This is actually a WTF and a fail.

Thomas Marrone, 55, was charged with driving drunk while riding a lawn mower down the street. The Pennsylvania man was driving the mower along the road at approximately 1:30 a.m. before being stopped y police.

Cops say Marrone wreaked of alcohol and had an open can of Coors Light beer in the mower’s storage compartment, reports AP.  Marrone said he was driving to his home, 6.4 miles away. He faces a preliminary hearing Tuesday on charges including driving under the influence and driving with a suspended license.

Hold up, his license was suspended too?

So, most likely he thought that riding a lawn mower was the way around his license situation instead of just calling a friend or a cab. Not only that but he’s getting charged for “driving” under the influence but the vehicle was a lawn mower! Shouldn’t there be some special charge for this? Luckily he was on the road during a time when there probably weren’t many cars out but still…imagine how slow that thing was going and what that could have done to traffic.

There’s way too much wrong with this case.

Austin, Texas-based rap crew League Of Extraordinary Gz are a rap group rooted in the tradition of groups like Public Enemy and Dead Prez, unafraid to tackle hot-button topics both political and socially minded, while still having fun. The group’s latest single, “Intercourse,” is an example of the latter as LOEGz teams with Dallas rapper Slim Gravy, of the group A.Dd+, and lets loose over hazy track. League Of Extraordinary Gz will release their new album, #LeagueShit, on October 15th. The album features Dead Prez, Bavu Blakes, and more.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Kim Kardashian Will Take North West on Tour With Kanye?

Word is that Kim Kardashian plans to take her new daughter, North,  along when Kanye West embarks on The Yeezus Tour. Life on the road can get tough, so Kim will only travel to select cities and fans shouldn’t get their hopes up about actually getting a glimpse of the infant.

Via RadarOnline:

“Nori will be back at the hotel. The new parents don’t want her to be exposed to a lot of people, and random strangers. Kim thinks she and the baby will remain with Kanye throughout the North American leg, but life on the road is going to get very old, very fast,” an insider told Radar.

It’s going to be hard keeping the baby on a schedule so, good luck. I bet it was Kanye’s idea since he probably doesn’t want to be away from his new baby girl too much.

The tour kicks off on October 19, in Seattle.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Is Kanye Having Corporate Woes?

Honestly, I didn’t get into the Yeezus album or anything, but I do know that Kanye has been rallying against all sorts of evil forces and sellouts and corporations and all kinds of stuff. He deemed those that succumb as the “new slaves.” Correct me if I’m wrong. Well, it seems like this may be biting Kanye in the butt, as new reports emerge that he’s having issues getting corporate sponsors. Looks like that Pusha T rant was the straw on the proverbial camel’s back.

New York’s Page Six speaks on it:

While Kanye West seeks partners in corporate America for his cultural projects, fallout from his epic rant at a listening party for rapper Pusha T isn’t helping him win over the big brands.

We hear West is seeking sponsors for his various creative endeavors, including his guerrilla-style music performances, art installations and fashion line. But West hosted a listening party last week for Pusha T’s new album, “My Name Is My Name,” at Industria Studios, and commandeered the microphone to embark on a expletive-filled rant against “corporations” and “sellouts.”

“I don’t give a [bleep] about none of these corporations, none of these [bleep] sellouts, this [bleeping] Pusha T,” he yelled.

Even worse West admitted he was “a little off that Goose right now,” supposedly referring to Grey Goose during his rant — even though the party was sponsored by Hennessey. Then the next day, West missed a Hennessey-sponsored birthday party for rapper Nas, which left Hennessey brass disappointed, sources told us.

We hear West’s actions aren’t helping him make friends in the corporate world. “Sponsors are scared away because he’s so unpredictable,” said one insider. A rep for West didn’t get back to us.

Wow. The corporations don’t get it. Yeezy didn’t mean YOUR CORPORATION!
