Kanye West’s “Perfect B**ch” song on his upcoming album is about Kim Kardashian. The Game’s cancelled wedding is going to cost him a grip even though it’s back on, 2 Chainz is finally exhausted from all his features on other songs, and Justin Timberlake getting back in the studio is what’s poppin’ in today’s UrbLinks.

This past weekend Kanye West shared tracks from his highly anticipated upcoming album Cruel Summer and a stand out track was “Perfect B*tch.” There has been a lot of speculation as to whether or not the song referenced his now girlfriend Kim Kardashian and his ex-girlfriend Amber Rose. Speculation has now been put to rest. Kanye has officially confirmed that the song is about Kim Kardashian. [NYDN]

In the last month rapper The Game has called off his wedding, broken several bones playing basketball, and now has to pay over $100k for the cancelled wedding. By the way the wedding is now back on since he and his fiancé have reconciled. I never thought the phrase “cheaper to keep her” would reign true for someone you weren’t even married to yet. [Boombox]

I don’t know about you, but I’ve definitely felt like 2 Chainz has been musically slutting himself out a bit when it comes to artist features. Just this year alone he’s been on songs with Jae Millz, Cory Gunz, Kreayshawn, E-40, Curren$y, Teairra Mari, Lloyd, Tyga and so many more. Those are only a few of the features from 2012 – and it’s only August. Well he’s taking a break from that for a while. [KSFM]

I bet who you can’t guess who 2 Chainz is inspiring. No not the next generation of rappers with ridiculous lyrics. He’s inspiring a conscious rapper — Common! [HipHopWired]

It’s been seven months since Ne-Yo has been appointed SVP of A&R at Motown Records and he let Power 105’s The Breakfast Club in on how he chooses records, advice he’s gotten from LA Reid and Berry Gordy and his quest to preserve R&B music and eliminate the disconnect. [Examiner]

Speaking of preserving R&B I’ve had Noel Gourdin’s new track “Foxxxy” on repeat all day. Check it out below here. [Youtube]
