The Law Trying To End Ohio Teen And Abductor's Lovefest!

Cops are searching for runaway and her abductor.  Teen and grown ass man are trying to have love fest despite they both knowing they could end up in the iron college for their actions.

Runaway teen and 44-year old man are missing and the FBI and Clark County Sheriff are looking for them.

Last year, Mark Edwards was busted outside of Springfield, Ohio after he took 14-year old Michaela Bruce on a ride to his place. They wanted to make music together despite the law saying that it's a felony. Clark County sheriff deputies had to put a stop to it. They got Edwards before he could do her. Bruce was trying her hardest to not be seen so she would hide under the blankets. We thought we've heard the last of this story in the local junk food media, but alas, the man is clearly obsessed. He wants her and he'll do anything to have her. So he'll abduct her and put the nation on alert. Now he knows he could be spending the rest of his life in the iron college for having unlawful sexual contact with Bruce. But it seems like he doesn't care because he's going to get him some. And the law enforcement got to stop it.

I am guessing Michaela is a troubled teen. Her family tried to convince Bruce that he's no good and she's too young! After all in the state of Ohio, the age of consent is 17 at best 18. Edwards knew he was risking his freedom. Bruce knew that he's a grown man and the family wasn't going to allow this relationship.

They were in love. A crazy kind of love.

A teen who is corrupted by a grown ass man.

The Dayton Daily News (Springfield News-Sun) and the Associated Press reports that the pair are considered armed and dangerous. Edwards being a known collector of firearms is risking his and that young girl's safety if he's trying his best to elude the law.

Sheriff Gene Kelly said the girl, Michaela Bruce, and the public could be at risk if the suspect, Mark Edwards, attempts to do something desperate to escape capture. He is possibly armed with guns and knives.

Wednesday evening, sheriff's Sgt. Mike Young said deputies have continued to receive hundreds of tips, the most credible of which is that Edwards and Bruce may have been near State Route 235 and Interstate 270 sometime late Wednesday morning. Deputies also have searched several vacant houses in the area where

Edwards and the girl abandoned a rental car he was driving before they eluded capture.

Young said deputies will continue to verify tips that come in to the sheriff's office and will continue the manhunt throughout the night.

Bruce's mother reported her missing at 9:02 p.m. Tuesday in German Twp., near Springfield. Acting on one of the early tips, deputies responded to a Knight's Inn on West Main Street in Springfield at 2:30 a.m. Wednesday to look for Bruce and Edwards. Items believed to belong to Edwards and Bruce were located in a room, but the two were not at the hotel.

The state bureau of criminal investigation is analyzing items found in that room for DNA, Sgt. Young said Wednesday night.

Deputies later spotted that rental car and pursued it. When the car ran a red light, deputies stopped their pursuit. The car was found abandoned at Rebert Pike and Cottage Drive in Springfield. A search of the area did not locate Edwards and the girl. Officials said Edwards' wife rented the vehicle Tuesday.

Officials believe Edwards and Bruce are on foot unless someone has offered them help. Deputies have no reason to believe the two have left the area. They said if he's going to try to leave the county, he will need help or will have to commit a crime -- such as rob or steal --  to do so.

Edwards was arrested in September 2013 after he was found with Bruce when she went missing from her school bus stop. At that time, Edwards and the teen were found in a green Ford Expedition in the 3300 block of Ohio 41. She was hiding in the rear of the vehicle under blankets. Deputies found a Taser, knives, condoms, a spear and more inside the SUV. Officials have said Edwards is known to be a survivalist.

Officials said because Edwards knows he is facing serious felony charges, he could put the girl at risk if he attempts to rob or steal to elude capture.

An Amber Alert was issued at the time of her disappearance in September, but one has not been issued in this latest incident. Deputies said they believe Bruce went willingly, so they can't issue an alert. Officials said the victim does have a restraining order against Edwards, but it's believed the two were in contact for her to meet him at a prearranged time and place.

Edwards is to go to trial March 4 on six counts of unlawful sexual conduct with a minor and interference with custody involving Bruce previously. He posted bond in December.

