0 This Could Be Epic...
“Just chillin’” with Dame Dash may have just spawned a rap supergroup project. On Wednesday, at Dash’s new facility (art gallery, TV studio, music studio and more), DD172, critically acclaimed underground lyricist Curren$y told MTV News that he, Jay Electronica and Mos Def have combined forces to start recording an entire album together. “That’s ridiculous!” Curren$y said. “Jay Electronica is from my city, he’s from New Orleans. I never met homie until I stepped foot in this building. He came here to meet Mos. And Mos, I had only known him for 24 hours prior to that. But genuine people could recognize [each other], it was like, ‘Let’s go.’ ” Curren$y said Mos came up with the name of “Center Edge Territory” for the trio. When asked exactly what the moniker means, Curren$y would only comment emphatically, “Everything! That’s everything! Here is a video from Curren$y called "Life Under The Scope". You might be able to catch this on the new collaboration album. K.I.F. Bp

0 HBO's The Wire Tought As A Class?
The hard-core gangster series on HBO, will officially be offered as a class at HARVARD next fall. It will be taught by sociology professer William J. Wilson, who is considered to be one of the best-known African American history professors in the world. From what it sounds like Harvard has a lot of students who like to keep it 100. Hopefully our very own Ali Evans (student-athlete at Harvard) will stay F.A.D.E.D and take the course next fall.

0 Music Review: Wiz Khalifa | B.A.R.
Pittsburgh’s highly acclaimed hip-hop artist Wiz Khalifa is back at it again with his new mixtape B.A.R, which are the acronyms for Burn After Rolling. The 22 year-old MC who was originally signed with major record label Warner Brother Records has since moved to independent record label Rostrum Records. This was obviously a good move for Khalifa since he and Rostrum Records have been releasing some of the hottest mixtape tracks of the year. Khalifa’s 6th solo mixtape and his latest installment B.A.R make it his second mixtape this year. While I’ve listened to B.A.R back- to- back (twice) in the last couple of days since its release, I have determined that this is hands down the best mixtape Wiz Khalifa has released. If you think you would enjoy the tales of a fast-life living individual who enjoys his Mary Jane smoke then Burn After Rolling is for you. Even if that isn’t your cup a tea you should download it anyways because I assure you he will become your new favorite rapper.

1 THE DROID : VERIZON’S TURN
What is the droid you may ask?
It’s Verizon’s new answer for AT&T’s iPhone and T-Mobile’s G1 technology. This week, Verizon drops the Droid nation-wide to expand the nation’s largest wireless carrier, as well as contribute to a mass turnaround of its manufacturer, Motorola Inc., who really hasn’t produced a big hit since the Razr phone back in 2005.
Verizon is really targeting 15-35 year olds who are highly into their gadgets for social networking, blogging and other online tasks. Now, the Droid is heavier and thicker than the iPhone, but that is because of it’s slide-out keyboard, which shouldn’t be a problem. All in all, the Droid is definitely a MUST BUY for the upcoming holiday season and should really put Verizon back on the map. If you want more information about this device, visit http://phones.verizonwireless.com/motorola/droid/.

0 Jay-Z Responds to Sigel...
First and foremost...Happy Halloween to all
No later than a day after Beanie Sigel reveals his diss track towards Jay-Z, Hov responds to the shots during a press conference in Canada. LaRueduHipHop.com captured a press conference that happened earlier today in which Hov speaks on the Beanie Sigel situation. This can get real ugly.
If you listen, the things that Jay is mentioning is true...so the call-out by Beans is questionable. But we don't know what happens behind the scense, so as this unfolds, we'll keep you updated....

