2 Chainz is still promoting his B.O.A.T.S. II mixtape with a brand new video for his track "Used 2."  Check out his salute to New Orleans rap alongside the Cash Money boys inside...

The Hot Boys (sans BG) reunited to Nolia Clap it up for 2 Chainz's new "Used 2" video.  Lil Wayne, Turk, Juvenile and the Hot Boys/Cash Money producer Mannie Fresh took it to the streets of N.O. for this throwback style vid.

The vid was full of locals repping and twerking for the cameras as the fellas went old school N.O. style rapping on top of cars in the hood.  Gotta love it.

Check out the vid below with the track that brings back those Hot Boys memories from the 90's.

 

BONUS: Speaking of Cash Money, rapper The Game just joined the family.  he posted the below to let the world know this weekend:

Over the weekend, Jay Z took the tube with Chris Martin and Timbaland to the O2 Arena for his Magna Carta Holy Grail residency gig. See photos and video inside and watch Hov's full "Made In America" documentary in case you missed it....

Though he's worth over $400 million dollars, Jay Z showed his down-to-earth side on Saturday when he chose to ride the tube (public transportation) to the O2 arena in London where his Magna Carta Holy Grail tour played. Sometimes public transpo in London (and most major cities) is just easier.  It wasn't Jay's first time going underground before concert as he did the same thing on his way to Barclays in Brooklyn last year before one of his shows.

This time, he wasn't alone......

The rapper was accompanied by Coldplay's Chris Martin--who took the stage with him that night to rock "Heart of the City"--and producer Timbaland.

 

Watch videos of the group below....


 

Also this weekend.....

The Showtime documentary Made In America, which Jay Z produced with Ron Howard, aired this weekend.  It's all about how Jay, Budweiser & their respective teams created the newest "big summer festival" in America.  Watch the full film above in case you missed it....

Rihanna rolled into Johannesburg, South Africa this weekend to bring her Diamonds World Tour to the gorgeous city and set a record or two.  And she spent her downtime cuddling (legally this time) with exotic animals.

 

Pics of her trip to see her new wild friends, plus news about her brand new super expensive NYC condo inside...

It's a tongue war between Rihanna and her new giraffe friend.  The pop starlet traveled to South Africa to rock out for her Diamonds world tour and spent her downtime at a wildlife visitation place.  And according to the artist herself, the 67,000 person crowd in Johannesburg this weekend was one of the biggest ever at that stadium for a female audience.  And she's one of the youngest to sell it out.

Nice!

Of course, the gorge chick she made her visit look like an effortless impromptu photoshoot.  And even whipped out her camo knee high boots for the occasion.

The "Pour It Up" chick also showed off her new tattoo that looked painful as all hell.  Before leaving New Zealand right before she rolled to South Africa, she she stopped by tattooist Inia Taylor to get an elaborate design of lines and symbols chiseled into her arm with a mallet) at the Moko Ink studio in West Auckland.  And she showed off the finished product with her South African flag tribute nails.

Check out video of Rihanna getting a traditional Polynesian tattoo using the traditional Maori method HERE

Meanwhile, now that she had to move out of her new L.A. mansion due to several break ins, Ri has copped a new pad already.  According to Splash News, This one is a condo in NYC....which will cost her deep pockets $39,000...A MONTH.

The pad is downtown between Soho & Chinatown.  And we hope that mug cooks for you, cleans itself and does anything else for that price. 

Welcome to NYC Ri Ri!
