Please help save Cookie Monster from the evil bastards in Congress

Today we join with our friends at Afropop and ask you to help save the funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting- PBS.
It seems that congress would rather fund wars than news. We think that's just plain wrong. if they cut 2 Billion from the department of defense and gave it to public broadcasting, we'd see a much smarter start to our younger generation.
Childrens programming on PBS has been the staple that begins our educational diet for more than 40 years. we love Sesame Street and all the reading rainbows. we also love the nightly news and public interest programming. that's how we listen to Afropop. we think that if this nation is to be a smart and aware nation - we need to fund Public Broadcasting.

This is the only way we can be involved in the process of making our funding wishes clear to congress. The US Congress wants to consider the Corporation for Public Broadcasting a waste; instead of considering it's contribution to our nations educational and cultural heritage. It's time to sign on the dotted line to let congress know that if voice of america is funded - so too should be PBS.
This is a short clipping from our friends at Afropop on the funding issues.
BULLETIN: In Congress, some members are trying to cut all funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Stations large and small all across the country are funded in part by the CPB, so a radical cut in funding will endanger the viability of public radio.
Please take a minute to send a note to your Congressman or Congresswoman to make sure they do their best to keep one of America's landmark broadcast institutions alive and providing fair, intelligent and world-savvy news information.
For Your good dead today we reward you with this fabulous and festive video of one of the hottest new Congolese rappers to hit the music scene internationally.

ooooohhhhh yesssss babyyyyyy it's BALOJI



aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ain't nothing like a Congo Party - Shake It Baby Shake It Shake IIIIITTTTT!!! !



This is what we will loose if we loose PBS and Afropop.

Jimmy, Justin and the Real Roots of HipHop



Not everybody could do this but they did it. Big Up to Jimmy and Justin with The Roots,, cause they rocked the oldschool history of HipHop. I must admit it was nice hearing all those artists and those tunes again. Old School is Always Cool.



A Hip and A Hop and it Don't Stopppppp,

we're bringing your attention back to HipHop because BadGalsRadio.com has a brand new HipHop Show premiering with our own Mecca Amaru - Truth on a Platter.  Be sure to check it out over on BadGalsRadio premiering Monday 10/04/10.

Fallon, Timberlake's hip-hop clip a viral hit
October 4, 2010 - 11:57AM

Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake are the hottest duo in hip-hop — for the moment.

They performed a medley of rap hits on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon last week, and the clip is becoming a viral hit.

Fallon and Timberlake started off with Sugarhill Gang's classic Rapper's Delight and then performed jams from artists including the Beastie Boys, the Notorious B.I.G., Jay-Z and Eminem.

Fallon, 36, said he's surprised by the success of the skit.

"We never know what's going to viral or get picked up, and this one's beyond what we thought it would do," he said.

Though the clip looks all fun, he said, he took the time to get it right before taking the stage.

"You know I really needed to practice. You know I can't rap," said Fallon, who also performed songs by Missy Elliott, Tupac, Kanye West and Snoop Dogg. "I was in my apartment till two in the morning the night before doing (the) Soulja Boy (dance) and my wife was like, 'You're crazy!'"

Though Fallon needed to rehearse, he said, Timberlake was obviously a natural: "(He) knew all of his parts, all his rhythm was amazing, so much better than mine. Mine was so bad, my gosh, (I thought), 'I'm going to screw this up,'" Fallon said.

The performance was backed by the house band for the NBC show, the Grammy-winning hip-hop group The Roots. Fallon said that much of the success goes to the rap band and that the skit was a homage to today's generation.

Aaliyah - Remembering Our One in a Million Nine Years Later


So Young and Gone So Soon - Remembering

Aaliyah Haughton 01/16/1979 - 08/25/ 2001


WE Remember Aaliyah, the beautiful young singer from the D, who's star shot straight into the heavens. From the first time I heard her sing as a lil girl at Motown Studio B, I knew she was destined to become one of the great voices of my time. Her simple way of twisting her voice around a melody and making it her own.