Detectives are talking to anyone who may have had contact with either one of them. Bruce is white, 5-feet-2 inches tall, 110 pounds. She is blonde and has blue eyes. She was last seen walking in the area of The Hill Apartments in German Twp. Edwards is black, 5-feet-1 inch tall, 135 pounds. He has brown eyes and black hair.

The sheriff's office has issued a felony arrest warrant for Edwards.

FBI Investigate Dayton Bus Driver Shooting!

Bus driver survives an attack.

Okay, I am not going to rush to conclusions on this one. I want to say that crime occurs in Dayton, Ohio. But this one is kind of unusual. I mean the shooting that occurred on Monday is getting national coverage.

The bus driver doing his daily route was shot by three individuals. The Dayton Police, Montgomery County Sheriff and the FBI are looking into how this occur. Even some law enforcement members are saying this could be a motivated hate crime.

I am kind of hoping that those involved are brought to justice. However, I want to say I am kind of skeptical of this. It's kind of a sketchy story.

For one thing, I am not sure of what happened that night (or early morning) when a Greater Dayton RTA bus driver got shot. I do know that the racist right is stirred by the event.

It's "almost" a miracle that the man survived a stabbing and shooting. I mean he was on a Lakeview Avenue in Dayton, Ohio on Route 8 heading towards the Westown Transit Center. Something happened to his electric trolley. He would exit his bus and in less than a minute three Black men would confront him.

According to the victim, he heard the three men say that they're "polar bear" hunting. I guess this was suppose to be a "gang initiation".

So I guess the driver got into a confrontation with the individual holding a gun. I guess three shots were fired.

Victim claims three Black men with bandanas attacked him.

One shot managed to get the bus driver in the leg. Two other slugs were in his chest. Somehow, The Message, a moderate pocket Bible saved the driver from getting a chest wound. The victim, Rickey Wagoner said he wrestled the gun away from the shooter, but he was stabbed by another in the left arm.

He finished his route and contacted the RTA and Dayton Police.

The racist right is already homing on the story. Kookspiracy far right website Prison Planet (hosted by Crazy Jones) has already made the news buzz. World Nut Daily and its prime racial agitator Asshat Colin Flaherty are gleefully running with it.

Somehow its going to be talked about on the racial shit holes. It's going to be on Breitfart and Loserville in the coming days. I bet ya money, one agitator will talk about it.

Five reasons to why I think it's sketchy.

1) Did the driver call dispatch? 

I don't know if the bus driver failed to contact the RTA Dispatch about the trolleybus being disabled upon route. I don't want to say that its not usual that a trolleybus breaks down. The driver usually would exit the vehicle to straighten out the pulley to connect back to the wiring. But somehow I would have thought the driver would have called support and remain on the bus.

2) Lakeview Avenue at the 1900 block is pretty quiet. 

There's no houses on that stretch of road. Lakeview Avenue was shortened about 2000 feet because of a right of way for the James H. McGee Boulevard extension. Many homes and old businesses were demolished.

Lakview Avenue is a neighborhood watch area. There hasn't been a major crime on this road in almost 15 years. The speed limit on the street in a residential neighborhood is 35 mph.

“It’s isolated and nothing’s coming down here,” said Mary Brooks who tells the Dayton Daily News.

Brooks lives on the 1800 block of Lakeview and runs a hair business in the same structure. Brooks’ home is one of the closest residences to the scene.

Not much goes on on Lakeview these days, said 75-year-old Bob Park, who owns a warehouse located on the 1900 block of Lakeview Avenue, which is the only building in the immediate vicinity of the scene. Park visits the property every day, but said he was not present during the alleged attack.

Park, however, said he has had no problems in about 15 years, and the area is fairly safe. He said he has good relationships with the neighbors, and he was dismayed to hear about the violent encounter.

“It’s really shocking that he could have been shot right here,” he said. “I think there are a lot of worse places on the east side than right here.”

The DeSoto Bass Apartments are a government funded housing unit.  That is the closet area near Lakeview Avenue. That area carries a large amount of crime but usually it's Black on Black crime.

3) The victim declines to talk to the press about his survival. 

