- 50 CENT MOVING TO CANADA? -

I am puzzled by this one. The MADD one received a tip off that 50 Cent and Elton John were in a bidding war for a multi-million dollar home in Caledon, Ontario (about 45 minutes outside of Toronto). The tipster didn't know whether Elton or 50 won the bid. But hey, if you're a suburban gangster living in Caledon there is still a chance you could sign with G-Unit. The area is country...and I say country, I mean cows, horses and no street lights.

- PAY FOR PLAY? -

I have heard payola is still running rampant in the radio biz and 50's new single "I Get Money" is one song that is benefiting from this practise. How else do you explain a song with no buzz securing decent radio play?

- SHOPPING WITH DUDES? -

According to Hip-Hop Weekly (and yes, I know that already makes this a joke) Joe Budden was spotted out shopping at a supermarket with some guy. According to the Hip-Hop gossip rag, he was all hugged up on this guy at the store. I personally don't believe this for one second.

- BROKE? -

I heard a rumor that Petey Pablo is broke. This is one of those rumorz that I can't confirm, but it isn't hard to believe.

- BARRY BONDS SKIPPIN' OUT -

Barry Bonds is skipping out on tonight's home run derby in his hometown so he can co-host a party with Jay-Z. Bonds said the derby would tire him out too much (right, but gettin' your drink on with Jay-Z and Beyonce won't). "My party's been planned," he told the Associated Press. "It's something I'll remember forever. I'll have a party with whoever I can have a party with. I will be thankful I got to be in the All-Star game in San Francisco." Who else can't stand Barry Bonds? Is it just me?
