New Resident In The Town Of West Kardashian!

The country's most talked about celebrity welcomes her son to the world. 

Celebrity agitator Kim Kardashian-West gave birth to her son. The Kardashian clan can confirm that Kim gave birth on Saturday morning. Kanye West, her husband of two years couldn't be a proud papa.

This is the second child for the celebrity couple.

The celebrity agitator revealed that she was pregnant during a taping of her E! Entertainment reality series, "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" back in May.

Kylie Jenner Put The Tyga Out!

Tyga broke and single. His controversial relationship with Kylie Jenner is over.

Almost a year together and I guess the "Rack City" rapper was being plagued with allegations of cheating. The rapper was facing some serious criticism for dating the half-sister of celebrity agitator Kim Kardashian-West. 

Michael Ray Nguyen Stevenson (aka Tyga) is officially a washed up rapper. He's burn more homes during his rise to fame and never was charged with arson.

Now he won't have that side chick anymore. Kylie Jenner put the Tyga out.

They are officially broke up. 

To make it more embarrassing for the Compton rapper, Kylie broke up with him on his birthday.

Tyga And Kylie Jenner Have Broken Up. Good Thing Or Bad Thing?

Good Thing

Bad Thing

Poll Maker

Tyga who sparked the internal feud within the Young Money/Cash Money label has been blackballed after he went to the junk food media to blast Drake and Nicki Minaj.

Drake took Tyga to the woodshed. The mother of his son, Blac Chyna went after him for cheating on her with an underage spoiled brat. 

The Fan of Fan collaboration album with fellow washed up singer Chris Brown and Last Kings: The Gold Album 18th Dynasty flopped.

Tyga was surviving on the much controversial relationship with the now 18 year old celebrity agitator.

Tyga was going broke fast. He failed to pay his rent on his luxury home. He got Kylie a Lamborghini on rental. He was spoiling this teenager more than his son.

Tyga also played on his numerous flings. One fling, transgender porn star Mia Isabella told the junk food media that he does it "NASTY".

Tyga was allegedly caught sexting a stripper.

Many in the Kardashian and Jenner household were so relieved to hear that Tyga was kicked to the curb. They knew he was up to no good. He couldn't help his libido. 

Chris Brown and Blac Chyna had came to his rescue. They were spotted with the rapper trying to at least cheer him up.

Tyga Brushes Off Cheating Rumors!

What it look like! Tyga releasing another mixtape this year.

The washed up rapper Michael Nguyen-Stevenson (aka Tyga) is releasing the Rawwest Nigga Alive mixtape in November. The mixtape is coming out through his Last Kings imprint and it will Rick Ross, 2 Chainz, Goapele and his best bud Chris Brown.

It's the second mixtape this year. Fuk Wat They Talkin Bout was released in August. This new mixtape will be void of the Cash Money/Young Money themes.

Been a bad year for the Compton rapper. He burned bridges with Lil' Wayne and Birdman.

Tyga talked to the junk food media about how he hates being around Drake and Nicki Minaj.

He also blasted Cash Money and Young Money for delaying his album releases, Birdman threatened to blackball him. Tyga's former mentor Lil' Wayne is also feuding Birdman.

Weezy threatened to sue Birdman because of his album Tha Carter V was indefinitely shelved. He wants to be released from the Cash Money/Young Money labels.

Porn actress Mia Isabella leaked Tyga's personal pics.

Tyga released The Gold Album: 18th Dynasty independently and it flopped. The Fan of a Fan collaboration album with Chris Brown fared better.

Ever since Drake took him to the woodshed, Tyga's been struggling to stay relevant.

The only thing that keeps him relevant is that he's a part of the Kardashian clan. He is dating Kim Kardashian-West's half-sister.

Tyga can finally confirm his relationship with 18-year old Kylie Jenner. They've been together for nearly a year now. Many in the junk food media blasted Tyga for dating Kylie when she was 16.

Tyga denied he was dating Kylie. He was just good friends with her. When she turned 18 this year, he decided to finally confess his love for the reality turd.

Now the junk food media has been talking about Tyga and his alleged cheating.

Tyga has been on the defense after it was revealed he had a fling with his baby mama Blac Chyna even though he's was dating Kylie.

The rapper has a son with Blac Chyna.

Transgender porn star Mia Isabella also comes into the picture. She told the junk food media, that the rapper had "desires".  She also released the text messages and the NSFW picture of T-Raww's long shot to transgender celebrity agitator B. Scott.

Mia's is in the porn business. She knows where the cameras are and she hinted that a sex tape will come out this year.

