Drake, Lil Wayne and Eminem performed one of the hottest songs of the year at the 2010 Grammy’s. Kanye West was nowhere to be found when the trio performed “I Want This Forever” off of the Lebron James “More Than A Game” Soundtrack.

Lil Wayne opened the show performing his latest hit featuring Eminem called “Drop the World,” But it was hard to hear anything thanks to the bleeping of the FCC.

GQ magazine is outdated and ignorant. Every year they create their own special awards, classifying various “Men of the Year” in odd categories. This year they decided to put Drake, Wale and Kid Cudi into the category of “Gangsta Killers of the Year.”

For whatever reason, it doesn’t make any sense to put these three rappers in this category. None of their music is considered “Gangsta Rap” and GQ falsely assumes that every rapper alive is a “gangsta” or “killer.” It’d be interesting to see what those three rapper thought about the category they placed into.

Young Jeezy showed love to his Atlanta homebase by going door to door dropping off Christmas presents. Teaming up with “Toyz N The Hood” Jeezy’s “Street Dreamz” foundation has been doing this for a couple of years now.

Atlanta Rapper T.I. was released early from prison, after serving 7 months of his original 366-day prison sentence. In 2007, T.I. real name Clifford Harris was arrested by federal agents after they raided a Walgreen’s parking lot where T.I. was involved in a “heavy arms deal.”

Facing 10 years in jail and a $250,000 fine for each charge, T.I.’s lawyers were able to reach a plea deal that would have the rapper under house arrest and serve a year and a day in prison. Although it is unconfirmed why T.I. was released early, he will still serve 2-3 months in a halfway house in Atlanta. Time seemed to have flown while T.I. was locked up. Guess he was right:

“They say the time just flew in the streets. Hard to believe from in there but you’ll see soon as you on the streets.”

Rapper Beanie Sigel sustained minor injuries Saturday evening after being side swiped by a tractor trailer in the crazy Baltimore snow storm. The ex-Roc-Fella rapper is doing just fine and actually performed the next day in Virgina.

Some reports say the injuries were serious, but don’t believe the hype.

The most popular online retailer in the world Amazon.com might just be responsible for leaking Lil Wayne’s Rebirth album. According to RapRadar the Seattle-based company mailed out copies of Lil Wayne’s rock album “Rebirth two months ahead of schedule. It will be interesting to see if the RIAA goes after them on this one.

With his highly anticipated album “Thank Me Later” looking to drop in 2010, we can expect a lot more buzz for this 23 year-old rapper/actor from Canada.

His mixtapes and appearances continue to kill the charts and no lie, I’m still bumpin’ “So Far Gone.”
