Kanye & Drake Put Issues Aside (Studio Picture)

With past issues between Kanye West and Drake, it seemed pretty unexpected to see them working together...but it's going down..Check Out The Picture of the two artists in the studio (recently).

The issues between the two started when Drake took a few shots at Jay-Z and Kanye when talking about the two doing an album together then later Drake's producer relayed a story of Kanye being upset at him "borrowing" his sound. Later Drake told Popeater that his music is "life driven," adding Kanye's are "Ego Driven."

Either way, with both artists having projects coming out this year (Drake’s sophomore album, Take Care, and Kanye West’s collaborative album with Jay-Z, Watch the Throne), it seems like they have put past issues behind and are working together!

Forbes Names Jay-Z, Diddy & 50 Cent Top 5

If in 2010 he was the third richest rapper, this year, P. Diddy sits comfortably in first place on Forbes’ list.

The icing on the cake, P. Diddy is paying the luxury to dethrone king Jay Z, who previously reigned supreme over the realm of hip hop.

With a fortune estimated at $ 475 million by Forbes magazine, Sean Combs owes all these money to his record label Bad Boy, his Sean John clothing line and other different activities.

The rapper even has a brand of vodka, Ciroc. With so much money, no wonder he throws them into the crowd.

“To be honest, on that list, I was on the cover of Forbes back in ’98,” Diddy said in an interview with MTV News. “I been on that list. I don’t really get caught up into the list. I think people think that I have that money actually sitting at home in the basement.”

In second place comes Jay Z, with $ 450 million sleeping on his bank account and a woman who’s not idle either.

Beyonce has a personal fortune estimated at more than $ 60 million and with Jay Z, she forms one of the most powerful couples in showbiz.

The two lovebirds are even included the Book of Records. A luxury not given to everyone.

On the third place, Dr. Dre is fairly comfortable with his $ 125 million. In fourth place, we discover Bird Man on a par with 50 Cent.

Superproducer/rapper Dr. Dre ranks third with $125 million, fueled by past earnings generated from his own career and by helping to launch those of Snoop Dogg and Eminem. Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson, a onetime Dr. Dre protege who reaped a nine-figure payday from the sale of Vitamin Water to Coca-Cola, rounds out the top five in a tie with Cash Money Records cofounder Bryan "Birdman" Williams at $100 million.

Eminem Outlasts Teflon Don

When it comes to album sales numbers do not lie thats for sure. Despite a false start on the album sales reports, Eminem never stepped off his thrown atop the charts. For the fifth week in a row Em' has rapped his hands around the neck of sales, selling and estimated 187,000 copies of 'Recovery'. The only artist anywhere insight of Shady's rearview mirror is Rick Ross in second, who moved around 176,000 copies in his 'Teflon Don' debut. Although this is the closest competition we all expect Eminem's reign to continue for the time being. For the record Drake, who sits in the #4 slot (88,000) has only sold half as many albums as Eminem, (1,670,000) estimated thus far.

Bow Wow Says He Doesn't Get Credit He Deserves

New Cash Money records rapper Bow Wow recently spoke about his time in music and why he feels he doesn't get the credit he deserves...speaking on things like sold out shows, Bow Wow mentions Eminem and Jay-Z.

"I feel like a lot of dudes who get recognition in the game, I've been doing it longer than them and I think people are stuck in the right now, that they forget about the past and that's one thing that I don't do," Bow Wow explained in an interview referring to his underrated status. "That's a discredit to somebody's past and especially their numbers, because like [Jay-Z] said: 'They don't lie, stats don't lie.' I just get tired of that sometimes, when you work so hard and you're passionate about what you do, you want to get acknowledged for it. Other than Eminem and Jay-Z, I can't tell you another rapper who has sold out Madison Square Garden five times, besides me! I'm in that bracket, but people won't say that because they are so caught up with the past and Lil' Bow Wow and are not focused on the current." (The Wrap Up)

Lil Wayne Reacts To Jay-Z In "H.A.M."

Just weeks after Jay-Z and Kanye West releaesd their new "H.A.M." single, it is still turning heads as it mentions not only Birdman bit also Lil Wayne. Here is what Lil Wayne had to say...

According to Weezy, who heard the track personally through Kanye West, he isn't looking to start another competition with Jay. Wayne told MTV News that he didn't ask 'Ye about the alleged dig: "I wouldn't ask him about a Jay-Z line because he's not Jay-Z." That doesn't mean Wayne wouldn't respond to the line, even if he hasn't returned fire just yet. "Me and my wit, given my wit, I would probably play off of it," Wayne explained. "But I wouldn't make it a competition, because actually, the subject that he's talking about in that line, I can't box with the card. I'd be the first one to tell you that, given my wit, and the type of person that I am, I'd capitalize and I'd play off of it. Yeah, I definitely would." (MTV)