She was truly One in a Million
Only Aaliyah.. she was an angel in every sense of the word.. here on earth. she left us in 2001 due to the stupidity of men who didn't think enough of the star to use proper protocols when her chartered jet took off; quite overloaded from the bahamas. Within moments everyone on the ground knew something was terribly wrong.

Then it happened.. the unthinkable.
Aaliyah Was Gone.. Snatched up in an instant

In a puff of smoke and flames, the young singer was snatched from our realm and propelled into her own premature superstardom. little did we know at that time just how much her voice would teach us. But now we are grateful, just to have had the chance to hear Lil Aaliyah singing her heart out that day. She will always remain one of our favorite young voices.






We saw 22 white doves and we knew You Were A Superstar Evermore, We Will Never Forget You Aaliyah,  You Are OUR Baby Girl..

Reminisce with us today - Trouble T-Roy we will never forget you

Trouble T-Roy, Heavy D, G-Wiz, Eddie F - image from xxlmag.com

Many of us have forgotten the legacy of Hip-Hop and the Founders. today we remember Trouble T-Roy Dixon of The Boys; Heavy D's Backup Group. you see twenty years ago in Cleveland, Trouble T Fell off a ramp to his death. it was unbelievable when I heard it. how could he just fall to his death that way if he was with his folks ?

well just like all youth, they were playing and boom he misstepped onto the edge of a ramp, which was in essence two stories high. why there was no encasement to protect against these types of accidents is still a mystery. but one fact remains - we lost a very talented man.

check out our favorite video on Remembering the Life of Trouble T. by C L Smooth and Pete Rock. We Reminisce,



Here's To You Trouble T - You'll always be with us in our hearts lil bro.

Why does this resemble a barbie corvette porn remake



When you're not interested in something you literally have to be drug to see it, in most cases. this is the case for me and this Nikki Minaj video with Sean Garrett. when I heard the line "We got tom toms over here bigger than a Monster".

What ?



The first reason we wanted to see this video, was to see this Pink Lambo that she has to pay to fix - 15 g's.

Yepper, she rented it to do a video, climbed in and Amber Rose and She rode off into the dessert. she apparently wasn't told that you don't drive a rented Lambo on rocks unless you pay for the repairs; and you return it ontime or pay overdue charges.  Anyway, you can see Amber pushin the Lambo at the 1:40 mark and Nikki siting there with her legs stickin out the window. like any of this is ever gonna happen in real life. (side-eye) for some reason this resembles a barbie corvette porn remake.

Remembering Guru - He Gave Us Real Understanding


Today We Lift Our Hands in Thanks for the Masterpiece of a Life

GURU..


Guru Featuring Baybe - Lifesaver

We will be doing a more complete post highlighting the wonderful work and genius that IS Guru.
He Gave Us Real Understanding.. all the way to the end.
Reality is the lesson of selflessness and Guru was exactly that.  working tirelessly even after being diagnosed with cancer. yet never revealing it until the end. that was how private he was. always putting us first.
Today we just want to reflect and gather as much as we can of his career. when we've put together our true tribute we'll present it fittingly. Take a moment and remember your favorite Guru moment..

Then Smile

Bless Up Guru and Live Forever Amongst the Stars My Brother. we never met but I loved you just the same. the sadness that fulls us today is a reflection of how much we give to others who we don't know but who reached out for us. The Lessons of Supreme Living can all be found in his life.

This is a Plea For Help - I hope someone see's it



Why does it appear that our friend Kanye is not himself these days?

we noticed it's become a pattern. Recently he seems to be getting a little worse, with the addition of Hen Hen and Amber Rose to the mixx. all we can say is you tell us, does this look like a stable person to you ?



we compiled these videos from Youtube, with a quick search. there is so much out there about Yeezie's behaviour, that we wanted to focus on the time peroid where this seems to be escalating. if you pay attention, you will see the video of Him and His Mom. He Appears Close to Normal there.


