Yesterday I went to MTV for their Spankin’ New Music Week. Times Square was absolute chaos since a bunch of artists were in the building. Lil' Wayne was there to promote his new release, Tha Carter III. Weezy was busy hosting TRL so I couldn’t catch him but I did get to kick it with Akon, Tyga, and Shwayze, a new rapper out of Malibu who has a new reality show coming up next month.

That’s me, Warren (the tour manager), Shwayze (the rapper) and Cisco Adler (the producer who's known for being in the tabloids with Mischa Barton and Paris Hilton).

Of course Wayne had a stretch SUV limo with a Jacuzzi in the back filled with bikini clad women (why wouldn’t he?)

Wayne’s street team was heavy.

And there’s Akon. I did a quick interview with him also which I’ll be posting soon.

But first, Shwayze. I know you’ll be hearing more about this guy in the coming months. Shwayze hooked with Cisco Adler (of the band Whitestarr) at one of his infamous Hollywood house parties and the collaboration was born. Now, they have a hit single called “Buzzin’” and an upcoming “Entourage”-style reality show with the same name premiering next month.

I talked to Tyga about how he feels to be dropping his debut album on the same day as his label head Lil' Wayne and how he's dealing with internet hate. Watch the video below:
