Beyonce set to drop an album in two weeks !!!!

A very important memo is going around the web and it states that #Beyonce is dropping a full album in two weeks with features like Rihanna, NickiMinaj and of course JayZ  #BREAKINGHEADLINES

 The memo features a track listing that includes 10 new songs, 11 new videos and a 4-disc copy that will include the first portion of the self-titled album along with DVDs of her Mrs. Carter World Tour and On The Run Tour.

The rumored Beyonce Vol. 2 track list also features three other notable new tracks: “DONK” featuring Nicki Minaj, “Renouncement” featuring Justin Timberlake and “Cherry” featuring Rihanna,  the “Blow” remix.

If this secret press release (rollout) is the real deal and us journalist are not being trolled , Beyonce will release a digital iTunes-only edition of Beyonce Vol. 2 on Nov. 14, with the 4-disc physical copy dropping on Nov. 25. Judging from the last secret suprise album the songs should be completly awesome and the visual nthing short of epic.

Billboard praises Rock R&B crooner Miguel

Miguel saw his single “Adorn” rise 229 percent after performing at the 2013 Grammy Awards with father-to-be Wiz Khalifa. The breakout single from his raved about album “Kaleidoscope Dream” jumped up 44,000 downloads, according to Nielsen Soundscan. Billboard Magazine caught up with the rising star at his LA home where he revealed the workings behind his Grammy performance, winning the coveted golden gramophone and the hype behind his “collaboration” with Beyonce.
Congrats on winning your first Grammy. Since the award wasn’t televised, where were you when you found out?
I found out in the car as we were pulling up to the red carpet. It was an “Oh, shit” moment. I had my girl with me and it was like, “How crazy is that? And I get to perform?” It was just a great feeling.
Some of the songs are romantic, others are more overtly sexual. How much were inspired by your own seven-year relationship, and what does your girlfriend think of some of those songs? 
“P***y Is Mine” was not her favorite song. That whole song was freestyle. What makes it interesting is the juxtaposition of ego and vulnerability. It’s kind of rolled in this vulnerability, wanting to claim it — “Tell me that it’s mine” — but it’s also out of this vulnerable need: “I want to feel I’m the only one in this moment.” I’ve really been there. It felt like such an honest moment.
An artist you may have worked with is Beyonce. What’s the story behind that photo of you two in the studio last fall?
Have I worked with Beyonce? [laughs] I was really nervous to ask her, that was all, I just asked her to take a photo with me and she was really sweet about it. That’s all I can say. I’ve honestly never worked with Beyonce. It would be awesome, though, I would love that.

LIL WAYNE CHOPS IT UP WITH VIBE MAGAZINE.

WAYNE ON JAY-Z AND “THE OLD GUYS”jay z
“There’s no competition [with any artists]. Music isn’t about competition no more. All the gangster rappers are happy, all the skateboard rappers are happy, all the white rappers are happy… Everybody just happy to do music these days. There are no problems. That shit died a long time ago with them old-ass rappers. We are just making music, making money and having fun feeding our families. Competition is for the old guys.”
VIBE: You say competition is for the “old guys,” but it sounds like you’re going at Jay-Z with that line, “I got your baby money/Kidnap your bitch, get that how-much-you-love-your-lady money.” Are we looking at it the wrong way?
LIL WAYNE: I know for a fact, music is about perception. You can’t do anything but perceive what you hear. If I know that for a fact, I can never be upset about someone’s reaction to it. I’m not gonna say I don’t know what will happen before I say it [on record]. I do know what will happen. I am aware of it. It is what it is.
VIBE: So you knew the repercussions of going after Jay before anything even happened?
LIL WAYNE: Well, I’m a man. I believe as a man you should know that. Every man should know the repercussions and consequences behind whatever they do before they do it. And of course, I know there won’t be any repercussions behind what I did.
WAYNE ON LOOKING AT DRAKE AS COMPETITION:
VIBE: You mentioned how humbled you were at the success of “She Will.” Drake, who wrote and performs the song’s chorus, has now become a platinum star in his own right. Do you look at the guy and say, “Wow, I helped create a monster, I have to stay on my toes”?
LIL WAYNE: I don’t look at it like that. Drake is my artist. If he wasn’t my artist, then yeah maybe. But that’s my artist. He’s not [just] a friend. We’re more than friends. It’s business. It would be impossible for it to be a competition. I mean, I’m the guy’s boss.
WAYNE ON HIP-HOP INFLUENCING THE LONDON RIOTS:
VIBE: Given that Cash Money artist Jay Sean is a native of the U.K., you probably have some strong feelings about the London riots and how some talking heads blamed it on hip-hop culture.
LIL WAYNE: All you could do is pray for the people that were dealing with the situation and hope for the best. As far as them blaming hip-hop, you can blame Jesus for things, so you can’t really fault anybody for blaming someone or something. All you can do is hope for the best.
