What up people? It’s ya gurl Miss Hinds, back with another edition of the Inside Scoop on What’s What in Hip-Hop. This week’s rundown is filled news and reviews on these candid celebrities that we love to hear about so much. Let’s get into it….shall we??

So former G-Unit affiliate, The Game, is RETIRING?? Yes people, the Compton based rapper claims that his third album will be the last project in his career as a rapper. In a recent taping for QD3’s Beef IV, Game basically announces that he has achieved what he’s sought to do in Hip-Hop. “I got my point across. I was a prominent figure on the West Coast and a bigger figure in Hip-Hop as a whole. I think I made my impact enough for my name to be said and remembered.” He credits Dr. Dre as someone who played an important role in helping him achieve success. Well good luck Game! Your constant rap beef and drama will surely be missed!

Fat Joe is wanted for questioning as a possible eyewitness to a homicide in Miami! The incident occurred over the Memorial Holiday weekend in Miami’s South Beach. Jermaine “Wufgang” Chamberline was arrested as the culprit of the crime. He confessed to the shooting after officials were able to place him at the scene of the crime and bear witnesses to the incident. Fat Joe, who was slated to perform at a party with DJ Khaled, is suspected to have been with the victims before the shooting occurred. According to the report, Lessli Paz, Joey Navarro and possibly Fat Joe were sitting in a parked black Cadillac Escalade around 6am when Paz, Navarro were confronted by Chambeline. A verbal

altercation escalated and the three men began fighting. Chamberline unleashed a 9mm handgun letting off four rounds, killing Pan and Navarro. It is unknown whether or not Fat Joe was involved in the fight according to the Miami Herald. Fat Joe was not available for comments at press time.

It's been reported that R&B artist Ray J has landed a deal with condom company Trojan after hitting the headlines for his part in a leaked sex tape with Kim Kardashian. Ray J says, "I'm doing a little Trojan deal. It's in play right now." The young talent insists he has no problems with the deal - because it's all just business: "At this moment you can either sit back and watch everything just go, or you can capitalize and come up with a way to make $20 million a year." He also adds, "I'm sponsoring a new drink that kind of stimulates you, like liquid Ecstasy, but over-the-counter."
