Lil' Wayne says 'Tha Carter IV' is done! Then what's the hold up?



During an interview with MTV News last week, Lil Wayne confirmed that the recording of the highly anticipated fourth installment of his Tha Carter series is finished and will drop at the end of August, a day after the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards air live on August 28.
'XXL Mag also adds that Lil' Wayne tapped Nas, Shyne and Jadakiss for an all-star posse cut that will close out the LP.




Contributing writer Shaheem Reid, who interviewed Weezy for XXL’s July/August 2011 cover story, had a chance to preview the disc and got a rundown of all of the set’s guest stars. As expected, Wayne has songs with his Young Money crew, along with Busta Rhymes, Bun B, Tech N9ne, Cee Lo, John Legend and will.i.am. Swizz Beatz, Bangladesh, Polow Da Don and Boi-1da all provided beats.

What can we expect from the Young Money lieutenant?
Judging by the latest Carter IV single, the album will offer even more diversity. According to Wayne, the acoustic-flavored, sing-songy "How to Love" was actually inspired by Tupac Shakur.


"That song is just sweeping the world. It's touching every woman, that's what it was for," Wayne said. "It was like Tupac had 'Keep Ya Head Up' and it was a message to women and little girls across the world just to keep your head up even though things are hard. That's what my song was."

Remembering Ryan Dunn...




Earlier this week, Ryan Dunn's family, friends and loved ones gathered at a memorial held at Paramount Pictures in Los Angeles to mourn the "Jackass" star's death. During the service, a very moving video tribute was played to honor Dunn, the second half of which was cut together by "Jackass" co-star Rick Kosick, and includes a song for Dunn by Roger Alan Wade, "The Light Outlives the Star."

'How'd they do that?' 'Transformers' stars discuss shooting the 'building-escape' scene!

'


For those who've seen "Transformers: Dark of the Moon," there is so much going on in the film that one could spend the next 12 months breaking down all the details. The building-escape scene is one of the more impressive 'tricks' in the film-- we turn our attention to one of the film's most impressive action sequences: the part when evil Decepticon Shockwave sends his massive, spinning, snakelike destroyer after our protagonists, who become trapped in the upper stories of a tall building. 'Shockwave' proceeds to cut the building in half, leaving our heroes no option but to jump out of the windows and slide down the outside of the building to safety.


MTV News had the scene's stars, Shia LaBeouf, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Tyrese Gibson, explain how they managed to pull off that sequence.

'Super Bass' rapper, Nicki Minaj is 'Principal for a Day'!



Nicki Minaj 'loves the kids!' Earlier this week, Nicki Minaj surprised a group of high school students at Chicago's Collin's Academy this past Wednesday.
 The students who won the 'Get MotivatED Challenge' – a six week competition to improve daily attendance rates nationwide were rewarded for their academic achievement and for the 7% increase in attendance. Nicki also led an English class and had lunch with the pupils. She commented:


“I am a young, female mogul before I am an artist. As a business woman there isn’t a single day where I don’t use my education or acquire new knowledge to ensure my success. Regardless of where you are today, with education you can take yourself where you want to be. That’s why I am working with the Get Schooled Foundation. They are finding innovative and exciting ways to bring that message to schools like the Collins Academy.”

Nicki stopped by the school to answer questions from a few chosen class seniors and freshmen in the school gymnasium as well as address the entire school body during an assembly hosted by MTV News’ very own Sway. Nicki, a graduate of New York’s LaGuardia High School herself, spoke to the students and faculty members about the importance of her education in her career.

“It was total pandemonium when she came out. They all stood up. I had to have them to sit down and tell them it ain’t a concert,” Sway told us laughing. “If your parent tries to tell you what’s best for you, you tend to not listen. But if that hero and person that they look up to like a Nicki Minaj—if she comes on stage and says, ‘You know what, you like the life I live? You like the things I’ve accomplished?’ Well this is how I did it, through education.’ Then you see that moment of clarity when everything clicks.”





Three Collins’ students who showed tremendous leadership during the six week period were awarded with $10,000 scholarships thanks to Get Schooled and Comcast. The College Board also donated a new counseling library to the school and provided one-year of free access to SAT prep on-line for every junior and senior in the class.

TAKE A LOOK AT THE PANDEMONIUM!!
