      *Nate Dogg is not dead. The West coast gangsta crooner was rumored to have died this week in the wake of a severe stroke he suffered in January, but sources close to the artist have told Allhiphop.com that he is still very much alive and continues to recover from his stroke.

      *Lil Wayne has spoken. According to the Mayan prophecies that he's been studying during down time on his tour bus, the world as we know it will cease to exist in four years. He tells Blender magazine: "The world is about to end in 2012... 'cause the Mayans made calendars, and they stop at 2012. I got encyclopedias on the bus. The world is about to end as we know it. You can see it already. A planet doesn't exist - there's no more Pluto. Planes are flying into buildings - and not just the Twin Towers. Mosquitos bite you and you die. And a black man and a woman are running for president."      

       *Akon says he plans to use a pseudonym to launch a new singing career in country music. He tells MTV, "I was trying to shock the world with that. I've been doing some writing and producing for some country artists but I've been going under and alias, so no one knows I'm doing it. Depending on those records, how well they do, I might just come out with one (album)... I just want to see if I can conquer this side of things."

       *Plies will promote the June 10th release of his new album "Definition of Real" with a nationwide promo tour this week and a series of future appearances in association with Army & Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES) and Navy Exchange Service Command. The album includes the current single "Bust It Baby Part 2" and "Who Hotter Than Me."
