From DDO: Ace Hood’s (@Acehood) hit single “Bugatti” (featuring Rick Ross & Future) has struck gold in just 3 months time. The track was produced by Mike WiLL Made It and will appear on his upcoming album “Trials & Tribulations” which will be released on July 16th.
VIBE Reports: Southern rap legend Scarface still dreams big at age 42. One of the fiercest lyricists to come out of South, the Houston rapper is looking to branch out into rock n roll. If you’ve seen the Geto Boy live lately he’s been practicing his guitar onstage during sets, strumming old school Metallica and Pink Floyd jams. It’s all for good reason. “Mr. Scarface” dreams of recording a rock and roll album with Kiss’ Gene Simmons and Smashing Pumpkins’ Billy Corgan. They’d be called the Sick Ass Psycho Bastards and Linda Perry would produce. “When I call ‘em, it’s on,” ‘Face promises. (Where’s the merch table? We want a t-shirt.)

HHWired Reports: Well this doesn’t sound like too much fun at all. Soulja Boy and Chief Keef, who have previously collaborated a few times on tracks like “Foreign Cars” and “Say She Luv Me” are now tangled in some social networking war. It’s getting pretty ugly, and death threats are being thrown around. Back in January, Chief Keef’s Twitter was “hacked” and during that “hacking” some insults flew about Soulja Boy. “He’s a d-ck stealin’ every1 flow,” Fake Keef tweeted. That battle was diffused quickly, but earlier this month one of Keef’s homies GBE’s Ballout got pretty braggy over Twitter about how he stole Soulja Boy’s chain. “N L.A. Pushin On N—as Jus Too This N—a @souljaboy Chain Des N—as Fak As S–t I B Takin S–t,” he tweeted. Now Soulja Boy has run through Facebook several weeks later making death threats to Keef and his boy. He even posted both of Keef’s phone numbers urging people to “Call Sosa” and tell him that Soulja Boy is on the way. He even claims to have an AK-47 in his hand. With Keef’s previous criminal record, is this the wisest thing for Soulja Boy to be doing? Just because you know how to “Superman dat h0e” doesn’t make you Superman, son. UPDATE: Of course, Soulja Boy says his Facebook was hacked. Read more at http://keepittrill.com/online/2013/04/soulja-boy-threatens-chief-keef-ak47/#IJkyE4JUvqQwXDiI.99

Today, the RIAA confirmed March certifications. Among them was Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania emcee Mac Miller's breakout hit "Donald Trump." The Rostrum Records single appeared on Miller's March, 2011 mixtape Best Day Ever. Subsequently released digitally, the song—produced by Newark, Delaware's SAP—exceeded 1,000,000 in sales. The song was not included on Mac's 2011 debut, Blue Slide Park. "Donald Trump" marks Mac's first platinum award. The song was certified gold in the closing days of 2011. Its namesake, investor and politician Donald Trump threatened, via Twitter, to sue the emcee/producer earlier this year, asking for many in lieu of the gold plaque. He also referred to the rapper as "Little Mac Miller" repeatedly. Miller responded via Twitter that he did not "want ti put any more negative energy into the world," and asked the Trump Towers founder to "be friends." Previously, in mid-2011, a supportive Trump branded Mac, "the next Eminem."

Screwed Up Click alum Lil' Flip is a wanted man in Louisiana after he no-showed in court yesterday. Onetime Houston, Texas Hip Hop star Lil' Flip is currently a wanted man. The Screwed-Up Click and Clover Gang member, a former Columbia Records platinum act, is currently the target of an arrest warrant, according to TMZ. Flip reportedly missed a court date yesterday (April 18) in De Soto Parish, Louisiana, for his nearby December 25 arrest. On Christmas of last year, Flip's vehicle was stopped and subsequently searched. Police allege they found a Bushmaster AR-15 assault rifle and marijuana. It was said to be Flip's third drug offense at the time. By December 30, Lil' Flip, released on bond, took to Twitter to stress his innocence and call out his arresting officer by name. He stressed that he had a permit for the firearm, and that the drugs in question were really just Black & Mild cigars. TMZ reports that a source close to Flip believes the rapper was unaware of the court hearing. Flip last released Ahead Of My Time in 2010.

