KEEPING IT REAL GOES WRONG
AllHipHop.com: A classic case of keeping it real going WRONG! Ok, first of all, they started a new MySpace devoted to AllHipHop Week! Sheesh! So, go there and be a friend to the week. Oh, don’t forget my Illseed Myspace page and the main AllHipHop Myspace page! That’s just too many pages. Also, these guy are having a red carpet event with Jermaine Dupri as the host of the event (click here for info).
I’m NOT invited to this event, which is going to have a crapload of
celebrities. They say I don’t know how to act! WTF? I will get them by
starting a rumor about one of these big names that’s appearing during
AllHipHop Week!
FIRST UP – LUDACRIS!
So, yeah…I got one. Ludacris is hosting the AllHipHop Rap Battle, “The
War.” Like Kool G Rap said, “Talk about a battle, but you ain’t yet
ready for WAR.” That’s real. Now, I heard that Ludacris has gone and
cut his hair off. If you follow his career as I do, you know that he
goes from braids to an afro to some other stuff. He’s hacked off the
‘do and he’s filming a video with Pharrell in the near future. This is
the single to his new CD, Release Therapy. We’ll see what he looks like
without his wild mane. Some of you battle rapper were sleeping on that
$5,000 grand prize for “The War.” Sheeesh, I tried to tell you! (Female
battle rappers, hit me up regardless! I’m really trying to get this NJ
chick Jas down…come on! What’s good, hon?)
DASH SPLITS WITH DIBELLA?
I don’t know if this is actual and factual, but rumor has it Dame Dash
and boxing promoter Lou DiBella have parted ways. If you recall, the
pair formed Dash/DiBella Promotions to help African American boxers get
a stronger shake in the way they were pushed. Dame was set to get
Jaidon Codrington his own shoe and any number of other opportunities.
Well, this is a rumor, but I just heard things didn’t go according to
plan and its over. From what I know, Dame is a licensed promoter in the
state of New York so he’s going to be in the mix. We’ll see.
ON KEYSHIA COLES RADIO SITUATION!
So, you might remember I spoke about how Keyshia Cole got banned from
The Doug Banks morning show, right? DeDe McGuire did the interview and
things got a bit heated. Anyway, Jigsaw, one of AHH’s founders, went on
the show yesterday for a quick interview. He asked Mr. Banks and DeDe
about the matter. Doug replied, “No comment!” So, I don’t know what
that means, but I know that the lesson here is don’t mess with a
nationally syndicated radio show. Amen. Big shout out to Doug Banks,
DeDe and the whole morning show.

Luke, model Melyssa Ford, Civil Rights legend Roy Innis and Bryan

“Jigsaw” Creekmur! The Social Lounge!
The Rap Battle, hosted and sponsored by DTP, is a private affair. It’s
for $5,000, but to me it’s for the love of Hip-Hop. These people have
real skills.

MORE RUMORS – HALLE MIGHT BE PREG?
Halle Berry is rumored to be pregnant by model Gabriel Aubrey.
According to lore, the superstar said that she intended to have a child
by the time she turned 40. Well, she is now 39 and her hormones are
raging, I hear. Some pictures are floating around, but there is nothing
definitive to say that she’s preg or not. I’m available though, kind of
how Dave Chappell was when he bedded Oprah in his imagination.
THE LUPE REPLY!
Now, we had that rumor on Lupe and I play it fair. So, a source within
the situation hit me up and let me know that there is no beef between
Lupe and Reebok, the company that makes his shoe. As you recall, Lupe
did a show sponsored by Puma. Apparently, things got cleared up really
fast with that or Reebok ruffed it off.
