Here Are The Sales Projections For Gucci Mane's "Everybody Looking"

How much does Gucci's comeback measure up to in sales? Gucci Mane has Everybody Looking with the release of his new album, but does he have everybody buying? Judging by the initial sales projections, he's got a fairly solid number of spectators opening their wallets. According to Hits Daily Double, Guwop is set to move 69,000-74,000 units of his new album, including streams, making it 45-50,000 in pure sales. These days, that's certainly nothing to scoff at. It's within the same ballpark of his 2009 album, The State Vs. Radric Davis, which sold 89,000 first week (which, to be fair, was before streaming came into the equation). It's expected to debut at #2 behind (you guessed it) Drake's VIEWS. Of course, we won't have any official figure until later in the week, so if you're looking for Wop to do numbers this week, make sure to grab the LP on iTunes.

New York Knicks Sign Amar'e Stoudemire So He Can Retire As A Knick

"Once a Knick always a Knick" The New York Knicks have officially signed Amar'e Stoudemire, but only as a technicality so that he could retire as a member of the Knicks. Not the Phoenix Suns, the team that he was with for his first 8 seasons and experienced the best years of his career with. The New York Knicks. The six-time All Star (five of which were as a member of the Suns) made the announcement today in which he said his heart has remained in the Big Apple and proclaimed, "Once a Knick, always a Knick." Stoudemire played a crucial role in bringing the Knicks somewhat into relevance back in 2010 which led to them landing Carmelo Anthony via trade, but there's no denying that this is a very bizarre scenario considering most remember his best years as a dominant force for the Phoenix Suns.

The album will be released via Apple Music and feature the lead single “Pick Up The Phone” with Young Thug & Quavo.

The Memes From Joe Budden's Car Chase Are Hilarious

Joe Budden is a meme now. A pack of young Drake fans decided it would be funny to "pull up" on Joe Budden at his house Sunday and film the encounter on social media. Budden reacted by initiating a wild car chase after the kids and, once he had caught up to them, got out and menaced them at their car while clutching a handful of rocks. Naturally, the internet has collectively meme-ified this ridiculous turn of events. Joe Budden is now, among other things, an Olympic sprinter, a character in GTA, and the dude from Temple Run.

Did Drake Take Shots At Tory Lanez On His "Summer Sixteen" Tour?

Kicking off the "Summer Sixteen" Tour, Drake wastes little time in sending some shots at Tory Lanez. There looks to be a new chapter in the on-going feud between Toronto artists Drake & Tory Lanez. On Wednesday night, Drake’s “Summer Sixteen” Tour rolled into Austin, Texas, where the 6 God wasted little time in sending some subtle shots jabs at what people are believing is aimed at Tory Lanez. To kick off the show, Drake performed his hit song “Summer Sixteen,” and decided to slightly alter the opening lyrics to his verse, rapping “All you boys doing fake controllas wanna be me a little?" While the lyrics could be intended for Tyga, who recently released a “1 Of 1” song that sounds eerily similar to “Controlla,” it’s safe to say that’s not the case, and Drizzy had Tory on his mind when switching things up. Coincidentally, Tory just so happened to release a new remix over Drake’s “Controlla” a couple weeks ago, which has been receiving good feedback from fans. Add that to their already previous issues and you have yourself the latest chapter in the "New Toronto" saga.

The Game, Snoop Dogg & Minister Farrakhan Host Anti-Violence Gang Summit

Earlier today, The Game and Snoop Dogg hosted a citywide summit that encouraged gang members to unite against stopping violence within their communities. Earlier this month, shortly after the police killings of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile, The Game and Snoop Dogg helped kickstart a campaign called H.U.N.T., which stands for "Hate Us Not Today." Their first initiative was to lead a peaceful march to the LAPD Headquarters, where both rappers met with top-ranking officials from the department. Earlier today, H.U.N.T. teamed up with the Nation of Islam and Minister Farrakhan to host a citywide forum that specifically called for the presence of gang leaders in the greater Los Angeles area. The goal of the summit was to unite men from opposing gangs in an effort to bring forth solutions about putting an end to violence within the black and brown communities. The Game announced the event earlier today on his Instagram. He began the invitation by writing, "Los Angeles, on behalf of myself, Snoop Dogg, and the honorable Louis Farrakhan, I want to extend the invitation to all CRIPS, BLOODS, ESE's & all other gang members, major figures & GANG LEADERS from every hood in our city as well as the surrounding cities to our meeting 11am this morning."

