BET Hip Hop Awards After Party Turns Into Brawl With Diddy And T.I
 The BET Hip Hop Awards 2011 brought the usual low caliber artist, Kanye West, most of Young Money, Jay-Z and a few others were noticeably absent. Kanye was busy premiering his womenswear line in Paris, not sure what everyone else excuse was. Despite it all, the show did have some surprises.
Young Jeezy brought out T.I, who's making his first onstage appearance since his release. The crowd reportedly went wild. LL Cool J received the IAMHipHop Award and DMX performed with his old partner Swizz Beatz.
But the drama came AFTER the awards - at the afterparty at Atlanta's club Compound. The beef started when Diddy decided that lifestyle specialist Kenny Burns and his crew couldn't drink Grey Goose. And they should opt for Ciroc - the brand that Diddy pulls in millions from per year. The incident escalated as Diddy and Burns' crew were prepping for a brawl. T.I quickly requested the mic in an attempt to calm things down and you know - avoid heading back to jail.
T.I attempted to reason with Diddy that they're making too much money to fight over who's not drinking Ciroc. Watch the video. Catch a few pics of BET Awards 2011 below...

Young Jeezy Denies Dissing Rick Ross In His B.M.F. Freestyle
Young Jeezy came out yesterday to deny that he dissed Rick Ross in his "B.M.F." Freestyle "Death Before Dishonor". Jeezy claimed that his song was recorded even before Rick Ross released his version of "B.M.F." and that it was supposed to appear on his TM103 album until Ross' version blew up. Jeezy claims that as the reason he released it now on his upcoming 1000 Grams mixtape. Young Jeezy says that people are reading too much into his lyrics in the song. “It’s not a dis. First of all, I’m not gonna get nothing out of dissing that guy. That’s one. What am I gonna get out of dissing him? I think sometimes people can read into things too deep. They trippin’ man. They crazy out there. Basically, if homie takes that as a dis, he’s insecure, and anybody else out there who does, they are insecure."
Do you think it was a sneak diss or was Jeezy telling the truth?

Update: Young Jeezy May Have Been Stabbed In Brawl
Dj Drama and Young Jeezy have beef over a mixtape that Drama put out last year. The two used to be friends - but if you ask them - there's no real beef. So why if the actual people say there's no real beef why do the people in their crew insist on being knuckleheads?!
In Atlanta last night more than 20 people were involved in a brawl, shots were fired and 3 men were hospitalized for stab wounds. Are Drama and Jeezy's crew were fighting to prove who was more loyal? What's the point?! SMDH
Update: More news is becoming available on the brawl that took place at the Jeremih concert in Atlanta where we reported 3 people were stabbed and hospitalized. Word is that Jeezy was one of the 3 people stabbed and is listed in stable condition.

Young Jeezy Says Real G's Don't Make Dis Records For Exposure
 Young Jeezy recently released a track called 24/23 that goes in on Gucci Mane and OJ Da Juiceman. Despite the song Jeezy says he wants no part in the BS and that he's all about getting his money and Gucci Mane should do the same. Jeezy said,
"It was more so of when dude went away, did his little time or whatever — he came back. The sh-- was squashed. I wasn't trippin' on him. I was getting my money on. I wasn't really paying attention what was going on [with Gucci]. He started taking shots on his little mixtapes. I was really kinda done with it, because on 'Stay Strapped,' I killed him with one verse. To make a long story short, I'm tired of the bullsh--, because I know him. He ain't like that. To be honest, I don't have a problem with Gucci because I wear it — I have a problem with Radric [Gucci's Mane's given name]." LOL
Gucci says that Jeezy is dissing him just to build hype. It's pretty clear who needs the hype around them - or is it? Either way, check out more on why Jeezy Dissed Gucci.

Young Jeezy Fires Back and Bill O'Reilly
Recently the Klan's secret agent Bill O'Reilly got on his soap box to hate on Jay-Z and Jeezy's inaugural rap speech My President is Black remix. To us, it was Jeezy's letter to the people, but O'Reilly called it low class amongst some other racist crap that isn't worth writing about. Here is a video of O'Reilly showing his hood and cape colors- which ain't black.
Well now there is a remix to the remix and Jeezy definitely throws an uppercut punch at O'Reilly telling him to "eat a dick". I say eat two, but one will do for now. Have a listen for yourself of the Jay-Z and Jeezy Remix.