Tyga has threatened to press charges against those who released his image without his permission.

Here's the official video Dope'd Up. It features Tyga and Kylie in a Thriller style music video. This confirms they're officially an item.

Papa Smurf Pushes Rap Ad!

As NBA legend Kareem Abdul Jabbar said it best, why would any Black person vote for a Republican?

He took a 3-pointer at Ben Carson.

In a Time Magazine article, the famed basketball player said that Republicans will never listen to the concerns of Black America.

He summed it up like this: "[Carson's] repressive, muddled and pious policies and opinions often run against our Constitution—but his questionable proposals will likely, thankfully, be doomed by his lack of political expertise. His presidency would be marked by even worse gridlock while he wastes his time trying to impose his narrow and sometimes ill-informed morality on the other 319 million people in the nation. And it would definitely not be good for African Americans to have a president who flounders helplessly in office because it would perpetuate the stereotype that blacks can’t be effective CEOs, quarterbacks and leaders."

Abdul Jabbar added, "Although Carson is a celebrated physician, he has expressed several opinions that are contrary to scientific evidence and therefore call into question his logic—a quality crucial in a president. His claim that sexual orientation is a choice is remarkably unscientific. He has argued that “a lot of people” in prison change their sexual orientation. As many people have pointed out, sexual behavior is not the same as orientation. Plus, studies indicate the most significant causes of sexual orientation are genetics and in utero hormonal exposure. According to the American Psychological Association, “most people experience little or no sense of choice about their sexual orientation.” For a physician to ignore the preponderance of scientific proof in favor of his own religious beliefs is dangerous because is it justifies enacting laws that restrict human and civil rights. Carson has since apologized, but we should never forget that pseudo-science was used to prove blacks were physically and mentally inferior to whites and to justify slavery."

I won't endorse Ben Carson for president.

That pretty much sums it up. Blacks aren't vote on race. The Blacks are voting on conscience.

And what makes Carson so pitiful is his lame attempt to win the Black vote. So in select areas, the Carson campaign released a hip-hop themed political ad.

Carson himself doesn't rap in the 60-second radio spot, which will play for two weeks in Miami, Atlanta, Houston, Detroit, Birmingham, Alabama, Jackson, Mississippi, Memphis, Tennessee, and Little Rock, Arkansas. A rapper named Aspiring Mogul raps, "Vote and support Ben Carson for our next president and be awesome," over clips of Carson remarks about freedom and personal responsibility.



Carson isn't a fan of hip-hop music.

But he's willing to put a handful of $$$$$$$ to win the Black vote.

Carson has at 20% of the Black vote. That's a first for a Republican. It hasn't been achieved since the days of George H.W. Bush.

Rubio Is Cashin' In!

The biggest endorsement for the Florida senator is a big bundler for the Republican Party. This bundler gave millions to Republicans like the perennial loser Mitt Romney.

Paul Singer a mega donor came out in favor of Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL). Singer was a supporter of Jeb Bush. He flipped the script on Bush and cashed in on Rubio.

This is a big blow to the Bush campaign.

"He is accustomed to thinking about American foreign policy as a responsible policy maker," the hedge fund manager wrote. "He is ready to be an informed and assertive decision-maker." Rubio is the "best explainer of conservatism in public life today" and can "appeal to both the head and the heart," wrote Singer, describing the senator as the only candidate who can "navigate this complex primary process" and go on to defeat Hillary Clinton.

Money man gave Sen. Marco Rubio a $$$$$$$$$$ contract.

Bush, whose campaign warned donors last week that Rubio is a "risky bet," tried hard to win Singer's support, as did Chris Christie. Sources tell the Times that there was no single moment when the billionaire decided on Rubio, although Bush's dismal debate performance didn't help his cause. At a campaign event in Iowa on Friday, Rubio said he welcomed Singer's support, though he added that "resources alone are not enough" and "you have to have the right ideas and the right principles and convince people that you’re the right person for the job," the Guardian reports. He declined to address Bush's attacks on him, saying he doesn't think "it is a smart thing for Republicans to do Hillary Clinton’s job for her."

Singer warned Republicans that if they continue to push the anti-gay agenda, he might pull back on them. Singer is a strong supporter of Israel. Singer has a son who is gay.

Alabama Teacher May Face Cannon Firing After Posting A Kanye Blackface Costume!

Teacher facing criticism after posing as Kanye West in blackface.

A Decatur, Alabama teacher may face a cannon firing for posting on social media his "cool" costume.

He and his wife wanted to go as America's most talked about reality couple. Unfortunately he put on the coal and started doing the "nah nah".

