TODAY’S RUMORS!
LUPE’S TALKING ABOUT CRS
It looks like Hip-Hop is about to witness another super group. Lupe Fiasco has reportedly stated that the “Glow In The Dark” tour will yield some surprises. What sort of shockers? Well, I heard Lupster, Pharrell and Kanye West are going to unveil CRS during the tour. Now there is still an element of mystery. Nobody is saying if this is a new group, just an album or some other phenomenon. Tour will tell…I mean, time will tell.
Also, the Luper Man is still talking that retirement stuff, from what I have gathered. He’s sticking to three albums and being out. I heard he is super happy with the way The Cool has been received by the fans, stans and critics. I heard that he’s already plotting his next CD and said that it will be another conceptual work. OK, LUPSTER! I see you! I’m actually interested!
FROM THE TRAP MUZIK TO CHURCH MUSIC!
All those Fed charges has seemed to bring the God out of T.I. Over the weekend, Tip celebrated Easter Sunday (or Resurrection Sunday) at the Georgia Dome with about 30,000 other people in a mass service lead by Super Pastor Eddie Long. 30,000? They could start a Black Liberation country! I heard T.I. took to the stage and not to rap either. He was there to do a lil’ sermon of his own.
Tip reportedly told the crowd,“We’re here to celebrate the death of our Lord and Savior. He was willing to give his life for us so that we may ask for forgiveness for our sins and be forgiven and saved…no matter how many times we have to ask…or how long it takes to get it right.”
I wonder how long this will last and will this God-like manner be reflected on his next CD. Thanks to Necole.
FOXY BROWN READY TO COME HOME?
I am getting a good word that Foxy Brown will be home from her short bid at Rikers in the latter part of April. From there, she is supposed to do a remake of her newest CD called the Brooklyn Don Diva. The new album is supposed to feature new collaborations with people such Swizz BEatz, Kanye West, Amy Winehouse, Dwele and AZ, among others. I think they should have just released the best version first. <!–[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]–><!–[endif]–>
UK PRESS REJECTS CHRIS BROWN?
It appears that his lil’ stunt with girlfriend Rihanna isn’t working so well right now for Chris Brown. I heard the press over in the UK really only cared about asking him one question: “Are you and Rihanna an item?” Well, the sources I know over in the UK said that he denied the relationship every step of the way as if all those paparazzi pics never existed. Anyway, I heard that the press was forbidden to ask it after a while and they just opted not to interview Mr. Brown. Nevertheless, Brownie was seen out with Ri Ri on Friday at the Kaberet Club in London on Friday and I heard they were making out like a pair of 19-year-olds! Oh wait, they kinda are about that age. To add insult to injury, during his performance at 1Xtra Live on Saturday, Chris picked Rihannas ‘Please Don’t Stop the Music’ as one of the songs he chose to dance to in a skit.
JAY-Z AND MARY BLAST OFF IN MIAMI!
My homebody Joe went to the Mary / Jay-Z concert as it kicked off in Miami. Here is what he had to say:
“Ay man, I just came from the Jay and Mary concert in its opening show here in Miami tonight and, DAMN!!!, it was da shittttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yo illseed, both of them shut it down. But Jay was da MAN!!!!!!!! I dont even wanna spoil it for you, cause i know you said that you’ll be going to one of the shows! So all i can say is, GET READY, AND ENJOY!!!!!”
I guess I am gonna have to come out!
R.I.P.
Corinne Bailey Rae’s husband has been found dead. Jason Rae was only 31. According to early reports, it was a drug overdose. The police discovered the body of the Scottish-born saxophonist at an apartment at the Hyde Park area of Leeds in the UK. The police have already arrested a man they think supplied the drugs to him. He has been released on bail.
ESTELLE GETS MAD – SORTA!
Estelle is reportedly a bit upset with the reports that the Glastonbury Music Festival has gone “Urban” just because Jay-Z is the headlining act! As you know, or should know, the ticket sales have been a lil’ sluggish with a rapper holding it down. Popular music is popular music, she’s reportedly maintained. Now, this is funny. After finding out that she had the No. 1 song in the UK with “American Boy,” I heard that she and Kanye had an interesting interaction on their email. It went a bit something like this.
Estelle: “I just wanted to let you know that ‘American Boy’ hit number one! (Kanye is on that song)”
Kanye: “That’s so dope.”
Estelle: “No congrats to you.”
Kanye: “No, you.”
Estelle: “No, you.”
Kanye: “No, you.”
Estelle: “No, you.”
Kanye: “No, you.”
Estelle: “No, you.”
Kanye: “No, you.”
Estelle: “No, you.”
Kanye: “No, you.”
Estelle: “No, you.”
Kanye: “No, you.”
Estelle: “No, you.”
Kanye: “No, you.”
Estelle: “No, you.”
I heard they are still going back and forth congratulating each other right now.
POLOW DA DON GETS A HUG
KELLY ROWLAND STEPS OUT ON HER OWN!
I still love Kelly and I keep tabs on her here and there. From what I heard, she is going to be starting her next CD this week. I also heard she is working with European producers to give her a different sound and flair. From what I heard, this is her effort to get ahead of the curve of what is eventually going to be hot. To keep that going, I heard she got a “flat” in the UK so that she’s in the mix at any given time. She is already working with artists from the area already.
SHOUT OUT TO TRINITY CHURCH IN CHICAGO!
I might have to go there for a visit now that people are trying to diss the church like they worship the Devil or something. Anyway, I’m rockin’ with Trinity so I want all you skeptics and brainwashed people to go to their youtube page at http://www.youtube.com/user/TRINITYCHGO and see what the now-retired Rev. Wright really said IN CONTEXT, not a 2 sec snippet. People are railroaded so easily.