Young Jeezy Accepts Fox’s Bill O’Reilly’s Invite
 Young Jeezy has decided to “keep it real” and accept an invitation to a verbal death match with Fox conservative fire mouth host Bill O’Reilly. Anybody who have watched The O’Reilly Factor knows how this guy gets down and if this is any clue [check video here] on how Jeezy will get down then it might be one depressing day for Hip Hop.
Here’s what Jeezy had to say about never backing down; “Damn right! I ain’t never ran, nah mean?” “At the end of the day, you’re dealing with cats who think that we as young black men don’t know what it is we do. We entrepreneurs, we came from nothing. If you gotta mispronounce my name to try to be funny and you got a Harvard or whatever education you got, then you’re really showing how ignorant you are.”What do you think, can Jeezy pull off?

DJ Drama Brawls With “ Thugs” From Young Jeezy Crew
I guess it was too much to ask to have peace at the countrywide premieres of Biggie’s biopic, Notorious B.I.G. I would expect maybe Lil Kim busting up on the red carpet and slapping Diddy – but a brawl with DJ Drama and Young Jeezy’s crew?!?! Not so much.
Here’s the scoop: Last month it was reported that DJ Drama was having issues with Young Jeezy, but Drama explained that Jeezy is his dude and they’re fam. However at the Dirty Awards his partner was in a scuffle with Jeezy’s crew and now at the Notorious B.I.G premiere in Atlanta (Monday) there was another scuffle.

Akon and Young Jeezy Plan Best of Both Worlds Album
Akon and Young Jeezy!! You get the picture. The mega hip-hop stars will be producing an album together that will be hotter than R.Kelly and Jay’s “The Best of Both Worlds”.
According to Abu the young CEO of Konvict Muzik, “It’s gon be a classic!” No doubt that mostly everything Akon touches turns platinum and Jeezy hasn’t been to bad – so expect for things to be on fire. Although I would hold out on the ‘classic’ talk for right now, Luda did call his recent album a classic and it’s uh not so much right now. No date has been set for the album release.
Check the young CEO make his predictions here and Akon and Jeezy most recent collaboration for “I’m So Paid” here.

Young Jeezy gives back to the community for christmas
 Our favorite reformed dope boy Young Jeezy is feeling the Ole St. Nick spirit by handing out presents to needy children during the annual Christmas program at Narvie J. Harris elementary school, in Atlanta.
Jeezy is no stranger to giving community handouts and has also donated $5,000 to the Hosea Feed the Hungry and Homeless charity.
All rappers should take a page from the 50 Cent manual-clean up your image with community service and fancy suits-then you'll become an icon.

DJ Drama and Young Jeezy Got Beef?
 Got beef? It depends on who you ask. According to DJ Drama, “As far as Young Jeezy and DJ Drama, [we] made history together. I think DJ Drama is very important in Young Jeezy's career, as Young Jeezy is important in DJ Drama's career. I respect Jeezy, I like his music.” Interesting – ask Drama’s business partner La the Darkman and get a different story. Darkman at the Dirty Awards fought with a member of Jeezy’s Corporate Thugz Entertainment squad because Jeezy dissed Drama at a New York City performance in September.
More evidence that Drama is side-stepping the beef, T.I. is offering to play the mediator saying, "Both of them are my guys..We're working on it right now. It's love."
Either DJ Drama is the ultimate man of divide and conquer or he truly doesn’t want any ‘drama’ – pun intended.

Young Jeezy's "My President is Black" Video Shoot Sneak Peak
 Dime Wars presents an exclusive behind the scenes footage from Young Jezzy's My President is Black video shoot. Hundreds of people turned out to the historic Ebenezer Baptist Church on Auburn Ave to be a part of this world significant video recognizing our first black president. From the street boys to the dimes on set, everyone sang the chorus like they owned it,“My president is black/My Lambo’s blue/I’ll be goddamned if my rims ain’t too.” The MC says Obama becoming president was as shocking to folk as it was when Jeezy rolled into the housing projects in his blue Lamborghini. “When I pulled up in my car, that shit was unbelievable to people in my neighborhood because they were like, ‘We grew up with him. How the hell did he accomplish this?’ ” he says. “I feel like it was the same way with Obama. I grew up all this time, but I’ve never seen a black man this close to running this country.”