Kanye and Him Mom - Dr. Donda West; on the release of her book chronicalling the life of Kanye West, and How She Raised Him.

It makes us wonder if he still has that book, and if he's even thought of it lately ? I'm sure his mom wouldn't like this latest action, according to what she wrote in her book on "Raising Kanye".

When She died; immediately the strange behaviour manifested

Grief is a powerful disabler. we are speaking from personal experience, and professional advice. when his mom died suddenly, he was on tour. when he arrived home; she was gone. he missed his last moments with her.  they had a very unique bond. you would see them arrive together to the early award shows. she walked the red carpet with him. sat with him at the first grammy awards. she was his rock, and that's what seems to be pushing him toward this type of acting out.

Kanye may not be ready to admit it, but take a look at the changes with us


Kanye and Alexis Pheifer

1. He Jumped from his tame designer fiance Alexis Pheifer, who stood by him through the car accident and early revelations of his sex addiction; to dating a former stripper and admitted try-sexual, Amber Rose.


Kanye and Amber Rose



watch closely and you'll see Amber Rose in this Luda Video - yeah,,


2. We remember when he was a college drop-out in his preppy marc jacobs posse', carrying a Murse.  To being kicked out of award shows globally. he went from being dressed in air yeezies and argyle, to drinking  straight from the Neck of the Hen-Hen dressed in BadBwoy Black Leather and Jeans, much more in style to his companion Amber Rose.

The strange behaviour seemed to start when his mom died. we saw it in the video when he was off the hook with the fan who he told to eat shit and die - On Stage. this was within months of his moms death.
wow..



Kanye, Mark Jacobs and fellow fashionistas attend an Event in Paris

3. Slowly in the media, He took on an oppositional attitude toward all other talented individuals; he felt were less than himself.  It was reported int he news that upon hearing of  the death of Michael Jackson recently Kanye declared himself "The New King of Pop".  that was certainly a huge danger sign.

wow.. he's a rapper, so what does he have to do with Pop ?


Kanye and Amber Rose attend Fashion Week 2008

we hope that those who are able to, Get Ye Some Professional Help Quick Fast and In a Hurry.
His "Acting Out"  in this fashion persuades us that he is not the genius, but a terribly troubled soul; who needs to again see the light, instead of the darkness which seems to be enveloping him now.

Kanye is in our Thoughts and Prayers, because we can't see anything good coming out of this. not anything good. publicity can work both ways and this so far hasn't been good. apologizing on Jay Leno and the Morning Show won't make up to the millions of fans who are disappointed. so much so that they decide to boycott his music. that kind of loss of credibility indicates a serious need for help.

Please Kanye, Get Help - No Joke Brothaman,

It's Saturday @ the Circus wtih Dennis in Drag, Kelis' Milkshake and Weezy (if we can wake his ass up)

This is another Saturday round up, and we are not short of clowns this episode.. we give you Gastly to Goddess.. You Make the Call - but remember This Is ALL NEWS, To Some of Us. LOL

DENNIS RODMAN ACCUSED OF STIFFING RESTAURANT BILL:

Den Den was off his meds apparently, and somebody needs to point him in the direction of the nearest Make Over Reality Show, QUICK. He Is The Biggest LOSER. any respectable drag queen would never been seen dead with that purse and dress. And to think he had the nerve to cause a stank on the Beach. He Needs His Ass Whooped Real Momma Style.

Plus, member of his crew allegedly assaulted manager when he asked for the money.

