Say it isn’t so! Waka Flocka Flame says he wants to retire from the rap game after 2011.

Apparently, the Brick Squad soldier is fed up with the industry fakeness and the stress that comes along with being one of the top rhyme-spitters in hip-hop. “This game 2 fake I [quit] rap after this year,” he tweeted.

Waka’s momanager, Debra Antey, co-signed her son’s disdain of the music business. “We’re all disgusted with this stuff. You can’t trust people,” she reportedly said. Antey believes her son’s retirement is a good thing, as it will help bring them closer together as mother and son — rather than manager and artist.

The Wu-Tang Clan has never been shy about flaunting their influences: from martial arts to La Cosa Nostra, chess and, of course, superhero comics. But member Ghostface Killah’s love of one Marvel icon in particular, Iron Man, is putting the Shaolin rapper in some hot legal water.

According to reports, composer Jack Urbont is suing Sony Music Entertainment and Ghostface (born Dennis Coles) over claims the rapper illegally sampled his “Iron Man Theme” from the 1960s “The Marvel Super Heroes” TV show.

Ghostface, who named his 1996 solo debut Ironman, and whose many aliases include Ironman and the superhero’s alter ego, billionaire industrialist Tony Stark (which Ghostface spells Starks), has long had a fascination with the character. But Urbont claims in his suit that two songs on Ghostface’s second album, 2000’s Supreme Clientele copied “verbatim” the “Theme” he wrote for the show.

He shot to fame as a baby-faced rapper aged 13.

But BowWow isn’t so little anymore, and the now 24-year-old has revealed to his fans that he has become a father.

After previously slamming websites who reported the news, the Like You hitmaker has admitted that he welcomed a little girl, Shai Moss, in June.

Writing on his website, the artist, real name Shad Gregory Moss, told fans: ‘My lil girl is getting BIG fast. I love every minute of it. She inspires me to go harder. Even made me treat my mother better, its like it made me into a man overnight.

Shai Moss’ mother is BowWow’s ex-girlfriend and music video star Joie Chavis.

A Rihanna concert in Dallas, TX ended early Friday night, after a fire caused the pop singer to exit the stage.

A video posted on YouTube shows a fire burning at the top of the stage at the American Airlines Center, with some sparks falling toward the floor. Some people begin to stream out.

The R&B and pop star posted several messages on Twitter following the incident.

“DALLAS!!! We set the stage on FYAH tonight!!! LITERALLY!!! I’m so (mad), I was havin so much fun wit yall too!!! I gotta come back man!!” the singer tweeted.

Dallas Fire-Rescue Captain Johnny Bates said a chair caught on fire.

Florida rapper Khia obviously has a lot of time on her hands.

In what seems like a ploy for attention, the rapper most known for her 2002 hit “My Neck, My Back,” went on her Myspace blog (of all places), and went on a rant dissing some of the biggest names in entertainment.

Khia Blogged disses against Amber Rose, Beyonce, Chris Brown, Gucci Mane, Jamie Foxx, Nicki Minaj and Rick Ross.

ATL rapper Gucci Mane, real name Radrick Davis, was released from the Fulton County jail at 4:30 a.m. Friday.

Gucci Mane had been in jail since April, after pushing a woman out of his moving vehicl and violating his probation.

Anticipating his return, rumors began that Gucci Mane was released earlier this week, coupled by a release of his new mixtape, Writing On The Wall 2, and a Welcome Home Back party.

Though, Gucci missed his welcome home party because he wasn’t home yet.

Nicki Minaj’s cousin Nicholas Telemaque 27, was killed around 2:40 am, July 4th leaving the Brooklyn club–C-Pac according to Mediatakeout.com, after being shot multiple times in the upper torso. No arrests have been made yet in the tragic case.

Nicki Minaj took to her Twitter page to mourn saying “Lived in Brooklyn his whole life. My precious cousin. My baby. Killed last nite.”

Gilbert Arenas is in a rage right now after it finally hit him that his former fiance, Laura Govan, will be on television possibly talking about him.?   He’s reportedly demanded that “Basketball Wives: L.A.” be stopped, maintaining that his ex, the mother of his 4 children involvement has the potential to exploit him and damage his image. There are no plans to mention Arenas’ name on the show, but he says just the title of the show and Govan’s presence is an obvious sign of malice.

This isn’t the first time behind-the-scenes drama has ensued over the show.

In May, Chris Bosh filed suit to keep his ex-girlfriend, Allison Mathis, off the original series. But she filed a countersuit, claiming Bosh lied to producers about her eligibility to keep her off the show. Other NBA players have protested as well, including Matt Barnes, boyfriend of former B-Wive’s star, Gloria.

Laura is Gloria’s sister, and is allegedly the other woman that triggered the divorce between Shaunie O’Neal (Basketball Wives show owner) and her now ex-hubby, Shaq.

An inmate has come forward with possible confirmation of the man who murdered Biggie Smalls while implicating members of the Nation of Islam, including himself, in the cover-up.

Former Nation of Islam member, and currently incarcerated federal felon, Clayton Hill has confessed to his role as an accessory after the fact to the murder of The Notorious B.I.G.

Hill disclosed that in October of 2010 he met with Assistant U. S. Attorney Nancy DePodesta and two agents with the F. B. I.’s Domestic Terrorism Unit and revealed that in May of 1997, while acting under orders as an official with Muhammad Mosque #15 in Atlanta, Georgia, he took possession of a semi-automatic handgun from a fellow N.O.I. member from Los Angeles, California who introduced himself as Dawoud Muhammad.

“Dawoud Muhammad stated to me that he was on the run for the murder of The Notorious B.I.G.,” “He disclosed that he was the shooter of The Notorious B.I.G. because he (Dawoud) was a former Blood gang member and was paid to do so.”

In his forthcoming e-book, Diary of an Ex-Terrorist, Clayton quotes Dawoud bragging to him of that payment, “And I made twenty-five ‘g’s’ off that.”

Hill’s e-book containing all of the aforementioned allegations (and many more), Diary of an Ex-Terrorist, is due for release July 15th via Clayton’s own Bella Media Group.
