Gucci Mane Released From Prison

Rapper Gucci Mane is now out of prison. Despite several false reports claiming the Atlanta hip hop star had been released a few days ago, Gucci was actually freed last night (July 5th.) He celebrated with a 'Welcome Home Party' at Club Onyx in Atlanta.

Gucci also immediately released a new mixtape called “Writings on the Wall 2” with DJ Holiday; which features 50 Cent, Yelawolf, Jagged Edge, Whoo da Kid, Yo Gotti, YC and production by Drumma Boy, Lex Lugar, Knucklehead, Shawty Redd and others.

Gucci Mane was jailed in April for violating his probation after he was accused of assault for pushing a woman out of a moving car.

50 Cent On Amber Rose Pics

50 Cent has added his two cents to the Amber Rose naked picture controversy. Despite Rose claiming that the pictures were stolen and leaked without her knowledge, 50 questions whether or not she had no idea that they would one day surface. He points to the fact that, unlike most 'leaked' nude photos--these pics weren't spontaneous or taken with a camera phone.

"At least it didn't look bad," said 50 Cent to DJ Whoo Kid. "It looked good. Let me tell you something. Things like that don't hurt, that's promotion. That's publicity. You got to look at who a person was. [If it was] someone who came in that was completely, let's say, conservative, that would be a damaging blow..."

That was a camera that took those photos, that ain't no camera phone. You gotta know, you gotta have intention to have a picture taken with your fingers in your p***y. That may be interesting for you because you've been watching her -- because you saw her with Kanye [West]. [The other celebrity leaks,] those are telephone pictures. Look, if you have your picture taken of you when you're not aware of it, that's one thing. If you're taking a picture randomly, it's spontaneous, [it's] a camera picture. Her shoes change in the picture. It's different shoes. That means you're conscious, got up, changed the shoes and did it with a camera. You thought about it. So maybe she's taking the pictures for her significant other, maybe it's Wiz Khalifa's joint."

BirdMan, Joe Budden, Dj Whoo Kid, & Q Tip React To Mavericks Win

The Dallas Mavericks defeated the Miami Heat to win the 2011 NBA Finals 4-2. Several rappers tweeted their reactions to the outcome of the series, which saw the 'superteam' of LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh lose to the less-glamorous Mavs, led by Finals MVP Dirk Nowitzki.

"S/O to both teams 4 an amazing final. Now ..... handle all this lockout talk," Joe Budden tweeted. "Heat fans ... y'all have a great team & had a great season. Nothing to be mad at. & on 2nd thought, i won't be bashing y'all. But i called Dallas in 6 & i'm up about 8 stacks ... i'll take free $ all day long."

"ok BIRDMAN loses 2million -- I win $250 x 16 idiots = $4000 --- nice and CLEVELAND, Ohio wins the NBA finals!!!!!!!!" DJ Whoo Kid tweeted.

"And next year its gonna be even worse for miami," Q-Tip tweeted. "This was their year. #choke."

G-Unit Confirms "Jersey Shore" Signee

DJ Whoo Kid confirmed that "Jersey Shore" star DJ Pauly D was in fact signed by 50 Cent. Whoo Kid couldn't say, however, whether or not the reality star was the newest addition to G-Unit or the imprint's G-Note arm. But Pauly is definitely part of the G-Unit family now. And Whoo Kid said that 50 may be going for a more club-oriented sound with his label.

"I ain't get my pink slip yet," Whoo Kid joking said in an interview. "I'm not worried, man. All I do know is he does have new records that he wants to showcase and since 50 [Cent] -- especially with the Hot Rod situation -- he wants to broaden the horizon. I guess he wants to get into the club scene. I think he's G-Note. I haven't gotten the full thing yet...What's cool about 50, he'll call you and say you're fired. [laughs]"

50 Cent Promises New Single

50 Cent is promising to release a new single this week. The rapper tweeted the announcement and DJ Whoo Kid claims that he has heard several songs from the album 50's been working on for months.

“I heard like 22 records already,” Whoo Kid said. “He called me the other day, and said he needs 16 more songs,“ Whoo Kid says. “I’ve heard like nine definitely crazy [songs], and then he’s trying to collab with other people too. So it’s still up in the air. I’m assuming this will be the last album on Interscope. But he does a new deal every day. He’ll put it on ThisIs50.com either way, so you’ll know.”

Whoo Kid was with 50 in New Orleans on the set of the upcoming film Freelancers, to be released next year.
