Apparently Kanye may want to watch his back. Word is that Reggie Bush saw some text to Kim’s phone from Ye which help to prompt the break up.
illseed/allhiphop.com reports: UH OH! IS KANYE IN THE MIDDLE OF KIM K. AND REGGIE?
Reggie and Kim both claim that their breakup didn’t involve any cheating, but some stuff is coming out now. They are claiming that Reggie saw text messages from Kanye West on Kim’s phone went spazz-o-la style on her. And, what did the text say? Not sure. I hope Kanye doesn’t get into into it with dude. Well, the girl that Kim K. stopped from coming to the front is now coming to the front, from what I heard. The Latina stripper is now looking to sell her story to the highest bidder. I don’t think that Kim is going to go through all of the issues of buying all of them out of running it.Here is what Fox 11 said about it:
“Reggie saw text messages on Kim’s phone from Kanye West and flipped out on her. The texts referenced a night they hung out, how much fun he had, how hot Kim was, and more racy things that got Reggie’s imagination running,” says the source.
Drake Apologizes For Bad Video
“That career move was very important to me,” he said in an interview. “We’ve done such a great job of building it all up. It’s kind of like people were getting this impression of me that I’m never gonna make a mistake…If you listen to the song, I’m not saying the most graceful thing in the world. It’s not the most heartfelt song…I guess one thing I didn’t consider is what the song personally means to a lot of women…To those women, I apologize. I do apologize. My intention wasn’t to put anyone down. It was to make them laugh. I wanted people to see something visually different.” (MTV)

Sorority Pres. AKA Sorority Thief?
CHICAGO (July 29) — Members of the country’s oldest black sorority are suing to remove their president, alleging that she spent hundreds of thousands of dollars of the group’s money on herself — some of it to pay for a wax statue in her own likeness.
In the suit filed in Washington, D.C., the Alpha Kappa Alpha members also alleged that international President Barbara McKinzie bought designer clothing, jewelry and lingerie with the sorority credit card. She then redeemed points the purchases earned on the card to buy a big-screen television and gym equipment, the lawsuit said.
Drake Acting Again
The boy Drake is on fire. Singer, rapper, and actor will be starring in a new sitcom. The checks this boy must be cashing.
Via Sohh – Also Wednesday, Toronto-based the Nightingale Company said Canadian actor and rap artist Aubrey “Drake” Graham (“Degrassi: The Next Generation”) is to develop a new comedy series for the indie producer. Graham, also known as the recording artist “Drake,” and fellow actor Mazin Eisadig (“The Line”) are to co-star in “Us and Them,” a sitcom about best buddies — and polar opposites ? trying to make their way in the entertainment industry. (The Hollywood Reporter)
Update: “‘Us and Them’ is something he has been working on for some time with some of his actor friends,” his rep said in an interview. “They will be continuing to develop the show, but Drake won’t be starring in it.”
Is Hov About To Play The Game
“I think he’s been posturing for this thing for a while,” Jay explained. “I guess he just took the fact that I said I’m not talking about him which is not a diss at all. I figured that was his opportunity, he’s going on tour and he’s promoting, or buzz or marketing or however people feel they need attention these days. So it’s no real problems behind it, it’s no real challenge behind it. With the Nas thing, that was a real thing, it wasn’t done because of any marketing or anything like that. I typically let those types of things slide but you know, I could wake up tomorrow and just really go right in.” (Big Boy’s Neighborhood)
Kid Cudi Talks New HBO Series
Via Sohh.Com – “It was important to me early on to branch away from music and actually do something outside my comfort zone. When we were developing my character with the writers, I was telling them, ‘Man, I don’t want to be anything that has to do with music,’ just because that’s not really acting.” (The Boom Box)
“I have a lead role,” Cudi said in an interview. “My character’s name is Domingo Dean. I actually named my character after both of my brothers – Dean, who lives in Phoenix, being one of them, and Domingo. My character’s kind of the comic relief. He’s really witty – a hopeless romantic but a player at the same time.” (AZ Central)

