<p>Ludacris recently took to twitter to share a photo of himself in a pose of victory, after a tiresome climb up the Great Wall of China.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<blockquote><p><strong><em>“I CLIMBED THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA!!! KNOCK IT OFF MY BUCKET LIST!! OR AS I CALL IT MY F**K IT LIST!!”</em></strong><em> he tweeted.</em></p></blockquote>

<p>Now that that's over with, it's back to business with Luda, who is gearing up for his <em>1.21 Gigawatts</em> mixtape, which features his Waka Flocka featured "Rich &amp; Flexin." This project will drop October 12th, with his eighth studio album <em>Ludaversal</em> slated for 2012.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span id="more-107255"></span><strong>Tyler, The Creator Not Signing With Pharrell Williams</strong></p>
<p>Rumors have been circling the internet today that Odd Future's <strong>Tyler, The Creator</strong> has inked a deal with <strong>Pharrell Williams'</strong> new imprint <strong>I Am Other</strong>.</p>
<p>Well, it turns out those reports are false.</p>
<p>Tyler, The Creator died the rumors himself when he took to Twitter earlier today with the following message:</p>
<p><a href="http://hiphopwired.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/picture-2.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-107274" title="Picture 2" src="http://hiphopwired.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/picture-2.png" alt="" width="522" height="199" /></a></p>
<p>The Odd Future boss didn't stop there, as he tweeted out a couple more updates to clear up the speculation:</p>
<p><a href="http://hiphopwired.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/picture-31.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-107275" title="Picture 3" src="http://hiphopwired.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/picture-31.png" alt="" width="487" height="165" /></a></p>
<p>Earlier this year, Tyler and OFWGKTA signed a deal with RED Distribution/Sony and launched Odd Future Records, so The Creator has a point. Why would he sign to a label when he already has his own?</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span id="more-92333"></span><strong>Pharrell Talks Karmaloop TV and The Verge Culture</strong></p>
<p><strong>Pharrell Williams</strong>, who was recently <a href="http://hiphopwired.com/2011/05/10/pharrell-named-creative-director-for-karmaloop/" target="_blank">named Creative Director of Karmaloop</a>, along with Karmaloop's CEO <strong>Greg Selkoe</strong>, sat down for a recent interview with <strong>CNBC</strong>.</p>
<p>The two Karmaloop reps discussed their plans to expand its web-based video content to cable and satellite TV.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong><em>"Basically, this is my passion," </em></strong>Selkoe, who grew his company from his parent's home to a multi-million dollar business, said.<em></em><strong><em> "I thought I was going to be an urban planner, that's what I did prior to starting Karmaloop. </em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>"I went to the Kennedy School [at Harvard University] and got a masters in public policy," </em></strong>he continued.<em></em><strong><em> "This whole business started in my parents basement and it's become what it is today, but it was a side business when it started."</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>"It's a natural progression [to take KarmaloopTV to cable]," </em></strong>Willaims added.<strong><em> "I think it's about time for the corporate world to sort of understand that these kids have a voice and they're no longer going to wait for the older guys to figure it out. </em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>"They're going down to Silicon Valley and they're the interns in these big captial companies...and software companies...They know what they want and it's not a doubt. If you understand the space that you want to work in, then why don't you want to go in there and make your life a lot easier?"</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>"What we're trying to express with showcasing verge culture and all that it can do," </em></strong>he continued.<strong><em> "It's about illustrating to the world the incredible possibilities and the things that are in these children's minds. The world is changing and it's the youth culture that's changing it."</em></strong></p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span id="more-90576"></span><strong>Pharrell Williams Joins Karmaloop TV</strong></p>
<p><strong>Pharrell Williams</strong> was announced as <a href="http://www.karmaloop.com/" target="_blank"><strong>Karmaloop TV's</strong> </a><strong>Creative Director today.</strong></p>
<p>Pharrell Williams, the Grammy winning musician, lead singer of N.E.R.D., producer/label owner behind more than a decade of worldwide hits by artists ranging from <strong>Gwen Stefani, Jay-Z, Kanye West, Justin Timberlake</strong> and <strong>Snoop Dogg t</strong>o Britney Spears, Madonna, Shakira and Jennifer Lopez, and the creator of global clothing brands Billionaire Boys Club and Ice Cream, has joined Karmaloop TV, the new multi-platform TV network targeting youth culture.</p>
<p>An innovative entertainment and lifestyle entrepreneur and Renaissance man, Williams will take a significant equity position in and assume the title of Creative Director for new programming network Karmaloop TV.</p>
<p><a href="http://hiphopwired.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/pharrell_williams.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-90613" title="pharrell_williams" src="http://hiphopwired.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/pharrell_williams.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="400" /></a></p>
<p>Slated to launch in late 2011, the new multi-platform network will feature original productions as well as the popular and cult movies that have shaped and defined <strong>“Verge Culture.”</strong></p>
<p>Comprised of the first generation to grow up with the Internet, Verge Culture is a new, growing multicultural group of teens and young adults who communicate digitally and globally to spread the latest trends in music, fashion, technology, art and action sports.</p>
<p>It is a group that defines itself by ideas, instead of race or geographic location. They are alpha-consumers and early adopters who crave the latest and the newest, and it is their taste and buying patterns that influence larger popular culture.</p>
<p><a href="http://hiphopwired.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/greg-selkoe-karmaloop.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-90614" title="greg-selkoe-karmaloop" src="http://hiphopwired.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/greg-selkoe-karmaloop.jpg" alt="" width="550" height="366" /></a></p>
<blockquote><p><em><strong>“Pharrell is, without a doubt, one of the most influential cultural creatives and business minds in America today,”</strong></em> states Greg Selkoe, CEO of Karmaloop TV. <strong><em>“We're delighted and honored that he has joined our effort to create a multi-platform brand that will once again excite cutting edge youth culture about TV, just as MTV did in the 1980s.”</em></strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Karmaloop TV's President, Katie McEnroe, adds:</p>
<p><a href="http://hiphopwired.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/karmalooptv.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-90615" title="KarmaloopTV" src="http://hiphopwired.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/karmalooptv.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="350" /></a></p>
<blockquote><p><strong><em>“We think Pharrell's unique creative vision will build the kind of content that speaks to the many diverse passions that drive the young, trend- and tech-savvy sophisticates we are targeting with Karmaloop TV.”</em></strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Pharrell Williams summed it up this way,</p>
<p><a href="http://hiphopwired.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/med_pharrell_williams_artist_photo12.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-90616" title="med_pharrell_williams_artist_photo12" src="http://hiphopwired.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/med_pharrell_williams_artist_photo12.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="300" /></a></p>
<blockquote><p><strong><em>“Karmaloop TV will once again give intelligent and creative youth culture a voice and a TV entertainment brand they can call their own, something that has been missing for a long time now."</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>"We intend to create amazing programming that really speaks to this group and is innovative, fun and groundbreaking. Progressive youth culture is hungry for different content than what is out there now - they are currently massively underserved.”</em></strong></p></blockquote>
