NMC’s first lady Miss Info got the scoop:
Shyne has signed a seven-figure deal with Def Jam, ending a bidding war that included Dr. Dre/Jimmy Iovine. The plan is to have Shyne work out of London.
She also reports that Shyne has been working with Kyambo “Hip-Hop” Joshua for a while now. (Joshua and his HipHopSince1978 partners, Gee Roberson, also manage Lil Wayne, Drake, Young Jeezy, etc.)
…and about that DJ Khaled track, he didn’t mean for that to be his first loo
FOUND THIS VIDEO QUITE AMUSING…GOOD STUFF!!!

So the mad mind behind “Day N Nite” let loose this track in CDQ originally found on CuDi’s demo and known as “Be” to promote his newly-launched website, HeadBanga Muzik. Check out that site to read about the history of the song.

Another one for the Budden/Cardim collection. Unlike the previous warm-up leaks, this one actually was meant for his third LP, The Great Escape, but it’s being leaked now due to clearance issues.
Expect more collabs from the two on TGE & J. Cardim’s Dice Music: The In Crowd.
Tony Billz produces yet another reference video…this time, with a Drake and Nipsey Hu$$le collaboration. Not only does he create dope visuals to add to ‘Killer’, but also notice his original artistic interpretation of the song. We were informed that this will be his last cover video produced, so enjoy!
Here’s the file from Kanye laying his verse with the T-Pain’s girl group, Sophia Fresh. His second verse is mostly mumbling though, because it wasn’t finished. *Kanye shrug*

Props to Kenewest on the find. Listen to the final version below:

Popeater’s Rob Shuter reports that Kanye West is among the only top stars not invited to appear on tomorrow’s George Clooney–organized telethon for Haiti. “After what he said on the Katrina telethon and the way he behaved at the MTV Video Music Awards, everyone agrees it’s just best that he does not participate,” says a producer. “Kanye has to make everything about himself. He will do anything to steal the spotlight and, well, this night it’s just not about him.” Can’t he answer telephones or help move some cables or something?
