Earlier last week, it was revealed that the hip-hop persona know as "Rick Ross" was just another hip hop hoax. Quite like the film CB-4 when Chris Rock's character bases his rap career off of a man in his neighborhood that was incarcerated. Eventually, the man broke out of jail, trying to find Rock and kill him for stealing his identity... Tragic... Yet true. That was merely art imitating life, and here we go again! Apparently "Rick Ross" who is a coke-pushing, gun-slinging hustler extraodinaire was in fact a corrections officer bak in 1995. Documents and pictures were found of him-- thus the parody in the picture above. It is a shame that people can't be creative enough to make money off of their own creativity and being who they really are... SMH. Check out the perpetrator in his latest video:
Just when we thought it was safe to deem this man an irrelevant victim of the post z-list vortex.... He resurfaces! Al Reynolds wants you to know the real him... SO much so, that he has dedicated a YouTube Channel to show the world how he is soooo not Mr. Star Jones, and never has been... Hmmmmm. Interesting. But just in case y'all were curious... Check it out! The douche disabled embedding, so I couldn't post it here. Just click on that link above, lazy bones!
...He says Rn'B star Keyshia Cole proposed to him and he turned her down... For some reason, I highly doubt that. Smh....
Scenes like the picture above will definintely start to become more common-place with Mr. West. Kanye is crazy and will inevitably align with his equally crazy celebrity counter-parts (ie: Michael "I love little white boys" Jackson-- but I digress). Everyday the man fades sloooooowly into obscurity. I love him like a play-cousin, but he's insane. Mr. West decided to get into this Soulja Boy vs. Ice-T debate that I mentioned earlier, and has chosen to side with Soulja Boy. He refers to him as : creative, innovative, "the essence of hip hop"... Interesting. If you would like to hear more of 'Ye's rant Click Here to check out the entry on his blog...
Apparently, for the past week or so, there has been an "internet war" going on between Soulja Boy and ICE T. Ice-T basically said that S.B was garbage (which he is), in a very disrespectful manner. Soulja Boy thought it was unnecessary hate, and shot back calling Ice-T old and tired... I believe Ice-T might have ended it right here with this video. It's true, and what he's saying is too real though. Watch:
However, Paris' publicist was quick to do some damage control earlier today and has denied these rumors. Like I said, the only miracle of life here is that homegirl ate a sandwich... And boy, did she need one!
WARNING: this ish is NASTY. I am only putting it up here as a cautionary tale for any young talented lady out there that believes that the Paris-Hilton-Kim-Kardashian road to fame is the way... It's not! Buckeey should be ashamed for this mess (if this really is her), and I seriosuly doubt that this will help her "career" but if it does may snakes smite my mouth and swarms of locusts devour my body whole.... These tapes are really messing up the game people... Like my homeboy Blogxilla said... It's a damn shame. If your spirit moves you to witness the debauchery (and your of age) Click Here
I have a question. Why is this girl always talking about her ying yang? First it was "My neck, my back". Then it was "Snatch the cat back". Now she's like: "ef a theme-- I'mma just put it on out there" with "My Pu&%y"... Now, is this a female who is desperate for attention? Or is this an affirmation of some kind of pride and empowerment? I'd most likely go with the former. This is really out of control! She needs some attention. Why don't one of you nice readers get her a House of Dereon denim jumpsuit and send her on her way? We know that's all she really wants... Check out the new freak-anthem by Khia below:

Here's a shot of Mimi and her man-servant....Oops! I mean husband Nick Cannon arrived in Japan yesterday for the MTV music awards in Japan. They hammed it up for the photogs, and Mimi showed off her wedding ring... I'm sorry, But I just can't take these two seriously.... Can you?
According to MediaTakeOut.com & G-style magazine, Diddy spent Mother's Day all hugged up with his protege Cassie in central park. As you can see from these candid photos, Diddy is definitely enjoying the view from behind:
I know I said this months ago, but this might give some further confirmations for all of you on team-Kim... All two of you. Anyway, this makes me believe that Cassie truly meant what she said on her new single "Official Girl". In it, she is singing about how she is tired of being the back-burner broad and wants to become official with her boo. I'm pretty sure we can imagine who she was talking about now. I wonder how Diddy is going to clean this one up? Stay tuned...
T.I does his first interview since his release off house arrest, and his infamous weapons charges... He talks about everything from his Shawty-Lo beef to almost losing everything (WARNING: clip almost 20 mins long....sucks, I know!)
And now... His nay-sayers (King K-Dot)call him a snitch! Peep the Video Below:
Last night, Paula showed us what is really in that extra-large Coca-Cola cup she's always sippin on.... For the first time, American Idol decided to switch things up, and let the contestants all be judged after their first AND second performances respectively... When it was Paula's turn to judge Jason Castro, she judged BOTH his songs... The only problem was: he had only sang ONE song! Today on the Ryan Seacrest Show, Paula tried to blame it on "getting the notes confused" claiming that she was looking at notes for John and David Cook, and got confused... Hmmmm-- even Milli Vanilli tried to blame it on the rain. Sorry honey, I'm not buying what your selling. Don't believe me? Look at the video caption below:

I didn't want to believe it. I saw the reports yesterday from some "questionable" sources, and I just thought it was BS. But now that I see Perez, Michael K, and other super-bloggers going with the story... I have the confidence... This past weekend, Mimi was at the Toronto Film festival promoting her new film Tennesee and she was flaunting a 20 karat pink diamond engagement ring on the appropriate finger. She flashed her hands in all the shots, and got the papps buzzing like crazy. It has been noted that Mariah has secretly been dating nick Cannon for several months, and we all know how he likes to pop the question to everyone after a few weeks. At first I was a skeptic, but now I BELIEVE! Supposedly, Mariah has not given him a definitive answer yet. My guess is she's trying to break the news to her carpet-munching girlfriend Da Brat-- but maybe that's just me....

Media outlets are reporting that skank-of-the-century and all around dumbass Paris Hilton is getting married to Benji Madden. For all of you who don't know, he's Joel Madden's twin brother, and Joel is Nicole Richie's baby-daddy.... I smell the familiar stench of publicity stunt from a mile away! Apparently, the two are planning to have a double-wedding and the whole nine yards.... Hmmmm, I dunno about this but ya girl Paris has definitely been walking around town flashing a HUGE engagement ring, and she just got back to LA after being on tour with Benji's band Good Charlotte. More to come as the story develops....
...Well, that is according to some pimply-faced cyber nerd. Rob O'Connor (Yahoo.com), who probably knows little to nothing about hip hop made a list of the 25 worst rappers of all time. I have to admit, some of them were right on point, but most were WAY off. Puffy tops the list as one of the worst at #5... I can't argue with that. Puff is an entertainer and a savvy businessman, but he's noooooo rapper-- that's for sure. The others are as follows:
25. Chicago Bears, 24. Bubba Sparxxx, 23. Mike Jones, 22. Bobby Jimmy And The Critters, 21. 2 Live Crew, 20. Nelly, 19. Dan Aykroyd And Tom Hanks, 18. Chingy, 17. Elvira, 16. Insane Clown Posse, 15. Rappin' Duke, 14. Master P, 13. Tony Yayo, 12. Northern State, 11. Shaquille O'Neal, 10. Marky Mark And The Funky Bunch, 9. K-Fed, 8. Will Smith, 7. Mr. T, 6. Fred Durst, 5. Puff Daddy, 4. Dee Dee King, 3. Brian Austin Green, 2. MC Hammer, 1. Vanilla Ice. If you would like to see the full list and commentary Click Here!
Be it as it may that I have not listened to Fresh Prince since he dropped Summertime back in like... '92, there is no way a rap veteran should be on this list. And furthermore, in what world is K Fed a better rapper than MC Hammer-- and please, please someone PAHLEEZE tell me why Soulja Boy hasn't made this list. You're gonna through Bubba Sparxx up there and no Soulja Boy. OK, hell has officially frozen over-- don't you see that? It's Satan giving out free sleigh rides and ice water... Let's go!
Alicia graces the cover of the May issue of Blender Magazine and she definitely has a lot of controversial things to say! Who knew the Clive Davis-darling-diva can be so DARING? Wow... that's a lotta D's.... But I digress. Check out this snippet from her interview:
Alicia: "Gangsta rap' was a ploy to convince black people to kill each other. Gangsta rap' didn't exist."
Jonah :"A ploy by whom?"
Alicia:"The government."
(she continues)
Alicia: I been reading a lot of Black Panther autobiographies... I wear a gold AK-47 pendant to "symbolize strength, power and kill 'em dead."
Alicia goes on to say that she believes Tupac and Biggie were assassinated "by the government and the media, to stop another great black leader from existing."
She's also planning to write more political songs. She said if the late Black Panther Huey Newton “had the outlets our musicians have today, it’d be global. I have to figure out a way to do it myself."
The Associated Press contacted Alicia, but her rep said she was on vacation and not available for comment. Blender contacted Alicia's mother about the AK-47 necklace she wears and her mother responded with, “She wears what? That doesn’t sound like Alicia.”
If this is true Alicia, it's plain silly. African-Americans have been severly persecuted in the past, and probably in some covert ways today, but that is no excuse for the ridiculous, degrading, self-destructive nature of gangsta-rap. Don't get me wrong, I'll bump Biggie and Tupac in a New york minute, but I'm intelligent enough to know the difference between fantasy/entertainment and reality. Unfortunately a lot of brothers and sister don't. We can't go on forever blamin others for our ignorance. it's not secret that it is hard to be a minority, and sometimes you have to work harder to get where you wanna be, but those are the breaks baby! it makes me mad when people constantly point the finger, like that's really going to do any good for our slums and ghettos. Get a job, and get over it! Millions of other African-Americans have managed to do so-- so basically: THE JIG IS UP!
