Fabolous Turns Into Mr. Big Spender, Drops $45K To Pop Bottles
News: Fabolous Turns Into Mr. Big Spender, Drops $45K To Pop Bottles

New York rapper Fabolous sure knows how to party with reports claiming Loso dropped nearly $50,000 on champagne over the weekend during a birthday celebration.
According to reports, F-a-b-o became mister big spender last Saturday (February 18) in Atlanta.
Rapper Fabolous got a record number of people wasted last weekend in Atlanta — dropping $45,000 on 120 BOTTLES of champagne at a nightclub … and it was all a favor for his good friend. Sources tell TMZ, Fab bought the bottles of Rosé Moët as a present for his buddy — who was celebrating his birthday at Club Compound in Atlanta last Saturday. The bottles were delivered in a golden bath-shaped litter by club personnel — you know, that wheelless carriage thing royalty travels in … usually carried on the shoulders of their half-naked royal subjects. According to sources, Fab was hosting the event — and decided to show everyone in the club a good time by comping the endless flow of booze. (TMZ)
Outside of partying, Fab has reportedly gone back to his ex-girlfriend/fashion designer Emily B.
“We are dating still. You know when I first came on I said, “Oh, he doesn’t claim me.” He’s doing all the claiming in the world now,” Emily revealed. “Before he was like the star and now we go out and people are like “Oh, hey Fab — HEY EMILY!! Yeah, we talked about [his past fling with 'Love Hip Hop' cast member Kimbella]. He said that they never dated. He did say that they had a form of sex. He said that they didn’t have sexual intercourse but that doesn’t excuse the behavior. People always get mad at me thinking that I blamed her but no, not at all, I blame him.” (“Love Hip Hop” Reunion)
Prior to their reunion, Emily said her next love interest would likely not be someone from the music industry.
“What love life? It’s non-existent. I’m in that weird in between stage where I’m not where I was, but I’m also not ready to date anyone else. [Date another rapper?] Absolutely not. I would prefer not to date anyone else in the music industry. I’d like to date someone with a normal life, like a school teacher. In fact there’s a teacher at my daughters school that I have a little crush on…I’m just kidding. Hmmm, I guess just to take a break. We just wrapped shooting and I have a clothing line coming in the fall of 2012 and I’ve been doing a lot of styling. So I guess my holiday wish is just have some quiet time with my kids.” (Necole Bitchie)
Fab is also currently gearing up to drop the long-awaited Loso’s Way 2 album.
Fabolous recently told VIBE, Loso’s Way 2, could be ready by as early as this spring/early summer. In an exclusive interview in New York City, Loso reveleaed he’s been laying the groundwork for the project. “Loso’s Way 2 is slated for 2012 release and looking spring/early summer. This mixtape is going to coast us into that and bring some energy to this time as well,” Fab told VIBE. “I’m very premature with the album as of yet, as of now, just grabbing up the beats and putting some ideas down.” Currently, the Brooklyn rapper is looking for the right production to fit his sequel. “I went in with Hit-Boy. I went in with No I.D. I went in with Pharrell. I went in with a lot of guys that didn’t have to have that big name either. It’s just about the energy. I love the new young guys’ energy.” (VIBE)

Red Cafe Names NY Knicks’ Biggest Weakness, "They Break My Heart All The Time"
News: Red Cafe Names NY Knicks’ Biggest Weakness, “They Break My Heart All The Time”
Tuesday, Feb 21, 2012 9:44AM
Bad Boy Records’ Red Cafe recently gave his thoughts on the sizzling hot New York Knicks, pre-Jeremy Lin era, and said the team needed more toughness in order to excel.
Recalling the past days when Knicks stars like Latrell Sprewell and Patrick Ewing took the floor, Cafe said the New York hometeam is in dire need of aggressive leadership.
“I’m a hometown guy. I’m a neighborhood guy. There were a lot of great years I saw the Knicks do some explosive things. John Starks, Ewing, Sprewell. I liked it. We were tough guys. It was nice to see them match up with guys who had more talent. I just love the Knicks. They break my heart all the time,” Cafe said in an interview. “You gotta win the game before you get on the court. You have to take their heart. I think [Carmelo Anthony] can do it. [Amar'e] Stoudemire can do it. They just have to make the decision. We’re in New York City. Coming into that Garden, that’s a big deal. Other guys go on that stage and they know they gotta show up. We need [expletive] Anthony Mason and Charles Oakley right now. Those guys came in the game and took hearts, asap.” (The Post Game)
As of late, the Knicks’ overnight star Jeremy Lin has captured the attention of hip-hop artists like Lil Wayne, who is not buying into the hype.
“Jeremy Lin has been added to Rising Stars Challenge game for All-Star Weekend after recent Lin craze,” Weezy said, reading from a report. “Now, everyone got the Lin fever and everybody doing the Lin — I don’t, I’m trying to figure out what I call him. Well, he beat my Lakers. So ever since that game, I hate him. So I call him Lin Laden. Yeah, that’s what I call him. Lin Laden. Trend that. That’s what y’all need to start calling him. Lin Laden. But for tonight, Lin Laden was defeated by the Hornets. So seems like Lin couldn’t beat New Or-Lins. Ha! Score for me.” (Weezy’s Sports Center)
Former Ruff Ryders rapper Jin recently penned a tribute record in Lin’s honor.
“I saw this interview about a year ago. Maybe it’s the Asian American connection combined with the fact that at the time I was taking steps on my own spiritual path as well, but I was just super inspired. Later on, as Jeremy landed a spot on the Warriors, I had the notion to work on a song inspired by him. Interesting how God works.. The Warriors track never got released cause I couldn’t get it to a point where I was comfortable with the overall direction of the song.. and next thing you know J gets released from the team. As he continues on his path to Houston and then ultimately the Knicks, I think it’s safe to say that countless amount of us are continuously inspired and uplifted by what God is doing in this brothers life.. His story and I’m sure many of ours can attest that like the song says, “HE always come thru in the nick of time.”" (Channel APA)
Despite an impressive win against the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday, the Knicks fell short to its local rivals, New Jersey Nets, last night.
New York Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony didn’t take the air out of the Jeremy Lin Show. Guard Deron Williams and the New Jersey Nets did on the final leg of a back-to-back-to-back set, beating the Knicks 100-92 on Monday at Madison Square Garden. Williams, perhaps still smarting from the Nets-Knicks game Feb. 4 in which Lin began his improbable run with 25 points and a victory, reminded the NBA there’s another high-profile point guard in the New York metropolitan area.

