“I’ve seen how artists make sure they look and act different when the cameras are around. But The Entourage DVD is all about my friends being themselves—these people just happen to be huge rap stars.” Scoob says about his recent DVD release.

“I think a lot of people may think Wayne is not a strategic person and that he’s just drunk and high all day. That’s not true at all—he’s working harder than everyone around him.” Scoob tells VIBE regarding Lil Wayne’s work ethic. “Weezy will only sit down for 20 minutes out of 15-hour studio session. He just doesn’t stop.”

“I got videos for the Carter IV and the I’m not a Human Being EP all ready. I can’t say the name of the song but Wayne was singing on the hook, but they’re getting Drake to re-do it and it’s off the Human Being EP,” Scoob says. “Carter IV is probably the best album I’ve heard in the last decade, but Wayne is such a different artist now that wants to record new music when he comes home. The stuff he’s talking about now is just on another level. That’s why a lot of the songs on the EP were originally taken from the Carter IV.” – VIBE

“Tha Carter IV plans we had and still have are to put Tha Carter IV out the day he comes out of prison,” Mack said Thursday in New York. “He had so many songs for Tha Carter IV, we said let’s just put these 10 songs out on I Am Not a Human Being and double-back for Tha Carter IV. He has more songs for Tha Carter IV that are still strong.”

“It’s basically me, him, Baby and Cortez Bryant mapping it out,” Mack explained. “We had a listening session out here. It was me, Baby and Cortez. I let Wayne know these are the ones we picked. He already picked six of them from back there. I let him hear it over the phone. I book him a studio session — kinda like I did for the ‘Light Up’ up remix with Drake. I book him a studio session and let him listen to tracks over the phone. ‘Do you like this one?’ ‘Yeah?’ ”

“We might just drop the album that day,” Mack said of C4. “Just hope it don’t leak out and drop it that day. I think it would be crazy, the anticipation.”

“That’s where we are aiming for now,” Mack explained. “I think the Madison Square Garden would be perfect. I wanna keep it Young Money. I think we can hold our own. As far as his set, it would be nice to have features and cameos on his set. As far as who opens for him, it’ll be a no-brainer, Young Money could hold it down. Just have the big features on Wayne’s set. He’s gonna have a show, then go to the studio. I just had a birthday recently. I had four parties for my birthday. For him, it’s no telling how that week would go, how that month would go. Five months would go. We’re gonna party like when Frank came home in ‘King of New York.’ We’re gonna go crazy.” – MTV

So according to the Young Money President, Mack Maine, we might be getting Weezy’s Tha Carter IV album on the day he is released from prison which is November 4th 2010! The plans for this album keep changing, because we last heard that Tune was gonna re-do the whole album once he gets out from behind bars. Let us know what you think about this in the comments, I mean could we really get C4 on Nov 4th and then a “Welcome Home Weezy” concert on Nov 5th Or is it all too good to be true But one thing is for sure, we are getting the I’m Not A Human Being EP on Wayne’s birthday, September 27th.

Hit the jump to read Tunechi’s thoughts on the upcoming US Open, which starts next Monday, to Sports Illustrated from a letter which he sent from Rikers Island. Props to TUD!

I genuinely appreciate this opportunity to express my love for tennis. One of the main reasons I enjoy the sport so much is because when I actually tried to play, it was unbelievably difficult. So ever since, I’ve been drawn to the great talents of the game. Not to mention Andre Agassi was like a pop star when I was a kid. I love the Williams sisters. I simply adore Maria Sharadova and I’m a huge [Rafael] Nadal fan! I’m definitely rooting for him to get the Grand slam and win the US Open. He’s already became the 2nd youngest player to win 8 major titles before the age of 25. He’s halfway there to Roger [Federer's] 16. And even while battling knee tendonitis, he’s still ranked #1. His Wimbledon performance was one of a kind. He simply plays with pure passion and leaves it all out there on the court. With [Juan Martín] Del Potro pulling out of this years Open with injury, Nadal’s only threats are obviously Federer, Djokovic, and Roddick’s aggressive play, but the player that scares me the most is Andy Murray who’s beaten Rafael four times. Even still I say “Nadal wins it all.”

And by the way, I’m giving the edge to [Kim] Clijsters in the Women’s singles due to Serena’s right foot. Again, I’m very thankful for this opportunity.

Respectfully, Wayne

Do we have any Tennis fans who are on LWHQ If so, let us know if you agree with what Wayne said in the comments below.

Here is the music video for Lil Wayne’s “Ground Zero” track from his Rebirth album. Shanell stars in the video, but something is telling me that this is a visual from one of SnL’s upcoming music videos and someone just placed the audio over it. I say this because I know she shot a lot of music videos recently for some of her mixtape songs… but who knows? Like I say, this is just my ‘guess’, and don’t forget to leave a comment with your thoughts on this vid below!

Here is a new Weezy track entitled “Cascades“. It is only one verse and it is still unknown what this verse is for. The verse is tagged, but the no DJ version is dropping soon. We now have the song tagless! You can stream/download the track below and leave your thoughts on the verse in the comments section.

