Run DMC inducted in Hall of Fame


RUN DMC was inducted in Rock in Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland Ohio. The hip hop pioneers were inducted 25 years after their debut album was released. Darryl McDaniels & Rev. Joseph Simmons both accepted their award together. I'm sure this was a bitter sweet moment for the two emcees, they lost their DJ and third member Jason "Jam Master Jay" Mizell in 2002.

Little Miss. Sunshine is Little Miss. Gangster


Rihanna, Rihanna, Rihanna. That name stays on everyone lips, from fights with C. Breezy, to dating Fex, looking for a new home, and Gun tats. I'm through with Rih and can't and wont post anything else about her, unless it has something to do with music.


The tats are a bit much however sexy, I like. Rihanna is a power house and I think that she just realized it and is taking advantage of all the media circus. I must say the bitch is fly, from fashion to tats, but this is too much of nothing. Rihanna return to the studio please, your on overdrive doing fuck issh. I ♥ Rih but have to question if she is becoming the first black Britney Spears? (Not Britney the performer but the crazy media tramp) QUESTION?

Mr. International


My hip hop crush Method Man just shot a video with Redman for Mr. International. I'm happy to see Method Man making a comeback. But I ♥ me some Cheese (The Wire), Method is a better actor, than rapper. And if he focus more on acting I believe he will be hip hop next Will Smith. Everyone is sleeping on Meth, while I'm dreaming of sleeping with Meth. This would be my one groupie moment. Okay I'm lying two groupie moments, my other one is Shawn Corey "Jay Z" Carter.

Method and Reggie Nobel aka Redman

It should be against the law to be this damn fine

Divorceville


Dame Dash and Rachel Roy is headed down divorce ville. After four years, two kids, threats of repossessions, foreclosures and bankruptcy later the couple has split. Dame stepped down as CEO of Rocafella Records and Rocawear and since then Dame has been known for bad business deals and debt. The couple married in January 2005, and started a women's clothing line. (Don't worry I've never heard anything about it either) Unfortunately, for the Dashes shortly after getting married Dame went through a divorce with his business partner Shawn "Jay Z" Carter. And like any good divorce someone cant stand alone which proves to be Dame. Sad for Rachel I don't believe that Dame can afford alimony or child support. In this case Rachel is cheaper to keeper her (or him).

I remember Dame bragging that he don't wear the same under clothes twice, I wonder who's washing the white clothes now?

Queen Bey is also, Queen Endorsement adding Nintendo DS to her long list of endorsements. Her latest endorsement Beyonce and nephew Juelz will be featured in a commercial for Nintendo DS game Rhythm Heaven. While so many tries to throw shade Bey's way, this girl has a permanent umbrella, that covers her straight to the bank.

New Video Ciara ft Justin Timberlake Love Sex Magic



The folks over at Beyonceworld is on pre-rumor control, Beyonce shot a video for "EGO" a while back which Jason at Beyonceworld says is very similar to "Love Sex Magic" and they want everyone to know that Bey did shot her video first. Check out what they saying.

Okay, so Ciara "Sex Love Magic" video hit the internet a couple of days ago. Very Hot video, so kudos to Ciara, that's because Bee's done it all before. And not only that, but she's also completely jacked her hair and outfit (well, whole look) from Ego rehearsal video. I bet when Ego video comes out everyone will say that Beyonce copied Ciara, but Ego was shot a while ago.

I like the video, I'm unsure on how I feel about the song. I'm a huge fan of Kanye and Ne-yo so I'm sure this song will grow on me soon. Today is the release date for Keri's debut album In a Perfect World. Well I wont be checking for In a Perfect World, I'll be purchasing Deeper than Rap, Rick Ro$$ third album drops today too.

She's Back!!


Rihanna was spotted having dinner at the Spotted Pig in New York. She and her celebrity friends Jay Z, wife Beyonce, & Brandy celebrated Rihanna's belated birthday. Sidebar, I'm wondering what dinner conversation was like. I'm sure her and Chris was not the discussion.

