Kanye West apparently has a new mortgage on his hands. TMZ reports ‘Ye must fork up $600,000 to an Illinois trust company to pay off the mortgage on his late mother’s condo. The creditor’s claim documents, which can be viewed on TMZ, state that Dr. Donda West owed over $600,000 plus interest at the time of her death. As the executor of Donda’s estate, the Louis Vutton Don inherited the debt. Just last year TMZ reported that Dr. West passed with less than $250, 000 in cash and didn’t leave a will. [TMZ]
The gossip site is also reporting that Death Row Records was bought for $24 million yesterday after a bankruptcy court judge ordered it to be auctioned. Global Music Group president Susan Berg outbid all comers to secure the legendary label. The deal also includes 20 unreleased 2Pac Shakur tracks. [TMZ]
D-Block has just announced the release of their first clique album, Prepare For Glory. In addition to featuring LOX MCs, Jadakiss, Sheek Louch and Styles P, the set will also include verses from D-Block members like Poobs, Trav, Straws, A.P., T.Y., Bucky, Bully, Don D. and Large Amount. “That’s My Nigga,” the album’s first offering just leaked onto the internet. Prepare For Glory is scheduled to hit stores August 19 via Babygrande Records. [The Lox Speaks On Prepare For Glory] –XXL Staff

Damn, that’s just like “THE MAN” to make a nicca pay of someone else’s debt. Mother or not, that debt should’ve died with her(Especially if he didn’t co-sign for it). But “THE MAN” knows Ye’ got ends, and he will stops at no ends to get it.
Fuck “THE MAN”!
When I die, I hope I owe’em “A MILLI”! Just my way of given the system “THE BIRD” from the grave. Bitchessss

Yo on the XXL, this is not cool. To say that the records are on TMZ and put someone’s business all out there like that? For real?!
Man fuck that dude, that’s not cool.
Whether anyone likes Kanye or not, he lost his mother. His rock.
Have some damn class.

I think my first post didn’t go through.
I hope others read this and agree.
Shame on XXL for posting all of Kanye and his mother’s business out there. Especially from a source like TMZ that thrives off gossip.
Whether anyone likes Kanye or not, that was his mother. Give them some respect and have some class.
Puttin all that personal business out there is extremly disrespectful.
I was hoping to read something a little bit more informative that telling me about their personal finances.
May she reast in peace.
