At 25 Bow Wow has experienced more career highs than rappers well out of his age range—yet he still has more to prove. With six No. 1 singles, over 10 million albums sold, and holding the Guinness World Record as the “Youngest Solo Rapper to Ever Hit No. 1,” he could easily retire from the game and focus on his acting career. But music is still a top priority. Hip-Hop Wired caught up with the rapper for his first in-depth interview since announcing his tour, where he spoke on the new album, the suicide rumors, and how having a daughter changed his life.

‘I’m not the reason she’s gone,’ singer’s ex-husband tells Matt Lauer in upcoming ‘Today’ show chat. By Kara Warner Matt Lauer talks to Bobby Brown on “Today” Photo: NBC News Their relationship may have been tumultuous and their struggles with substance abuse well-documented, but Bobby Brown insists that he is not the reason ex-wife Whitney Houston started doing drugs, a habit that she battled right up until her death in February. “I’m not the one that got Whitney on drugs, at all,” Brown told “Today” host Matt Lauer in an interview set to air on Wednesday and Thursday. “I’m not the reason she’s gone.” Brown admitted that when he learned of his ex’s death, he was saddened to hear she had started using cocaine again. “I was hurt … because, you know, me being off of narcotics for the last seven years — I felt that she was, you know, I didn’t know she was struggling with it still. But at the same time, you know — listen, it’s a hard fight,” he said. Regarding his involvement in Houston’s drug use, Brown said that drugs were a part of Houston’s life before they met in 1991. “I smoked weed, I drank the beer, but no, I wasn’t the one that got Whitney on drugs at all,” he insisted. “It’s just, it’s just unexplainable, how one could [say that I] got her addicted to drugs. I’m not the reason she’s gone.” The New Edition member said that Houston seemed to have “a glow about her” the last time he saw her over dinner at a restaurant with their daughter, Bobbi Kristina, which was about a week before she died. “She just looked like she was in a good place,” he said.

‘My dog ain’t pass; I ain’t accepting that,’ Waka tells MTV News of his friend’s December murder. By Rob Markman, with reporting by Michael Primo Waka Flocka Flame Photo: MTV News Despite the few months that have passed, it is still very difficult for Waka Flocka Flame to come to terms with the murder of his friend Mario “Slim Dunkin” Hamilton . “My dog ain’t pass. I ain’t accepting that,” Waka told MTV News after a photo shoot in Brooklyn, New York, last week. “You know that sh– is gonna carry with me, though, because he’s me and I’m him. Together we’re Brick Squad, man.” Dunkin, who was an emerging talent in Waka’s Brick Squad Monopoly crew, was shot and killed December 16 after an argument in an Atlanta recording studio. The day after Dunkin’s death, Waka expressed his grief via Twitter. “WISH IT WAS ME … MY F—ING RIGHT HAND IS GONE,” Flocka wrote. The “O Let’s Do It” MC continued to vent over Twitter, writing, “Damn I feel dead” and “IM LOST” in reaction to the tragic news. Flocka dedicated his upcoming June album Triple F Life: Friends, Fans and Family to Dunkin. “What’s behind my Triple F Life wave? The passing of my best friend Dunk. R.I.P. Dunk,” he said. “That boy there was special. That boy there was different.” In March, Vinson “Young Vito” Hardimon, the rapper who police say shot Dunkin, was indicted on charges of murder, felony murder, aggravated assault and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony by a Georgia grand jury. Before he passed, the rapper appeared alongside Waka on his 2010 debut album, Flockaveli, and on Gucci Mane and V-Nasty’s BAYTL LP last year. On Halloween, he dropped Menace II Society, a 20-track mixtape that featured Gucci Mane, Roscoe Dash and Pastor Troy. Related Artists Waka Flocka Flame Slim Dunkin
