‘I feel for you to be rich forever, you have to be rich with ideas,’ Rozay tells Mixtape Daily of his 2012 standout. By Rob Markman Rick Ross Photo: MTV News Main Pick Headliner : Rick Ross, DJ Scream, Shaheem Reid Representing : Miami, Florida Mixtape : Rich Forever Real Spit : Sometimes differentiating between a mixtape and an album can be difficult, especially when a mixtape is crafted with such care, like Rick Ross ‘ Rich Forever . The 19-song opus dropped at the top of the year as an appetizer for Rozay’s upcoming God Forgives, I Don’t LP. But almost four months later, it is clear that the Maybach Music Boss has created a tape that will transcend the shelf life of most free Internet downloads. “As far as the title of the mixtape goes, it’s Rich Forever. It’s a lyric that I’ve used in the past, several times. Not only that, I really believe it,” MTV’s most recent Hottest MC in the Game crown holder told Mixtape Daily. “I feel for you to be rich forever, you have to be rich with ideas, rich with concepts, rich with thoughts; to me that’s what being rich forever is.” Rozay didn’t just rely on his own wealth, he recruited a flock of well-to-do friends like Diddy, Nas, John Legend, Birdman and Kelly Rowland to contribute. “Stay Schemin’,” which features Drake and French Montana, has crossed over and made a dent on Billboard ‘s R&B Chart , so far peaking at #49. While “Schemin’ ” may be the most identifiable song off of Rich Forever, the tape is filled with a number of standouts. “Ring Ring” with Future is a playful ode to the ladies, and on “Holy Ghost,” Diddy prays to God to keep his bank account intact while Rozay denounces the devil and other speed bumps on his road to riches. “Yella Diamonds” is another pledge to money, this time featuring Cash Money CEO Birdman. “My dough be shinin’ like it’s yella diamonds,” Ross raps on the song’s rambunctious hook. The Bawse keeps things lively but does slow it down on the tape’s title track. With R&B crooner John Legend in tow, Ross runs down his career in retrospect. “Def Jam on my heels, should I sign to it?/ Million-dollar advance for me to rhyme fluent/ Every day I’m hustlin’ on every corner boomin’/ Back of the Phantom, I couldn’t fathom/ I was such a student,” he spits about the circumstances leading up to his 2006 debut album Port of Miami. Ross has grown significantly in the six years since dropping his first LP, and Rich Forever more than proves it. No longer a hustler on the come-up, Rick Ross now runs the game with enough riches to last him a lifetime. Joints to Check For
‘Transformers’ actress expecting her first child with husband Brian Austin Green. By Kara Warner Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green Photo: Todd Williamson/ Getty Images Although the tabloid media has been obsessing over Megan Fox for years — ever since she made her blockbuster debut in the 2007 moneymaker “Transformers” — they’ll have a whole new reason to pay close attention to the star for the next few months: The 25-year-old is reportedly pregnant with her first child. According to E! Online , Fox is expecting a bundle of joy with husband Brian Austin Green. The new addition to their family will be the second child for Green, who also has a 10-year-old son, Kassius, with ex Vanessa Marcil. MTV News reached out to Fox’s reps for comment but have yet to receive confirmation. The news might not come as a surprise to the folks over at Star magazine, who initially broke the story about Fox’s pregnancy in late March via a source close to the couple. “They just found out and are incredibly excited,” a source told Star at the time. “Megan has become a great stepmom, and Brian knows she’ll be wonderful with the baby.” The “Friends With Kids” star has also stated publicly that she is eager to become a mother. “I want at least two, probably three kids,” the actress said in a recent interview with Cosmopolitan magazine. “I’ve always been maternal.” Fox and Green met while filming the sitcom “Hope and Faith” back in 2004 and the pair were married in Hawaii in June 2010. The actress has said their relationship works because they are best friends. “I feel like I’m with my best friend,” she told MTV News about Green . “I’ve been with him for so long, so it feels natural and comfortable.” Share your well-wishes for the couple in the comments!

