AllHipHop.com has an interview with Slim:
AllHipHop.com Alternatives: So what was the situation with 112 and Bad Boy?
Slim: Well, for a good five or six years we were pretty much in a production deal that wasn�t really good. We didn�t want to leave Bad Boy but we were stuck in this production agreement and in order to get out of the production agreement we had to leave Bad Boy. Unfortunately, that�s pretty much what happened.
AHHA: How�s the relationship now?
Slim: We�re still real cool with [Diddy]. As a matter of fact, I have a song with his artist that�s about to come out, and y�all about to hear it. It�s me, 8-Ball and MJG who�s signed to Bad Boy records, and I�m on it with Three Six Mafia.
There is some talk about Biggie in there, as well.
WordofSouth.com has an interview with Block. In it, he talks about Gorilla Zoe's album title and the guests on Yung Joc's album. The title of Zoe's album is going to be "Welcome to the Zoo".
WordofSouth.com: What�s the deal with Yung Joc�s new project?
Block: Joc in the studio right now doing �Hustlenomics� and the reason we named the album �Hustlenomics� is because everyone running around saying that Hip-Hop is dead and etc�so we went out and hustled up everybody man. We went and got Game and Jim Jones on a song together, Jazze Pha and Trick Daddy on a song together; he got 8Ball & MJG, Twista, Boyz N Da Hood, Mary J Blige, Monica, Lil Wayne, Rick Ross all on the album. He�s actually hustling with the whole game of Hip-Hop man and that albums crazy.
