Blige, Jadakiss, Nate Dogg, Missy Elliott, Eve, Wyclef and Fabolus, all who are encouraging the public to vote. AllHipHop.com Breeding Ground Alum Blyss, is featured in this month’s issue of XXL magazine. The Washington D.C. representative was excited to be spotlighted in the issue. "I’m getting so much love from this XXL s**t," he told AllHipHop.com. "A D.C. emcee has never been in there before so I’m paving new ground not just for me bout for all of D.C." The special issue includes a round table discussion with Kanye West, Talib Kweli, Common, dead prez and comic Dave Chapelle. And due to the political nature of the magazine, Blyss, a graduate of Morehouse college, offered his own words of advice. "I want ni***s to know that this rap s**t aint all about rhyming, because a lot of business goes into this s**t too. So if you making songs without handling your business, you’re gonna lose in this race, because its dudes out there who can spit and be a businessman like me." Canibus and basketball star Shaquille O’Neal have collaborated on a new mixtape song with DJ Kay Slay. The song is featured on the new Kay Slay mixtape and is expected to premier tonight on his Hot 97 “Drama Hour” show. Spit over the Biggie “Victory” beat, ‘Bis says, “Can-I-Bus verbally burst you/ raw s### forklift the high hats to tha side to let my verse through/ im so high in the clouds, I got to aim down/ lyrically i’m 6 foot 1 from the waist down/ lay down, or taste rounds from the straight pound/ kiss the ground as you lay face down/ ghetto life is a death sentence/ born in the hood, end up dead, slumped over a car engine.” Rap mistress Jean Grae is about to drop her Babygrande debut with This Week. She said with the album, she hoped to inspire creatively that is absent from commercial Hip-Hop. “We all keep talking about change but not supporting it,” she told AllHipHop.com. “Ride with me on this one. I won’t let y’all down. I give it a 10.” This Week is slated to hit stores on September 21. On September 14, Spike TV and Ol’ Dirty Bastard will premiere a new reality series called “Stuck To ODB,” where a normal individual must stay within 10 feet of the rapper for five full days.
