DJ Magazine described his ‘Trust’ EP ‘a classic’. Blues ‘n’ Soul Magazine acclaimed the next release from Blaktrix ‘What Shall BE’ EP as ‘proof not all best British hiphop comes out of London.’

Blaktrix spent a short stint on the infamous SFDB Label and featured on the Secondson and his Orchestra LP along with artists such as Taskforce, Lewis Parker and Jehst. He has supported Skinnyman and Goldie Lookin Chain in venues across the country such as BristolAcademy and has performed live on BBC radio. ‘Blix James Bitch’ is played considerably on C4’s Extreme Sports. Blaktrix was also featured on ‘Unsigned’ on HTV Wales. When times were hard Rola from the Numskullz, Monky and Stagga (now renowned dubstep producers) from Optimas Prime provided him with the space and studio to lay down some of his heaviest material.

For the Lil Wayne fans currently in despair at the New Orleans rappers current incarceration and the seemingly endless wait for the fourth release in the ‘Carter’ series, there has been a ray of light shone upon them from Young Money CEO and co-manager to Lil Wanyne Cortez Bryant.

According to Bryant he will be releasing an EP of all new Wayne Material which will be under the expected title of ‘ I’m not a human being’, which will drop on Wayne’ s birthday.

Reports from Vibe, show Bryant confirming this,

“I’m putting out a [Wayne] album called I’m Not A Human Being and I’ll probably drop it on his birthday, September 27″, Bryant states. But Bryant has also made it clear that it will be up to the fans to keep tabs on the situation as there will be no promotional push for the album and initially it won’t even be on hard copy until christmas, “We not about to roll out no three month set up,” Bryant explains. “I’m not even putting it out in stores. We just gonna put it out virally and maybe package it up for Christmas. Give ‘em a hard copy later for fan appreciation.”

As soon as any further information becomes available we will update.

A fan who jumped on stage during a G-Unit performance in Brazil, was beaten by G-Unit Security and G-Unit members according to reports.

It is reported that the fan jumped on stage during 50 Cent’s performance of ‘Ayo Technology’  and attempted to grab hold of 50 Cent, resulting in security rapidly moving in on the fan and giving him some pretty rough treatment, and Lloyd Banks is also seen punching the fan for his actions.

The performance then continued as scheduled and no further disturbances were reported throughout the evening.

The G-Unit millionaire that is 50 Cent celebrated his birthday and according to reports he was planning on taking it easy, and taking the chance to relax and spend out on those closest to him.

The rapper is preparing to tour Brazil and stated that he would be using his birthday as an opportunity to relax and do something nice for other people and his Grandparents in particular.

“It’s more fun for me to just not have to do anything and turn the phone off,” 50 explained to DJ Whoo Kid on G-Unit Radio. “When my birthday comes, instead of buying stuff for myself, I’ll buy stuff for them and wait until the occasion comes to give it to them.”

Over recent years 50 Cent has not only become very wealthy through his own music career but has become known as a very successful businessman, earning him millions. Most noticeable with the success of his G-Unit label, G-Unit radio, G-Unit clothing and his stake in Vitaminwater which is reported to have earned him around $100 Million when Coca Cola purchased the company in 2007.

When speaking on the luxuries and material things in life 50 Cent stated,

“I got what I want, when you achieve more than you anticipate and if you’re blessed with having a long enough career, you’ll get over a lot of different things. And I think we are all conditioned to want things we don’t need. After you acquire them and you get comfortable with them, you realize, you never really needed that stuff.”

Drake Cancels European Tour Dates.

Posted by Tom On July - 1 - 20101 COMMENT

Canadian rap star Drake has announced that he has cancelled his European tour dates due to a family emergency.

Allhiphop.com  reports that the cancellations arose due to a problem with his mother, who needed surgery and therefore made the cancellations unavoidable.

“Despite my best hopes, it is apparent that my mother will need surgery earlier than anticipated. In light of this news, I have made the difficult decision to cancel my European tour in order to support her during her recovery, just as she supported me through the years,” Drake said in a statement. “I cannot thank my European fans enough and look forward to performing abroad soon. I ask everyone to please respect my family’s privacy during this time.”

However Drake has not left his European fans high and dry as he has tentatively rescheduled his Paris,Amsterdam and London shows for November this year, and has stated that tickets bought will be honoured for the rescheduled events.

We will update as soon as any further information becomes available.
