Jim Jones: And look at the Vibe cover. Tell me who Jay-Z looks like in there? Did you see the picture of him? With the Louis Vuitton scarf and all that. Who did that resemble? You can say it. But he did it wrong; he had a Gucci belt with a Louis Vuitton scarf. Who does that? You smell me? That’s like wearing one Nike and one Puma

[T.I.]I don’t feel like he possesses any swag. Not like that. It’s fabricated. They’re watching other people, then they try and do it. You know people that dress like T.I.? You know people that go out and say let me get a T.I. outfit or do you know people who say “yo, you’re looking like Jim Jones?”

“Dre sent over a bunch of beats, and we’re just going through them all, picking out who wants what,” the G-Unit chief told Blender from Eminem’s Detroit home, where he was spending the night. “We already finished one joint”–the Slim Shady-starring “Norman Bates Motel”–”and just started vocals on another.

“It was really good, but … I think it was too hard-core for HBO. HBO doesn’t have a good track record when it comes to black shows, and I felt like that may have had something to do with it also,” he told the site. This was very entertaining and we showed it to a lot of people. People gave it a very good response, and it seems to be on the shelf right now.

“I wanted to address my fans about my upcoming album.

I have worked on this album for close to one year. I have taken the time so I can create my sound. Something that says who I am at this stage in my life. I have poured my heart and soul into it. It is my baby. It is the most time I have spent on any project since my first records as a member of Destiny’s Child when I was 15 years old. I have recorded over 70 songs and have created a sound that reveals all of me. I am in a different place right now and I wanted people to see the many sides of me. The music is upbeat for the dance, fun side and it is reflective, passionate and serious for the personal side. I have taken risks here. I am not afraid and my music will explain it all. There is no label or tag on my sound. It’s me and I am so excited to share it with the world on November 18.”

Love,
Beyoncé
