calling out Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg in his new song, "Status." He says:
"Dr.
Dre, you was right, Snoopy, you raw hog, take it back to the beginning and keep
it gangsta y'all, you owe niggas an apology for stealing Mauseburg's shit,
that's how it is, how it's gotta be, I respect the game and you should too and
if you got a problem with it, this is what we should do, get together, sit down,
get it squashed, and get up, move on to pick up paper and it ain't nothing a
trip, you see, I put it out there with no animosity, no niggas to get it
twisted, now give me resiprocity, 'cause runners get back with only half the
story and if they get you fucked up, then they get half of the glory."

Washington Post had on article titled "Shyne, Under A Cloud" which
talks about his weapons charge, his album, & the similarities between him

"His
debut album consists of 16 tracks with titles like "Gangsta Prayer",
"Ni**as Gonna Die", "The Hit", & "Thats Gangsta".
With a few exceptions, most of these were about what TUPAC SHAKUR proudly

Mathers has been charged in relation to the incident in which her husband,
Eminem (Marshall Mathers), was arrested for assault when she was seen kissing
another man. (Eminem
Arrested) She was charged with disorderly conduct while interfering with
authorities and given 11 months probation and fined $50. Her probation includes
attending Alcoholics Anonymous and refraining from alcohol and drugs.
This

| | | Eminem Strikes back | | Posted Saturday, October 28, 2000 by Jon | Eminem was
allowed into Canada and will likely perform without any legal troubles. There
was some concern raised (Em banned from
Canada ?) after a woman named Valerie Smith cited that his lyrics, namely
"Kill You" and "Kim", violate Canada's "Hate Crime
Law".
In his performance in Toronto before playing "The Way I
Am" Eminem said "I dedicate this next song to that bitch Valerie
Smith," and after playing "Kill You" he said "Bet you didn't
think I was gonna do that one did you" |
| | | Fredwreck Speaks on Snoop's, Xzibit's, and Kurupt's Latest | | Posted Saturday, October 28, 2000 by Rukas | For those
of you who dont know who Fredwreck is, he is one of the fastest up and coming
producers on the westcoast. He is currently proving his worth DJing for Warren
G, Tha Eastsidaz, and Kurupt on the Up In Smoke Tour.
Fredwreck was
recently interviewed by Insider Magazine and mentioned he has finished up Snoop
Dogg's Last Meal with a bunch of songs. He also said he has done some work for
Doggy's Angels (Snoop's female group on his recently re-named DoggyStyle
Records). He has also done some work on Xzibit's new album and Kurupt's new
album. Fredwreck said Kurupt's album would be out later this year. He said he
did eight songs for the album and that it features MC Ren, Xzibit, Everlast, Daz,
Snoop Dogg, and Fred Durst and DJ Lethal from Limp Bizkit. |

official, Rakim have signed with Aftermath Entertainment! "We just signed
Rakim to our label, staight up," Dr. Dre says. "Rakim is on Aftermath,
and the name of his album is going to be Oh My God. This is going to be
the biggest hip-hop record ever, straight up and coming at you from Aftermath,
baby, so fuck all of y'all." Oh My God is set to be released next
year and will be produced by Dr. Dre, Mel-Man and DJ Premier. |
| | | Em banned from Canada ? | | Posted Saturday, October 28, 2000 by Jon | The Limp
Bizkit, Eminem, Xzibit, Papa Roach tour is 19 days away from it's stop in my
hometown of Vancouver Canada, according to DaveyD Em might not be with the tour.
Eminem
may have a difficult time crossing the Canadian border. Apparently his brash
lyrical content on songs like 'Kill You' violate Canada's Criminal Code. It is
illegal to communicate statements that promote hatred against any identifiable
group other than in private conversation. If this law is enforced Em's CDs could
be pulled and his performances cancelled. The woman leading the charge is a
Toronto woman named Valerie Smith. She has filed a complaint to T-Dots Hate
Crime Unit... Maybe its me...but doesn't Canada show all types of R rated movies
where there's violence directed toward an identifiable group? Maybe Em should
rename his album Private Conversations Em is Having With Dr Dre'. I'm began to
wonder about all these attempts to shut down Hip Hop. Either these are elaborate
promotional schemes or we are soon to have some sort of legislation that comes
down hard on certain types of artists. |

criminal controversies that ultimately engulfed his life. From assaulting film
directors to shooting two off-duty police officers to being convicted of sexual
assault to being sprayed with bullets not once but twice. Was it art from
reality or, based on his fantasy gangsta poetics, reality spawned from
art?"

| | | Rakim signs with Dr. Dre ? | | Posted Tuesday, October 10, 2000 by Jon | | Rakin and
Dre have talked about collabrating for the good part of the last 5 to 6 years
but nothing has eventuated, he was originally set to drop tracks for Rakims then
set comeback album, but as we all know this album didnt eventuate till 98. Rakim
was also suppossed to appear at the time on Dre and Cube's upcoming Helter
Skelter album as well which also didnt evenuate. The plan was to have a Dre,
Cube, Snoop, Rakim collaboration track on Helter Skelter. Well it turns out
Rakim was in LA recently and got in touch wit the good Doctor about him possibly
lacing some beats for his upcoming album which he stated would be his real
comeback, and that he just needed some dope beats for a full album, well Dre
agreed and both have been working on tracks together, both of them started
talking and Rakim has apparently been not only frustrated but annoyed at the
lack of support from Universal on his past to albums and in what he says label
polictics with both album in which Rakim says the Universal wouldnt stop bugging
him about making more commericial cuts on his second album to help it get more
exsposure along with cutting down more contrversial and political subject matter
on his tracks. Rakim stated that he wants to join a label which will help
promote and have his back 100 % and give him total creative control on his
album, he said basically that all he needs is a dope producer behind him and he
can handle the rest from there, word around Aftermath offices is that Rakim has
agreed in word to signing with label, it is uncertain at tha moment if he has
actually signed anything yet. |