RANDOM QUOTES
Juelz Santana on his status:
“Jim has ByrdGang Records, Zeekey has 730Dips, and now I have Skull-Gang which is like the penthouse in the Dipset building. I’ve got a lot of talent from R&B to Rappers and they’re all from different regions. As far as me, I’ve been getting a lot of TV hosting opportunities and still tour with other big acts and rip shows better than them most times so that clearly tells you that while I’ve been gone, people are still interested in me.”
Chris Rock on why Michelle Obama or any other Black woman can’t be the First Lady of America (Rolling Stone):
“I don’t think a Black woman can be First Lady of the United States. Yeah, I said it! A Black woman can be president, no problem. First lady? Can’t do it. You know why? Because a Black woman cannot play the background of a relationship. Just imagine telling your Black wife that you’re president? ‘Honey, I did it! I won! I’m the president.’ ‘No, we the president! And I want my girlfriends in the Cabinet! I want Kiki to be secretary of state! She can fight!’ ”
SIGNS THE WORLD IS COMING TO AN END
An elderly German woman went to the hospital to get an operation on her leg. Guess what she got? A new a**hole! No, she didn’t pick up some jerk at the hospital. She literally went in for a leg operation and she was mistaken for another person that was there to get an operation on their a###. The doctor operated on her sphincter instead of her leg and now she is looking to sue the hospital. The surgical team has been suspended.
Another semi-sign the World is Coming to an End…
In Rome, a gangster has been allowed to stay at home under house arrest, because he is too fat. The dude clocked in at about 462 pounds. He did about six months and the authorities just let him go. They said they needed to help him move around, used the bathroom, dress and even undress. He couldn’t even squeeze through the bathroom door. Dude is like in a prison in his own bloated body. (Thanks, Sam)
JUVENILE’S DAUGHTER’S UNCLE GIVES PIECE OF HIS MIND!
Shout out to my dude, C. Boogie for sending me this. This dude is in jail, but he is really making some things rather clear. Check it.
To whom it may concern,
I’m praying this information reach the right person to expose the truth about how Juvenile has used his deceased innocent daughter he ignored. My name is Dwayne Deleston and I’m the brother of Juvenile’s deceased baby mother Joy Deleston. It’s disturbing to know Juvenile never had a relationship with his deceased daughter but accepts the sympathy like he was a good daddy to the child.
It’s not fair to the people who care. Juvenile and his family are receiving all the condolences like they cared about my sister and her kids. Juvenile didn’t have a father and daughter relationship with my niece. My sister tried for years to communicate with Juvenile and his family concerning Jelani since Jelani’s date of birth to Jelani’s unexpected date of death but Juvenile and his mother ignored his child.
Several days before the tragedy Juvenile told my sister, “he did not want nothing to do with her nor Jelani so stop sending pictures to his mother’s house because his wife didn’t know about Jelani and he is making arrangements to pay the owed excessive child support.” Jelani was before Juvenile’s marriage so his wife should have accepted her.
That message Juvenile sent to his child before her death was heart-breaking to her and my family, and our Lord is my witness. In the eyes of the Lord, Juvenile will weep what he sow because he did not have a reasonable reason to deny Jelani. His wife should ask him what else is he hiding from her.
For Juvenile to tell his mother to ignore one of his kids is cruel and unusual for a grandmother to do as she was told. I’m revealing a reality check. Juvenile never spoke to his daughter, he never was there for his daughter when she needed him the most nor did he come to her funeral without a reasonable reason not to.
Juvenile’s family was not at the funeral to show their sympathy. Juvenile nor someone from his family sent flowers nor a card nor called my mother to give their condolences.
Juvenile saying, “he’s shocked and devastated” after hearing about my sister an her daughters death is hard to believe. Juvenile did a show hours after his daughter’s funeral in Augusta, G.A. The final moment his daughter was on earth he did not witness because he did not care about her. Juvenile said, “he is a star and he did not want the attention on him at the funeral. “I’m incarcerated and I made it to the funeral, thanks to the understanding Warden and staff who participated in making sure I was present at the funeral.
Three innocent people was killed. These killings got my family puzzled but all we have to do is continue to have faith in our Lord. There’s a reason for everything and God knows everybody’s heart. Juvenile needs to apologize to his deceased daughter Jelani and Jelani’s mother for wrongfully ignoring Jelani when she reached out to him.
Juvenile needs to realize what’s in his heart reflects on the outside. I greatly appreciate your condolences in light of my loved ones death. May God bless you.
This information is to inform you, you gave condolences to Juvenile and his family but they did not love his innocent daughter that was murdered.
Personally I feel Juvenile used everybody’s sympathy for his selfish means and its best for the people to know the truth. Juvenile ignored his innocent daughter without a reasonable excuse and I can not support someone like him.
Sincerely,
Dwayne

WHAT THE HECK! ANOTHER VIDEO OF OBAMA’S FORMER MINISTER!
This might be my new way of getting the “Word” since I haven’t been allowed in church in a while. LOL. This man isn’t what the media is making him out to be.
Here is some food for thought. The United States have lost about 4,000 soldiers in the war in Iraq. WOW, that sucks, right? God bless every soldier’s life. I’ve shown you respect in the past and I do now. Conversely, America’s military forces have killed roughly 80,000 to 100,000 Iraqi civilians, soldiers, kids…blah, blah, blah. Now, we want to talk about Barack’s preacher and him saying “Gotdamn America,” (not know the context either) but what do you think the Iraqi citizens are thinking right now? AND YOU let the war monger back in office to continue all that’s been done to date. Chew on that!
I’M GONE TIL DAWN, MUTHAF**KAZ!