*Within days of his appearance on the season finale of “The Apprentice” and promise to enter rehab, Dennis Rodman got himself in trouble in Miami after sources claim he left a restaurant without paying the bill.
TMZ.com reported Sunday, “Rodman and some friends had dinner last night at the Gansevoort Hotel in Miami, and left without paying the $1,000 bill. When the manager tried stopping Rodman’s party, an altercation erupted and the GM got punched in the face — allegedly by a member of Rodman’s posse.”
According to the Web site, the fight spilled into the street and resulted in a rear view mirror being knocked off a $289,000 Lamborghini parked near the sidewalk.
Police confirm the Miami Beach PD responded to a call from the hotel right around the time the altercation took place. No word yet on whether the victim will press charges.
The restaurant agreed not to press charges if the bill was paid — and it was.

Label Rep Says Lil Wayne Album Pushed Back Again To July

One month after it was reported that Lil Wayne’s new album Rebirth was pushed back to June, XXLMag.com has learned that the project has been moved once again.
Reports came out today that the disc was moved, and a label rep has confirmed that the experimental album will now come out sometime in July. It is unclear if the several tracks that have leaked on the net will be included on the CD, like “Politics” with Gudda Gudda or “Spit In Your Face” with Cash Money artist Kevin Rudolf.

Yet according to Rolling Stone, the leaked song “Fix My Hat” will be on Rebirth.
In April it was reported that Universal wants to the release Weezy’s Young Money compilation on the same date as Rebirth, which is complicating the drop date. As of press time it is uncertain if that is still the case. – Elan Mancini

Nas Wants Judge To Deny Kelis Spousal Support In Divorce

It doesn’t look like Nas and Kelis are on good terms. After filing for divorce last month against her husband of three years, Kelis - who cannot work because she is pregnant with the Queens rapper’s son - is asking for Nas to pay for her lawyer fees in the case.

TMZ reports today (May 20) that not only does Nas not want to pay for his ex’s attorney, but he doesn’t want to fork over any money for spousal support.

Both Esco and the R&B singer are seeking custody of the child that Kelis is just weeks away from birthing. Rumor is that Kelis filed for the split because she believes Nas was cheating on her.
As of press time neither artist has offered any statements about the case. – Elan Mancini

Kelis lets the audience preview Her Milkshake
Kelis Baby Do You Have to let errybody get a taste of Yo Milkshake ? Damnn Girl cover that shit up.
*Documents filed in Los Angeles reveal that Nas, 35, has asked a court to deny his pregnant wife Kelis any spousal support in their divorce.

The 29-year-old “Milkshake” singer, whose first child with Nas is due in July, filed for divorce last month, according to reports. Both sides are seeking joint custody of the unborn child.
Although the couple went public with their marriage with a ceremony in 2005, the pair was secretly married at a courthouse in 2003, a source confirms.

SNOOP DOGG CLEARED OF STAGE ASSAULT:

Go Snoop, we knew that you’d win this one. Here’s a lil advice Big Homie - next time keep the fans off the stage while you and yo posse’ workin. it’s been known to get gully up there

Jury finds Snoop is not personally responsible for fan beatdown at 2005 concert.

*A civil jury on Friday cleared Snoop Dogg of civil assault and battery claims in the beating of a fan who stormed the concert stage during a 2005 concert near Seattle.

The jury, however, did find that Richard Monroe Jr. suffered serious injuries during the concert and awarded him $449,400 in damages to be paid by a record label, another performer and others involved in the concert, reports the Associated Press.

The damages awarded were substantially lower than the $22 million Monroe sought when he sued the rapper in 2006.

Jurors found that Snoop Dogg, whose real name is Calvin Broadus, doesn’t personally owe Monroe anything. The artist was not in court Friday for the verdict, but he attended part of the trial and testified, denying that he struck Monroe.

During two weeks of testimony, jurors were repeatedly shown a video of a melee that Monroe said left him unconscious, badly bruised and nearly naked. Monroe’s attorney, Brian E. Watkins, said jurors did believe his client’s contention that Snoop’s people were involved in a savage beating.

“We’re very pleased that the jury found that this incident was not something to be taken lightly,” Watkins said.
Responsibility for paying the judgment falls on Doggystyle Records, which Broadus founded; rapper Soopafly, whose real name is Priest Brooks; and other unnamed parties.


