50 Cent Questions Lil Wayne's "Tha Carter IV" Sales


50 Doubts Tha Carter IV Numbers Are Legit
Add 50 Cent to the number of people who are giving the side eye to Lil Wayne's eye popping first week sales number for Tha Carter IV.
With rumors running rampant that C4's numbers were somehow juiced up, Fif recently added his two cents to the situation.
"To be honest with you, Lil Wayne sales are a little suspect to me," he told Global Grind. "Because it was trending 600,000 pieces that week. And they didn't do a million copies, it was like 900,000."
He admitted that Tha Carter III, which sold over 1 million copies in its for week, generated enough buzz to do numbers, but he had reservations about the rapper's latest effort.
"Tha Carter III commanded that energy," Fif said, "but the last one that just came out, those numbers are funny."

'Bad Girl' Ms. Cat Talks Relationship With Drake

Bad Girls Club member Ms. Cat was recently on Philly's Hot 107.9 and was not shy about giving up the goods on her former relationship with Drizzy Drake.
The BGC 5 member revealed that she linked up with Aubrey during the “Best I Ever Had” video shoot and had a more than year long relationship with the rapper.
She also revealed why they broke up and the business on Drake's sex game.

On how she met Drake:
"We met on the set of “Best I Ever Had.” It was real cool! We sat on the bleachers on set directed by Kanye [West]. Having fun, tweeted each other back and forth–real cool. Never thought it would go anywhere just cool, kicking it. The next thing you know I'm in Toronto and we're having dinner.
He flew me out to Toronto and we started kicking it and liking each other. One flight turned into ten then the next thing you know I got a toothbrush in there and it's on."

Hot 107: How long did it take for you to get from just dating to a relationship?
Cat: Like a month. It was like 0 to 60.
Hot 107: You moved to Toronto?
Yeah, I was actually there and packed up and was like “I'm out….I'm in love.”

Hot 107: Did you meet his mom?
Cat: Yeah, she's a very nice lady.
Hot 107: Did she know you like, “Oh, what's your name again?” or she KNEW you?
Cat: Well, at first it was like that but then it was like, “Oh this hoe is still around, huh? Oh, she's still here.” After a while it was like, “Hey, Mom!” I'm from Philly and I'm in Toronto now…that's my boo.
Hot 107: How long did it take you to go from condom to no condom?
Cat:That's assuming there was ever one involved.

On if she was in love with Drake:
"Of course, it was an awesome relationship. I was in love, he was in love and by the way in the song he said he was in love, so don't try to switch it up now. I never mentioned you, you mentioned me. It was good. I'm talking family dinners and we in Whole Foods pushing the cart around. It was a regular relationship. I was in love and he was in love but at the end of the day he started getting a little bit too loose. Meaning he pops up in the tabloids with Maliah [Maliah Michel], trips to Jamaica that I wasn't invited to or never heard about. I'm from Philly and we don't go for that.

It's a problem [when] you had the kind of relationship we had. That was my dude; it wasn't somebody I was just kicking it with. If you were just kicking it, you can do what you wanna do but I was yours and you were mine."


On if He gave her gifts:
"He's a very kind-hearted individual. We traveled a lot and we shopped so of course the price tag got a little expensive. A Car, bills paid..but we were together so it wasn't like he was tricking."
On if he's well endowed:
He is a phenomenal “peach eater” and he is black and Jewish and the black side is Mandingo
.
On why they broke up:
"Well, we broke up because I wanted to do the Bad Girls Club and that was a whole big issue too. I was like, “I have my own career and I need to move forward to and he was kind of like “I really don't want you to go on there and embarrass me.” I was like, “Well, you know my career is my career. You know you're Drake and you're cool but I need to be cool too. I can't sit around and try to get pregnant by you and be a baby mama. I need to make a career for myself.”

[Videos] President Obama Stops By Jay Leno: Speaks On The NBA Lockout,Kardashians, Gaddafi & Occupy Wall Street

Last night, President Obama stopped by ‘The Tonight Show with Jay Leno’ to discuss various topics including the ongoing NBA lockout, why he is not so keen on “Keeping up with the Kardashians,” Halloween and  his visit to Roscoes Chicken and Waffles in LA. During the interview, the President also discussed the war in Iraq, the execution of Muammar Gaddafi and the Occupy Wall street movement. Check out excerpts from the interview below.
On the NBA lockout
Well, look, if you look at the NFL, they were able to settle theirs — and I think they understood. Players were making millions of dollars. Owners, some of us are worth billions of dollars. We should be able to figure out how to split a $9 billion pot so that our fans, who are allowing us to make all of this money, can actually have a good season. And I think the owners and the basketball players need to think the same way.

