Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson was busted in St. Kitts and Nevis for being himself. The media mogul was cursing in the island nation. It's illegal to cuss in the country.
50 Cent needs to get a travel pamphlet when he travels outside the United States. He certainly has no clue about the laws in foreign nations. He's lucky he's not in Saudi Arabia, Singapore, the United Arab Emirates or North Korea with the blow.
The rapper would be flogged or shot by state executioners.
50 Cent was reportedly arrested in the Caribbean nation of St. Kitts and Nevis.
He dropped "M-fer" on the stage after performing his greatest hits. According to TMZ, Curtis "Money Blowing" Jackson was warned not to use profanity in the nation. He was told by the custom agents.
While in the nation, he performed around 40,000 people. When the DJ told 50 that he couldn't use the vulgar version of his songs, he said "fuck it". Then when onstage he uttered the word and it got him a night in lockup and a hefty U.S. fine. He sung his hit song, P.I.M.P.
He was booked and spent a night in the lockup. He will appear in court on the charge and be forced to spend a little of his earnings from the concert.
50 had to lose his passport and travel documents. They want his ass in the courtroom.
One of 50's roadies was also arrested after he shouted at the law and called them a bunch of....well he's got to lose his travel documents as well.
50 Cent is innocent until proven guilty. I don't know the laws in St. Kitts and Nevis, but I am guessing it's going to be at least a year in the iron college.
Gucci Mane out of federal time out. Plans on releasing a mixtape.
The Atlanta rapper was released from federal time out yesterday. Radric Davis, known to the world as the Gucci Mane was granted freedom from the Terre Haute federal time out.
On top of that, he wants to release a mixtape. Tonight he will release a mixtape at 10:17pm.
A nod to his label 1017 Records.
Big Guwop escaped a 20 year sentence after being hit up with federal charges. Back in 2013, the rapper spazzed out. He was caught in the Atlanta streets with a semi-automatic after binging on the snow. He was quickly arrested and treated for injuries inflicted on himself.
After being sent to detox, he was given the choice, straighten up or face 20 in federal time out.
His lawyers worked out a reasonable sentence. He got three years in federal time out and 10 years of supervised in-house.
Gucci Mane is free man. Well wishes to the King of East Atlanta.
Gucci Mane released over 12 albums and 54 mixtapes.
Tamar Braxton fired out the cannon over at The Real. There's backlash!
I think it's Tamera Housley behind the apparent cannon firing of reality star and singer Tamar Braxton from daytime agitation show The Real.
Word on the street that the singer and reality television star was bounced from Season Three after allegations of her being truly a "bawse" on the set. Some say that she is extremely difficult to work with.
Tamera Mowry-Housley and Tamar Braxton (known legally as Tamar Herbert) pitched the idea of The Real to Fox and the CW executives and they greenlighted the deal and gave them along with Loni Love, Adrienne Bailon and Jeannie Mai the opportunity to compete with The View and The Talk.
The Real is pretty damn good. The women discuss the junk food media like it's nothing.
But the four ladies remained quiet on the rumors of infighting between Braxton and her old crew.
Braxton who released an album this year is rebooting her singing career and stressed that the music and her family is what keeps her going.
Loni Love, Tamera Mowry-Housley, Tamar Braxton, Jeannie Mai and Adrienne Bailon are the hosts of The Real. The ladies are mum on the cannon firing of Tamar Braxton.
Many point fingers at Tamera Housley, their executive producer and higher ups.
Tamera Housely (formerly Mowry) is the twin sister of Tia Hardict (formerly Mowry) and sister of Taj Mowry. The three are well known actors and celebrity agitators.
Tamera married Fox News entertainment reporter/conservative agitator Adam Housley and have two children together. Tamera makes it no secret that she doesn't like Tamar's behavior and warned her that the cannon could come soon.
Tamar on her part could not get along with Tamera and Jeannie because they support Donald Trump.
When 50 Cent came to Dayton to promote his Effin Vodka, he took a flight out of Cincinnati.
The rapper was at the Cincinnati Northern Kentucky International Airport in Erlanger, Kentucky.
