By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY) Updated Oct 24, 2013 at 6:35amCategory: Headlines

(AllHipHop News) High profile athletes have learned that with every positive headline often comes those stories that don’t paint them in the greatest light. Snoop Dogg’s son Cordell Broadus is only 16-years-old, but the high school junior is also one of the top college recruits in the country. So even the former co-star of the Snoop Dogg’s Father Hood reality show is subject to the watchful eye of the media.

TMZ got footage of Cordell involved in a brawl during a recent football game. According to the celebrity site, the 4-star wide receiver threw a punch during a game last Friday night and has been suspended one game by the California Interscholastic Federation.

It was recently reported that Broadus was offered a scholarship to play at Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish are one of several Division 1-A schools interested in adding him to their roster in 2015.

KNOCKOUT NATION: Who Should Money Mayweather Fight Next?

By: Chuck Creekmur (@ChuckCreekmur) Updated Oct 23, 2013 at 11:48pmCategory: Headlines

At this point, you would have to had been living under a rock for the past 6 years or so to not know that Floyd Mayweather Jr. is the ‘meal ticket’ when it comes to boxing spectacles. His last two fights alone generated well over 100+ million in revenue for himself if you tally up his pre-fight guarantees along with the back end money he’s expected to make off PPV sales. When boxers get into the ring with ‘Money”, well, that is exactly what they’re expect to earn in return; most of the time, this is when boxers earn their biggest career paydays. With that said, which boxer (or victim) is most qualified to earn their highest grossing payday to date against Floyd next spring? I compiled a list of potential candidates that will perhaps be in the running for the ”Money May” sweepstakes. I begin first with:

Danny Garcia (27-0, 16KOs)

Philadelphia’s undefeated WBC/WBA junior welterweight champ, Danny Garcia. All this guy does is defeat who the mass majority aren’t even expecting him to beat. This includes: Eric Morales (fight #1), Amir Khan, Lucas Matthysse, and the list goes on. While I believe this young lion would be in way over his head skill wise against Floyd, I do believe that he deserves at least a good payout against Mayweather, he’s paid his dues. If Canelo could get one this early in his career, then why not Danny?

Amir Khan (28-3, 19 KOs)

This one picked up a little steam right after Mayweather’s defeat over Cannel Alvarez. Rumors circulated that Khan decided to cancel his negotiations against IBF welterweight champion Devon Alexander for a Dec, 7th bout. Instead, it was cited that he wanted to postpone any activity and enter into the “Mayweather Sweepstakes”. Does he deserve this shot? NO, but this is a matter of economics. To quote one of my favorite movies, “Training Day”, Denzel was quoted as saying “It’s not what you know, it’s what you can prove”; I’d like to revise that a little bit in this case by saying “It’s not what you deserve, it’s what you can provide or offer”. Amir has a very large UK fan-base which could in the end make this a very enticing selection for Floyd come May, 3rd.

Daily Word: Never Stop Dreaming!!

By: Ash Cash (@IamAshCash) Updated Oct 23, 2013 at 7:58pmCategory: Lifestyle

Happy Wins-Day my conquerors of impossibilities! Welcome to the day that we realize that those who dream by day are more alive than those who only dream at night! Today’s Daily Word is dedicated to constantly dreaming! T.E. Lawrence once said “Everyone dreams: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake up in the day to find it was vanity, but the dreamers of the day are dangerous people, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible.” Make sure while on your road to success you never stop dreaming! The only way to get what you never gotten is to do what you’ve never done but in order to know what needs to be done you need to always visualize your goal in your minds eye! Stop living what everyone calls reality! Reality is a trap and will keep your running without going anywhere like a hamster on a wheel! Have the courage to stand up for your dreams and do everything in your power to make them come true! As the cheesy saying goes… It you can believe it then you can see it! Believe it! Then See it!!! NOTHING CAN STOP YOU BUT YOU!!

