-----Suge Knight is under investigation for the murder of the Notorious B.I.G.? Apparently, police found a purple Chevy Impala in his name, at one of his properties. This vehicle fits the description of the one used to assassinate Biggie. Is this guy a thug or what????
-----Speaking of Dr. DRE, word is that he isn't going to let Death Row take any of his fame with "The Chronic 2000". Dre announced that he is going to change the title of his upcoming album. Smart move since the death row chronic is terrible.
----- Rap superstar and acclaimed lyricist (haha) Mase, has decided to retire from the rap game to spread the word of God, once again the lord works in mysterious ways.
------A new Quest? Phife announced that he is working on a solo project called "The Life and Times of Muddy Ranks", with the first single called "Bend Over" I have heard one cut off of the album not sure if it is the same one but from what I heard it doesn't seem to promising, while Q-Tip has just signed a solo deal with Arista Records.
-----Is Interscope signing Planet Asia and Dilated Peoples? Word is both were seen at the label this past week, this is a huge rumor however I hope it happens it would be nice to see both of them finally get the respect they deserve.
-----Meanwhile, on June 22, fans can look out for Shyhiem to drop his third LP, "Man Child", which will include a tribute song to Big L (RIP)
-----What about Bob D? Rumor has it that RZA will be releasing three movies, "Bobby Digital", "Domestic Violence" and "Digital Bullet". No word if these will all be included on the same tape, nor has a release date been set for any of these movies look for something crazy that only RZA could do.
-----Wu-Tang and Activision have joined forces to release an arena- based fighting game due for release this fall on Sony Playstation. Wu-Tang: Shoalin Style allows you to be one of the nine Wu-Tang members as you stroll through 10 realistic urban and ancient arenas taking place in New York and China. The story line challenges players to master their art of fighting against various enemies. The player learns to attack, block and counter attack while trying to attain the 36 Chambers to unlock secret doors and learn special moves. The game offers two-to-four player mode and gives the players the option to fight each other or to complete the game as a team. The game will also feature Wu-Tang's music including three previously unreleased tracks. I can't wait to see O.D.B. in this.
------On July 13th, Violator Records will be releasing "Violator: The Album," a compilation of new material from LL Cool J, Busta Rhymes and Q-Tip. The album will feature Q-Tip's first solo record since the breakup of A Tribe Called Quest.