Heath Marrow is apologizing to the junk food media after his wife posted the picture of him in blackface as the rapper/producer/celebrity agitator Kanye West.

It soon made it to Reddit and went viral. Now his school is investigating the incident and may fire Marrow out the cannon.

He's a primary school educator who loves his job. He loves to teach and he has "many black friends".

“I didn’t know dressing up as a celebrity couple would cause so much controversy,” his wife Shannon Morrow told the junk food media. “There was no malicious intent in this costume. It’s for HALLOWEEN, the one time a year it is okay. Some of my husband’s best friends are black. There was no racial intent whatsoever.”

So as in "I'm not a racist" fashion, Heath and Shannon issue an apology to the local junk food media that covers the Huntsville-Decatur area.

To whom this may concern:

I would like to first apologize for my error in judgment. My intentions were not malicious or directed toward any certain group of people. I would also like to say that everyone who knows my character and knows my heart, knows that I have never seen color in my life. I wasn’t raised or taught that way and do not raise my children that way. I see people for who they are, and my wife and I go out of our way to help anyone we can in my profession as an educator. When deciding to dress up for a Halloween party, my wife and I made a decision based on celebrities and the political climate today. I do not want this to reflect on my school or school system based on my poor decision that I made. Again I apologize and this will not happen again.

Sincerely,

Heath Morrow

Kanye and his celebrity agitator wife Kim Kardashian-West have been in the news for their wacky family drama and the second bump her belly. There's talk about friction between the two. 

Is divorce on the way says the junk food media?

For one thing, I don't believe anything on the internet. Second, who cares?

They are right now consoling Khloe in the wake of her ex-hubby Lamar Odom's tragic accident.

They care less about some nobody in Alabama. 

Morrow, a 5th-grade teacher at Chestnut Grove Elementary School, went to a private Halloween party over the weekend with his wife. 

Morrow's boss the superintendent Ed Nichols said the district is investigating the incident.

"We are saddened as a district by the action of a member of our staff that have offended members of our community, and most of all, have taken away from the focus of our children and the good things that are going on in our school district and with our children," Nichols said.

The country's most talked about celebrity couple got rumors of divorce in the air.

Nichols wouldn't comment on the teacher's current employment status with the school.

"As a school district, we are looking into this issue and seeking advice from our legal counsel, and I want to make sure that all the citizens of our community know that we do not condone this action or any action that would bring any offense to a person based on their race, their religion, or any other matter," Nichols said.

Nichols also didn't say anything about follow-up actions.

"Due to the ongoing investigations, I cannot talk about those procedures. However, I do plan to meet with leaders in our community to discuss this issue and seek their advice and their counsel on what we can do as a school district, for our staff and our students, to do a better job of being sensitive to those around us and their feelings," said Nichols.

Rapping From The Hole In The Wall!

Seven South Carolina interns got a lengthy bid in the iron college for smuggling contraband into the iron college. Matter of fact, they lost almost every privilege in the regards to this YouTube video that surfaced on the net.

Someone filmed the interns rapping from the walls. They ended up posting their rap music video on WorldStarHipHop, a notorious celebrity agitating website.

The South Carolina Department of Corrections scrapped their recording gig.

Rapping from the walls got interns time in the hole.

This video got them more time out. They will have time in the hole. They will have a combined amount of 20 years in the hole in the wall. The hole in the wall is solidarity confinement. The SCDC came under fire for the punishment after it was revealed even longer periods of solitary confinement were given to other prisoners for using social media in the past.

The six minute video went viral.

These interns were given a combined total punishment of 7,150 days, or 19.75 years, of solitary confinement at the South Carolina Department of Corrections (SCDC). The group of men recorded the video, “I’m On,” last March

Of course, our conservative concern trolls are probably already engaging in attacking hip-hop music, BlackLivesMatter and President Barack Obama.

Paul Prudhomme Passed Away!

The soul of New Orleans Cajun cuisine passed away Thursday.

The Cajun King has passed away today according to CNN.

Louisiana Chef Paul Prudhomme, credited with helping popularize Cajun and Creole cuisine, died Thursday, according to K-Paul's, the New Orleans restaurant he owned.

Prudhomme, who was 75, died in New Orleans after a brief illness, the restaurant said.

"Paul was the one who not only put Louisiana food, our food, Cajun and Creole food, on the map, but he was also the one who started the American food revolution that flourishes today," Poppy Tooker, host of the "Louisiana Eats!" radio show, told CNN.

