Although the relationship between members of New York’s finest and current mayor Bill de Blasio continues to deteriorate following the execution of two NYPD officers, the entire department is now under attack for turning their back on the mayor as he delivered a speech at the funeral of Officer Rafael Ramos on December 27.
Criticizing the actions of the NYPD the New York Times wrote, ““Mr. de Blasio isn’t going to say it, but somebody has to: With these acts of passive-aggressive contempt and self-pity, many New York police officers, led by their union, are squandering the department’s credibility, defacing its reputation, shredding its hard-earned respect.” The editorial continued, “They have taken the most grave and solemn of civic moments — a funeral of a fallen colleague — and hijacked it for their own petty look-at-us gesture. In doing so, they also turned their backs on Mr. Ramoss’ widow and her two young sons, and others in that grief-struck family.”
The stand-off stems from the recent Eric Garner verdict, as many officers have accused the mayor of siding with the flood of protesters who took to the streets to voice their growing frustration with perceived police misconduct.

Will Suge Knight Do A Death Row Movie With Black Kapital In 2015
This year cannot end like this for Drake! First Diddy…then Suge? Come on! Anyway, the word on the street is that Chris Brown has pulled his Blood ties into to the fray to get Drake shut all the way down and all the way up. This is crazy since he has denied having these ties to the Bloods in the past. Sure has not denied these things at all. But Suge us talking about getting revenge on his enemies out in these streets. Glad to be one of his friends! Anyway, I am hearing that Suge is looking to bring in a couple big names into his Black Kapital label. I’d think he was looking to secure Lil Wayne if I didn’t know better, but I know Baby’s paperwork is too crazy for all that. I don’t know any of the specific names though.
Could Suge be doing a Death Row movie?
That’s the other word.

The word on the street is that Dr. Dre is plotting a new album in 2015, but he will make his musical reintroduction in a most creative way. The word on the streets of Los Angeles is that Dre’s new album will correspond with the release of the new NWA movie: Straight Outta Compton! I’m even hearing that it may be Detox as the soundtrack to the album. That’s just the word. Nevertheless, I love what I am hearing. And then, Cube broke out the trailer in…Australia? What the…!? Anyway, it looks good. I just need them to show a bit more love to Ren and Yella!

While out touring in Austraila, Ice Cube unveiled the full trailer of N.W.A’s biopic, Straight Outta Compton, which was caught on video by a fan.
By the looks of the three-minute trailer, there’s no doubt that the film will vividly tell the compelling story of the gangsta rap pioneers. The cast includes Ice Cube’s son O’Shea Jackson Jr. who plays his father, Corey Hawkins as Dr. Dre, Jason Mitchell as Eazy-E, Neil Brown Jr. as DJ Yella and Aldis Hodge as MC Ren.
The F. Gary Gray-directed flick is set to hit theaters in August of 2015. Peep the trailer below.
Rush Limbaugh may feel that Idris Elba shouldn’t be the next James Bond but Kanye West does. British newspaper The Sun caught up with Ye and he showed Elba much support.
“James Bond is a role made for British actors and you won’t find a British actor who has the talent of Idris,” Yeezus said. “To be honest you won’t find many anywhere who have his talent…A black Bond would be visionary no doubt.”
Talks of Elba playing Bond began after a leaked email sent by Sony Pictures chairman Amy Pascal said “Idris should be the next Bond.” She had sent the email to Elizabeth Cantillon, who was the executive vice president of production for Columbia Pictures where the Bond flicks are produced.
Elba seems open to taking the role and recently took to Twitter to respond to his naysayers. If he did accept the role, he would be the first African American James Bond.
Nicki Minaj sure knows how to hit ’em where it hurts! Now that the video of her old acting days pop up, she apparently is not excited about it.

Peep the offending video.
Barbz are in danger!
Nicki was cute back then, but definitely has filled out a lot in the last few years of her lovely life.
Wiz Khalifa is working on a new project, but we’re not talking music– we’re talking chicken.
A source informed Dish Nation that the O.N.I.F.C wants to bring the Nando’s Chicken restaurant, which is based in South Africa, to Los Angeles.
“His love of Nando’s has led to him telling pals that he wants to bring wider knowledge to the chain in the US,” the source told Dish Nation. “There are just a handful of restaurants in Washington D.C., but there’s nothing in California — which is where Wiz is targeting.”
The Taylor Gang captain reportedly loves the chicken spot so much that he has a black card with the company that allows him to eat there for free year-round.
“Wiz loves their black card scheme that enables customers to enjoy free food at the beloved chain for a year,” the insider continued.”Wiz is obsessed with Nando’s. He makes it his first stop as soon as he steps foot into the UK.”
There are no details on the steps that have been taken yet.
The year 2015 marks LL Cool J’s 30th year in hip-hop. What better way to celebrate that than to release his 15th studio album?
For his next album G.O.A.T 2, which stands for the greatest all of time, he recruited hip-hop heavyweights Eminem and T.I and gushed about hopping in the studio with the two during an interview with RapUpTV.
“I think people are going to be pleasantly surprised when they hear me and Em’ on a record together,” said the Queens emcee. “The record I did with T.I is crazy. The one I did with Em is super hard…It’s some crazy records.”
He went on to say that to miss out on this album would be a “travesty for hip-hop.”
“I got a lot of young gunners on this album. People that are hungry and want to make the best music. It’s about the beats and the bars and the rhymes. It’s about being current and fresh and riveting, not a bunch of old, tired 95 nugget ring b#######. It’s newness.”
LL says that he has a track with Bronx spitter Fred Da Godson as well.
Peep the interview below.
After Kurupt was spotted leaving the home of Donald Sterling’s mistress V. Stiviano back in April, many wondered what the nature of their relationship was but the details about were scarce. During his recent sit down with Vlad TV, Kurupt Gotti described Stiviano as his homegirl and that he was seen leaving her house because he went to go check on her during the Sterling controversy.
“I ain’t know what was going on somebody called me and told me V was in trouble,” said the west coast spitter. “I had to go check on her. I’d do that with any of my friends.”
The Dogg Pound rep then gave his take on the Donald Sterling debacle that involved his friend Stiviano and surprisingly stood up for Sterling, saying he does not agree with him being forced to sell the Los Angeles Clippers.
“I don’t have a problem with this guy,” he said. “He’s a great guy. He’s a good man. They took a good man down.”
He went on to imply that it should have already been common knowledge that the 80-year-old was a racist.
“What the the f–k did everybody [think] he was before they heard it?”
Sterling was banned from the NBA after Stiviano released audio of him telling her not to associate with African Americans.
“Well then, if you don’t feel—don’t come to my games. Don’t bring black people, and don’t come,” Sterling told her.
