Rick Ross is moving up the Aftermath food chain, no longer interested in 50 Cent. Instead, Ross, who just released his third album Deeper Than Rap, has set his sights on Fif's boss, Eminem.
"I mean, I'm a fan of Eminem," said Ross to MTV News. "I'm a fan first and foremost. But after defeating Curly, my confidence is at an all-time high. Maybe before I wouldn't have challenged him, but I'm contemplating it now. The game is commending me for my victory. That's all I wanted to do was ... punish the opposition. I think I've done a great job and I'm gonna continue to do that."
Ross appears to be particularly adamant about this, as this is the second time in the past week he has expressed interest in possibly challenging Eminem.
"I think he's a bigger and better artist than what Curly is," continued Ross. "So if I was looking to fulfill that excitement or that rush, that's who I have to address."
However, Ross revealed he'd be interested in being a part of Shady's upcoming album, Relapse.
"I'm trying to be a part of that," Ross said. "It's either way. We gonna see each other one way or another."

Lil Wayne appeared in front of a Manhattan Superior Court Judge yesterday (April 23) for a gun possession charge stemming from a 2007 arrest.

According to MTV News, Wayne did not speak during the hearing, as his lawyer filed a motion for additional discovery, which will have the officer who made the arrest in court next month.
The motion is the result of a possible inconsistency between the officer's account and a detective that filed the police report.

The testimony in court of the exchange between Wayne and the officer on Weezy's tour bus differed from what was entered into the police report. Police say they smelled marijuana before they stopped Wayne's bus and entered it, upon which they found an illegal gun. The rapper's lawyers say that the police did not smell the marijuana before stopping the bus, and therefore had no reason to search it.

In addition to the motion, an affidavit was filed to question DNA testing used to prove that the gun belonged to Lil Wayne and not legally registered to his manager, Cortez Byrant.
Wayne, the arresting officer and the detective who filled out the police report are scheduled to appear on May 20. The rapper's attorney was instructed by Judge Charles Solomon to call any additional witnesses on that day as well.

Cash Money label heads Bryan "Baby" Williams and Ronald "Slim" Williams arrived 10 minutes after Wayne to offer their support.

OMG!LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Billy Ray Cyrus is responding to the off-color comments Jamie Foxx made about his daughter Miley Cyrus over the weekend.
"It was hurtful, there wasn't nothing funny about it," Billy Ray told Bonnie Hunt during an appearance on "The Bonnie Hunt Show," which taped Wednesday and airs on Thursday.


He added, "And quite frankly, I think if I said those things about his daughter he might not find it so comedic."
Over the weekend, Jamie said Miley should, "make a sex tape and grow up," during his Sirius satellite radio show, the Associated Press reported.

The actor was also reportedly heard saying: "Who is Miley Cyrus ? The one with all the gums? She need to get a gum transplant!"
On Tuesday, "The Soloist" actor apologized to Miley during his appearance on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno , " saying, "I so apologize to [Miley], and this is sincere. I am a comedian, and you guys know that whatever I say, I don't mean any of it. And sometimes, as comedians, as we do, we go a little bit too far."