SWIZZ BEATZ WANTS DIVORCE COURT GAG:

Producer asks judge to seal the case; Mashonda’s lawyer calls move ‘curious.’

Swizz YOU A HOE, and Alicia - Well it’s obvious you have no judgement.. Go Get Yo Ass some Therapy you Homewrecker. Mashonda did nothing to you Alicia, so you will get this back, in the later-on babygirl, mark these words. What Goes Around, Comes Right Back to Yo Ass, in a lil while - always
(May 22, 2009)
*Now that he’s gone public about his romance with songstress Alicia Keys, rapper and producer Swizz Beatz wants the public barred from ongoing divorce proceedings with his wife, singer Mashonda, the New York Post’s Dareh Gregorian reports.

Beatz, whose real name is Kasseem Dean, has asked Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Deborah Kaplan to seal the proceedings and issue a gag order.

Mashonda’s lawyer, Bernard Clair, called the move “curious,” and noted that his client’s divorce suit and request for support for their son were “flying under the radar until Mr. Dean and Alicia Keys went public about their long-term affair and he released a song implying that he likes it when Alicia serves him breakfast naked.

“Now that Mr. Dean’s questionable conduct is being scrutinized, he suddenly wants a gag order and the media to be locked out?”

T.I. RELEASES ALFAMEGA FROM LABEL:

Rapper takes action after reports surface that he was a DEA informant.

Have Mercy, Tip you cleanin house. good move my man, good move. now if you can get that shit cleaned up before you get done with your bid, the rest will be gravy baby.
The rapper, who was sentenced to one year and a day behind bars on federal weapons charges last month, has dropped Alfamega from his Grand Hustle Records following a published report by SmokingGun.com earlier last week that claims he was an informant for the drug enforcement administration during a trial on a heroin trafficker.
“Even though all our artists and employees are asked by us to be honest and open about their past history, at no time did Alfa disclose to me or Grand Hustle what has now appeared in the media,” T.I., born Clifford Harris, said during an interview on Atlanta’s 107.9 radio station.
“He essentially deceived us by failing to fully disclose the truth about his past, and there is no place in our organization for dishonest and misleading behavior,” he continued. “As I have always said, you must take responsibility for your own actions. We at Grand Hustle can not support or condone the blaming of others for our own mistakes. I hope and pray to God, bless his savings plans, but I don’t foresee me or my company playing a role in his personal or professional business.”‘
T.I. pleaded guilty last March after he was arrested in 2007, attempting to buy unregistered machine guns and silencers.

RAYMONE BAIN SUES MIJAC OVER UNPAID FEES:

How the Hell is she suing anybody with her Shady Ass? she’s just mad she aint’ gettin none of that O2 money.

Singer’s former rep seeks $44 million, only ‘after numerous attempts to resolve matter amicably.’

*Raymone K. Bain, the famous former publicist for Michael Jackson who became widely known during the singer’s child molestation trial, has filed a lawsuit against the King of Pop for failing to pay her fee.
In the lawsuit, Bain is seeking $44 million from the entertainer. She claims to have overseen every aspect of Jackson’s life, including arranging his housing, paying his bills, running his companies and helping to save him from foreclosure, among other things.
But one has to wonder if Jackson’s supposed to be broke, why is she suing for that much money and how does she justify that figure? The Washington D.C.-based lawyer sent EUR the following statement regarding her lawsuit:
“It is with deep regret that I find myself at this place, having to file a lawsuit against my longtime employer, and someone whom I have greatly admired and respected, Michael Jackson.
“Mr. Jackson and I have had a long, productive and mutually beneficial business relationship.
“Unfortunately, Mr. Jackson has elected not to honor the financial obligations of our contractual relationship, despite my numerous attempts to amicably resolve this matter. I am sincerely disappointed in Mr. Jackson’s failure to honor his obligations.
“This lawsuit will result in some discussion about the relationship between Mr. Jackson and me. Hypothetical theories, accusations and rumors, if gauging from the past, will be many. However, all of these will be replaced in court with the truth.
“On a personal note, I would like to thank all of the individuals who have given so much of their time and effort to assist me throughout the Jackson years. I thank you for your support and prayers. To the Jackson fans who have written letters to me, thank you, and I wish you all the best.
“Despite the action I have been compelled to take for professional and business reasons, when looking back, I have no regrets. Michael Jackson, in my opinion, is the ‘King of Pop,’ and I wish him, and his family, only the best.”