His 1975 appointment as executive chef at the upscale New Orleans restaurant Commander's Palace helped break the assumption that a fine-dining restaurant had to have a French chef, Tooker said.

His upbringing as one of 13 children born to Louisiana sharecroppers also helped shape an approach to cooking that favored fresh, local ingredients and grew into the wildly popular farm-to-table movement of recent years, Tooker said.

Prudhomme was one of the nation's first celebrity chefs, and his restaurants attracted huge crowds and widespread acclaim. He hosted several cooking shows and authored nine cookbooks, some of them bestsellers.

His recipe for blackened redfish, first served at K-Paul's, became so popular state fisheries officials had to impose limits to save the species from overfishing, Tooker said. He also created and marketed a successful line of seasonings sold in groceries nationwide.

New Orleans Times-Picayune food editor Judy Walker called Prudhomme a "legend" who "changed New Orleans food forever."

Commander's Palace, the well-regarded New Orleans restaurant where Prudhomme was executive chef before opening K-Paul's in 1979, tweeted that its staff was saddened by the news.

"He was well loved," the restaurant said.

Paul Prudhomme made New Orleans cuisine so freaking good. World News Today send our condolences to the family of Paul Prudhomme.

Tupac Shakur's Letters From Lockup!

The Tupac Shakur letters from Clinton Correctional go up for sale.

The life and trials of Tupac Amuru Shakur. The controversial rapper's death on the Las Vegas strip was almost 20 years ago. The FBI and Las Vegas Police have not solved this case.

The rapper was gunned down after leaving a Mike Tyson fight. He was the passenger in the vehicle and Big Suge Knight was the driver. They were hit with gunfire. Tupac was hit five times and would be rushed to the hospital. According to the family members and friends, the rapper was put in a coma and stayed alive until they declared his injuries fatal.

The assailants were allegedly members of the domestic terrorist group The Crips. They haven't gotten any good leads. Big Suge right now isn't talking. He's sticking to the G-code despite him facing LIFE in the iron college after he was accused of vehicular homicide which was bumped to murder.

There's talk about a movie being in the works.

Before his death, he was riding high on Death Row Records. The record label helped propel Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Tha Dogg Pound and Tupac Shakur into pop culture. It also earned a notorious reputation for being a front for domestic terrorism. The now jailed former honcho Marion "Suge" Knight was the motivator of the label. He was the muscle and the brains behind the label. Dr. Dre, the co-founder was the producer of most of the Death Row albums until his departure in late 1995. Big Suge had connections to the domestic terrorist group The Bloods. The Bloods had a strong influence on the label.

Big Suge's influence helped Tupac get a "free card". When he was being held up on a sexual assault charge, Big Suge's connections managed to get him out. Almost immediately, Tupac signed a deal to Death Row and release the All Eyez On Me album in 1996.

While he was in the iron college, he wrote letters to his friends and some of the junk food media.

Some of his letters were obtained through an organization willing to sell these items to the right bidder. One letter is going on sale for a hefty bid.

Eight months after the album's release, he would be murdered. Around the time of his death, Death Row released Makaveli: The Don Killuminati The 7 Day Theory. The album release came five weeks after Tupac's murder.

Tupac wrote to Nina Bhadreshwar, a staffer at his record label, Death Row Records. That five-page letter is now for sale for $225,000 from Moments In Time, the New York Post reports. He opens by noting that he's replying to a letter from Bhadreshwar, who worked for Death Row Uncut magazine and her own publication. "I am not granting this information to any other publication, not even Time & Rolling Stone so please represent it as it is layed," Shakur wrote. "I trust u."

He went on to explain that black males in America grow from "young dustkicker" to "thug nigga" to "boss playa" and that "many niggaz never survive the second level of thuglife." He wrote that he himself almost didn't. "A regular Playa plays women, a Boss Playa plays life. A Boss Playa is a thinker, a leader, a builder, a moneymaker, a souljah, a teacher and most of all, a Man! I want all my homiez to know there is another level, it takes heart and courage 2 stand alone face the demons and make a change!" So, since "in my heart the thug nigga has advanced to be a Boss Playa," he wrote, "Thug Life is not dead but in my heart it is."

Future Took A Trip To Blac Chyna!

Future's successful year. There's talk about him dating Blac Chyna. She's the ex-wife of washed up rapper Tyga.

After the past comes the present and then the future.

What A Time To Be Alive from Drake and Future came Number 1 on the Billboard Top 200. It pushing over 500,000 copies. It's well on its way to be platinum. The collaboration mixtape/album is the second Number 1 this year for both Drake and Future. This may be the first time Future scores a platinum album.

