The British Takeover

Lately, Brits have been getting a lot of radio and Billboard chart play in America but I can't complain because the music is GREAT! Posted some videos for your veiwing and listening pleasure.

He does it on purpose.....

Shawty Lo (the ashy elbow bandit) is up to his old tricks again. This time, his ash game was in full effect at the Rhythm and Soul ASCAP Awards last night. His ashy "bows" will certainly be my undoing. I am starting to think his ash is permanent......



Yep, this close up makes it THAT serious!

2 Pistols got DEBO'd by Dolla

These two "rappers" had a little scuffle yesterday. And word on the curb is that 2 Pistols got DEBO'd after talking shit:

According to reports from the artist's camp, Akon's 20-year-old artist, Dolla, got into a minor scuffle with Florida rapper 2 Pistols, which resulted in 2 Pistols -- who has been enjoying success with his hit single "She Got It" featuring T-Pain -- being knocked out.

Dolla's camp confirmed with BallerStatus.com that an altercation took place after he heard about recent public statements made by 2 Pistols claiming Dolla had "no street credibility and isn't really a rap artist from the streets."

These words stuck with Dolla. When he ran into 2 Pistols during Monday's media event, Dolla claims he confronted the rapper, which escalated into a scuffle, resulting in 2 Pistols being knocked out by "a single jab," his camp claims.

2 Pistols tells a very different story. He claims the argument was over his hit single, "She Got It" featuring T-Pain, which Dolla allegedly felt was supposed to go to him first. The Florida rapper claims the argument ended, he walked away, and then was sucker-punched. When he tried to strike back (grabbing a chair in the process), he says cops grabbed him, and Dolla and his entourage fled in the vehicles.

Whatever, this was a lover's spat that went too far. I know how it goes. But I sho can see 2 Pistols laying on the ground (Suge style) dazed and confused. He just seems soft like that. Not saying that Dolla has a threatening steeze neither. Just 2 bitches having a bitch fight.

Shaq gets his ass ate

And this is all in his own words. And also according to him, Kobe was the one giving him the rim jobs. Think I'm lying? In the video, he asks Kobe to tell him what his ass taste like. Watch the video:

shaq freestyle (Kobe Dis)
by skaybn

Well, I'm pretty sure Shaq has kissed Kobe in the mouth after he tossed his salad before, so really, he should know what his own ass tastes like. But then again, I make a lot of assumptions......

Ne-Yo's loves being a gentleman

This will be the album cover for Year of the Gentlemen. The album will be released sometime in August of this year. I love Ne-Yo and all his music, so I will be picking this one up. And I love that he is putting emphasis on being a gentlemen. He had this to say, about his album, in a recent interview:

"You don't see a lot of the class and integrity that you once saw in men, he says. You don't see that nowadays. Now it's, 'Look how big my chain is. Hey everybody, look at this car, it costs a million dollars and I don't know how to drive it.' I didn't want my third album to be that in any way, shape, form or fashion."

All I gots ta say is: Git it boy.....
And I left you guys with one of his new song I really like, Let's Just Be

Will Smith on JET! magazine

I love this picture of Will Smith (as Hancock) I bust up laughing every time I see it. But I digress........


....this January I found out that Black [some; not many] people still read JET! Magazine. And I only figured that out while getting the mail for my grandmother and auntie, they have a subscription. But they didn't know they had one and had no idea who was paying for it. And yesterday, I seen a MAY issue still on the magazine stand at my local Walgreens. So I guess JET! is alive a kicking. But I'm pretty sure, SISTER 2 SISTER MAG has more readers. Thought I get that off my chest.

TI covers July issue of XXL

Clifford is the July cover boy for XXL. Even though he was put on house arrest for buying machines guns and whatnot, he has been having a pretty good year. Clifford is one of the best in the game. I wish Shawty Lo would figure that out...... Hey, it doesn't hurt for a girl to dream!!!!!