Some people wouldn't want to speak to the press after being a survivor of a shooting. I know me personally, I wouldn't want the press to interview me in case the individuals could look me up on the internet and find my residence.

And the reasons for the press asking for a statement is the fact the victim claimed the Bible saved him.

That sensational stuff that drives Last Place News (CNN), Obama News (MSNBC) and Loserville (Fox News) to the area. Local junk food media is already making it a national event because of the potential to drive ratings and division among residents.

This is the type of stuff Collin Flaherty relishes in.

Earlier this year RTA managed to bring the bus to Beavercreek's retail complex. With three measly stops on Pentagon Boulevard and a nearly 120 minute waiting time, RTA got a small victory. The residents of Beavercreek are ready to have their "I TOLD YOU SO" signs at the corner of Pentagon and North Fairfield Road. This event could rile the residents of the staunchly conservative suburb.

I remember Ashley Todd, Bethany Storro and Susan Smith. These three women who managed to rile up the racist right with events they've pulled out their asses. Todd, a John McCain campaign volunteer tried to ruin Barack Obama. While given an assignment in Pittsburgh, she would be doing field registration. She would stir the racist right with a story of a robber who created a backwards B in her face and claim the robber wanted to show her that BARACK was going to win.

Storro was a partially deaf woman from Washington claimed a woman threw acid in her face. She was getting sympathy from the nation. When the FBI decided that the story wasn't adding up, Storro confessed that she put drain cleaner on her face and scarred herself.

Susan Smith of South Carolina managed to build this story of a Black man kidnapping her two children. The woman was in a divorce with her husband and was dating another guy at the time. Smith wanted to start a new life with this guy and lied to him about being a mother. So in order to keep this lie going, she would take her vehicle and drive it to a lake near her home. She currently facing life in the iron college.

One too many times, a racial hoaxer would concoct a story about an alleged Black man committing a crime upon a White person. Usually these stories play upon the racist right. They already believe Black people are "natural born criminals".

Rickey Wagoner is a 10 year driver for Greater Dayton RTA. He's been a dedicated and dutiful employee, Greater Dayton Regional Transit Executive Director Mark Donaghy said.

Wagoner was released from Miami Valley Hospital Tuesday afternoon. He ducked the cameras after being let out of the backdoor.

4) Description of suspects. 



In the video being displayed by the Dayton Daily News and Dayton Police, it shows that Wagoner leaving his bus. In about 40 seconds you hear a popping sound and then two more. Then of course Wagoner coming back on the bus cussing up a storm. The bus is equipped with sound and you can hear mostly him.

Wagoner, who is white, described the attackers as young black males wearing dark blue bandannas that covered their faces. He said they were likely in their late teens and fled in a dark-colored 1990s model Ford. No arrests have been made.

Wagoner told investigators he believed the shooting might have been a gang initiation.

Did they follow the bus?

Or did this random event happen upon a five minute frame?

5) On the edge of town. 

Some of my White co-workers will not go over to West Dayton because of perceived fears of being attacked by an individual. They avoid the city all together because of what the media tells them.

This city is still suffering from White flight. Many conservatives are attacking the cities because they believe that Democratic leaders are causing economic turmoils because of "da gubmint" and  "da leeches" milking off it.

Often times you hear conservative agitators rail on about "da gubmint" being in the business of America. They hate that. So they want the Republicans to win back control so they can be in "your business". They would rather see economic poverty erased by cutting off the safety net.

The poor, the disabled, the mentally insane and children better get to work. Because Republicans believe that too many of "you people" are milking "da gubmint". So you better pick up an application and get ya ass back to work.

Dayton, Ohio along with Detroit, Cincinnati, Flint, Cleveland, St. Louis, Baltimore, Milwaukee, Birmingham, Atlanta, Greensboro, Jacksonville, and Stockton are often attacked for being Black majority cities with high crime rates. Mayors are trying to dismiss the negative perceptions of being dangerous cities.

They often would encourage community outreach and often encourage neighborhood watch zones.

Many in the area are hoping that this incident would net arrests. Although it was early in the morning not too many had an opportunity to see what went on, I can testify that someone out there knows what happen.