2 More Shots Fired Jay-Z's Way
Hmmm....y'all I dont really gotta lot to say about this one. If you put the two rappers on a scale, Hov is definitely bigger than Beanie Sigel..regardless of the realistic weight differential.
Earlier this morning, Beans went on Hot 97 NY to premeire his diss to the one-time partner, labelmate and friend. The reasoning for Sigel's record is from the night of the September 11 Tribute Concert in which Jay-Z performed in front of a sold out Madison Square Garden. He accuses Jay-Z of calling the police on him during the premier concert of Blueprint 3 when he was spotted in the front row. He also accuses Jay-Z of keeping him tied to the label when Sigel had an opportunity to go elsewhere.
According to Sigel, Jay offered him a financial incentive to remain on the struggling label’s roster. “I told you I ain’t want your money,” he said addressing Jay-Z directly.
“But you was in a position to let me get my own money, and you couldn’t do that,” Sigel claimed.
Whatever issues remain between the two artists, who have always appeared to be very close, Sigel has made it clear that they can be resolved.
The diss record was released hours after Jay-Z and Alicia Keys performed at Yankee Stadium. So who knows...it could possibly be a World Series beef. Seeing as how Beans is from Philly and Hov is the man of NY, the Yankees and Phillies being in the World Series could've been the last straw for Sigel.
Those with a sense of humor understood the previous paragraph.
Neither Jay-Z of any of his representatives has yet to respond. Although Jay is known for giving artists the cold shoulder after a diss is thrown at him, this goes deeper than the other shots. These are two guys who had a very strong friendship and they intended on doing bigger things in the future. Unfortunately, things change. This will probably be addressed, but not in a public light.
Of the lyrics, he said, “This ain’t a green light for everybody to start making 'diss Jay-Z' records. This is just me taking my brother out for five minutes.” Their feud is reported to have originated from their Roc-A-Fella business dealings, and Jay-Z's allegedly adequate marketing of Sigel’s album in 2007.
What y'all think about this? Comment please...

2 "And I'd rather be pushing flowers, then to be in the pen sharing Showers"
Rapper Lil Wayne is facing legal problems my F.A.D.E.D people. Wayne is expected to accept an 8 month bid in jail, resulting from his involvement with a .40 Caliber loaded gun found on his tour bus in 2007, while in New York. Wayne is facing 15 years for each count of criminal weapons possession, and the possession of a loaded gun. He is rumored to accept a deal so that no long term jail sentence will be put on him, if everything goes right with the deal he will begin his sentence in February of 2010. Wayne has another trial date sometime in March over a felony drugs and weapons charges from an '08 police raid. All I personally can say is wow, and Good luck with that Wayne.

0 Adrian Peterson Shows Off His Shoe Collection
If you thought NFL superstar, Adrian Peterson's only love was for the game, think again. ESPN reporter Rachel Nichols got the chance to interview AP and take a step into his closet where he reveals to her the enormous collection of shoes that he owns. Not only does he wear a new pair of cleats (sometimes changes 'em mid-game) for every game, but he also does the same with his kick collection. Yesterday on the ESPN pre-game show, reporter Rachel Nichols interviewed All Day about his passion for kicks and took a quick look at some of the contents of his shoe closet. Keep reading to check out the clip and take a glimpse at a small portion of Peterson’s $200,000 and growing collection, including a ton of Air Jordans, Air Force 1’s and of course, his very own Trainer 1 PE’s. I guess you gotta take care of those feet, especially after all of the miles that he's put on them already!

0 T.I. on VH1's Behind the Music..Watch it Here
In their staple segment, VH1 goes back to before T.I. wanted to literally shoot up the charts, focusing on the ATL rapper's rise to big time and to the big house. Shot before T.I. began his one-year stint in jail (obviously), the episode aired on Thursday (October 8) .
T.I. spoke briefly about his early childhood growing up in the Bankhead section of Atlanta, Georgia. By the 3rd grade he had already fallen in love with music, penning his first set of lyrics. The rapper would eventually turn to the streets for guidance after his uncle (the father figure in his life) was sent to jail; and that marked the point when he turned to "hustling" and selling drugs.

