Nelly’s Photoshoot For Rap-Up + Diggy Simmons AT&T Commercial + Lil Wayne To Drop “Tha Carter IV” The Day He’s Released From Prison

Nelly recently sat for a photoshoot to promote his 5th studio album.  And the pics are looking sexy.   Also ,we have Diggy Simmons AT&T commercial and Lil Wayne’s Carter IV release date when you read on….

The folks over at the Rap-Up copped these pics:

Heeey Nelly.

 

 

Diggy Simmons’ new commercial for AT&T is online and we have it for you. It’s really inspiring. It shows Diggy contemplating his future as a musican and ability to live up to his family name. All the while, fans are downloading his music through their new AT&T devices, letting him know success is possible:

Nabbed an endorsement before even making a studio album.  Not mad…

 

 

Lil Wayne fans can expect new music from Weezy via a 10-song project called I Am Not a Human. The album will be released digitally on his birthday, September 27th. And after that, expect more music from the Young Money leader on November 5th when Tha Carter IV is expected to be released.  

Right now, Wayne has a tentative release date from prison on November 5th. So not only does Young Money want to drop Carter IV that day, they want to hold a welcome-home concert that night, which Wayne would headline.

When asked about the concert Mack Maine of Young Money had this to say:

"That’s where we are aiming for now.  I think the [Madison Square] Garden would be perfect. I wanna keep it Young Money. I think we can hold our own. As far as his set, it would be nice to have features and cameos on his set. As far as who opens for him, it’ll be a no-brainer, Young Money could hold it down. Just have the big features on Wayne’s set. He’s gonna have a show, then go to the studio. I just had a birthday recently. I had four parties for my birthday. For him, it’s no telling how that week would go, how that month would go. Five months [would go]. We’re gonna party like when Frank came home in ‘King of New York.’ We’re gonna go crazy."

Hmmm.  These "Good bye" and "Welcome home" parties kill me.  In a slighty funny way though. Are we glorifying a prison sentence?  Or just using publicity in a smart way?

Diggy Simmons Is A Top 5 Finalist For Breakthrough MC + Drake Hits A Milestone + Young Buck Says 50 Cent Is Destroying His Career

 

Ya boy Diggy Simmons is making more big moves.  Diggy is a top-5 finalist for hottest breakthrough MC of 2010.  The deets on this plus how Young Buck says 50 Cent is ruining his career when you read on…

<!–break–>

Diggy was one of the top vote getters in the MTV.com poll for top-5 hottest breakthrough MCs of 2010.  The winner will be revealed this Sunday at Noon on MTV’s Sucker Free Summit.

Check out this interview of Diggy where he talks about his music, the critics and what got him into the game. 

He is just a little cutie!  I think he’s gonna make it big!  What do you guys think?

A special congratulations goes out to Drake who’s album has gone platinum.  He sent a special thanks to his fans via his twitter page.

Even with a leaked album he was still able to go platinum….and this is his first album.  Kudos to Drake

Young Buck is out there saying that his former friend and group-mate 50 Cent is trying to kill his career.  Buck said that 50 uses contractual agreements to stop him from recording new music as well as recording with other artists.

Young Buck recently had an interivew with Nashville Scene where he talked about it all.  Here are some excerpts from the interview:

His reaction, being so harsh, is to basically stall me out to a position where I lose everything, to where my numbers drop.  Because if you don’t have a new product out, then you can’t go get the big dollar for your shows. [He wants] to pretty much destroy my life from a silent-sided way of doing things. That’s his angle, and my contracts allow him to be able to do that.

He also says that he is still in high demand but is unable to even work with other artists.

The problem is, I go to be a feature on their hit record, and then they have to go to 50 Cent to clear me on the record, and he says, ‘No.’ And they’re looking like, ‘Well, damn’ — cause if it wasn’t for that I would probably be on every record that’s out right now, cause everybody and their mama reaches out and gives me support.

While still under contract with 50, Young Buck has tried to keep his career going by releasing several mixtapes and his Young Buck Foundation will host a celebrity all-star weekend in August to raise money for flood victims and children who need school supplies.

That’s gotta be tough for Young Buck.  Hopefully once his contract runs out he can get back on his feet.
