Tupac Shakur was resurrected via hologram for a performance at this year’s Coachella Music Festival and we’ve got the full video right here for your viewing pleasure.

More than fifteen years after his murder, rapper Tupac Shakur brought the house down at Coachella on Sunday night. The Hologram Tupac appeared on stage to perform Come With Me and Gangsta Party alongside Snoop Dogg. He greeted the audience, asking, “What up, Coachella?”

Later, the hologram appeared next to Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre for a performance of his hit song Hail Mary. Later, Snoop was joined by 50 Cent, Eminem and Wiz Khalifa.

RIP Tupac. Gone but not forgotten. Now where’s the Notorious B.I.G. hologram?

Reportedly, Eminem was upset that he walked into the Grammy Awards on Sunday with ten nominations and only left with two gold statues. He was said to have shunned future Grammy performances because of the lack of prizes.

A source said, “He got iced out. He did the Grammy people a solid favor by coming in from Detroit and performing. They egged him on and gave him the impression it would be a big night for him. Best Rap Album and Best Solo Rap Performance are nice awards, but not the big ones. It will take a lot of effort on their part to get him and Dr. Dre back to the Grammys to perform.”

His spokesperson is calling BS on the rumors, saying, “This is untrue. He was happy to be there and perform with Dre. Voting is voting, and there’s only so much you can do about that.”

Justin Bieber was spotted out and about, cruising around in his Lamborghini yesterday, getting some ice cream in Los Angeles.

The teen singer met up with Dr. Dre and tweeted about it yesterday. He said, “also got to be in the studio with the legend himself Dr. Dre…made a couple beats and he gave me some advice…i was hyped. can u blame me?”

Nope, we can’t blame you at all. We love Dr. Dre. (continue reading…)

Eminem has scrapped the name Relapse 2 for his upcoming album, and has instead decided to call it Recovery.

He said, “I had originally planned for Relapse 2 to come out last year. But as I kept recording and working with new producers, the idea of a sequel to Relapse started to make less and less sense to me, and I wanted to make a completely new album. The music on Recovery came out very different from Relapse, and I think it deserves its own title.”

The new album has a release date of June 22, 2010. I can’t wait! Can we get some Dre on that album, too, please?

Ice Cube is planning on working on a collaboration with Dr. Dre for his new album, “I Am The West.”

The album is due out this summer, but Ice Cube is trying to get his former NWA buddy in on the effort. He said, “I wanna answer a few questions you have for ya’ boy – Beats by Dre? Not yet. Haven’t asked him, but I will. Any collabos? Not yet.”

Of the concept for the album, Cube said, “I would give you guys the concept but I’mma save that and let you see it for yourself. Now I know it seems like my record is West Coast crazy – Yeah it is. But I got a lot of real shit to say on this record just like I always do. So my political fans won’t be disappointed. But sometime the Big Dog gotta piss on a few trees to let these puppies know what it is. They can’t fuck wit me lyrically or physically. They all talks shit from a distance cause they know, I may do comedies but I aint no joke.”

Dr. Dre must be gearing up for the release of “Detox”, which is reportedly due out in the fall. (Woot!) To tide you over until then, we have this nifty commercial.

Dre just filmed this new commercial for Dr. Pepper, where he says, “Slow is better. Trust me, I’m a doctor.”

Is that “Detox” playing as he spins???

Dr. Dre put his long-awaited album, “Detox’, on the backburner so that he could produce Eminem’s “Relapse” record.

Dre pushed back “Detox” to help Em with “Relapse” and 50 Cent with his latest effort, “Before I Self Destruct”.

Eminem says, “He’s recorded a lot of material. He was working on his record for a good time period, I would say probably a year, he was working on his record and he basically put that on hold once we got on the road with my record, which I’m extremely grateful for you know.”

A new Shady song has just been leaked! And this one features Dr. Dre. The new song is called “For Old Time’s Sake” and it’s a total throwback to the days of the Slim Shady LP.

Rick Ross is now ripping off Eminem, Dr. Dre, and 50 Cent’s work in this freestyle version of the comeback single, “Crack A Bottle”.

Are you feeling it? Or should he go away already?

Eminem talked about his new song, “We Made You“, which is set to be the first single from his upcoming album, “Relapse“. The album is set to drop on May 19th.

New Eminem! Can’t wait! Give it to me already! And while you’re at it, where’s Dr. Dre’s new album?!??? I’ve been waiting patiently!

For the full MTV interview, click here.

In this new video that 50 Cent has posted on his site, he says that he’s the reason why Eminem got fat. But he does go in to detail as to what happened to Shady that caused him to put on a few extra pounds.

Think he’s just trying to drum up publicity for their new album? I wish they’d just drop it already, respectively. Yes, Dr. Dre, I’m talking to you, too.

Eminem has released his third (and possibly final) cut of his song, “Crack A Bottle“. The new track features Dr. Dre and 50 Cent and it’s just a sign of things to come. It’s said to be on the 2009 release of Relapse.

I’m going to be rockin’ this jam in the car asap. What do you think? And WHEN is Detox comin’ out already?

It’s being reported that Dr. Dre’s young son, Andre Young, Jr. has passed away. His body was found at his Woodland Hills home on Saturday morning.

His mother found him unresponsive when she checked on him at 10 a.m. and called an ambulance. He was said to have been out the night before and got home at 5:30 a.m.

The cause of death is unknown at this time.

Our condolences to the Young family in this very hard time.

R.I.P.

Eminem is back in the studio!

Oh yeah and the former hottie is hitting the gym with a personal trainer, as well. Reportedly, Em was involved in a pneumonia health scare, which prompted him to pile on the pounds. Now reports are coming in that he’s looking to get back into the buff “Superman” shape that he was in before the holidays.

Sources say that the rapper is in the studio cutting tracks with Dr. Dre. I can’t wait, Eminem and Dre have always been two of my favorite rappers.

And I can’t wait. Dr. Dre helped form the rap scene as it is today and is the main reason that I still listen to it. He helped Eminem blow up, then 50 Cent. Now, it’s Dre’s turn, for one last time. Built up to be the iconic rap album that everyone is going to own (or want to), “Detox” will be Dr. Dre’s last contribution to the rap game:

“I think it’s time to move on,” he tells the Los Angeles Times, calling rhyming “a young man’s game.” According to Interscope, there is no firm date for the album.

Dr. Dre also plans to possibly direct and score new films for New Line Cinemas:

Dre recently inked a multi-year production pact with New Line Cinema, under which he will join longtime collaborator, director Phillip G. Atwelll, to score and possibly direct films.

Dre’s branching out, yo.
