Noname emcee Omilio Sparks, who was once a member of Roc-a-Fella Records, is speaking out about his old label as well as Camel Hov. In a recent interview, Sparks went on to claim that things at The Roc weren’t all good.

“It wasn’t all that it cracked up to be. It was smoke and mirrors. In the beginning it was all cool ’cause we was all young. You had Neef and them, they was 16, 17 [years-old] and Me and O was like 18, 20 [years-old] at the time. You straight from the ghetto, you meet Hov and next thing you know, you’re on TV. You got albums out, you’re on the road, so it was a rush. Everything was cool. Then we start blowin’ up. Then everybody wanting to know the business side of things. Me and O was doing our thing, but then O kept going to jail, getting locked up, so he couldn’t put nothing out. The Gunnas is dropping they thing, Freeway came did his thing, then the Roc-A-Fella break up come. Mac goes to jail, then there’s a bunch of bullshit going on,” he recently explained to XXL.

According to Sparks and anyone who listens to Hip-Hop, Jay hasn’t done what he should be doing.

“From my perspective as a nigga, if I put that kinda work in for somebody, you gotta look out. If you put soldiers out in the field, and they lose a leg or something they [get] the Purple Heart and shit like that. They get they veterans check, you feel me?…[They] put theysleves in position for you, and at the end of the day you say, fuck ‘em…I haven’t talked to Dame. Reached out to Hov. In fact, we bumped heads a few times.”

So, what sparked this problem with spark and Jay?

“Went up to the office a while go and hollered at TyTy. But not recently. He a busy man, too. I tried to get him to clear the record, “It Aint’ My Fault,” so I don’t know what he up to right now…We tried to get it cleared and he ain’t want to clear the record. I don’t understand. It’s business. I would like to see him and ask, “What? You don’t like the record?” I want to talk to him and look him in his face ask, “What’s up?” We had a deal for that record, change for it up front. All he had to do was clear it—call downstairs and clear the record,” he added.

Before leaving, he had this message for Jay-Z.

“Clear the record man! Clear the muthafuckin’ record man! Don’t stop my bread. Fuck, what for?! That’s all.”

Digable Planets - Rebirth of Slick (Cool Like Dat) (Listen Here)

Producer/songwriter Jermaine Dupri is putting out a different type of creation on buyer’s with his new So So Def clothing line.

The limited edition collection, which will include co-branded hoodys, t-shirts, hats, belts and belt buckles, will be sold at 200 stores throughout the U.S. beginning in April.

This is Dupri’s first fashion line, as he partners with Travis Barker’s clothing company, Famous Stars and Straps, for the project.

The two developed the concept and created the designs for the Famous Stars and Straps and So So Def line, which was unveiled earlier this month at the MAGIC fashion and apparel trade show in Las Vegas.

Dupri’s clothing line comes on the heels of his appointment as the new president of Island Records Urban Music, a new division of the Island Def Jam Music Group (IDJ).

Busta Rhymes gets busted yet again. This time for driving his SUV around Tribeca without a valid driver’s license, they put him behind bars for 18 hours before arraigning him. The Officers who pulled him over were willing to give Busta an appearance ticket and a warning, but the Manhattan district attorney’s office had other ideas and had him locked up.

One law enforcement official told the New York Daily News, “The disrespect for the law, when he has cases pending, is over the line.”

Busta pleaded not guilty to a misdemeanor charge of driving without a license and a related violation, and was released around 11 p.m.

Busta is facing alot of charges, stemming from two assault charges which he was given a plea offer: six months in jail or six months of anger-management classes and speaking to kids. Judge Abraham Clott said yesterday’s charges would be combined with the assault cases. Rhymes was spotted by cops as he blew a red light in Tribeca about 5:20 a.m. yesterday, sources said. Police followed his 2006 GMC Suburban and stopped him at Warren St. and West Broadway. A computer check showed his license had been suspended Jan. 8 for ignoring a summons.

Also as most of you already know, his bodyguard Israel Ramirez, was shot dead outside a Brooklyn recording studio during a video shoot. he still refuses to cooperate with the cops about the investigation, cops said.

Well… I highly doubt this shit is real. The beats do in fact bang like Dre beats, but after listening to the Doctors Advocate, who the fuck can tell anymore. Here it is anyway. 7 rumoured instrumentals that will be appearing on Detox, according to the dude that uploaded it. Only time will tell.
Don’t forget where you heard it first!

With a title like that I should write for like the New York Times or some shit…

“I dont know what this song is talking about… do you?”

Anyway, I guess ‘Ye contacted those homo’s Fall Out Boy to record a remix to ‘This Aint A Scene, Its A God Damn Arms Race’…. Surprisingly it turned out kinda cool… Kanye spits one of the funniest verses i’ve ever heard, with a line like “One thing I gotta call out boy/ take a look at Fall Out Boy/ Since they ain’t black when they get money they don’t ball out boy/ They just buy tight jeans till there nuts hang all out boy/ They figure ‘Ye dress tight so we gon dress tighta/ He dress white so we gon dress whiterrr/”
