Flopped rapper Kevin Federline has dropped the mic and is now turning his attention to producing music. Quote of the Day: “He knows no one will ever take him seriously as a performer, so he’s working behind the scenes as a producer.”

Take him seriously as a performer? We wouldn’t take Federline seriously as the french fry guy at McDonald’s.

“Kevin has been actively producing, nurturing new artists and doing it all from his home studio, so he can be there for his kids whenever they need him,” says a source close to K-Fed. “He loves the music business and is committed to making it a career for himself, even if it’s not as a singer.”
