Posts about DJ Drama

Fabolous has a bunch of projects coming up including a mixtape with DJ Drama out this Christmas day.

Here’s the official video for “Shut Em Down” by Cory Gunz off his new upcoming Gangsta Grillz mixtape hosted by DJ Drama.

DJ Drama interviewed Lil Wayne today, and it so happens to be Weezy’s birthday. Props to RapRadar for the five part audio below.

DJ Drama and several others have been cleared of all charges stemming from an incident dealing with Lil Wayne and Cash Money Records.

Cash Money Records cited that they weren’t compensated appropriately. Apparently it wasn’t a problem when DJ Drama and Weezy were working together on mixtapes. The problem arose when Drama started selling his mixtapes in stores.

Judge Cederbaum of New York cleared the defendants of any wrong-doing due to the lack of “valid legal claim against the defendants.”

Wallace Colins, the lawyer that represented BCD Music Group, which was named as a defendant in the case, began spilling news regarding the matter at hands.

Here is an excerpt from Mr. Collins.

“The plaintiff, Cash Money Records, had requested that the case be dismissed ‘without prejudice’… which would have meant that Cash Money could try again,” Collins stated. “However, the judge agreed with our request that it be dismissed ‘with prejudice;’ which basically drives a stake through the heart of the action and puts the final nail in the coffin of this lawsuit; it’s over and done!”

Here is a new mixtape from Cam’ron featuring Ma$e, Rick Ross, 40 Cal, Cam’s new artist Vado (who is on like every track and gets a solo too), and more.

In case you missed it Young Jeezy aired out his problems with DJ Drama in an upcoming issue of XXL and we posted it yesterday [click here], and now Drama lives up to his name and has fired back his side of the story:

After reading Jeezy’s unprovoked insults in that XXL article, it seems like the guy’s pretty emotional if u ask me! Maybe he’s dealing wit some things in his career, I don’t know. He did an interview a few months back with Elliot Wilson on rapradar.com and said the total opposite! He was talkin bout, “Drams the homie and we may work together again, etc”. Now I’ve never spoken on our issues because I believe grown man business is just that, and running to the media to whine is not my thing.

Most importantly, his statement about me trying to charge him $20k for a mixtape is a BOLD FACE LIE. I never charged Jeezy for nuthin’. I did 2 Slick Pulla tapes (4th Ward Day, Election Day) for free and a Bloodraw tape (The Indictment Papers) for free. Anything Jeezy ever needed from me, I did without hesitation. He doesn’t want to deal with the real reason why he’s mad.

The tension between us actually started when I deejayed his USDA release party (FOR FREE) and I played a Gucci Mane record. He stormed out of his own party and didn’t speak to me for about 2-3 months. Me being a DJ, I was just rockin’ the crowd and giving the people what they had been requesting. I don’t get involved in that other stuff.

I could go deeper into his angry reaction to me working with Gucci but, again, I’m a stand-up guy. I’m loyal to those who are loyal to me. I’m not even thinkin bout Jeezy. Why all the tough talk to the dj who doesn’t say nothin to him but he doesn’t say nothin tough to the rappers that diss him like Pimp C?

I was shocked by his cowardly attempt to try to slander my name in the upcoming XXL article. And what’s the most shocking is to see him side with the FEDs in my arrest! Wow, since when did that become gangster?!? I’m chillin, never said nuthin’ negative about dude. Check his character…or better yet, ask those around him that he’s done dirty. Ask the folks who ain’t with him anymore, like Coach K, Twin, his former security Big Sam, or my homie Roccett…

We doin’ our thing over here. I’m workin on albums, Gangsta Grillz Vol 3., traveling the world and celebrating success! And I’m still the Mixtape President!

Something tells me this isn’t the last we’ve heard from either of them about this…

In next months XXL Young Jeezy airs out his drama with DJ Drama.

Drama just started acting like a bitch. Drama wanted to be Khaled, but he didn’t want to help nobody. He just changed, period. Look at his crew. The same niggas ain’t around him. You ain’t never been in no streets. I could never have no beef with a nigga like that. He’s a cornball. You made millions off my mixtapes, to the point where the fuckin’ feds scooped you up for bootlegging. I never even made the money he made off of Trap or Die or Tha Streets Iz Watchin, because they were selling and distributing them and making money.

I’m not hating. But we will never do a mixtape together. I didn’t charge that nigga for [contributing a verse to the song '5000 Ones,' on Drama’s official Atlantic Records debut]. But then when I need [a tape for one of my artists], and you want to charge me $20,000?… I’ll slap the shit out of Drama. He knows that. He wasn’t loyal. But me putting my hands on that man ain’t gonna make him respect what I’m saying. I’m just not gonna fuck with him anymore.

A bunch of rappers talking about abolishing record labels, at least in their current incarnation, for 50 minutes. Pretty interesting.

This is the full DVD featuring 50 Cent, Lloyd Banks, Chamillionaire, Bun B, Maino, DJ Drama, Young Buck, Juelz Santana, Green Lantern, Lil Scrappy, Jim Jones, Red Cafe, Mike Jones, Kid Capri and more.

UPDATE: Focus Media has instructed us to take this down, well, by instructed I mean they contacted our host and tried to have us shut down. Please keep in mind we actually didn’t host this file, we embedded it from BooBooTV, the site owned by 50 Cent. Now, embedding a file is not illegal, nor are we responsible for it. If we were, every time someone embedded a YouTube video they would be responsible for it, but no, it doesn’t work that way. So in short, instead of asking BooBooTV to take the file down, a site with a corporate backing and money behind it, they decided to attack us, a 100% independent non profit website; the easier target.

So, it has been removed. But if you want to watch it, it’s out there, just not here anymore… Sorry.