2 Soulja Boy: Officially "G" With His Latest Arrest
Well let’s take a look at why this dude got arrested in the first place.
Soulja Boy was arrested this week while shooting his next music video, because he fled from cops.
The 19-year-old was filming in an abandoned Georgia house on Wednesday (October 7), when police arrived after nearby neighbors complained.
When they arrived on the scene, half of the 40 cast and crew (including Soulja Boy) fled by foot from the police. DeAndre Ramone Way, was arrested when he returned later to collect his vehicle and charged with obstruction of justice.
According to TMZ.com, that’s not all. A 9mm handgun was discovered in one of the cars during a search, although the owner of the weapon was not identified.
Yesterday (Friday October 9), Soulja Boy posted on Twitter: "To all my fans, I just wanna put this behind me! I'm not going back to jail!!"
Sorry, I hate judging people because I’m a nobody, but some of us black people have no common sense (and I mean that sincerely). What are 40 motha****as doing in an abandoned house in which they had no permit to enter in the first place?
What were they expecting? If you have 40 people on a property that hasn’t been occupied in a while, there will definitely be a person suspecting something that’s not supposed to be happening. When you got cars, girls, loud music, a camera crew, (and probably a tough stench of Mary Jane), that is not normal. So expect the police to be notified unless you’ve personally informed them about your activities.
That’s a stupid move…just show up to a random house and shoot a video with no permissions whatsoever.
I have nothing else to say on this matter because I already said I don’t like judging people. But please comment and share your opinion so I won’t feel bad about sharing mine. Other than that, the only thing left I have to say is…
Niggas.

0 Shyne's Release: Can He Come Back From This?
After nine years of incarceration from a 1999 shooting at his Manhattan party, Shyne a.k.a. Jamal Barrow will be released from prison today. A highly publicized shooting that occurred on December 27, 2009 left 3 people injured after an incident erupted over Shyne and his entourage and another group that attended the party. The 21 year old rapper faced charges including attempted murder, assault and reckless endangerment and was sentenced to ten years in prison in Summer 2001.Now we’re here in 2009 and Shyne will be released early, due to his appeal for a shorter sentence. The 5 album deal that he signed with Diddy and Bad Boy Records shortly before the incident is long gone and Shyne is now a free agent. With only 2 albums under his belt, Shyne has received looks from Roc Nation, The Inc and even bouncing back with his former employer, Diddy at Bad Boy. But these are all rumors, and Jay-Z and Irv Gotti has denied all of these statements. Regardless, Shyne will get the opportunity to meet with some of the big name companies and prove himself righteous to receive another record deal.
While Shyne was locked up, he was able to release two albums; his debut, self-entitled “Shyne”, and “Godfather Buried Alive”. Both of these releases obtained Gold Status and the rapper was able to get some acknowledgment before his rap career would’ve been forced to shut down. But people gained hope from listening to Shyne. Many compared his flow to Biggie, and fans began to stay on their toes…only to discover that he would be locked up for the next ten years.
Now with rap being as suspect as it is nowadays, nobody can tell whether or not the rapper next song will make any sort of impact to the game. Many believe that the flow that he possesses (or once possessed) has been buried in the game and the subjects that he spoke about are no longer accepted by fans anymore.
Example, any lyrics that may refer to guns and shooting might not be the best idea for Shyne to spit. Shyne was truly nice lyrically, but his lifestyle from his younger days can no longer be praised due to the fact that it got him in enough trouble. He will have to be careful if he wants to obtain a respectable fan base again. He will also have to gain some good publicity because these are one of the few rappers you see get locked up for what they rap about. Any type of speaking with youth or trying to prevent gun violence would allow him to gain a considerable amount of respect.
Diddy stated on a radio interview that he was pleased about his homecoming.
“It's a blessing that [Shyne's] coming home," Diddy said. "I spoke to him like a couple of weeks ago and he sounded like he was in good spirits. I know he can't wait to get home. I know he is definitely going to heat the whole scene up. He was definitely one of talented young artists that I had the pleasure to work with. I'm quite sure he's been using his time wisely and has some heat”
Radio interview is in the below audio clip…
We’ll see what happens when Shyne gets back on his feet, because I’ll definitely be looking out for what his next move is. You already know we will keep you posted.

