Guess what happens on MONDAY?

Are you ready for it? Kind of a pansy CD cover, but maybe I’m just saying that ’cause “pansy” is like, my favorite word this week.

Rapper Nas has been the center of controversy after announcing that the name of his new record would be Nigga. Things got even worse for the rapper when he decided to change it to N*gg*r. Now Def Jam is threatening to drop Nas from their label if he doesn’t change the name of his album. “There is no way that we can put out an album with that title. Many retailers have already told us – flat out – that they won’t carry (an album with that title),” a source told MediaTakeOut.com. If you were Nas what would you do?

BC Rich and Dean had some incredible guitars on display at NAMM. TheReaper took some photos of his favorites. Even if you don’t know much about guitars, you should check these out.

‘Bout time the music world gives me somethin’ to work with! Vote, then go rock your faces off.
