Drake Speaks on Lil Wayne Dissing Jay-Z: “Whatever any other individual has to say, you have to ask the man himself.”
Drake may be ride or die for his Young Money team…..but he can’t speak for Lil Wayne‘s jab at Jay-Z in “It’s Good”.
Just Like Jadakiss, Drizzy is remaining neutral and says all he did was write a verse for the beat.

Lil Wayne Rocks Out with “How to Love” and “John” at the 2011 MTV VMAs
Lil Wayne rocked the stage — literally — as he closed out this year’s MTV Video Music Awards.
But first, the rapper, whose new album “Tha Carter IV” is in stores as of today, showed off his sensitive side with his Hip-Hop ballad “How to Love.” He then ripped his shirt off and moved into a high-energy rock-and-roll inspired performance of “John,” which he ended by smashing an electric guitar on the stage.
Chris Brown Takes Flight with his 2011 VMA Performance
Chris Brown cranked the energy level up a couple of notches at last night’s VMAs with his high-energy performance, which consisted of a medley of hits, some his own, some not.
Breezy, dressed in all white, kicked off his showing with the club-friendly “Yeah 3X” before transitioning into a dance breakdown to “Protect Ya Neck” (by Wu-Tang Clan) and Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit.” After rocking out to Nirvana, the R&B singer was hoisted in the air and flew above the crowd as he performed “Beautiful People,” a cut from his latest album “F.A.M.E.”
One of the most epic performances of the night, if you ask us!
Beyonce Puts Her “Love on Top” at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards
“Tonight I want you to stand up on your feet, I want you to feel the love that’s growing inside of me,” Beyonce said last night at the MTV VMAs as an introduction to her performance, hinting at her pregnancy, which she announced on the black carpet just an hour or so prior.
A pregnant Beyonce took the stage in heels, a black and white tuxedo, topped off with a black and purple sparkly sequined jacket, Sunday night (Aug 28) and performed “Love On Top,” a song from her platinum-selling album “4,” which was just released 2 short months ago.
After Beyonce and her voice brought down the house (sidenote: this girl can SANG!) she ended her performance by dropping her mic, opening up her jacket and rubbing her baby bump, which was met with a round of applause and a standing ovation. The cameras then cut to Kanye West and Beyonce’s husband Jay-Z, who both couldn’t contain their excitement and were seen with huge smiles on their faces as Kanye congratulated his pal.

Backed by a live band and backup singers, Mars took the stage in a sharp blue suit and performed a riveting rendition of Winehouse’s cover of the Zutons’ “Valerie,” which had everybody in the crowd, including music newcomer Adele, up and singing along to the words.
A touching tribute indeed, and no one else could have done better than Bruno!
Britney Spears Honored with Tribute Performance & Presented with Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award at the VMAs
Last night, MTV took a few minutes to pay tribute to one of Pop music’s greatest performers: Britney Spears!
Introduced by Lady Gaga — er, we we mean Jo Calderone — a group of young girls, dressed in Britney’s various iconic outfits, danced up a storm to a mash-up of Britney’s hit singles, including “Baby One More Time,” “Oops I Did It Again,” “Slave 4 U,” “Toxic,” “Hold It Against Me” and “Til the World Ends.”
Immediately after the tribute performance, Jo presented Britney with the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award and tried to seal it with a kiss, but Britney wasn’t having it. “I’ve done that already,” Britney quipped. “I don’t want Gaga to get pissed,” Jo said after Britney turned down his advance.

Everybody’s favorite rapping duo Kanye West and Jay-Z — aka “The Throne” — showed up and showed out last night (Sun. Aug 28) at the VMAs!
The pair, who just released their joint album “Watch the Throne” a few weeks ago, delivered a highly energetic rendition of their single “Otis.” The performance had so much energy, in fact, that a fan decided he’d Lil Mama the stage (around the 1:40 mark) but was swiftly removed by MTV security.
A fun performance indeed.
Adele Performs “Someone Like You” at the 2011 MTV VMAs
All soul singer Adele needed was a microphone and a piano to deliver a classy rendition of “Someone Like You” Sunday night (Aug 28) at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards.
Proving that she doesn’t need fireworks or a fancy light show to give a good performance, Adele, dressed in a sophisticated black dress, belted the notes out to her debut (platinum-selling) album 21’s second single in a performance similar to that of a jazz musician at a small, intimate nightclub.

But before sitting down at her piano to play the tune, Lady Gaga — excuse us, we mean Jo Calderone — emerged on the dark, empty stage wearing a black suit and dingy white T-shirt with slick black hair and a lit cigarette she continued to puff on as she ranted on during a nearly 4-minute opening monologue.
