King of the south T.I. (who was actually granted permission by most ATL rappers to call himself that) is talking money now and days and we mean big money. After dropping his 7th studio album “Trouble Man: Heavy Is The Head”, the boss is no longer with his former 10 year record label, Atlantic Records. The rumor mill is spinning that T.I has been seen chatting it up with the likes of Dr.Dre over at Interscope/Aftermath, and some accusations of looking at Sony. However, the labels aren’t the shocker; as T.I. is reportedly looking for a 75$ Million dollar signing! Read more on this story after the jump…

As her buzz continues to grow, Azealia Banks continues to keep us wanting more with her out of the box releases. Today we’re presented with a new song titled Succubi, premiered at 40oz Van, where she acknowledges the fandom behind her Fantasea mixtape and that she is one of the most sought after feature artists for new tracks, but also serving as a Jim Jones diss! Bragging? We think not, as she as a lengthy resume to back up the cockiness. Being the face of Alexander Wang‘s new fashion line, and being the next “it” girl in many realms, it’s all makes sense. Check out the track above with official album artwork after the jump.

Karen Civil recently had a chance to catch up with Machine Gun Kelly, to discuss the “beef” with Interscope Records, the release and his thoughts of the single ‘Invincible‘, and making mends with Yelawolf.

The UK’s princess, M.I.A., has finally made a return with her new song Bad Girls. As part of Interscope’s mega three marketing scheme, they decided to release the video today. Featuring production from Danja, this middle eastern influenced beat tied in with this amazing video of full throttle tricks is a mind blowing duo. Showing off the latest trend from the far east, sand drifting, Maya reminds us, not only why bad girls do it well, but why she’s the baddest. I think I just dropped some tears. Check out the video above and pick up the song on iTunes now. If you leave a comment on the video, you may get a personal shoutout on February 10th.

MGK, the rising rapid-fire rapper from Cleveland who became the first MC in history to win the famed Amateur Night competition at the Apollo, has been signed to Bad Boy/Interscope Records. Information about his forthcoming debut album, Lace Up, will be announced in the near future. MGK has continuously impressed with his exciting and exhilarating live performances at SXSW and Bamboozled, as well as on the Warped and Lil Wayne tours, just to name a few. Far more than a rapper, he is quickly becoming the voice of a new generation as he attracts new fans with each show.

“The moment we started the EST 19XX movement during the recording of the Lace Up mixtape, I made a pledge to my fans to protect our brand and become the honest voice of our generation,” said MGK. “We represent the underdogs, the outcast, the uncool. We are a true cult with a loud voice.”

MGK first caught the attention of Bad Boy Entertainment CEO Sean “Diddy” Combs thanks to his online viral videos, including those of his memorable showcases at SXSW. The excitement grew after Combs heard mixtapes from MGK –especially Lace Up–and also MGK’s personal story, which had cultivated a devoted fan following.

“MGK is a breath of fresh air,” said Combs. “He’s not just a star, he’s a movement!” Added Harve Pierre, President of Bad Boy: “MGK is a great addition to the Bad Boy team. He speaks for a generation of kids who are just like him. Fans relate immediately to his lyrics, his flow and his energetic live performances.”