Drake release If You're Reading This It's Too Late in February and Future released Dirty Sprite 2 (titled DS2) in July.

Future is seeing endless possibilities. Last year, his high profile relationship with Ciara ended. Ciara gave birth to Future's son. Future has five children. He had one of his daughters from my closest cousin.

Rumors are swirling about his love life. There's talk about him dating Tyga's former girl Blac Chyna. The rapper isn't telling the world what he's doing but surely TMZ is agitating the possibility of this happening.

Amber Rose with Blac Chyna

Tyga is having a bad year. He is blowing money fast. He is dating Kylie Jenner, the now 18-year old celebrity agitator and her demands are seriously breaking him. He is apparently no longer on Young Money/Cash Money.

Tyga is feuding with former labelmate Drake. Last year, Tyga called Drake "fake" and "weirdo".

Drake rip him a new one. The boss Bryan "Birdman" Williams had him blackballed.

Blac Chyna is the mother of Tyga's son. She was pissed at Tyga for dumping her for the celebrity agitator. She called Kylie, an underage brat. Now she devotes her time trashing on him online and public. She says that he's a very desperate man who can't even take care of their son.

She and Amber Rose dog on Tyga for being foolish.

Rumor or fact? Future spotted with Blac Chyna.

To add insult to injury, Future may have gotten his girl. Tyga will likely address this relationship.

Future is a notorious cheater. The reason for the Ciara and Future break up was the allegations of cheating.

Future was pissed at Ciara for hitting him up on child support.  Ciara started dating Russell Wilson, the NFL quarterback for the Seattle Seahawks.  She is allowing their son around Wilson and Future is none too happy about that.

Champagne Papi Mixed With Dirty Sprite!

Drake announced his mixtape What A Time To Be Alive will be released on iTunes. He will be collaborating with Future on the mixtape. 

Toronto rapper/singer Drake announced he will collaborate with Atlanta rapper Future for a mixtape.

It was announced on Drake's social media pages that he will release What A Time To Be Alive on iTunes, Sunday. This is the first joint project from Drake and Future.

He often drops surprise albums to keep bootleggers from leaking singles.

The rappers have toured together. The pair seem confident in the mixtape release being a success.

Future had only Drake on his third album. He scrapped the remaining acts due to a surprise leak of his album.

Seeing its release on iTunes, will be judged as an album or a mixtape?

This year, Drake released If You're Reading This It's Too Late in February and it reached Number 1 on Billboard's Top 200. The mixtape went platinum. It sold over 1.3 million units.

Drake also engaged in feuds with former labelmate Tyga and former collaborator Meek Mill.

Drake destroyed them. Drake also will address the recent attacks from a Houston rapper who used his Back 2 Back beat. Sauce Walka running on the ghostwriter and the piss on Drake attack. He even dropped Madonna and Serena Williams in this diss.

Future released DS2 (Dirty Sprite 2) in July. The album was a first for Future. It reached Number 1 on Billboard's Top 200. The album went gold. It sold over 596,000 units.

Future broke up with Ciara this year. He is the father of five children. One of the women he had a child with is a close cousin.

Future is a sought after rapper.

Infinite Possibilities!

Eminem.

There's talk about Eminem reissuing his rare debut album Infinite.

Infinite is raw uncut and underground Detroit hip-hop. 

Eminem, basically known as M&M at the time release his debut album out the trunk of his car. 

The album is hard to find (unless you get it off the torrents). The album is just a cassette tape.

The album had 11 tracks. It is a decent album. Raw hip-hop. Em wanted to make the album "radio friendly" and try to push it into Detroit radio stations. He couldn't make a break because he was a White rapper.

Before he signed to Interscope and became the world's best rapper, Eminem was Marshall Bruce Mathers III, a struggling single parent trying to find a place.

In 1996. Em was working a fast food joint in Detroit and doing freestyle rapping on the side. He decided to use his skills as a lyricist and save enough of his paychecks to release an album.  He teamed up with the Bass Brothers and Denaun Porter (aka Mr. Porter/Kon Artis) to release the raw Em.

Em cites the album's influence to AZ, a Queens based rapper who told stories about the struggle. The album received mixed reviews. Many said while his style was true, it wasn't unique. 

Rare album may be released this year.

Em would recruit his friend Paul Rosenberg who was working at Goliath Artists to help him get his music out into the mainstream.

So he would release The Slim Shady EP and that ended up landing in Jimmy Iovine's office.

Iovine wanted to create a superstar. He asked Dr. Dre if he was interested in working with Eminem.