He shares some of his daily routine on social media and his fans love it.
The rapper whipped out a camera and started filming a worker. He decided to rim on the worker.
The rapper was dumping on a worker by accused him of being high. He said that airport worker Andrew Farrell looks like he's high and retarded. He publicly humiliated the worker on social media.
He was unaware that the worker was autistic.
The capo of The Unit now faces a national backlash from the junk food media for his childish behavior. He managed to get his vodka pulled off the shelves of liquor stores.
He also got tongue lashed by those in the entertainment community for being such an ass.
50 Cent was using his iPhone to mock a Cincinnati airport worker.
50 admits that he's an idiot and released a press statement telling the public he was sorry for acting a fool at the airport. He wrote the apology to Andrew saying it wasn't his intentions to insult a man doing his job.
Farrell said that 50's actions were ignorant and he wants the rapper to meet him at a center for autistic children. So far, no word on 50 making any other appearance since the controversy.
At the local Arrow Spirits and Wine, the owner decided that he's not going to be associated with the rapper's products after he posted that on social media. He thanked 50 for coming to Dayton to give autographs to the shoppers but he doesn't want that reputation to hang on his store.
Who is the most dumbest rapper?
So as you see above, a poll. I added a few new entities to this poll. After all, last poll clearly went to Tyga as being the most dumbest rapper.
Afeni Shakur, the mother of the late rapper Tupac Shakur passed away today. The mother who inspired her son for greatness was found dead in her Marin County, California home.
The family confirmed that she passed away from an apparent heart attack.
Shakur was an activist and motivational speaker. She urged rappers to put aside their differences for the sake of the Black community. There was a brutal hip-hop war between the West coast and the East coast. It led to the deaths of her son and his longtime rival the Notorious B.I.G. (Biggie Smalls).
Her name became famous in the 1995 Tupac Shakur single "Dear Mama" off the Me Against the World album.
Afeni Shakur sued Death Row for all of Tupac's music and licensing fees. She was awarded a cache of unreleased music, movie reels and poems from the rapper who many saw as a poetic but yet troubled soul.
Shakur led the fight to get a museum in her son's honor.
The queen of a pride. Afeni Shakur fought to have her son Tupac Shakur's legacy preserved.
Afeni Shakur (born Alice Faye Williams) was an American music businesswoman, philanthropist, political activist and Black Panther. She acted as her own criminal defense attorney after being accused of taking part in numerous bombings as a member of the Panthers.
World News Today send our condolences to the family of Afeni Shakur. The legacy of Tupac Shakur will forever be etched in music history. Afeni, a beautiful woman in the fight for equality in America.
Afeni Shakur you will be missed by me and S. Baldwin.
Canada is looking forward to the future. It's going green. The country is considering legalizing marijuana and it's winning praise in the U.S.
Our neighbor to the north trying to rid itself of the awful legacy of the former conservative prime minister Stephen Harper. The progressives are taking over. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is working overtime and is build bridges with President Barack Obama.
Trudeau said that legislation is well on the way. He said that recreational marijuana could be a reality in the Commonwealth.
Trudeau smoked weed back in his younger days. He's hoping that Parliament will pass a law assuring that any Canadian would not face prison time for smoking the sticky icky.
Washington, Colorado, Alaska, Oregon and the District of Columbia have legalized the weed.
President Barack Obama and some of his staff will meet with marijuana legalization advocates.
They have petition heavily for support of legalization of recreational marijuana. Many other states are pushing for legalization.
T'yanna Wallace, the daughter of the greatest MC of all time calls out Sean "Puffy" Combs.
She was totally out of the loop when Diddy didn't invite her to a celebration concert for her father.
T'yanna is the daughter of the Notorious B.I.G., a Brooklyn based rapper/producer who rose to critical acclaim after releasing Ready to Die and put Combs's label Bad Boy on the map.
She took to social media to slam the media mogul for being being a liar and fake ass punk for not including her and mother Jan Jackson. Biggie also had a son with Faith Evans named Christopher Wallace, Jr, known as CJ.
