Jay-Z teams with New Era to release an “All Black Everything” blacked-out Yankees fitted. Details include a tonal “A.B.E” on the back alongside the Blueprint 3’s three red stripes on the side.

These hat’s are dope! I did a little research found someone on eBay selling them right here! Prices? Try $135 Shipped to your door for your size. Rumor has it they were sold for the Yankee’s concert that Jay Z & Eminem did, and rumor has it that they are being sold at the Yankee’s Stadium too.

Forbes Hip Hop Cash Kings 2010

August 18th, 2010 | By Raidz

So every year Forbes releases a list of the richest people in the world. They recently revealed a list for Hip Hop artists/entertainers.

#1. Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter – $63m
#2. Sean “Diddy” Combs – $30M
#3. Aliuane “Akon” Thiam – $21M (Lady Gaga money)
#4. Dwayne “Lil Wayne” Carter – $20M
#5. Andre “Dr. Dre” Young – $17M
#6. Christopher “Ludacris” Bridges – $16M
#7. Calvin “Snoop Dogg” Broadus – $15M
#8. Timothy “Timbaland” Mosley – $14M
#9. Pharrell Williams – $13M
#10 Kanye West – $12M
#11. Aubrey “Drake” Graham – $10M
#12. Clifford “T.I.” Harris – $9M (tie)
#12. Kasseem “Swizz Beatz” Dean – $9M (tie)
#14. Marshall “Eminem” Mathers – $8M (tie)
#14 Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson – $8M (tie)

Jay-Z has topped the list again! A BIG jump from last year’s $35 Million. Why is Jay-Z number one again? For starters, Jigga man owns the 40/40 clubs, is partial owner of the New Jersey Nets basketball team. Oh and I neglected to mention that he earns more than $1 million PER. SHOW. Among being the highest earner this year, guess how much he is being taxed on it? $22 Million dollars worth. That is more than what everyone earned this year (with the exception of P. Diddy) that he is just paying in TAXES.

Speaking of Mr. Combs, his Ciroc branded Vodka is making most of his money (I can say that it is goood). Then his movie role in the comedy, Get Him to The Greek. Don’t forget about those Diddybeats headphones. Which is a subsidiary of Dr. Dre’s, Beats by Dre.

Miss Lady Gaga is making millions right? With her Monster Ball tour & smash album. But who signed her? Why none other than, AKON! That’s right, Akon that guy who threw that kid off stage.

BTW what happened to Mr. Curtis Jackson? Remember the Forbes 1, 2, 3 song? Ouch.

As you can see, most of the music producers fill up the list. Almost most of them do own their record label as well. So their income isn’t just coming from one source.

Remember make your moves & network as much as possible, and grind it out for your LIFE, not someone else’s!

Lebron James disses Jay Z

July 25th, 2010 | By EVAxR0CKz

Rumor has it Jay Z is very upset with Lebron James. Word is Jay feels James did the ultimate “no-no” and dissed him! We all know if you diss Jay, you no longer exist in dude’s eyes. Story goes that Jay Z feels Lebron handled his free agency completely wrong. Why does he think this? Well, supposedly, while Lebron was too busy over publicizing his “decision”, Jay Z was trying to get a hold of him to ask about considering the New Jersey Nets. James was dodging his calls and eventually revealed he was going to play for Miami.

So why would all this make Jay Z so angry? Well, Jay does business with the Nets management & his word was to bring star players to the team. Now that Jay has no star in his hands, the management considers him worthless. We all know the way to get a business man heated is by messing with his business or his value.

Well, personally, I can see both sides. Number one, Lebron should have at least taken one call and told Jay he wasn’t interested. At the same time, Jay should of known better that Lebron already had his choices narrowed down. As much as I hate to say it, I have to say the fault is with Lebron. Homie could have at least wrote a text message or email to Jay saying “sorry, not interested.” This situation reminds me of a one night stand, everything is cool until someone wants more…then you get dissed and you look like a fool. Hah!

P.S.- I can’t stand Jay Z so this news is bitter sweet for me!

May 12th, 2010 | By All Day

TMZ reports

LeBron James just got the sweetest offer in the history of mankind to move from Cleveland to the New York Knicks — a lifetime of free stripper action.

The Cleveland Cavaliers star — who will become a free agent after this season — is getting million-dollar offers from several franchises to make the switch to their team … but if LeBron inks a deal with the Knicks, New York’s premiere strip club Scores says it’ll give the basketball star:

- A free lifetime of lap dances
- A “LeBron James Day” when all the strippers will wear his jersey
- And free food for life at the strip club’s very own steakhouse.

Good luck competing with that Utah!

Maybe his good friend, Jay-Z Can convince him…..

May 4th, 2010 | By All Day

Although J and Beyonce hardly ever speak on their relationship, it is known that Jay-Z and Beyonce are crazy about each other. Reports, rumors, and pictures have surfaced that the singing diva got the word Brooklyn tattooed on her left hand. Now this may not seem like a big deal, but Bey isn’t from Brooklyn like Jay, so she basically is putting on for her hubby’s city. Is she a down ass chick or what?
