Afeni Shakur, mother of slain rapper Tupac Shakur, filed a lawsuit against Daz Dillinger (Delmar Arnaud) on Monday (August 27), seeking unspecified damages. Shakur filed the lawsuit to stop Dillinger's unauthorized release of Makaveli & Dillinger - The EP, which is scheduled for release on Dillinger's DPG Records on December 25. The material was recorded while Dillinger and Tupac Shakur were both signed to Death Row Records in 1995-96. As executor and sole beneficiary of her son's estate, Afeni Shakur owns the rights to his musical compositions and the use of his trademarks, which include 2Pac and Makaveli.

The lawsuit contains 13 causes of action, including trademark infringement, unfair competition, trademark dilution, copyright infringement, trademark infringement under common law, conversion, unjust enrichment, declaratory relief, and accountings. Shakur maintains that Dillinger has never asked or been granted permission to release the recordings or to use her son's name. Shakur also maintains that Dillinger has been advertising the release of the album and taking pre-orders via his website all without her permission or authorization.

Dillinger should be familiar with the feeling of having recordings released without consent, as Death Row Presents: Tha Dogg Pound 2002 is currently Number 100 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. Death Row Records released the set in July, compiling older material recorded by Dillinger and his partner Kurupt while the pair was still signed to Death Row in the mid-'90s. Death Row still owns the rights to Tha Dogg Pound name, so the duo now records under the DPG moniker.

DJ Quik and Hi-C have filed a lawsuit against the Source Magazine as well as the city of Pasadena and its police department. If you may recall, DJ Quik was the one who was shown on national TV, dressed in white being tackled and manhandled by the police while he was on the red carpet. This was the footage that was shown all around the world whenever last year's Source Awards were mentioned. What really set this off was the fact that DJ Quik was attacked by some cats who simply were hating on him. Security didn't hold back the assailants, they simply went after Quik who was trying to defend himself. He's suing for medical expenses, loss of hearing and pain and suffering.

The legendary Back To School Powerhouse 2001 concert took place last Saturday at The Pond in Anaheim. The concert was dynamite and had lots of West Coast artists reppin, like Xzibit, Ras Kass and DJ Quik. Kurupt was there too as the special surprise artist and he brought along his brother Roscoe, Daz and Tha Liks with him. They performed songs like 'Aint No Fun', 'What Would You Do', Lets Get High', 'Behind the Walls', 'Who Ride Wit Us' and more. DJ Quik performed the song 'Tonite'. Xzibit performed all his classic songs. Check out some dope pics from the concert below, courtesy Power 106. Click to enlarge.

In other small news, 'Cool' is the next single for the Eastsidaz' latest album 'Duces & Trayz'. It features Nate Dogg and was produced by Hi-Tek. The new Jay Z album leaked and Daz produced none of the tracks, after he was supposed to produce like 8 or 9 tracks for Jay. Looks like Jay Z changed his mind.

Watts native Khaleeq the Punisher has a new album coming out called 'The Murder Show' and you can order it from watts90002@yahoo.com for 10 bucks + shippin. He's one of Dresta's homies and has some dope songs out. Check his site Khaleeq Online for more infos + songs.

Cube talked to MTV the other day about his new Greatest Hitz album comin at cha November 20th.
"It's coming out kinda tight," Cube said of the greatest-hits project during a break from recording on Wednesday. The cold one was in the studio with the Neptunes laying a new track called "In the Midnight Hour," which he plans to include on his greatest-hits collection. "The record companies kinda hooked it up," he said.
"When [the Neptunes] heard they was going to work with me, they put some stuff together in Virginia and flew it out here," he explained. "As a rapper, when you get some producers like the Neptunes to have something tailor-made for you, that's kinda of what you look for."
"It's a mixture of things," Cube explained. "Songs that were big on the radio and chart-wise, like 'It Was a Good Day,' but also songs like 'A Gangsta's Fairytale' from my earlier years on AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted. A video was never made, the song never charted, but clearly one of my greatest hits. 'Jackin' for Beats' is on there. 'Pushin' Weight,' 'We Be Clubbin', 'Check Yo Self,' a whole lot of them."
"This might be my last record for a while, 'til I get rejuvenated," he said. "Right now I do records more for fun. The hustle and bustle of the business is boring, it's wack, it's depressing. I refuse to play the record game at this point in my career.

Snoop Dogg will appear in a new movie called Crime Partners with the likes of Ice T, Ja Rule, Chino XL, Charli Baltimore, Angie Martinez and Cormega. The movie, based on the Donald Goines novel of the same name, stars Tyrin Turner and John "BJ" Bryant as Billy Goode and Jackie Williams, a pair of inner-city thugs who are hired by an underground crime lord to murder white crooked cops. Billy and Jackie's drama intensifies when they cross King Fisher, a notorious street hustler portrayed by Ice T.
Snoop Dogg has committed to working on the soundtrack.

