So, Ne-Yo was performing with Kells and got kicked off. Ne-yo was promised $700,000 and some changed and only made two performances. Although I have no idea exactly how much he was paid, it was significantly different.

Ne-Yo is saying that people got mad cause he was outshining the self-proclaimed “Pied Piper”. Leonard Rowe of Rowe Entertainment, R Kelly’s management, said there was only verbal agreements and nothing was written.

“I had no other alternative but to release Ne-Yo from the tour. From a business perspective, it would have been extremely difficult for me to continue under this cloud of uncertainty,” says Rowe.

The judge decided in Ne-Yo’s side.

D-D-D-D-D-D Damn! Yes, She iz bucked naked. My kinda magazine. What exactly is she talking about on the inside?! Don’t kno and don’t care. But we do have a sneak peak.

“I was meticulous about the things I would share, but people are gonna say what they wanna say … they said I was a man!” she laughed. “It doesn’t get any worse than that.”

Comedian Bernie Mac and Soul Legend Isaac Hayes have passed this pass week. We all morn the loss.

R.I.P.

The rapper Rick Ross appearently “borrowed” his name from a real drug dealer, “Freeway” Ricky Ross. And now Rick Ross wants to meet up with this dude in prison. And as it turns out, they never meet previously. Umm…. Yeah

Ross, the rapper, requested a visit a long time ago and never received a responce. And about 3 weeks ago this guy trys to just show up in prison and meet the guy. Result, the real Ross ignores him. Wow! Now that’s credibility. But can you really blame the guy. Some dude copyrights your name and starts rapping and you go to prison. Kind of like Curtis Jackson and the real 50 Cent, except they never met before. Curtis knew the real 50, snitched on him and then took his name. Ross just took his name.

“No I never told him it was okay to use my name. I told him I wasn’t trippin’ but we needed to sit down and talk. Cause I would never be involved with a Millie Vanilli. I built this name to what it is today to where I can go to any prison in this country and get saluted.” This coming from Ricky Ross

Rappers are so cool now

What?! Really?! Yeah! Killa Cam sold his man’s contract to anotha label. What the hell is happening to Dipset?! They’ve turned into like 50 sub gang’s. Jimmy has his Barney look-a-like people and now Juelz iz rockstar’d out.

On Miss Info’s blog, Juelz responds to Cam’s sale:

A! What’s good !! Yeah, I’m free!! And ready to do me!! But its still Dip Set 4 life!! Its just going to be a new chapter!! I have no hard feeling for Cam, after all, he did give me a chance!!! But I will say this I was loyal to him and he took advantage. I would like to say sorry to all my fans, and the DJs, and most of all, my city, New York. Play time is over. I’m back. Y’all niggas know what time it is.”

I don’t know if you just read what I did but I’m confused as hell. So are you mad or not?! Somebody help me out.

Ludacris put some crack down on his latest freestyle “Politics (Obama is Here).” Who wouldn’t be honored to have a rap verse dedicated to them?! Well, Barack wouldn’t.

In the track, Ludacris praises Obama and all his glory. However, he goes on to attack Sen. Clinton, Pres. Bush, and Rev. Jesse Jackson. That is where Barack says Luda went too far.

“As Barack Obama has said many, many times in the past, rap lyrics today too often perpetuate misogyny, materialism, and degrading images that he doesn’t want his daughters or any children exposed to. This song is not only outrageously offensive to Senator Clinton, Reverend Jackson, Senator McCain, and President Bush, it is offensive to all of us who are trying to raise our children with the values we hold dear. While Ludacris is a talented individual he should be ashamed of these lyrics.”

As you can tell, that statement is too boring to actually have been written by Sen. Obama himself. It was released by his spokeswomen, Melanie Roussell. But it is his opinion.

Barack Obama has stated many times that he likes rap music but does not agree with its content. He is still on the same side and has not changed his point of view. The guy actually listens to rap hip-hop, which is more than you can say for most men his age. He supports young entreprenuers but wishes they would release less offensive lyrics. The man still has my vote.

Black in America

You should be watching this. We have enough negative images of us being pumped into people’s head that we continue to support. This is one show that actually gives some of these people both side of the story. Make sure you support!

Plus Soledad O’Brien’s sexy ass is hosting. You get to see her and all of her glory sit there for an hour. Who wouldn’t want to see that?!

Nas petitions Fox News

We all know most rappers to be all talk. I mean no one really expects all the killing to actually go on. But Nas has a song on his latest album, “Untitled,” entitled “Sly Fox.” In which song, he talks about how the Fox network only supports racist material on its shows.

That is enough for most people. But not Nas! He took to the streets along side ColorOfChange.org and over 620,000 people and petitioned Fox News. Take that media machine! Color Of Change was kind enough to make a commercial about it. Thanks guys.

rick ross

Lesson #1: it is never a good idea to say bad things to the media.

Rick Ross, the self proclaimed “biggest boss,” always talk about how much drugs he used to sell. In fact, that is the only image you probably think of when you see him. Well then…. the smoking gun.com has something to say about that.

They actually claimed that they have a picture of him in a Correction’s Officer’s uniform. Ross denied the accussation stating that they were “photoshopped” pictures and it was altered. The Smoking Gun did not like that. They are a credible gossip source and will stand by their info. Soo…..

They pulled a document with his name and salary on it. Yeah!!!! And Ross hasn’t said anything else since then.

If you need the actual story from The SmokingGun, Click Here. I don’t want to take credit for finding the story. I just want to let you know about it.

So here’s the scoop. Some lady gets caught out there wearing a t-shirt that says “Obama is my slave.” And then, some random person knocks her block off. SCENE!

That is what you get stupid. Are you kidding me?! I didn’t even hear of any arest being made or nothing. My kind of justice. And don’t feel bad because it was a 25-year old chick from NYC. She should have known better. This aint your first walk in the park. and know she is trying to sue the designer. And that is another can of worms.

Yeah.. these are in his clothing line!!

Apollo Braun, the designer, is saying “that [his] designs reflect the views of “ordinary WASPs (White Anglo Saxon Protestants).” This store is in NYC people! This guy is not from a book. He is currently breathing in the most popular city in the world. Plus he goes on to say such things as “For a lot of people, when they see Obama, they see a slave. People think America is not ready for a black president.” Uh huh… This guy is a thinker

And if you didn’t yet realize that this guy is an idiot, He said he doesn’t like Obama because he is a Muslim. Yeah, he said that. (Umm.. didn’t he just leave Jeremiah Wright’s church?! I thought he was a Baptist preacher.)and if you feel the need to, his info is all over the web.
