News Drenched in Nouget and Caramel

Busta Rhymes has decided to fight four trials at once, two for assaults, and two for vehicular offenses, (drunk driving and driving with a suspended license). He recently rejected a plea deal that would have landed him only a year in prison for all four charges.



Well... say "hi" to Mystikal for me.

Master P is making another movie: "Black Supaman". It's about a guy from the ghetto (really, Master P making a movie about the ghetto?...), who smokes weed (...and weed too?!), and wears red tights. Almost as creative a concept as me doing this:



All this is coming after he talked about uplifting people and being part of solution in response to 50 Cent's jab on BET, (which I posted earlier, actually). If by uplifting you mean:



...then I suppose you got it, P.

Multi-platinum group Outkast have given some hints as to what their collective future holds.

Andre 3000 has gone on record saying that there WILL be a new Outkast record, (collective sigh of relief)... but it may have to wait at least two years (disappointed gasp)... but Big Boi and Andre are doing solo albums (collective sigh of relief)... but there's no word on when (disappointed gasp).



Between his seemingly endless amount of guest spots on other songs, (with Lloyd, Devin the Dude, Rich Boy, UGK, Q-Tip and Unk) Andre had this to say to MTV.com about his solo album: "Really, I gotta find out what I'm tryin' to say," he said. "It's almost like a picnic — you call your auntie and say, 'You bringin' some greens? Yeah? OK, I'm not gonna bring any greens.' I gotta find out what I gotta cook up. But to quote James Brown, 'Whatever it is, it's got to be funky.'"



Big Boi hasn't been keeping out of the spotlight either, with appearances with Diddy, Sleepy Brown, Bubba Sparxxx, Rich Boy, Gorilla Zoe, Lloyd and Fantasia, as well as making an album with DJ Ideal (Da Bottom, Vol. 7) as well as roles in the movies A.T.L. and Who's Your Caddy?. Apparently, in addition to that, he's working on an unnamed piece with Purp that will be performed, (this'll blow your mind...), ON STAGE in April '08.

His new album promises to be "something from every genre". He currently has around 35 beats laid down for it, and is writing/mixing vocals as we speak. It slated for late 2007, that is, unless "they keep pulling me back and forth with these movies".

Unless you've been living under a rock, you know T.I.'s new album dropped, T.I. Vs. T.I.P.. Despite claims that he'd have the "album of the year" it's only moved around 750,000 units.
