‘Where I come from and in the game, period, the underdog is squeezed out,’ Mullyman tells Mixtape Daily. By Jayson Rodriguez Mullyman Photo: Mullyman Fire Starter: DMV Edition Wale has been making a lot of noise lately after he inked a deal with Rick Ross to join the Bawse’s Maybach Music Group.

According to “Cha Tha God” Pusha won’t make it far in the industry if he doesn’t get rid of the hairstyle. Pusha talks about signing with Kanye West’s Good Music and recording with him down in Hawaii. As for Lebron James baby momma, Pusha didn’t hit that! Download Pusha T’s “Fear Of God” Mixtape For Free!

You know a bitch with a hollywood dream willing to take whatever level she can get and I’m not complaining cuz this story is one that allows us to see tits on eager pussy trying to make it and get famous and that’s gotta be a fetish somewhere and by somewhere I mean right here…… FOLLOW ME
This could be the greatest thing to happen to T-Mobile customers … or the worst thing to happen to the cell phone industry. AT&T Inc. has agreed to buy T-Mobile USA for $39 billion, but the deal isn’t set to close until a year from now, and it will likely face tough regulatory scrutiny. Here’s what a completed deal could mean for customers: – Bigger choice of phones for T-Mobile subscribers. T-Mobile, as a much smaller carrier than AT&T, doesn’t get as many exclusives on top-line phones, and it doesn’t have the iPhone. This won’t be a big benefit to T-Mobile subscribers who don’t have contracts – if they want the iPhone today, they can sign up with AT&T or Verizon Wireless. But subscribers under contract would find it easier to upgrade to an iPhone. – Fewer pricing plans to choose from. T-Mobile and AT&T have different offerings, some of which might disappear from the market. – No more unlimited data plans. AT&T has stopped offering unlimited data plans in favor of plans with monthly data usage caps and overage fees. T-Mobile USA still offers “unlimited” data for smartphones for $30 per month, but slows down downloads after 5 gigabytes of traffic in a month. If the deal closes, current “unlimited” subscribers would likely be grandfathered in, but AT&T would probably stop offering the plan to new subscribers. – Better network coverage. Combining the two networks will improve performance is some areas, because there will be more towers available. However, today’s AT&T phones can’t use T-Mobile’s 3G wireless data network, and vice versa, because they run on different frequencies. – Wider rural broadband coverage. AT&T is pledging to increase spending on the construction of a new ultrafast broadband network by $8 billion, to cover rural areas. – The big question is whether the combination would let AT&T, Verizon and Sprint raise prices on wireless service once competition from T-Mobile disappears. AT&T points out that prices have fallen through a decade of mergers in the industry, but public-interest groups are raising concerns. Source
I was involved in a recent Vanessa Hudgens scandal that I decided I wanted nothing to do with – so I just pretended it never happened….. You see cuz these bitches save face from being whores who release nude pictures they pretend are of her at 17 – in hopes of having her movie succeed – making feel like a talent that doesn’t need Disney’s empire to validate her as a player in the industry….by suing sites like mine for posting shit I find starring them…in what is probably their most notable work. The worst thing in all of it, is that unlike PerezHilton, when I get sued, it doesn’t get any fucking press, and just leaves me fucked in the corner like an immigrant rape victim with no rights – scared to go to the police cuz I’ll get deported….You know what I mean… She did do Shape though, tame and photoshopped – but half naked and uncensored.