Rae Sremmurd & Migos To Drop "Look Alive" Remix

Doesn't get more lit than this. Rae Sremmurd is about to drop the "Look Alive" remix, featuring the Migos. Big-time remix incoming. The two waviest groups in the game, one a duo and one a trio -- both made up of blood relatives, are teaming up to drop a remix of one of the year's hottest club songs: "Look Alive." The track, released in April, is the third single off Rae Sremmurd's upcoming sophomore album, SremmLife 2. For the remix, brothers Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi have recruited the three cousins who make up the Migos. The club is hypnotized by a melodic spell any time the DJ drops "Look Alive." Now just imagine what'll happen with the addition of three saucy new verses from Quavo, Offset, and Takeoff. "Look Alive" is produced by Mike Will Made-It.

Boosie Badazz: Baton Rouge Violence Won't Stop Until Killer Cops Are Convicted

The Baton Rouge rap hero speaks on today's shooting that killed three police officers in his hometown. He fears that the violence will only continue until the officers who have killed black civilians are tried and convicted. The city of Baton Rouge has been in anguish ever since the police killing of Alton Sterling. Today, the Louisiana capital was struck with more tragedy, as a gunman went on a rampage that killed three Baton Rouge police officers and injured three others. The suspect, whom has been identified as Gavin Eugene Long of Kansas City, Missouri, has been killed. He was an ex-Marine, and today was reportedly his 29th birthday. One of the biggest celebrities to come out of Baton Rouge, Boosie Badazz, has shared his thoughts on the madness that has recently transpired in his hometown. Speaking to TMZ, Boosie explains how the killing of Alton Sterling, whose funeral was held yesterday, has struck anger in most everyone he has talked to in Baton Rouge, both young an old. He says that both police and civilians have found themselves in a precarious situation, and he believes that the climate will only continue to get more hostile until officers like those involved in the killing of Alton Sterling are held responsible and punished accordingly. "If that guy don't get indicted and sent to prison for life," says Boosie, "It's gonna be another one. It's gonna be another shooting."

Joe Budden Responds To Drake's Diss On French Montana's "No Shopping"

Joe Budden hits Drake with a crying Jordan meme after hearing the OVO boss' diss on French Montana's new single, "No Shopping." As promised, tonight's episode of OVO Sound Radio included the premiere of French Montana's new Drake-featuring single: "No Shopping." News of the collab first broke in May, when French Montana shared a brief snippet of the song, during which Drake can be heard beginning his verse by rapping, "Pump, pump it up." The line was presumed to be a shot at Joe Budden, who had recently given VIEWS a decidedly negative review on his podcast. Now that the full version of "No Shopping" is here, it's clear that the "Pump It Up" reference was no accident. Much of Drake's verse is directed at Budden, whom he denounces as a one-hit wonder. "You let me turn into the n*gga that you almost was," he raps. Drake doesn't mention Budden by name until toward the end of his verse, when he raps, "Last week, Budden runnin' in the room / This week sold 1.2." See the full lyrics of Drake's "No Shopping" verse at the bottom of the page. Judging by his recent tweets and retweets, Budden has heard "No Shopping," and he has already proclaimed himself to be the victor of the beef, clearly feeling that Drake's bars on the new French Montana single don't stand up to the two diss tracks he has already put out, starting at the end of last month with "Making a Murderer" and then another one, "Wake," less than a week later. Budden provided his first response to "No Shopping" by retweeting an image of a drained iPhone battery, suggesting that Drake's latest raps are the opposite of "Charged Up." He then posted another meme -- not exactly a creative one, but a successful effort nonetheless -- showing the crying Jordan face pasted onto the head of the OVO owl. Budden has since responded to a few of his followers who also agreed that Drake's "No Shopping" response was lackluster.

Fat Joe, Remy Ma & French Montana Have Another Single Coming

"All The Way Up" was just the beginning. Fat Joe and Remy Ma's "All The Way Up" is the surprise hit of the summer; a smash single that is both rooted in New York's history, and in touch with the current rap landscape. The French Montana-assisted track is still everywhere, particularly in NY, but Fat Joe has revealed in a new interview that he and Remy will be taking the same formula to the follow-up next month. "New single August 1st. It's called 'Looks Like I'm Cooking'. If it ain't broke don't fix it. Me, Remy, and French," he said. "We going out to Dubai to shoot the video next week. We're gonna be acting real ignorant in the desert, and look for some white tigers." The single, of course, is slated for Joe and Remy's upcoming collaborative album, Plata o Plomo, which should be on its way soon.

Gucci Mane Set To Headline "Stop The Violence" Concert In Mississippi

Gucci Mane & Friends will be taking the stage for a "Stop The Violence" event in Mississippi come September. It looks like Gucci Mane has lined up his second formal post-prison concert.

