Ice Cube wants to do another Friday


Definitely one of my favorite movies of all time is Friday. To this day it still makes me laugh.  In a recent interview Ice Cube had this to say:

Do you think you’ll ever do another ‘Friday’ movie? What would those guys be up to today?
I want to. But I don’t want to do it without Chris Tucker. That’s what people want. I really want to give people what they want, especially doing it for a fourth time. We can’t just go through a movie without giving the people exactly what they want. I’ve been trying to convince Chris to do it. Just say “yeah,” it’s alright … I see Smokey working at a rehab center. [laughs] Craig and Day-Day are probably selling weed by now, get busted, have to go rehab with Smokey, try to convince Smokey to smoke a joint. [laughs] That’d be pretty cool.

Drake Interview




Drake explains to Sway his methodology when approaching a mixtape versus an album. In his own words, he says:
“A mixtape can’t be the songs that don’t make your album, or songs that aren’t good enough to make your album make your mixtape — unless you’re that good. There aren’t that many people that are that good. I’m not that good. That mixtape [So Far Gone] is me working my hardest. It wasn’t ‘Oh, here are the songs I’m gonna give away to you ’cause I have better songs coming.’ A mixtape has become an album.
In some regards, Drake’s right. Although an album still is an album, a mixtape serves as a litmus test. Sway mentioned that the last new rapper to have a significant impact was 50 Cent. Not only was Fif’s tape 50 Cent Is The Future good, but it lead to something even better: Get Rich Or Tryin’. We’ll see if the cards are in Drizzy’s favor June 15th.

Eminem Renames "Relapse 2" to "Recovery"



Last night, Eminem’s Twitter displayed a message saying that Relapse 2 was dead, presumably because of a name change. Apparently Relapse 2 was supposed to be constructed of all the song that didn’t make it onto the first Relapse, but then they went ahead and threw those first few songs from the second project onto The Refill once Relapse 2 started to become a full body of work. This namechange reflects that this is now a project that stands on its own, but is still in a way linked to Em’s last album.
The first single is produced by Jim Jonsin, and as of right now, the album also has production by Just Blaze, Boi-1da and DJ Khalil.
Eminem’s Recovery drops June 22nd.
