South Of West Kardashian!

Khloe Kardashian dating French Montana. Another stupid story about the Kardashians.

Khloe Kardashian found her a new friend. Being estranged from dope head Lamar Odom is probably a good thing for her. But to turn up with a guy who claims he's a "coke boy", well you know how this story goes! 

This new friend who like guns and acting like a total "gangsta".

Somali-born rapper French Montana is an artist who is affiliated with Sean "Mr. Puff" Combs' Bad Boy label and joint associated with Rick Ross' Maybach Music Group.

He's the rising act in a saturated market of "STREET NIGGAS".

He released the Excuse My French album last year and is known to drop a mixtape or two during his downtime.

I guess he's dating the reality turd. The reality turd is sister of Kim Kardashian-West, the wife of rap producer/entertainer Kanye West.

The Huffington Post reports that Khloe Kardashian is under fire after posting a controversial photo to her Instagram account on June 2.

In the black and white picture, the 29-year-old reality star poses with rumored boyfriend French Montana, who is holding a machine gun while Kardashian drinks champagne from the bottle. "About to go gucci maaannnnnn. #MovieSet #JustDifferent @frenchmontana," she captioned the snapshot. Montana also posted the photo to his account, writing, "#bangbang."


The picture was allegedly taken on the set of DJ Khaled's new music video for "They Don't Love You No More," which Montana has been filming in Miami, Florida. The song also features Jay Z, Rick Ross and Meek Mill.

Some of Kardashian's followers were not happy with the picture, taking to her Instagram page to voice their opinions. "Guns should not be glamorized," one commenter wrote, with others posting, "So disrespectful to those who have lost people recently" and "You are a role model!! Alcohol and guns DO NOT MIX."

The Kardashians are probably one of the most hated celebrities out there. I understand that they value a certain group of stans, but reality shows us nothing but utter ignorance.

Justin Bieber: Yo, Dawg, I Was Just Foolin!

Pop singer caught the blues.

The Canadian entertainer and notorious bad boy has once again put his problems out there for the public.

This time I guess he's trying to be just like "us Black folk". He apparently got in some serious trouble over the weekend after it was revealed that he told a racist joke involving the N-word.

I am also guessing in his inner circle, someone happened to drop that gem on the public for the right amount of money.

CNN reports that a video, posted to TMZ.com, the pop star, then 15, asks: "Why are black people afraid of chain saws?"

He answers his own question: "Run n*****, n*****, n*****, n*****," he says, imitating the sound of a chain saw. Then he laughs.

TMZ reported it got the video four years ago but decided against posting it then because of Bieber's age and because he "immediately told his friends what he did was stupid." It was reportedly shot backstage at a promotional event.

"As a young man, I didn't understand the power of certain words and how they can hurt. I thought it was OK to repeat hurtful words and jokes, but didn't realize at the time that it wasn't funny and that in fact my actions were continuing the ignorance," Bieber, now 20, said in a statement.

He added: "I take my friendships with people of all cultures very seriously and I apologize for offending or hurting anyone with my childish and inexcusable mistake. I was a kid then and I am a man now who knows my responsibility to the world and to not make that mistake again."

The video is the latest in a string of troubles for the star, who shot to fame as a fresh-faced teen.

There was a DUI arrest in Miami, an assault charge in Toronto and a felony vandalism probe in Los Angeles.

Also, the Federal Aviation Administration is investigating allegations that Bieber and other passengers aboard a charter flight from Canada to New Jersey's Teterboro Airport interfered with the flight crew.

None of the criminal charges that Bieber faces appear to threaten his freedom. Probation sentences, fines, community service and counseling are routinely given in such cases.

Opinion: Bieber, don't argue with the lawyers.

The entertainer currently lives in Atlanta and travels between there, Los Angeles and  his hometown of London, Ontario.

This year on the White House petition website, Bieber managed to earn over 270,000 signatures for him to have his American citizenship revoked. He has duel citizenship.

Being Washed Up Isn't The Only Thing Haunting 50 Cent!

Media mogul mocked for weak pitch.

The American public is totally over Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson.

The release of Animal Ambition is anticipated. This is the first album since 50 Cent parted ways from Interscope Records. After 13 years on Aftermath Entertainment and Shady Records. the media mogul decided to take his business to the Caroline Records label.

Since this is an independent release, some say that this may be the end of 50 Cent's career as a rapper.

I remember everyone was so into 50 Cent. People (including myself) were buying G-Unit merchandise, G-Unit sneakers, G-Unit Vitamin Water, and the video games.

