Popular Atlanta DJ Greg Street is set to release his second major label compilation Greg Street Certified Worldwide on Interscope Records later this year.
Greg Street Certified Worldwide will feature appearances by Lil Wayne, Game, Soulja Boy, Kardinal Offishall, Rich Boy, Wale and others.
“The concept is breaking artists/introducing artist’s…I want to be the source for real artists who want to do what they do and go hard in their lane,”Greg Street told HipHopDX. “Hip-Hop is very diverse and a lot of critics try to compare artist to other artists and put them in boxes. And to me it’s not right. If you’re talented and have a good work ethic anything is possible.”
The Mississippi native has been a DJ at V103 for close to 15 years and his show on V103 has secured the #1 rated Arbitron spot in all demographics.

He didn’t get to do his thing with Pepsi thanks to Bill O’Reilly, but it looks like Ludacris will get the last laugh as he has partnered with one of the biggest phone companies in the world.
In a move to keep their brand of product accessible to the youth, AT&T has landed a deal with Ludacris to supply them the outlet. This multi-million dollar contract is the first of its kind to be offered up from AT&T as far as Hip Hop acts are involved. Along with promoting AT&T products through online advertisements, Ludacris will also do a few television ad spots, one of which has already been shot and is expected to air in August.
The commercial follows the same scheme as the latest AT&T commercials, where Ludacris will lose phone service as an unexpected situation comes up. However, because of his inept service, he misses out on the action by not having AT&T.
This will also be Ludacris’ second phone commercial thus far as he did one in 2005 for Boost Mobile.