Diddy quickly reached out to her. He said that his made a mistake and he will invite T'yanna and her family to the concert. T'yanna scrubbed her social media posts and told the junk food media, everything is cool.
CJ Wallace. The son of late rapper Notorious B.I.G. and Faith Evans.
The Notorious B.I.G. (born Christopher George Latore Wallace) won praise and respect among most MCs. He also got entangled into a huge feud with Tupac Shakur and his label Death Row. The junk food media labeled their feud the East Coast vs. West Coast hip-hop war. It ultimately ended in the death of Tupac Shakur in Las Vegas in September 1996.
Biggie Smalls as he was also known was murdered in Los Angeles after leaving a hip-hop awards party in March 1997. Some say that the death was a retaliation killing and the murders of both Biggie and 'Pac still remain unsolved.
His last living album Life After Death came out a few days later.
T'yanna was only three years old when her father was gunned down. CJ was only a few month old when his father was gunned down.
The rapper would have been 44-years old if he was alive today. His birthday was on May 20.

Hamburger Helper releases Watch The Stove on iTunes.
General Mills releases an actual mixtape.
Watch The Stove is actually a mixtape released by Lefty, the Hamburger Helper mascot. It's a good mixtape. As an April Fool's Prank, the company wanted to give Lefty some real beef.
The title is a mocking of Jay-Z and Kanye West's album Watch The Throne.
It takes a shot at Meek Mill. Because remember in July, the Philly rapper was engaged in a serious rap beef with Drake. Drake served him hard. And General Mills couldn't resist making Meek Mill the butt of their promotional campaign. General Mills reached out to music manager/educator Craig Rice for help putting the project together. Rice, a teacher at McNally Smith College of Music in Minnesota and had Toki Wright as the performer of the mixtape.
In the mix, Lefty recording the mixtape.
Wright is an established hip-hop artist having released albums with Rhymesayers, Wright is also the Department Head of the nation’s first fully accredited Hip-hop Studies Diploma and Minor Program at the school. Jumping at the chance to get his students involved in a project that could reach a large audience, they got to work.
A song that goes after controversial Republican candidate goes viral. The group made it specifically for the most unrepentant media whore in the presidential race. Once it made it to the conservative Craigslist, it goes viral and attracts attention from some of the finger wagging agitators.
The most annoying conservative agitator to have radio show, television, blog and access to Republican candidates is concern trolling hip-hop music once again. And he's telling the public that they're freedom of dissent should have them thrown in the iron college.
Instead of calling him Sean Hannity, we should could him, Nannity! Nannity, the whiniest man on the planet. A wannabe that shouldn't have been. He's trying to be like the old farts Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh. He's parroting talking point and name dropping asshole.
On the radio show and television program, Nannity complains about some sucker MCs dissing Donald Trump. He believes that the teens should get a visit from the Secret Service for saying "fuck Trump" and "don't come to Baltimore".
Comedian makes a mock rap going after Trump and conservatives go bananas over it.
The song Choppas in the a Trumk for Donald Trump (CIT4DT) were performed by comedians, Dooley, Tlow and Lor Roger.
Of course, they're not really threatening a presidential candidate. But since it's rap music and it has explicit lyrics, conservatives are outraged over it.
The song's threats of violence against Trump were not literal or even serious.
"We didn't mean no harm by it," Ibrahim said. "We don't got no damn chopper! My religion says don't even kill. I wouldn't kill an innocent fly."
Abdel Ibrahim (Dooley's) popularity online has grown in a short time. (He started posting videos about a year ago, he said.) His Twitter, Instagram and Facebook accounts each have more than 60,000 followers. A fan-uploaded compilation of his comedy clips has garnered nearly 350,000 views since late February.
Finger wagging asshole complains about rappers dissing Trump. He defended a washed up rocker who once threatened violence on Democratic candidates.
The "CIT4DT" video has more 200,000 views on the popular video blog Worldstarhiphop.com. Other widely viewed social media accounts like The Shade Room and DJ Akademik’s Instagram page have also shared the song. Then the conservative Craigslist posted it later that day.