Rihanna and Brandy seems to be enjoying each others company.

Solange was involved in a tour bus crash last night. In Solange style she twitted about it, she reported that her bus crashed into a herd of deer. Solange was OK but a band member hurt his hand. Check out Solange message.

"I'm on the phone baking like Betty in my bus bunk and CRASH! Thought I was dead, but turns out we ran into a family of deer," "I can't believe it. Were all ok tho! Guitar player flew out of bunk n hurt his hand a little...But I'm saying a huge prayer of thanks right now. God is good ALL the time!"

Unfortunately, one of the deer did not survive the accident. "Really sad for the deer. One didn't make it,"

Happy Birthday, Robin Thicke


Birthday boy, Robin Thicke celebrated his b-day with wife Paula Patton and Jay Z at Waverly Inn Restaurant in NYC.

Jigga is refusing to get a haircut, this may means the Blue Print 3 is finally coming. All Jay Z fans know that he don't get a haircut while he is in the studio recording. He is like Samson the strenght is in his hair.

Keyshia Cole performs "You Complete Me"

He say, She say but what did Diddy say?



Sean "Diddy" Combs cleared the air on Ellen's Show yesterday. For the first time a celebrity has commented truthfully. Ellen tried to clown Diddy about opening up his home for Chris & Rihanna, but like Diddy he made sure that he had the last word. Letting Ellen and America know that he wasn't in that car, she wasn't in that car so he don't know what happened. He went on to say "that no one should hit", "he shouldn't hit her, or she shouldn't hit him." Amen! I'm glad to hear someone say something that is not one sided.

The biggest statement that was made was I wasn't in that car, and you wasn't in that car! America STFU this drama is spread so thin. It is the most talked about topic in the last couple of years. From Oprah to Good Morning America. Women forget that we as women will follow our heart and Rihanna will do the same. Good luck to them whatever it is they choose to do. I know that this is not the last time we will hear about this. So stay tuned to see what next on the Young & Rich-ness staring Chris Brown & Robin F.

A Child of Destiny

LOVE versus MONEY

The Dream new CD drops today, but the party was on last night. The Dream, Ne-yo, Busta Rhymes, Christiana Millian and Teyanna Taylor celebrated the release of The Dream latest CD.

The Dream with Christiana Millian I'm starting to like the blond on her. But is it me or do Christiana keep a producer, songwriter boyfriend. I ain't saying she is fucking for tracks but I can see why she is accused of doing so.

Busta, Ne-yo hiding and Beanie Man

Busta Rhymes where's the jewels, the recession is hitting us all, The hell the with Arab money

Tenaya Taylor is becoming the new underage partier, but I still love her.


Busta Rhymes (is always at a good party) and Beanie Man

What a "Tease"



Kanye West is a tease, well thats all your gone to get a teaser of Kanye featured in Keri Hilson new video "Love Making" until it premieres. I love Kanye in this video, but to me he can do no wrong. He is showing us a sexier side to him, and its a good look. I'm still on the edge about this song, I'm not sure if I am turned on or off, yet.

Two weeks ago, I would have been a little excited to see a third release from her. But now she I can say I am not a fan. I was turned off with the "leaking of the remix" and Polow dumb ass comments on Ryan Cameron radio show. I'm not checking for Keri, but I'm a lover of Ye' so I can see myself watching this video on MTV Jams. Thats all the play I'm giving Keri. Will March 30 hurry, I need to know if she dropped in at #94 on Billboard hot 100.

Lil Kim dancing with the Stars


I was pleasantly surprised at Lil Kim's performance on last night Dancing with the Stars. She was the first to perform and set the bar high, I wouldn't be shocked if Kim takes it all the way. I will keep you posted and follow her every week.

No Beef No More, unfinished beef

T.I & Shawty Lo man up and shake hands at Club Crucial in Atlanta

This is a great look for hip hop, Beef is so 1999, with talent and hardwork Im sure its room for everyone in the game.




