Damn, Guess Freddie Gibbs & Young Jeezy Didn’t Part Ways On The Best Of Terms!
A few years back, Freddie Gibbs was one of the biggest new names buzzing in music. He landed a coveted spot on the XXL Freshmen cover back in 2010, and in 2011, Young Jeezy scooped him up as the flagship artist on his CTE imprint. 2 years later, though, not much had come of it and the guys parted ways. Jeezy actually cleared the whole label out, so as to make for a fresh start. Apparently, it wasn’t the best of ways to part and today via a couple tweets and a radio interview, Gibbs revealed the two didn’t end on the best terms. Listen to what he had to say below and check his tweets in the gallery!

Did Azealia Banks’ Lastest Controversy Get Her Dropped From Interscope?!
Rapper/singer Azealia Banks is NO stranger to controversy…as the newcomer has traded shots with everyone from veteran DJ Funk Flex to someone who opened doors for artists like her (Nicki Minaj) to fellow newcomer Iggy Azalea and many more in just her short time in the game. Her latest came this weekend, starting with another newcomer, Angel Haze, and spilling over with famous blogger, Perez Hilton. The latter resulted in most of the controversy, as she called Perez (who’s very vocal about being gay) a homophobic slur. All of this resulted in a new rumor that she was dropped by her label Interscope before she could even put out her debut album, Broke With Expensive Taste. Complex did some digging and got the 411 below. Marisa Mendez
