[As Lil Kim's 23-city tour comes to an end, fans are flocking to see the Return of the Queen tour. If you haven't seen the show, Saigon's here to give you five reasons you need to get tickets to her Bronx performance.]
1. Lil Cease
I’m trying to pitch [Lil Cease] a record, I don’t know if he’s gonna get on it, but me and Lil Cease had little issues when I first came outta jail and we didn’t get along. Now we get along. Sway from MTV actually squashed the beef between us–we had beef that nobody knew about…it would be dope if Lil Cease would come out and do this record, and then him and Kim just really rock.
2. Junior M.A.F.I.A.
It would be dope for this to turn into a big Junior M.A.F.I.A. reunion. I’m a wishful thinker! It would be dope for Big–like he gave both ya’ll life. If ya’ll still have problems in 2012 that’s kinda disrespectful. He gave ya’ll an opportunity to touch the world. Respect him enough to love each other.
3. The Essence Of Hip-Hop
People should come because I’m a great performer! Ghostface is on the bill, I’m on the bill, Kim‘s on the bill, that’s [the] pure essence of a lot of elements of hip-hop. That’s Wu Tang, that’s Bad Boy in its prime, so you know…
4. Honor
I’m proud to open up for two people that influenced my life [and] so many Black, young lives. Lil Kim, hate her or love her, she’s a legend in the Black community–good or bad.
5. The Bronx
It’s the Bronx, it’s the home of hip-hop…if you’ve never experienced hip-hop in the Bronx where it started, it’s like saying you’re a Muslim and you never went to Mecca. It’s the birthplace. You gotta make your way to the Bronx, especially for Lil Kim.
You Decide. Will you be one of the few to witness history in the Bronx this Friday night?

50 Cent Reveals Hospitalization, "I Don’t Want To Go Into Surgery"
News: 50 Cent Reveals Hospitalization, “I Don’t Want To Go Into Surgery”
Wednesday, May 16, 2012 9:55PM

Rap star 50 Cent is hoping to calm the nerves of G-Unit fans worldwide after announcing he is currently hospitalized but providing a flurry of Twitter updates.
Fif took to his Twitter account to not only provide updates but show proof of his hospitalization.
“I’m in the hospital but my gangsta grillz LOST TAPE is done so it will be out on time. http://lockerz.com/s/209485818,” he tweeted Wednesday (May 16).
“I don’t want to go into surgery. @FloydMayweather call my phone why your phone off http://lockerz.com/s/209486827″
“Do not do a @djdrama gangsta grillz this is all I get. Ain’t this a b*tch. I give 15 tracks you give me this. http://lockerz.com/s/209491970″ (50 Cent’s Twitter)
Back in 2009, Fif teased fans about his medical condition after saying rap nemesis Fat Joe‘s music put him into the hospital.
This afternoon while in his Manhattan offices, employees say that 50 Cent was listening to Fat Joe’s new album, J.O.S.E. 2 when all the sudden, he collapsed! An ambulance was called, and by the time they arrived, 50 Cent regained consciousness and was complaining of blurred vision and a severe migraine. 50 Cent was rushed to Mt. Sinai hospital at 4:26 pm. Doctors say after performing a Cat Scan and EKG there seems to be some damage to his auditory cortex, which is the region of the brain that is responsible for processing sound. (This Is 50)
G-Unit’s Tony Yayo also participated in the stunt.
“On my way to the hospital,” he wrote Monday afternoon. “Keep 50 in ya’ll prayers. Let’s see him thru this. 50 rushed to the hospital here are the details.” (Tony Yayo’s Twitter)
Outside of hospital scares, Fif is currently preparing the release of an upcoming mixtape.
“I’m back on the streets man, it’s goin’ down. Gangsta Grillz, the first Gangsta Grillz, it’s been long overdue,” 50 told Mixtape Daily on Friday while he was sitting in his G-Unit office in midtown Manhattan. On May 22 Fif is teaming with DJ Drama to drop The Lost Tape, a 13-track mixtape filled with murderous material. “I don’t want to put too many joints on a tape where it overwhelms people and I don’t like making Now compilations where I got so many people on it where you ain’t sure you like it,” he said of his formula.

"He’s The Greatest In The World That Ever Rapped On The Microphone"
Underrated: “He’s The Greatest In The World That Ever Rapped On The Microphone”
Thursday, May 17, 2012 12:05AM

[Each week, SOHH asks two entertainment personalities to name who they feel is the most underrated emcee in hip-hop. After Curtiss King gave Andre 3000 the title earlier this week, Harlem rapper A-Mafia crowns the late Big L SOHH Underrated.]

SOHH Underrated? You know who I’m going to say, man. Big L. Automatically.
He’s the greatest in the world that ever rapped on the microphone. Come on, man. Even one of the top lyricists in the world, Eminem, had to shout out Big L on one of his singles. That right there just goes to show you why he’s the greatest. Big L is SOHH Underrated. Automatic.
It was everything about him. Everything. It’s like the microphone and Big L were a match made in heaven. That’s just what he did. I don’t know how else to explain it. He lived in that microphone, man.
Every rhyme that he spit was crazy. He said things that I never heard nobody say and I still haven’t heard anybody put words together like that.
A-Mafia is a rapper from Harlem, New York. He has started rapping at the age of 15 while he was incarcerated. Mafia is known for his close ties with the Diplomats, Dipset’s AR Duke Da God and other key New York artists.
