Is it out yet?"After Kid Ink posted a photo to his Instagram and Twitter accounts showcasing him and Tyga on the set of his "Main Chick" video, spectators assumed that he was shooting the visuals for his new single without Chris Brown. But the Cali newcomer tells froggy fans to settle on their lily pads because they don't know what's he has floating in the waters. #BreezyJustMightPopOut(Photo: Paul Warner/Getty Images)

Just Blaze, @JustBlaze - Tweet: "Oh. And I have backups of just about all of those files Chauncey tried to extort for. Dummy"Just blazes music engineer Chauncey Mahan, after the former Roc-A-Fella associate tried to extort Jay Z for payment using old masters that were thought to have disappeared. Although the LAPD already shut ol' Chauncey down with a nice pair of cuffs, the well-known producer lets Mr. Mahan know he wasn't the only one in possession of those not-so-lost files. #PlayedHimself (Photo: Brian Killian/WireImage)

Not only was he the first artist to release a 24-hour music video, but on Thursday (April, 24), he dropped the first-ever "social book" where fans are required to correctly fill in missing words to help him pen his new novel. Once Inspiration is complete and it hits shelves, all proceeds will go to his From One Hand to Another non-profit for underprivileged kids. #ThatsABigBrainUnderThoseHugeHats (Photo: Mark Metcalfe/Getty Images)

Lil B, @LILBTHEBASEDGOD - Tweet: "I LOVE YOU DMX @DMX I LOVE YOU FOR LIFE - Lil B"A few years ago, DMX called Lil B a "lil' b---h" for titling his fifth studio album I'm Gay. While this tweet may serve as further proof for some that the Pack rapper has gone "that way" (as X famously quoted), this is B's attempt to prove that there are no hard feelings and no love was lost. #CantStopHimFromBeingGay #AsInHappy(Photo: Lil B via Instagram)