Ty Dolla $ign Debuts "No Justice" Featuring Big TC

This is the second single off of Ty Dolla $ign's upcoming mixtape "Campaign." Ty Dolla $ign is gearing up to release his next mixtape Campaign. We’ve already heard the title track “Campaign” featuring Future, a prototypical turn up jam. We now have the second premiere from the tape, in the form of three Instagram videos that run consecutively into one another. “No Justice” features Ty Dolla $ign’s big brother Big TC, and is far more sobering than the first single. The video is a simple but powerful mix of up close video of Big TC and Ty Dolla singing (separately, as Big TC is still incarcerated), cut together with footage and images of the many, many people who have had their lives taken by police officers over the past few years.

Ray J Might Be The First Person To Sue Kanye West Over “Famous” Video

Ray J might be taking up Kanye's dare to sue him. It appears Kanye’s “wish” to be sued over the controversial “Famous” video may actually come true. According to reports & the latest edition of Heat Magazine, Ray J & his manager, David Weintraub, are considering taking legal action against the G.O.O.D. Music CEO for his naked inclusion in the latest video off The Life Of Pablo. "We’re talking about potentially doing something," Weintraub told Heat. "There’s too many times Kanye has done this. You can’t really continue to use people’s likenesses without either compensation or clearance. It seems to be becoming an issue—this is like the fourth time in six months he’s done this. We haven’t really worked anything out. There were kind of discussions but it’s getting old, so our legal team is working out what we want to do with everything." Last week, Entertainment Tonight spoke with Ray J, who apparently isn’t happy about the mess the controversial video has caused not only for himself, but for his fiancé Princess as well. Ray J says “I'm engaged. My marriage is all messed up 'cause of craziness. I'm not part of nothing crazy. I walk down a good path. My fiancee tripping. It's all bad in my world, and that ain't cool. Don't put me part of nothing that's weird, that don't make no sense. Can I grow up?” Whether or not Ray & his team will follow through with a lawsuit is another story, but it sounds like they want to. We’ll continue to keep you posted if any more on this story develops however.

Following the death of 37-year old Alton Sterling, who was senselessly gunned down by ANOTHER police officer in Baton Rouge, Louisiana this week, the hip-hop community has once again expressed their incredible outrage & disbelief on the matter.

Kanye took to twitter to post an IG link of the video footage that had the hashtags #RIPAltonSterling, #StandForSomethingOrFallForAnything.

Khloe Kardashian & Trey Songz Reportedly "Seen Making Out"

Khloe Kardashian and Trey Songz reportedly got hot and heavy at Drai's night club. Khloe Kardashian is a single, independent lady, and with that power comes the pleasure of doing whatever the fuck she wants. Since her split from Lamar Odom (from whom she filed for a divorce for the second time this past May), she's been spotted with many a man, be it athlete or hip-hop artist (there doesn't seem to be much of a chance for anyone outside of those two careers). At the end of May, rumors began to fly concerning her relationship with Odell Beckham Jr. The latest man to get caught up in the constantly-churning Kardashian rumor mill is r'n'b singer Trey Songz. E! News reports that during Trey's Fourth of July performance at Drai's night club in Las Vegas, Khloe showed support by chilling in the VIP area. Beyond that, the two were reportedly "seen making out." Yup. Khloe was also spotted on Trey Songz's Snapchats, so you know it's real. We'll keep you posted as this story develops.

Iamsu! Says Frank Ocean's New Album Does Not Disappoint

Kevin Durant Announces Move To Warriors

Kevin Durant announces he's signed with the Golden State Warriors. A few days ago ushered in the NBA free agency, as we reported on, with plenty of notable basketball players receiving crazy, million-dollar deals to stick with their city and/or switch. While we already know where some players are headed, one of the unknowns (and most anticipated) was Kevin Durant. After taking meetings with Oklahoma City Thunder, Los Angeles Clippers, Boston Celtics, Golden State Warriors and Miami Heat, word has finally arrived as to where Durant will land this season. Durant has decided to go with the Golden State Warriors, leaving behind Oklahoma City. He wrote about the decision in an open letter on the Player's Tribune, earlier today. He wrote, I’m from Washington, D.C. originally, but Oklahoma City truly raised me. It taught me so much about family as well as what it means to be a man. There are no words to express what the organization and the community mean to me, and what they will represent in my life and in my heart forever. The memories and friendships are something that go far beyond the game. Those invaluable relationships are what made this deliberation so challenging. It really pains me to know that I will disappoint so many people with this choice, but I believe I am doing what I feel is the right thing at this point in my life and my playing career. I will miss Oklahoma City, and the role I have had in building this remarkable team. I will forever cherish the relationships within the organization — the friends and teammates that I went to war with on the court for nine years, and all the fans and people of the community. They have always had my back unconditionally, and I cannot be more grateful for what they have meant to my family and to me.
