			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/05/23/pusha-t-exodus-231-listendownload/">the battle </a>between <strong>Pusha T</strong> and <strong>Young Money</strong> rages on, Clipse member, <strong>No Malice</strong> has jumped in the disagreement. Formerly called "Malice," Pusha T's  brother went on Twitter yesterday to respond to Weezy's <a href=" http://hiphopwired.com/2012/05/24/lil-wayne-says-fuk-pusha-t-and-anybody-that-love-em/">post on the social networking site</a> late last week.<span id="more-160489"></span></p>
<p>"Well I LOVE Pusha!" he <a href=" http://twitter.com/NoMalice757/status/206368826542145537">wrote</a>. "That's my blood and I ain't never kiss em," making reference to Weezy and  Birdman's infamous lip-lock.</p>
<p>Pusha T has yet to release a rebuttal to the on-going rift, but on Friday Weezy put his anger to music, dropping a snippet of the diss record "<a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/05/25/swizz-beatz-feat-weezy-goulish-pusha-t-diss/">Goulish</a>." Judging by it's repsonse on the 'Net, the upbeat track may have (slightly) missed the mark to compete as an actual diss record.</p>
<p>Rappers need to learn to just get along.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It seems like critics (and tons of rappers) love to hate Drake, but he could care less. The Canadian MC, who recently got caught in <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/05/23/pusha-t-exodus-231-listendownload/">Pusha T's line of fire</a>,  explained that getting dissed by the public is more of a gift than a curse. "There will be days when I walk in an arena and people will cheer and then there might be days when I walk in an arena and people might boo, but it all sounds the same to me because it's all just noise that lets me know that I'm relevant," he told <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1685909/drake-critics.jhtml">MTV News</a>.<span id="more-160162"></span></p>
<p>Citing advice handed down to him by Floyd Mayweather, Drake revealed that much of the criticism comes from the Internet.  "I don't get booed. I don't face that. I mean he [Mayweather] faces that challenge but my challenge is more with social media and open opinions and people just feeling like they need to talk."</p>
<p>No doubt Drizzy has become skilled in brushing off critiques. Although he once proclaimed "diss me and you'll never hear a reply for it," he's been known to go at some of his opponents, but he also knows when to admit defeat. When Common threw lyrical jabs at  the 25-year-old, rather than letting the rift go too far, the beef was squashed after they <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/02/17/exclusive-common-drake-squashed-beef-at-the-grammys/">ran into each other</a> at this year's Grammy Awards.</p>
<p>Time will tell who else will attempt to slander the Young Money rhymer, but —if necessary— he can always call on Lil Wayne to <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/05/24/lil-wayne-says-fuk-pusha-t-and-anybody-that-love-em/">fight his battles</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Two of the most dominant, divisive and successful crews in Hip-Hop are <strong>G.O.O.D. Music</strong> and <strong>YMCMB</strong>. At one time, the two factions headed by<strong> Kanye West</strong> and<strong> Lil Wayne</strong>, respectively, were quite chummy. Somewhere along the way however, as their success grew and grew, their friendship went astray.</p>
<p>But to understand how it went <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/05/23/pusha-t-exodus-231-listendownload/">all bad,</a> you have to remember that at <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/05/24/lil-wayne-says-fuk-pusha-t-and-anybody-that-love-em/">one time</a> it was all good (or G.O.O.D.). <strong>Hip-Hop Wired</strong> takes a look at the long and storied history of the YMCMB vs. G.O.O.D. Music Cold War. Whose side are you on?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Finally, a name has been said! After countless subliminals between both <strong>Pusha T</strong> and <strong>Drake</strong> over the last year, <strong><a href="http://hiphopwired.com/?s=lil+wayne&amp;x=35&amp;y=8" target="_blank">Lil Wayne</a></strong> steps up to the plate in defense of his artist. "Fuk pusha t and anybody that love em," <a href="https://twitter.com/LilTunechi/status/205582116895997953" target="_blank">tweeted</a> Lil Tunechi last night after Push A Ton's latest track, <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/05/23/pusha-t-exodus-231-listendownload/" target="_blank">"Exodus 23:1,"</a> thought to contain shots at Drizzy, started making the Internet rounds.</p>
<p>The irony of this move by the YMCMB general is that he and the Clipse have had disagreements dating back to the <em><strong>We Got It For Cheap</strong></em> series and <em><strong><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/hell-hath-no-fury/id304841970">Hell Hath No Fury</a></strong></em> days. Who do you think <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdJjqApa3e0&amp;feature=related"><strong>"Mr. Me Too"</strong> </a>was about people? Shouts<span id="more-159084"></span> to <strong><a href="http://https://twitter.com/#!/gilliedakid">@GillieDaKid</a></strong> on the video cameo. That's a whole different story.</p>
