Big Sean first made a name for himself about four years ago when his song “Getcha Some” was a standout on West’s Can’t Tell Me Nothing mixtape. After catching Yeezy at a radio station and impressing him with an impromptu audition, Sean passed on a scholarship to Michigan State University to tour with West and eventually signed with the Chicago rapper’s G.O.O.D. Music imprint in 2007. Since then, Sean has released three volumes of his Finally Famous mixtapes ( The Mixtape, U Know Big Sean and BIG ) to keep his fans satiated, and he was also a regular on West’s G.O.O.D. Friday music leaks. After a few delays, Sean’s long-in-the-making debut album, Finally Famous: The Album, has an official release date of May 3. Right now, Sean can be heard on the album’s No I.D.-produced lead single “My Last,” which features R&B crooner Chris Brown. “I’ve seen and [gone] from doing shows in Detroit and getting booed to people just looking to a couple people knowing the words to doing sold-out shows with thousands and thousands of people just knowing [my songs],” Sean told MTV News from the set of the video for “My Last.” “And it [comes from] years of grinding, man.” Sean performed the song at SXSW and the Detroit spitter also has a verse on West’s soon to be released “All of the Lights” remix with Drake and Lil Wayne .

Crooner is tentatively set to be laid to rest Saturday, followed Sunday by a DJ Quik-hosted benefit. By Jayson Rodriguez, with additional reporting by Rahman Dukes Nate Dogg Photo: MTV News Plans for Nate Dogg’s funeral and wake are starting to shape up, according to a source close to the late singer’s family. Nate Dogg died last week of yet-undetermined causes. The “Regulate” star suffered two strokes in recent years and never fully recovered from the setbacks brought on by the second one, his manager, Rod McGrew , told the media. The crooner is tentatively set to be laid to rest this Saturday with a ceremony preceding the event at the Long Beach Airport, which will be open to fans, according to the family friend. The next day, another tentative event is in the works: a memorial benefit at the Los Angeles Convention Center hosted by DJ Quik. McGrew did not respond to MTV News’ request for comment about the events; a representative for Quik was unable to confirm the information when we contacted him. Warren G, who teamed with Nate Dogg for his hit “Regulate,” spoke to MTV News about his friend’s death following a South by Southwest tribute concert. “I was out on the Sweat Tour with Snoop, and we had got the word from his family on what was going on, and it was just a crushing blow for us,” he said. “Just from going to see him and lifting his spirits up when he was in therapy and stuff like that, it’s just crazy for that to happen. And I still don’t believe it, you know what I’m saying? “It kind of hurts me when I look at this shirt [the organizers of the SXSW tribute show sold Nate Dogg T-shirts, with proceeds going to the late singer’s family], it’s like, ‘Damn, that’s my homeboy on this shirt,’ ” he continued. “And I’m hurting, and you know, a lot of people are showing tons of support for his family, for his homeboys, and we really and truly appreciate that. It’s real love.” Share your well-wishes for Nate Dogg’s friends and family in the comments. Related Videos Remembering Nate Dogg Related Photos Nate Dogg: A Life In Photos Related Artists Nate Dogg

What the hell?? Atlanta Hawks reserve forward Josh Powell was arrested before Saturday night’s game at Philips Arena after police say he repeatedly refused to move his car that was blocking an ambulance. The Riverdale High School graduate was charged with failure to obey an authorized officer directing traffic, failure to yield to emergency equipment and obstruction, Atlanta Police spokesman Curtis Davenport told the AJC. According to police, Powell was attempting to turn onto Park Avenue West from Marietta Street late Saturday afternoon but was unable to do so because of heavy traffic caused by this weekend’s SEC basketball tournament. Powell’s car was blocking the clogged intersection, making it impossible for the ambulance to proceed, Davenport said. “The officer approached Mr. Powell’s vehicle and told him numerous times to go straight through the intersection … [he] refused and was placed under arrest,” Davenport said. Powell, 28, was not in uniform as the Hawks took the court early Saturday evening against the Portland Trail Blazers . The seven-year NBA veteran signed with Atlanta last summer after winning two championship rings as a back-up forward/center for the Los Angeles Lakers. Hawks spokesman Arthur Triche said the organization was made aware charges had been filed against Powell but declined additional comment. Wow. SMH. Was it really even that serious??? Source
