I don’t really like posting about things like this but since he was such a high level executive at Def Jam, I guess it should be posted. R.I.P. to a man who had a great career and played a role in the careers of Young Jeezy, Rick Ross, Ciara & Beyonce.

Lupend.blogspot.com is reporting that Lupe Fiasco announced his next album, “LupEnd,” will have three discs. Each disc has its own name, Everywhere, Nowhere & Down Here. When Lupe Fiasco talked to RealTalkNY, he said this album may be his final release.

You know the routine…

It seems like anything posted online is believed to be true no matter how ridiculous it may be. Why in the world would Baby sell the rights to Lil Wayne for a measly 5 million dollars when he just went over 2x platinum and gave him a million in cash for his birthday? Lil Wayne just resigned to Cash Money for a multi album deal last month. Lil Wayne is going no where, wake up people.

Law enforcement agents have broken up a plot by two neo-Nazi skinheads to assassinate Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and shoot or decapitate 88 black people, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives said Monday.

Jim Cavanaugh, special agent in charge of ATF’s Nashville field office, said the two men planned to kill 88 black people, including 14 by beheading. The numbers 88 and 14 are symbolic in the white supremacist community.

The men also sought to go on a national killing spree after the Tennessee murders, with Obama as its final target, Cavanaugh told The Associated Press.”They said that would be their last, final act — that they would attempt to kill Sen. Obama,” Cavanaugh said. “They didn’t believe they would be able to do it, but that they would get killed trying.”

A horror movie came to life in Times Square last night when a man was stabbed in the neck after watching the gory flick, “Saw V,” a police source said. The victim was attacked in front of 250 W. 39th St., near Eighth Avenue at 11:30 p.m. by a group of several men, the source said.

In what appears to be a separate incident, four people were stabbed just blocks away on 42nd Street and Seventh Avenue at about the same time, sources said.
