The Morning Mix: Jay-Z Responds To MC Hammer’s Video Diss
:: "I didn't know that wasn't on the table for discussion!" laughed Jay, responding to Hammer's hurt feelings (and ridiculous video retort) when Jay rapped about Hammer's money woes. "I didn't know I was the first person to say that. Am I?" He adds that he wrote some great things about Hammer in his upcoming book, Decoded. Bygones, guys? [World Star Hip-Hop]

:: New Kids On The Block and Backstreet Boys (now calling themselves NKOTBSB) are co-headlining a tour together, and the boy bands' first stop will be performing at the American Music Awards together.

Mariah Carey Says “Boo”
Never let it be said that Mariah Carey isn’t afraid to make the grand gestures in order to assert her chart supremacy: She’s already released a Jermaine Dupri-produced remix of her third single from the sales disappointment Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel, “H.A.T.E. U,” that completely reconfigures the track around a bite of the Ghost Town DJs’ 1996 classic “My Boo.” It also features verses by Gucci Mane, Big Boi, and OJ Da Juiceman. Can you say “Hail Mary pass”? I guess since biting from the ’80s didn’t work out all that well, she decided to move her nostalgia up by a few years, and ride the coattails of a song that’s pretty much unassailable. Oh Mariah.

Mariah Carey Asks Gucci Mane To Give “Obsessed” Some CPR
Mariah Carey’s “Obsessed” is already floundering in its second week on the Hot 100, dipping to No. 20 this week after debuting at a not-great-for-her No. 11 seven days ago. Which is why I guess the Gucci Mane remix and a new cut of the track’s Brett Ratner-directed video have been rush-released. The new clip ditches much of the “Mariah as a man stalking Mariah as a pop star” plot in favor of Mimi reclining awkwardly on a table and lip-syncing; Gucci Mane was apparently just told to stand around and contribute the ability to wave a champagne bottle around, a kinda-awful verse, and a lot of “hooo”-ing while Mariah is trying to sing. I didn’t so much mind “Obsessed” in its original form, but this remix was making me check the “time elapsed” counter on the embedded video from about the :53 point on. Clip after the jump. More »
Trey Songz’ “LOL :)”: Hear It Now Before You Hear It Everywhere
Also on the new Tapemasters Inc. mix: “LOL :)” (pronounced “el oh el, smiley-face”), an ode to the lurid trend of “sexting” by Trey Songz with assists from Soulja Boy and Gucci Mane. Oh, readers, you are going to hear this song, which I believe is the lead single from Songz’ forthcoming album Ready, everywhere this summer. It has a delicate beat that I guess is supposed to remind one of computer alert sounds; it name-drops Twitpic; and Soulja Boy’s verse features a line where he rhymes “Blackberry” and “Halle Berry.” (He also name-checks his recent hit “Kiss Me Thru The Phone,” which is a further testament to his ability to self-market.) The track after the jump. More »
