Video vixen Amber Rose continues to raise eyebrows by recently getting spotted sporting a face tattoo which had led to online speculation on whether or not the ink is permanent. A photo of Rose's eye-catching new look alongside boyfriend/rapper Wiz Khalifa has begun circulating online. On Saturday night, Amber Rose was spotted out outside a Miami nightclub with boyfriend Wiz Khalifa and a peculiar looking thing on her face: a lightning bolt tattoo. This morning, her rep denied the permanence of the her new ink, clarifying that the Harry Potter-meets-Mike Tyson art on her face was simply done with temporary makeup. (Complex)
When asked why she did not pretend the ink was legit, Rose told a Twitter follower she did not want to lead a potential movement."@HONKIEKONG Nah cuz I don't want my young Rosebuds to go get tatted cuz they think I did totally understand what ur saying tho :-)," she tweeted January 30th. (Amber Rose's Twitter)
Her facial tat is the latest trend since Rose was spotted wearing a long, dark wig last month. What a way to go undercover! Amber Rose was spotted rocking out to the tunes of her boo Wiz Khalifa and Snoop Dogg this past weekend at the Tabernacle in Atlanta. She was almost unrecognizable as she stood at the side of the stage rocking a white blazer, wolford tights and a long dark wig. Meanwhile, Wiz and Snoop tore it down, performing some of their latest collabos off of their new soundtrack, 'Mac & Devin Go To High School' from their upcoming movie with the same name.

Last year, G-Unit rap star 50 Cent offered his take on hip-hop artists like Gucci Mane tatooing their faces."That's the craziest thing," 50 explained in an interview. "Not necessarily Gucci, but to tattoo your face says that there's not a possibility that you can actually walk into a legitimate establishment without makeup covering your face every day. That does not work. It creates a separation. It says, 'I'm an artist.' That's it. That's the statement you make when you go and tattoo your face...But know that the public will not have interest in you as an artist for life. You have to be phenomenal. Talk to the best that do it and they will tell you that it will take more than you being an artist. It takes marketing, maneuvering to generate for that long. When you got 40 year-old rappers in the game, those guys have maneuvered and survived." (VIBE)

After Atlanta rapper Waka Flocka Flame recently labeled Pittsburgh's Wiz Khalifa swag-less, hip-hop veteran Snoop Dogg has stepped forward to play referee. Speaking up for Wiz, Snoop promised to hit up Waka Flocka and handle the matter personally. "I'ma holla at Waka Flocka," Snoop said sitting next to Wiz. "That's where big Uncle Snoop come in at, 'cause we ain't about that negativity and none of that beef. We too old for that. I'ma snatch him up by the collar and say, 'Look here, partna. You got somethin' to say to Wiz, get at him personally.' We peaceful. We on nothing but peace right now. This is my guy right here -- I love Wiz 'cause he got the right spirit that hip-hop needs. Too much negativity in the industry that always overwhelms his kind of spirit, and I'm here to let people know that this is the right kind of spirit." ("Big Boy's Neighborhood")
Last month, Waka Flocka named Wiz as a rapper suffering from no having swag."Yo [Kay] Slay, how you feel about these rap n*ggas with all that hype man," Waka Flocka asked in an interview.

I feel like they don't respect nothing but the real. You gotta. Wiz. Wiz. [laughs]" (Street Heat TV)

After weeks of speculation surrounding his status on Rick Ross' Maybach Music Group, Atlanta rapper Pill now claims he never officially inked a deal with the Warner Music Group label. Although perceived as an MMG artist, Pill said he was only linked through association. "I never signed any paperwork with Ross. It was just my deal was over at Warner already," Pill revealed to MTV News Tuesday. According to the "Trap Goin' Ham" MC, he was signed to Asylum/Warner Bros. Records at the end of 2009, a year before Ross brought his MMG label over to Warner Music Group. Pill says he is unaware of any conversations that Warner and Ross ever had concerning his career, but started receiving calls from Rozay around this time last year. The calls turned into collaborations -- many of which ended up on Self Made Vol. 1, Ross' MMG label compilation album. It was alluded that Pill was officially a part of Rozay's roster, along with Wale, Meek Mill and a host of other artists, but that wasn't the case, the rapper says. (MTV)
Last week, Pill took to Twitter to unleash his label woes. "No TV and No Radio.. U do the math. I bet u can name your favorite artist and the turn on the tv and see the video and hear it on the radio. It's not rocket science. Radio and TV b4 I had a deal, none after and u ask why Pill ain't blew all the way up. Artist sign deals, label doesnt do shit for them or don't even know to work the artist. time wasted. Ask Wiz Khalifa what Warner Bros did for him. I'll wait.. dropped em. Atlantic signed em put em on TV and Radio and he sky rocketed. Mind you, whn I signed I had one of the biggest records in 09? "Trap Goin Ham" never touched TV never touched radio. [sic]" (Pill's Twitter)
He also compared his 2009 buzz to platinum-selling rap stars Drake and Nicki Minaj."Now go back and do your research and see what unsigned artist was neck n neck with Drake's So Far Gone in 09? Pill 4180: The Prescription. If I remember tht list correctly. It was Nicki Minaj, Drake, Pill, Wayne, Jeezy. Nw what the hell ws a new cumber like me doin on that list? Because IM DOPE!! That's why, u ain't gotta believe it but I know it and won't ever stop until I get that spot I deserve. Peace. Thanx. Top 10 freshman cover of the New Times, unsigned hype MTV fire starter cover Creative Loafing, German magazine's, French radio, Jimmy kimmel. Did a movie with Evan Ross and Brittany Snow, Had a documentary air at the UN summit in Geneva, Switzerland, Mark Ronson's album, toured. in London, countless shows in the states, Short Films, etc. and that with No TV or Radio. Now imagine some push and TV and radio would do. [sic]" (Pill's Twitter)......This one is crazy for the simple fact someone gets a chance that millions pray for and they get cocky and arrogant before they even officially take off, I mean dude compared his buzz to Nicki Minaj & Drake??? I wont put anymore of my personal opinion on this topic but I live by Loyalty before Royalty, dude must didnt get the memo, your thoughts?.....
