Recently Allhiphop.com sat down with Atlanta r#### Slick Pulla to talk to him about his latest release “4th Ward Day II”. During the conversation Slick discuss his thoughts about Jeezy and other crew members being arrested during the “Under The Influence Tour”.
“It was basically profiling. We were the only motherf*&kers that fit the bill of some gangstas. So you know it was only right for them to come and harass us. “Those are the corporate gangsters so let’s get them.”
Furthermore, Slick shared his thoughts about the Michael Brown situation in Fergurson.
“I feel the same way I felt with Trayvon, the same way I felt with Oscar, It’s time to start making it where we are a self sufficient unit as a culture and as a team. I’m not saying go and ride and do something where you will get killed the first day… But I feel like if you exchange currency amongst your brothers and you educate the youth then we can make some progress.”

A Sierra Leone surgeon that was flown to Nebraska to be treated for Ebola died yesterday (Nov.17), Associated Press reports.
When Dr. Martin Salia began showing symptoms, he was tested for Ebola and his results came back negative, which was incorrect. It took three days for another test, which correctly diagnosed him on Nov. 10th, and then another five days for him to be flown to the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha for treatment last Saturday (Nov. 15). By the time Salia reached the U.S. his kidneys had shut down, which led to breathing difficulties.
“At this point, we can’t say for certain whether it was this misdiagnosis or not that led to his death,” Deputy Information Minister Theo Nicol said in a statement to the AP.
During treatment, Salia was placed on kidney dialysis, a ventilator, received a plasma transfusion from an Ebola survivor and was given several medications, including an experimental Ebola drug called ZMapp.
The 44-year-old was a Maryland native but after graduating from the Pan African Academy of Christian Surgeons training program in 2008, he decided to stay in Sierra Leone to continue his practicing. At the time of his diagnosis, he was working at the Kissy United Methodist Hospital in the Sierra Leone.
Salia was the 10th patient to receive care for the virus on American soil.

Well people, get ready for your last dosage of Erica Mena drama, because after her marriage with Bow Wow, she will no longer grace your television screens.
In an exclusive interview with Vibe, Mena revealed that she felt it was time to bow out gracefully and tend to the needs of her man.
“No. It’s time to be a wife. It’s time to be the woman my man needs. My man don’t need a girl that’s on TV, my man needs a girl by his side. That’s really what it’s about right now for me. It’s kind of bittersweet, this whole process, especially filming this last season. Even though there’s still the Erica Mena crazy stuff going on, this really is the best season ever for me… I’ve had a good run. I’m bowing out gracefully, on my own terms. Plants need to be repotted every once in a while, and I need to repot myself. Love & Hip-Hop has opened doors for me, it’s even brought me to this position where I was actually able to host 106, and get to that level with Shad. I think it’s done everything it was supposed to do for me. Now it’s time to let another Erica Mena in the door.”
At least we’ll get one more season of foolery entertainment from Mena and find out what the hell happened with Cyn…
Having a rap career may land a San Diego man in prison.
A rapper known as Tiny Doo has reportedly been hit with gang conspiracy charges and faces attempted murder charges along with 14 other gang members for involvement in nine local shootings that happened last year. Doo, however, was not involved in any of the shootings because he has been focusing on his rap career. His album, No Safety, was released back in February for free on Soundcloud.
Tiny, born Brandon Duncan, is in trouble because in 2000, a California law was put into effect that states gang members can be prosecuted if they benefit from the crimes of other gang members. Duncan is believed to have benefited from his fellow gang members’ activities because it helped them gain street credibility, which allegedly boosted Duncan’s record sales. Duncan, who has worked with Lil’ Wayne, does not have a criminal record.
“It’s shocking. He has no criminal record. Nothing in his lyrics say go out and commit a crime. Nothing in his lyrics reference these shootings, yet they are holding him liable for conspiracy. There are huge constitutional issues,” said Brian Watkins, Duncan’s attorney.
Court has resumed this week and a decision has not been made in the case.

NFL player Adrian Peterson has been suspended from the NFL for the rest of the 2014-2015 season without pay, NBC Sports reports. The Minnesota Vikings running back violated the league’s personal conduct policy when he faced child abuse charges back in September.
In a letter, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said that Peterson’s reinstatement in the league depends on his progress in counseling.
“The timing of your potential reinstatement will be based on the results of the counseling and treatment program set forth in this decision. Under this two-step approach, the precise length of the suspension will depend on your actions. We are prepared to put in place a program that can help you to succeed, but no program can succeed without your genuine and continuing engagement. You must commit yourself to your counseling and rehabilitative effort, properly care for your children, and have no further violations of law or league policy.”
Goodell also condemned Peterson for using a switch on his child and for his behavior during this situation.
First, the injury was inflicted on a child who was only four years old. The difference in size and strength between you and the child is significant, and your actions clearly caused physical injury to the child. While an adult may have a number of options when confronted with abuse – to flee, to fight back, or to seek help from law enforcement – none of those options is realistically available to a four-year old child.
Second, the repetitive use of a switch in this instance is the functional equivalent of a weapon, particularly in the hands of someone with the strength of an accomplished professional athlete.
“Third, you have shown no meaningful remorse for your conduct. When indicted, you acknowledged what you did but said that you would not ‘eliminate whooping my kids’ and defended your conduct in numerous published text messages to the child’s mother. You also said that you felt ‘very confident with my actions because I know my intent.’ These comments raise the serious concern that you do not fully appreciate the seriousness of your conduct, or even worse, that you may feel free to engage in similar conduct in the future.”
Peterson has three days to appeal this decision. He will not be considered for reinstatement until after April 15th, 2015.

