FREDDIE GIBBS TALKS FALL OUT WITH JEZZY!
Has life after CTE been good for you?
Life after CTE…life been good. Before CTE and after CTE. I never took a dollar from cuz anyway. It ain’t never been about life being good. My life been the same. I’ve been the same n*gga. I’ve been doing my thing. Still been feeding my n*ggas. Still been feeding my family. Like I said, I never took a dollar ever from Jeezy in my life. Everything been on my grind and my hustle. I put BFK (Baby Face Killa) out myself with no support from Jeezy. I shot and did videos myself with no support from Jeezy. Like that it matters. Like I said, I got my own core, my fanbase. At the end of the day, I been my own man.
This album is going to be definitive of that fact. It’s going to show people, ‘Look, I didn’t need cuz, cuz needed me.’ I was bringing something to the table at CTE. I don’t need CTE. I went to CTE because I f*cked with CTE. Because I had love for what cuz had. It was a genuine love, that’s why I went over there for nothing. ‘Man look, let’s partner up. Let’s do this.’ I f*cked with you. I respect you. Now, that respect is gone.
Was Jeezy supportive of you doing your own thing?
F*ck no. Anything he tells you, it’s going to be fake. I am going to give you the real. He gonna give you the sugarcoated version. That’s the difference between me and him. He gonna give you the sugarcoated sh*t, I am going to give you the real. At first, when that whole split happened, I was being political about it. I was thinking, ‘Man, I don’t want to f*ck up my relationship.’ But f*ck that sh*t, my n*gga. I’m feeding the whole city. That n*gga don’t do sh*t for me. I am going to point a n*gga out when he bogus and he was bogus for not owing up to his business relationship and doing what he was supposed to do business-wise. Like I said, I never needed the n*gga to do nothing for me, but do what you said what you were gonna do. You don’t hold true to your word, I don’t respect you. So I don’t respect no n*gga that don’t hold true to his word. All that sh*t you rapping; I don’t respect none of that sh*t.

DID U HEAR: CLAYTON ARMSTRONG ESCAPES FROM PRISON AFTER CONFESSING HIS ROLE IN BIGGIES MURDER
Clayton Armstrong Hill, a former member of the Nation of Islam, somehow managed to successfully escape out of the medium security prison where he was detained. Hill was incarcerated for pleading guilty to over 100 fraudulent federal income tax returns in the mid-2000's, and then made a shocking confession in July 2011. Hill came forward to confess to his role as an accessory after the fact in the murder of Notorious B.I.G. He made the confession in his memoir "Diary of an Ex-Terrorist," and also elaborated on the confession during an interview with HipHopDX.
According to his confession to DX, Hill allegedly took the gun away from the shooter, and the Nation of Islam was heavily involved in covering up Biggie's murder.
"[Dawoud Muhammad] stated to me that he was on the run for the murder [of The Notorious B.I.G.]. He disclosed that he was the shooter of The Notorious B.I.G. because he (Dawoud) was a former Blood gang member and was paid to do so."
It was discovered that he had escaped after a bed count was conducted and Hill was missing from his cell.
"I was notified by officials ... that inmate Clayton Armstrong Hill walked off the grounds. A bed count was conducted to verify Hill's status, and at approximately 6:40 p.m. Hill was identified as missing," said Deputy U.S. Marshal Clay M. Cleveland noted in an affidavit, as reported by Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Hill apparently made his escape last week.

REAL RAP... RAPPER CONVICTED OVER LYRICS
Hopeful Texas rapper Anthony Johnson was charged with the murder of his So Fly Entertainment business partner Romuald Ngande recently and will face life in prison. Ngande suffered from a fatal gunshot wound inflicted by an AK-47 assault rifle.
Johnson originally claimed self-defense, and told prosecutors that Ngande was angry after he was denied a ride to work. Johnson reportedly put a gun in Ngande's mouth, and shot him when Ngande reached for his pocket. Apparently, Ngande was unarmed and was simply reaching for a lighter.
"He grabbed it real quick and said, 'Go ahead. Do it, do it. Blow out my brains," Johnson told jurors. "He reached into his pocket. I just saw a gleam of silver."
Johnson, however, failed to help his own case. While imprisoned, he was busy writing rap lyrics. Lyrics that would later be used against him in court. One of the lines reads, "I'm a beast, I'm a beast/ that cannot be tamed."
After six-plus hours of deliberation, the jury rejected his claim of self-defense.

