New details have emerged surrounding the death of Kanye West's mother, Dr. Donda West.
Dr. Jan Adams, a California-based plastic surgeon who recently spoke to gossip website TMZ, says he did nothing wrong during Dr. West's surgery and that she may have died of other medical causes.
West's autopsy results will be released in six to eight weeks.
According to the TMZ report, Adams says he gave West a tummy tuck and breast reduction after consulting with her over a four month period of time. Adams says that West changed her mind about the procedures on several occasions, according to the article.
Dr. West, 58, was taken to Centinela Freeman Regional Medical Center in Marina Del Ray Saturday night after she stopped breathing. Once at the hospital, workers attempted to "resuscitate West, but were unsuccessful" according to Deborah Ettinger, a vice president at the hospital.
In another development surrounding West's sudden death, a different plastic surgeon, Dr. Andre Aboolian of Beverly Hills, says West approached him several months ago about the surgery. Aboolian also says that two weeks ago, he told West that she needed a medical clearance before he would perform the operation due to a pre-existing medical condition, according to his publicist Jo-Ann Geffen. "He simply said that in order for him to be comfortable, he felt it necessary to have a medical clearance before he'd touch her," said Geffen.
Adams recently told TMZ that Aboolian was "manipulating the truth" but declined to elaborate. While Adams says the surgery was conducted without a hitch, questions about his past have surfaced. TMZ has unearthed a series of reports that the doctor has been the suit of several complaints, including sexual harassment and malpractice.
Another lawsuit—which was settled—claimed that Dr. Adams, a former co-host of The Other Half got a woman pregnant after an operation. Thanks Hiphopdx.com

Mr. Frank Lucas Interviewed By Allhiphop.com
Allhiphhop.com You guys did a real good interview....props on that.
Here are some of the questions you guys asked that I really liked.
AllHipHop.com: That’s a good message to send. I recently spoke to some people and they were asking me if American Gangster would be adopted like Scarface has been embraced by Hip-Hop. I told them no…the stories end differently. Secondly, you have expressed a certain amount of remorse.
Frank Lucas: I have all the remorse in the world. I didn’t do it right. That was a terrible thing I did. Also, you gotta understand. Me and "Scarface" were in two different worlds. He was in the cocaine world and I was in the other world - the real dirty world.
Frank Lucas: You know, when Nicky was out there, I know he did a lot of bad things, they treated him like a dog when he wasn’t out there [jail]. I heard after three months, he couldn’t buy a pack of cigarettes. They took all their money and dogged him.
AllHipHop.com: Are you talking about The Council? [Nicky Barnes organized and strengthened his power base by uniting other powerful drug dealers called The Council.]
Frank Lucas: I didn’t know nothing about no Council when I was out there. I wouldn’t play that. If somebody wants to be a Don or a Gambino, the other guy wants to be Al Capone. The other guy wants to be Frank Nitti. Hey, you turn around [and] you got a mess. There wasn’t no damn Council. I can tell you that right now. That’s not true. Anybody [contradicts] that, they lying.
llHipHop.com: Jay-Z recently recorded an album inspired by the movie. He had a line on his song "No Hook" that was talking about you. I’m sure you heard it.
Frank Lucas: No, I haven’t. I don’t listen to Mr. Jay-Z’s music, but please tell me what it is.
AllHipHop.com: He says, “I’m more Frank Lucas than Ludacris” and Ludacris is a rapper. Then he says, “Frank Lucas is cool, but I ain’t trying to snitch.” Now, I know that you on record have addressed that situation, but…
Frank Lucas: Tell that young man to watch his mouth. Please watch his mouth. Tell that young man to please watch his mouth. Mr. Jay-Z, tell him to please watch his mouth. You saw the movie?
Frank Lucas is a snitch is what I say. I really don't give a shit about what he did.
He is not an American Gangster and correct me if I'm wrong but he snitched on the cops,the Italians,and everybody else to get lesser time. He is no better than Nicky Barnes when he was testifying wearing a black hood on his face. What you think?

So Cam Doesn't Own Dipset. LMAO!!
Man I love whats been going on in the news lately. I ran across today, Good look on this one hhnlive.com Here's the interview.
I'm gonna be honest with you and this is the first time I ever spoke about this in an interview. Me and Cam are the founders of Diplomats" Digga tells HHNLive.com. "Anyone that really knows the history on me and Cam knows this. I own the Diplomat brand and I have paperwork that says so. Not Cam, not Jimmy. They have been using the logo all this time without ever hollering at me...I decided to step away from Cam because dude is selfish."
Digga also touched on the infamous Cam'Ron song "Do It Again" featuring Beyonce. The song was referenced in a diss track by Cam'Ron directed at Jay-Z called "You Gotta Love It." In the song, Cam'Ron brags about having Beyonce in the studio singing about slinging crack in relation to the song's hook which references drug dealing. Digga tells HHNLive.com things didn't exactly go down that way.