<p><strong>Pusha</strong> has claimed on numerous occasions after Wayne was released from jail in November '10 that their differences have been settled since. Personally, I never believed this to be true as a serious <strong>Clipse</strong> supporter. Since the release of Tha Carter IV August '11, <strong>Pusha</strong> found himself on the defensive for his G.O.O.D brother and CEO, <strong>Kanye West</strong>.</p>
<p>The source of disrespect stems from the "It's Good" record, which included direct shots at <strong>Jay-Z</strong> . <strong>Drake</strong> admitted in an interview with Funkmaster Flex during his "Take Care" promo run that he was aware of <strong>Wayne's</strong> actions and didn't have a problem with them. Depending on who you ask, <strong>Drake's</strong> opening bars on the record can be interpreted as shots as well. He recites lyrics which claim certain rappers have gotten "too comfy" in this game. It can be argued the alliance against "The Throne" was formed then. According to <a href="http://www.bet.com/news/music/2011/10/14/drake-addresses-pusha-t-diss-lil-wayne-s-competition-with-jay-z.html">BET</a>, <strong>Drake</strong> made it clear that he understood there was a competition that existed between both <strong>Wayne</strong> and <strong>Hov</strong>.</p>
<p>In September and December '11 respectively, <strong>Pusha</strong> stepped to the plate to address<strong> Drake</strong> via his <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOhXM5L2H1M">"Dreams Money Can Buy" </a>and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lRMebiTnNk">"Sweet"</a> freestyles. One of <strong>Pusha's</strong> more memorable direct subliminals was featured on the <strong>"Dreams Money Can Buy"</strong> freestyle, where he says <strong><em>"Rappers on their sophomores, actin' like they boss lords/Fame such a funny thing for sure when n—as start believing all those encores."</em></strong></p>
<p>Fast forward to February 2012; <strong>Wayne</strong> took to the stage to celebrate both his and <strong>Drake's</strong> album success at his Las Vegas Cash Money Pre-Grammy event at Paramount Studios. After announcing that <strong>Christina Milian</strong> was the newest signee to YMCMB, <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/02/12/lil-wayne-disses-jay-z-kanye-west-at-cash-moneys-pre-grammy-party-video/" target="_blank"><strong>Wayne</strong> delivered another round of shots at <strong>Jay-Z</strong> and <strong>Kanye West</strong></a>. He ensured those in attendance that his red bone didnt want "to watch the throne." By this time, <strong>Drake</strong> and G.O.O.D's <strong>Common</strong> were just finishing up a quick lyrical war, which was offically squashed after the two bright skin brothers met at the NBA All Star Game.</p>
<p>This brings us to <strong>Pusha's</strong> "Exodus 23:1" record from last night. He returned to throwing shots at the Canadian rapper with <strong>The-Dream</strong> riding shotgun. Forgive the speculation, but does anybody else find it ironic that <strong>Pusha</strong> picked <strong>The-Dream</strong> for the chorus? It is documented that the crooner has a minor issue with <strong>The Weeknd</strong>, who's connected to <strong>Drake</strong>.</p>
<p>Now that <strong>Wayne</strong> has stepped up and said <strong>Pusha's</strong> name with <strong>Drake</strong> somewhere penning a batch of new subliminals, it's likely this will be one of the more entertaining "wars" in recent memory if anything comes from it. There is too much history between this love triangle for nothing to happen now. We should be in store for some G.O.O.D Music.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As <strong>Future </strong>rose to prominence last year, his "<a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2011/11/03/is-one-of-drakes-latest-tweets-a-shot-at-atlanta-rapper-future-30097/">Tony Montana</a>" record was one of the songs that helped him climb in popularity. When Drake hopped on the remix for the song became even more popular and helped land Future his record deal with Epic. However, the two had a much publicized <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2011/11/03/future-says-drake-not-being-in-video-is-a-slap-in-the-face-video/">falling out </a>when <strong>Drake</strong> failed to show up to the shoot for the video. According to MTV, the two seem to have patched things up. Check the video below.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>A$AP Rocky</strong> is nothing if not honest. The "<a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/04/16/aap-rocky-goldie-produced-by-hit-boy-listendownload/">Goldie</a>" rapper performed at the <strong>Bamboozle festival</strong> over the weekend, and when asked about fellow newcomer, <strong>Azealia Banks</strong>, he advised her to <a href="http://www.rap-up.com/2012/05/20/asap-rocky-on-azealia-banks-she-gotta-chill-out-with-the-beefin/#more-124350">stop starting trouble</a>.</p>