Atlanta rappers T.I and Shawty Lo has shaken hands and squashed beef. T.I performed at Club Crutical in Atlanta as part of his final tour, before he goes off to prison. While on stage T.I was greeted by Shawty Lo with his hand extended to shake hands. Both MEN shook hands, took pictures, and is now over the Tip versus Shawty Lo fuckery.






Keri relax and take notes (I know I said no more Keri Hilson). I had to despite promising other wise, Ciara was interviewing on V106 with Ryan Cameron, & Polow (Mr. Attention himself) when Ryan asked her about Keri's Turning me off remix. While Ciara handled herself as a woman you can tell that she was a lil pissed off that Keri although denying that she was talking about Beyonce, or Ciara still talking reckless. I must say that this is the pettiest way of gaining attention, but however she should of been woman enough to say yes I was talking about you two, and so what. You be the judge.

Not So Hip Hop News





CLEVELAND (March 6) - Police searched Friday for a newlywed suspected of killing his wife, his sister-in-law and three young children in one of the city's most horrific shootings in years.

The victims were found Thursday night on the top floor a two-family home on the city's west side, police said.

Authorities said they were searching for 33-year-old Davon Crawford, whose wife, Lechea Crawford, 30, was among those killed.

Police identified the other victims as Lechea Crawford's sister Rose Stevens, 25, and her three children: Destiny Woods, 4; and 2-year-old twins Dion and Davion Primm. A fifth child was wounded and being treated at MetroHealth Medical Center, hospital spokeswoman Susan Christopher told The Plain Dealer.
Authorities had previously said the victims were one woman and four children; there was no immediate explanation Friday for the discrepancy.

A police helicopter assisted in the search and authorities were checking transit system buses.

"It's probably one of the worst multiple shootings that I've seen in a long time," said Police Chief Michael McGrath.

Outside the home, Lamar Arnold told The Plain Dealer that Crawford, whom he recognized from a police photo shown on television, was the man who had married his daughter on Monday.



Arnold said his daughter had sent him an unusual cell phone text message at 7:47 p.m. Thursday saying "Call me, live your life, love it."

"Then I tried to call her about 12 times, and there never was an answer," he said.
Police said there were two rental units in the house, and all the victims were killed in the upstairs apartment. The building is on a tree-lined street of older, mostly two-story frame houses and some apartment buildings.

India Cobb told WJW-TV she saw Crawford, whom she identified as a cousin, earlier Thursday and nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

"It didn't seem anything was wrong or anything like that," Cobb said. "He just got married ... He just had a baby girl. I don't understand what went wrong. I don't know what happened. I'm still trying to find out myself."



A crowd milled around late Thursday near the home, including some who said they were family and friends of the victims.

Shortly after midnight, about four hours after the shootings, several women whom police had let into the cordoned-off area came back in tears, got into a car and left. Another woman walked away from the scene.

The Saga Continues....



Chris Brown and Rihanna drama continues...this time in court. Rihanna was a no show at court today. But her attorney Donald Etra did appear. However it looks like he was their to assit Chris Brown defense attorney. Chris court date was postponed to April 6. We will have stay tuned as the saga unfolds.

Rick Ross step out on his own

Rick Ross is releasing his first CD on his new label Maybach Music Group. His new album Deeper than Rap,releases on March 24. We will have have to stay tuned for album sales for that week, seeing that Keri Bono and her mushroom will be releasing he debut album that week. Lets see who beef will pay off.

Rick Ross released his video for my new JAM "Magnificent" featuring John Legend.

Yo, Mama TMZ


It takes rapper T.I to tell TMZ off. While filming something for Kathy Griffin show TMZ catches up with T.I who tells them off. T.I was asked by one of the camera men who would he rather be in jail with Chris Brown or (not sure)? He answers YO MAMA. Then when Kathy Griffin be giving him conjugal visits he answers again, Yo mama. However childish this seems I'm definitely thinking that's right Tip you tell them. TMZ is way to nosey and they are always doing too much. (IE, the release of Rihanna photo)

I will update this post once I find the TMZ video...this post is To be continued..

