Shooting at Beanie Sigel Birthday Party at Solo Nightclub S. Philadelphia



Beanie Sigel makes headlines for the wrong reasons once again, as the rapper's birthday party ended in violence.

The party, which took place last Friday (March 6) at Southern Philadelphia's Club Solo, had almost 600 attendies, according to philly.com.

One person was shot inside the club, and a brawl involving numerous people ensued outside of it, according to police and a city official.

Sigel "was performing on stage at the club," said his attorney, Fortunato Perri Jr. "He was told later that something happened, but he didn't know who was involved," said Perri.

The shooting victim was Tyheem Baker, 24, who was shot in the upper left chest after getting into an argument with two males upon leaving the men's room.

Baker was taken to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and was listed in stable condition. He told police he doesn't know who shot him.

The District Attorney's Office is investigating the shooting. Police say that the surveillance system "mysteriously malfunctioned" inside the club, making identifying the shooter an even more difficult task.

Police are investigating whether those attending the celebration were properly searched by doormen, and whether they were properly carded. Obviously this club has issues with security breaches. Either poor searches at the door, or poor management of all the exits.

While this is not Beenie Sigels fault, and has more to do with the club itself, this still does not shed a good light on his stage show.

Sigel spent three months in federal prison last year for a third violation of his supervised release following a federal weapons conviction.

Ellen DeGeneres Questions Diddy About Rihanna and Chris Brown


Ellen DeGeneres had Diddy on the Ellen Degeneres TV show and asked him some hard questions about him opening up his Mansion retreat to Chris Brown and Rihanna.

"It was a dark time for them and I was there as more of a support," Sean P.Diddy told Ellen on her Tuesday show "I'm not immersed in it. I'm not going to pass judgment on it. I'm going to be there as a friend."

Clearly uncomfortable by the line of questioning – the talk show host raised the issue by asking Diddy to "clear something up" – the music mogul was initially defensive about his reasons for inviting the two to his Star Island home. (Brown was photographed jet skiing near the house, prompting criticism on the Web of his seemingly carefree behavior in light of the serious legal issues pending.)

"It's my house, and I'm allowed to give my house to whoever I want to give my house to," Diddy said on the show. "I don't cast a stone – cast judgment on anybody. So, if friends ask me for a favor, then I'm going to be there for a favor as long as I know the energy of the favor is positive." Plus, Diddy added that he believes it's positive for "two people to sit down and talk about a situation they're in." He also cautions to be wary of jumping to conclusions, saying, "We don't know exactly what's going on. There are two young individuals. We need to pray for them." But, he told DeGeneres, "I don't think it's right for anybody to hit anybody."

Rihanna and Chris Brown Get Back Together After Attack


Rihanna and Chris Brown are back together. The pair have reunited almost three weeks after Brown, 19, allegedly battered the "Disturbia" singer on Feb. 8.


"They're together again. They care for each other," The on-again couple are currently spending time together at one of Sean "Diddy" Combs's homes, on Miami Beach's Star Island. Adds the source: "While Chris is reflective and saddened about what happened, he is really happy to be with the woman he loves."In its latest issue, PEOPLE reports that Brown called Rihanna on her 21st birthday one week ago. "He called to wish her happy birthday," a source told the magazine. "They've reached out to each other. It's been mutual." Brown was booked by LAPD for making criminal threats but the case has not yet been presented to the District Attorney, who will ultimately determine which charges, if any, will be prosecuted.


In our opinion love sometimes hurts, but it shouldn't hurt physically. If Love turns physically violent, you should consider getting out of the relationship. No matter how much your heart hurts when you do so. A lot of these things tend to escalate as time goes on and you don't want to keep ending up in the hospital or in the morgue.

DJ Ty Boogie and Mistarello.com Blend Brothers 2008 Mixtape

DJ Ty Boogie and Mistarello.com Blend Brothers 2008 (Blends 101 Class In Session) Mixtape www.mistarello.com


This is a really good example of a classic Blend mixtape. These two DJs really did a great job mixing and selecting their songs on all the blends. There are a ton of really great classic cuts that they remixed for this blend mixtape and most of the blend beats they chose worked well with the tracks they chose to remix.

We ran through quite a few blend mixtapes before choosing this one to let you al know about. Most of the blend mixtapes we found were simply compilations of remixes and not One hot continual mix. Not only that but many of the other blend mixtapes also had bad song choices and bad beat choices that didn't really blend well together. The whole point of a remix afterall is to make the remix at least as hot if not hotter than the original song. So many of the blend mixtapes were a bit of a disappointment. So when we found this one we were really happy to hear a continual mix of really great blends and mixes.

This mixtape was pretty much a heater from start to finish. Most of the blends were done really well and the overall vibe of the mixtape was excellent. This is a great mixtape for bumping in your ride, especially if you like some oldschool remixes. We'll be looking for more from these two DJs in the future, and we'll keep you posted on other hot mixtapes as well.

Iron Man Mixtape Review 2 by Jay

Review 2 of The Ironman Mixtape CD by DJ Emir



Like its predecessor, The Transformers Mixtape, DJ Emir's new monster hit mixtape, the Iron Man Mixtape is making a huge splash in the mixtape circuit. After going all out on the previous mixtape and recieving several awards including the honor of VIP Nightclub Magazine mixtape of the year, DJ Emir simply had to go all out and try to out do his previous Nine mixtapes.




The monster mix session known as The Iron Man Mixtape is a monumental movement to bring back the true essence of real mixtapes, that is bring back mixtapes that are actually mixed. Real scratches, transforms, mixes, juggles, remixes, blends and dope overall DJ skills, yes folks, that's what real mixtapes are made of. Gun Shots, excessive yelling, lack of creativity and compiling songs just to get them out faster than the other guy... That's what fake mixtapes are made of.

Time and Time again DJ Emir manages to put out some of the best Real mixtapes we've ever heard. He mixes so fast and hard that Emir plays, as KRS One put it in his song the DJ "Only One to Two verses, just keep the party moving" Emir's mixes are hard fast and smooth, the entire mixtape flows from one song to the next with dope transitions and even tighter remixes. How else do you fit 62 tracks on One CD?!

Some of the remixes are so much better than the original songs that they actually became our new favorite songs of the moment. For example, DJ Emir's remix of 50 Cent Get Money was straight fire especially the spots where Emir caught the accapella and cut up the track with his scratch skills. Dude seriously was killing it on that remix! Same with his crazy intro.DJ Emir's Iron Man Mixtape is a 10 as far as DJ skill and overall entertainment go. Our advice to DJ Emir, just keep 'em coming! - Jay of The Great Hip Hop Blog
