May 7, 2008

So Nick and Mariah are coming out with wedding pics ( take note Jayonce) and talking about the surprise, bahamian ceremony and 6 week courtship(!), 6 weeks huh, It takes longer for a baby to be born.

Nas single leaked- “Be a N***** Too”

April 22, 2008

After months of speculation, controversy and conversations the first leak from Nas’s new Album “Nigger” is out.
The song is called “Be a Nigger too”. I said I was going to wait until I heard it to make a judgment, but I’m still not so sure about this.
Take a listen.

B****A**ness Alert- 50 Cent

April 20, 2008

Two quarters is mad at Alicia Keys for her comment in Blender Magazine. Curtis had this to say about Alicia Keys and her thoughts on gansta rap.

What did you think of Alicia Keys’ comments regarding gangsta rap in Blender?
50 cent: I don’t like Alicia Keys no more.
She clarified the comments, though.
50 cent: If she thinks what they consider [to be] gangsta music is [made] to bring black people down then I think my sh*t falls into that category. I don’t like people who don’t like me. I don’t like her then because that’s what provides the life for me. I think if you ask Ice Cube the same shit, he’ll tell you, “F*ck Alicia Keys” for even saying that. Because the success he’s had as an actor and a businessman, there was no opportunity for that sh*t without N.W.A. But I don’t think that [her] classical sh*t is cool. I don’t give a f*ck if you can classically play the piano. I haven’t been classically trained, because my upbringing, nobody put me in front of a piano at that time. If they did, I would know how to do it as well as she does. I could learn how to play the piano if I was passionate about it right now. That’s obviously my perspective evaluating what she does, and I could f*ck*ng care less about the sh*t. So she don’t like the music that embodies the harsh realities because they’re not her realities. She hasn’t been subjected to the same things.

B****A**ness Alert!!- Fake Crime doesn’t pay, A-”Con”

April 17, 2008

Yeah you should feel convicted!
Yeah you SHOULD feel “Konvicted”!

Diddy was right, Bitchassness is a disease affecting our community and Akon is the newest victim. This dude has faked his jail time! You know how he supposedly went to prison for 3 whole, horrible years filled with violence and moments that inspired his hit song “Locked up.” Well turns out that’s a big fat lie!!

Chris Stokes Holds distraction/ talent contest

April 15, 2008

Wow!! talk about a serious attempt to hid some bad press!! in case you haven’t heard it ( or thought it was a joke like I did) Chris “What What in the Butt” Stokes is seriously holding a Star Search like youtube competition. OF course anybody with a web cam and a slice of talent is trying to upload a video, but popular video bloggers (Jia, B.Scott and a host of others) are calling it out as a sad attempt to make the public forget about the Molestation allegations that have been swirling around.