I mean he released the 8 times platinum album Get Rich or Die Tryin' in 2003 and took off.

Now over 10 years since the release, it's been a downward slide for him. He along with his former crew have suffered the fate of many in the entertainment industry.

People aren't into the act. 50, Game, Young Buck, Tony Yayo and Lloyd Banks have permanently damaged their careers with not only tier egos, but their reckless behavior.

It got worse for 50. He decides to do a ceremonial pitch at a New York Mets and Pittsburgh Pirates game.

It was one of the worst pitches ever.

Any thoughts on the pitch?

Arseino Hall Got Axed!

CBS Television announced the abrupt cancellation of Arsenio Hall's late night program.

You stand next to him, you're going down! The famous words of soon to be washed up celebrity Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson on the feud with Game (another soon to be washed up celebrity).

Well I guess when That Guy Who Helped Obama Win interviewed Arsenio Hall, it must have turned off a lot of his supporters. For you see, even with a great start, you can't survive if the ratings bar fails to move.

CBS Television announced the cancellation of The Arsenio Hall Show. After one season, the show which was distributed on many CW affiliates was given the ax. It failed to live up to the challenges of late night.

With David Letterman, Jimmy Fallion, Seth Meyers, Jimmy Kimmel and Craig Ferguson leading the late night gig, Arsenio was supposed to be the return of the old guard.

CBS Television Production had previously announced Hall's syndicated show would be back for a second season, but faced the prospect of stations moving it to lesser time slots as ratings fell.

In a statement, Hall said he knew launching the show would be a challenge.

"I'm gratified for the year we've had and proud of the show we created," the actor and comedian added.

The show is in reruns and won't resume production, a show spokesman said. The last original episode aired May 21.

When Hall began his original series in 1989, he was seen as the cool alternative to Johnny Carson and "The Tonight Show" on NBC. Guests including sax playing-presidential candidate Bill Clinton helped push Hall into the spotlight.

By 1994, with increased competition from new "Tonight" host Jay Leno and CBS' David Letterman, Hall's ratings had slipped and the show ended.

When Hall returned last year, he was fighting for attention with even more programs, including ABC's Jimmy Kimmel and the Comedy Central lineup.

The cancellation of Hall's show returns the late-night talk show scene to almost uniformly white male hosts, with a few exceptions such as Tavis Smiley on PBS.

APPLE BEATS!

Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine sold Beats Audio to Apple. Jimmy Iovine will resign from Interscope.

As of today, Beats Audio is now part of the Apple.

In a historic move, Interscope CEO Jimmy Iovine and media mogul Dr. Dre will relinquish their role to join Apple for input on the next wave of creative products. This also means the end of an era for Iovine. He will leave the Interscope company he founded in the 1980s.

The announcement caps off weeks of speculation surrounding the deal, which will see Beats co-founders Jimmy Iovine and Dr. Dre join Apple to play an unspecified role. Apple will pay $2.6 billion in cash and $400 million in equity that will vest over time, the company said. "I've always known in my heart that Beats belonged with Apple," music mogul Iovine said in a statement. "The idea when we started the company was inspired by Apple's unmatched ability to marry culture and technology. Apple's deep commitment to music fans, artists, songwriters and the music industry is something special.

John Janick will now take over the role as leader for Interscope. Iovine will step down from his chairmanship after the end of June.

Interscope, A&M and Geffen are part of the umbrella that Iovine had control over. The label talents included Dr. Dre, Eminem, Mary J. Blige, Robin Thicke, The Black Eye Peas, Chief Keef, Madonna and Kendrick Lamar.

The American Suicide Bomber!

Could we see  a mass causality attack carried out by an American suicide bomber?

This week closes out with the death of an American suicide bomber blowing himself up in Syria.

The individual known as Abu Hurayra al-Amriki (Hummad The American), was one of the many individuals who blow himself up in the country. U.S. Intelligence reports that this individual was born in the United States and live a portion of his life in Florida.

Now the American intelligence agencies are determined that this event will not happen here.

Again, the nice guy is the most dangerous individual in the world. People who are bullied, rejected and often rejected by others will become delusional and find outlets to channel their rage.

Some may invest their time into doing things like find outlets like social groups. Others would find firearms and plans of bring utter chaos to those who didn't even cross the "nice guy's" path.

Regardless of the race, gender, sexuality, nationality, political or economic standings, the mentally insane or a terrorist will disrupt or permanently shock those with this dangerous behavior. They don't care who lives are affected, it's a matter of showing the world they mean business.