‘Jack still dies,’ director says of the 3-D re-release which he says ‘reinvents’ the 1997 flick. By Kevin P. Sullivan James Cameron Photo: MTV News When “Titanic” hits the big screen again on April 4, the ship will be changing course and heading directly into the audience. Director James Cameron has been one of 3-D’s biggest proponents for years now and has suggested in the past that any film is open for a three-dimensional makeover. It only makes sense, then, that he put his money where his mouth is and converted his own “Titanic.” Cameron spoke with MTV UK about the process and why the real reward of the re-release is the chance to see his blockbuster on the silver screen again after 15 years. The director insisted that the movie remains as it was back in 1997, except for the added dimension. “It ends the same way. The ship still sinks. Jack still dies. Oops, I hope I didn’t spoil it,” he said. As Cameron has said before, he believes that the 3-D element of the re-release plays a supporting role. He simply wants people to see “Titanic” as it was meant to be seen: in a theater. “I think the first thing you should think of, the most important thing, is that you’re going to see it in a movie theater, which is really fundamentally different for anyone who is under a certain age. It hasn’t been in a theater for 15 years, so people know it from video. But they haven’t taken that ride where you commit to the three hours, and you’re going to go on that emotional rollercoaster, and you’re going to come out of the end of the movie in a certain mental, emotional state. It’s very different.” That isn’t the say that the 3-D doesn’t add anything. Cameron sees the conversion as a way to reinterpret the experience. “The 3-D is a kind of way of doing that, a way of reinventing the film, and the 3-D does add something to the experience that was never there before, an immediacy, even an intimacy, which is interesting.” Luckily for Cameron, he had originally shot “Titanic” in a way that was conducive to a 3-D conversion. “Even though I wasn’t shooting it as a 3-D movie 15 years ago, my particular style is to use wider lenses and to wrap the actors in the scenery,” Cameron said. “Because the ship — I don’t like to use the term that it was a character — but the environment was constantly informing what was happening, the elegance, the beauty of the ship, the gilt-edged luxury juxtaposed with steerage third class. All those themes are really manifested in the physicality of the ship. The style of seeing all of that when you convert it to 3-D, it just has this lucidity. You just feel like you’re there.” Are you planning on seeing the 3-D re-release of “Titanic”? Leave your comment below!

In a step up from previous Skyfall publicity memes like #Banal007 and James Bond’s Big Gay Resort brochure , the Daily Mail has a glimpse at Javier Bardem in character as the film’s as-yet-unnamed villain. The catch: He’s in costume as a police officer. Where have we seen this before? As other observers have pointed out , the blockbuster-franchise-baddie-as-cop routine perhaps reached its zenith in The Dark Knight , featuring Heath Ledger’s Joker impersonating one of Gotham City’s finest before busting loose with an assassination attempt. Bardem’s character has the same malevolent scowl; I doubt he’s charged with issuing parking tickets on double parked Aston Martins, but who knows? [ Daily Mail via Cinema Blend ]
Avengers director Joss Whedon spent much of his weekend in Austin at SXSW pounding the pavement for The Cabin in the Woods (that is, when he wasn’t busy dancing into the wee hours of the night) but he also managed to mostly deflect the laser geek gaze of the bloggerati when it came to divulging information about his upcoming Marvel superhero pick. That said, he did offer up one huge clarification on a matter Avengers fans have been trying to root out via various clues and tea leaves: Who are the villains under Loki’s command? “I will say only this: It is not the Kree or the Skrulls,” said Whedon during his SXSW panel. “Those two aliens are Marvel mainstays and have enormous backstories. They have a big life of their own that just could not be contained in a film where I already had seven movie stars.” “The Skrulls — they can shape change. That’s a whole thing. I’ve already got Loki. He’s got magic. Once you got magic along with your Iron Man and your Black Widow — it’s a real juggling act.” He’s got a great point; Loki’s magic plus the appearance of alien races like the Kree and Skrull might feel a tad too fantastical for this Avengers outing. But wait, that’s not all! What else won’t The Avengers be/feature/include (via Collider )? • A too-short runtime: “My first cut was three hours long, and it’s now down to 2 hours and 15 minutes, and I’m extremely proud of that. I had always intended to go over two, under two and a half. There was no way a movie with this many great actors and this much epic scope was gonna clock in under two and not feel a little anemic. Somebody wasn’t gonna get their moment if that happened.” • An overlong runtime: “But at the same time, I get very angry that romantic comedies run over two hours long, it’s like ‘Guys, that’s not OK.’ More isn’t more. I don’t want anything in the movie that shouldn’t be.” • Nods at Whedon properties outside of the Marvel universe, which would be weirdly conspicuous anyway: “I am not a fan of referencing your own work when it’s in a different universe than what you’re doing. That, to me, is a wink at the audience and winking isn’t actually cool when you’re not, like, 10.” • That Jeff Beck cover of that one Stevie Wonder/Syreeta song “Cause We’ve Ended as Lovers,” which was too expensive to include in a Tony Stark scene. Stay tuned for more from SXSW .
