Word is Mickey Factz had an epic show at S.O.B.'s last night that included him snorting coke on stage and some chick getting butt naked while he performed, too. While we wait on that video, here is a NSFW clip from Factz in his Mickey MauSe persona called "Taking Pictures Of Girls Naked."

The title pretty much sums it up. In the video—directed Erikson Corniel and Michael Mejia with creative direction by Siria Alvarez—Mr. Mause is armed with a Polaroid camera and kicks it with a check that seems to be allergic to clothing. Watch "Taking Pictures Of Girls Naked" below.

Alvin aqua Blanco — Thu, 01 Mar 2012 14:47:51 +0000

One of Fat Joe's nicknames is Joe Crack. Not because of any plumber like clothing malfunctions or any coke that was allegedly sold, but because "Crack" is what he used to tag up throughout the Bronx back in the day. Rap fame is what caused Joe to put the Krylon candown, but he recently took his graf writing talent's to the wall of Lil Wayne's Miami home. Joe showed off his work on Twitter and Instagram. "Back at it again!!! Wait for the finish pic," he tweeted.

The strategically placed Vans logo means they may have something to do with this. Peep Joe Crack's work, from start to finish, in the gallery. Big up to TATS CRU.

Soulja Boy's three mixtapes exploded onto the internet Halloween night and have been widely downloaded nationwide. Now as his new material continues to bubble online, he's revealing that he is broadening his horizons and working on new R&B material. Cortez is confirming reports that he's been busy in the studio writing for singing superstars, Rihanna and her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown.

According to him, he was on a tight deadline when he got a phone call to contribute to Rihanna's upcoming Rated R album. He told MTV about the last minute request saying,

“It was like, 'Yo, I need you to do something for Rihanna's album. You got 11 hours. Go!' It was like, What?!”

He also noted that he contributed to Chris Brown's forthcoming, Graffiti, album. Soulja Boy and Chris teamed up for a song titled, “She's Bad” which he says all the females will love.

"My approach to it was, if me and Chris Brown ever did a song together it got to be the best song ever. When people hear it, it gotta be automatic, be in all the kids' heads, all the girls definitely gotta love it, all the females gotta love it. That was my approach to it. I was just thinking, 'What is the slickest lines I could say to a female to make them fall in love with this record?”

Look for Soulja Boy's collaborations with Rihanna and Chris Brown when Rated R hits store shelves November 23 and Graffiti drops on December 15.