Scott Biumi of the DeKalb County Police Department has been arrested after surveillance footage captured him pulling his gun on a teen at a fast food drive-through, the Forsyth News reports. The Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office charged the 48-year-old cop with aggravated assault in connection with the April 9 incident at McDonald’s on Old Atlanta Road. He is a detective sergeant, according to authorities. The sheriff’s report states that Biumi was upset at the amount of time it was taking a truck in front of him to place an order around 10:30 p.m. He allegedly drove his black Chevrolet Impala in front of the truck, confronted the driver and then pulled out his gun. After menacing the man inside of the vehicle, he returned to his car. SEE ALSO: Mother, Infant Daughter ‘Bleed To Death On Road As Motorists Drive Past The Forsyth News has more details on this story: Forsyth County Sheriff Duane K. Piper called the incident “shocking.” “It appears that he had a severe break in judgment,” Piper said. “It appears that the entire situation evolved from him being angry at the time it was taking for him to get his food.” Factors early in the investigation led the agency to believe the suspect was a law enforcement officer, he said. The man’s actions indicated that he had law enforcement training, Piper said. He also drove his police-issued Impala, which matched the tag number reported by the teens in the vehicle he confronted. The teens attend Lambert High. A surveillance tape of the incident aided in the investigation, as did witness reports. “Once we determined it was not going to be one of our officers, we expanded the scope of our investigation and eventually determined it was Mr. Biumi from the DeKalb County Police Department,” Piper said. Biumi was booked into the Forsyth County Detention Center on Wednesday afternoon. His bond has been set at $22,000, with a court date scheduled for May 23. Biumi’s employment status with the DeKalb County Police Department is unclear. But what is clear are his disturbing actions captured on video. “You wouldn’t expect any adult of any type to be acting like this,” Piper said, “but especially, with a law enforcement officer, I think they have even a higher standard of self-control, and to me, that’s the most shocking part.”

From Bossip: At this point we’re not totally sure if Draya owns a pair of full-length pants or any whole shirts. That said, we won’t complain, we’ll just give thanks that she isn’t shy on Instagram . Recently, reality TV’s favorite “turn up” girl put her bra-and-panty-rockin’ talents on display for the camera to bolster the sales of a fancy new lingerie line. Although her Fine A$$ Girls weren’t with her, she was still in one big room full of bad bishes. Hit the flipper to see more pics that might make your nature rise.

When he reached Def Jam, Freeman held the seat as Mixshow Manager, working heavily with artists like Jay-Z, Rick Ross, 2 Chainz, Fabolous, Jadakiss, and recent phenomenon Trinidad Jame$. Further, he played a large role in Rick Ross’ career, leading him up to this moment. “I am extremely excited to embark on this new path in my career,” Young Sav states. “I appreciate Ross for noticing my grind, work ethic and giving me a major opportunity to not only be a part of this label, but also help execute his vision.” He continues, “It’s going to be a privilege to work with the brand and assist in taking it to the next tier.

DE Reports: The Mayor of Houston has called on her good friend, recent philanthropist, and member of Texas Hip Hop royalty, Bun B, and a host of others to join her in the crusade against texting and driving. The “Can It Wait Houston?” Campaign is an extension of the program set in place by AT&T to encourage drivers to take safety more serious, put the phone down and keep your eyes on the road. As much as many of us would be ashamed to admit, we have all at one point and time (if not every day) held a text conversation while behind the wheel. We already have enough distractions with the radio, construction, erratic drivers, and now texting has become yet another factor we try to juggle as drivers.
Nothing is more disheartening than the commercials where someone has been fatally injured or you see the text message that ended the life of a driver. According to stats from AT&T, 43% of drivers have admitted to texting and driving, and almost half of that at 23% are more likely to have an accident because of it. In the State of Texas in 2011, 13% of over 3000 fatalities in car accidents can be credited to drivers’ texting behind the wheel.
The “Can It Wait Houston,” campaign has called on a task force including law enforcement, government officials, corporate sponsors, medical, educations, and faith based organizations to combine forces and make the effort to tell drivers no one’s life is worth a text message: “Not only can we commit to putting the phone down while we drive, we can encourage everybody around us to do the same.” -Houston Mayor, Annise Parker Read more at http://keepittrill.com/online/2013/04/bun-houston-mayor-anise-parker-unite-texting-driving/#iUQhp9o0fK7WBMSt.99