You might have noticed a glaring omission in this morning’s Weekend Receipts , but probably not: Even I couldn’t be bothered to remember that an Eddie Murphy movie not only opened on Friday (to catastrophically bad reviews; the Rotten Tomatoes “fresh” rating remains at a super-rare 0% ) but also concluded the weekend with a brutal $6.25 million gross &mdash making for a sixth-place finish and a $3,360-per-screen average. This would make A Thousand Words the third straight Murphy-led film to open under $7 million — quite the opposite from last fall’s reasonably successful ensemble effort Tower Heist and his voice work in the blockbuster Shrek franchise. Factor in his Oscars-hosting debacle, and you kind of have to ask yourself: Is this it for Eddie? Generally I’d try for a little more optimistic reading of the scenario; I mean, if we can devote time and space to attempting to rehabilitate Renee Zellweger’s career , then Eddie Murphy is worth at least that much effort. But this is bad , if only because the confluence of Murphy’s historic arrogance and decade-long decline in taste has produced the perfect storm of irrelevance: Older audiences who loved him in the ’80s and could admire the creative risk he took in Dreamgirls have all but given up, and he doesn’t move the needle among young audiences for whom Meet Dave , Imagine That and now A Thousand Words have proven sixth- or maybe fifth-choice moviegoing at best. There’s nowhere to go, really, but back to second-billing behind guys like Ben Stiller and even — gasp — Mike Myers, the latter of whom isn’t exactly tearing up the non- Shrek market himself. But that won’t happen. This is a guy who was going to ride the Academy Awards back to the cultural A-list, or at least let the wave elevate Tower Heist ‘s profile last November and burnish the otherwise lackluster A Thousand Words in whatever post-Oscar afterglow he could get. Obviously, for reasons both known and unknown, that didn’t transpire . There’s a bottom line here, though, that gets to the larger problem with Eddie Murphy in 2012: If Murphy had wanted to preserve the job, then he could have. He would have. Instead, on the Monday after his latest cinematic miscarriage, we’re talking about arguably the most complacent actor in Hollywood — a man perfectly happy to eat shit sandwiches and wipe his mouth with $100 bills as long as some retrograde studio boss is setting the table. And I guess that’s fine? It’s not my money (nor yours, in all likelihood, unless you run DreamWorks, in which case you have bigger problems anyway). But its diminishing returns have transcended alarm into something more approximating schadenfreude: We wish less that Murphy would get back to the business of being trailblazingly funny or edgy or adventurous than that his next, now-routine clusterfuck will be the one that finally sends him into the sunset counting his money. Not that we necessarily want the worst for Murphy. He just seeks it out for himself, and the more it compromises his legacy — extraordinary films like 48 Hours , Delirious , Trading Places , Coming to America and others pushing a quarter-century old — the more it compromises us. Watching Beverly Hills Cop should not feel bittersweet. So as much as I sincerely would love to be wrong, it looks like we’ve finally lost Eddie Murphy, movie star — a legend forsaken for Eddie Murphy, character actor, or worse yet, Eddie Murphy, king of paycheck inertia. And if we have indeed reached a point of no return, then let’s have our laments here and now and be done with it. There’s too much ambition worth experiencing and appreciating elsewhere. Follow S.T.