Epic Fail of the Day: Kat Stacks Admits to More Publicity Stunts, Gets Worldstar Logo Tatted on Her Butt

By: Friday Foster Updated Oct 23, 2013 at 6:55pmCategory: Rumors

Y’all still messing with Kat Stacks…sigh. Anyway, since she has been vocal on twitter about working with Q, founder of Worldstar Hip-Hop, to build her brand (or whatever) since getting out of the bing but then things went south. Kat Stacks started doing interviews and tweeting that she and Q were beefing and that she was no longer working with him because he’s basically a pimp who takes advantage of young attention w#####.

That didn’t last long. In typical Kat Stacks fashion she’s now claiming that everything she said was for publicity and because she was mad at Q. And…she got the Q’s name plus the Worldstar logo tatted on her butt to show just how contrite she is. Check it:

Fails all around. It’s sad that she’s so gullible and sad that people are probably still taking advantage of her. Smh.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Joseline Hernandez Compares Herself to Olivia Pope

By: Friday Foster Updated Oct 23, 2013 at 3:12pmCategory: Rumors

The cult of delusion is real when it comes to reality TV stars but the following comparison actually does have some parallels–not many but enough. Love & Hip-Hop Atlanta’s Joseline Hernandez took to Instagram to compare herself to Scandal’s Olivia Pope in an attempt to shade Mimi Faust. Peep game:

For those who are scratching their heads, Joseline and Mimi were caught up in a love triangle with Stevie J, who wanted to be with both of them. It all played out on camera as Mimi attempted to put up with Stevie because they have a daughter together but eventually got tired of the drama and left him alone.

Joseline was initially the side chick but now she’s actually the wife so I’m not sure why she’s holding on the side chick comparison. Furthermore, why is she so thirsty about low key antagonizing Mimi anyway?

Hip-Hip Rumors: Check Out Diddy’s Next Historic Goal!

By: Chuck Creekmur (@ChuckCreekmur) Updated Oct 23, 2013 at 2:26pmCategory: Headlines

Looks like Diddy is back with a vengeance. From a money point of view, he and Jay are at the top of the food chain with Dr. Dre. But, Jay and Diddy are more hustlers than the good doc, I think. So, Jay owned some of the Nets and eventually sold it. So, what is Diddy ready to do? Looks like Diddy wants to be the first African American to own a majority stake in an NFL team.

The Bad Boy mogul told Bloomberg TV his reasoning.

“I love sports, but I’m more of a owner type of guy, so I have aspirations to become — which it will happen — I will become the first African-American majority owner. Not having a small stake but actually owning an NFL team. I think it’s time for that. A majority of players that are in the NFL are African-American, but there are no African-American owners. So that’s one of my dreams. When I get the calls, ‘Well, we need to do Bad Boy Sports,’ I’m like, ‘No, that’s not my lane,'” Diddy said. “I stay in my lane. This is the lane that I want to do. And I’m just me; I do my own thing.”

Interesting and I think he can do it. He just launched Revolt TV. I’m wondering what the financial backing on that is like. I don’t see him coming out of pocket from his estimated $580 million he’s worth.

Boy Sues NYPD For Arresting Him For Trying To Dress Like Juelz Santana

By: Keith Nelson Jr (@JusAire) Updated Oct 23, 2013 at 2:16pmCategory: Headlines

(AllHipHop News) “Swag” is very costly, especially when you factor in racial perceptions of wealth, stop-and-frisk mentalities and Juelz Santana. According to The New York Daily News cover story, 19 year old African American teen Trayon Christian was arrested by NYPD police officers after purchasing a $350 Ferragamo belt from Barney’s.

On the afternoon of the incident (April 29th), Christian told The New York Daily News that his paycheck from his work-study job at his school the New York City College of Technology had been deposited into his account. Christian later purchased the belt with his debit card with no complications.

Christian maintains that after purchasing the belt, police stopped the young man claiming that someone at Barney called the officers to report the debit card. Without much evidence other than alleged Barney’s accusations, the police officers arrested Christian and took him to the 19th Precinct, but not before the officers had their own interrogation:

The detectives were asking me, ‘How could you afford a belt like this? Where did you get this money from?’

According to the article, Christian had his eyes on the expensive belt for a while after seeing it on numerous celebrities, including one of his favorites, Juelz Santana.