I think they need to remind themselves that the reason they are so successful is because a whole lot of folks out there love basketball. Basketball has actually done well, but these types of lockouts take a long time to recover from.
On “Keeping Up With The Kardashians”
I’m probably a little biased against reality TV [cue rimshot!], partly because there’s this program on C-Span called Congress. But no, I have not seen the show…[but] I think the girls have seen it.

On Muammar Gaddafi
Well, this is somebody who for 40 years, has terrorized his country and supported terrorism. And he had an opportunity during the Arab spring to finally let loose of his grip on power and to peacefully transition into democracy. We gave him ample opportunity, and he wouldn’t do it. And, obviously, you never like to see anybody come to the kind of end that he did, but I think it obviously sends a strong message around the world to dictators.

On why pictures of Osama Bin Laden’s dead body were not released to the public
There was a reason after Bin Laden was killed, for example, we didn’t release the photograph. You know, I think that there’s a certain decorum with which you treat the dead even if it’s somebody who has done terrible things.

On Occupy Wall street
Look, people are frustrated, and that frustration has expressed itself in a lot of different ways. It expressed itself in the Tea Party. It’s expressing itself in Occupy Wall Street. I do think that what this — what this signals is that people in leadership, whether it’s corporate leadership, leaders in the banks, leaders in Washington, everybody needs to understand that the American people feel like nobody is looking out for them right now. And, traditionally, what held this country together was this notion that if you work hard, if you are playing by the rules, if you are responsible, if you are looking out for your family, you are showing up to work every day and doing a good job, you’ve got a chance to get ahead. You’ve got a chance to succeed. And, right now, it feels to people like the deck is stacked against them, and the folks in power don’t seem to be paying attention to that. So if everybody is tuned in to that message and we are working every single day to figure out how do we give people a fair shake and how do we make sure that everybody is doing their fair share, then people won’t be occupying the streets because they will have a job and they will feel like they are able to get ahead. But, right now, they are frustrated. And part of my job over the next year is to make sure that if they are not seeing it out of Congress at a minimum, they are seeing it out of their President, somebody who is going to be fighting for them.

On what he order at Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles
Wings and waffles with hot sauce. Originally, it was just a way to be out there and say hi to everybody, but once we got in the car, it smelled pretty good.

Also watch Obama’s visit to Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles yesterday morning.

Lloyd On Power 105's 'The Breakfast Club'
While making his press stop in NYC, Lloyd dropped by The Breakfast Club to talk Irv Gotti's negative comments and his previous beef with Miguel.
As previously reported, the former Murder Inc. head slammed Lloyd for underselling after leaving his label,
"Lloyd I have no love for.[..] You went platinum with Gotti! He could walk right past me, he could get hit by a car I'd say, "Oh word he got hit by a car? Okay...B.J. let's go get something to eat..."
He also slammed him for doing songs with people like 50 Cent, a known enemy of Ja Rule and The Murder Inc. fam,
“You was waiting to s*ck these dudes off. [Lloyd] couldn't wait to s*ck him off!”
According to Lloyd however Gotti's just in a "weird place" and his disses don't bother him.
He tells the The Breakfast Club,
"I gotta laugh at it cause it's funny.  I don't really dwell on stuff like this...I personally feel like it sounds to me like he's a lot bitter. He might be in a weird place in his life, his career and he's lashing out. He's taking it on me..."
The singer also made sure to touch on (pause) his previous war of words with singer Miguel.
The R&B stars had a small squabble after Miguel accused Lloyd of copying his hairstyle.

Drake Finishes "Take Care"



Take Care Finished
Drizzy Drake has finally finished his sophomore album Take Care.
As previously reported, the project was set to be released October 24 but was pushed back to November.
Drizzy released a statement confirming the album's push back saying,
The new date for Take Care is November 15th, 2011. I managed to create this album in my hometown of Toronto and the thoughts and stories I wanted to get across just became so clear. It truly felt like when I was here 3 years ago making So Far Gone. So I have completed 19 songs (17 on physical and 2 on bonus), and have run into a roadblock of clearing 3 samples in time to make the October 24th date.
My options were to take the songs off and make the birthday release happen, or to take an extra couple weeks to get the paper work right and give you the album they way I NEED you to hear it. The choice was clear as day for me. November 15th you will get Take Care the exact way I created it with no trimmings. This music means too much to me to get attached to dates and I do apologize for the delay but I promise that it is only for the benefit of our experience together. Club Paradise Tour will also be moved to when students are back from the Christmas/New Year break so that I can get to more schools. New dates will be released in the next week…see you all soon.
Late Wednesday Drake announced that Take Care was finished  tweeting,