The good doctor said "let get to work!." 

Eminem would sign to Aftermath in 1998 and release the commercial debut The Slim Shady LP in 1999. That album would sell 8 million copies and launched his career as one of the most famous rappers in the genre. 

And of course, his legacy as the greatest rapper comes with controversy. Many critics think Em's lyrics encouraged drug use and criminal deviancy. Some complained that his lyrics were homophobic, sexist, misogynistic, anti-cop, anti-establishment. Even some rappers were concerned that his music destroys hip-hop. 

Em ignored the critics and kept the music going. And for that he's earned that success. 

Denaun Porter was on a radio show recently. This interview with “The Cypher,” Porter was asked about whether the album will ever be re-released.The only thing that stops the release is the ongoing feud with his former record label. 

“That might have a lot to do with the Bass Brothers,” Porter said, citing Mark and Jeff Bass who released the effort through their Web Entertainment imprint in the mid-’90s. “If they were to release that right now, they would have to pay me a grip. I got screwed around way early messing around with them dudes. I don’t know what they’re doing right now, but it seems like it’s something that should happen.”

While Porter said he’d be down for a reissue, he also explained that he’d prefer if Em’s manager, lawyer and friend Paul Rosenberg handled it.

WEB Entertainment still owns the rights to most of Eminem's albums and they are the ones who can clear Infinite for a full release.

“Paul is more creative when it comes to how to do that sh-t,” he explained. “If [the Bass Brothers] did it themselves, they would have to do it in a special way because that’s a special project. For whatever reason, a lot of these younger kids, I think they gravitate towards that retro sound. It was a dope album.”

If you're interested in more Em, don't forget to get the soundtrack to the movie Southpaw. It is executive produced by Eminem and it's released on Shady/Interscope.

Also The Marshall Mathers LP 2 is out on Aftermath/Shady/WEB Entertainment/Interscope.

Have you heard Infinite?

Wiz Khalifa Got FED Up At LAX!

Taylor Gang CEO and pro-marijuana advocate Cameron Thomaz (best known as Wiz Khalifa) couldn't fly the friendly skies. He was busted at LAX (Los Angeles International Airport) for riding a hoverboard through the lobby.

What kind of bullshit led up to the famed rapper's detainment?

He got restrained by the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agency after he was told to get off the hoverboard.

I guess they didn't realize he was an entertainer.

They slammed him face first into the ground and took the hoverboard.

Many figured that the CBP and Los Angeles Port Authority took it a little too far.

The CBP released a statement in regards to the event.

"CBP officers are conducting their critical national security mission while facilitating the entry of legitimate travelers. An uncompliant passenger or any disruptive behavior could put many at risk in this highly secure area. Privacy laws prevent CBP from discussing specific cases."

So Wiz went to social media to let the public know that police brutality exist. It affects him.

Haven't been slammed and cuffed in a while. That was fun.

— Cameron (@wizkhalifa) August 22, 2015

I stand for our generation and our generation is gonna be riding hover boards so if you don't like it eat a dick!

So any thoughts on the matter?

Do you believe that this was a form of police brutality on the part of the CBP?

When The Muppets end its season then ABC premieres The Real O'Neals. It's executive produced by LGBT activist Dan Savage and it will feature Martha Plimpton and Jay R. Ferguson.

The CW will continue the sleeper hit Jane The Virgin. The show featuring Gina Rodriguez is a go.

The comedy-drama on The CW got a little more steam after Gina picked up a Golden Globe for being the best actress in a television show. Jane The Virgin is a show that has a majority Hispanic/Latina cast.

NBC also premieres Hot & Bothered. It will feature Eva Longoria and Jencarlos Canela. The show is a fictionalized version of a telenovela. The star is trying to learn Spanish despite being a lead star. It will feature a majority Hispanic/Latina cast.

Are you going to watch these shows?

Send your feedback to me and S. Baldwin.

In the meantime, I will catch The Carmichael Show on Wednesday nights.

Nicki Minaj Puts Fans On Wax!

Security is needed. Too many pervs are climbing on Nicki's wax figure.

The controversy in Las Vegas involves the rapper/singer Nicki Minaj being designed into wax figure.

The Madame Tussauds revealed the wax figure. The wax figure is extremely popular. It's driven guys crazy with outrageous antics on the statue. So much that the security is determined to keep the pervs off the exhibit.

"We have been made aware of the inappropriate photograph that was taken at Madame Tussauds Las Vegas, involving Nicki Minaj's new wax figure. Madame Tussauds attractions are interactive, immersive experiences, and our visitors are generally respectful towards the wax figures. It is unfortunate that this visitor decided to behave so inappropriately and we apologize for any offence this has caused.