A good day to be black and woman

For the first time ever Italy Vogue will feature only Black models in the pages of their July 2008 issue. And finally!!! Black women (as a collective) are one of the biggest fashion consumers (we spend $20 billion a year on clothes!)in the world. But still, we aren't really represented on the runways and in commercials. Luckily, there are still photographers like Steve Meisel out there that know the real:

For the July issue of Italian Vogue, Mr. Meisel has photographed only black models. In a reverse of the general pattern of fashion magazines, all the faces are black, and all the feature topics are related to black women in the arts and entertainment. Mr. Meisel was given roughly 100 pages for his pictures. The issue will be on European newsstands next Thursday and in the United States soon after.
Under its editor, Franca Sozzani, Italian Vogue has gained a reputation for being more about art and ideas than commerce. Ms. Sozzani also doesn’t mind controversy.


I only read VOGUE on occasion (i.e When I'm in a really nice restroom in like Nordstrom's or Bloomingdales. The bathrooms are top notch by the way!) but I will be sure to pick up this issue. And this adds on to America being on the verge of having a FIRST BLACK FAMILY in the white house.

Boss Lady gone off that gin

"Rolling down the street smoking indo, sipping on gin and juice." She took her husband words a little too literally:

Shante Broadus, 32, was stopped by police near Highland and Orangethorpe avenues about 12:15 a.m. and arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence, said Fullerton Police Lt. Craig Brower.
Broadus, a resident of Sherman Oaks, was taken to Fullerton City Jail, where she was booked, issued a citation to appear in court and released, Brower said.

So she was arrested for being blasted while driving. But where the hell was her make-up artists? Does she have a ProActiv prescription? I'm confused! *sigh*

R. Kelly is aquitted of ALL charges

Well, slap me silly and call me Halle [Berry], R. Kelly is free to roam the land and write songs about fucking his hair braider. The jury deliberated for 7.5 hours before they found him not guilty on 14 child pornography charges. A little sumthin' of what the news is reporting:

Only one witness testified to having direct knowledge of an inappropriate relationship between Kelly and the alleged victim. Lisa Van Allen told the jury she engaged in a series of sexual encounters with the singer and his goddaughter when the girl was a minor.

The defense tried to undermine Van Allen's testimony by accusing her of concocting the story to extort money from Kelly. Van Allen, who lives in Georgia, called prosecutors with information about the case shortly after her fiance was arrested on guns and weapons charges.

Kelly's attorneys contended the young woman in the tape is not the alleged victim but a prostitute. They called three family members of the alleged victim who testified that they saw no resemblance between their relative and the female in the video.

I knew R. Kelly wasn't going to jail for this. The alleged victim denied being in the tape. And they been denying it since 2002. Her and her family decided not to testify. Then the prosecution gets a faulty ass, broke ass witness with interior motives. There were holes as big as my head in this case but they still took it to trial. Whoever slapped this case together should be slapped. That is all.

Another Vick goes to jail

Marcus Vick is the younger brother of Micheal Vick and former quarterback for Virginia Tech. So this nigga was arrested for DUI and eluding the police.

Police said a uniformed bicycle patrol officer observed Vick and a female involved in an altercation in the car early Friday. When the officer asked for a driver's license, police say Vick sped away but was stopped minutes later.

Vick failed a field sobriety test and was charged with DUI, misdemeanor eluding police, reckless driving and driving on a suspended license. The passenger, Delicia Cordon of Miami, Fla., was charged with being drunk in public.

And are you serious? My nigga get like me and get some common sense. It works. I mean, I get by everyday....

Meagan Good and Thomas Jones

I like Meagan Good for some odd reason. I really do. Lately, she has been looking a little "off" but she quickly got herself together for the premiere for The Love Guru, which comes out this Friday, I think. I'm not sure, I'm going to go see The Happening.

Mashonda is a classy lady

So rumor has it that Alicia Keys was the woman that came between Swiss Beatz and his wife Mashonda. But she doesn't have any bad harsh words for her ex or Alicia, she actually seems at peace with the whole situation. She said this to Hip Hop Weekly:

[Alicia Keys] is her own woman and she has made her own choices. I don’t have a problem with her. I will say this though, I am not a scorned woman. I have a responsibility to raise [my son], he’s my number one priority and everyday I strive more for him and of course my music.”

