"It's the Real University, Two Gun Gang, Street Executives. It's not DTP no more," he says. "I'm actually behind [Ludacris], he's still my homie. I just took another route as far as running my own company and bossing up. But on the other hand, I'm still working with him. He has an album coming out this year, as well." (XXL Mag)

G-Unit general 50 Cent has opened up on his new DJ Pauly D signing and why he sees the "Jersey Shore" reality show star being a cross between DJ Khaled and DJ Drama. "When Pauly came by to see me, they had options. They had several places that they were going, and people that were interested in doing a deal with him. Obviously, the momentum from "Jersey Shore" was spun off into him being the first one to have his own independent series. They're moving places and DJing in front of bigger audiences, and getting ready to make moves internationally, where the DJ is the star, overseas. When I sat with him, I saw the opportunities we could have moving forward, with brand extension and packaging the music...I look forward to it. I call him "the bridge." He's going to be something between what you would get from a DJ Khaled or a DJ Drama and what you would get from David Guetta." (Rolling Stone)Whats your thoughts on 50's new signee?
All that grinding paid off for Lola Monroe. The smoking-hot former Eye Candy vixen is now the first lady of Wiz Khalifa's Taylor Gang. “New music, new situation – Taylor Gang,” Lola recently declared on V-103 The People’s Station in Atlanta. This is what she had to say “Shout out to Wiz and we’re just getting it in. It’s all about that work. Wiz is an individual that’s all about his business and that matches everything on my side. When he reached out, he said, I feel as though our movements represent the same thing, so I want you to rep Taylor Gang. I agreed. It’s only right.”..... I never looked at her as a Nicki Minaj or even a Lil Kim, but hey maybe he see's more than I see besides ASS, heres her interview below of her signing with Wiz...