The performer was totally pissed about Donald Trump's ban on Muslims coming into the United States. He said that Trump's rhetoric is dividing everyone and it's "fair game" to go after him.
Trump and Snoop Dogg
The song began as a 28-second video upload on March 15, when Ibrahim and his friends performed it live in a car and filmed the footage for Twitter. It included an unprintable hashtag denouncing Trump, and has earned more than 11,000 retweets.
The quick success led Dooley to ask, “Rt if you think we should make [it] into a real song?” On Sunday, the finished version and video were online. Ibrahim said this would be his first and only rap song.
When asked whom he'd like to see as the next president, Ibrahim said Bernie Sanders was "cool."
"To be honest, I just want a good person," he said. "I don't really pay attention to it. I just be hearing all of the stuff Trump be saying."
Trump suggested that his supporters take action against protesters. The agitators of the right often ignored the violence that occurs at these events. The junk food media is covering it and we're noticing.
Note: Nannity defended his buddy Uncle Ted when he said onstage that he's put a couple rounds in Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, then Democratic candidates running for president in 2008. Ted Nugent to this day still advocates violence against Obama and those who support him.
Phife Dawg passed away after complications from diabetes.
A hip-hop legend passed away. The Associated Press reports that Phife Dawg of the rap group A Tribe Called Quest had passed away at the age of 45 today.
He was battling diabetes. He's been going through kidney treatment for most of his life.
Born Malik Isaac Taylor, the rapper grew up in Queens with fellow rappers, Q-Tip, Jabori and their producer Ali.
Phife stood at 5'3'' and was known by many as the Five Foot Assassin. He collaborate with the likes of De La Soul, the Jungle Brothers, the Native Tongues and Leaders of the New School.
Phife was known for his rhyming skills and his status as what the magazine calls the "high-pitched, gruff vocal counterpoint to [bandmate] Q-Tip's smooth, mellow flow." Although an official cause of death has yet to be announced, the magazine notes that Phife had suffered from various health issues, including diabetes that spurred a 2008 kidney transplant. "It's really a sickness," Phife said in an interview for an ATCQ rap documentary by actor/director Michael Rapaport. "Like straight-up drugs. I'm just addicted to sugar."
He also released one solo album, Ventilation: Da LP, in 2000 and had been working on a new album, Give Thanks, due out this year.
Ali, Phife and Q-Tip are A Tribe Called Quest.
A Tribe Called Quest released five albums before disbanding. They had a minor fallout over management and the label Jive Records. Q-Tip and Phife hadn't spoke in eight years.
The rap group reunited in 2004 when Wu-Tang Clan's Ol' Dirty Bastard passed away. They appeared together for the tribute to the troubled rapper.
The group went on tour for a brief moment and it sold out shows. The last time the rap group reunited was their recent appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. The group performed "Can I Kick It?" which was their first TV performance in 15 years.
E! Online has compiled social media tributes to the late rapper from fans, friends, and industry icons, including hip-hop magnate Russell Simmons, who tweeted, "Damn. #RIPPhife one of the greatest to bless the mic," and Public Enemy rapper Chuck D, who posted, "Rest In Beats PHIFE ATCQ Forever."
World News Today send our condolences to the family of Phfie Dawg. Rest in peace homie!
The memorable scene where Andre Lyon was close to ending his life. Trai Byers is threatening to leave hit drama Empire.
Empire already is a go for season three on Fox. But the rumor mill has been buzzing about a key actor planning on bouncing from the hit hip-hop drama. Trai Byers who plays Andre Lyon may leave the show after the season finishes.
Andre Lyon is the oldest son and is just as ruthless as his father Lucious Lyon. He is married to Rhonda and their expecting a child in show. He is bipolar and struggling to find a way to deal with the business and the cutthroat tactics of his father.
