Last week, the AJC reported that the Wacka Flocka Flame brawl and shooting that took place at Walter's Clothing Store near Georgia State was between members of Gucci Mane and Young Jeezy's crews. We refrained from reporting the details on Crib Notes because at the time the writer couldn't substantiate who from Jeezy's crew was on site. Wacka Flocka is a Gucci protege. But Wacka has confirmed it himself via trash-talking on Twitter about people from Jeezy's crew who were there.

Last week the group finished recording the drum parts for the album at Glow in the Dark studio, and have now moved over to Living Room studios to continue recording with producer Sanford Parker (Minsk). "It's going to be a pretty straight-forward rock album and I think it's what we wanted to create with both Dog Magic and Voice of Saturn rolled into one," offers drummer Dan Scanlan. "There will be a lot of shorter tracks that are very straight forward and hard-hitting — it's a lot less of a droning record than what people are expecting."