Chris Brown has been thrown back into the spotlight without trying. Apparently this wedding video which has received millions of hit collectively on youtube has put Chris Brown in the top ten on itunes. Opportunity and chance has been given to Chris again. What will he do with it?
Drake Talks Wayne
“Someone would really have to come to the studio to see me and Wayne together and how we work,” Drake said in an interview. “It’s the same sort of thing. I fear Wayne’s creativity. It’s endless. It’s a scary beast. He never takes one day off. When we get into the studio it is very competitive, but in a good way. You can’t just use a line you wrote Tuesday. Every line has to be thought out…I’m about two songs in. I really haven’t even started. The tour is really throwing me off, so I probably won’t start really working on it until September. It will probably come out Valentine’s Day next year.” (The Boom Box)

Kim Kardashian And Reggie Bush Finished?
This was rumored a couple of days ago that Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush have broken up. The word on the street is that he was cheating on her with Vanessa Minello (Nick Lachey’s Ex). Kim says it was due to their schedule conflicts that they are not together. Now it seems its because he didn’t want to put a ring on it. Well he didn’t one night her, but wasn’t willing to wife her I guess. Oh well fellas, Kim is back on the market.
Just two days before she announced her split from longtime boyfriend New Orleans Saints running back Reggie Bush, Kim Kardashian told PEOPLE about her house hunting – and her desire to live alone.
Kardashian, surrounded by her mom, Kris Jenner, and her sisters, Kourtney and Khloe, at the Hilton Hotel in Atlantic City, N.J., talked about how she and Bush had just looked at homes together the day before. “He hated the one that I loved,” she said. “There is one that he loved and I know my mom is going to love. So I don’t know. I just feel like I have lived in a condo and it’s just time.”
Perhaps most telling, she followed with a declaration: “I’ve always wanted to buy a big house myself and … It is time for me to move. I wish my sisters could move in with me.”
Asked if she planned to move in with Bush, she told PEOPLE, “I don’t think I would ever live with someone unless I’m engaged. I’m really firm on that. I have done it before. I would tell all my friends, the best thing is to keep your independence. It feels really good to be able to buy a place by myself.”

Diddy, Wayne, Mariah On Ice
Billboard Reports – Some of the most highly-anticipated albums of the summer have been delayed, including Mariah Carey’s “Memoirs of An imperfect Angel,” Sean “Diddy” Combs’ “Last Train To Paris” and Lil Wayne’s proprter rock and roll album “Rebirth.”
Carey’s “Memoirs,” first slated for an August 25th release via Island Def Jam will now be available on September 15th according to the Universal Music Group business-to-business website. Carey’s new single, “Obsessed,” is at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week.
Combs said via a video interview with MTV News release last week that his project’s been delayed partially because it’s “Jay-Z time and Drake time — enjoy those guys. But the ‘Train’ is coming, baby,” he warns. “Get your ticket, you don’t want to be left out.”
Lil Wayne’s label publicist confirmed to Billboard.com that his release date has also been moved, although a new date hasn’t been scheduled yet. “Rebirth” was last slated for a June 23rd street date.
In addition, Amerie’s long-awaited return, “In Love & War,” which was originally slated for an August 11th release, will now be available on September 8th. Lead single, “Why R U,” reaches No. 62 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart this week.