SERENA WILLIAMS LOSES IN ROME: But her jewelry and accessories line wins big on HGN.

It Matters Not - This is the Queen of Tennis - and Y’all Betta recogize. this girl is a multimillionaire in the prime of her life. she’s gonna buy and sell all y’all tabloids by puttin her face on your cover. Pay Her Damn it. that’s all you can do, cause she can Do What It Do.

YOU Go Serena !

*Less than 24 hours after proclaiming she is the true No. 1-ranked women’s tennis player, world number two Serena Williams was knocked out the second round of Tuesday’s WTA Rome claycourt International by No. 20 Patty Schnyder 6-2, 2-6, 6-1.

According to AFP, “the game did not finish until 1 a.m. local time and there was a strange and subdued atmosphere, although Schnyder at least managed to lift herself enough to see off her poor opponent.”
Perhaps Williams was still distracted from the successful launch of her fashion, accessories and jewelry line on HSN and www.hsn.com, with 25,000 pieces selling out after just 3 hours of air time during HSN’s primetime debut (Thursday-Saturday morning) April 30 - May 2.
Serena Williams Signature Statement is a complete accessories collection including handbags, jewelry and apparel that ranges from $16.50 for the Signature Statement Rings of Bling Drop Earrings up to $99.95 for the Signature Statement Flowing Floral Reversible Maxi Dress.
During the launch, Serena modeled her collection, told anecdotes about the inspiration behind each piece and took calls from elated fans from around the country. One of the most popular pieces was the famous Lucky Ring Serena wears during each of her winning matches. Additionally, nearly every handbag and fashion jewelry piece was spoken for by the end of her last show on Saturday morning.
“I love to make a statement both on and off the court. Passion, drive and hard work have taken me down this and many other creative paths throughout my life,” said Williams. “As with tennis, it takes a lot of discipline and precision to make beautiful things come to life. This is a dream come true for me to share truly gorgeous things that I love with the world on HSN.”
Now is that enough for ya ?

Chris Brown’s lawyer: Rihanna’s photo poisoned the jury pool

Rihanna Chris Brown’s attorney, Mark Geragos filed a motion Wednesday in the Los Angeles Superior Court seeking access to internal LAPD records.

Geragos believes that the photo of a badly beaten Rihanna was illegally leaked to the media by an LAPD officer.

Geragos says the photograph was sold by someone at the LAPD. The shot was all over the Web, and on TV shows and still remains on the TMZ website.

‘’The purpose of the leak was necessarily for profit and to vilify Mr. Brown and poison the potential jury pool,” he told Us Weekly.

Needless to say, Brown’s lawyer feels this is cause for a dismissal of the case. Brown’s prelim hearing is on May 28th.

What do you think?

Can Chris Brown get a fair trial after that photo of a bruised and swollen Rihanna was released?

So Ladies and Men, why do you think this picture business is going on now, so close to the start of the Trial ? could it be more negative press to insure that the case is even more heated and that Chris gets the Book thrown at him ? we wonder - but one thing we know for sure, those pics of RhiRhi's face being leaked by the LAPD, were totally influential. so many people have seen that picture that she is now the new poster child for "Don't let a man put his hands on you".


So Tell Us, Do You Think this Picture Issue is going to change the face of Celebrity Trials For Good ?