<p><span id="more-157672"></span></p>
<p>"She gotta chill out with the beefin' and all that other stuff and disrespecting the O.G.s," he told <strong>FUSE</strong>. "Other than that I think if she stay outta trouble she'll have longevity.</p>
<p>In the past year or so Banks has started feuds with just about every female rapper she can think of. Her most recent attack was<a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/05/06/lil-kim-says-azealia-banks-is-trying-to-use-her-for-publicity/"> launched at Lil Kim</a>, and even though she apologizes for her rants (which usually take place on Twitter), maybe she should take Rocky's advice and learn to play well with others.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Beef in Hip-Hop is one of the most exciting parts of the culture, but lately it seems that rappers are igniting feuds just to get attention. Perhaps the most noted repeat offender in the game right now is <em><strong>Azealia Banks</strong></em>, who<a href=" http://hiphopwired.com/2012/05/06/lil-kim-says-azealia-banks-is-trying-to-use-her-for-publicity/ "> starts rifts </a>with any and everyone who crosses her path—a move which may end up backfiring.</p>
<p>According to Bow Wow, whose career spans well over a decade, arguing with other MCs is a waste of time.  “That's played out,” Bow told Hip-Hop Wired. “Just go in the studio, do what you gotta do, and do what we want you to do, and that's make good music so we can listen to it.”<span id="more-154677"></span></p>
<p>For the most part, Bow has managed to stay away from problems with too many rappers besides<strong> <a href="http://www.rapbasement.com/soulja-boy/020909-bow-wow-and-soulja-boy-end-their-public-beef-all-videos-included-was-it-real.html">Soulja Boy</a></strong> in 2009, and an issue with chain-snatching victim, <strong>Young Berg</strong>. As he preps the release of his<strong> <em>Underrated</em></strong> album, and gets ready to <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/04/30/bow-wow-talks-underrated-suicide-rumors-says-daughter-is-the-best-thing-to-happen-to-him/">hit the road for the accompanying tour</a>, the 25-year-old claims to have put any unnecessary disagreements behind him. “Life's too precious life's too short for people to be arguing. I ain't got time for that sh**. I'm too fly. I'm not a street guy, I never been one. I'm just a cool dude, I know street guys, but that doesn't make me one.”</p>
<p>Aside from the music, Bow is still heavy in the movie game. His latest project <strong><em>Recalled</em></strong> is due out by early 2013. “Top of last year I filmed [the] movie,” he said of the drama which details the story of an Iraqi war lieutenant who becomes involved in an AWOL attempt. “That's what I've been working on as well as this show with <strong>Ice Cube</strong> and<strong> Cube Vision</strong> that is definitely going down. I don't have a name for it yet, you'll hear more about that around fall time. Really this year is devoted touring. We just ended [a tour in] Europe, we did like a month and a half over there. It's really been about getting out of the box office and going to see my fans in person, giving them what I they've been asking for the past three years.”</p>
<p><em>Underrated</em> is due out June 12.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Suge Knight</strong> didn't waste time starting as much controversy as possible during his interview with L.A. radio station, <strong><a href="http://www.935kday.com/">93.5 KDay</a></strong> Friday (April 20). Aside from re-opening speculation into whether or not <strong>Tupac</strong> is <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/04/20/suge-knight-says-tupac-is-not-really-dead-video/">still alive</a>,  the former <strong>Death Row Records</strong> head fired more than a few verbal shots at <strong>Rick Ross</strong>, over the track "Tupac Back."</p>
<p>Knight, threatened to "<a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?gx7p5dvjcvr6an5">beat the dog s--t</a>" out of Ross if given the opportunity blasting the Maybach Music frontman for his affiliation with <strong>Diddy</strong>-- who, he believes is to blame for Tupac's 1996 death. <span id="more-151607"></span>Despite not knowing Ross personally, Knight launched into a full-fledged attack, calling the rapper out on just about everything. "This a guy who uses somebody else's name," he said, referencing the Miami MC's namesake, <strong><a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/03/29/rick-ross-wins-lawsuit-to-keep-name-against-freeway-ricky-ross/">Freeway Rick Ross</a></strong>. "This is a guy who comes from being a corrections officer. I don't have nothing negative about him personally, I just feel that he do good music, and you can't take that from him. That boy got bars, he writes, it might be somebody else's story [he's] writing, but at least he's writing. But at the same time, I think it's a line you cross and Rick Ross crossed that line. If you're gonna be with the guy [Diddy] who promotes he killed Tupac, you can't go turn around and do a record saying 'Tupac Back.' Rick Ross is a grown a$$ n--a. I'll beat the dog s--t out of Rick Ross because I feel it's wrong to manipulate these people out here."</p>