Attention Whore Alert

Keri rocking her tribute to Sonny Bono hairdo, or hairdont...I debuted with my good friend Elise that I wasn't going to be a big Keri Hilson fan just based off her hairdo and what do you know I'm still not feeling her. My granny always said you can judge a woman based on her hair and man based on his shoes. Sorry Keri its my grannys fault!


We have a new attention whore people. Keri Hilson has now added her name to this list. Diddy, Soulja Boy and Solange can now add one more to their class. Keri Hilson "Turning me off remix" leaked over the weekend, in which she is sneaking dissing. Now she is releasing daily youtube videos, count downing her album release. On her March 4Th video she says that she is working on her version of Soulja Boy "Swag On" and that she have something to clear up and that she will address it on their. What could it be! Lawd, help this chile her career is slipping right through her fingers with her fist drawn. Let me excuse myself another Keri Hilson post is killing me.

I don't do attention whores so Keri unless you kill someone this week I can not and will not post about you in this seven day period. (PERIOD) Well unless Beyonce or Ciara responds, than that would be exception.



The Saga continues.......

The new Ike & Tina, Bobby & Whitney, Bonnie & Clyde, or a future Snapped episode you be the judge

I am so over the whole Chris Brown Rihanna drama. I think that these two are kids, look at their child like behavior they fought and made up. Like kids they have totally forgotten about all the drama that's around them and they are living happily ever after. While the adults are still wondering why are they back hanging. Well I have the answer for that question, because THEY ARE KIDS! Sidebar, when my two boys are outside and they start fighting with their friends I never go out in my robe and rollers looking for the other kids parents, because in twenty minutes they will be back playing together. Know look the media and blogs (not me) made a big fuss over the drama and these two are back playmates.

Now back to the story, here's the updates. Chris is due in court this morning, no one is expecting Rihanna to show up. However I'm hearing that the state have enough to continue without her as a witness. But, I'm also hearing that the state does not plan on charging Chris with domestic abuse. So is it safe to say that this was a fight, not domestic abuse. I'm not sure we will have to stay tuned for what happens in court today.

Besides court, rumors are flying that these two got engaged this weekend in Miami, and that they may have eloped. (So where is the marriage license) I'm not believing this like I'm not believing that she is pregnant. Well if this isn't the modern day Bonnie & Clyde, or they maybe exactly what Johnta' Austin calls them Our time Ike & Tina. Whatever we want to call them, they are still two kids in love!

I'm can't wait until the day all the "SOURCES" STFU, please a source is nothing more than a person who emails a blog and say I'm Rihanna cousin friend and "blah, blah, blah."


Even Dr. Phil had to chime in on The View, yesterday. Damn Dr. Phil please domestic abuse should of been a topic way before Chris Brown & Rihanna. So no one watch Snapped, that's the reason 75% of the men are killed (DUH).


UPDATE

Chris Brown has been charged with two felonies, including assault and making criminal threats by the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office, reports the Associated Press. His arraignment hearing is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. PT today.
The charges are the latest development in a drama that began nearly a month ago when he and girlfriend Rihanna canceled appearances at the Feb. 8 Grammys as Brown was booked and released in Los Angeles on a felony charge of suspicion of making a criminal threat to a woman.

And while police had not named the woman in the case, hours before the incident, Brown, 19, was seen leaving a Feb. 7 pre-Grammys party with girlfriend Rihanna, 21.

Kelly Rowland bone marrow search


Kelly Rowland is a true child of destiny. She reached out to a six year in search of finding a bone marrow match. Jasmina Amena was diagnosed with Leukemia in January, and is searching for a bone marrow match. Yesterday, on her 6Th birthday Kelly Rowland surprised Jasmina when she visited her in the hospital and took pictures and signed autographs.



Kelly went on to say
“I hope everyone finds it in their hearts to come out on Saturday for the donor drive. After spending time with Jasmina I am personally committed to making sure everyone realizes the importance a simple wipe of a swab could be – it could save her life.”

