Writing via a blog post, Bow Wow talked about his magazine cover hustle.
"So today i'm shooting my cover for Murder Dog mag. I'm excited because i remember when it was hard for me to get covers on some of hip hop's magazine. It took a long time to get source cover, but eventually i did. if only i can get XXL, But thats another story," he wrote Thursday (June 17). "I just say respect the work, and music. At the end of the day its all about politics. So all my fans be on the look out for the cover. Also check back here later, i will upload more pics from today's shoot."
Recently, Bow Wow talked about his relationship with Cash Money/Young Money labelmates Nicki Minaj and Drake, both whom were recently featured on the cover of XXL.
"[Me and Drake,] we're the same age so we have a lot of similarities. It's all love. We don't really have conversation like that, just once in a blue moon. 'What's happening? Congratulations on your success,' stuff like that. We're all so busy, that's something a lot of people don't understand. Drizzy's all over the place, you got me with the movie thing, Nicki's doing her thing and of course Lil Wayne and all the Young Money imprint is busy working on different areas so we don't get a chance to really all hang out. But when we do, we do it big."
In 2009, Bow Wow said he would be retiring from the rap game.
"This is my last album because for me, there's no more that needs to be done on the music side, I've done everything," Bow explained. "And the scary thing is I'm 22 years-old and I'm young. I'm still a baby, so it's kinda like on the music side, I've been doing it since five. That's 17 years of non-stop music, music, music. There's nothing more to accomplish that I haven't seen yet...I feel like now it's time to endure a new challenge...Close the chapter on the Bow Wow legacy...As far as albums, I'm good. Seven albums at 22, that's crazy."
Last year, the rapper signed a deal with Cash Money Records.
"To the naysayers, I hope that you give me the opportunity to earn your respect," he wrote Tuesday (August 18) night. "I know that over the years I've put many of my faults on display which I make no excuses for. I'm young and I've made mistakes and I will make more. No different than any other 22 year old, I still have some growing up to do...To anyone who's confused or says I don't belong in Cash Money. Let me remind you that I've been down with Baby, Slim, Wayne and the whole Cash Money family from the beginning."

Bow Wow Falls In Love W/ Erykah Badu's "Window Seat" Video, "Man, If I Was Just 10 Years Older"
Rapper Bow Wow has reacted to singer Erykah Badu's new "Window Seat" music video which features her disrobing in public.
Writing via Twitter, Bow Weezy also imagined a relationship with the singer.
"I jus gotta new crush. its @fatbellybella (Erykah Badu) she is too fine in her new video. Man if i was jus 10 yrs older. :) look sexy," he wrote Sunday (March 28) evening. "#iknewitwaslove when i saw @fatbellybella New video "Window Seat" @IAM_BART bro i know she can put me up on game. i could learn from her. she a have me reading and learning sh*t about life im so down. gnr"
Over the weekend, the video began to circulate through various music blogs.
Erykah Badu's official video for "Window Seat" is finally here. And homegirl strips down to nothing. And still kept it creative. Her album leaked as well and folks are loving it. Check out the vid. You feelin' it?
Badu later explained the song and video's motivation via Twitter.
"i was petrified while shooting this video ... but liberation began to set in .i conquered many fears in that few moments . i am greatful," she wrote Saturday (March 27) evening. "we are ALL guilty of groupthink we have all been VICTIMS of groupthink @ShugaAnnSpyce no closed set . no actors . everything was real . window seat video notes: had intended to direct this vid alone. after working w/ coodie and chike and bouncing thoughts i asked them to join RT @TravlrStone: @fatbellybella "Window Seat" was an unbelievable moment in vulnerability and liberation. That took bawlz. @SaskiaChanel my views are condition,thus pointless .i am encouraging thought thru correct definition of #groupthink in its original intent @SaskiaChanel i make no claims , i am not qualified .William H. Whyte coined the term in 1952, in Fortune magazine . this term #groupthink intellects get in here . what are the pros and cons of shooting this type of video ? www.erykahbadu.com RT @Amadii: @fatbellybella the Kennedy association .i did'nt expect u to get shot,but the video appears 2 be about character assassinati ..."
The singer plans to release new music and her latest album, New Amerykah Part Two, tomorrow.
"The Internet has afforded us with a way to not limit ourselves to the album project," Badu told Billboard recently. "There are so many ways to put out music now without having it just being a part of an album." A number of websites will premiere each version of "Jump" exclusively throughout the month of March. Erykah Badu's anticipated album, "New Amerykah Part Two: Return of the Ankh," is due in stores and at digital retail March 30.