Christian did not waste time with giving Barneys a taste of his mind:

I brought the belt back to Barneys a few days later and returned it. I got my money back, I’m not shopping there again. It’s cruel. It’s racist.

The NYPD has already denied one of Trayon’s claims, that he was detained for two hours. NYPD spokeswoman Kim Royster claimed “Mr. Christian was held in police custody for approximately 42 minutes and as soon as we determined that the card was authentic, he was immediately released.”

Christian is suing the NYPD and Barneys for unspecified damages.

WTF News: 14-Year-Old Accused of Killing His Math Teacher

By: Friday Foster Updated Oct 23, 2013 at 2:08pmCategory: Rumors

Once again I ask, what the hell is going on with Gen Y?

A Massachusetts high school student was accused of killing his math teacher, whose body was found in the woods behind the school. The body of Colleen Ritzer, 24, of Andover, Mass. was found in a wooded area near Danvers High School early Wednesday, and the boy will be arraigned on a murder charge, according to authorities.

Via Huffington Post:

Police started investigating after Ritzer was reported missing late Tuesday night because she had not returned home from work and was not answering her cellphone. Investigators found blood in a second-floor school bathroom and soon located the victim, he said. He did not say how Ritzer died.

“She was a very, very respected, loved teacher,” Blodgett said, calling the killing a “terrible tragedy.”

The boy also was reported missing Tuesday after not coming home from school. He was spotted walking along a road in neighboring Topsfield at about 12:30 a.m. Wednesday.

His name was not made public because of his age. He faces arraignment Wednesday in juvenile court, where proceedings are closed to the public.

Ritzer had a Twitter account where she gave homework assignments, encouraged students and described herself as a “math teacher often too excited about the topics I’m teaching.”

There is no reason to believe anyone else was involved and there is no public safety danger, Blodgett said.

Ritzer is the second teacher allegedly killed by a student in the U.S. this week. A Nevada middle school teacher was allegedly shot by a 12-year-old student on Monday.

Hip-Hip Rumors: 2 Chainz Sex Tape?

By: Chuck Creekmur (@ChuckCreekmur) Updated Oct 23, 2013 at 1:53pmCategory: Headlines

Hopefully, this dude was only kidding, but 2 Chainz claims he plans to put out a sex tape one day. In an interview with Playboy, he said that it may be contingent on the amount of money he has. But, I don’t believe this is going to work the same way it worked for Kim Kardashian.

“I want to put out a sex tape in the next five to 10 years and reap all the benefits in case I spend my hard-earned rap money doing boneheaded activities.”

And guess who he would like to be his co-star?

(AllHipHop News) Ja Rule is turning the old adage “making something out of nothing” into an instructional manual on how to cook hearty meals with limited resources. Thanks the limited resource offered to Ja Rule while in prison, the Murda Inc rapper announced that he is writing a cookbook based on the

Ja announced the as-of-yet untitled cookbook on Geoffrey Zakarian’s SiriusXM show, “Food Talk” and explained how the recipes will be mostly microwave-based.

Speaking with TMZ, Rule also spoke on the food in prison and his creative ways of making it bearable which ultimately led to him creating this cookbook:

[The food inside] is not too good but you get packages and stuff like that. You can eat pretty good. You can eat decent enough. I ate everything. In jail, they’re pretty crafty. We made lasagna, we made cheesecakes, we had lots of things. I really didn’t eat prison food.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Kanye West’s Proposal Coming to Kardashian TV Soon

By: Friday Foster Updated Oct 23, 2013 at 1:05pmCategory: Rumors

Kanye West went all out for his proposal to Kim Kardashian because he is over-the-top but it might also be because cameras were rolling for Keeping up With the Kardashians. Kanye hasn’t been on the show much because he isn’t a fan of putting his personal life out there and Kim claims she won’t be on the show as much next season (yeah right) but this engagement was probably one instance where we will see the whole event unfold on E!.

TMZ caught up with a member of the orchestra from that night, who says there were multiple cameras rolling for the event. Kanye is said to have final approval on whether it gets to air on the show or not but that Kris Jenner hand is strong. We’ll probably be seeing it plus extra footage next season.