Empire Cast:
Terrance Howard: Lucious Lyon
Taraj P Henson: Cookie Lyon
Jussie Smollett: Jamal Lyon
Trai Byers: Andre Lyon
Bryshere Y. Gray: Hakeem Lyon
Grace Gealey: Anika Calhoun
Kaitlin Doubleday: Rhonda Lyon
Gabourey Sidbie: Becky Williams
TaRhonda Jones: Porsha Taylor
Serayah McNeill: Tiana Brown
He felt that Lee Daniels and Danny Strong have ignored him as a main character. They focused on the breakout stars Terrance Howard, Jussie Smollett, Bryshere Y. Gray and Taraj P. Henson.
Page Six of the tabloid The New York Post said that the actor was frustrated that he's not getting more screen time and felt that the show isn't worth his time. He's a thespian not a gangsta, says the sources.
Byers with girlfriend, co-star Grace Gealey.
The report says that "Trai threw a temper tantrum during filming in the past weeks saying, 'I don't get do enough, I might leave'. But producers called his bluff and said, 'Fine, if you're not happy, we don't need you.'"
Sources also added, "He thinks he is a brilliant guy who deserves a better role, but he's hardly one of the most popular or dynamic actors on the show. He also fired out the cannon his reps for not getting him big movie roles."
But Byers shot down the rumors quickly. The reasons unknown.
Of course, I know! Daniels and Strong told him about Mo'Nique. The comedian won an Academy Award for supporting actress in the blockbuster drama Precious. She was on top of the world until she found out that her services weren't needed.
She was blackball'd out of Hollywood. Mo'Nique blames Lee Daniels for ruining her career. She is currently feuding with the producer. Gabourey Sidibe, also stars in Empire.
I see the cracks at the bottom on the series. Ratings have taken a downturn. I mean at debut premiere it took in 18 million viewers. Throughout season one, it was clocking 9 to 15 million viewers (including DVR).
Byers said that he's happy to be on the show and he's not leaving. But a cryptic message from Taraj kind of says that he's could be written out of the show if he acts a fool. So if Byers want to get fired out the cannon, would it hurt the show?
Empire is going to hit ABC and CBS where it hurts, Once Empire comes back on, ABC sitcoms Modern Family and Black-ish will take a slight drop in the ratings.
Empire is a success.
The show has dominated in ratings since its premiere in January 2015. The show was granted a second season after the third episode by the Fox executives. Fox has already green lights The Simpsons, Gotham, Bob's Burgers and Empire. Bones was green lighted for a final season.
New Girl, Lucifer, Rosewood, Brooklyn Nine-9, Family Guy, The Last Man on Earth, Sleepy Hollow, Last Chance, The Grinder, Grandfathered, Barrett Cooper's Guide.... are on the bubble. Some may survive the cut.
I predict the other survivors would be Family Guy, Rosewood, Brooklyn Nine-9, The Grinder, Last Man on Earth and Lucifer.
I think New Girl will be cut. But it could survive if the show would crossover to MTV or TBS in the coming.
Atlanta rapper Bankroll Fresh was killed in a senseless shooting.
The hip-hop community mourns the loss of Atlanta rapper Bankroll Fresh (also known as Yung Fresh). He was a rapper from the area who started his label Street Money entertainment. Known as Trentavious White, the rapper was associated with 2 Chainz, Gucci Mane, Waka Flocka Flame and Young Scooter.

Bankroll Fresh self titled mixtape was released on DatPiff.
While working on another mixtape, Bankroll Fresh got ambushed by unknown assailants outside the Street Execs Studio on Friday.
2 Chainz, Future, Juicy J, Waka Flocka Flame and numerous other Atlanta based entertainers came out with sympathies and demands for justice.
Witnesses were concerned about the studio and the possible outbreak of violence. Some people were complaining that the music was loud into the night and they seen an increase of criminal activity around the neighborhood.
Police told CNN affiliate WSB-TV that they collected more than 50 shell casings inside and outside the studio. A motive for his killing is unknown.
CNN has reached out to Street Execs Studios and the Underwood Hills Neighborhood Association for comment.
World News Today send our condolences to the family of Bankroll Fresh. We also send our condolences to country gospel musician Joey Feek. She passed away of cancer.

The pile of money spelled B-R-O-K-E. That's really classy, 50....make fun of the real situation.