BEEF: @50CENT ENDS BEEF WITH INTERSCOPE
Since his introduction into mainstream Hip Hop, 50 Cent has been involved in several rap beefs with various artists. He embraced playing the role of the bad guy and it even reached as far as the offices of Interscope Records. It wasn't necessarily beef between the G-Unit leader and Interscope executives, but 50 did have his issues and in a recent interview, he spoke about his past problems and says he's moved on.
"With Interscope, look, all artists are going to express their frustrations with the system at some point," 50 told SOHH. "I've had all the success in my career with Interscope Records. You know? So when everybody is there and working, that's a powerful system there but a lot of people that are walking around the building now are new faces so I'm reintroducing myself and creating a new focus with the people that are actually there."
Earlier in the year, 50 Cent discussed his prior differences with Interscope Records, citing "audit issues" as the main issue.
"They're in full support of me now. We cleared up audit issues. That's always an issue, when you get to the final album or the final requirement you end up going through the books with everything that you've done," he said. "Once those things are resolved, everyone is ready to get back to work, and that's where we're at."

SAY WORD: JAY-Z $50MIL... CHAMPAGNE MONEY
Although this may not be new information, it’s interesting because it’s never really been publicized on a major level. Jay-Z’s love for Ace Of Spades champagne is not a genuine as you may have thought it was. According to the book “Empire State of Mind: How Jay-Z Went from Street Corner to Corner Office” Jigga man’s estimated annual earnings from the brand are over $4 million yearly and he has equity in the brand worth about $50 million. Turns out Diddy is not the only one making serious bank off slanging liquor to his audience.
When he waved off the Cristal bottle in his Show Me What You Got music video for the then-unknown Armand De Brignac gold bottle? Genius marketing.

GTV NEWS: DETROIT BROKE BY DECEMBER?!?!
A Detroit official says the city financial condition is rapidly deteriorating and City Hall could run out of cash by mid-December.
City program management director William Andrews made the assessment Monday at a meeting of the Financial Advisory Board, a city-state panel overseeing Detroit's finances under its fiscal stability agreement with the state.
Andrews says Detroit's cash-flow crisis is "more challenging than it's ever been" and worse than a month ago.
He says city will need to find new revenue sources.
Advisory board chairwoman Sandy Pierce says despite voter repeal of the emergency manager law, the financial stability agreement and the advisory board remain intact.
Mayor Dave Bing and Gov. Rick Snyder agreed on state oversight as an alternative to a state financial takeover.

CAN U FUCKERS READ: DR. CORNELL WEST HAS SOMETHING TO SAY...
WE PURPOSELY LEFT THE QUESTIONS OF THIS INTERVIEW OUT... ALL WERE ONLY INTERESTED IN THE ANSWERS...
DR. WEST SHARES HIS THOUGHTS ON PRES. OBAMA & RECENT ELECTION
I think that it’s morally obscene and spiritually profane to spend $6 billion on an election, $2 billion on a presidential election, and not have any serious discussion—poverty, trade unions being pushed against the wall dealing with stagnating and declining wages when profits are still up and the 1 percent are doing very well, no talk about drones dropping bombs on innocent people. So we end up with such a narrow, truncated political discourse, as the major problems—ecological catastrophe, climate change, global warming. So it’s very sad. I mean, I’m glad there was not a right-wing takeover, but we end up with a Republican, a Rockefeller Republican in blackface, with Barack Obama, so that our struggle with regard to poverty intensifies.
“…Lincoln isn’t Lincoln if Frederick Douglass isn’t pushing him. FDR isn’t FDR if A. Philip Randolph and Eleanor Roosevelt aren’t pushing him. LBJ isn’t LBJ if MLK isn’t pushing him.
“We don’t believe in making excuses. We believe that if [Obama] is not pushed, he’s going to be a transactional president and not a transformational president. And we believe that the time is now for action and no longer accommodation. But that doesn’t happen unless you’re pushed.”
I love Brother Mike Dyson… but we’re living in a society where everybody is up for sale. Everything is up for sale. And he and Brother Sharpton and Sister Melissa and others, they have sold their souls for a mess of Obama pottage. And we invite them back to the black prophetic tradition after Obama leaves. But at the moment, they want insider access, and they want to tell those kind of lies. They want to turn their back to poor and working people.“In the president’s forward motion in the second term to establish a legacy—and I don’t think that being president ought to be about a legacy; it ought to be about advancing the best for the American people. But in this conversation about his legacy, I want to see what risk he’s going to take. Is he going to put himself on the line for poor people? Is he going have an honest conversation about drones? As Doc said earlier, you know, is he ever going to say the word prison—the phrase, “prison-industrial complex”? Reagan wouldn’t say “AIDS.” Bush wouldn’t say “climate change.” Will Obama say “prison-industrial complex”? I mean, I want to know where the risk is that equates to being the most progressive president ever. That’s the—I don’t get that.”
