LL Talks Exit 13; Denies Signing To G-Unit
by FuKdAtShHh on Jul.10, 2008, under Hip Hop News
After a 2 year hiatus, veteran LL Cool J is gearing up for the release of Exit 13, his 13th and final LP under his Def Jam recording deal. Unlike his other albums, the Farmer’s Boulevard legend has worked closely with another Queens native, rapper 50 Cent. Some have expressed concern that LL may pattern himself after 50’s more successful albums, such a Get Rich or Die Tryin’, a claim the MC quickly denied. “Watching him work made me hungry again, but it was also important for me to come out with an LL Cool J album that doesn’t sound like I’m trying to be 50 Cent,†LL clarified. “I’m not doing that.†LL also dismissed rumors that he was attempting to sign to G-Unit over his dissatisfaction with Def Jam’s promotion of his last album. “There were a lot of, for lack of a better word, doe-does out there that were like ‘LL is going to sign to G-Unit,’†the veteran laughed. “I don’t know what these guys were thinking. Why would I work for 20 years to sign to another artist? I don’t know where the stupidness came from. I don’t think they understand who they’re dealing with and the reason why I’m here.â€

50’s Ex Sues For $50 Million; Court Battle Starts Next Week
by FuKdAtShHh on Jul.10, 2008, under Hip Hop News
Paul Catsandonis, lawyer for 50 Cent
ex Shaniqua Tompkins, has disclosed that his client is suing the rapper
for $50 million dollars in damages resulting from a fire than destroyed
the home she was living in. In May, a suspicious fire destroyed 50’s
Long Island property, which the Queens mogul had successfully obtained
eviction on for Tompkins. In the fallout, Tompkins accused 50 of
setting the fire himself to avoid having to honor an agreement made
between them. She has since filed a restraining order. “There wasn’t a
written contract but an expressed oral agreement, which is recognized
in the New York courts,†Catsandonis said. In upcoming court
proceedings, Catsandonis will argue that the relationship between 50
and Tompkins could be viewed as a common-law marriage. He plans to set
a precedent case in New York for future parties who have legal disputes
in these arrangements.