We do have staff monitoring guest behavior in the attraction and do our utmost to ensure our wax figures are treated respectfully, but on this occasion clearly one of our hosts was not present," Madame Tussauds Las Vegas said in a statement on Twitter Tuesday.

Obviously when you see the rapper in the legendary pose of her Anaconda video, the designers decided to run with it.

On the other hand, Nicki took to social media to praise it. She actually may pay it a visit soon.

She also posted some of her fans and their reaction to it.

One fan got a little XXX with the figure.

Women's groups are calling the statue sexist. Many figured that they're exploiting the Black woman.

Marco Rubio: If I'm President, Cuba Will Be Bombed On Day One!

Obama is giving Cuba an unprecedented victory. If I'm elected president, I will put Cuba back on the state sponsors of terrorism. 

This clown Marco Rubio, the senator from Florida got steam coming out of his ears. After hearing the news of the United States easing tension with Cuba, he comes "Straight Outta Miami" bitching about the president giving Fidel and Raul Castro a victory.

The hip-hop Republican got an opportunity to take time from butter cows, fried Snickers and bacon busters to catch the hit movie "Straight Outta Compton". He said that he'll break from the seriousness of being a candidate to watch a movie. 

Really?

Can't wait til it hits DVD or Netflix?

When you're the President of the United States, movies are the last thing on the mind of an American leader.

The clown rose in his polls. He's either in fifth or sixth place. That means Jeb Bush and Scott Walker are in the bottom tier. 

Of course, The Donald, Ben Carson, Ted Cruz, and Carly Fiorina are the front runners. Rubio is the fifth man. 

Secretary of State John Kerry watches the flag raising at the American embassy in Cuba.

With the president trying to ease tensions with Cuba and Iran, Republicans are throwing cold water on the idea. According to Republicans, talking to nations we have no diplomatic ties to is equivalent to appeasement.

On Friday, Secretary of State John Kerry went to Havana. He was there for historical raising of the American flag. This is the sign of tensions easing with the lifting of the travel ban.

The travel ban was lifted after President Barack Obama lifted Cuba off the state sponsors of terrorism listing. He got a challenge ahead of him. He is pushing to eliminate the embargo. The inept Republican controlled Congress vow to fight him on this. Also the Iranian nuclear deal as well.

Rubio is an opportunist.

Some consultants are looking at the dingleberry Ohio governor John Kasich picking MC Rubio as a running mate.

Game: My Next Album Will Have 50 Cent's Obituary In It!

Overtime play for Jayecon Taylor. The rapper is releasing The Documentary 2 to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of his mainstream album The Documentary.

Fuck 50, I don't need ya broke ass on my album, ha ha!

This is what Game would say to his former friend 50 Cent. After 50 Cent revealed he filed for bankruptcy after being hit with a massive lawsuit, Game would taunt the media mogul for causing the mess that landed all of the Unit on the indie scene.

See as the Unit, the rappers had an opportunity to make $$$$$$$$$ on Interscope Records.

50 introduced the world to Lloyd Banks, Tony Yayo, Young Buck and The Game. Each of them gain name recognition for their gangsta cred, guns, their hoes and their egos.

All of that was exposed when 50 fired Game out the cannon. Although I don't believe either 50 or Game's reasons to the fall out, I think it had to do with 50's claim of ghostwriting lyrics for seven singles on the album. I also speculate that the two have tried to release their albums in the same period causing a rift between their boss Dr. Dre and chief Jimmy Iovine. Game's crew swamped celebrity agitator Funkmaster Flex's Hot 97 office after hearing the news.

This event gotten so bad a person was injured. Iovine ordered Game and 50 to make peace or face a cannon firing. They did it in front of cameras. But the truce was short lived. Game would release 300 Bars and destroy the credibility of his old group and the Interscope bosses.

Part II

He would release five albums since his departure from the Unit. Interscope fired him out the cannon in 2013 after the final mainstream release Jesus Piece flopped.

As an independent artist, Game can put out whatever bullshit he thinks he can sale. Matter of fact, did you know he released his sixth album Blood Moon Year of the Wolf last year?

Nope. Many haven't and it only sold less than 45,000 units.

Game still hoping to bring the magic back. In 2014, he appeared with Dr. Dre and Ice Cube for the filming of Straight Outta Compton. They posed together. It gave speculation to Game hopping back into the studio with the good doctor.

Now like the good doctor, Game decides to put his seventh album out this year. The good doctor invited his old labelmate on the Compton album.

