Eminem & Jay-Z

Thursday night marked the beginning of the four-date Home And Home tour featuring Eminem and Jay-Z performing in their respective hometowns of Detroit and New York.

Eminem’s Comerica Park was up first, with the rapper turning in “an exhaustive, guest-filled 100-minute performance that spanned his entire recording career with full or partial performances of 33 songs.

Some 42,000 fans screamed as Slim Shady took the stage yelling, “Goddamn it, Detroit, I’m back, man. Did you miss me, or what?”

B.o.B., who opened the evening with his own half-hour set, recreated “Airplanes Pt. II,” though Eminem band singer Liz Rodrigues subbed for Paramore’s Hayley Williams – as she also did for Rihanna on “Love the Way You Lie” and Dido on “Stan.”

Drake showed up for a version of his hit, “Forever,” proclaiming it an “honor” to perform with “the legend that is Eminem.” 50 Cent joined Eminem for “Patiently Waiting,” then gave the star a break while he performed “I Get Money” and “In Da Club” with G-Unit cohort Lloyd Banks.

Dr. Dre came on stage for “Still Dre” and “Nuthin’ But a ‘G’ Thang,” with Eminem taking up Snoop Dogg’s parts. When Eminem led the crowd in chanting for Dre’s long-awaited “Detox” album, the producer – who sported a Proof T-shirt – promised, “I’m comin’!”

Jay-Z opened the show 30 minutes earlier, pausing for a moment after taking the stage and telling the show’s directors to turn up the house lights so he could soak up the moment.

“This is hip-hop music,” he said, “and this is how far we’ve come.”

His two shows at Yankee Stadium are scheduled for Sept. 13 and 14.

According to USA Today:

Jay-z began his set to a blast of lights and squalling rock, alone at center stage to rap the intro from album “The Dynasty.” From there it was a fast-paced and at times poignant set of hits and medleys that led to a closing climax of “Empire State of Mind” and “Numb.”

Backed by a tight live band, Jay welcomed guests Young Jeezy and Memphis Bleek and paid tribute to fallen stars, including Detroit’s Proof and Aaliyah.

Drake

Canadian rapper, Drake's album 'Thank Me Later' has sold over 1 million copies since its release, which stands at no.18 on the Billboard Top 200.

Drake is the only rapper to sell more than 1 million this year after Eminem released “Recovery” which has already hit double platinum.

“Thank you to everyone who allowed us to go platinum on a debut album! WOW,” Drake tweeted back on July 22, when he had only sold 833,100 units.

Dirty Money, has finally is releasing their official third single, “Loving You No More,” featuring Drake.

Last Train To Paris will hit stores October 14th.

Here's a new one from Drake featuring Lil Wayne for "Miss Me".  The video was directed by Anthony Mandler-and is the third single from his debut No. 1 album Thank Me Later.

Lil Wayne

Lil Wayne may be getting off with only 8 months of his year-long prison sentence. According to MTV news, the rapper may be getting out by Nov. 4.

Despite him being locked away, it’s as if he never left. With Drake debuting at the top of Billboard charts with “Thank Me Later,” a track Wayne served as executive producer.

Drake recently visited him in prison and told reporters about his experience.

“He kept looking to the window,” Drake said. “He’d look up at the window almost like he’s looking right through it. It’s frosted, so you can’t see out. I was like, ‘Why does he keep staring through the window? There’s nothing out there.’ To him, there’s a whole world moving out there that he hasn’t seen for so long.”

But that hasn’t been his only visitor. Diddy and Fat Joe took a trip to visit.

“He’s doing fairly well,” Joe told MTV News. “Way better than I thought he would be doing. He was telling me some crazy funny story about him and this older guy. They are always going back and forth with each other, arguing. To hear him say it, it’s like Archie Bunker [with this guy].”

That’s not all. Wayne will be hitting music stores and iTunes with a new album before the end of the year is out. His peers are expecting him to be hard at work once he returns, even doing a lil’ welcome back concert.