Kanye West Denies Late Lunch Delivery, Driver Termination Reports
News: Kanye West Denies Late Lunch Delivery, Driver Termination Reports
Tuesday, Feb 21, 2012 10:06AM
Within 24 hours, Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West has gone from the ultimate bad guy to typical Ye with reports claiming he fired his personal driver for delivering a late lunch now getting debunked.
Despite the initial reports, Ye’s team have come forward to kill the negative buzz.
It sounded like nonsense to us, but you never know. Hollywood people sometimes let their egos get the better of them! Yesterday, we reported that Kanye West allegedly fired his London driver for being two hours late with his lunch from Selfridges. Was he blinded by hunger? Is he really that full of himself? The answer, according to Ye’s people, who have contacted us EXCLUSIVELY, is none of the above. According to Kanye’s camp, the story is a “complete fabrication” and all of “Mr. West’s drivers are happily employed.” Glad to hear it! And maybe in the future, he should just order in. Does London adhere to the “delivered in 30 minutes or free” rule?! LOL! (Perez Hilton)
Details of the alleged cause of termination landed online over the weekend.
Sir Kanye wanted a Selfridges Food Hall lunch while staying in London recently, sending his sent his driver to collect it. All ended in tears, though, according to a ‘source’, when the singer had to wait for his feed until mid-afternoon. “Kanye decided he wanted a Selfridges lunch and sent the driver out,” the unnamed source said, adding: “Obviously, he’s never heard of the Tube and London suffers from horrendous traffic. The driver left at 1pm and didn’t make it back until 3pm, when the head of security told him: ‘I’m sorry but I’m going to have to let you go. You took too long and Kanye got p—ed off. He was really hungry’.” (Celebrity Fix)
No stranger to gossip and negative press, the rapper was recently cited for cheating on ex-girlfriend/model Amber Rose with reality star Kim Kardashian.
“Kim is one of the main reasons why me and Kanye are not together,” Amber exclusively told Star. “She’s a homewrecker!” According to Amber, she was dating Kanye when he and Kim first hooked up — and Kim was dating NFL star Reggie Bush! “They were both cheating,” Amber, 28, said. “They were both cheating on me and Reggie with each other.” Amber says it was Kim, 31, who instigated the whole affair by calling, texting and sending racy photos of herself to Kanye. “She was sending pictures, and I was like, ‘Kim, just stop. Don’t be that person,’” but apparently Kim didn’t care enough to respond when Amber emailed her for an explanation. “I thought at least she’d be woman enough to respond to me. She never responded.” Amber slammed Kim for her cheating ways. “It’s very important that us women stick together and we don’t f**k each other over like that.” (Radar Online)
Despite Rose’s remarks, Kim’s sister Khloe recently came to her and Ye’s defense.
“Kanye and Kim are friends. I love Kanye. Kanye is friends with Lamar [Odom] and myself. Kanye has been friends with Kim for a few years now. They at one point a few years ago [after dating Reggie Bush], they were talking and trying to go on a date here and there but it just didn’t work out. … I don’t know Amber. A lot of people like to use my sister’s name for their own benefit. I don’t know but everything from even him being around my mom, him being around Lamar or even his kids, it’s never been on that level. I do know that they’re friends and I do think they might have that feeling for each other, I just don’t think its worked timing wise.” (“Sway in the Morning”)
