Hip Hop enters the chocolate factory
Hip Hop's being going all Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory recently. Obie Trice ran a "Golden Ticket" contest when his album Cheers dropped a few weeks back (details here). Now comes this from the G-Unit website:
G-Unit's Beg for Mercy is in stores Nov. 14th.
And from the Roc-a-fella website:
Jay-Z's The Black Album is in stores Nov. 14th.
Let the duel begin (although I'm predicting a handy win by Jay Guevera in this one).
Now to some actually useful news: "FCC Approves Home-To-Cell Number Rule" (Source: Washington Post/AP).
And also, don't forget this ("On Nov. 24, a new federal regulation goes into effect that will force wireless carriers to allow consumers to keep their cell phone numbers when they switch service providers." Source: NY Post).

50 CENT & G UNIT RECORDS ARE GIVING AWAY $50,000.00 WORTH OF DIAMONDS!Wonder how much you'd actually get for one of those medallions if you tried to sell it at Harry Winston or Tiffany's (that is, if they'd take it)?
As a bonus, four “Golden Tickets” will be inserted into four random pressings of the first 1 Million copies of Beg For Mercy. Each winner will receive a chain with a diamond studded spinning G Unit medallion valued at $12,500. (No purchase necessary, See Official Rules Here.)"
