Lil Wayne Drops The Theme Song For Skip Bayless' New FS1 Show "Undisputed"
Listen to a snippet of "No Mercy" the new "Undisputed" theme song.
Skip Bayless' new show on Fox Sports 1, "Undisputed" will kick off next Tuesday, September 6th, at 9:30am EST and it will feature the musical stylings of Skip's long time pal, Lil Wayne.
"Lil Wayne has been a friend and frequent guest on my show," he said, "and I’ve told him how honored I am to have such a legend create such a great song for our new show."
Billboard just recently announced that Fox Sports 1 commissioned Lil Wayne to come up with the theme song for "Undisputed," and that Weezy will be making an appearance on the premiere episode next week.
The president of Jingle Punks, Jared Gutstadt, who wrote and produced the track for Wayne, told Billboard;
“Knowing that Fox Sports is about to launch one of the biggest sports debate shows of all time, it’s only fitting that they partnered Jingle Punks with the biggest and most respected rapper of all time. It was absolutely astounding to see what Lil Wayne was able to bring to the table on this song."
Skip will be joined by co-host Shannon Sharpe as well as sports radio host, Joy Taylor who will be mediating the debates between the two outspoken personalities on FS1.
Ray J Says Chris Brown's Arrest Is "Wrong And Sad"
"I can't say what's truthful or not because I've never seen that happen and I was right there."
On Tuesday, a long police standoff at Chris Brown's L.A. home following reports that he had pulled a gun on a woman ended with the singer being arrested. Brown was released on $250,000 bail today, and while he has yet to make a statement following his arrest, his lawyer has stressed that the "allegations against him are demonstrably false," while Ray J, who was present at the time of the alleged threat, has also spoken up on the events.
"My job is to just say that Chris is 100... meaning he's a good dude," Ray J told Entertainment Tonight, going on to question alleged victim Baylee Curran's story. "I think it was wrong and sad, and it hurts my feelings that you work so hard to try to get better, and a small little length of a story that you don't even know is even real or not can affect you this much without even getting the facts."
However, Ray J was hesitant to go on record to dispute Curran's claims that Brown pulled a gun on her, before a car began to follow her when she left the home. "I can't say what's truthful or not because I've never seen that happen and I was right there... So I don't want to comment." Later on, he told the host, "Everything you're saying is ridiculous to me."

Lil Wayne's Closes Lil Weezyana Fest By Yelling "Fuck Cash Money"
Lil Wayne disses Cash Money at Lil Weezyana fest.
While Birdman has expressed interest in repairing his relationship with Lil Wayne, possibly because he is the defendant in Wayne's outstanding $51 million lawsuit against Cash Money, it is quite apparent that Wayne doesn't feel the same way.
At the end of his performance at this weekend's Lil Weezyana Fest in New Orleans, Wayne shared a parting message with the crowd. “Before I get out this motherfucker," he said, “I want to say three more important words: fuck Cash Money.”
This is not the first time Wayne has publicly uttered these words or some variant. His lawsuit against Cash Money is currently on hold, and he seems quite eager to get on with it so he can finally exact on the label to whom he is still signed.

Donald Glover Might Play Young Lando Calrissian In Upcoming Star Wars Movie
The studio wants to cast Donald Glover as Lando Calrissian in the upcoming Han Solo movie.
After watching Marvel make a fortune by giving each of its extensive cast of superheroes their own movie, Lucasfilms is now doing the same with Star Wars. In addition to Episodes 7-9, they are producing a Han Solo spinoff currently scheduled for a May 2018 release. They are in the process of casting the film, and according to BirthMoviesDeath, their first choice for young Lando Calrissian is none other than Donald Glover.
As you might recall, Billy Dee Williams aka Gale Sayers portrayed Calrissian in the first Star Wars trilogy. Calrissian was a former pilot and administrator of Cloud City who ultimately assisted the Rebel Alliance in their quest to overthrow Imperial Forces.
Glover as Calrissian is far from a done deal, but intriguing to consider. His FX show "Atlanta" premieres on September 6th.

DJ Mustard & YG are teaming up for the joint mixtape "400 Summers."
It looks like DJ Mustard & YG are officially putting the past behind them. On Wednesday, the two West Coast natives took to their socials to announce a joint project called 400 Summers.

Young Buck Reportedly Sentenced To 7 Months In Prison
Young Buck is said to have violated the conditions of his August release.
After being released from jail on August 1st, Young Buck has been sentenced to 7 months in prison after violating the conditions of his release, according to Nashville Scene.
The rapper was arrested in July after allegedly kicking down his then-girlfriend's door and threatening to burn her house down, itself a violation of previous conditions from 2013 charges. After serving jail time for that incident, he was released at the beginning of August on the condition that he would not have any contact -- direct or indirect -- with the woman he threatened, but after a reported 100 or more attempts to get in touch with her, he has been hit with a 7-month prison sentence.
An excerpt from the U.S. Attorney's office in reference to Buck's sentencing can be found below.
On July 20, 2016, another of Brown’s ex-girlfriends obtained an Ex Parte Order of Protection in state court and arrest warrants were issued against Brown based on an incident in which Brown wanted to get certain property out of that woman’s house and was told that the property was not there. He then kicked in the door of the residence and threatened that woman. Brown was arrested for violating his supervision, and was detained pending a detention hearing. After that hearing, the federal magistrate determined Brown could be released pending the final hearing on this incident and the previous March 2016 incident, but ordered Brown not to have any direct or indirect contact with this victim. Brown was released under those conditions on August 1, 2016.
After being released on those conditions, Brown violated the conditions of his release by contacting and attempting to contact that woman over 100 times in violation of the Magistrate’s release order.
