Judging by this picture alone (and the fact that he has like 10 kids by 20 different women) the ladies love Lil Wayne! He should think about changing his name to LL Cool D (LOL). Anyway, here are more pics of Young Money on the set of their new “Bedrock” music video, which features R&B singer Lloyd on the hook.

Check out more pics (and a behind the scenes video) after the break!

A Florida man named Thomas Marasciullo filed a copyright infringement lawsuit Friday (Oct 31) in a Manhattan federal court against rappers Lil Wayne and Birdman. The suit was also filed against their record label and various music distribution outlets.

Marasciullo is looking for recognition in a voice over that Wayne used back in 2006. The lawsuit against Cash Money states that Thomas recorded some Italian styled word arrangements and Lil’ Wayne and Birdman used them without permission (or pay) on a track entitled “Respect.”

AP reports: “The gold-selling “Like Father, Like Son” hit the top of the R&B/hip-hop album chart. Several short tracks that Marasciullo says he wrote, recorded and copyrighted — including “Loyalty” and “Respect” — feature a man’s voice delivering mob-movie-flavored repartee.

Among the remarks, from “Loyalty”: “The main name in this game is respect and loyalty. Family is a big thing. When we do this kind of business, everything is with respect.” The lawsuit says Marasciullo’s recordings were used in four tracks on that album and five on “5 (Star) Stunna.”

Baby aka “Birdman” and Lil Wayne have a strange relationship. A VERY strange relationship. Granted, Baby did take Wayne as a son in back in the day but that’s more than beside the point. A photo of the two of them greeting each other by kissing in the mouth leaked to the ‘net a couple of years back and ever since, people have been looking at them like Twitter’s default avatar … o_O.

But do you think either of them give a damn? Nope, not at all. In a recent radio interview with Tim Westwood, Birdman attempted to justify the kiss bringing up that Lil Wayne “is is son,” and he said he’d do it again. And again, and again, and again. Because that’s what father and son do every time they see each other. Right?

A former Cash Money Records producer named Tristan “T Mix” Jones is suing the label for over $2 million, claiming that he’s owed that much from them for his work with several of their artists including Birdman and their biggest artist, Lil Wayne.

In a federal lawsuit, Jones claims he signed an exclusive production contract with Cash Money Records in November 2005. Between 2005 and 2007, Cash Money allegedly released more than 40 master recordings produced by Jones on hit albums such as “5 * Stunna,” “Like Father Like Son,” “Fast Money,” and “Tha Carter II.”

In exchange for Jones’ exclusive production services, Jones says Cash Money promised to pay production royalties on the suggested retail list price. Cash Money has sold well over 3 million album copies in the United States and Canada alone, Jones claims, and has received at least $30 million from his recordings. Jones says Cash Money owes him at least $2.25 million, but has paid him only about $187,000. Jones seeks damages for breach of contract in Federal Court. He is represented by Robert Johnston of Fowler, Rodriguez.

This news comes shortly after reports of Lil’ Wayne’s forthcoming album, The Rebirth, being pushed back or possibly being dropped all together.

MIAMI // TUESDAY, OCTOBER 7TH 2008 » I’m gonna do something different, and go against the norm. I’m not gonna make any jokes about Lil’ Wayne & Baby and their highly disturbing “relationship” as father and son. But I am gonna remind you that they kiss each other in the mouth. No seriously … they do. Anyway, back to the subject at hand. Dwayne celebrated his 26th g’day in Miami Tuesday night, and guess what his “daddy” gave him as a gift? $1,000,000. We’re in the middle of recession and folks are handing out cash like it’s candy. Can someone please help me understand this? More flicks from the shindig after the break.

MIAMI, FLORIDA // SATURDAY, JUNE 28TH 2008 » On Saturday I had the opportunity to attend the “South Florida Summer Fest 2008” Concert featuring Birdman, DJ Khaled, Ace, Colby O’donis, Casley, Keyshia Cole, Akon, Lil’ Wayne and More live from The BankAtlantic Center. The show started at exactly 7:00 PM with opening acts Selena Serrano, S.O.U.R.C.E International Clique, Michelle Del Amore, Wyneter Gordon, and a bunch of local artists performing their radio hits like Grindmode’s “I’m so “High” and “Ecstasy“, Ball Greezy’s “Shone”, Colby O’Donis’ “What you got“, and last but not least Casely (if you think Chris Brown, Usher and Ne-Yo imitate MJ alot, then you haven’t seen Casely live!) who performed really well, but WAY too long for an opening act, sang about 4 or 5 songs from his upcoming album 1985 including his radio hit “Emotional“.

PHOTOS: INF » Singer Beyonce, who “secretly” got married to Jay-Z over the weekend decided to walk out of the house looking like a Dominatrix (a sexy one, of course!) dressed in black from head to toe Tuesday (Apr. 8th). Whenever these two get a chance to honeymoon it up, I’m sure they’re gonna have some “fun!” And I assume she’s wearing the gloves to cover up her *ahem* wedding ring? Anyway, if she is indeed pregnant, she must be only a week or two ’cause I see no baby bump what-so-ever. And that jacket is a little tight … so, yeah.

Check out photos of Lil’ Wayne, Janet Jackson, and Usher, and more after the cut!

Weezy’s daddy was arrested last week for allegedly possessing marijuana and is facing a number of charges relating to possible gun offences. The “5 Star Stunna” [sorry y'all I had to, lol] was among 16 people detained in Kingsport, Tennesse last Tuesday. He was traveling in an RV when he was stopped by police for improperly changing lanes. A search of the vehicle revealed large amounts of marijuana. Baby’s wife, brother, and 13 other people were each charged with possession of the drug. Police also allegedly found several guns in the vehicle, but currently no charges relating to the find have been filed.

Now, back to this wife… It’s rumored that the girl pictured above (his wife) is only 18 years old, and her name is Brittany Williams. Looks like somebody’s been taking some pages from R Kelly’s statutory book of romance, eh? Head on over to TMZ to peep photos of the 14 other people who arrested along with Birdman and his wife. That must’ve been one hella packed RV!

Here’s Birdman’s latest, “100 Million,” which features Rick Ross, Dre, Young Jeezy & Lil Wayne, off of his new album, “5 Star Stunna” – due in stores December 11th. Now with that said, I’m ready for something … “new” from this guy. I mean really, hearing him talking about all the money he has starts to get old after what … 5, 6, 7 years??? Anyone with me? Don’t tell me I’m alone with this one…

Here’s something nice someone came up with over at one of my favorite websites in the whole wide world – CRUNK & DISORDERLY.

“I am shocked that Ebony magazine did not include this couple in their annual black love issue. These two will last longer than Whitney And Bobby.” — Drewfizzle

LOL, you can’t do anything but laugh, nod your head, and agree…
