THINGS THEY SAY: KANYE ON JT & THE HATERS!
2007-08-21 16:50:00
In the October issue of XXL magazineKanye zie talks about considering "Mr. Sexy Back, Justin Timberlake, his biggest competition."My biggest inspiration and biggest competition is Justin Timberlake. He's the only other person that gets an across-the-board response and respect level - black radio, white radio. If Justin hadn't come out and killed the game, I can't say that my album, singles and videos would be on the same level that they're on. We push each other. I look at me and Justin like Prince and Michael Jackson in their day." 'Ye goes on to address the haters..."I feel like my lyrics are, if not THE, then equal to, the realest lyrics out. I connected with so many people without talkin' about guns and drugs. ... It's harder to go to work 365 days than shoot a person in one day. There's nothing about wearing a pink Polo that would make anyone believe that I would hold a gun. Because people can't really handle the truth," he continues. "But I am the truth. I'd rather be...

BEYONCE FLASHES HER FANS...
2007-08-21 15:42:00
Beyonce aka Bionic B just recently suffered a mini-mishap at her Toronto, Canada concert. While performing "Deja Vu" Be's top went flying causing her to flash her fans...I know someone in the front row got that money shot. Then again she probably wore a nude colored bra underneath, I doubt Be would ever let all hang out. But like the true professional she is, Be pulled it off by making sure to hold down her nightgown costume for the rest of performance.

CRAZY LIKE A FOXX!!!
2007-08-21 15:42:00
Is it really hard to believe Fox Boogie Brown got herself in some mess again?! Didn't think so. Last week she boxed her neighbor and busted her front teeth with a blackberry and now shorty was caught lying to the cops. According to the NYPost, Ms. Ill Na, Na lied to the cops during a traffic stop. She was driving an SUV last Wednesday when she was pulled over for talking on her cell and failing to stop at a STOP sign. The officers checked her car's registration and it turned out to be suspended. Shorty gave the cops a variation of her real name and a date of birth that was a year off. So, the cops ran with what she told them and did a search for the name she gave them which turned up with no records. Her dumbass finally decided to give them her real name and date of birth. In return for her dishonesty, the cops slapped her with 7 tickets. I know she has a hearing problem, but lately Foxy has been acting like she has a mental problem!

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Micheal Vick has just accepted a plea deal which means he's possibly facing some jail time. According to his lawyer, "Mike is accepting full responsibility." It's about time he stopped frontin like he wasn't guilty! The difference between dudes in the hood and Mike is that they're too smart to slip up and get caught like his dumb ass. Anyway, if he gets locked up he's facing 5 years in the pen and a $250,000 fine. I just don't get it, R. Kelly f*cks little girls and still gets to the roam the streets. WTF???

THINGS THEY SAY: NAOMI CAMPBELL ON VOGUE MAGAZINE!!
2007-08-20 20:00:00
Naomi Campbell is finally doing something with her fame other than beating bitches up! She's putting Vogue magazine on blast for not featuring enough black models and I don't blame her. Vogue as well as the other fashion mags in this country really do show them white chicks too much love and that's a damn SHAME!"Black models are being sidelined by the major modeling agencies. It is a pity that people don't appreciate black beauty. Even myself, I get a raw deal from my own country in England. For example, I hardly come on the front pages of the London Vogue magazine. Only white models, some of whom are not as prominent as I am, are put on splash pages. I don't want to quit modeling until I find that black models get equal prominence and recognition by the world media and information instruments." Go 'head Naomi...you tell 'em!

"Bow Wow never left [Angela's] side all night ... They held hands, hugged and acted real couple-ish .... and at one point I even saw them cuddling off to the side."The pair are also featured on the cover of her magazine.

THINGS THEY SAY: 50 CENT ON DIDDY!!
2007-08-20 18:32:00
Looks like Kanye ain't the only top-selling rapper 50 Cent got beef with...now it's also Diddy ! The rapper told SOHH.com that he also doesn't like Diddy: "In business, I respect what [he does]. [But] if we liked each other, we'd call each other to talk for no reason. And me and Puffy, we don't have conversations."Guess that photo snapped of 50 Cent giving Diddy a pound a couple of months ago didn't mean a damn thing!

JAY-Z IS PUT ON BLAST PART 2!
2007-08-20 18:07:00
Today is the first time I've ever seen this video, so please excuse my tardiness. It seems like everyone is getting at Jay-Z . First, it was Calvin Klein (not the designer) and now it's De-Haven who also used to chill with Jay back in the day. Instead of doing an interview, dude put Jay on blast via VHS. I gotta be honest, the first couple of minutes I was like "WTF, dude has nothing better to do?", but as I continued to watch the video, I had a change of heart. If, this is really true...then Jay is really a grimey dude!