The Daily Mail reports that the 40-year-old rapper also lost a legal battle with his ex-business partners over a failed headphone deal and was slapped with a $17 million judgement in that case.
According to his Chapter 11 petition, Fifty claimed he had assets between $10 to $50 million but that his liabilities were in the same range.
Last month, he filed documents in the bankruptcy stating he only had $16 million in assets.
However, it appears appraisers checked into it all - and found his assets total over $64 million and that he only has liabilities totaling more than $36 million.
In addition, 50 Cent's current monthly income is $184,000-plus. The appraisers also valued his home goods to $131,000 including $49,000 in jewelry alone.
Appraisers found he has over $10 million in checking and stocks as well as his various G-Unit and other business' which are worth over $44 million.
His bankruptcy claims have come into question by Judge Ann Nevins, who is concerned over his actual need for bankruptcy and has asked for him to explain a series of photographs he posted to social media.
Today is his former rival Ja Rule's birthday. Ja Rule (born Jeffery Atkins) was born on February 29. He turns 40 years old today. I wonder which day would he celebrate his birthday on the off years!
I bet you money that Ja isn't sweating over money!
The Unit in 2003. Young Buck, Tony Yayo, Lloyd Banks, The Game and 50 Cent.
The Game and Lloyd Banks pose for a social media photo. It kind of seems like it's 50 Cent isn't keen to Banks posing with Game.
Game and his crew saw Banks and his crew in the playground of Dubai. They were cordial enough to take a picture together. No guns drawn. No fists or insults on each others.
A photo posted by The Game (@losangelesconfidential) on
All peace and respect. But it didn't go good for the Unit 's capo.
50 is taking a jab at the two for the picture. He says that this is the biggest confusion to hit him.
Before he scrubbed the post on Instagram, 50 said, "What do you see when you look at this picture? I see confusion, I'm not sure if it's just me, I'm a Cancer shit don't get old with me," wrote the Queens rapper. "I never ask for trouble but I really don't have a problem with it I'm different. The question isn't how I feel about it, but how dose ( Lodi Mac ) feel about it? Some shit is just better off left alone."
It's the feud that never ends. Over 10 years ago, Game was signed to the Unit. Game and 50 were cool for some point but it went downhill.
Game and 50 got into it over the release of The Documentary and The Massacre. 50 said that Game didn't give credit to the Unit when they contributed to his album. He fired Game out the cannon on radio and it led to a member of Game's posse getting shot.
Jimmy Iovine at the time ordered them to settle the feud. They made public statement saying that the tensions between the two have settled. The tensions escalated when 50 and Game traded bars on their mixtapes. Game released the 300 Bars and let 50 and The Unit have it.
Game was eventually fired out the cannon with Aftermath. He would release his other albums on Geffen and eOne Entertainment.
50 was eventually fired out the cannon with Aftermath and Shady Records. He blamed Dr. Dre and Eminem for stalling his releases. So 50 and The Unit went on to Caroline Records to release his music.
So far, the rappers are struggling to stay afloat. They don't sell the platinum albums like they used to. They compete with mainstream acts like Future, Drake, Macklemore, Pitbull and Nicki Minaj.
Lloyd Banks, Young Buck and Kidd Kidd settled their feud with Game. 50 and Tony Yayo said, "they'll die happy knowing Game ain't around!"
Game still sneak disses 50 and Yayo occasionally. This feud will never end.
Matter of fact, Game has not buried the hatchet with another rapper in the game. Game had enough of "phony Bloods" running their mouths. He's aiming at Young Thug for being a "pussyboi who dressing in women's wear". This feud started when Game came to defense of fellow Blood, Lil' Wayne when he was threatened retaliation against Birdman for his royalties.
Lil' Wayne has since settled the feud with Birdman and Thugger.
I am truly sadden by the latest news of a legend in R&B and funk music passing away.
The lead singer of the hit R&B group Earth, Wind & Fire, Maurice White, who's voice led through the 1970-80s with his funky grooves like "September", "Shining Star", "Boogie Wonderland", "Can't Hide Love" and "After The Love Is Gone" passed away.