If you do have information about the crime contact the Dayton Police at 937-333-COPS

Arizona Passed A Law That Openly Discriminates Against Minorities And LGBT!

Jan Brewer back in the news. Her state passed a right to discriminate law and if she signs it, she may face a boycott from civil rights groups.

Republicans are so fucking stupid. One breath they're saying they've freed the slaves, but in the next breathe they're enslaving the American people to their extremist agenda. You hear O'Loofus (Bill O'Reilly) and That Guy Who Helped Obama Win (Sean Hannity) rail against those "Leftists" trying to silence the freedom of speech.

But here in the state of Arizona, the freedom of expression and speech are being silenced by those backers of the "Racist Right".

The Republican governor Jan Brewer is back in the news.

She's at a crossroads with her Republicans and the constituents of her state.

A Republican endorsed bill was passed by the state house. It paved the way for legally discriminating those who go against traditionalist "Christian" values.

The law if signed by Brewer will allow businesses to discriminate on the grounds of religious beliefs.

This bill is so extreme, Arizona Republican U.S. Senators John McCain and Jeff Flake are concerned that the impact could damage the brand. Matter of fact, if this passed, the Justice Department will file a lawsuit against the law in federal court.

LGBT groups are pissed at the governor and Republicans for trying to establish Jim Crow in their state.

On that some businesses are urging Republicans to kill the bill because it could damage revenue and tourism.

The NFL is considering moving the Superbowl if the law is signed. The Superbowl XLIX is coming to Arizona.

La Raza, the NAACP, the ACLU and Human Rights Campaign are against it and threaten a boycott of the state.

That infamous finger in the face of President Barack Obama.

A dreadnought of the conservative cause, Brewer rarely shies from controversy and, often in the face of staunch political and economic backlash, has boldly defended her stances on the economy, gun rights, regulation, taxation, immigration and even wagging her finger in the face of President Barack Obama.

"I don't rely a whole lot on my gut because I have to look at what (the bill) says and what the law says and take that information and do the right thing," she said from the National Governors Association's winter meeting in Washington. "I will do the right thing for the state of Arizona."

But since Thursday, when the state House of Representatives OK'd the bill by a 33-27 margin and sent it to Brewer's desk, what's right for Arizona has become somewhat amorphous.

Already, three GOP senators who voted in favor of SB1062, including a co-sponsor, Sen. Bob Worsley, have changed their minds. The bill passed the state Senate 17-13 with the "yea" votes of the three senators.

"While our sincere intent in voting for the bill was to create a shield for all citizens' religious liberties, the bill has instead been mischaracterized by its opponents as a sword for religious intolerance. These allegations are causing our state immeasurable harm," Worsley and Sens. Adam Driggs and Steve Pierce said in a letter sent to Brewer on Monday.

You're welcomed to the state of Arizona.

CNN reports that Arizona's SB1062 has pulled off a sort of political magic trick, in that warring sides can read the bill's text and have not only different reactions, but completely opposite ones.

While proponents of gay rights dub the bill oppressive, those in favor of the bill becoming law say it represents freedom.

Brewer has until Saturday to make her call, and her fellow Republicans in the state Legislature have suggested that a veto is likely.

In short, SB1062 would amend the existing Religious Freedom Restoration Act, allowing business owners to deny service to gay and lesbian customers so long as proprietors were acting solely on their religious beliefs.

The bill's advocates insist that those claiming SB1062 amounts to bigotry and discrimination have hijacked and misrepresented its aims.

Harold Ramis Passed Away!

Famed comic writer and actor Harold Ramis passed away.

If you're a fan of the iconic movies Animal House, Caddyshack, Ghostbusters, and Groundhog Day, you can thank the Chicago actor and comedic writer Harold Ramis.

He passed away on Monday.

He and actor Dan Aykroyd were working on a revival of the movie franchise.

Ramis contracted an infection that resulted in complications from autoimmune inflammatory vasculitis. He lost the ability to walk; after relearning to do so, he suffered a relapse of the disease in late 2011.

