From FSD: However, as bad as this news sounds, he received the minimum sentence for both charges, 7 years for the gun and 37 months for the bank robbery.By law, these two terms have to be served consecutively, but he does gets credit for the time he’s served and will finish out 85% of his sentence.  At the end of his sentence he’ll be eligible for placement in a halfway house.

Lloyd Feat. Pusha T "Pusha"

Still working on his first album post-The Inc., Lloyd, or Young Goldie as he refers to himself on Twitter now, hooks up with Pusha produced by the Runners. Seeing as how all of Lloyd’s album have been enjoyable (Street Love being the best),  I’m expecting nothing less this time around.

Since we’re on the topic of The Clipse, however, just know the album is CRAZY and the collabs…well, you wouldn’t believe me if I told you.

Chris Brown feat. Lil Wayne & Swizz Beatz – "I Can Transform Ya"

I said from the moment the whole fiasco with Rihanna broke back in February, all Chris Brown needs to do is lay low for a minute and come back with a hit single. If he did that, then his career would be just fine. He laid low for a minute, but it remains to be seen if this is the hit I was referring to. I say that because I’ve yet to hear it.

Well, for what it’s worth, he nabbed two of the biggest hitmakers in the industry (Wayne & Swizzy), so that’s half the battle right there. If you have some free time or just want to explore a portion of the internet you’ve never visited before, check out Chris Breezy’s official site.

Thank ILL for the link.

wyclef_jean

Grammy winner Wyclef Jean is going to college to further his education.

I am enrolling in Berklee College in Boston to get my bachelor’s degree in music! That’s how important education is to me. I plan to work with Rev. Al Sharpton because that’s how important stressing the importance of education to children is to me,” the musician announced during the Congressional Black Caucus Phoenix Awards Dinner in Washington, DC on Saturday.

The former member of the hip-hop collective The Fugees was presented the George Collins Award for Community Service for his work as a Goodwill Ambassador to Haiti.

I’m also not running for president of Haiti,” Jean emphasized during his speech, before adding: “Though I wish my uncle would.”