Here some news that i picked up at the WCC forum: The new Murder Dog issue has an article on Snoop and the tentative title of his next album is Doggystyle Part 2. Its has more news on Kokane's new album 'Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Kane' which will be produced by Kokane himself, Dre & Meech Wells. More news on the new Mac 10 album, he's workin together with Dre on that one (will be released on Cash Money). Pick up that mag. Thanx to Incognito for the news. LilJermaine

Sup peeps, I got my hands on those songs that I promised in the last update. This song is brand new and officially from the Training Day Soundtrack. Its by Dr. Dre & DJ Quik. Well this collabo is like a dream come true for some of yall including me. This song is so hot you will like it whether youre a Dre/ Quik fan or not. It was produced by Dre himself and it also features female singer Mimi and she did a pretty good job on the hook. Anyways, enough talk, stream the song below:
» Dr. Dre - Put It On Me feat. DJ Quik, Mimi [Stream]

As the bigg homie Dpc2K reported on his site, Big Cartoon hooked up the WCA sites with some new infos on the Eazy E DVD's. Peep the news:
In regards to the Eazy E DVD that has been talked about, there's a rumored DVD coming out from Ruthless Records which is not the same DVD as the one theyre producing on Lil Eazy Records/Films. The Lil E release is being produced with the help of many people close to Eazy, and features extremely rare material, including raw video footage, behind the scenes interviews, lots of home video, performances, and so on. It will also serve as a means to introduce Lil Eazy E to the world at large, as most Eazy E fans are not aware that he will be coming out.
With that said, be on the lookout for what has been discussed as a Boyz N Tha Hood 2002 remix. Hopefully that will happen soon. Much success to both endeavors, Lil E and Ruthless, as Eazy's name needs to be carried on. In other news, this past weekend the homiez had a little photo-shoot with Bigg A, Bic Cartoon and CCE crew, Lil Eazy, and others to promote the project. Look for some pics here soon. After that they checked out some pre-mastered footage for Daz's new upcoming video, "Gangsta Shits" which was promoted in the booklet of Dillinger & Young Gotti. So be on the lookout for that too. Daz has been a big part of the Westcoast resurgence and that says a lot for his efforts, because he has been doin the damn thang on an independent scale. In relation to the above story, the Lil E Films DVD might end up as a joint venture between Lil E/DPG Records as far as labels go. That's the news for now from The Homie Cartoon.

Check out some new tunes from some of the West's most underrated artists. Both tracks are from the Uninvited Guests Soundtrack, which came out in February this year. The first track is by Phats Bossi (you might remember him from the song Radio with Kurupt). The song was produced & written by Dr. Dre & Warren G and is called Through The Rain. The second song is by Boss Hogg. The songs called Fleetwood Mac. They both Hot, so check em out. Thanx to Kev'n for the songs, good lookn out, boy. Thats all from us. Peace..lilJermaine

SUp Yall, Ice Cube's New 'Friday Part 3' Movie Greenlighted:
New Line Cinema has given Ice Cube the green light for a third installment of the rapper-turned-actor's "Friday" series of movies, according to The Hollywood Reporter. "Friday After Next," which follows 1995's "Friday" and last year's "Next Friday," will begin production in the fall with an eye on a Thanksgiving 2002 release.
Cube -- who wrote the script and will produce the project with Matt Alvarez through their Cube Vision production company -- will reprise his role as Craig Jones. Mike Epps (Day-Day Jones), Don "D.C." Curry (Uncle Elroy Jones), and John Witherspoon (Mr. Jones) will all be back for the third go around. A director has not yet been attached.
Comedian Chris Tucker, star of the new Rush Hour 2, recently explained to a New York radio station why he hasn't and will not participate in any of the Friday sequels. Tucker said that he wasn't comfortable with being associated with the marijuana-smoking Smokey character he played in Friday. Tucker, who doesn't use drugs, said that as an adult, the character was just too far removed from who he is. Tucker's explanation dispelled the popular notion that Ice Cube and New Line Cinema were not willing to pay the actor his $20 million asking price.
While "Next Friday" took the Jones clan out of the ghetto thanks to Day-Day's lottery win, the new film will see Craig and Day-Day as roommates back in the hood, holding down jobs as strip mall security guards. The story is set across two days -- Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. source Launch.com

BigCartoon is designin the covers for the DVD and also chosin the material for the DVD. Hes currently checkin the stuff to put on the DVD. So far they got a footage of the making of the 'Foe Tha E' video, the first ever appearance of Bone Thugs N Harmony. Then they got a Bone Thugs footage at the House Of Blues doin an Eazy E Tribute. They performed all the classic tracks from 1999. Another thing is the the Eazy E burial with Lil E dropping the first shovel of dirt on a 24K gold casket containing his father E, followed by Lil Derick, E's second oldest, doing the same with the help of Yella. Then you got Kokane's first public performance at the first ever 92.3 KKBT Summer Jam sponsored by Eazy and more appearances by Blue Rag, Treach, Ice T, NWA & more. Layzie Bone has stated he will be down to work on the project, as apparently have members of the DPGC clique including Snoop Dogg. The project apparently will be on both VHS and DVD with both items having different bonus footages. Then...shortly after the work on the Eazy E DVD is finished, they will start on the next project tentativley titled "5 Days with Daz & Kurupt". That sounds tight, no info on this yet but we'll keep ya posted.

Tha Gang will release their debut album next year on DPG Records. The group consists of Daz, Blue RAG, KAM and Threat. The album called 'The Streets Aint Safe No More' will have 17 songs. The official DPG Records website has a tentative album cover. Visit DPG Records Online for more info.
