      *Death Row heavyweight Suge Knight has reportedly joined 50 Cent on The Game’s s*** list.  According to the New York Post, Suge’s crew got into it with Game’s folks in Los Angeles Sunday outside of marketing mogul Steve Stoute’s 35th birthday party at Cabana. The altercation reportedly sprung from an incident the night before when one of Knight’s men tried to snatch Game’s chain from his neck. Word of the beef apparently prompted Ciara’s reps to rescind invitations for both camps to attend the singer’s party at Geisha House the following night.

      *In the latest on 50 Cent’s beef with the Terror Squad, SOHH.com reports that 50’s G-Unit member Tony Yayo was scheduled to be interviewed at a Miami radio station by co-host DJ Khaled, a member of the Terror Squad. They reportedly got to tusslin’ and Yayo was forced out of the station, however, Khaled told SOHH.com: "Nobody at the station, including myself, tried to force Tony Yayo out or tell him to leave. He decided on his own to leave and not do the scheduled interview." Yayo’s debut album “Thoughts of a Predicate Felon” is due next month.

      *Charlotte Church, the 19-year-old Welsh classical phenom, says that Tupac Shakur and Elton John’s joint “Ghetto Gospel,” the UK’s current No. 1 single, may threaten the chart-topping potential of her new single “Crazy Chick,” her first foray into pop music. “Ghetto Gospel” is from Pac’s album “Loyal to the Game,” one of 11 projects to be released since the rapper’s death in 1996. Church’s loyalty to her own game has led to a blind dislike of “Ghetto Gospel.” She said: "Elton John and Tupac are really big... but I think it's crap. Of course I don't like it, it's my competition. I like Elton, but Tupac - he should stop releasing records, let the man rest in peace for God's sake. Elton John has had enough number ones in his time and I reckon he should let someone else have a go."

      *Big Boi of OutKast, Lil’ Kim and Twista lend songs to the soundtrack for the Midway Games arcade racing video game "LA Rush." The game and soundtrack will be released during the holiday season.

       *Jay-Z is among a host of MCs who appear on the “Inner City Streetball Vol. 1” DVD along with the sport’s stars Shane the Dribbling Machine, High Octane, Headache, Helicopter, AO, the Pharmacist and more. Interviews with members of The Roots, the Wu Tang Clan and Prodigy from Mobb Deep are also sprinkled throughout the DVD, hosted by Hannibal and Black of the New York underground hip hop show, GhettoNomics.

      *Curb Records artist and “American Idol” season two finalist Kimberley Locke has been hired by plus-size retailer Lane Bryant to front its new Seven7 designer jeans collection. The gig calls for Locke to star in the new advertising and marketing campaign for the size 14-28 line, which launches July 11th.  "Being in the public eye gives me the opportunity to show people that women who are just like me, who are curvy, voluptuous, and have full figures can be beautiful, too," says Locke.