On February 24, 2014, Ramis died at his Chicago-area home from complications arising from vasculitis.

He played the role of Egon Spangler, the de facto leader of Ghostbusters.

Harold Ramis (as Spangler), Ernie Hudson (as Zeddmore), Bill Murray (as Veckman) and Dan Aykroyd (as Stantz) in the iconic movie Ghostbusters.

Ghostbusters was a critical success, receiving a positive response from critics and audiences, while grossing US$238 million in the United States and more than $291 million worldwide. The film was nominated for two Oscars at the 57th Academy Awards ceremony for Best Visual Effects and Best Original Song (for the eponymous theme song), but lost both to Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and The Woman in Red respectively. The American Film Institute ranked Ghostbusters 28th in its AFI's 100 Years...100 Laughs list of film comedies. The film launched the Ghostbusters media franchise, which includes: a 1989 sequel, Ghostbusters II; two animated television series, The Real Ghostbusters and Extreme Ghostbusters; and several video games.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the family of Harold Ramis.

Ohio Woman Kills Marine In Hit-Skip Accident!

Monica Plank and her husband were struck by a hit and run driver. The driver was caught. Plank was killed after the vehicle struck her while she was walking near the road.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the family of Monica Plank.

A marine and her husband got into an argument near a restaurant. They walk down the road and all of a sudden a vehicle ends up hitting her and killing her. For nearly two weeks, there weren't answers until the break came Sunday.

A vehicle struck 34-four-year-old Monica Plank of Stafford, Va., on Sunday shortly after midnight as she walked from a restaurant in Bellefontaine.

The Bellefontaine Examiner  reports video shows two cars and a sport utility vehicle passing near where Plank was hit.

Police Chief Brandon Standley says investigators hope those drivers come forward because they may have seen something that could help resolve the case.

A funeral was scheduled on Saturday in West Liberty for Plank, who was married to a fellow Marine gunnery sergeant. They were in Bellefontaine to visit family.

The Dayton Daily News and the Associated Press report that Bellefontaine police arrested a woman Saturday night in relation to the Feb.16 hit-and-run fatal crash that killed Marine Gunnery Sergeant Monica Plank.

26-year-old Holly Fowler of Urbana is in the Logan County Jail and faces felony failure to stop after an accident and tampering with evidence charges
.
Bellefontaine Police were following leads at a local bowling alley, located four blocks from the crash scene, when they interviewed Fowler and examined her vehicle. The burgundy Chevy Malibu had evidence of damages consistent with the damages from the hit-skip scene, police said.

Holly Fowler is in Logan County lock up after evidence proved that she was the hit and run driver.

Fowler initially repeatedly denied any involvement in the fatal crash and denied knowing how the damages to her car occurred, but in a later interview at the Bellefontaine Police Department, she admitted responsibility for striking Plank on Feb. 16.

"We are relieved that we have been able to bring this case to some sort of closure for Mr. Plank and his family," said Bellefontaine Police Chief Brandon Standley.

"Our investigators have worked tirelessly to bring this case to a close, and we are confident we have built a solid case," he added.

Fowler is expected to appear in court Monday morning.

Robin Thicke & Paula Split....Hey Hey!!!

CNN May Ax Piers Morgan!

CNN is planning on bumping Piers Morgan off the primetime slot.

The struggling cable news network is getting ready to put its hammer on British tabloid journalist Piers Morgan.

After three years on air, CNN is getting rid of Piers Morgan Tonight tells David Carr of the New York Times.

Morgan took over Larry King's 9PM timeslot in 2011. Morgan's ratings were consistently low.

CNN sources confirmed the news to Politico.

As Carr points out, Morgan's contract is up in September. There's no word on whether he'll get another show or not.

“It’s been a painful period and lately we have taken a bath in the ratings,” Morgan told Carr. "I am a British guy debating American cultural issues, including guns, which has been very polarizing, and there is no doubt that there are many in the audience who are tired of me banging on about it."

The most memorable moments of Piers Morgan is the debate between extremist Alex Jones and him over the Sandy Hook shooting tragedy. Jones wanted Morgan deported for his stance on gun control.