CNN reports that the truck was loaded with munitions, then driven up a hillside in northern Syria. Moments later, there was a massive blast followed by cries of "Allahu Akbar," or "God is great" in Arabic, and the rattling of gunfire.

The suicide attacker in the bombing depicted in this online video was an American jihadi, radical Islamists claiming responsibility for the blast have said.

Late Thursday, two U.S. officials confirmed their boast.

The man called by the nom de guerre Abu Hurayra Al-Amriki was a U.S. citizen, who grew up in Florida and went to school there.

Neither official would disclose the bomber's real name. Investigators are interviewing family members.

Al-Amriki is among a group of Americans whom intelligence agents have been trying to keep tabs on since they went to Syria some months ago to join extremists in the fight against the Syrian government.

Even if he clearly did not act alone, it is the man identified as Abu Hurayra who has gotten a lot of attention on websites and social media venues tied to radical Islamists.

That includes a tweet by a man with the handle Abu Suleiman al-Muhajer, whose bio identifies him as belonging to al Qaeda in the Levant, the umbrella organization for the al-Nusra Front. His tweet, which was published on the radical Islamist website Hanein, features the alleged American's picture and the words, "Abu Hurayra Al-Amriki performed a martyrdom operation in Idlib, Jabal Al-Arba'een. May Allah accept him."

U.S. intelligence and law enforcement officials have expressed concerns about Americans joining the fight in Syria, including with groups like the jihadist al-Nusra Front. The worry is that they and other Westerners might pose a threat when they return a home.

"There's going to be a diaspora out of Syria," FBI Director James Comey said last week. "And we are determined not to let lines be drawn from Syria today to a future 9/11."

The Road That Led To West Kardashian!



She will always be known as Kim Kardashian. The controversial reality turd who gained fame from being Ray-J's first sex tape experience has married rap producer and entertainer Kanye West.

Her formal name is Kim Kardashian-West.

The two were married in a ceremony over in Italy. This being Mrs. West's third and Kanye's first.

They had a child earlier this year.

The evil paparazzi managed to leak out photos of the wedding. Nah, it's obtained from the E! Network.

The E! Network has a show called Keeping Up With The Kardashians. The show features that woman and her family.

My suspicions are growing about the possibility of the marriage being a sham. But I am just a hater and I don't care for both of them.

Anyway, I wish them well on their future.

Little sis, Khloe who is estranged from her dope head former NBA husband Lamar Odom went to the Instagram social network to show the proof.

Quote Of The Day


Maya Angelou Passes Away!

President Barack Obama offers the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Maya Angelou.

Breaking today, the famed poet and civil rights activist died today according to most sources.

Maya Angelou was born Marguerite Ann Johnson; April 4, 1928 – May 28, 2014. 

Maya Angelou was an American author and poet. She published seven autobiographies, three books of essays, and several books of poetry, and is credited with a list of plays, movies, and television shows spanning more than fifty years. She received dozens of awards and over thirty honorary doctoral degrees. Angelou is best known for her series of seven autobiographies, which focus on her childhood and early adult experiences. The first, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings (1969), tells of her life up to the age of seventeen, and brought her international recognition and acclaim.

She became a poet and writer after a series of occupations as a young adult, including fry cook, prostitute, night-club dancer and performer, cast-member of the opera Porgy and Bess, coordinator for the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, and journalist in Egypt and Ghana during the days of decolonization. She was an actor, writer, director, and producer of plays, movies, and public television programs. Since 1982, she taught at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, where she holds the first lifetime Reynolds Professorship of American Studies. 

She was active in the Civil Rights movement, and worked with Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X. Since the 1990s she made around eighty appearances a year on the lecture circuit, something she continued into her eighties. 

In 1993, Angelou recited her poem "On the Pulse of Morning" at President Bill Clinton's inauguration, the first poet to make an inaugural recitation since Robert Frost at John F. Kennedy's inauguration in 1961.

With the publication of I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, Angelou publicly discussed aspects of her personal life. She was respected as a spokesperson of black people and women, and her works have been considered a defense of black culture. Although attempts have been made to ban her books from some US libraries, her works are widely used in schools and universities worldwide. Angelou's major works have been labeled as autobiographical fiction, but many critics have characterized them as autobiographies. She made a deliberate attempt to challenge the common structure of the autobiography by critiquing, changing, and expanding the genre.

 Her books center on themes such as racism, identity, family, and travel. Angelou is best known for her autobiographies, but she is also an established poet, although her poems have received mixed reviews.

Angelou was found dead by her caretaker on the morning of May 28, 2014. She had reportedly been in bad health and had canceled recent scheduled appearances.