Taraji Henson

The Word is out that Oscar nominee Taraji Henson spent her July 4th in Toronto with none other than Drake!!! The pair was spotted coupled up shopping for several hours. She’s at least fifteen years older than him, but clearly he has a thing for her.

Drake & His Mom

Drake recently canceled his European tour as his mother prepares to go into surgery. Drake has decided it would be better to stay in the states and support her.

Drake issued a statement explaining why he made the decision to skip the overseas dates in order to support his mother.

"Despite my best hopes, it is apparent that my mother will need surgery earlier than anticipated," the statement read. "In light of this news, I have made the difficult decision to cancel my European tour in order to support her during her recovery, just as she supported me through the years.

I cannot thank my European fans enough and look forward to performing abroad soon. I ask everyone to please respect my family's privacy during this time."

During his recent MTV documentary special, Drake admitted that his mother was ill and was battling a sickness, however, he did not reveal what she was suffering from and has only asked for us to keep her in our prayers via twitter.

"Back at my moms house ... please include her in your prayers tonight as tmrw she faces a true challenge."

Drake and Chris Brown

Extra scooped some big news about Drake and Chris Brown. While reporters caught up with Drake on his way to Toronto, he disclosed that he’s making some big plans, including working in the studio with Chris.

“Yeah, I’ve been working all night,” Drake told Extra. “I’ve just been in the studio. I was actually in the studio with Chris Brown for a little bit. Then I was studio hopping, seeing where I can lend my hand since I’ve done mine.”

Lil Kim

Lil Kim has beef with Drake, Nicki Minaj and Diddy... Lil Kim is continuing to take shots at two of Young Money's biggest stars along with her longtime friend and Bad Boy affiliate.

The Queen Bee stopped by Ed Lover's Power 105 Morning Show to take more shots at Drake, Nicki Mianj and Diddy who have all been at the center of her most recent disses.

As previously reported Kim called Drake out for coming to Nicki's defense when the Queen Bee and Ray J dissed her, deeming him a “straight pu**y” and added that subliminal disses by Minaj are the cause for her beef with the rapper.  The battle now continues as she talks about Drake again and tells Lover that Drizzy should've addressed Ray-J for dissing Nicki and calls him “pink” for choosing to direct a diss her way instead.  “For Drake to fire back at me, you looking real on the pinker side of life Drake because you were suppose to fire that back at who said it which was a guy!”

Moving on to Young Money's Harajuku Barbie, Kim says that she's “flattered” by Nicki's obvious “copying” but says her subliminal shots are unnecessary especially in an industry where women need to stick together.

“First of all, to be copied is the biggest form of flattery. It's not about her copying me. It's not about that. It's about her copying me and her creating that reign and then busting shots at me. I have a problem with that because as females we are already a minority in this industry so we need to kind of stick together and come out as a team against the fellas…”

When asked about Diddy however the Queen is much less understanding and much more direct saying that she was “disappointed” in him for taking up for Minaj.
According to Kim, he “usually says something intelligent” but jumped to Nicki's defense even after she dropped the line “Did I kill the queen?” on Dirty Money's “Hello, Good Morning” remix.

Kim goes on to add:

Quite frankly, I gotta say I was very disappointed in him because usually he says something very intelligent and usually I can take something from him as my big brother. But I must say that in this specific statement that he made I was very disappointed…because number one he said I was mad. He set up there and said “she never tried to copy you, she never said anything bad against you”. Look at the new video! she talking about “did i kill the queen”. You wanna be subliminal? This is hip hop! If I was mad New York, we would have had the first earthquake you've ever seen!”

In between talking about her issues with the members of the rap community, Kim also spoke on her possible signing to Roc Nation.
As previously reported she confirmed her new affiliation with the Roc on a video of her announcing, “It's the Roc baby” and throwing up the dynasty sign.
When asked by the morning show host about her affiliation with Jay-Z's record label she played coy to the question and said,
“I love Jay. For me to work with him, for that to happen I think it would be incredible. It would be very historic.
