The straight dope on what's going on in Hip-Hop, Media and Entertainment

Aug 15, 2004

The Beatnuts weren’t amused when JLo lifted the same beat that the duo used on Watch Out Now for her hit Jenny From The Block. Recently Psycho Les and Juju has been very vocal in magazines and on their soon to be released 7th album entitled Milk Me.On the track Confused Rappers Juju delivers a verbal spanking "you know you haven’t been to the block for a minute/getting all the little Latin girls to bite/when you really can’t sing and your no Salma Hayek."

An industry insider, business partner and close friend of the Actress/entertainer said that Jenny has had enough. "She has been working hard on a new album and decided to retaliate. This album will have more attitude than you are use to". According to this contact Jlo has recruited up and coming beatsmith Alchemist to lay the track down. There will be a couple of MCs that will drop heat on the track with only Jadakiss confirmed. Word is that there is an audio drop of Pun ripping into The Beatnuts days before his death that will be used in this song. "We even got Christopher exposing these guys for what they truly are. Liza(Rios) gave us this dat after she heard these guys bad mouthing Jenny. She said it was kept a secret due to her husbands’ death. That woman has a heart of gold."

Is this just a way for Jennifer Lopez to capitalize on the "beef" trend to up her record sales? "Jenny isn’t looking to sell her album based on this squabble. She has been working hard on this album for a little while now and she doesn’t want that to be overshadowed by this." We shall see.
