“Doc is troubled by this maybe more so than anybody else,” said Parsons. “If Mr. Sterling continues as owner, he does not want to continue as coach.”
The loss of Rivers could cause a “death spiral” for the team added the former Time Warner and Citigroup executive. Parsons also stated Donald Sterling continuing as the owner may lead to players, sponsors, and fans abandoning the L.A. sports team.
Rivers took over the Clippers coaching job in 2013. In his first season at the helm, he led the team to a franchise best 57 wins. Rivers previously coached the Boston Celtics to the NBA title in 2008.
Donald Sterling is fighting the sale of the Clippers to Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer. The 80-year-old businessman claims his wife did not have the authority to make the deal and she mislead him about mental tests that were used to determine his capability to run the organization.

Hip-Hop Rumors: T.I. Does A Lyrical Drive By On Floyd Mayweather
T.I. may have say some “God bless him stuff” so that people wouldn’t look at the beef with Floyd Mayweather as anything real. But, we’re getting reports that Tip is commenting on the beef in a way. Apparently, Tip has a few word for Mr. Money Mayweather. Earlier in the week, Tip played in Detroit and had no issues with the purported “No Fly Zone” like Rick Ross had. And when he played the city, he had the DJ play one songs FOUR TIMES IN A ROW. This song, said the following:
“You got an alligator mouth and a hummingbird ass/Your mouth writing checks that your ass can’t cash/145 and I’m out of your weight class/Want to survive, you better scramble like eggs and break fast/Cause I know how to handle your fake ass /I’m a ride on you and hide you in yesterday’s trash/Pull up in the Chevy’s spraying rounds through the glass/See you laying face down in the grass and I’ll laugh…”

Hip-Hop Rumors: Bone Thugs And Wu Tang?
Hmmmmmmm…this is something I never thought of in recent history, but semi, sorta make sense now that the cat is semi, sorta out of the bag. Seems like Krazyzie Bone has started a rumor that there may be some sort of of Wu Tang/Bone Thugs-N-Harmony album in the works. Seems like he posted something online about it and even gave a comment to VIBE magazine. Here is what he said.
“Man, we have never had the opportunity to connect and do something with Wu-Tang, but I’m good friends with RZA and Method. The other cats I haven’t got to hang out with as much. Met Raekwon a couple of times. He’s cool. Met Ghostface, but you know—every time I talk to RZA and Meth, we talk about doing something. It’s long overdue. It’s just getting everyone’s schedules together and actually making it happen. We’ve talked about it. Everybody is down. I have ideas, because it’s something I’ve been thinking about for a while. I’d like to start off with a Bone and Wu cypher—get everybody warmed up and just kill it. That’d be crazy.”
Clearly, Krayzie Bone is hype and on Instagram, he said: This Really Needs To Happen ASAP!!!!!”
Will it happen? That seems to be a tall order considering Wu Tang can’t even crank out their own group album. But, I will just stay positive and see.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Guess Who Is Quietly P##### At The Game!
The Game has moved into OG status as a crop of young rappers has moved into the mix of things. Well, not to be outdone, Game is here to say, “Y’all can’t f**k with me!” I am sure you heard his newest song “Bigger Than Me.” Well on the song, he goes in on new rappers, particularly the ones on the Freshman cover of XXL mag. You know those dues. But, on the song, he doesn’t name a lot of names as to who he is dissing. But, Frank Ocean pops up. He says, “A-yo Frank Ocean – go ‘head and f**k these f**k ni**as!” I am hearing that Frank Ocean, who is bi-sexual or gay, was not pleased to be included in the song is such a way. If he were a rapper, I bet he would come out dissing or something. But, a source told me Frank is just annoyed at it all and feels disrespected. I think Frankie should let it be known, if this is true facts! Bust a move!

Zendaya Coleman Explains Why She Was Not "Morally Okay" Playing Aaliyah In Biopic (VIDEO)
(AllHipHop News) Trying to be someone else is hard enough when it’s not one of the most revered artists in R&B of the past 20 years. In a recent interview, the actress originally set to play Aaliyah in the upcoming Lifetime biopic Aaliyah: Princess of R&B.
Last Friday (July 18th), Alexandra Shipp was announced as the new star of the Aaliyah biopic after Zendaya Coleman dropped out last month. According to Coleman’s three part Instagram message, she did not feel “morally okay moving forward with the production” for a number of reasons, one being disagreements with Aaliyah’s family over music rights and more:
The reason I chose not to do the Aaliyah movie had nothing to do with the haters or people telling me I couldn’t do it. I wasn’t talented enough or I wasn’t black enough. The main reasons were the production value wasn’t there. There were complications with the music rights and I felt like it wasn’t being handled delicately considering the situation and I tried my best to reach out to the family on my own.
Days after Coleman was announced as the lead actress in the Lifetime movie, Aaliyah’s uncle and former manager Barry Hankerson informed TMZ that Aaliyah’s family was displeased with Lifetime’s refusal to involve members of the family. Hankerson claimed that the family would block any usage of Aaliyah’s music in the film.
Check out Coleman’s explanation for leaving Aaliyah: Princes of R&B below:
Minister Louis Farrakhan Addresses Jay Electronica, Jay Z & The Nation of Islam at The Brooklyn Hip Hop Festival
(AllHipHop News) Minister Louis Farrakhan saw Jay Electronica and Jay Z perform at the 10th annual Brooklyn Hip Hop Festival and approves. In an extensive letter penned by Farrakhan for Final Call, the esteemed leader addressed criticism Jay Electronica received following his performance and more.
Farrakhan writes that he is “very proud of the Fruit of Islam (F.O.I.) and the Believers who stood with Brother Jay Electronica as he delivered what he delivered to the people” at the Brooklyn Hip Hop Festival. Farrakhan also admits that Jay Electronica was not “perfect in his representation” of the Islamic beliefs, but reasoned why it was acceptable:
I understand that some criticized Brother Jay Electronica’s use of profanity while wearing the uniform of the Fruit of Islam (F.O.I.) of The Nation of Islam. I humbly and respectfully ask: Has any of us who have accepted Islam and its required high degree of moral excellence and civilization ever said or done anything that is less than representative of what we believe? I am sure that all of us, if we are honest, would have to say that we have
At the end of Jay Z’s appearance during Jay Electronica’s set, the Roc Nation boss placed a 5 Percenter chain over Electronica’s head and proclaimed “peace to the gods.” According to Farrakhan, that is a moment even he would have enjoyed:
So, if someone offered me what Brother Jay Electronica was offered by Brother Jay Z, I too would accept it with the biggest smile on my face, for I too, as all of us in The Nation of Islam, are The Five Percent: Poor Righteous Teachers who are called to teach the 85 Percent, and free them from the chains of slavery and subservience as tools of the 10 Percent.
