YO! MOS DEF SPAZZED ON PHOTOGRAPHER?
I don’t know if you know, but Mos Def does not like to have
his picture taken without his consent. He is sort of like me in that regards.
Well, Mos was at the Magic Convention out in Las Vegas and well…a photographer didn’t know
said rule. Fact: Mos Def WILDED out on a photographer at Magic. He was walking
in and someone tried to take his pic. According to witnesses, he began
yelling "Everyone knows I don't
take pictures!" Hey, I know! Who was this photog? He must have been with
tmz. Anyway, Mos allegedly grabbed the camera. Now the photographer guy says
that his camera is all messed up and broken. He also said the he was bleeding.
I did hear Mos gave him fair warning. The Photog reportedly plans to sue Mos
Def. I’m hearing that Mos' lady friend was trying to calm him down, but he
wasn't hearing it. He was supposed to make an appearance but he just bailed.
Fame just isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be.
FOXY BROWN MOURNS
Dancehall artist Spragga Benz, star of “Shottas” and
longtime love of Foxy Brown, lost his 15 year old son
to gunfire in Kingston, Jamaica this weekend. Carlyle
Grant, who played a "young Spragga" in his movie Shottas was shot and
killed Saturday night. Our deepest condolences go out to Spragga Benz and
family.
Rumor has it, Foxy is going to the funeral in Jamaica.
Would she be saying this if Pac or Biggie was alive? Too bad
we'll never know. What we do know is that times must be hard for the former
"First Lady of BadBoy" if she has to stoop to these levels to sell
books.
50 CENT IS WRONG –
OFFERING DOWNLOADS OF GAME’S ALBUM!
Now, 50 Cent is dead wrong for this one! They are offering
straight up downloads of The Game’s new CD…and calling it a mixtape on his site. The ad said
it is “LAX: Featuring EVERYONE,” trying to say The Game has too many guests.
Like Buck said...that's just wrong.
BIGGIE REALLY WANTED
FOXY?
This book Faith is releasing is really the real deal. I just
hope all the good content isn’t on the net. They need to send me a copy. What’s
good?
Even before we moved to
Brooklyn, I noticed that Big was kind of rough
and abrasive toward Kim. I once heard him screaming on her at his mother's
house although I had no idea why.
"You think you special? He screamed. "I'll go get Inga right
now." While Kim cried, Big kept yelling at her. "We don't need you
for this group. Inga would be happy to be down." (The "Inga" he
was referring to was a sixteen year old rapper named Foxy
Brown who would go on to be Kim's nemesis)
"You ain't special," He said. "I will replace you’re a** with
the quickness. Don't forget that s**t."
I think seeing the way they talked to her and about her made me dismiss her. I
usually have Spider-Man senses when it comes to other women. But with Kim,
there was nothing."
I remember going to a hotel room in Manhattan
where Big was staying. And when I got there, Kim was on her way out. She ended
up hanging around for a bit longer and getting a ride back to Brooklyn
with me.
"I know you're Big's wife," she said, as I drove us over the Brooklyn Bridge. "We're more like brother
and sister."
I just nodded. My Lil' Kim bulls**t detector was still set on off.
THE OUTLAWZ AIN’T
TRYING TO HEAR WHAT FAITH IS SAYING!
EDI of The Outlawz released a statement to streethop.com to
counter the allegations in the book by Faith Evans. I knew somebody was going
to step up to the plate!
"Let me start off by saying that
this is not an attempt to fight Tupac's battles. Over the past twelve years
there have been numerous articles, books, DVD's, movies, interviews, etc about
Pac and his life. We normally do not speak nor comment on [bulls**t] because
it's really not worth it and we all have better things to do than argue with
idiots.
But recently I heard about a book by Faith Evans and there is an excerpt
released to the media in which she portrays Tupac as some sort of sick gorilla
pimp or sex offender. Of course Ms. Evans wants you, the reader, to see her as
the victim, even though she admits to cheating on her husband with not one but
two different men at the same time; but Tupac wasn't one of them? Of course!
Look none of us was there when it happened but I know what Pac told us and Pac
was a lot of things, but a liar he was not.
I am sure the publishers would not have cut her the check if my homies' name
was not in the book, so I understand her dilemma. But it is cowardice to make
such an allegation when he isn't even here to defend himself.”
ILLSEED’S QUICKIES
There was a dude that had a rumor and strong words for The
Game and Bow Wow a couple days ago. That dude got so many threats to my inbox.
I’m glad he didn’t show his name!
Rumor had it that M.C. Breed and Dustin from B5 got arrested
on Sunday in the ATL. I don’t know who
Dustin is, but I heard they might have found dust in the whip.
There is a nasty rumor floating around that someone really
close to Ciara paid rapper Bugsy 25K to expose Lil Bow Wow if you will. I don’t
know what there is to “expose,” but it must be serious!
If you didn’t know, now you know. Angel
Lola Luv is now a rapper. Click here to read the story.
Is Bow Wow making it difficult for Bugsy…dare I say
blackballing him?
I am hearing that Janet Jackson and Alicia Keys are all set
to duet on a charitable AIDS song – together. Big!
I am hearing that Russell Simmons wont attend his own
Hip-Hop Summit at the DNC in Denver.
Hmmmmm….This is historic and R.S. endorsed Obama...
KARRINE “SUPERHEAD”
STEFFANS RETIRES?
She retired at the age of 30!?! What is she retiring from? I’m
not going to answer that. On second thought. She even said, “I’m taking the ‘S’
off my chest.” I guess that says it all.
