For a sec, I thought I was at Mad Wednesdays. The words of Maria Davis were playin' in my head: "Now you see that's why our people don't have anything. Because we don't know how to go in places and act properly." Yes I witnessed the madness at the Seaport last night. And I didn't even feel safe in the VIP tent! That Jay-Z club scene in MTV's Diary where he goes after Beans played in my mind. "No one in this stage of my career should be in a situation like this." Damn you B.Dot! What am I doin'? What am I doin'? I'm damn near 40. No Noah Shebib. Seriously I don't blame Drake for the madness. Nor the NYPD. Sadly, I have to blame the good folks at Paper Magazine and the concert organizers. None of the acts performed! You can't have a gang of rambunctious youth standing on top of each for hours with no music or entertainment and not expect things to go ape shit eventually. Where was a DJ? Some tunes could've soothed the savage lil beasts. (No "Hard In The Paint") Hanson or not—this is hip-hop, goddamnit. Gotta give the people what they want or you best protect ya neck. 
Only thing worse than a woman scorned, is a desperate one. Minaj is the now. You're the past. Wanna change that fact? Than do somethin' about it. Last I checked, we're still waitin' for your first post-jail hit. No more interviews. Don't talk about it—be about it. The Queen Bee needs a buzz and rap beef isn't gonna get you back on the throne. Sorry, ma.
Nearly a year to the day Kanye terrorized Taylor Swift, Mr. West may have some really big plans. Can you say a G.O.O.D. Day in Music? Ha!

During their voyage, N.E.R.D. hit up French TV’s Le Grand Journal and performed their current single. Sorry, but we’re not fluent in French so head here for their interview. Nothing in stores September 7th. Um, très bien fellas.

Last night, Ron Ron brought his victorious anthem to J Lounge in downtown L.A., but this time with T-Pain. True purple and gold pride.
How ’bout a lil soul for your Saturday? With his contribution to Levi’s cool series, Tony Toni Tone’s former frontman remakes the Spinners classic which was written by Stevie Wonder. Study your lessons, kids.

Two nights ago, The Unit brought the Invitation Tour to Beantwon. In the above clip, 50 fires a shot at Diddy and a playful one at Yayo before Banks bangs out his new single. No Lloyd. No problem. Splash!

The King’s uncaged and along with the funky drummer he’s gonna deliver his “Yeah Ya Know (Takers)” single at Stephen Hill‘s big show manana. Stay tuned.
Another deleted scene from the Drake doc where he spits TML‘s leftover’s lyrics on New Orleans’ Q93.3. You still think it should’ve made the album? So true.
Eat your heart out, Hov. Now that Tha Dogg’s allowed back across the pond, he got to hold things down on the hip-hop front at this year’s Glastonbury festival. The good folks at Soul Culture got more footage to check out. Let’s pretend we were there.
You can’t stop this guy. Before introducing The-Dream at the big Def Jam party in LA last night, Khaled had to spit a few brief bars from the “All I Do Is Win (Remix)”. Exclusive Access has more of the festivities below which include performances by Big Sean, Jeremih, and Big Boi. Party on, party on, all night, niggas.