No Rap Geniuses Here!

Mahbod Moghadam was shown the door after he said that mass shooter's rampage was justified.

Mahbod Moghadam, the co-founder of social networking website RapGenius was force to resign after he endorsed the idea of Eliot Rodger's murderous rampage.

We live in a sick world when people start flocking around a mass killer because of his disgust of society.

How on earth can people relate to a man who could inspire a domestic attack on people who never knew him or ever had a chance to defend themselves?

This parallels to the conservative junk food agitators attacking the father of a victim. They claim that they feel "sorry" for the man that he lost his child, but he had no business bringing up the NRA or guns into the picture.

They believe that Rodger killed three with a knife. A knife is just a deadly says the conservative agitators.

HipHopDX reports that Moghadam, one of Rap Genius' co-founders, has resigned from the company following annotations he made regarding Elliot Rodger.

Rodger is a man law enforcement officials believe went on a killing spree near University of California, Santa Barbara recently, killing at least 6 people and injuring several others, before reportedly killing himself.

Moghadam's annotations, which have since been deleted, were placed on Rap Genius' site, annotating the 141-page manifesto believed to have been left behind by Rodger. In his annotations, Moghadam says at least part of Rodger's document is "beautifully written" and that Rodger's sister is likely "smokin hot."

"I was fascinated by the fact that a text was associated with such a heartbreaking crime, especially since Elliot is talking about my neighborhood growing up," Moghadam reportedly said in a statement to Gawker. "I got carried away with making the annotations and making any comment about his sisters was in horrible taste, thankfully the [Rap Genius] community edits out my poor judgment, I am very sorry for writing it."

Tom Lehman, who is a co-founder and CEO of Rap Genius, announced Moghadam's resignation yesterday (May 26). He said Moghadam “not only didn’t attempt to enhance anyone’s understanding of the text, but went beyond that into gleeful insensitivity and misogyny. All of which is contrary to everything we’re trying to accomplish at Rap Genius.

"I cannot let him compromise the Rap Genius mission,” Lehman added.

Rap Genius was founded by Moghadam, Lehman and Ilan Zechory in 2009. The three Yale students raised millions to back their company and have been involved in controversy surrounding publishing licenses for its content. Recently, the company worked with publishers and the National Music Publishers Association to help correct this issue.

Rap Genius was also targeted by Google within the last year for link schemes which impacted the company's standing with the search engine. Rap Genius returned to Google soon after being punished by the search engine. Their statement about the link issue included an apology to its readers and Google.

"To Google and our fans: we’re sorry for being such morons," the statement said. "We regret our foray into irrelevant unnatural linking. We’re focused on building the best site in the world for understanding lyrics, poetry, and prose and watching it naturally rise to the top of the search results."

Lehman's full statement regarding Mahbod Moghadam's resignation, as printed on Rap Genius, is below:

"Yesterday the Rap Genius community annotated Elliot Rodger’s manifesto on News Genius. Because this tragedy is still so raw, there was internal debate as to whether this document belonged on the site at all. Ultimately we decided that it was worthy of close reading – understanding the psychology of people who do horrible things can help us to better understand our society and ourselves.

"The current version of the annotated document is far from great, but the hope is that the annotations will improve over time as the story unfolds and it will eventually be a good resource for people looking to understand this tragedy.

"Almost all the annotations were at least attempting a close reading – they were genuinely, though imperfectly, trying to add context to the text and make it easier to understand.

"However, Mahbod Moghadam, one of my co-founders, annotated the piece with annotations that not only didn’t attempt to enhance anyone’s understanding of the text, but went beyond that into gleeful insensitivity and misogyny. All of which is contrary to everything we’re trying to accomplish at Rap Genius.

"Were Mahbod’s annotations posted by a new Rap Genius user, it would be up to our community leaders, who set the tone of the site and our approach to annotation, to delete them and explain to the new user why they were unacceptable.

"Were Mahbod’s annotations posted by a Rap Genius moderator, that person would cease to be an effective community leader and would have to step down.

"And Mahbod, our original community leader, is no exception. In light of this, Mahbod has resigned – both in his capacity as an employee of the company, and as a member of our board of directors, effective immediately.

"Mahbod is my friend. He's a brilliant, creative, complicated person with a ton of love in his heart. Without Mahbod Rap Genius would not exist, and I am grateful for all he has done to help Rap Genius succeed. But I cannot let him compromise the Rap Genius mission – a mission that remains almost as delicate and inchoate as it was when we three founders decided to devote our lives to it almost 5 years ago."
