Despite previously suggesting Drake’s involvement, Wiz Khalifa enlists Young Jeezy and Lil Wayne for his “Work Hard Play Hard” remix.  The original, featuring production by Stargate and Benny Blanco, will be included on O.N.I.F.C., Khalifa’s second studio album.  To his surprise, fans accused the September release’s artwork of excessively drawing influence from Jimi Hendrix. The Taylor Gang star promptly responded to the controversy, stating, “It doesn’t mean I’m trying to be Jimi. Yeah, I love Jimi, but that’s not really exactly who I’m trying to be.”  Download the remix below. “Work Hard Play Hard (Remix)” Download http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/wiz-khalifa-work-hard-play-hard-song.968895.html

As Fall approaches, suspense for G.O.O.D. Music’s collaborative release, Cruel Summer, continues to escalate. Signees to rapper-producer Kanye West’s label, such as Big Sean, Pusha T, KiD CuDi, Mos Def, Hit-Boy and Teyana Taylor, will likely be the highlights of the album. Nonetheless, Def Jam’s 2 Chainz received a verse on the massive single, “Mercy”, and a Tweet by Harlem emcee Azealia Banks suggested her involvement as well.  This last Friday, West spontaneously previewed tracks off the album at Dream Downtown’s PH-D, an exclusive club located in downtown Manhattan.  The set allegedly included “My Perfect Bitch”, the tentatively-titled ode to Kim Kardashian, West’s socialite girlfriend.  In an interview with MTV Hive, Pusha T claimed the album, the artwork of which is pictured above, is “in its final final final stages”.  The Clipse member and G.O.O.D. label mate Hit-Boy have both announced plans to travel to Hawaii, where they’ll join Kanye in adding the finishing touches.  Provided below are a number of links regarding Cruel Summer. “Mercy” Music Video on Vevo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Dqgr0wNyPo “New God Flow” Review by Rolling Stone Magazine http://www.rollingstone.com/music/songreviews/new-god-flow-20120709 Pusha T Cruel Summer Interview by MTV http://www.mtvhive.com/2012/08/24/pusha-t-interview-cruel-summer/ Coverage of West’s Nightclub Performance by The New York Post http://www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/west_new_jams_bqXaEiODQY3DPA7HxUQupN#ixzz22mP5sQl7 Coverage of Azealia Banks’ Cruel Summer Tweet by All Hip Hop http://allhiphop.com/2012/08/22/hip-hop-rumors-is-azealia-banks-working-with-kanye-west-on-cruel-summer/

“I don’t like New York”
- Lil Wayne” —

Two days after Young Money boss declared his dislike for the Empire State to MTV, the media still dwells on the bold comment.  While XXL Magazine drafted a timeline of Tunechi’s relationship with the “Big Apple”, MTV has recorded Birdman’s support for the wild statement.  State politician Malcolm Smith and his supporters have still not received the public apology requested from the New Orleans spitter.  I’ve attached the links essential for a comprehensive analysis of the situation.

Building upon the hype of the highly controversial “Bitch Bad” video premiere, Lupe Fiasco has finally released the album artwork of Food & Liquor 2: The Great American Rap Album Pt. 1.  The simple black image explores the boundaries of creativity, while leaving fans even more anxious for the September 25th release.  Pre-orders of the new CD, which also features single “Around My Way (Freedom Ain’t Free)”, are available through the Warner Music Group website.  I’ve attached that link below, as well as MTV’s recent interview with the Chicago rapper.
