Bow Wow has signed on to star in the third ‘Fast and Furious’ movie. Taking over from Vin Diesel and Paul Walker, ‘Fast and the Furious 3: Tokyo’ stars the 18-year-old rapper as Shaun Boswell, an outsider who is sent to live with his military uncle in a poor part of the city, only to be lured into the underworld of street racing. ~~
Jay-Z is planning a comeback, not even two years after “retiring” from the rap game. It’s rumoured that Hov could be back with a new album next summer, because he misses the studio. A source close to the rapper told a New York newspaper, “He's looking to get an album out by the beginning of summer. It's on his radar. He's been talking with [Island Def Jam chairman] Antonio ‘LA’ Reid about it. ~~
*Cam’ron is the latest to hit
R. Kelly with a lawsuit, adding to the R&B star’s legal woes. Cam’ron alleges that R. Kelly infringed his copyright for the ‘Snake Remix’, which Cam claims he co-wrote. The lawsuit comes soon after the Chicago crooner’s wife Andrea filed for an order of protection against Kells, which was granted last week. ~~
~~ It wasn’t so long ago that
Chingy was wrongfully accusing
Ludacris and
DTP of owing him money, so it’s some surprise that, just months later, the pop-rapper appears to be in a similar predicament with his Git It Boyz crew, with roles slightly reversed. While on tour, it is believed Chingy was banking over $40,000 a show but only paying the G.I.B. a mere $400. The G.I.B, out of loyalty, stuck by Chingy in hope they would end up getting their fair share of the profits; instead they reportedly ended up not being able to pay child support each month.
