Rapper Yung Joc is officially free from any contractual obligations with his former label Block Entertainment. The Atlanta based rapper confirmed this with our friends over at Baller Status and stated wasn’t allowed to discuss any issues dealing with Block Entertainment to press due to a clause in one of the terms of his release.
“I just got my release and one of the terms of the release was a defamation clause, so honestly, I can’t really talk about it too much.” Yung said. “I’ve been released, severed the business ties. May God bless them and their regime, but I’m doing my own thing now.”
As far as future endeavors, Joc is in the midst of talking with a few other labels working out other contract agreements, though he wouldn’t drop any names.
The biggest names in hip-hop entertainment hit up the 2009 BET Hip-Hop awards, held in Atlanta, GA this past weekend. Folks like Soulja Boy, Gucci Mane, Monica, Tiny & Toya, Pretty Ricky, Shawty Lo, Plies, Rick Ross and more all walked the red carpet before making their way into the building to enjoy the show, which will air on BET Tuesday, October 27th at 8/7c.
And the drama between rapper Yung Joc and Diddy’s Bad Boy record label continues…
In an exclusive interview with Rolling Out, Joc is speaking on why he hasn’t come out with an album yet, among other things. The Bad Boy recording artist first showed that he wasn’t happy with his label earlier this year because of unpaid royalties and a lack of promotion. He also publicly revealed that he had plans on filing a lawsuit against Diddy’s Bad Boy label and Block Entertainment.
“Honestly, there is no current situation with Bad Boy right now,” the rapper said. “We’ve been in talks of me being possibly released. I just don’t think at the present time that regime is the right outfit for me at the moment, considering I work very hard as an artist and I’m still in the position where I’m not able to put out my music because of some conflicts of interest…”

COMMON & T-PAIN GIVE EACH OTHER DAP ON THE RED CARPET AT THE 2008 BET HIP-HOP AWARDS
ATLANTA // SATURDAY, OCTOBER 18TH 2008 »
AIRDATE: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 23RD 2008 ON BET @ 8 PM EST. The 2008 BET HIp-Hop Awards went down in Atlanta over the weekend, and here you can check out the photos from the red carpet. If you haven’t heard yet, Katt Williams was nixed from his hosting duties, and T-Pain filled in for the comedian at the last minute. BET made up some bogus story talking about how Katt bet T-Pain he couldn’t beat him in a break dance battle, and how Katt’s hosting duties were up for grabs to whoever won. It later came to light that Williams had been arrested on the morning of the show. Sound familiar, anyone? *Cough* T.I. *cough* got arrested *cough* last year *cough* and he was *cough* supposed to perform. I’m just saying…
Anyway, follow the break to check out photos of Ciara, T.I., Flo Rida, Rick Ross, and more all on the red carpet at the ‘08 BET HIp-Hop awards.
Rumors have began to spread regarding rapper Yung Joc’s child support payments. Joc cleared up the allegations live on the radio via Atlanta’s popular V-103 station this past Monday (Aug. 18th) stating that he was, in fact, up-to-date with child support payments to his baby mama, Fatimah Jester. But a problem recently arose which caused a temporary delay with the payments, so basically homegirl made a big deal about the situation not considering the fact that what was going on wasn’t Joc’s fault.
“I never missed a payment,” Joc said during the radio interview. “I don’t pay it directly to her; I pay it through [the Georgia Department of Resources Office of Child Support Services]. My banker wires the funds to DHR; they wire the funds right to her account. However long that takes, she needs to discuss that with them, and not put me out there bad like that.”
It’s this new group from Chicago named Hot Stylz. I thought Chicago was the only people that knew about this group! The name of Hot Stylz’s new single is called “Lookin’ Boy” featuring Yung Joc. It’s kinda hard to explain but in Chi-town when you just talking about somebody for about a good 10-15 minutes we call it a “roasting session” and we also called it “heating”. It’s fun and it mad funny! You just say a lot of stuff that most of the time don’t even make sense. Check out the video to get a concept.
Here is another T2W video premiere. David Banner’s second single, “Get Like Me” featuring Yung Joc & Chris Brown. David Banner’s upcoming album, The Greatest Story Ever Told, will be in stores June 3rd.
