Jay-Z calls Angie Martinez about Lil’ Mama’s stagecrash: “I was mad” (<-understatement)

(hilarious video mash-up thanks to Ted Smooth)
While Jay-Z has been promoting Blueprint 3 in Europe, and doing many and various appearances (rapping to yodelers on German TV, talking to French reporters, eating at the rich and famous versions of franchise food)…he still took time to call my homie Angie Martinez to shut down Lil’ Mama directly.
In this short excerpt, Hov restrains himself and says that yes, Lil Mama’s brazen attempt to go where she did not belong…miffed him.
“I would never have the nerve to do that.. I thought it was the equivalant to what Kanye did to Taylor Swift… I was a little angry, yeah. But what I’ma do, fight Lil Mama?”

You can hear the rest of Jay-Z’s phonecall here, they talk about his #1 album, and his champagne investment (Ace of Spades) ranking, etc…
Speaking of reactions to Lil Mama-Gate….here is my “What Grinds My Gears” episode of Celebrity Drama reacting to Lil Mama’s lame excuse/apology…the best part were Funkmaster Flex and Tat Wza’s reactions! LOL

Completely understandable…..at least had to been someone a lil more relevant.Oooh well…..

Was hoping for a Jay Def Jam story last nite to go with Lyor, Russell and the gang.

I think Hov doesn’t feel fond about Def Jam

…I was wondering about that. I mean he’s made it sound as if the split was on good terms. Yet his actions remind me of how Dame would constantly snub the Def Jam association with Rocafella.
…I guess my hopes for an original Murder Unit reunion yesterday were a bit far fetched.

Have you heard her free style over the “Empire State of Mind” beat? (unplugs life support to die of laughter)

Aww…Lil Mama is teenager! She felt the holy spirit and had to run up to the alter! LMAO! What she did was wrong but she didn’t ruin the performance that badly, it wasn’t like she snatched the mic out his hand. If that had been a grown male rapper like Lil Wayne, it wouldn’t have been this big of a deal.
P.S. Info what did you say about Jermaine Dupri?

y’all people are ridiculous…get over it already it wasn’t your show. How come you can accept Kanye’s apology but not Lil Mama’s…He way older and should know alot better. His being drunk is no excuse..He should have showed a little more class and not show up drinking and she should have showed more class and restraint but she didn’t take the mic from him and start rapping….now that would have been astronomical and a lot more funny…Jay is not even goin this hard….so why is everybody else?…

Kanye got it waaaaaay worse than Lil Mama…based on circumstance,of course.They dont care about a rappers show getting interrupted.Kanye interrupted a teenage white girl..that holds more weight to the media.cause u better believe if it was Keke Palmer or something gettin a award and Ye did that,it wouldnt mean anything..im just sayin.

Thank you for recognizing this. It wouldn’t have been nearly as rude or talked about. When Kanye did this to justice (he was sober and way more disrespectful towards them)
Hell..the same people that are out for Kanyes’ head didn’t even have a reaction this strong to what Chris Brown did. but they sure as hell are quick to throw Kanye and Chris in the same boat.

I don’t think he would have done that to Keke Palmer. She’s sweet but I do believe she might have had to channel her character in “The Longshots”, but you right I don’t think the media would have made that much fuss. However mainstream media and the hip hop media are two different circuits. Just like the mainstream is giving it to Kanye, the hip hop media is givin it to Lil Mama, but Jay and Taylor are both over it and moved on while they stlll rehashing the drama. Both have apologized, both no longer have their mamas to tell them to calm the hell down….now it’s time to move on to more important things put some real knowledge out there this stuff playin over and over again is just a distraction…get focused people!

Wrong. Kanye gets it worst because he is WAY MORE FAMOUS. I’m tired of people always trying to make it a race issue. Blacks were just as mad at kanye as white people but we want to fucos on white people being mad at a black person. If lil Mama was Madona, Jay-Z would had been as mad. Probably would had welcome it. Lil Mama is a nobody, Kanye is somebody very big.

