Interscope and Geffen Records merged into one on Thursday and along with the merger was the layoff of 60 people. Many of those laid off had been there for years. This is another sign that the music industry is dying.

A music industry source is saying that the biggest reasons for the merger and cutbacks were the huge failures of the albums of will.i.am, Nicole Scherzinger and Eve. The last two aren’t even out yet but are projected to be big losses. The insider says “It cost $18 million to make and market those three albums - all bombs. Jimmy Iovine [the head of Interscope responsible for the layoffs] is the most hated man in music today!”

Rapper Eve is struggling to get used to her alcohol monitoring ankle bracelet. The hip-hop star was ordered to wear the SCRAM (Secure Continuous Remote Alcohol Monitoring) after striking a plea agreement for her DUI arrest in April. But she admits it has not been easy. Yeah now she gets the thing, gulping down Heineken beer and more of alcohol beverages do not get you any awards just an ankle bracelet that is with in even when you go to bed. How irritating can that be, well I won’t like to have one for my self and that’s coz in do not drink alcohol as for Eve she’s made her choice her cannot leave the booze so she’s made friends with the ankle bracelet. Now what would be a nice thought for her is that she should be made to wear the bracelet in a position above her footwear so that we all can have a glimpse for that beautiful thing that she’s carrying with her right now.