“I make her say my name… in CAPITAL LETTERS”

Last week, we posted that Lil Wayne’s new single ,”Right Above It“, featuring Drake reached #1 on iTunes. This week, we’re glad to say that “Right Above It” has debuted at #6 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart, not to mention it is #1 on Billboard’s Digital Songs chart. This adds to the list of Weezy songs to reach the top 10, and from the looks of it this song will reach #1 in no time. After the jump you can view a video of T.I. saying that Tunechi is the only person, other than him, that could claim the title of “King of the South“. Be sure to leave your thoughts on Wayne’s achievement and the video in the comments box.

“It doesn’t bother me at all,” Tip said about his fellow Southern contenders. “Another point I often make is the success of another person, the rise or fall of another individual has no bearing on my title. No matter how much a person does from this day forward, it doesn’t take away from the things I’ve done to this day. I’m gonna have to stop for a long time to let you start for a long time in order for you to catch up, no matter how much you do, and not taking away from anybody, not saying nothing bad about nobody — you gonna have to do what you’re doing right now times two, times three, seven times over in order to be where I am right now…As far as from a standpoint of success, the only person who is in a position to make a claim like that sort would be Lil Wayne, as far as success, from a numbers standpoint. As far as longevity and success, that’s the only person I feel like can say that.”

In the clip above, Lil Wayne is seen chillin’ with Tity Boi, Short Dawg, Marley G, NO Capo, KY Finis, Bigman and DJ Scoob Doo, and he shows that he has officially quit syrup. Weezy says he is drinking Patron right now and “RIP to the syrup”. This footage is from the Entourage DVD and after the jump you can see another clip from the DVD, this time of Birdman showing off his new watch which cost $1.5 million. Only two people in the world have one of these watches and the owner of the other watch is Elton John.

According to AllHipHop, Lil Wayne and Young Money Touring Inc. are suing a former booking agency for $375,000. Weezy has been working with the booking agency, Ujaama Talent Agency Inc., since 2008 and has been on four different tours booked by Ujaama. They owe Tunechi $375,000 in proceeds from his Americas Most Wanted Music Festival, both the Summer and Winter tours. It’s nice to see Wayne getting some money back rather than seeing another lawsuit filed against him. You can read the entire article after the jump and leave your thoughts in the comments box.

Rapper Lil Wayne and his company Young Money Touring Inc. has filed a lawsuit against a former booking agent who allegedly stole $375,000 in touring proceeds.

Lawyers for Lil Wayne filed a lawsuit against Ujaama Talent Agency Inc. and the company’s owners, Erskine Isaac, David Nelson on August 16th in the Supreme Court of the State of New York.

According to the lawsuit, Lil Wayne has worked with the company since the early stages of his career, by organizing and scheduling tours for the chart-topping rap star on a non-exclusive basis.

Between 2008 and January of 2010, Lil Wayne participated in four different tours with Ujaama.

A dispute broke out between the two companies over the proceeds of the two “America’s Most Wanted Music Festival” tours in Summer and Winter of 2009.

Around October of 2009, when Lil Wayne pleaded guilty to possessing a gun on his tour bus, he again engaged the services of Ujaama to book a national tour before he went to jail on Rikers Island.

The lawsuit claims that Isaac and Nelson “elected to divert to Ujaama’s own bank account an amount not less than $375,000, the sum that Isaac and Nelson maintain is owed to Ujaama for the tours in question.

Lil Wayne’s lawyer Ronald Sweeney had various conversations with the pair and asked for the money back, but Isaac and Nelson refused to return the money.

Just this week, Forbes named Lil Wayne the 4th best-earner in Hip-Hop, after he earned $20 million dollars over the past 12 months.

You can watch the official trailer for DJ Scoob Doo’s “Entourage” DVD above which features Lil Wayne, Birdman, Nicki Minaj, Drake, Gucci Mane, Jadakiss and plenty more rappers. I have no idea when this DVD is dropping along with the “Nino Brown Story Part 3“, but we should be getting them this month or next. In the trailer, you can see Weezy showing off how many ringtones he has sold and a little bit of footage from the “WTF” video shoot with Shawty Lo.

Hit the jump to watch Bow Wow sit down with Houston’s 97.9 The Box Madd Hatta Morning Show while promoting his new movie, Lottery Ticket. They talk about Cash Money and the advice he received from Tunechi when he visited him at Rikers Island.

“It was a humbling experience and one thing he told me when I went to visit him was ‘Bow, This ain’t for us, this ain’t it… This ain’t built for cats like us. They don’t understand us we don’t understand them… don’t do it man, just stay out of trouble, you and Drizzy y’all stay clean, y’all stay doing what y’all do, y’all can do this forever. All of this, it ain’t worth it. I knew he meant it, cause Tune never lectures me like that but he was serious.’ His spirits are high. When he gets out we definitely planning on this Young Money Cash Money Tour, myself, Nicki, Drizzy, Wayne and the whole entire family.”

Spotted at RR

Drizzy Drake announced last night via his Ustream broadcast that Lil Wayne will be hosting a concert the day after he is released from prison, November 5th! Weezy will be released from Rikers Island on November 4th and the location for this concert is currently unknown. Drake said to over 30,000 fans who tuned in to his Ustream: “Undisclosed location, November 5th, the Welcome Home Weezy concert”.

In other news which happened last night, DJ Khaled signed with Cash Money Records. So you can be on the lookout for Khaled’s We The Best Forever project that will drop on the CMB label later this year.