truth is truth,Billy.I honestly dont wanna say its race but it is…Kanye did this before and much worse but it was no big deal.Also,Jay-Z is more famous than Kanye…they dont talk about Lil Mama fuckin up his performance like that.Hell,a guy had his ass and balls in Eminem face at the Movie Awards,that didnt get much attention compared to this.My point is,Kanye was wrong but is all this necessary?.celebs didnt comment on Rihanna gettin beat up but they “hate”Kanye on twitter over this bullshit.
Its the fuckin MTV Awards she will win plenty of awards…sheesh.”but its her first one..”gtfoh,shit made her more famous if anything..
September 24th, 2009 at 3:23 pm
this is lil mama, jayz sees me as his number 1 competition and his lil sis’.he wanted to sign me but i said no way, and that’s when he invited me on stage to show the world his love and admiration for MY work. I knew Alicia would get jealous of our performance, shes a hater…
p.s jayz’s lips were my inspiration for ‘lip gloss’ a certified hip hop classic

Lil Mama mighta been drunk too. You know kids somehow manage to get alcohol right?

lmao info u did kinda really get at her.. “DUST!” -flex hahaha
thats a real interesting point about how the reaction would differ if it were a male rapper like lil wayne getting on stage.. or maybe a cory gunz (tryna think of a lil mama male equivalent, no shots)? if other people woulda started getting on stage with her.. who knows. she did hands down ruin that moment tho

Please, Lord let THIS be the last of this.
BP3 not worth talking about anymore?
All we’ve heard about was his success which is WELL documented, and full covergae on the Lil Mama incident.
Let’s make some better music so we can blog about that.

Bong!lol
Listen, Lil’ Mama has some real career decisions to make. Everything that she has delivered to the general public after Lip Gloss bombed. She makes horrible fashion choices coupled with bad songs. If it wasn’t for BET Hip Hop Awards I don’t think anyone would have realized that she can actually spit. Now the attention that she has always craved for her career is here. What is she going to do with it? For her sake, she needs to be sitting on some hot music to wash away this situation. She meant to get on stage and get the attention so now she’s got to deliver. That final shot of all 3 in a bboy stance at the end, you can’t tell me Jay’s face isn’t telling the story, especially if it’s true and he spazzed out backstage. You would think that MTV would be cautious of people running up on stage after Kanye would have stepped up the security or at the very least made an annoucement to those crowding the stage and the nominees sitting close to the stage to not approach the stage unless called. Lil’ Mama needs to concentrate on that Bow Wow Souljah Boy Newz Boyz crowd. And if she is saying that she didn’t realize she did anything wrong till she went home and saw the footage then i’m calling shenanigans. She is a professional recording artist. She should know after seeing Kanye situation and being aware of the T-Pain Summer Jam incident that she shouldn’t be up there. She knew what she was doing and now she has to ride it out. She needs new management if they thought that this would help her out. Pissing off arguably the biggest rap star and r&b star by jumping in on their set. The difference between Lil’ Mama jumping on stage and Kanye and T-Pain and 50 Cent and Ol’ Dirty Bastard is all of these guys are proven hit makers.

am I the only one who noticed how jay flip flopped his position on kanye-gate to serve his own purposes? last week it was ok, and kanye’s “passionate”, but not its i ” got mad and it was similar to what kanye did” in effect implying that what kanye did was wrong…I’m just saying

You aint the only one. Dont get me wrong I love Jay, but Jay does that a lot especially to serve his own purpose and the only reason he does it a lot is ,because most people are scared to call him out on his bullshit.

You’re just saying, but you are wrong.Jay said Kanye was passionate, but he also said what Kanye did was wrong with his first statement on the subject.

Lil’ Mama jumping on stage was dumb/silly/inappropriate, but Jay can’t seriously say it’s the same as what Kanye did…….. Absolutely not.

first of all, lil mama is a young girl who made a mistake. i agree w/ whoever siad that “yall didn’t get this mad when chris brown brutalized rihanna). jay-z was once young and wanted to get recognized and seen too. now all of sudden (by his standards) this was the worst thing that has been done to him? she is from brooklyn; and she got caught up in the moment. (i also like her because she gave my daughter her first chance to star in one of her videos) so knock it off talking about a 19 yr old girl. jay-z is now getting a lot of enemies so he needs to focus his energies on that. he is way too old to be getting this mad. and as for alicia keys; she needs to stop stealing other people’s husbands because i did not know she was like that. “a home wrecker”. the world has alot more to worry about then both situations. the kanye and lil mama incidents. people are starving, homeless and out of jobs.
