Max B was granted an appeal yesterday for his guilty conviction of a robbery gone bad which resulted in fatality. Max has new legal representation according to his manager Jolie O’Shay. The 2006 robbery, which occurred at a Fort Lee, New Jersey hotel, also involved his then girlfriend, Gina Conway, who was sentenced to 15 years in prison for her role. His stepbrother Kelvin Leerdamn received life in prison with an additional 35 years.

Max is serving a 75 year sentence for his role in the robbery gone bad. Before being sentenced, he was signed to a three year deal with Amalgam Digital in 2008 and was also affiliated with the Diplomats and co-wrote several songs which included “We Fly High” by Jim Jones.

Caesar — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 05:37:47 +0000

This is kinda crazy and out of no where. I like it. Damon Dash, the co-founder of Roc-A-Fella, has formed a new record label to release a rap/rock album with The Black Keys providing the rock while a bunch of rappers provide the rap.

We’re talking about artists like Mos Def, Jim Jones, Q-Tip, Ludacris, Raekwon, RZA, Billy Danze of M.O.P., Pharoahe Monch, Ol’ Dirty Bastard, and more. Together they will release an album called Blak Roc this Thanksgiving.

Here is the official trailer and the first track, “Hoochie Coo,” featuring Jim Jones and Mos Def.

Jim Jones sued by Hell Rell

Heat — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 01:42:12 +0000

The beef between former Dipset members Hell Rell and Jim Jones has landed in court in a new lawsuit against Jim Jones and a number of record labels.

Hell Rell, born Durell Mohammed, was a member of Cam’ron’s Diplomats crew, which at one point featured Cam, Jim Jones, Juelz Santana, Hell Rell, Max B, JR Writer and 40 Cal.

The lawsuit, which was filed in New York County Court, claims that Jim Jones, Koch, Tycoon Entertainment, Babygrande Records and E1 cheated him out of royalties.

Hell Rell signed with Koch/E1 in 2007 and released one album for the label, Hell Up in Harlem.

That album was followed with 2008’s Black Mask, Black Gloves which was released via the mom & pop label, Babygrande Records.

Hell Rell recently expressed his grievances with his former group members, claiming that Jim Jones and Juelz Santana ruined The Diplomats.

Santana has defended himself and Jones against any wrong doing, claiming Hell Rell needed a Diplomat reunion for financial reasons.

Hell Rell recently inked a deal with Money Maker Entertainment/EMI to release his third official album, Live From Hell.

Live From Hell is due in stores October 6.

Jay-Z says Nas and Eminem are his only competition

Heat — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 19:14:49 +0000

Although The Game seems to be constantly dissing him, Jay-Z has yet to respond. In a new interview, he explained why he hasn’t fired back at people like Game and Jim Jones, saying he doesn’t consider them real competition. Besides explaining why Game and Jimmy aren’t competitive, Jigga explains that artists like Nas and Eminem are his only real competition.

“Not really that competitive, because the competition isn’t based on real competition,” Jay says in the October issue of XXL Magazine. “I mean, Game, I’m his fuckin’ idol. If you ask him and he’s being truthfully honest with you it’s just based off his insecurities and, for the most part, pretension. That type of competition doesn’t do anything for me. It’s almost like someone trying to set you up, and everyone knows they’re to set you up, and everybody. It’s just dumb. It’s not in the spirit of competition, because he’s not competition for me. He’s not. Not then, not ever — he’d have to improve considerably. Competition for me competition is Nas, Eminem. Like Jim Jones?

That’s ridiculous to me. So how do I respond to that? I can’t win. If I win, then they’ll be like, ‘See. Now chill. You’re a fuckin’ bully.’ And if it manages to throw a haymaker from the West Coast, then it’s like ‘Oooooh.’ It’s not even fun. Like, before I did it, because I would diss anybody. Now who has time to do this shit everyday? But before, when I was running after the little fat nigga from Ma$e’s camp, I was doing anybody.

Anybody said anything. If I thought you said something. When I was running in the streets, I wanted all that type of activity. Nobody wanted nothing. Now everybody’s a tough guy.”

Max B convicted of felony murder, kidnapping, robbery and conspiracy

Caesar — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 01:18:42 +0000

Max B and his brother have been found guilty on 9 out of 11 charges, including felony murder, kidnapping, robbery and conspiracy.

The rapper has been free after Jim Jones previously paid his bail, before Max had his falling out with Dipset.

He was detained immediately after the trial and will be sentenced July 30, he’s facing 20 years. An appeal is already in the works.

The charges stem from a 2006 robbery that left a man dead in the Holiday Inn in Fort Lee, New Jersey.

Here is an official statement from his lawyer:

“Max B would like to first thank all his family, friends and fans that have supported him throughout this trial. Please don’t give up on him at this point. Although the jury has spoken and Max has been convicted of felony murder, kidnapping, robbery and conspiracy a swift and successful appeal shall follow. It is inconceivable that a jury would convict Max under the facts presented by the State. Even Gina Conway the State’s own witness testified that Max knew nothing of a robbery. Ms. Conway, a jilted lover and proven liar, said so at the trial itself. Max said after the verdict was read that he is confident that justice will eventually be served and he will be free. Max intends to continue putting out music for his fans while the appeal process grinds along. Although shocked by the verdict, Max remained grateful.”

Jim Jones dissed Jay-Z on Twitter

Jim Jones is addicted to Twitter, but it’s all cool. Here is what he had to say about Jay-Z after both performed at Summer Jam.

“Above all Summer Jam was dope,” Jones wrote via Twitter unmodified. “And I got to see Jay-Z who refused to get out of his van when he saw my pretty face. We was mobbin’, he’s still a sucka…A old sucka. lol. We back and if he killed autotune then we must be Easter the resurrection. lol Shouts to Soulja Boy Tell Em, he ripped…I saw Jay-Z and Tata they didn’t say nothin but sit they a** down when they saw the Spartan 300’s lol…I’m glad to see I got everyone on Twitter’s attention. I love Twitter, it’s trouble maker, good morning everyone.”

Kill The Record Labels (Full DVD)

Caesar — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 07:51:59 +0000

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.

There’s a rumor floating around that Cam’ron and Jim Jones have settled their differences and will come out on stage along with Juelz Santana at this Sunday’s Hot 97 Summer Jam.
