Maybe Lil Wayne has a soft spot after all. Remember a few days ago, a video went viral of the YMCMB rapper dissing the hell out of the Miami Heat and a few of it’s player, as well as calling himself the new Pac (Tupac Shakur) in his reference to sticking Heat’s player, Chris Bosh’s wife. Well, he most had a sit down with someone who told him to reflect on what he did and if it was a good thing do to, because he sat down with Miami, FL 99 Jamz radio station personality, Felicia Monae to issue an open apology to the entire city of Miami for calling out its local team, well Lebron James because of their friendship and he knowing Bron’s mom. He however said that he doesn’t apologize for that night.
“I don’t apologzie for that night. I don’t apologize for being who I am. That’s who I am. This is who I am and yes I did say those things.”
Asking if he apologize for calling himself the new Pac and saying he smashed Chris Bosh’s wife? As simply put, in his own words, “That ain’t important.”
Was just telling someone the other day that we (adults) could learn a lot from kids. Aside from the level of education, kids make better teachers. For instance, I’m sure many of you are aware of internet sensation, and no, not PSY Gangnam Style. But Kid President. Kid President is back, giving America a pep talk and quite frankly, it’s the best pep talk ever. It’s not long winded. It’s about 3 minutes 32 seconds straight to the chase truth this young fellow is coming with. Thanks to Rainn Wilson and his son’s soulpancake.com website for giving us this needed pep talk.
Check out Kid President giving the greatest 3 minutes 32 seconds Pep Ever in HISTORY!
It’s not okay for anyone to get teased but is it okay for school officials to tell a student to get a breast reduction if she no longer wants to get bullied by other students? Should a person reshape their life just to appease others? Quite frankly, most kids in middle school don’t stay connected with one another after going to high schools. And usually friendships change. As the parent of this 13 year old girl whose victim of bullying by her classmates for having large breasts, surely many parents would be upset to hear that, yet would be more upset that the school isn’t taking greater measures to protect this kid.
See parent speak out about her daughter being the victim of bullying at her school because of her large breasts.
The LOX is the truth man. Styles P is a BEAST! But you know, most BEASTS don’t sell in today’s industry. However, with his new joint, ‘Pop Out’, it still proves that the homie is one of the dopest in this hip hop game to do it.
Who cares about Kevin Clash aka the voice of Elmo (Sesame Street) is gay? Well the kids do and parents are definitely going to have a hard time explaining the sex scandal and that Mr. Clash has resigned after nearly three decades of being the voice of Elmo. What will happen to the rates PBS and Sesame Street due to his departure after a second accuser has come forth, claiming he, in 1993 being fifteen years old at the time, meet the puppeteer on a gay phone chatline? Damage has indeed been done. Perhaps excluding the character Elmo from the famous children show will help keep a clean image at PBS. Maybe we’ll be saying R.I.P. to Sesame Street soon, because what is Sesame Street without Elmo.
The funniest video ever done by a hip hop artist was the deposition of Lil Wayne when going through the lawsuit matter against QD3 . Wayne lost the counter-suit, however one could never forget the footage of Lil Wayne seeming to threaten Quincy Jones III’s lawyer, Peter Ross when asked a certain question, to which Wayne’s response was “I was talking to myself”, amongst other things. G-Unit honcho, 50 Cent must had thought it was hilarious too, as he imitated Wayne when speaking about Maybach Music (Rick Ross) rapper, Gunplay. During the interview with Booska-P, a french rap website, 50 talked growth as an artist/entrepreneur, Mobb Deep’s fans turning against them, ending beef with Fat Joe (Terror Squad), etc.
This is some sick mess. He literally took the biblical scripture that reads ‘an eye for an eye’ (Exodus 21:24) to another level. Did the Holy Ghost lead him to do this? This post is not to ridicule Christianity nor its’ pastors. But I’m wondering, what was in the mind of these alleged ‘victims’ to even do some of the things he requested of them to do? Yeah, the pastor is indeed sick. Consequently, those men gave him the opportunity to do such horrific things in the name of Jesus. I’m done. Too disturbing to write move.