5 A Very Interesting List!
Starting last week MTV premiered the top 10 Hottest MC's in the game just like they have been doing over the last three years. But this year the list was very controversial, or at least to me. I say this because just like every year the panel of judges don't go off of lyrics, they go off fan base, popularity, etc. If they go off of just lyrics I feel that the list would be completely different. Here is how the list played out from #10-#1.....Raekwon, 50 cent, Fabolous, Young Jeezy, Gucci Mane, Rick Ross, Kanye West, Drake, Lil Wayne, and Jay Z.
Does anyone else see anything wrong with this list? I mean not to hate or anything but Gucci Mane, and Rick Ross over Young Jeezy? I just don't get it, and there missing some MC's like Eminen for example. Personally I haven't been a fan of 50 cent since "The Massacre" album and he shouldn't even be on the list. Also YES Drake is a phenomenal rapper....but to put him at such a high ranking as number 3 so early in his career just doesn't flow with me. Once again not trying to hate because he is a very dope rapper, and yes he should be on the list but maybe a little lower like anywhere in the number 5-7 spots. And I'm not even going to get started on how they played my dude Jeezy on the list, there's not enough room in the blog.
But at the end of the day everyone is entitled to their own opinion so here are 2009's MTV Hottest MC's in the Game.

0 Curren$y's New Projects: Jet Files and Smokey Robinson Mixtape w/ Don Cannon
Yesterday, Curren$y dropped his latest mixtape, JETS FOOL and we posted it up on F.A.D.E.D. for y'all...apparently, Spitta is not close to done. Curren$y has been on his grind with the whole music thing and even though he may seem like he's just now getting the recognition, this dude is a veteran. After partnering up with Wiz Khalifa for what I believe is one of the hottest mixtapes of '09 (How Fly), it took a little more than a month for him to come with another banger (JETS FOOL).
Curren$y has been keeping fans updated through YouTube and Twitter about his new tape coming on October 6th called Jet Files. The tracklist has already been released and many fans are anticipating that date.
Think he's done?
Never. In the video below, Curren$y is seen with producer Don Cannon discussing another project that they both are working on together. This new mixtape will be entitled Smokey Robinson. To see the kid working with major names like Don Cannon, you just know he's working hard and he will reach his peak soon enough. Take a look at the vid...
Keep doing what you do, Spitta. F.A.D.E.D. is definitely a fan!
We will keep y'all posted on Curren$y next moves, so make sure y'all keep checking in.
Til the next post...

0 Jordan still got NBA money...and using it!
The developers of the mansion are saying that it sounds like more of a Wal-Mart than a domicile. Michael house will have 11 bedrooms, a grand stairway, a giant fireplace, a house, and it will be a 37,942 square-foot two story home. Michael has been retired for years now, and is just enjoying everyday because from all his ventures money just keeps coming in, and I believe it won't stop for a while.
Oh yeah, there's also a cottage, and guard gate too. I have no words to say except "WHOA!!! I hope he doesnt get lost in his own house".

0 October/November Skateboard Mag!
Seeing as tomorrow is the first of the month, I was thinking that I should add the October issue of Skateboard Mag, even though they have the November issue coming out soon. The October magazine marks the 67th issue, and of course that would make November the 68th issue. Some of the articles on the October issue include an interview with my favorite skateboarder Paul Rodriguez , also you can find the "Island of enchantment" talking about Volcom Stone in Puerto Rico. Featured articles in the November include an interview with Peter Ramondetta, "Flip's Sorry Triology" talking about the progressive, and retrospectives of skateboarding today.