Morgan also had Rachel Jeantel on his program before and after the verdict in the controversial George Zimmerman trial. The racist right was attacking Jeantel for being a big Black woman who had that "attitude".

Charlotte cook fired after comment to McCrory gets job offers | North Carolina News - WXII Home

CHARLOTTE, N.C. —The cook who was fired from his job at a Charlotte food store and restaurant after a confrontation with Gov. Pat McCrory this week says he's received several job offers.

The Charlotte Observer reported that Drew Swope said he's also gotten an offer of help from Mayor Patrick Cannon.

Swope was fired from Reid's Fine Foods on Sunday after he had a dispute with McCrory, who was in the store. Swope said he asked McCrory if he could help him and then said "thanks for nothing" when he realized he was speaking with the governor, with whom he disagrees politically.

Michele Bachmann: White Guilt Kept Me Outta Of The White House!

More stupid remarks from the controversial politico.

While she is under investigation by the feds for misuse of campaign funds during her ill fated presidential bid, the controversial Minnesota politico once again takes a direct and not so subtle jab at President Barack Obama.

The Congress wouldn't be the same without embattled Republican poltico Congresswoman Michele Bachmann. She is by far the most dumbest and most misinformed politico in Washington.

She's a birther, a deather, and a victim of the Benghazi flu. She is happy that John Wayne (Gacy) was a fellow Waterlooan, and she's got the cred of her fellow Tea Partiers for being one of the many wasted votes on repealing Obamacare.

Formerly a leading voice of the now defunct Tea Party Caucus, the controversial politico once again reflects on her defeat at the Iowa Caucus. She laid out her grievances about how White Americans had "guilt" about voting against the first Black president. She believes there's no way for a woman (let alone a Republican woman) to win the keys to the White House.

According to the controversial politico, the tide of white “guilt” that President Barack Obama rode into office will not be matched by a similar feelings for the former First Lady.

She believes that Benghazi flu is a better sword against a potential Hillary Clinton run. Why would the Republicans waste their time on Slick Willie?

“I think there was a cachet about having an African-American president because of guilt," says Bachmann.

She had put her heart and soul into a race that lead her and those seven other dopes to defeat. Her impact helped motivate Republicans to nominate the worst politico to ever run for office, perennial loser Mitt Romney.

As you know, Republicans were fearing that she could hurt their chances of holding on the House of Representatives. She was facing a tougher opponent from the Democratic Party.

In order to keep herself from an embarrassment, she decides to retire from Congress.

It gave Republicans a sigh of relief.

C.R.E.W. got her as one of the most corrupt lawmakers this year and last year.

If evidence proves that she's done wrong, get ready for her to be bitching about how "It's Obama's Fault" for her being tried for a federal crime. She could eventually get charged if the evidence is proven.

Only time can tell.

Here's her greatest hits!

G-UMOVE!

Media mogul 50 Cent departs from Interscope.

50 Cent announced that he's departed from Interscope Records.

Meaning that he's no longer associated with Eminem and Dr. Dre. The rapper was mentored through the years and managed to bring in lots of money. But now it's time for Curtis Jackson to make moves in order to eat.

50 Cent released a statement about the departure where he showed gratitude to his former bosses Dr. Dre, Eminem and Interscope head Jimmy Iovine.

"I have had great success to date with Shady/Aftermath/Interscope and I'd like to thank Eminem and Dr. Dre for giving me an incredible opportunity," he said in the statement. "I've learned so much from them through the years. I am excited to enter this new era where I can carry out my creative vision."

Eminem also released a statement about 50's departure and mentioned that the friendship he has with the Queens rapper will continue.

Them days are over.

"Both myself and Shady Records are grateful to have had the chance to play a part in 50′s career. Shady simply would not be what it is without 50 Cent," Eminem said. "I've developed a great friendship with 50 over the years, and that's not going to change. We know 50 will have success in his new situation, and we remain supporters of both him and G-Unit."

50 Cent decided to tell his relationship with Eminem and Dr. Dre through FORBES Magazine.

"I'm a special case and situation," 50 Cent said.

