Kanye West Spazzes on Paparazzi For Harassing Him Outside of His Home At 4 A.M.
So go and grab the reporters/So I can smash their recorders/See they confuse this with some bullsh*t, like the New World Order-Kanye West
(AllHipHop News) There’s investigative journalism, then there’s paparazzi and then there is illegal trespassing. Earlier this morning (September 27th) Kanye West had a furious verbal confrontation with a few paparazzi photographers who were outside of his house at 4 A.M.
The photographers attempted to ask Kanye about last night’s exchange of words with Jimmy Kimmel through social media, but Kanye shut all questioning down quickly:
Stop asking me questions. You outside of my house at 4 A.M. talking about how’s it going? It’s not going good. Y’all trying to make money off of it.
While there was no physical altercation, Kanye did lunge at one of the photographers when attempted to take pictures of a woman who was exiting Kanye’s car, supposedly Kim Kardashian.
According to TMZ, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian were en route to catch a flight to Paris. Kanye has recently been informed by his lawyers to avoid paparazzi by not flying through LAX.
Check out the full video of Kanye’s latest confrontation with the paparazzi at TMZ.
WTF News: Flesh-Rotting Drug Surfaces in Arizona
A homemade drug that causes severe damage to the flesh has shown up in Arizona. Newsy reports that the drug, called Krokodil, had previously surfaced in Russia and it’s a disfiguring and possibly lethal mixture of codeine and hydrocarbons like oil, paint thinner, gasoline or alcohol.
Via Huffington Post:
According to doctors at Banner Poison Control Center, two cases of the drug have been reported in the state in the past week.
“As far as I know, these are the first cases in the United States that are reported… We’re extremely frightened,” Dr. Frank LoVecchio, the co-medical director at the center, told KLTV.
Users filter and boil the drug before injecting it. Although LoVecchio said users believe the process removes the impurities, they are wrong.
Once injected, the drug causes damage to blood vessels and tissue that cause flesh to rot from the inside out. The horrific sores that some users develop resemble crocodile skin, which lends the street drug its name. The average life expectancy of a krokodil user is about three years, according to KSAZ.
The main attraction is that it costs a lot less than heroin but produces a similar high. Yet you might want to google it to see what it does. The picture you see here is child’s play.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Jimmy Kimmel Responds to Kanye's Twitter Rants, Takes Shot at Kim

Miley Cyrus: Me And Mike Will Made It Know Racists Don't Like Our Music Relationship
(AllHipHop News) Miley Cyrus has been twerking, tongue wagging and channeling her inner “rachet” since the summer and coincidentally began working with Mike WIll Made It around the same time. According to the eccectric pop star, her and her new collaborator have discussed and believe racism is imbued in the perception of their working relationships.
Talking with Rolling Stone, Miley says there is a racially-driven double standard when describing her working with the Atlanta producer:
Me and [producer] Mike WiLL were talking about it. He said, “For me, my biggest achievement has been working with a white girl—but for a white girl to work and associate with black producers, you’re being ratchet.” He’s like, “Why am I on the come-up if I work with you, but if you work with me, it’s like you’re trying to be hood?” It’s a double-standard. I didn’t really realize it, but people are still racist.
She also attributes a level of racism to the media outrage over her scandalous performance at this year’s MTV Video Music Awards which included “twerking” from her backup dance crew “L.A. Bakers”. :
If I had come out [at the VMAs] with all white-girl dancers, and done the f###### “Cha Cha Slide”— same outfit, same everything — it wouldn’t have been bad. But because of who I came out with, people got upset. Because they were girls from the club. They had thick a**es. They were twerking.

Pusha T Says Kendrick Lamar's "Control" Was Nothing New
(AllHipHop News) G.O.O.D. Music’s Pusha T is on the verge of dropping his debut solo album My Name Is My Name next month, but before his new project lands this fall the Virginia native spoke with The L.A. Leakers about one of the most talked about moments of the summer.
[ALSO READ: 10 Biggest Stories From “The Summer Of Hip Hop” 2013]
Pusha was one of the rappers Kendrick Lamar mentioned he wants to “murder” lyrical during his verse on Big Sean’s “Control.” Pusha says he did not take it as a diss and believes that should be the mentality of every emcee. He cites his own rhymes on “Exodus 23:1,” “New God Flow,” and “So Appalled” as examples of times where he embraced the competitive nature of Hip Hop.
Pusha’s interpretation of Kendrick’s verse is a little different from another target named in the song. Drake recently told Hot 97’s Angie Martinez that he did not feel like Kendrick was being real by calling out his peers and then still trying to be friendly with them afterwards.
In the interview Drake said:
It’s like you can’t just say that and then see me and be like “Yeah man what’s up” pretending like nothing ever happened. To me that’s not the nature of battling, there’s passion behind it there’s anger behind it… I wouldn’t expect you to like throw all the relationships out the door for the sake of being like the talk of the internet for 10 days… I don’t know if it was worth it you know, because there’s a lot of people that were mentioned that I feel like can’t really go back and f**k with that guy after that.
Pusha T’s My Name Is My Name is scheduled for release on October 8th.
