Rapper Lil' Wayne has shared his thoughts on the Aaliyah project that Drake is working on saying it's a good move. Get the deets inside and also hear Eve's "She Bad Bad" snippet and find out about Joe Budden possibly being the next "Love & Hip Hop" star...
Lil' Wayne has spoken up in full support of Drake's involvement in a posthumous Aaliyah album calling it a "good move." He adds,
"Everybody knows what Aaliyah did and done for music and culture, period, and it's always good to do that, for not only for people like that, just for her fans - you know what I mean?" Drake's a very thoughtful person. Everyone knows that. It's an awesome collaboration."
So why make a new Aaliyah ablum? Wayne says, "Her music is still awesome. It's still better than a lot of music out right now."
Hmm...We wonder if Weezy will also hop on a track?

While discussing reality tv he said he passed on season one of "LAHH" saying, “I turned that opportunity down.” But when it comes to the upcoming season, Joe hints that he'll be appearing.
As his ex-girlfriend Tahiry has landed a role on the show he said, “If Tahiry is on there, I’d expect to get a call. Tahiry is somebody I love, so I would do that.”

And in other "L&HH" additions, Monica's baby daddy Rocko (who signed a distribution deal with Stevie J and Joseline Hernandez) is rumored to be joining the Atlanta edition of the show. However, Monica isn't happy about it and folks are saying she offered up money to keep him off the show. No word if that's true but Rocko cryptically tweeted,
We wonder what he will be revealing......

The Dream said, ,
“I am committed as I have been previously to bringing the power of belief in the artist back to the forefront.
I share a unique view of an artist and as well as the business of music. I, with the help of many others, have ran a successful business for the last five years in the midst of the "Digital Change.” My concentration and effort will be to the artist to succeed in their dreams and goals. I've been a part of watching and participating in the success of many great women and men including Beyonce, Rihanna, Jay-Z, Kanye West, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion to name a few. Music means more than just a download, it’s life to the culture and also the people who listen. This is a new exciting yet critical time for music – ‘You Meet Change with Change!’”
