NYC was filled with celebs last night as they flocked to the many exclusive events that went down in the city that never sleeps. Chris Brown, Fabolous, and supermodel Jessica White attended Swatch’s launch party for their New Gents Collection at the Gansevoort.

While, our fav U.K. chick Estelle made her rounds yesterday along with Trey Songz, Method Man and others who came out to the launch party of Def Jam Rapstar at the Hudson Hotel.

“We da best” aka DJ Khaled shared DJ’n duties with Funkmaster Flex…

(BLOWING MONEY FAST)”

Here’s a new Rick Ross video for “B.M.F. (Blowing Money Fast)”. This Maybach Music goes real hard…*PAUSE*

Sidebar: Diddy just had to throw Circo in the mix…smh

Damn, Diddy proves yet again that he is the corniest dude on earth–hands down! He just keeps on dancing in other people’s videos and to top it off he’s been rockin’ that wack a$$ grill to compliment his wack a$$ dance moves. Anywhoo, enough about Diddy–who tried to take over the video and let’s get back to Ricky. I’ve been banging this track for a minute and I’m glad the Teflon Don put out a video for it. As for Diddy, seems like he’s mesmerized with his eyes set on Ross to be his Biggie. Is Ricky comparable to B.I.G.? They both do have flow and impeccable style, but…

ON DECK or OFF DECK?!

A few hours ago, Str8NYC hopped on a conference call with the “Supreme Team”, Rick Ross, Diddy and DJ Khaled courtesy of Def Jam and BOBO. A few things were revealed on the call, which we’ll get into later. But, we’re gonna touch on Diddy comparing his new client to the late Notorious B.I.G. first. When asked what’s the best quality he sees in Rick Ross as an artist, Diddy responded:

“I think overall his approach to a record, you know what I’m saying? And overall him as an artist. He doesn’t just talk about the regular stuff that you hear a lot of cats talking about now. Everything he talks about is from the soul and is from his heart. And his approach to the record, you know what I’m saying? The way he approaches the record is from a real standpoint, you can tell he’s approaching it from an honest standpoint. You know, I’ve always been wanting to work with artists that have a certain vocal tone and he sounds like a giant–he is a giant. He just has that personality, you know what I’m saying? He’s a very unique artist. He’s bigger than just an artist–he’s a brand! And that’s one of the reasons I wanted to work with him is because I feel we can do bigger and better things. And having worked with Biggie, somebody that also was talking about things in the street. I’m not comparing him to Biggie, before you know we get started going down that road. But, I am saying that there is similarities in the mental approach of a record that I do have a familiarity with. To me, however anybody wants to take it–he’s the Biggie of the South. Hands down!”

WHOA! Realtalk, Biggie and Rick Ross shouldn’t even be mentioned in the same sentence. The only thing they have in common is that they’re both fat and black. Rick Ross may talk about the streets, but his past as CO tells a completely different story.

Be on the look out for more tidbits from the call…

It’s gon’ be a party y’all! Earlier today, Hot 97 announced the lineup for this year’s Summer Jam set to take place June 6^th at the new Meadowlands Stadium in New Jersey. This year’s acts include Usher, Young Money’s Drake and Nicki Minaj, Trey Songz, Juelz Santana, Fabolous, Reflection Eternal, DJ Khaled, Ludacris and Gucci Mane since he’ll be out of the pen by then–let’s just hope he doesn’t get his a$$ locked up again!

You already know to expect the unexpected at Summer Jam. Last year, Jay-Z launched a massive assault on Auto-Tune with the debut of “D.O.A”.
