The south side of Atlanta and Richmond, CA connect as Tez McClain and Erk Tha Jerk (of “Right Here” fame) go in over an LT mOE (Trey Songz, Ludacris) beat for a potential smash. “Right Now” finds Erk and Tez in full club mode, but as fans have come to expect from emcees of their caliber, they drop a few lyrical gems along the way. The chemistry was so on point during the recording process that they are thinking about doing a full collaborative mixtape in the near future.

Yea Nardwuar is shitting on these blogs when it comes to interviewing artists. #Salute

Most of the hip-hop world has already heard about it, but if not, Tyga was involved in a shooting in Omaha, Nebraska on Monday night (March 19) … after becoming irate with a few members at his show when they continued to throw debris on stage.

The YMCMB rapper was angry over the disrespectful acts, and snapped, ultimately challenging the concertgoers to “see him outside” after he finished his performance.

While a physical altercation never took place, the unnamed members of the audience watched Tyga and his entourage exit the venue and followed their vehicles when they left, and eventually opened fire.

A bus and trailer was hit at least 15 times, leaving Tyga’s protege Honey Cocaine, along with one other, hit with gunshot wounds. Fortunately, both victims were treated for non-life-threatening injuries and are now ok.

The Los Angeles-bred rapper called into Los Angeles’ Power 106 radio show Wednesday afternoon (March 21) to explain what happened.

During the interview, he tells radio personality Yesi Ortiz that the shooting was the result of a on-going situation that started earlier in the day. Apparently, the rowdy members of the audience were local artists who were supposed to open for Tyga, but didn’t.

“This is something that doesn’t happen. These aren’t fans,” Tyga revealed. “This situation escalated because I wanted to do the show. I was dealing with the same people from the beginning of the day, before the show even started. Like they wanted to cancel the show — it was just a bunch of drama going on already. That was like the fourth situation.

“It was some people that was supposed to perform, like some local opening acts. I told them they couldn’t perform, because it’s a tour. I don’t want no opening acts performing .. Like I said, those weren’t fans.”

MMG AGENT: SCOTTY BOI

From DJ Kayslay on SHADE45 to DJ Khaled’s radio show on Miami’s WEDR 99 Jamz, there’s an MMG artist that goes by Scotty Boi that has radio and Internet talking about his hot new record “Lawyer Fee’s” feat. Rick Ross and French Montana. On a music label roster that’s long with talent Scotty Boi is on a path to grab the attention of many in the same accord like label mates Wale and Meek Mill. Check out our interview with the Haitian Mafia representative as he talks Rick Ross, Hip-Hop, MMG and the future.

So for those that don’t know, who is Scotty Boi?

Scotty Boi is a movement. Scotty Boi is an artist. Scotty Boi is soon to be a household name. I’m a young ambitious brotha with a Haitian background, just trying to do the damn thing by making good music
Tell us about where the name came from?
My real name is Scott. I didn’t want to be like every artist in the game with an AKA. I’ve been everywhere and everybody knows me by Scott. This is starting back to when I was a youth in the game, so I figured I’d stick to the script and stay original. Therefore, you got something to reference back to.

You’re coming out of the Miami area. Tell us about your start and how you got into Hip-Hop?

Right now I’m signed with Maybach Music Group. You know it’s one of the biggest labels in the game right now. Shout out to the big homie Ricky Rozay. Before that, I had been doing my own thing. I’m Haitian and Hip-Hop was heavy in my household because of my older brother. May he rest in peace… Jerry. He was a real Hip-Hop fanatic while back in the ‘80s. He had the boombox with the lights around the speaker and all kinds of cassettes. My cousins Gino and Kano too were big into Hip-Hop, so I just followed in their footsteps. Hip-Hop for us then and now is our culture. It ain’t just about the music. It’s a way of life, so early in life that’s what I was exposed to.

Can you touch on your relationship with Rick Ross?

As far as the big homie, we go way back. We like family. You feel what I’m saying. It’s like a cousin, big brotha type of thing. We always been around each other, even before he got on. A lot of the things he was doing early in his career served a big example for me. He’s helped play a major part in what I’m doing right now. He’s a movement and not many people from Miami have taken it to the level that he took it and I admire that about him. He’s very ambitious and he’s real talented, so I can’t deliver anything less than greatness.

I understand that he asked you to join the label. How did it make you feel to get that invitation?

I was honored. I felt like it was a privilege because he could have stepped to anybody. For a dude like me to get an opportunity like that, it put such a jumpstart in my career. I’ve had to make the best of it and really go in because I don’t like to be and won’t be a liability. I hold my own weight, I do my thing, I deliver good music and keep focused on why I was chosen in the beginning.

What’s the deal with Haitian Mafia?
