Lil Kim Says She’ll do a Record with Nicki Minaj if There is a “Check”

Desperate times they say calls for different measures as the Queen B Lil’ Kim has revealed that she’ll work oo a track with her arch-rival Nicki Minaj if there is money in it for her. In an interview with Rap-up when asked the question Kim replied

The only way that’s gonna happen is it’s definitely gonna take a check. At the end of the day, I’m a boss. I was a hustler before I was an entertainer

Nothing was off limits in the interview as she was asked whether she had listened to Minaj’s debut album Pink Friday. To this she replied that she had listened to it but “couldn’t listen to the whole thing”; admitting that she doesn’t think Nicki is a “horrible artist” but she believes people are giving her more credit than she deserves.
Adding that Nicki didn’t make her own career rather her record label Universal/Cash Money did.

Duhh Nicki already admitted that in her song “Moment for Life” with a line that goes

Weird: Lady GaGa Believes She has Two Souls
Now it’s another trip through crazy town as your attention seeking pop star Lady GaGa reveals that she believes she possesses two souls inside of her (Weird? Yeah i Know)
One (obviously) belongs to her and the other is that of her dead paternal aunt Joanne Germanotta who died of lupus at age 19 just before she(Gaga) was born.
GaGa real name Stefani Germanotta told WWD that she believes she has two hearts

I think I actually carry two souls in my body, and that I'm living out the rest of her life and her goodness - she died a virgin, she died never having experienced all these things that we all get to love and experience in our lives. I think that I work in her image. I work in this life as part pop singer and part humanitarian, and to do great things for people because she was a good person and I don't think she had enough time to do enough good.

 Taio Cruz Admits Kesha is the ‘Most Fun’ Person He has Worked With
Taio Cruz who has worked with many people ranging from Kylie Minogue to Travie McCoy has admitted that out of all the people he has had collaborations with, Kesha is the ‘most fun’ to work with.


He revealed this during an interview with Uk’s Radio 1 DJ Fearne Cotton

I think Kesha has been the most fun, I love her, she's crazy.
'There's no fakeness, the way she comes across as crazy and that is really who she is, but she's a sweet girl at the core as well, so it's just fun really.'

What do you expect from the Queen of sing-rap who brushes her teeth with a bottle of Jack Daniels - fun

This is the second good comment Miss Serbert has gotten as rapper Outkast had already commented on her rapping skills on the track – Sleazy. He said he loved the track (which he featured on in the remix) and added that she could totally have a career in rap.



Record Label Drops David Archuleta, Suffers Sophomore Slump

American Idol Alum David Archuleta has been dropped by his label Jive Records. A label rep confirmed this to The Hollywood Reporter saying “David was released from our roster”

Am guessing this is because of the poor sales of his latest effort The Other Side of Down which according to Nielsen Soundscan, as of February 18, has shifted 67,000 copies. It has also failed to gain traction on the charts and on the radio. This is a far cry in comparison to his 2008 self-titled debut which was certified platinum.

A certain artist also at Jive will also want to be released from the label *cough* Ciara.
