“Former Bad Boy rapper-turned-preacher Mase is being sued for not paying a jewelry bill. According to TMZ.com, Aydin and Company, a jeweler located in Atlanta, Ga., has filed suit against the Harlem native for skipping out on a $35,000 bill. The company filed suit in Georgia, claiming that Mase has been delinquent on several bills dating back to 2005. Read the rest of this entry »
“Rock-a-bye, baby, rock-a-bye”
Harlem World’s 1999 album The Movement was split between tracks that reflected the polarizing times. For every glittery track on the album, cross-wise there stood a bloody, gutter-dwelling antagonist like “100 Shiesty’s” and the vis-á-vis booth battle of “Pointing Fingers.” Read the rest of this entry »

The recent rally behind Lauryn Hill after her East Coast Rock The Bells stop will soon die down once fans remember the harsh truth — we lost Lauryn long years ago. Miseducation… Lauryn dropped out and even though she may make reappearances on stage & record, she will never be our Lauryn. Read the rest of this entry »

It’s moments such as these which make Diplomatic Immunity 1 sound that much better. For the remaining few who still held on the sliver of hope for a Dipset resurrection, kill the noise.
Earlier this year, Santana spoke on the alleged break up proclaiming that his “day one n*ggas, ain’t actin’ like my day one n*ggas”. Who knows if this was the inspiration for Cam’s new wordage, but whatever the reason is, he said it with more than enough emphasis in front of a packed house at B.B. Kings last week (the footage just leaked). In hindsight, it is sad to see a once powerful crew subjected to these sort of acts. But if Juelz does decide to respond, let’s all pray he doesn’t allow those Skull Gang characters within 200 feet of a working microphone and a record button.
As if things couldn’t get any stranger, one break up leads to the most unlikely of reunions.Over a decade removed from their classic collaboration, New York City’s greatest blacktop duo hits the studio again with Mase demanding “Diddy percent” for another comeback and Cam proclaiming “Murda’s home”. Money talks and beef ends, apparently. If my algebra serves me correctly, the situation looks like this:
– Jimmy is cool with Mase, Mase is cool with Jimmy.
– Jimmy wants to be cool with Cam, but Cam isn’t messing with Jim.
– Cam is cool with Mase, and Mase is cool with Cam, thus leaving Mase as the middle man.
Harlem World’s back (almost). Don’t expect Loon to be apart of the festivites, however.

On my word, Mase was a blessing and curse for his Harlem World experiment.
One side of the argument says he gave them the necessary star-power to even be noticed in a crowded rap world. But the stronger argument says, the Bad Boy affiliation handicapped them. Too much Read the rest of this entry »