<p>Ross has yet to respond, but this isn't the first time he's found himself the target of beef. His infamous rift with <strong>50 Cent</strong> <a href="http://www.rapbasement.com/rick-ross/071210-rick-ross-closes-the-book-on-50-cent-beef-watch-here-click-now.html">ended in 2010</a>, when Ross decided that he'd had enough of going back and forth with the G-unit head honcho.</p>
<p>Back in the day, Knight had a reputation for handing out fades, but being that he already caught a <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2008/05/11/bloody-saturday-for-suge/#.T">vicious two-piece</a> while partying in 2008, then again <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2009/02/16/suge-knight-beat-down-again/">in 2009</a>, he might not want it with Ross.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You have probably heard <strong><a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/03/30/barack-obama-sings-lmfaos-s-xy-and-i-know-it-video/" target="_blank">LMFAO's</a></strong> ubiquitous hit <strong>"Party Rock Anthem"</strong> sometime in your life. The tune has gotten too much damn radio play, sold almost 10 million digital copies worldwide in 2011 alone, appeared in Kia commercials and earned the odd dressing <strong>RedFoo</strong> and <strong>SkyBlu </strong>millions of dollars in the process. But now the duo, who have plenty of other hits (like the <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/03/30/barack-obama-sings-lmfaos-s-xy-and-i-know-it-video/" target="_blank">Barack Obama fav "S-xy And I Know It"</a>) is beefing over money, <a href="http://www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/duo_every_day_tusslin_tbDvTTCHvMMsrGdkzNkqtK" target="_blank">reports the <em>New York Post</em></a>.</p>
<p>It seems this family affair (RedFoo, who besides being Motown founder Berry Gordy's son is also SkyBlu's uncle) has been at odds over the proper distribution of their revenue and have even been booking separate DJ appearances. “Redfoo has always been promoting himself, doing <span id="more-151118"></span>his own thing,” an anonymous source told the <em>Post.</em> Turns out the elder Gordy has been banking $100,000 a night DJ gigs while his 11 years younger nephew hasn't been seeing that type of dough. Say what you will about their rhymes skills, suspect attire or hella annoying songs (they did a "Sorry For Party Rockin," also a hit), struggle rappers never see that type of coin. LMFAO is <a href="http://popcrush.com/lmfao-kris-allen-american-idol/" target="_blank">scheduled to perform on <em>American Idol</em></a> tonight.</p>
<p>Okay, you can go back to not caring now.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Now that the <strong>Mobb Deep</strong> <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/04/09/havoc-berates-prodigy-on-twitter-mobb-deep-splits/">breakup saga</a> is seemingly over, with <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/04/09/havoc-claims-cell-phone-was-stolen-mobb-deep-still-intact/">a hacker</a> being blamed on Havoc's inflammatory tweets, Prodigy sat down with Hot 97's <strong>Cipha Sounds &amp; Rosenberg</strong> yesterday (April 17) morning to set the record straight.</p>
<p><strong></strong>After being grilled by CS and Rosenberg to tell the truth and shame the Devil, P admitted he is still somewhat clueless as to how the whole situation blew up. “I can't even tell you how it happened,” said P. “All I can say is that when we got down to the bottom of it, me and Hav realized what was going on, we knew it was all bogus.”</p>
<p>Prodigy acknowledged that <span id="more-150795"></span>when the duo didn't come forward immediately to clarify the situation it may have looked like something was afoot for someone on the outside looking in. “We didn't get up on Twitter and be like its bogus. So that's probably why people think we set it up or something. We just waited for a minute, and we was like, ‘You know what? They'll see when we <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2012/04/14/mobb-deep-plays-nice-attends-knicks-game-together-photo/">at the game</a> and we working on this album putting out singles that it's all a bunch of nothing.”</p>
<p>The “Shook Ones” rapper even admitted to using the situation to his advantage. “Really, me and Hav are businessmen. We stepped back and was like, ‘Alright, how can we use this to our advantage. And basically we was like, ‘Alright well, P got an album bout to drop. Just wait, do the interviews and promote your sh#t like you supposed to.'”</p>
<p>“Me and Hav, its business as usual,” he added. “We good.”</p>
<p>With so many conflicting stories and information its hard to tell who to believe. But if they say they are cool, they are cool. Right?</p>
