Ugh Ice T… SIGH

Do I even have to say anything… type anything about this tomfoolery?!

Here’s Ice and his plastic, trampy, trailer park wife, Coke Ho… I mean Co Co on the red carpet at the premiere of “I Am Legend.” Everybody else showed up dressed nice and looking classy… then these two popped up!

Beanie Sigel Needs Your Support

Not that he would be smart enough to figure out the right ways to keep and grow his money, but Beanie needs you to log onto ITunes and download his latest release, “The Solution,” or go cop that at your nearest music retailer.

Beanie’s Maserati was in danger of being auctioned off because he owed the city of brotherly love $1,700 in unpaid parking tickets. A friend had to put up the money to get it back before somebody else got a sweet deal at the Philly Auction House. I guess paying the note on the ‘rati ate up all his parking meter change :-\

Little People Flashin’

I’m not just talking about Bow Wow’s size. His mind is little.

I copped this from Bossip. Apparently Bow Wow thinks it’s cool to run around flashing your money for all (and paparazzi) to see. The Bossip post says he wouldn’t do it if he wasn’t in Beverly Hills. I say he wouldn’t do it if he didn’t have security with him. You can get that ass knocked in Da BH too!

As for the stupidity of him taking such a picture, it just pisses me off because shit like this is the reason why so many teens and young adults are obsessed with “gettin’ money.” Take the dirty looking lil niggas that broke into Washington Redskin Sean Taylor’s house to rob him and ended up killing him.

I am a lover of hip hop music, but the music and the culture has the ugly side effect of materialism. And Bow Wow’s little four foot, eleven inch frame posturing in this picture is exactly the kind of image we don’t need any more of.

SO WHAT YOU GOT MONEY!!! Do something constructive with that shit.

Here are pictures from one of the Sean Taylor murder suspects, 19 year old Jason Mitchell’s MySpace page of him flashing money. SMH… Just SAD! :-\

When The Public Stops Paying Attention… To Ray J

Rhymes With Snitch posted this cover art for the DJ K Slay/Ray J Unkut “mixtape” and I gotta say, Ray J tops the ultra-whack list for trying to extend his sextape fame by using a still frame from one of his sessions with Kim Big Butt to generate interest in this “mixtape.” This is a true cry for publicity. He’s just screaming “Hey y’all! Keep looking over here at me!” SAD.

Bossip reported back in November that this “mixtape” was possibly gonna come out and also have audio of Kim leaving Mr. Please Look At Me a voicemail that will be featured on this “mixtape.” Click here for their story and a clip where Kim lets him know her lawyers are ready.

Sonja and Willie did such a pretty decent job raising Brandy… what the hell happened with this jackass???

THIS Nigga Right Here!!! >:-[

The jackass pictured here on the left, 32 year old Cardrico Lajuan Nash, is not rich, but he made the national news. This loser was arrested in Tulsa, Oklahoma early yesterday morning for child endangerment after he left his four… yes, FOUR children in his parked car while he went inside a… STRIP CLUB!!!

The police were called to the scene and found the children, aged 3 MONTHS TO 7 years old asleep in the car. KJRH News is reporting that it was 39 degrees outside when Nash was arrested at 1am. And why did he try to pull that “I wasn’t even in there that long, just about 15 minutes” shit??? Talkin’ bout “I just came to pick up a relative.”

Maybe if this crime wasn’t so hideous, the people inside wouldn’t have snitched on him, but they did what was right and put him on blast – told the police he had been inside for at least an hour and the relative that he mentioned he was there to pick up wasn’t even in the club!

Talk about fucked up priorities!

By the way, don’t EVER get arrested in Tulsa County. They put ALL your arrest and booking info right on the internet for the whole world to see. Good for Cardrico’s ignorant ass! Click here for the father of the year’s info.

And where the hell is these kids’ momma?

Birdman Should Have Chosen Wings

With hanging nooses being the new trend around the country – especially in the South – you would think your boy Birdman aka Baby, would want to have a speedy trip to New York from Louisiana – not take the damn scenic route!

So Birdman’s dumb ass, along with fifteen other people, decided it would be a good idea to take an RV ride up to New York for the taping of a show for MTV. They got stopped in Tennessee. The arresting officer said he could smell the marijuana smoke before he even entered the vehicle and of course, when he searched, he found weed… and guns (sigh).

Why man… WHY???

