The last few months have been a little crazy and, as such, we have been focusing on high level stories - or stories that happened to cross my desk - here at Bad Boy Blog. At the same time, being a comprehensive source, I at least wanted to summarize some of the stories that fell through the cracks during this time. Check out some of them below.
Gorilla Zoe Featured on Diego Cash's "L.I.F.E." (Free Download)
Rapper Diego Cash released a new mixtape in December, titled "Honorable Mention," and Gorilla Zoe appeared as a guest on the track "L.I.F.E." with Supplya. You can download the mixtape for free at DatPiff, via Diego Cash's Facebook page. You can also listen below.
That may have changed. Last month, HipHopDX's Jake Paine reported that Zoe's upcoming album, "King Kong," would be his "first solo album without the involvement of Bad Boy Records or Sean "Diddy" Combs." The album is now set for a March 22 release.
Adding to this is the fact that Gorilla Zoe's "What's Goin On" has charted on Billboard, but not under Bad Boy. Instead, it is listed under Block/eOne/Atlantic.
I have been hearing whispers of this for a while, but have been unable to receive confirmation from anyone involved.
Gorilla Zoe has released a new mixtape, "I Am Atlanta 3," for free download, as expected. You can pick it up at LiveMixtapes.com. Plus, listen and check out the cover and track listing below.
The 15 track set, presented by Block Entertainment and DJ Scream, will feature all 7 tracks from the EP and production from Christopher "Drumma Boy" Gholson, Zaytoven, Lex Luger and more.

Gorilla Zoe is featured on a new song by Russell "Block" Spencer dedicated to the Atlanta Falcons, who are among eight teams remaining in the National Football League (NFL) playoffs. The song, "ATL Falcons," samples a Samuel L. Jackson featured video that the team released this summer. Alongside Zoe and the sampled Jackson, the song also features All Starr Da Great of Boyz N Da Hood and Rebel Gang. You can listen and download on the Block Entertainment website.
The latest video from Gorilla Zoe's "I Am Atlanta 3" EP is "Up on the Pole." It was directed by WillC and Tana and you can watch it below (warning: adult themes). The first two videos to come from the set were "F*** N****" and "Stankin."
Here is the second music video for Gorilla Zoe's "I Am Atlanta 3" EP, following "F*** N****." It's "Stankin" and it was directed by WillC & Tana. The song was produced by Sonny Digital.
