what cause the breakup?/ when ego's collide that foolish pride coincide cause dudes to say stuff/ cause dudes to say what/ really was on their mind all the time but I'm about my grind/ fuck the fake stuff/ far from a fake what/ when the whole shit shaped up/ I was in there/ doing a year in a wake up/ niggas disappeared/ sold they soul for a Jacob." Later on Beans observes, "what I can't see clear is how u let them play us/ look man they pape up/ we aint got a paper cup/ to piss in." So who is Beans addressing?
4. Mos Def's arrest surfaces on the net. Reports popped up that the Mighty Mos Def was arrested after an impromptu performance outside the MTV Video Music Awards last week. Well, a clip of the arrest is now floating around the net. The video has Mos performing "Katrina Clap" on a flat truck when several officers suddenly hop on stage. On the clip, one officer harshly pushes Mos' hand down and has a few words with him before pushing him gratuitously. The Brooklyn lyricist showed no sign of resistance when the officer stepped on stage. The clip then shows cops putting cuffs on Mos as he reminds the crowd of Hurricane Katrina's anniversary. Fans shouted for cops to let him go as he was getting put in the cop car.