Go on girl and kill them with your kindness!!! I really like that Mashonda is taking the high road and decided to not be messy in the media. There is really no point in all that. She got over because she had to. And it's not about her, it's about her child. They way it should be.......

Shawty Lo other elbow was just as ashy (maybe even slight ashier) than the other elbow. I can't understand how someone can buy jewelry and not lotion. This kind of shit only happens when you have no one who truly cares for you. Because a real loved one would have been told you.....

The woes of wifing a hoe

Last week Superhead texted Perez Hilton to say that Darius McCrary (b.k.a Eddie Winslow) was trying to run her over with his car. He is now speaking out:

In a restraining order filed against Karrine, Darius says he didn't hit her with his car -- she "jumped on the trunk of my car and then the roof of my car. She started beating my vehicle and windows." It says she then attempted to get into the car by breaking the windows "with her fist."

Now he has filed a restraining order against his bitch. But he should have heeded the saying: Never turn a hoe into a housewife! I mean, she sucked every industry dick and then wrote about it. His bad. But I know Superhead is loving all this free publicity. Her third book is hitting shelves real soon. Things that make you say 'Hmmmmmmmmmm....'

I knew this would happen....

The Carter III drops today and it's already getting bad reviews:


Now with the release of "Tha Carter III," Wayne attempts live up to his own hype, but falls short. The disc is a frustratingly uneven effort that's filled safe songs aimed at commercial radio and a few quirky cuts that feature Wayne's bizarre sense of humor
and inflated opinion of his rap skills. The best of the latter is "A Milli," a bizarre, breathless rundown of Wayne's self-worth.

It's a cold muthafuckin' world. But on the real, I heard The Carter III last week and was extremely disappointed. It sounded like a drunk nigga was rapping on it. But will it sale? I'll be keeping tabs. I am encouraging people to copy it instead of spending money on it.

A new DRANK

DRANK is an ANTI ENERGY DRINK that gives you the feeling that you are drinking some of that LEAN. According to the makers:

From design to production, every aspect of this calming drink was inspired by today’s popular hip hop artists who embrace the much sought-after hip hop lifestyle that encourages people to capture a stress-free state of mind.

I know I might promote marijuana and people say it's bad but weed is from da ERF. God put it here for ME and YOU.... but I digress. An anti energy drink that resembles Sizzurp? To the inventors of this: Bitches go away!!!!

Alicia Keys body

Alicia Keys performed at a Summer Jam in New Jersey and these pics have been in circulation on the net since. I read the comments that was associated with these pictures on a certain blog and every comment was hateful. Someone mentioned that she was flabby, she looked disgusting and needs to do 1000 sit ups a day and one person even said she had a muffin top. And all the comments were from other Black women. Black women, why we gotta be haters to the 3rd degree? Alicia Keys looks great right here. And for anyone to even fix their mouths to say anything different is a hater. She was wearing the hell out of those jeans and that little wife beater. And those boots are past FLY!!!! So Alicia keep representing for the woman that has some extra "holdage."



That is all!

Can we please take a moment to admire his FUCHSIA slippers and shiny silver clutch purse? I'm staring in amazement! And Naomi, just because you are BAT SHIT CRAZY doesn't mean you have to dress the part. I bet that was one hell of a fight between her and MC Hammer's old touring closet. She only gets a pass because the shit is shiny and I'se like shiny thangs!

The Rock is single!!!!

Shesus, the thangs I would do to that man!!!!! Dwayne Johnson B.K.A The Rock has divorced his wife of 10 years. But this is no ugly divorce. They both waived alimony and both will pay child support for their daughter. And they plan to continue to be friends.

“We’ve been fortunate enough to spend the last 17 years together as a couple and look forward to spending the rest our lives together as best friends and business partners,” the statement said. “We will continue to advance and manage our business interests, our philanthropic efforts and most importantly the raising of our child together.”


Sounds like this divorce was a long time coming. They split too easily. But on the real, this is how easy it should always be. People change and so do they feelings. The best thing to do is move on because you have to. And sounds like they are both bowing out gracefully.
