When Ugk’s Pimp C first heard Project Pat’s 2002 song “Choose U,” he was immediately taken by the beat. The track samples Willie Hutch’s soulful “I Choose You,” and Pimp C couldn’t believe it wasn’t a hit.

When Ugk got back into the studio to work on their 2007 album Underground Kingz, they wanted to see if they could make their own song using the same beat. They enlisted Three 6 Mafia’s Juicy J (Project Pat’s little brother) and DJ Paul to produce for them, and...

Bone Thugs-n-Harmony rapper Krayzie Bone has shared an update from the hospital, where he has spent the last nine days being treated for a health emergency. The musician born Anthony Henderson was reportedly hospitalized in late September for complications related to sarcoidosis, an inflammatory disease, which was compounded by a leaking artery inside of his lungs that required emergency surgery.

Rapper Gangsta Boo’s cause of death has finally been revealed.

The autopsy report of the Three 6 Mafia member shows a mix of drugs in her body at death – fentanyl, cocaine and alcohol.

The pioneer hip-hop artist, whose real name is Lola Mitchell, was found unconscious on New Year’s Day this year in a residence, and soon was announced dead. The cause of death was never publicly released until now.

Boo was 43 years old, with almost 30 years of career as a rapper.

She joined Three 6 Mafia when she was 14 and became prominent among members DJ Paul, Lord Infamous (who died at 40), Crunchy Black and Koopsta Knicca (who died at 40).

Her death from a fentanyl overdose comes as yet another high-profile loss from the drug in recent months, including former Eight Is Enough star Adam Rich.

In the Aughts, Killer Mike was a fiery maelstrom, the South’s answer to Ice Cube, and an Atlanta polemicist comfortable with both dope-boy fantasies and bruising Black politics. But it’s been eleven years since R.A.P. Music, a classic pairing with rapper/producer El-p that inspired the two to form the world-conquering duo Run the Jewels. On his sixth album, Michael, the rapper focuses on his personal life, particularly his late mother and grandmother, with uncharacteristic empathy and restraint, even as he continues to utilize his uniquely brusque vocal style.

Lola Mitchell – better known as Southern female rapper and former Three 6 Mafia member Gangsta Boo, died on Sunday.

Boo was found dead around 4 p.m. on Sunday afternoon. The cause of her death has not been publicly released.

Her death was reported by Fox 13 Memphis and Wreg Memphis.

According to Fox 13, Boo – whose birth name was Lola Mitchell – was found dead around 4 p.m. on Sunday afternoon. Wreg reported that Boo’s death was confirmed by a representative. The cause of her death has not been disclosed, reports Variety.

A product of the Dirty South school of hip-hop in the 1990s, Boo’s edgy raps and frank sexuality made her an energetic Memphis counterpart to Philadelphia rapper Eve, Brooklyn’s Lil Kim and Miami’s Trina.

Like those female rappers, Boo’s start came with a prominent regional crew – ‘Three 6 Mafia’, founded by DJ Paul, Juicy J and Lord Infamous – with whom she recorded a handful of studio albums until her departure in 2002.

Killer Mike is “Talk’n That Shit!” on the rapper’s second single since reigniting his solo career after a decade with Run the Jewels.

After leading a battalion on the battlefield against an army of Nazis, secessionists, and confederates earlier this year in the video for “Run” — his first solo single in 10 years — Killer Mike returns to his native Atlanta to showcase his role as a community leader and advocate.

'Crash' movie: Ryan Phillippe. 'Crash' movie review: California tossin' and turnin' Screenwriter Paul Haggis' multiple award-winning directorial debut, Crash, is set in a Los Angeles that is part Quentin Tarantino, part Paul Thomas Anderson, part Spike Lee, part Bret Easton Ellis. Haggis' L.A. also happens to be a place with precious little in common with the Southern California metropolis located on Planet Earth. In the film, Haggis and co-screenwriter Robert Moresco tell us – or rather, scream at us – that the Angeleno boiling (definitely not melting) pot is about to explode at any moment, as Los Angeles denizens spend all their spare time hating, fearing, misunderstanding, and cheating on one another. And perhaps much of that is true, except that most of that hate, fear, misunderstanding, and cheating have absolutely nothing to do with ethnic or national differences. But not in this particular L.A., situated in some warped La...

Since its premiere at Sundance, Richard Linklater’s Boyhood has been garnering Oscar buzz and rave reviews. The film could score nominations for best picture, director, actor and more, but after submitting three songs to the Academy for consideration in the best original song category, the film could add another nomination. Two of the songs were written by Ethan Hawke, who could garner a best supporting actor nomination for his portrayal of the father. If Hawke receives a best original song nomination for one of his songs, he will join a short list of actors who have scored nominations for songs since 1994.

Both Annette O’Toole and her husband Michael McKean were nominated in 2004, for their song “A Kiss at the End of the Rainbow,” which appeared in 2003’s A Mighty Wind. Well known for her role on Smallville as Martha Kent, O’Toole didn...

Why was Three 6 Mafia member DJ Paul walking around with a Taser gun?

"I use it for personal protection," is what he allegedly told a cop when he was busted for drinking an open container of Corona beer after leaving a New York restaurant Sunday night. According to the New York Daily News, DJ Paul (née Paul Beauregard) was charged with weapons possession and public drinking. Meanwhile, TMZ reports that Beauregard was released Monday morning after pleading "not guilty" to both charges; he is due in court in December.