Product of Compton.

Game was hoping to score a beat or verse from the good doctor in return. He also hoping that he finally end the bitter feud between him and 50.

Game has ended feuds with Buck and Banks.

50 and Yayo are still committed to not working with the rapper.

The Documentary 2 is a sequel to the 2005 mainstream album release of The Documentary. The album was executive produced by the good doctor and 50. The album went on to serve up 4 million units sold.

The singles that are released to the mainstream include 100 featuring Drake and Ryda with Detroit rapper Dej Loaf.

Game is hoping to have Dr. Dre's beats on at least some of his album. That's to be determined.

Game is known to stretch the truth a lot. He said he was resigning back to Aftermath and that didn't happen. He said that he will reunite with the Unit. That didn't happen. He said that he will sign to Cash Money/Young Money records. Nope that was bust. He said that he will be releasing his album with all Dre production. That didn't happen. He said the feud with 50 Cent was over. Not quite.

Game and 50's egos are the reason for the downfall of their careers. No surprise though!

Also Game has a reality television show coming this fall. No surprise there.

Old school hip-hop paved the way for the mainstream acts. Unfortunately some don't get the recognition of the mainstream CHR radio stations.

Sean Price, a member of the Boot Camp Clik passed away over the past week.  World News Today send our condolences to the family of Sean Price.

I didn't get an opportunity to dedicate a post to the legendary rapper.

The Law Fears Mass Murder At Straight Outta Compton Movie!

Add caption

The Straight Outta Compton movie is the most anticipated movie this summer. And the law fears that it could spark violence. The N.W.A. was founded by Ice Cube, Dr. Dre, Eazy E, DJ Yella, MC Ren and the Arabian Prince. The movie is directed by F.F. Gary and Ice Cube.

The album Straight Outta Compton is being re-released today to comply with the movie.

The movie inspired the good doctor to release a "surprise album" this month. Dr. Dre's album Compton, sold over 565,000 albums. It is the "final" album from the media mogul. Dre signed on as a chairperson for APPLE Music, Inc. He relinquished his role in the Beats Audio to join the computer giant for creative and musical releases.

The large cities are anticipating a possible mass shooting event to occur after the film ends.

So they beef up patrol and it's grabbing Ice Cube and Dr. Dre's attention.

It follows N.W.A, which included rappers Dr Dre and the late Eazy-E, as they rose to fame in the late 1980s with lyrics drawing from the violence, crime and anti-police sentiments that the rappers themselves had experienced growing up in Compton.

The movie premiere to the one year anniversary of the Michael Brown shooting.

Reuters reports that Brown's death was one in a series of police killings of unarmed black men and women across the U.S. that has renewed the debate on race and justice.

Against that backdrop, and with security at movie theaters in focus after a gunman killed two women in a Louisiana screening of "Trainwreck" in July, private security and police presence was increased at a number of venues.

"(In this movie) police don't come out in a good light and there is a feeling in the country that is anti-police and anti-establishment, and crowds are affected by movies," Tom DeLuca, president of National Cinema Security, the largest provider of security to U.S. movie theaters, told Reuters.

At a screening in South Gate, a neighboring city of Compton, an employee checking attendees' bags on entry said the theater hired extra security for the film's opening. One guard was stationed outside of the film's screening room.

N.W.A. founding member Ice Cube, one of the film's producers, praised the efforts of the studio and theaters.

"I am glad that Universal stepped up and it's all about making people feel safe," the rapper told Reuters.

Comcast Corp-owned Universal Pictures said it would work with theater owners on any security issues.

"The studio has not solicited enhanced security for theaters who will begin showing it this weekend, but have partnered with those exhibitors who've requested support for their location," Universal said in a statement.

Compton native Eddie Cruz told Reuters at a screening in nearby Downey he hoped the film shed a light on his community.

"The majority of the United States don't really understand what's going on in these cities like Compton or Oakland," he said. "They need to understand what's happening and I think having it shown in movies really helps that progress forward."

Attendees at the first screenings on Thursday in locations neighboring Compton said they were not concerned about possible violence.

"I'm here with my kids. I feel secure," said Leo Olea at the Downey screening. "It's just a movie after all."

Fellow movie-goer Vince Montano added: "I'm pretty sure people are smarter than that now so I don't think there'd be any violence."

The film is projected to top the U.S. box office this weekend with upwards of $40 million, said Rentrak senior analyst Paul Dergarabedian.

"People who are excited to see any movie this weekend are not going to be deterred by any thought of violence at theaters," he said.
