Presenting Hip Hop's newest BFF's Lauren London and Cassie



Lauren London and Cassie have been pictured doing a lot of promos for Sean John and hitting the party scene hard together! The two recently made an appearance at MTV's Sucker Free studio's on Tues! I must say these two are a good look both beautiful and at least Lauren is talented!

This is What a Hot Ghetto Mess looks like:



Hurricane Chris made an apperance at TRL today looking HAM as hell. For those of you that don't quite know HAM stand for Hot Ass Mess and as you can see Hurricane Chris defined it quite well! Didn't beads and braids go out in the early 90's?

The Diva of All Divas Jill Scott disses her Fans!


At a free concert last night at the Crystal Ballroom in Houston Jill Scott got really buck with 5 of her fans asking them to be escorted out by security! Why you ask? Because they were taking too many pictures with their camera phones! Jill was quoted saying "You all have 5...4...3...2...1.. security please escort these 5 right here out of the building!

After they were escorted out she told the audience they had to understand that taking pictures was fu*^ing with her fruit of labor! A concert goer also said that Jill got an attitude with her band about not being authorized to play a certain song about Crown Royal which she wound up performing anyway!

The source says she looked at her band and said "oh no we are doing this" Seeing as the concert is sponsored by Bailey's it is pretty WACK for her to perform a song about Crown Royal! Jill what's up with all the divatude aren't you supposed to be down to earth and what not? We here at the dramafiles are confused! Clarification puhlease!

Artist Spotlight: Joe Billz


NYC has honed some of the most prominent MC's in hip hop! But just like in life times and people change! Giving way to a host of emerging new MCs ready to take the industry by storm and new artist Joe Billz is ready to do just that. While Billz has endured alot on the streets of Buffalo he says it was his move to Atlanta that really gave him a new perspective.
“Atlanta is like walking in chocolate,” Billz says. “In Buffalo you don’t see that many successful people. In Atlanta you do. That was inspiring to me. I was like, ‘if they can do it, I can do it.’

Along with his move to ATL Billz also credits much of his success to to his mom, who instilled a writing discipline in young Joe that serves him well today.
“My dad was never there so my mom had to play both roles.” Billz recalls. “She was very strict and very sweet. It was always education first. Through grade school up to high school, every day after school she would make me write a short story, or a dissertation. I would write it and then she would critique it.”

With a CD creating much buzz in the south Joe says it's his lyrics that speak volumes. As an up and coming artist Joe Billz hopes to have longevity in the industry by creating classic music that will remain relevant even 30 years later! And with the way he's moving now we are sure he'll have no problems doing just that!

Check out a sampler of Joe Billz right about.... Now

Xscape escaped the music biz because JD was sleeping with someone in the group!


Tamika formerly of the group Xscape made a special apperance on the popular Hot 97 Miss Jones in the morning show and she went off on JD saying his book gave a false explanation on why the group broke up. Tamika told Miss Jones the real reason the group broke up was that Kandi began sleeping with Jermaine Dupri. And Tamika believes that Jermaine and Kandi's romance is what devastated the group.

The group felt that since JD and Kandi were getting it on she had way more solo spots than everyone else in the group! It is kind of odd that Kandi got all the solo's I mean she can sing but so could all those girls! I will say this she did have the most marketable look but sleeping with the Lollipop kid (JD) was a low move for her! Man the price of fame.....