I love New York Is As Fake As that Weave In Her Hair.
That show is so staged its ashame. New York can act a little when it comes down to reality tv, but
lets face it she is a slut. Lmao, you I said it and I don't give a shit either. The show was better last
season but when I saw they was going to have that pyschic lady on there and they was doing some
sort of blood oath, that shit took the cake. When shit started falling and the lights blacking out, I started laughing
at how fake that show really is.
Well here is a poll tell me what you guys think.
Here Go The Jay-z Rumors Again!
Okie-Dokey The internet rumor shit has attracted some more flies. Jay-z has been rumored to be running around
town with some stripper chick. This is a statement from MediaTakeOut.com
When the cat's away, the mice will play. It seem like while Beyonce's been off touring in Asia, her fiancée Jay Z has been up to no good. MediaTakeOut.com has EXCLUSIVELY learned that the hip hop superstar has struck up an intimate friendship with a biracial exotic dancer.
The young woman, who dances part time at an upscale New York gentleman's club, has been spotted all over town with Jay Z in recent weeks. And word is that she's officially on Jay Z's payroll.
Well I guess we will just see how far this shits get..... I dont belive this crap to be honest and I really dont give a shit.

50 An Ciara Sitting In A Tree, K-i-s-s-i-n-g
You can't accuse 50 Cent of not being a romantic at heart. The rapper chartered a jet full of presents for his singer girlfriend Ciara's 22nd birthday.
Fiddy filled the plane with thousands of pounds worth of goodies, including fresh rose petals, teddy bears, candles and chocolates from a Dublin cake shop, and had it flown to the World Music Awards in Monte Carlo.
He also told 3am that he would treat her to 22 birthday parties at various exotic locations around the world.
Talk about keen.
Trey Songs Arrested?
Singer Trey Songz was arrested in Springfield, MA yesterday (Nov 4) with several members of his crew after a shooting.
The singer was charged with "behaving as a disorderly person" and resisting arrest. He was subsequently released after posting $500 bond.
The shooting occurred in the parking lot of the Hippodrome, where Trey Songz performed Saturday evening. Shots were fired behind the venue, where Lt. John Slepchuck of the Springfield Police Dept. explained the commotion.
“Our disorderly person charge can involve several different things including the use of certain language, failure to do what an officer asks,” said Slepchuck, according to AHH. “[Neverson] was interfering with an active crime scene involving a victim.”
The alleged shooter, a 29-year-old man named Anthony Williams is in police custody, facing (among other charges) assault with intent to murder and possession of a firearm without a license.
Williams' victim suffered non-life threatening injuries. No connection has been made tying either man to Songz.
On October 11, a similar incident occurred in the Opera Nightclub in Atlanta, where the singer's performance was interrupted in gunfire.

What can I say about American Gangster...hmmm I say it was one of the best movies I've seen
in a long time. Denzil kills it at usual it was a very good movie. Well Im not the good at movie reviewing
so here is a movie review from hiphopdx.com.
What makes American Gangster an instant classic is that it crafts a complex matrix of crime, race, power, morals, ambition, duty, family, all in the context of American culture, not just of the late 60s and early 70s when the film is set but its relevance to the present day. Director Ridley Scott turns in one of his best films in an already distinguished career as he skillfully finds the darkness, the humor, and the massive scale of the storyline but he never forgets his characters. There’s an overwhelming trust of the audience’s ability to put the narrative together and not use flashbacks or heavy-handed exposition in exchange for the depth and thought the narrative provides.
Crowe turns in his standard solid performance but it’s Washington who has the more fascinating character and he plays Lucas with such frightening subtlety and cold-blooded ferocity that he easily has you wrapped around his finger. It’s not just the character’s brilliance and confidence, but rather his eerily familiar business sense. Frank sees his product as any other product but since he’s a black man living across 110th street (the film also features the best use of “Across 110th Street” since Across 110th Street) he is shut off from the “legitimate” business of white men so instead of selling toasters, he’s selling heroin. And even those who oppose the War on Drugs have no love for that drug. I’ve never heard of a “casual heroin user”. Frank is dealing in human misery and yet he is no sociopath or poor, deluded soul. Nor is Richie some brainless boy scout who cares only for protocol.
There are no easy answers to be found in American Gangster but it is a magnificently crafted and thoroughly entertaining flick that will not only get inside your head but send your blood racing. It is not only one of the best films of the year, but one of the best films, period.

I need to sell records by dissing Jay plan. The most funny thing is, the fact he try to talk money to

Guess what else his little shitty mixtape is dropping when American Gangster drops Nov 02.
Here is a lamer ass statement he made:
"He's pretty much on top and he been in the game [too long], he messin' up my grind right now," Jones said. "He keep comin' out and takin' this money, like that's my money right there, old head. I need that paper, man. Every time you come out, you mess it up for brothers like me. We need in. That's why I do things like put out albums in one week."
I am just tired of him with this crap he raps about. I would murder his ass in a battle and I know it
