The West Is One
The Game has joined West Coast compadre Snoop Dogg on a 30-date North American tour,
beginning April 15 at the E Center in West Valley City, Utah. This hot ticket will end May 29 in Vancouver, B.C., after which
Snoop will play one last East Coast show on his own before heading to Europe. Along the way, Snoop will do some solo gigs,
including two nights at Harlem's famous Apollo Theatre May 2-3. Snoop will perform material from last year's R&G (Rhythm & Gangsta): The Masterpiece, while The Game will shares gems from his debut album, The Documentary. Hmmm... we wonder if he'll show up on the Anger Management Tour with 50 Cent?? :
Kanye, Jay-Z Give An Early Peek At West's Late Registration
Rappers debut the single 'Diamonds' on New York's Hot 97.
Grammys and platinum plaques haven't made Kanye West lazy; in fact, he's striving for more perfection.
West, along with Jay-Z, premiered "Diamonds," the first single from his upcoming Late Registration album, Wednesday
on New York radio station Hot 97.
"The Roc is still alive every time I rhyme," he says at the beginning of the record. He goes on to drop a litany of punch
lines, rapping, "I realized that I arrived/ Because it takes more than a magazine to kill my vibe" and "All I need is y'all
to pronounce my name/ It's Kanye, but some of my plaques, they still say 'Kayne.' "
Jay told the station's Angie Martinez
that West mixed his record about 14 times before he felt comfortable enough to put it out.
West said "Diamonds" was
inspired by memories of Jay-Z's 2001 Blueprint Lounge tour and recollections of being a part of the Roc-A-Fella movement.
He also said he's still friends with former Roc CEO Dame Dash, whom he references in the song: "You know the next question,
'Yo, where's Dame at?'/ This track's the Indian dance to bring our reign back."
Late Registration is due July
12, according to Kanye.