Lil Wayne CD On Hold?
“Cash Money just changes their dates whenever they want to,” says a Universal Motown rep. “It’s definitely not August. I have no idea why it was moved, and I’m not anticipating a September release. Right now I’m looking at closer to October.” A representative for Cash Money tells the Music Mix even that estimated date is likely too early: “It’s not going to be ’til the end of the year. We’re talking about holiday [season].” You read that right: Rebirth might not be on shelves until December 2009. (Entertainment Weekly)
Kanye, Jay-Z, And Rihanna To Form Supergroup?
This comes from mediatakeout.com so take it as gossip. They are saying that Jay, Ye, and Ri are forming a super music group that will release music in 2010. I won’t hold my breath on this one.
There’s a new day coming in the world of hip hop – and it’s coming in the form of a Super Group. MediaTakeOut.com just caught wind of an EXPLOSIVE piece of news. According to an EXTREMELY well placed source Jay Z, Rihanna, and Kanye West are coming together to form a new Super-group.
We’re told that the group, which has yet to be named, will operate as a syndicate. With all three appearing extensively on each other album. And a collaborative album – where all three artists are featured – to be released by mid 2010.
And it’s not just music that the trio’s going to be making together. According to our insider, the three mega-artists will also be going on tour together and are exploring a joint clothing line.
Sounds like just the type of thing that hip hop needs …
Anita Baker Working With Snoop Dogg
I’ve heard of some odd couple’s but Snoop working with Anita Baker has to be up there with Felix and Oscar.
Billboard Reports – Anita Baker says there are “a couple of songs that I had in mind for a couple of artists that I think I’m going to use for myself.” She adds that the new music is “not a departure. It will be an Anita Baker record, but it will have a lot of surprising elements in it. We’ll take a lot of our contemporaries and bring them into my project where they may fit.”
One of those could be rapper Snoop Dogg, who Baker is working with on an adaptation of Curtis Mayfield’s “Give Me Your Love (Love Song)” from the “Superfly” soundtrack. “We do it in a very contemporary way, a very grown-up way,” Baker says. “It’s lovely — who knew that Snoop is madly in love with his wife, you know? We’ve got a chance to see that in the way his music has grown, so when he comes in to do dialogue over that love theme, it becomes very grown-up and contemporary at the same time.”
As for when we might hear, or see, something new, however, Baker is circumspect. “The record company (Blue Note) wants next spring, and I would love for that to happen,” she says. “That would be lovely, but we all are mindful of the fact that we want it to be right. So when they say spring, they really are planning for the fall. It’s like…I’m a mom. If we want to be at brunch at 1, I have to tell my kids 12 o’clock — you know what I mean?”

Vernon Forrest Dead At 38
Vernon Forrest was murdered last night in a car jacking in Southwest Atlanta at a local gas station. Many know Forrest beating world champ Shane Mosely twice. I can’t believe another high profile murder.
ATLANTA — Former boxing champion Vernon Forrest was shot and killed during an apparent robbery in Atlanta, police said Sunday.
Atlanta Police Sgt. Lisa Keyes said in an e-mail Sunday that Forrest may have been robbed and was shot “multiple times in the back” Saturday night in Atlanta.
Keyes said there are no suspects.
“Vernon was one of the few decent people in boxing,” promoter Gary Shaw said Sunday.
“I mean really decent. He cared about mentally challenged adults. He cared about kids. I just can’t believe it.”
Mark Guilbeau, an investigator with the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s office, said an autopsy is planned for Sunday.
Forrest, a native of Augusta, Ga., who lived in Atlanta, was a member of the 1992 Olympic team. He was also a former WBC super welterweight champion.
Forrest, 38, took two wins over Sugar Shane Mosley in 2002. On Sept. 13, 2008, Forrest reclaimed his WBC 154-pound title by beating Sergio Mora.
Winehouse Is Acquitted
Amy Winehouse was on trial for punching a fan in the eye. She won based on reasonable doubt. They weren’t sure if the fan provoked it.
A judge acquitted Amy Winehouse on Friday of assaulting a fan who asked to take her picture.
District Judge Timothy Workman found the 25-year-old singer not guilty of punching dancer Sherene Flash in the eye after the fan asked to take her picture following a charity ball in September.
Prosecutors claimed it was a deliberate assault. But Winehouse said she had felt intimidated by the drunken Flash – and claimed she was too short to have hit the dancer in the face.
The judge said that after hearing the evidence, he could not be sure the blow had been deliberate.
“The charge is dismissed and the defendant discharged,” he said.
Winehouse, dressed in a knee-length black skirt, gray jacket and white shirt, shrugged as the verdict was announced. She remained in the dock until her lawyer spoke to her, apparently clarifying the verdict.
“I’m relieved. I’m going home,” she said as she left court through a jostling pack of photographers and television cameras.
