Kanye West in Denial of Mother's Death

Kanye West is devastated and seemingly "in denial" after a botched plastic surgery likely led to the sudden death of his beloved mother, friends told the Daily News.

The rapper, who has been in Europe on tour with his album "Graduation," needed several days to gather the strength to fly back to the U.S., family friends said.

Adding to the tragedy, a friend says, the Grammy-winning rapper didn't think his mom, Donda West, needed any physical improvement - much less radical cosmetic surgery.

"I don't think Kanye was aware Donda was getting the surgery, or certainly the extent of it," a family friend said. "He loved and supported her just the way she was. He thought she was beautiful."

Cam'ron Is Back...Addressing Everything

Cam'ron has resurfaced and Miss info caught up with the Harlem Diplomat and this is what he had to say.

------------------------

I still haven’t spoken to Jim. But Jim ran with me for over 10 yrs, he worked hard, and I wish him the best of luck. Everybody thinks I’m mad at Jim. Why am I mad? I told people for years that Jimmy was gonna be a star. So its better on my resume…I wish him the best. The only thing is, him being with 50, I can’t really run with that. Hang out with who you want to hang out…but me, I can’t really do nothing like that.

(What did you think when 50 brought Jimmy and Juelz onstage with him to perform “Ballin’?”)

Actually, that was a great move for 50. First, he had Jim and Jeelz, then he brought out Remy Ma and J-Hood, then I even saw Whoo kid on TV with Gillie the Kid goin’ at Lil Wayne. I commend him for that. You’re really snatching a person from they own set. And then you also are seeing these n—as’ potential…

(do you address this on Public Enemy #1)

I make a comment but I keep it moving. On the first joint, I talk for like 6 minutes. I still get at 50. The Tru Life shit. I clear that shit up. And I also address the NYPD, the Intel squad…How they dragged me in during the whole Jay-Z and 50 Cent beef and tried to get me to talk about them….all that shit.

Fashion: Hiroshi Fujiwara Slams BAPE and the American Suburbs

In an interview with Portfolio Hiroshi Fujiwara bad mouths Nigo of Bathing Ape.

“I just wonder how he feels when he sees ugly people wearing his clothes. If you go to the countryside in America and people are wearing Bathing Ape, that’s not very cool. I thought he was more like us, but he changed.” -Hiroshi Fujiwara

Now why go after us (Americans) in your opinion about Nigo and his Bathing Ape line... Now what Hiroshi didnt think is that one of Nike's Or Levi's Intern is going to read this and give it to the higher ups of the company and then there will be no more collaboration with him!. Hiroshi should think before he actually opens his big mouth!...Like my cousin josh said "He should shut the F up before we Tommy Hilfifer his ass!!!"

Nas Explains Controversial Album Title

You see what you guys started over at FOX... I agree 100% with Nas on this one!

"I’m talking to the streets. Stay out of our business. You ain’t got no business worrying about what the word ‘nigger’ is or acting like you know what my album is about without talking to me. Whether you in the NAACP or you Jesse Jackson. I respect all of them … I just want them to know: Never fall victim to Fox. Never fall victim to the sh– they do. What they do is try to hurry up and get you on the phone and try to get you to talk about something you might not know about yet.

"If Cornell West was making an album called Nigger, they would know he’s got something intellectual to say," Nas continued. "To think I’m gonna say something that’s not intellectual is calling me a nigger, and to be called a nigger by Jesse Jackson and the NAACP is counterproductive, counter-revolutionary."
