Earlier tonight Jahlil Tucker aka Jahil Beats, signed to record label Roc Nation. Jahlil is infamous for Chris Brown/Tyga "Holla At Me" and recent radio hit "I'm A Boss" by Meek Mill (longtime friends). Meek recently signed with MayBach Music Group and I thought for sure Jahlil would follow, he is not a follower, he is a leader. This Jahlil is a big part of all of Meek Mill's early success. Them two as a duo is unstoppable. It's time to do their solo projects. UPDATE: apparently the two have drama and are no longer friends. READ HERE #jetlifebeats to get the story. This is the beginning of something great for the young super producer. Having Hova as a boss can't be all that bad. For one, budget and talent will never be a problem. Another plus is, wait until we hear Jay Z go in on a JahlilBeats BEAT. BEEAAAST. 2012 is going to get interesting. #nextinshow
Last year, R&B unknownFrank Ocean, was fortunate enough to land a record deal with label giant Def Jam Recordings. It was actually through a mutual friend, Tricky Stewart, that Frank was able to be seen and heard. Unfortunately his relationship with the record label was compromised, when Frank took it upon himself to leak his upcoming solo debut Nostalgia,Ultra free to download via his Tumblr back in February. The sudden release of the album was almost too overwhelming to handle. His music was soothing and fresh. A real turn for the better for music in general. In the same week The Weeknd was also discovered and leaked his debut album House of Balloons via Drakes Blog, Octobersveryown.net. Music is in a state of rebuilding right now and Frank Ocean has contributed a great deal so far in such a short time.
Frank Ocean - Novacane
Since he evacuated from New Orleans right beforeKatrinahit in 2005, he has worked with some of music's biggest names. He was quick to make a name for himself with his dream-esque writing style. He has written numerous songs for artists such as Justin Bieber(Bigger) andBeyonce(I Miss You) and has most recently appeared on the worldwide album phenomenon known as Watch The Throne(No Church in the Wild, Made in America) just to name a few.
Frank Ocean - Swim Good
After bridges were burned with Def Jam he found himself fitting comfortably with LA's ownOdd Future.Although the Los Angeles based singer is a proud member of Odd Future, in a recent interview he says each member has separate lives outside of the crew. “That’s family” he explains, “It’s a crew, but it’s not like a boy band where we’re like this cohesive thing that moves and does everything together. We’re like a crew of a bunch of different artists who create their own thing and their own wave.” The best is yet to come for this young talent. Be sure to check outFrank Ocean & Odd Future on tour in the US starting September 28, 2011.

***Check out other Odd Future write-ups on the HOMEPAGE going on all week to help kick off their nationwide tour***
According to a music blog which will remain nameless forlegal reasons, Jay-Z has unofficially dropped J. Cole from Roc Nation. Jay-Z isEXTREMELY unhappy with J Cole, for what is said to be "personalreasons." Actually, the write-up suggests Jay is so UPSET with the youngrapper that he wanted to get PHYSICAL. The insider claims that Jay PURPOSELYmissed J. Cole's private album listening session - cause at the time, if Jay Zsaw him - he would have PUT HANDS ON J COLE!!!
What has given Jay this unsettling hatred toward Cole? Well it's NOT CLEAR. Butwe know that the two rapper "disagreement" happened right around thetime when HUSTLER magazine reported that they had a J COLE and RIHANNASEXTAPE in their possession.
Theywill not OFFICIALLY announce J Cole being dropped until AFTER his debut album ColdWorld is released later this month. But we're told that Cole is gettingvirtually NO BUDGET and NO PROMOTION on his upcoming album. It’s a shame, I sawa lot of potential in the young artist. Don’t worry JC, you’ll find your place.
!!!RUMOR FALSE!!! http://rapradar.com/2011/09/27/j-cole-on-hot-97-angie-martinez/#comment-485268 I just want to add that, although i won't be taking this post down, i do regret writing it. We did not create this website to gossip or to get noticed through rumors. I apoligize. This is a learning experience for me. Check out the Mr. Nice Guy track and look out for COLD WORLD: THE SIDELINE STORY coming SOON.