See the news and hear the charges brought against this sick man.
Even since before the demise of one of the more outspoken Clan’s members (not to be mistakened for the Ku Klux Klan, an organization againt anything black, Jewish, or homosexual), O.D.B. (Ol Dirty Bastard) aka Dirt McGirt, the Staten Island, New York rap group better known as the Wu-Tang Clan hasseem to gone up in smoke. Surely not forgotten, as fans for over the years have been anticipating a Wu reunion. Though there has been much talk about it from various clan members, nothing seems to have sufficed. Everyone wants it. But does the Wu want it?
Check out Raekwon’s interview below, speaking on his hopes and conditions for a Wu-Tang Clan reunion.
Guys if you know your woman is crazy be careful about what you tell her, or not. Ask the man who didn’t vote in the previous election between re-elected United States of America’s president, Barack Obama and Republican candidate, Mitt Romney. Daniel Solomon of Phoenix Arizona didn’t vote for Obama nor Romney and was left in serious condition after his wife ran him down with the family’s car, proclaiming that Obama won all because Daniel refused to vote.
PAUSE! Now I can understand why she would be upset about President Obama’s victory; however, to blame her husband for that is quite absurd. There were thousands of people across the country that didn’t exercise their voting rights. That’s too much blame to put on one person. What was the real issue she ran down her husband? If the president’s re-election was really the case then lady has serious issues. Yet if it were other issues leading up to the incident, then she should have talked it through with her husband and perhaps a counselor in between instead of going H.A.M. like that.
Politics these days has made a lot of people gone mad. There has never been so much rage in the history of American politics before. Now all of a sudden, people are going, as they say in the NY, ‘bananas son’. Word to the wise; before doing something STUPID because certain things aren’t going your way; how about taking positive measures towards working on changing that. I know a part of the heading says she “allegedly” ran over her husband because he didn’t vote. Yet more than likely, it’s true. Take notice of her mug shot. Mr. Solomon stated that his wife believed their family would face hardship if re-elected. But didn’t the economic worsen while former Republican president George W. Bush was in office during the latter years of his re-election? Hmmmmm.
I hate being the reporter of bad news, especially when teachers are involved, because I’m one. And I also know the feeling of losing great teachers. And those I don’t know this woman, nor her husband, it’s heartbreaking to even report this story. So I’m going to conclude it by saying this; from Beijing, China by way of Atlanta, Georgia, R.I.P. to Jennifer Longworth and her husband, John Dion Longworth. My prayers goes out to the family, staff and students at Greenwood’s Southwest Elementary School. Sharing in your pain and lost.
Funny, but I can relate. It happens to me here in China. Well, I wouldn’t say it’s 100% because I’m a black American, or simply American. However, I’m sure race plays a factor. Wondering if my Caucasian American expat friends received the same praise through the years, as it is indeed fair to say that out of the few black Americans who has run for president in the past, only ONE has won. So I reckon that’s why the praise is to the extreme at times. Though this is comedy, there’s some reality to it for sure.
November, 2008 when then Senator Barack Obama was elected President of the United States of America in his win against Senate John McCain, had to be one of the proudest moments of modern black and American history. The face of America changed right before our very eyes and many were proud of being alive to witness something so momentous. Fast forward to four years later, the joy is much louder as President Barack Obama has been re-elected and will seat four more years in office in his presidency due to his victory over Republican candidate Mitt Romney. A joyous moment for many but dissatisfying for some, and a chance to ridicule, point fingers and make slay comments for others, not absent of Donald Trump.