Duo’s ‘Opposite of Adults’ up against Duck Sauce for Best Video. By Gil Kaufman Chiddy Bang Photo: C. Brandon/ Redferns There’s no reason Philly alternative hip-hop duo Chiddy Bang should be afraid of a matronly 68-year-old standards singer. But, on the eve of the 2011 Woodie Awards in Austin, Texas, “Chiddy” Anamege and Noah “Xaphoon Jones” Beresin are sweatin’ the competition in the Best Video category thanks to “Barbra Streisand.” The Babs they fear is not, of course, the “Yentl” star herself, but the insanely catchy song that borrows her name from DJ duo Duck Sauce , whose video features cameos from Kanye West, the Roots, Chromeo and Vampire Weekend. “I think the biggest competitor in our category is gonna be ‘Barbra Streisand,’ ” Beresin told MTV News about the video that accompanies the poppy dance track. “That video is crazy. It’s like, ‘Oh man, we’re friends with this famous guy’ … They’ve got so many cameos, and it’s shot really well.” While Bang’s clever clip for the MGMT-sampling “Opposite of Adults” has its own merits, not limited to their cartoonishly gigantic heads, they’ve got plenty of stiff competition in the category from some other stellar clips, as well. They’re up against the Black Keys’ lauded schoolyard beat down in “Tighten Up,” Vampire Weekend’s equally cameo-heavy (Jake Gyllenhaal, Lil Jon, RZA and Joe Jonas) “Giving Up the Gun” tennis throwdown and the Gorillaz’ Bruce Willis-starring desert death race, “Stylo.” In fact, theirs is one of the only clips in that bunch that doesn’t have a marquee cameo, so maybe their lo-fi indie sensibility will win the day after all. Performers at this year’s show, hosted by Donald Glover, include the Foo Fighters, Wiz Khalifa, Odd Future, Sleigh Bells and Two Door Cinema Club. As in previous years, Woodie winners will be determined by fan voting. Voting in most Woodie categories closed Tuesday (March 15), but votes will continue to be counted in the Breaking Woodie category right up until the show. The 2011 mtvU Woodie Awards will air live on MTV, MTV2 and mtvU from the South by Southwest Music Festival in Austin, Texas, on Wednesday, March 16, at midnight ET/PT.

Director is best known for ’30 Days of Night’ and ‘The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.’ By Kara Warner David Slade Photo: Albert L. Ortega/ WireImage Director David Slade is shifting his filmmaking focus from vampires to superheroes. According to Variety, 20th Century Fox has tapped the “Twilight Saga: Eclipse” and “30 Days of Night” director for their next “Daredevil” film. Undisclosed sources close to the project told the industry trade publication that the untitled film will be a continuation of the 2003 version, which starred Ben Affleck, but will not contain any material from that film, which was mostly panned by critics. Much like familiar comic book heroes like Batman, Superman and Spider-Man, Daredevil, a.k.a. Matt Murdoch, is a crime-fighting vigilante. However, unlike his fellow costumed brethren, Daredevil is blind. The positive thing about the radioactive liquid that caused him to lose his sight, however, is that his four remaining senses are heightened beyond normal human ability. Given Slade’s r
The same man who cracks us up each week with dry-witted 30 Rock quotes has grown (somewhat) serious when it comes to Charlie Sheen’s career. In an editorial for The Huffington Post , based on his own experiences with executives in the movie and TV business, Baldwin addresses the troubled actor and says: “You can’t win. Really. You can’t.” Meaning what, exactly? Baldwin gives us a look inside the industry and continues: “No actor is greater than the show itself when the show is a hit. And, in that regard, [executives] are often right. Add to that the fact that the actor who is torturing their diseased egos is a drug-addled, porn star-squiring, near-Joycean Internet ranter, and they really want you to go.” Baldwin is correct that almost all hit shows remain popular and profitable after stars leave. Look at NYPD Blue , ER , CSI . In the end, here’s what Sheen should do, according to Baldwin: “Sober up, Charlie. And get back on TV, if it’s not too late. This is America. You want to really piss off Chuck and Warner Brothers and CBS? Beg for America’s forgiveness. They will give it to you. And then go back. You are a great television star… As I learned from closely observing Tony Bennett so I could impersonate him on SNL , this is supposed to be fun. P.S… buy Cryer a really nice car.” [Photos: Fame, WENN.com]
In Catherine Hardwicke’s frightening version of the fairy tail classic Red Riding Hood , Gary Oldman co-stars as Soloman, a fiery enemy of the occult who is not entirely convinced Valerie (Amanda Seyfried) is who she says. How did Oldman get to the point of eccentric supporting actor in ‘tween bait after starting his career as a scrappy leading man? With every actor a direct line can be traced through their in order to gauge their current place in the industry and, with Oldman, he’s become one of the go-to wicked villains. Let’s take a look at eight milestones in the career of one Gary Leonard Oldman.