(AllHipHop News) After Nicki Minaj tweeted that she would never condone Nazi imagery in her art, the director of the Young Money rapper’s “Only” lyric video, Jeff M. Osborne, stated he did purposely include references to Adolf Hitler’s Third R#### regime in Nicki’s clip. Osborne was a guest on Alex Jones’ radio program recently to speak about the criticism surrounding the “Only” video.
“I wasn’t expecting this type of reaction, because this type of imagery is all over the place,” said Osborne. “I don’t know what it specifically was, whether it was too straight forward. I was getting hate mail, tweets. Just because someone does that I’m not going to back down in what I believe in. Also, I’m not anti-Semitic.”
Osborne added that the point of the video was to show that totalitarianism still exists today. He also placed blame on the media for creating the controversy surrounding the visuals.
“You can tell that media has just become very fast, lacks integrity, and just really jumping on something to cause a stir rather than tell the truth,” stated the director. He later added, “I think the media is part of the problem, because they just take something and try to spin it to cause backlash and basically separate people and cause misunderstanding.”
Osborne revealed that he never actually spoke face-to-face with Nicki Minaj about the video’s theme. According to the visual artist, he was sent information about the concept of the video, and he added his artistic interpretation to it. Osborne suggested that Nicki’s team may not have understood the full message he was trying to convey with the various images displayed in the video.
(AllHipHop News) Jaden and Willow Smith were born into entertainment royalty. As the offspring of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith, the two teenagers have had unimaginable access to the tools of Hollywood, and they have used that connection as the foundation for their own blossoming careers in music and acting.
Willow recently dropped her EP 3, andearlier this year she appeared on her older brother’s track “Melancholy.” Jaden released his new project CTV2 (Cool Tapes Vol. 2) via the Jaden Experience app overnight which includes new music with Willow and exclusive artwork. The 16-year-old performer was a featured artist on Childish Gambino’s recent Kauai EP as well.
The Smith kids have also become known for their interesting Twitter quotes that have led people to call them everything from child geniuses to absurd twits. The criticism has not stopped the talented pair from sharing their thoughts with the world.
Willow and Jaden expounded on their personal philosophies in a new interview with the New York Times. During the discussion, the Smiths talked about their musical projects, the definition of time, their fashion sense, and school-based education.
Read some of the quotes from Jaden and Willow’s NYT interview and watch video of the siblings performing together below.
On themes in their work:
Jaden: The [song] “P.C.H.” being one of them; the melancholiness of the ocean; the melancholiness of everything else.
Willow: And the feeling of being like, this is a fragment of a holographic reality that a higher consciousness made.
Jaden: [bursts into laughter] As soon as me and Willow started releasing music, that’s one thing that the whole world took away is, okay, they unlocked another step of honesty. If these guys can be honest about everything, then we can be more honest.
On their experience of time:
Willow: I mean, time for me, I can make it go slow or fast, however I please, and that’s how I know it doesn’t exist.
Jaden: It’s proven that how time moves for you depends on where you are in the universe. It’s relative to beings and other places. But on the level of being here on earth, if you are aware in a moment, one second can last a year. And if you are unaware, your whole childhood, your whole life can pass by in six seconds. But it’s also such a thing that you can get lost in.
On fashion:
Jaden: Willow just dropped a song (“Cares”), let me quote the lyrics: “I do not care what people say.” We both don’t really care. I like to wear things that I make, but I throw it on as though I was throwing on anything. It looks cool, sometimes.
Willow: I like to go to places with my high-fashion things where there are a lot of cameras. So I can just go there and be like, “Yep, yep, I’m looking so sick.” But in my regular life, I put on clothes that I can climb trees in.
On education:
Willow: Yes, basically, but the crazy thing is it doesn’t have to be like that.
Jaden: Here’s the deal: School is not authentic because it ends. It’s not true, it’s not real. Our learning will never end. The school that we go to every single morning, we will continue to go to.
Willow: Forever, ‘til the day that we’re in our bed.
Jaden: Kids who go to normal school are so teenagery, so angsty.
Willow: They never want to do anything, they’re so tired.
Jaden: You never learn anything in school. Think about how many car accidents happen every day. Driver’s ed? What’s up? I still haven’t been to driver’s ed because if everybody I know has been in an accident, I can’t see how driver’s ed is really helping them out.
Willow:I went to school for one year. It was the best experience but the worst experience. The best experience because I was, like, “Oh, now I know why kids are so depressed.” But it was the worst experience because I was depressed.
(AllHipHop News) NBA star Dwight Howard is facing a criminal investigation into allegations the Houston Rockets center abused his six-year-old son. TMZ reports that Georgia’s Cobb County Police Department has opened a case in the matter after Howard was cleared of any wrongdoing by the Department of Children and Families (DCF) in Florida.
A law enforcement source told the website that several interviews have taken place and Cobb County investigators received information from the DCF. Howard supposedly has admitted he hit his son with a belt, but DCF ruled there was not enough evidence of child abuse. The belt whipping apparently took place in the state of Georgia, not Florida.
Howard’s legal team suggests the entire ordeal is being orchestrated by the mother of his child Royce Reed. His attorney says the allegations are “baseless” and “have no merit.”
Reed and Howard have been going through a very public custody battle over their son. Howard also won a defamation lawsuit over the former Basketball Wives star. Reed lost a judgement that concluded she violated a court order barring her from speaking about Howard in the media. She addressed the current investigation on Instagram earlier this week.

The Howard abuse allegations come on the heels of NFL running back Adrian Peterson pleading no contest in his highly publicized child abuse case.
