P is free! After serving more than three years at the Mid-State Correctional Facility in New York on weapons charges, Prodigy is back on the streets. He was released yesterday and promptly gave a videotaped statement to ThisIs50.com about getting sprung from the clink. "Same old shit," he said. "Ain't nothin' changed. This what it is."







Welcome back, P. But if that's what you're thinking—"ain't nothin' changed"—we need to inform you that you are definitely mistaken. Since you went away back in 2008, things have changed. From the music people are listening to to the athletes they're cheering for to the technology they're using, a lot has actually changed while you were behind bars. But, don't worry: We're here to help. And to do that, VIBE.com put together a list of the 10 things Prodigy missed while he was away in prison. Hopefully, it'll help him get with the program again. You ready, dun?— Chris Yuscavage

Vince P Lawsuit Against Kanye West Over 'Stronger' Thrown Out




A lawsuit, in which a Virginia rapper claimed Kanye West stole his smash hit "Stronger" from one of his songs, was thrown out last week, when a judge said the songs in question were not noticeably similar.

Last summer, West was sued by a rapper named Vince P, claiming a song he recorded in 2006, also called "Stronger", was stolen by the rap superstar after he submitted it to West's business manager.

Vince P (real name: Vincent Peters) said seven months after he sent off his song to West's camp, the Chicago rapper released his own version of the track.

Vince cited examples, in which he said similar bits of his own chorus were used for West's hook as well -- including the phrases "that which does not kill me makes me stronger," "can't wait much longer" and the word "wronger."



Well, a judge didn't agree, and the suit is caput.

Vince P originally demanded an unspecified amount in damages and for the label to cease distribution and performance of the song, as well as destroy any copies of the single.

"Stronger" appeared on Kanye's 2007 album, Graduation.