"It’s also because of the leverage of having the strong relationships with Eminem and Dr. Dre. They don’t want to me to be uncomfortable. They value our friendship to the point that they would never want [to jeopardize] it over that little bit of money."

He's left the label after numerous delays to his album Street King Immortal which was to be released on the Shady/Aftermath Records. A major move that came on the Friday news dump.

I guess Fiddy couldn't take it no more. Been over six years since he's released an album. Been on the label for over a decade and helped push Aftermath and Shady into the mainstream.

That comes a big surprise but not so much as a big deal.

The G-Unit capo has to make money moves. After all, he lost his core members (Lloyd Banks, Game and Young Buck). There's no talk about a G-Unit Reunion or make up sessions.

He overcame the death of Chris Lighty and Mazaradi Fox.

He feuded with Ja Rule, Rick Ross (aka Rozay), Jadakiss, Oprah, Bill O'Reilly, Lil' Wayne, Kanye West, Jay-Z, Game, Young Buck, and his own son.

He's tried miserably to kiss peeping tom victim Erin Andrews, smacked up his girlfriend and had a child with a model, and still promoted his audio sound equipment.

Could 50 Cent survive the independent circuit? I mean he did survive nine slugs in him.

His movies weren't up to par. He's doing reality television. Which is pretty much at the bottom of the barrel of being a "washed up celebrity".

I mean his biggest rival, Rick Ross a "somewhat" phony gangsta managed to win the battle of who's got the biggest balls. I mean his sixth album Mastermind is coming out in March (if it's not delayed) on Def Jam through his Maybach Music Group.

There's no more G-G-G-UNIT shout outs. No more mentions of SHADY/AFTERMATH from Fiddy.

He decided to take the independent route by signing to Caroline Records which is an affiliate to Capitol EMI records.

Game also did a similar move after being dropped from Aftermath and G-Unit. He apparently signed on to the Cash Money/Young Money label.

Well are you still rocking your G-Unit spinning chain?

Are you still eating those G-Unit protein bars?

What's your take on the decision of 50 Cent leaving Interscope Records?

Toni Braxton And Babyface: Love Marriage & Divorce!

Toni Braxton and Babyface reunite for a duet album.

The veteran R & B producer and crooner reunites with the pop singer to record a duet album.

The Island Def Jam Music Group now has control over the Motown Records label.

Love, Marriage & Divorce includes eleven tracks including their Adult R&B #1 single, "Hurt You" as well as the second single "Where Did We Go Wrong". The album was originally due for release on November 25, 2013, although its release was delayed until the week before Valentine's Day.

The album is Babyface’s first new studio album in nearly seven years and Toni’s first new album since 2010’s Pulse.

Toni announced that she was returning to music with a Summer Tour and that she was in the studio working on her eighth studio album. She also stated that the album will not be a traditional album but rather a collaboration album featuring long-time collaborator Babyface. The album will entirely consist of duets between Braxton and Babyface.

Longtime collaborator Babyface worked with Toni Braxton on their duet album.

Babyface said that "The whole perspective is guy and girl, Mars vs. Venus. Even if you're in love, you're in love for different reasons", while Braxton added: “I think because Babyface and I have both gone through divorces, we can relate and we can collaborate together on this topic and make it so others who have gone through this situation can relate". The album Love, Marriage & Divorce will be released on February 4, 2014, under Motown Records.

The 2013 Summer Tour kicked off in Las Vegas on August 9, 2013 and ended in Atlanta on August 31, 2013. The lead single from Love, Marriage & Divorce "Hurt You" premiered on August 17, 2013.

The song attained success, claiming the No. 1 spot on two charts: the Billboard Adult R&B Songs chart for four weeks, and the Urban Adult Contemporary (Urban AC) for the week ending Dec. 14, 2013. This marked Braxton's first No. 1 hit on the Adult R&B Songs chart since her 2000 release "Just Be a Man About It."

The song also hit number 16 on Billboard Hot R&B/ Hip Hop Airplay chart.

The second single from the album, "Where Did We Go Wrong?" debuted at No. 20 on the Adult R&B Songs chart.