When President Barack Obama won his first presidential run-off, there were comments such as “black people no longer have an excuse” and “Barack Obama is the black people’s reparation for slavery”. On one hand, President Obama’s win does indeed mean much for black people concerning American history in government. But does his re-election count for all this black? Not in my book. Though exceedingly proud, his win doesn’t change the hate in people’s heart concerning black people in general. Even the hate that “closet racists” have spill out, and will do so for the next four years. I don’t see society being less messed up for blacks than before anyone ever knew who a BARACK OBAMA was. The police will still hate us. We’ll still be seen as ‘N—gers’, even though our ancestors built the great country America with their own blood, sweat and tears. Job opportunities will still be at minimum for us, even if qualified. Sorry if I seem like a pessimist; yet I’m just stating the facts. If looking at what his re-election mean today, than I’d say, it means he and his family can enjoy the wealth of their ancestor’s labor. And though many of our black ancestors never stepped foot on nor off a slave ship, we share in the burden for the pain the was caused as well as the joy of what strength allows us to conquer.
Congratulations to President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Bidden and the Obama/Bidden family.
Ice Cube @icecube
With the election so close, it’s only right to debut my political song #EVERYTHANGS CORRUPT at midnight PST at http://icecube.com Peep!
Wowwwwww! Don’t let the ‘Are We There Yet’ movies fool ya. Ice Cube is still one of the hardest O.G’s in the game. Gearing up for the United States presidential election, Cube just released his new video, Everything’s Corrupt tackling many issues going on in America from politics, education, murders, etc. If Cube were to run for political office, I’d vote for him.
It’s a must you check out the official video by Ice Cube, Everything’s Corrupt.
It was during a recent trip to Jamaica to which rap legend, Snoop Dogg made a transformation into Snoop Lion, now embracing the Rastafari movement. Snoop promise there is to be much to come of it, and to signal it, a few months back, he dropped his first single ‘La La La’ under the Snoop Lion moniker. Now, he just released the official for the title track, and perhaps now it’s official.
In the introduction for the video, Lion is surrounded by children who either seem to have a liking for Lion, Dogg or both. Well, this led to a ritual-like ceremony to which there was a funeral to signal of the death of Snoop D-O double G. as Snoop was closed into a casket holding a dog, only for him to appear resurrected adore a lion’s skullcap, signaling his transformation into Snoop Lion. It’s a fun celebratory video indeed, yet the D-O double G. will be missed however. But for those whom rocks with Snoop, will get used to the Lion. By the way, be on the look out for Snoop Lion’s ‘Reincarnated’ album coming soon.
Check out the official video
Sorry but this video was removed by owner.
No No, this can’t be true. Cee-Lo Green? ATL.’s own. My hometown O.G. of the Goodie Mob? Well, here’s the story. An incident occurred in Los Angeles, California perhaps at a downtown LA restaurant to which Cee-Lo, real name Thomas DeCarlo Calloway was accused of sexual assault. But despite the accusation, Green has confessed his innocence.
Cee Lo tells TMZ he categorically denies ANY wrongdoing. In fact, the singer says he hasn’t been to the restaurant in question in 3 months … and insists, “Nothing ever happened there or anywhere else.” We also spoke with a source who is constantly with Cee Lo … who tells us, “I have never seen Cee Lo act in a physical way toward anybody.” The investigation is in its infancy … no charges have been filed and the case has not been referred to prosecutors. (TMZ)
Shouts out to Cee-Lo Green. MartaCard Report and the ATL stand behind you man.
Just last week , after giving you Snoop Dogg’s ‘Road to Riches’ Doggisode #19, we’re back with Doggisode #20, with Snoop Dogg aka Snoop Lion & Tha Dogg Pound in Budapest. In the short video, Snoop ran through some of his classics (notice I said some, as there are too many to name) such as Drop It Like It’s Hot, Young, Wild & Free and La La La, the debut single from his forthcoming album Reincarnated. He also got up and personal with some of his fans, allowing them to come backstage for a personal interview with the Dogg aka Lion. One fan that made her way backstage is this chick named Bianca. Happy she was she to meet the S-N double O P. as she got the chance to speak with him personally as well as getting graced with a kiss on the cheeks plus an autograph signed by the king of West Coast. Stay tuned for Doggisode #21.