Yeah it’s cheaper to drive all your entourage up to New York as opposed to flying up there, but the money you save can get your ass caught up when you’re taking a tour through some of America’s most gonna-get-your-black-asses-for-that-Jena6-shit southern states. I bet they wish they spent the money on a private jet now! And you know they have the money! When you can take thousands of dollars and put it into mouth jewelry and chains, you can afford a private jet ride or two. Sixty thousand dollars… or having to deal with THE MAN… hmmm… which one would I pick?

I’m not even gonna talk about how Bird is 38 and his wife Brittany, who was also arrested, is just EIGHTEEN!!! Poor girl… she’s gotta look at that face feel those man tits rubbing up against her on a regular basis. Ewwwww!

The Hater of the Niggardry is BACK!

===================================================

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family and/or friends! I had to take a little hiatus from the blog – ya know… family and personal commitments to tend to. But thank you to Rose, Rickety Rocket, Ankles, JC, E-Boogie, Cree, Jackz and the two :-) other TSNGNM readers who had to either call or send e-mails to remind me that there was plenty-o-niggeration going on out there that I was neglecting to speak on.

===========================================

I’m back in the saddle now kids. We bout to have some‘mo fun! G’won now and post a comment or two! :-)

Poor Mike Jones…

Bossip.com will every now-and-again post pieces called When the Checks Stop Coming In. They’re mostly pretty funny – and sometimes sad – when you see people who were once “gettin’ that dough,” but now are lookin’ quite broke and ashy.

Here’s my take on When the Checks Stop Coming In, called When the Public Stops Paying Attention. Up first, Mike Jones… who? Mike Jones… who? Mike Jones!!!

Some say you gotta respect his hustle: having the YouTube channel, trying to keep his name out there the best way he knows how with those minimal marketing dollars from his label. But the best thing any artist can do for their career is to just get a GOOD publicist (outside of the label publicity department) and pay them! Then you don’t have to resort to shit like this:

Do we really need to go along with Mike and his sport-n-wave cap to the store where he buys his multi-colored shoes and bedazzled jeans? And is it just me or does that grill he’s wearing make him talk like… like… ya know, when the dentist puts those rolled up pieces cotton in your mouth to sop up the spit while he’s doing his job?

===================================

Do we really need to see him driving down the highway… or the back and forth with his lovely face and the Jaguar logo on the steering wheel??? I kinda feel like he’s saying “See how I’m doin’ it? Girl, this could be you ridin’ with me right thurrr in the passenger seat… chillin’ in the Jag with Mike Jones.”

===================================

If you don’t want to waste six minutes and five seconds of your life (like I did) watching this “American Hater, Episode 4” video, you can just skip ahead to through most of the ignorance to 4:53 (where the ignorance was unintentionally funny) to see Mike in his bedazzled hoodie and rental Rolls with the red Little Tree air freshener hanging from the rear view mirror! Gotta love that hood mentality! And shame on Alex Thomas for helping Mike to make this foolishness :-\

TSNGYNM… Especially If You’re Gonna Use It To Buy A Fake Ass!

I am pretty sure there are some men out there that will disagree with me on this, but fake asses are sooooo inappropriate! They are especially stupid if you’re tiny and you have this giant bah-dunk-a-dunk pounding behind you every time you make a step. This one looks down right cartoonish!

I guess this chick, Angel Lola Luv, is the next Karinne Steffans/Melyssa Ford. She’s parlaying her video hoe-isms into a King Magazine cover, acting, lay-outs and … as she put’s it… MENTORING!

OJ Diagnosed with ASS

Last Friday when I put up my original post on OJ Simpson, I didn’t get too deep into it because all the details were still coming in and the Las Vegas police were still confused as to what the hell really happened. But as the details got more and more clear over the weekend and OJ was arrested, arraigned and released on bail, all kinds of stories, characters and information are coming out of the woodwork.

I’m not about to say anything anyone else hasn’t already said, but I just have to say it… OJ’s one stupid… STUPID ASS NIGGA. You know… KNOW da man has been itchin’ to get you on something since you were cleared of double murder back in 1995 and you can’t just go and sit your ass down somewhere, relax and thank God and your lucky stars that you were acquitted of something you know the average man with no money would be rotting in jail for right now??? Why would you NOT think to involve lawyers and the police in getting back your stolen merchandise? Why would you hang out with and take a bunch of ex cons and questionable dudes to a hotel room to get back your stuff KNOWING that the situation might get a little violent if somebody says the wrong thing or makes the wrong move??? Why wouldn’t you think of all these things knowing that a large percentage of Americans hate your guts because they think you escaped justice???

