TI Gets Visit from Fiancée

After being sent to an Arkansas prison to serve his prison sentence, rapper TI has allowed his fiancée to make a trip to visit him.

Incarcerated for attempting to purchase fire arms from a undercover agent, TI born Clifford Harris, was adamant that he would not receive any visitors while serving his sentence.

However his soon to be wife and mother of two of his children, Tameka ‘Tiny’ Cottle made a trip to see the rapper who according to close associate and label mate, B.o.B or Bobby Ray  ‘doesn't want even want his kids to see him there. He doesn't want that image implanted in their heads, of him being in jail.’

The rapper is to remain in prison for one year and one day stemming from the 2007 incident.

Yo Gotti Arrested

Polo Grounds/J Records signee Yo Gotti was arrested this week after performing in Richmond, Virginia. Police were waiting to arrest the Tennessee rapper after the show. It is unclear what he was arrested for just yet.

The Lox to sign with Bad Boy?

After a tumultuous relationship there is a possibility that the Lox might release their latest Hip-Hop offering through Bad Boy.

Hailing Sean Combs as one of the ‘smartest business gangsters’ Lox front man Jadakiss has implied that the Yonkers trio might be linking back up with the label after a ten year hiatus.

Talking this weekend to Hot 97 DJ Miss info, Jadakiss explained how the discussion of the two entities linking came about. “It started off with him just throwing it out there as a joke but I guess when he thought about it, how huge it could be with us linking back with him after ten years, all the marketing he could put around it, Ciroc ads, he's one of the smartest business gangsters that ever touched this industry.

And he knows everything that we went through, so the checks are gonna have to be nice."
The album which is slated to be released late this year will be the first studio album from Jadakiss, Styles P and Sheek Louch since their 2000 We are the Streets album.

BEP make history

The Black Eyed Peas have constantly provided music that people obviously don’t mind paying for.

The Los Angeles based quartet have now gone and established themselves as the the most successful band this decade with their string of successive hits.

The will.i.am headed group have secured the most Top 40 hits this year with tracks like Where is the Love, Let’s Get it Started and their current chart smash Boom Boom Pow from their most recent album The E..N.D which has been downloaded over 2.4 million times.
