If you live within the range of New York’s Hot 97 or you follow Funkmaster Flex then you know he cannot allow anything to go on in hip hop without stating his opinion. He chimed in briefly on the Jay-Z vs. Beanie Sigel situation when it first popped off but of course he had to go back in on his show and via twitter.
Flex says that Jay-Z was wrong for not letting Sigel leave Roc-A-Fella but then he went in further. ‘Artists like to gravitate like bees towards honey to the hot label because it cuts down their legwork,” says Flex “I think Beans is wrong for making a record saying anything about Jay-Z.”
Flex also gave his take on Jaz-O taking shots at Jay saying “move with it Jaz-O, everybody wasn’t meant to be in this Hov position.”
The silver lining to this whole situation is at least Flex is reading blogs and paying attention to the internet. That is a very positive step in the right direction.
Like with Angie Martinez in New York or Big Boy in L.A., you’re official in London if you can connect with Tim Westwood. Wale, the hottest thing out of D.C. in a minute, hopped across the water recently and spent a few minutes with ol’ Timmy. Oh, best believe the young rhyme slayer got on the mic too. If you’re pressed for time, skip to about the 2:00 mark in the video. Son zones out around there. Cheers!
According to gossip mill Media Takeout, New York radio’s female Howard Stern may soon be calling it quits.
MTO says that radio talk show host Wendy Williams, may be saying good-bye to her home at WBLS to pursue a career in television full-time.
The always-controversial Williams, who has been doing radio for years now with The Wendy Williams Experience, has a top-rated, BET-backed television show, The Wendy Williams Show, as well. Rumors are speculating that WBLS may be opposed to the time and efforts she is putting into the TV show and may be trying to hinder her from continuing with it.