Kurtis Hilson



Keri Hilson or should I say Kurtis Hilson, is getting her 50Cent on. Over the weekend a remix to Turning me Off remix was leaked, this is not a shocker. However her SNEAK DISS to Beyonce and Ciara was a SHOCKER!

Is Keri to early in her career for this, or is this another plot by Polow the Don (we know he loves attention). I think its safe to say that its more damaging to her career to call out Beyonce and Ciara. As a solo artist Keri is a rookie, Ciara is not really an all star but she sure in the hell has a fan base, Beyonce of these two are definitely Michael Jordan.

I did my research and come to find out Keri Hilson never wrote for Beyonce directly, however she did write Love in the Club Remix which features Beyonce. She did produce Ciara's Promise but never penned for Ciara. So, is Keri Hilson looking for attention, or is she on her Kurtis. Just trying to create enough buzz to sale some records. I'll take #2 for $500 Alex, I believe that she is a little nervous about her album dropping and is trying to create a little buzz around it.


Ciara is more likely to reply, than Bey and I do expect her to go off...She should hit Keri with Lil Kim famous line to Foxy "Be Glad I push my album back I did you hoes a favor..Note to Ciara just drop the (S) on hoes to keep from stepping on anyone else feet


Lets break down these lyrics,
“I ain’t trying to start no mess but there’s something on my chest/ that I need to get off/ cause you turning me off /your vision cloudy if you think you the best, you can dance/ you can sing / but need to move it to the left/She need to go have some babies/She need to sit down she fake/them other chicks ain’t even worth my time to talk about/Been getting dollars/ go and get your money up” No you ain't the only homie on me lined up/“Go head tell these folks how long I’ve been writing your songs. I’ve been putting you on. Just check the credits Hoe” And if you want me you can find me in Decatur hoe

You can sing, you can dance“ This could be Beyonce, Ciara is really not a singer

But need to move it to the left She maybe referencing Bey on this one

How long i been writing your songs” Neither Beyonce nor Ciara

“I been putting you on” definitely not talking about Beyonce

She need to go have some babies/She need to sit down she fake/them other chicks ain’t even worth my time to talk about We'll she maybe talking about Beyonce, since shes married all the talk is about her getting pregnant

Been getting dollars/ go and get your money up” We'll not Beyonce again, remember Bey grossed 80million in 2008...Keri bank account ain't fucking with that

“your vision cloudy if you think you the best” Seeing that Beyonce has a very successful career, she is an international superstar, and theirs no other female in R&B on Beyonce level, but Alicia Keys

I checked the credits on all three of Beyonce CD's, and both of Ciara's and Keri Hilson, haven't penned anything for neither one of them. I have to say that this song sounds very personal. It maybe a sneak diss at Beyonce because of Diva. But if my memory serves me right Beyonce says in Diva All my ladies give it up, when I see you I do the same. So Bey is not hating on anyone, whats the problem Kurtis Hilson?

Beyonce should hit Keri with Mims famous line "I can sell a mill sell you nothing on the track" I quess Kurtis didn't hear her when she said you must not know bout me, don't your ever for a second get to thinking your IRREPLACEABLE!


We all know that Beyonce will not respond to Kurtis sneak diss. But it sure would be nice if she do. Well Ciara just might I think if her back is up against the wall and she would come out swinging. Beyonce is laughing at Keri asking herself did this bitch forget that I had the fourth quarter on lock, or that I've sold 3 million CD's in three months.

I love that Kurtis is going off on someone, were just unsure who. But Kurtis is going down like Ryan Leslie, and Sean Garrett as writers that can write for others but cant pen a hit for theirselves. In my research I came to find out that Kurtis is the gift and the curse. If she writes for you, but is not features on your track its more likely to become a hit. But if shes featured on the track, well dont expect it to debut on Billboard charts at all. Example Chris Brown ft. Keri Hilson "Superhuman", Nas ft Keri Hilson "Hero" Rich Boy ft Keri Hilson "Good Things" I think it is safe to say that Keri may not pull off the ultimate R&B beef but she sure cooked up a hot plate of FUCKERY!!
