What’s beef: Johnny Kash disses Ja Rule

What’s beef??? Who really knows but Ja Rule is caught up in more of it. Most probably remember Johnny Kash as the slick spitting rapper that eased his way through competition as he won 106 & Park’s Freestyle Friday. But he has also worked with N.E.R.D. and Murder Inc. and Kash has a problem with Ja, the artist that put Murder Inc. on the map. Apparently the beef is over the Certified Gwap Boyz, the group and name that Johnny Kash states he started.

here’s the song Kash placed on YouTube:

Drake Rocks NYC

“Buzz so big, I could probably sell a blank disc.” If you don’t know who he his by now, then you might be living under a rock. On Tuesday night, Drake brought the house down at S.O.B.’s in New York City for the Hot 97’s “Who’s Next” concert series. But by all the sold out concerts he’s had already, Drake isn’t who’s next, he’s already here! Drizzy’s fan base is pretty crazy, it was more than just a bunch of teenage girls hoping to catch a glimpse of the Degrassi TV star turned rapper/singer. In the audience were some of the entertainment industry’s elite: Kanye West, MC Lyte, BET’s Stephen Hill and Warner Music Group COO, Julie Greenwald just to name a few. The stage was lit, the venue was packed and Drake definitely put it down. From the smooth sounds of his R&B track “Brand New” to the trancelike flow of “Uptown” (which he performed with Bun B), fans were definitely musically satiated.
