Emerging from the shadows to reclaim her spot in the music game, Monica is back in the studio working on her new album.

Answers:

50 Cent At It Again

Raging beef between rappers Rick Ross and 50 Cent is getting out of control. Where the beef started......beats me, but it definitely needs to stop before someone gets hurt.

Apparently Rick said some things about 50 during an interview, and 50 responded with some very threatening comments. Check out 50's response below.

Uploaded by yardie4lifever2

If that didn't leave a sour taste in Rick's mouth.....50's latest V-blog definitely will. Getting exclusive and extremely personal, 50 interviewed Rick's baby mama Tia, and you'll be surprised to find out that Rick isn't quite the BOSS he claims to be.



Aside from crushing Rick's reputation as a rapper, lover and a father, 50 took it to the next level by taking Tia on a shopping spree, to show Rick how a real man/Boss treats a lady......I hope this doesn't turn into a Tupac and Faith, or Jay-Z and Carmen (Nas baby mama) situation.....even though Rick & Tia aren't together anymore, you know how men are about their baby mama's......but I guess we'll have to wait and see what's next on "This is 50".....stay tuned.

P. Diddy Addresses Lil Kim's Frustrations

Did you hear about Lil Kim's tantrum over her character portrayal in the movie "Notorious?"

If you didn't, please click here to be updated.

In response to Kim's accusations, P. Diddy had somethings to say, and from what it sounds like... Puff was dead wrong.

I haven't seen the movie and can't comment on how Kim was portrayed, but what I can say is that....based on the premiere pictures and the production of the film, Lil Kim was not included.

I think Puff did a disservice not only to Lil Kim, but Biggie, because if he really wanted to show the life of Biggie, he would include all parties involved, especially Lil Kim.

Not only that, but why would you paint such an image of Lil Kim and not seek her approval before producing the film? Then.... to add insult to injury, you blog about it and admit you were wrong.......$32million dollars later.....and suggest Kim produce her own version of Biggies life. What an A-hole!!!

Needless to say Puff still recognized Lil Kim as the Queen and admitted that she was more to Biggie than a jump-off.....Too bad that apology came a little bit too late.....

New Ciara - "Never Ever"

Ms. Ciara is definitely heating up the game with her newest song "Never Ever" featuring Young Jeezy....."Never Ever" is the second release off her new album "Fantasy Ride." The track is produced by Polow Da Don and was co-written by Ciara and Elvis “BlacElvis” Williams......

The video is HOT, I love everything about it....Ciara is absolutely fabulous.....if her abs don't make you wanna drop down and do 50 crunches...then you must be a size 2!!!!

Check out the video and let me know what you think.....oh, and if your wondering why this song sounds so familiar, remember the hit, "If You Don't Know Me by Now" by Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff? Well...they are the original creators....

Needless to say Ciara put a nice spin on it and definitely made it a Cici track......get 'um Cici!!!!