Check out Snoop Dogg’s ‘Road to Riches’Doggisode #20 Budapest, produced by Snoop Dogg and D Baker aka Dah Dah.
We already know the boy D-O double G is a fool with it. If he wasn’t a rapper, he could definitely go for comedian because dude is hilarious. And when you add the REAL queen of comedy aka Luenell to the mix, Oh Boy! Can’t forget about Snoop’s friend, Bishop Don Magic Juan dropping pimp science. Is it true that Khloe Kardashian and LaMar Odom is DIVORCING? Well that seems to be the rumor. But who knows, it’s Hollywood. Yet GGN News keeps it 100. Last but not least, shouts out to producer, RZA of the Wu Tang Clan for stopping through. Be on the look out for The Man with the Iron Fists, an upcoming martial arts film directed by RZA and written by RZA and Eli Roth. Heard some of the music from the soundtrack and it’s DOPE.
Check out Snoop Dogg GGN News with guests appearance by Bishop Magic Juan, comedienne Luenell and RZA.
Rapper Shyne should have thought twice before going on a twitter rant about Kendrick Lamar’s g.o.o.d. kid, m.A.A.d city album, calling it trash because now, them boys in killa Cali got their eye on him saying that he better not step foot on California soil. The first to speak was Nipsey Hussle. Hussle via twitter had these words to say to the now Orthodox Jewish, former Bad Boy Records (Sean ‘P. Diddy’ Combs) eMcee.
“If Shyne ever make it bac to the states…somebody tell cuz his west coast pass is revoked.,” he tweeted. (Nipsey Hussle’s Twitter)
And if that wasn’t enough, Curren$y of New Orleans jumped in to spit his piece by saying these words: “What did shyne do? I was Watching American dad …. Missed errthang,” Spitta tweeted.
“F*ck no man….. Kendrick sh*t is slappin….”
“Definitely gonna think about that when I ride to those old shyne albums… Bummer man … I like all music that jams” (Curren$y’s Twitter)
Lamar’s homeboy and fellow rapper, Schoolboy Q finished him off by saying: “We all know @OriginalSHyne AIN’T EATIN!!!!! N*ggaH ain’t Had a Hot verse since 01,” Schoolboy tweeted.
“Surprise He got INTERNET”
“@OriginalSHyne ok mobster/jewisH man ima b quite” (Schoolboy Q’s Twitter)
Will Shyne go silent or will he water down his rant?
More about the break. But in the meantime, kick it about enjoy this 2012 throwback CLASSIC by Snoop Dogg, ‘West Side Riding’, ft. Bad Lucc, Problem, & Daz Dillinger. Also check out The Twinz, E-White, Nipsey Hussle & Kurupt ‘Young Gotti’ in the video.
Fellow West Coast rapper Game called Lamar’s album an instant classic.
“Its official like McDonald’s bathroom tissue: @KendrickLamar’s album joins the ranks of “The Chronic” “Doggystyle” & “The Documentary” #GKMC,” he tweeted October 23rd.
“To witness CLASSIC west coast hip hop NOW click this http://itun.es/us/dbFUH- @kendricklamar got October & I got December #GKMC #JesusPiece” (Game’s Twitter)
Even Game’s rap rival 50 Cent co-signed Kendrick’s new solo effort.
“It’s official TDE @Kendricklamar album in stores today I got a copy.i like da Janet joint, swimming pools, this Sh!t hot.,” Fif tweeted October 22nd. (50 Cent’s Twitter)
That’s not what Shyne aka Moshe Levi said. While respecting the Top Dawg/Aftermath/Interscope Records hip hop artist talent, he tweeted strong disappointments about Kendrick’s good kid, m.A.A.d city major label debut album.
“Yoooo! Kendrick Lamar is talented with a lot of potential but his album is traaaaash!,” he tweeted Tuesday (October 23) night.