The new spot is part of the beverage company's "Live For Now campaign and finds Beyoncé rehearsing in a dance studio. After taking a breather, an a sip of Pepsi, she sees past versions of herself. There is a “Bootylicious” version and a “Sasha Fierce” version, for example and more. Eventually all the assembled Beys, that reside in mirrors, kick off an all-new dance routine.

Brooklyn, New York's Talib Kweli recently weighed in on an issue concerning Lil Wayne. In an interview, Kweli opened up about why he feels Weezy should apologize to Emmett Till's family for a line on one of his records. “My opinion is that I think that Lil Wayne should apologize to the Till Family," Kweli shared in a talk with AllHipHop. "But, its not for me to say; its for him to do. That’s what I would do. That’s what I think is the smart thing to do, especially since you apologized to LeBron [James] for the Miami Heat thing. But, from my perspective, wherever he’s at with it in the world and his mind space is that the surroundings around him are not necessarily making him aware that he needs to apologize to the Till family. But the surroundings around him are making him aware that, 'You know what? You live in Miami. You should apologize to the Heat.' Do I think that’s a little backwards? Yeah. But, I think that it's a little hypocritical of us to put that squarely on Lil Wayne’s shoulders.” Kweli continued explaining how "we as a community gotta take the blame." “We've been listening to dudes talk about they 'gon' beat the pussy up' on records with all different types of metaphors before the Till family got affected. If we are going to encourage that and like it, then we as a community gotta take the blame. I think it's very convenient for a lot of people to pick a certain line from a song that’s still creative. We’re not talking about censorship. We don’t wanna censor nobody. But I do think it's a bit hypocritical. There is a line in the sand you have to draw but this is the part I find hypocritical. When you criticize Lil Wayne for it and it doesn’t stop as criticism for the line. It continues to ‘He’s a monster and he’s destroying Hip Hop. I wish he would die. I wish he would stop making records.’ When it goes to that, that's not something I can condone. And that also will also make an artist you saying that about say, ‘Well, fuck what you gotta say. My fans support me.’ To me, the better way is through outreach and unity in Hip Hop – finding the similarities rather than the differences. That’s why I always work for these artists. For me, its art first. When you judge whether or not I should be working on an artist, the only thing you should be judging it on is on the song.” The line in question was featured on the remix to Future's "Karate Chop." On the track, Wayne said he would "beat that pussy up like Emmett Till." Epic Records officially responded to the song and pulled the lyrics from what they called an "unauthorized" leak. Future spoke about the song, saying Wayne had "no bad intentions" with the line. In 1955, at 14 years of age, Till was beaten and brutally murdered in Money, Mississippi. He was kidnapped and killed by two White men in what was a racially charged crime but the men were acquitted by an all-White, all-male jury. This event further emphasized the fight for civil rights in the nation and the racial divide that separated the country.

Nas has been dropping some heavy hints that another album is in the pipeline. The Queens, New York, rapper enjoyed more than a little success in July last year, with the appearance of his 11th studio album. “Life Is Good“ met with a formidable amount of critical acclaim. Nas’ video single from the album, “Daughters“, also triumphed, with the track debuting at #1, selling a total of almost 150,000 copies. Now, Nas has jumped on Twitter to share some more good news with fans. The legendary MC revealed that he would be giving some details on his next release this May. Apparently, an album title may be revealed. “Eh-um…. Dropping next album title next month,” Nas wrote. The comment has caused speculation about the time scale fans can expect with this next venture. Nas has been known to leave precious little time between his album drops. 1999 saw him “I Am…“ in April, followed shortly by “Nastradamas“ in November. Rumour has it that Nas may well be working on a “Distant Relatives“ collaborative follow up with Damien Marley.
