Jadakiss is back and don’t expect anyone to stop him. This song, this beat, those verses, that sample – they’re all THE TRUTH. Hopefully, this upcoming album does good for Jada.

“I love the camera almost as much as I love food. Yes honey my passion for food can breath taking. I make sure to keep this 36-24-38 frame nourished. I’m pretty well rounded, strong minded, I like to be in control in almost everything with the exception of the bedroom…” – Ashalee Albar

According to the Chicago Sun Times, Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade filed a libel lawsuit Wednesday against his estranged wife and her attorneys for claiming in a divorce filing that Wade had an adulterous affair and gave her a sexually transmitted disease. Wade, a Chicago native, claims Siohvaughn Wade damaged his reputation by knowingly making those false claims, which became public in media reports only to be later withdrawn from their divorce filing, according to documents filed in Cook County Circuit Court. Wade is seeking more than $200,000 in damages. - Words by The Sun Times

This is REALLY dope. One of the artists over at MSG created this stencil last year for local shop, Culture Kings. They’re actually really cool.
Check out Culture Kings over at 4300 NE 2nd AVE – Miami, FL 33137. (305) 573-2399. On a sidenote, they just got in a fresh shipment of Supra’s, so make sure you go over there ready to cop somethin’.

I’m glad I ran into this post on Fader today. NYC artist, Posterboy is a manipulator of sorts. He basically takes popular ads that the everyday New Yorker sees everyday within the subway system and turns into works of art by mix and matching different parts of different posters amoung one another. Controversy has sparked up as of recent (google: “posterboy moma” and you’ll see the articles), but it doesn’t change the fact that this kind of art-tactic is original and a bit exciting. Video of him in action after the jump…

I saw this posted by Jacob over at the New Times. And wow, what a gem. This is throwback footage of Bob Marley & The Wailers during a recording session at Criteria Studios (which is now The Hit Factory) located in North Miami Beach. This was recorded on September 14, 1980.

According to IceDotCom, T-Pain and Kanye have a little more in common than they’re autotune practices. Apparently , Kanyeezy’s new girl Amber Rose is alledgedly a former stripper from Mount Vernon, NY. Kanyeezy has been seen with her recently and quite openly in New York and in London for a series of recent fashion shows that took place over the last week. Ye hasn’t been shy with letting the world see his new dimepice. Well, apparently its being reported that Ms. Rose goes by the name ”Paris” at famed Sues Rendezvous strip club. - IDC

Karina Flores, model from Brazil. She can’t speak a word of English, but she is amazingly beautiful. She’s actually trying to break into the American market soon enough. But in the meanwhile, I think she’s doing quite allright where she’s at. More photos and a behind-the-scenes video below after the jump…

Simple and to the point, these all new white-on-white-with-black-stripe Supra’s are definitely dope and stylish. And by just being slightly over $100, you can’t beat the price of these. Available at Supra retailers everywhere.

Its award week on The305.com, and in the category of “Pulling In As Many Favors As You Can For Your Video” award, Jamie Foxx slams on the competition with the video for “Blame It”. Take a look at this line-up…
Cameos from Ron Howard, Quincy Jones, Samuel L. Jackson, Forest Whitaker, Jake Gyllenhaal, Cedric The Entertainer, Morris Chestnut, Clifton Powell, Alex Thomas, Tatyana Ali, Bill Bellamy, and more.
But seriously, its a dope video…and if you’re into 106 & Park, get your vote on and get it on the countdown!

Spotted this over at Rakontur, you know, the makers of 305 classic, Cocaine Cowboys. I guess, Travis McCoy (current member of Gym Class Heroes, and former boyfriend of Katy Perry) was chillin’ with Mickey Munday over at the Magic Convention in Las Vegas…
Travis writes in his blog the following:
This is for my brothers COOL and Dre, who put me up on the movie COCAINE COWBOYS, a documentary about Miami’s cocaine epidemic in the 70’s and 80s’, Killer film btw. This is Me and the notorious “Fly Guy”, The REAL Mickey Munday.

Mentioned in last night’s Obama speech to Congress…Miami banker, Leonard Abess Jr., is having the best week ever!

I was just checking our little web stats tracker and saw that the number 1 search term keywords that bring in people to The305.Com from Google Search is….”Amber Rose” and a few different variations of it.
A couple weeks ago we posted photos of Amber Rose appearing in the last issue of Smooth Magazine and since then, Amber-lovers have flocked to The305.Com to see a glimpse of this blond bombshell who is rumored and pretty much confirmed to be Kanye’s current love interest.
Either way, thanks Google. And thank YOU Amber!
Yo, this video is filled with so many 305 Honeys its not even funny. It kicks off immediately with the incredibly voluptuous Sagia and pretty much is a 100 percent models and bottles party till the video ends. Good lord, I should’ve been there…
Oh yeah, Flo and P do their thing also…just thought I’d mention that as well.

Promo and press photos of Rick Ross. I don’t know who the photographer is, but I assume its Jonathan Mannion since that’s who did Ross’ last set of album promo shots.

Charlie Hustle’s “Go Hard” has been blowing up on the radio as of late. Don’t get it confused with Khaled’s joint, this is a completely different and original song – and its foe’ da ladies. Listen below…

For this edition of Taste Tuesdays, I have to introduce you to People’s Bar-B-Que aka the People’s Drugstore & BBQ over in Downtown Miami/Overtown. I was introduced to this spot by my homie Danny from over at Shoe Gallery while doing a photo project with him (photo above) and let me tell you, the food is amazing. Like…ridiculously amazing. Its authentic soul food and barbeque that will definitely get you hooked as soon as you try it.
My recommendation is their popular BBQ Ribs with Pigeon Peas & Rice, their Macaroni & Cheese, which all comes with thier signature toasted cornbread. Off the chain and its less than $9 for the above plate. They’re open Monday through Saturday for lunch and dinner, address is below…

The Nike Air 1/2 Cent Penny has been in the talks of many as of late and rightfully so. Its a hot sneaker. Trust me when I say that everyone is going to be trying to get their hands on these. And if you’re lucky enough to be in Miami, you can have your chance at buying a pair this Saturday February 28th at Shoe Gallery in Downtown Miami. $190 and they are yours. However, get there early because these will surely sell out very quickly.

LOL @ him getting bugged out at the iChat features…
Via the Riptide, apparently Michael Jordan and his beautiful 30 year-old Cuban girlfriend Yvette Prieto have bought a 3-bedroom house in Kendall for $281,000. Something really doesn’t seem right about it though because its in a relatively ”regular” neighborhood, just west of The Hammocks. So most likely, its some kind of purchase for her or a family member or a friend. The Post mentioned that Prieto had some credit problems and filed for bankruptcy in 2002 – so maybe MJ is helping his girl out a little bit.
