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.

A while back I told y'all about an e-mail several gossip sites were receiving from "Jay-Z's ex" named Katrina. She e-mailed folks telling them she is still with Hov and Beyoncé is simply his side dish. Chick was clearly on full-out stan mode from the get. She went into detail about their relationship and her undying love for him--all of which was in her crazy-ass head.
This chick has now brought this foolishness to Dr. Phil. She went on his show yesterday and claimed the letter she sent out to the gossip sites was false, but her love for Hov isn't. She says she has called him over 300 times and e-mails him 200 times a day. And Katrina says she could give a damn about Beyoncé...because when Hov meets Katrina, he'll want her. This chick even told Dr. Phil:
"To me, I am Beyoncé. I am every man’s dream. I’m accomplishing it by just looking in the mirror and saying, ‘Jay-Z’s going to be my man'."
And, that upon hearing of rumors that Jay-Z proposed to Beyoncé, not only did she snap and tore all his pictures up, but also that:
"I want to see Beyoncé and Jay-Z one day in public and just go there and snatch her weave out.”
Chick takes Stan to a whole new level Fam. Get the full article here (including her getting sonned by Dr. Phil) here. Watch ya shit Hov.
Check out Dr.Phil

Jay-Z - Press Conference
Jay-Z has reportedly sold his Rocawear clothing line to the Iconix Brand Group Inc for $204 million in cash.
According to Reuters, Iconix, the owner of brands such as Joe Boxer and Candie's, chose to acquire Rocawear to diversify its portfolio of brands and raise its 2007 earnings outlook. The company expects Rocawear to generate about $43 million in royalty revenue in the first 12 months under its fold.
As part of their agreement, Jay-Z (born Sean Carter), will continue to be chief creative officer of Rocawear and will also retain his stake in the operating company. Hov's partners, Alex Bize and Norton Cher, will continue to run the company and enter into a long-term license agreement with Iconix.
Also as part of the deal, Iconix will also enter into a separate joint venture with the Brooklyn bred rapper to establish a new brand management and licensing company to identify brands to be acquired or developed
Rocawear made headlines last year when the clothing line was accused of using dog fur on one of its jackets. The brand is also facing a trademark and copyright infringement suit filed by former WWE superstar Diamond Dallas Page.
Page claims Jay-Z illegally adopted his trademark hand gesture, the "Diamond Cutter," and sold Rocawear merchandise displaying the hand symbol.

I just received this email from a loyal reader, M. Watts:
Inform your readers that Beyonce is expressing her pain on her B-Day Cd. The name of the song is called "Resentment". It tells all about her Pain with Jay-Z!! You have a great site!
This email intrigued me. So I looked up the lyrics online since I don't have Bee's CD, and, what do you know?
I wish I could believe you,
and I'll be alright
but now everything you told me
really don't apply to the way I feel inside
loving you was easy once upon a time
but now my suspicions of you are multiplied
and it's all because you lied
I definitely believe Bee wrote this song from the heart. What do you think?