No word on whether the Memphis-based rapper was attempting to reenact a scene from "Hustle & Flow," the 2005 movie for which his group snagged an Oscar for Best Original Song, with "It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp."...

It's hard out there for a rapper—especially when you run afoul of the law. Three 6 Mafia member DJ Paul was arrested this past weekend in New York City after police saw him publicly carrying an open can of beer and discovered that he was toting a taser, E! News has confirmed. According to a spokeswoman for the NYPD, on Sunday at around 8:15 p.m., cops noticed the rapper (real name: Paul Beauregard) in midtown Manhattan holding an open can of Corona while standing on a street corner. They also later found a taser on him. According to the New York Daily News, when police pressed the 37-year-old on why he carried one around, he reportedly replied, "I use it for personal...

On Sunday night VH1 debuted “Famous Food,” which may be my choice for world’s worst TV show title ever. I keep picturing little club sandwiches dancing around in fabulous Oscar gowns, leaving a trail of mayonnaise and organza behind them. Anyway, watching dancing club sandwiches might be a more satisfying experience than viewing “Famous Food” unless you’re determined to find some redeeming quality in a bunch of D-list celebrities shrieking at each other about Asian fusion cuisine. Maybe you can, oh, figure out a decent drinking game. I suggest you take a slug every time DJ Paul or Juicy J...

Did you catch Famous Food on VH1 last night? You can see lots more with the behind the scenes action (the scenes that will not be shown on tv) and reality tv stars. The hot new show follows a few of your favorite and not so favorite reality tv stars (Heidi Montag, Danielle Staub, Bachelor's Jake Pavelka), Vincent Pastore from the Sopranos, musicians DJ Paul and Juicy J and Ashley Dupre, as they all work together to open a restaurant in La.

On Sunday night, Heidi Montag made her return to the reality TV world on VH1's latest entry into the genre, "Famous Food."

On the show, Montag competes against other celebrities to open up a restaurant in Los Angeles that would be called, as the title says, Famous Food. The show's cast includes famed call girl Ashley Dupre, Three 6 Mafia's DJ Paul and Juicy J, "The Bachelor" star Jake Pavelka, "Sopranos" actor Vincent Pastore and feisty "Real Housewives of New Jersey" alum Danielle Staub. What may surprise viewers, though, is which of the celebs end up becoming friends ... and then some.

"There were some shocking alliances, a little too close for some people," Montag dished to MTV News.

Heidi Montag became one of the biggest stars in "The Hills"-verse as Lauren Conrad's sometime bestie, sometime nemesis. From episode one of the MTV reality show, Heidi's bad-girl ways ruled, making her a star and tabloid fixture.

Montag has also tried her hand at various other occupations, including singer and fashion designer. She even starred with hubby Spencer Pratt on "I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!," doing her best to survive the wilderness, all with the cameras rolling, of course.

On Sunday, Heidi launches the latest phase of her ever-evolving career. On the new VH1 reality show "Famous Food," she is back on reality TV, adding a new job to her résumé: restaurateur. Montag...

Jake Pavelka doesn't mind Brad Womack being the only second-time "Bachelor" so far, since he's not sure he'd try it again.

The airline pilot and 14th-season star of the unscripted ABC series joins many other alums of the franchise, including Vienna Girardi -- with whom he had a volatile break-up postmortem on the air last July -- in the second season of "Bachelor Pad," which ABC debuts Monday, Aug. 8. Pavelka says it took him three months to decide whether to do "Pad," but it could take even longer if he's ever asked to be "The Bachelor" again.

"There was some speculation last year in the tabloids that I was begging to come back, but that was absolutely, 100-percent not true," he tells Zap2it. "I do want to find love, and I want to have a wife and kids. That's not a part of life I want to miss, and...

We've been chronicling the creation of VH1's 'Famous Food' as any self-respecting rubber-necker might do, and the latest tidbit from the trainwreck-in-the-making, an official cast photo, won't disappoint.

In what many (we) are calling a reality show apocalypse, Danielle Staub, Heidi Montag, Jake Pavelka are teaming to open a restaurant. The cast also includes Ashley Dupre (call girl to New York's former governor Eliot Spitzer, but VH1 lists her as a "singer"), Oscar-winners DJ Paul and Juicy J from the Three 6 Mafia and 'Sopranos' veteran Vincent Pastore.

The cast will have to complete tasks to get the restaurant (titled Famous Food) off the ground. Restauranteurs Mike Malin and Lonnie Moore of the Dolce Group will award one lucky "celeb" with a partnership stake in the new restaurant.

The show premieres Sun., July 10 at 10Pm and you bet your bottom we'll be watching this gem.

There's one thing about Three 6 Mafia that doesn't change: DJ Paul and Juicy J like to party.

The Memphis twosome throw down in their new clip "Shake My," from their forthcoming album Laws of Power, due November 24.

Directed by Bobby Yan, the video features Three 6 Mafia raving in a basement-like setting while Dirty Money's Kaleena croons over the Rodney Jerkins beat.

The track comes from the Oscar-winning group's first project since 2008's Last 2 Walk, and finds Paul and Juice continuing to move forward as a duo — Crunchy Black left Three 6 Mafia just before the release of that album.

Laws of Power features the Jerkins-produced single along with collaborations with Flo Rida, Gucci Mane and Keri Hilson, among others.