According to the group, White passed away in his sleep after fighting Parkinson's Disease.

Cable network strikes back at washed up celebrity Stacey Dash
Stacey Dash getting hammered by Black entertainers. The washed up actress who appeared on that right wing network to blast a cable network that caters to Black culture.
BET got a taste of the venom Dash delivered a week ago. She went on that right wing network to say that Black America should eliminate Black History Month, BET and the NAACP Image Awards.
Dash believes that these awards are solely handed to Black entertainers and not White ones.
Of course, she got that wrong. BET fired back at her for that one. They even said that she's one to talk. Her ass appeared on the BET comedy-drama The Game.
BET devoted Jams to her. They played every video of her with the hashtag #NeverForget,
Videos that featured Stacey Dash included Memphis rapper MJG "That Girl", Carl Thomas' "Emotional", Kanye West's "All Falls Down", and Rick Ross' "Super High".
I am guessing BET is playing "Moving", "Mo Money", "Clueless" and Renaissance Man. These were movies Dash appeared in.
Rick Ross and Stacey Dash on the set of his music video.
Dash got slammed by her cousin Dame Dash, the former CEO of Roc-A-Fella Records. He says his cousin is doing "world class coonary"
She blasted Jada Pinkett Smith and Spike Lee for boycotting the Oscars after they failed to nominate Black entertainers. Jada's husband Will Smith was snubbed in his role in Concussion.
Many agitators in the junk food media claim that Jada and Will's Overbrook Entertainment doesn't do enough for the Black community. They claim that now "they want to take action after it affects them".
For the record, Jada and Will have donated $$$$$$$$$$$ to charity and invested in working in the communities they've grown up in. Will grew up in Philadelphia and Jada grew up in Baltimore.
As usual the concern troll nonsense that drives attention from reality. Out of 2,900 awards being handed out, only 31 Black winners of the Academy Awards.
That's a real problem that needs to be solved.
Now that it's gotten attention, many of the detractors are working overtime to discredit #OscarsSoWhite and #BlackLivesMatter.
Dash lit up a shit storm from many in the Black community.
Meek Mill feud spreads past Drake and Future. He aims at the Unit's 50 Cent.
Meek Mill released a surprise EP in anticipation of his mixtape Dreamchasers 4. The mixtape has unleashed several subliminals aimed at Drake and Future. Seven months after the Great Feud of 2015, Meek Mill decided to go back into the studio and record a handful of tracks aimed at the Canadian entertainer and those associated around him.
Meek also took aim at another entertainer, one who is a media mogul whose recently struggled with his money.
Curtis got a broadside by Meek.
And Curtis decided to go hard on him. The Unit's leader has made it clear he's no fan of Rick Ross. I am guessing that Meek decided to come to defense of the rapper after 50 continued to taunt him on Rozay's legal situations.
And down below is 50 Cent's official social media page. He mocks Meek. He photoshopped Meek's face to a poop emoji.
50 Cent called Meek a "shithead" and said that his career was over. He went to social media saying that Meek better get his girlfriend Nicki Minaj pregnant and ask for child support.
When Meek released the 4 for 4 Mixtape, he released "Gave 'Em Hope" in which some of the lyrics targeted 50 as a rat. He also went through 50's feud with former ally Floyd Mayweather.
[Intro]
Let them niggas have the Grammys, we got the streets

Every time we went to war (What we do?)
We gave 'em smoke
Fiends was copping, I was broke
Fuck that shit, we gave 'em soap
They forgot we gave 'em hope
I see that it was clearly aimed at 50 Cent. Meek who is currently facing a bid in the iron college once again violates his probation by doing something that the judge told him not to do.
By posting on social media, he may have violated his term of conditions. But who knows what could happen! He knows he's fucked anyway.
What makes the feud so crazy, 50 Cent wasn't letting Meek off the hook. He went on to post a handful of direct shots at Meek. Matter of fact, there were nine mentions of Meek in a video.
The first one was funny. The second one was hilarious and I'll leave it up to you to view the rest on his official Instagram page.