“The game Documentary even 50 get rich or die trying lived up to the hype and were classics. Good kid is trash!”
“When did honest become hating? I expected doggy style or the chronic. I got a product that was trash”
“I’m inspired by other people’s greatness, it makes me work harder . I looked forward to hearing an instant classik from good kid. Trash!”
“All kendric lamar d#%^ riders & nut huggers! His album was trash! Good kid! Terrible album!” (Shyne’s Twitter)
Many entertainers push the limits when promoting their new album. And in many instances, it works. Many also receive a great amount of ridicule from either the public, organizations, whether religious, community or political. Speaking of religious organization, how about rapper Game’s cover art for his upcoming Jesus Piece album. It’s his final contractual album with Jimmy Iovine’s Interscope Records. And perhaps, he wants to go out with a BANG! Consequently, having Jesus adored like a ‘religious gangbanger’ may not sit well with Christian groups as there has been much ridicule about this matter. But who knows. There’s may be a subliminal message Game wants to get out, such as Jesus’ love for all men; be it gang members, pimps, prostitutes, etc. On the other hand, would any artist be so bold to make the Islamic prophet Muhammad seem so sacrilegious? Name one artist/musician to have done it already.
As you may already know or not know, Kanye West, alongside his G.O.O.D. Music team (Pusha T, Teyana Taylor, John Legend, Common, QTip, Cyhi The Prynce and 2 Chainz) just release Cruel Summer album, which as phenomenal . Even Ye’s mentor, Roc Nation’s CEO Sean Jay Z Carter made an appearance on the album, alongside Big Sean. Moving on! Make no secret the G.O.O.D. Music leader work ethic is super CRAZY. But a dude who has money, homie works like he’s without money. Summer is over, autumn is hear, and winter is approaching. Yet is it going to be a Cruel Winter? Hmmmm. I think QTip has the answer to that question. Was it supposed to be a secret? Shhhhhsh! Don’t tell Yeezy. Maybe it was the sexiness of hostess Christina Sanchez for hiphopsince1987.com that made him give away a potential secret. Shouts out to Christina Sanchez and the hiphopsince1987.com family.
Check out QTip’s interview with Christina Sanchez aka Queen Diva.
Keeping it all in the family as I earlier presented to you the video for Kurupt’s Money (Do It For Me) ft. RBX. Now I’m back with another long awaited Doggisode classic. It’s always a feel good moment whenever the DPGC (Dogg Pound Gangsta Crips) get together. From Bigg Snoop Dogg aka Snoop Lion, Daz Dillinger, Kurupt Young Gotti, RBX, Soopafly, Warren G and the rest of the Dogg Pound Gangsta family, it’s always a gangster party. Here in Snoop Doggisode 19 show footage of Snoop and the guys rock the mic at an Adidas concert. The boy Game came through as well as the legacy DMC of the legendary hip hop pioneer group, Run DMC who performed one of those Run DMC classics, ‘My Addidas’, alongside Snoop, Game and Kurupt. Want to get the full scoop of the video, then watch it right here.
You know I grew up in the 80s and 90s era of hip hop and gangsta rap. And if there was once person whom knows how to mix the two so well, it’s Kurupt Young Gotti, 1/2 of Tha Dogg Pound and long time friend of Calvin ‘Snoop Dogg aka Snoop Lion’ Broadus. Kurupt’s a beast and can outdo any emCee on the West Coast. Rupt was born in Philadelphia yet moved to Inglewood, California in his early teens where he met Snoop then went on to help formulate one of the most notorious hip hop labels ever at that time, Deathrow Records (Suge Knight, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Daz Dillinger). It’s 2012 and he’s about to drop his new mixtape entitled “Money Bitches Power”, as he teamed up with Los Angeles mixtape DJ, Mike Bean.
The first single off the mixtape is Money (Do It For Me) featuring the legendary RBX, production by J. Wells and co-prod. by Knotch and Battlecat.