It’s ASS, Athlete’s Stupid Syndrome. It’s the same thing I wrote about back on August 28th when I was talking about Michael Vick. Athletes are treated differently starting from a young age. Everything is always taken care of for them and swept under the rug – they aren’t held accountable for their bullshit the way the rest of us are and so they think they can get away with ANYTHING. Remember Jayson Williams of the New Jersey Nets? Showing off his New Jersey estate to his guests, bragging and showing off, he mistakenly shoots his driver in the face… then tries to cover it up to say and the man committed suicide??? ASS. Plain and simple. ASS is why OJ still doesn’t have a fucking clue 17 years after getting a pass on double murder charges. Every time I saw a reporter walk up to someone on the street the past few days and ask what their opinion was of OJ Simpson, the most common remark was “How could he be so stupid?” ASS I tell ya… ASS.

So we’re all on the same page, OJ is a dumb ass for trying to conduct this “sting” on his own with his boys, but Geraldo Rivera is just a HUGE asshole. He’s basically badgering this guy Tom Riccio that set up the whole thing, leading him to say what he wants him to say and putting words into his mouth.

=================

This whole thing with OJ is tragic, yet funny. And to add a little more comic relief, here’s Jimmy Kimmel’s Jake Byrd crashing the press conference OJ’s lawyer held in Las Vegas after he got him released on bail:

Who the FUCK Has Trouble Believing the Earth IS NOT FLAT???

It’s been quite the past few days for your girl. I’ve got this new project I’m working on that’s kicking my ass and taking up ALL my free time. I just hate when I can’t pay attention to the news and pop culture so that I can get my blog on. Being able to write out your thoughts is a great creative release.

So one thing that really got my attention – other than OJ Simpson’s dumb ass – was as I was getting ready to leave the house this morning, The View was on my TV (don’t ask why… I think it was on ABC from the night before) and I happened to catch Sherri Shepherd trying to explain that she knows the earth is round. “Huh???” I said to myself. What the heck??? Who the hell doesn’t know that the earth is round? When they beam back pictures from the space shuttle, it’s round. When you’re traveling on a plane, you can see the curvature of the earth.

Apparently, yesterday she got asked the question of whether or not she thought the world was round from Whoopi Goldberg when they were discussing religion and science.

Here’s the video:

Ok… I am not one to knock those true believers who go word-for-word on what the bible says, but sometimes you just have to be f’n real and cut the bullshit. It’s like people who say dinosaurs didn’t really exist because they aren’t in the bible. Ummm … yes they did, they got fuckin’ big ass bones that are dug up all over the earth from millions of years ago.

Whatever I believe is not important, but again, when we have niggas on TV talkin’ crazy, they get lumped into the ALL BLACK PEOPLE pool. And even though Whoopi is on The View to balance out Sherri’s coonery, it still just pisses me off. Yes, there are people from other groups who are deeply religious and will be on TV saying the same thing, but I just wish Sherri could have given a more articulate, smarter response (You can disagree with me. That's the beautiful thing about free speech: leave a comment or post on your own blog and share the link.) Another thing that annoys me with Sherri on The View is she's the loud, eye-buckin', neck rollin' black woman stereotype. Bossip.com has a GREAT discussion going on in their comments section on this story. Check it out here.

OJ... PLEASE Stop It!

I’m not going to put too much energy into this post because everything on this so-called burglary by OJ Simpson and his associates is still preliminary, but damn it OJ… will you PLEASE just go sit your ass down somewhere and stay out of trouble... and out of the media spotlight?! We don’t want to see your name or face in the media ANY MORE.

cnn.com has more details on the “robbery.” cnn.com video on the story.

Is It Just Me Or Is Kanye West Getting The Fuck On Your Nerves Too???

==========================

Here he is on Jimmy Kimmel last night:

Part 1

Part 2

==============================================

In my own personal opinion, Kanye is still – in his own words – “swimming in whack juice.”

You may disagree with me. You may be one of the half million people that went out to buy his CD or downloaded it from iTunes this week, but the only way I will be listening to this shit is from a burn from a friend.

There’s nothing wrong with knowing you have great talent. There’s nothing wrong with taking pride in your work. There’s nothing wrong with being disappointed about losing awards at award shows. There’s nothing wrong with taking bad reviews of your work to heart. But I just think the more people enable him and buy his music, the more it will make his big, fat, chipmunk head bigger and bigger.

I just want this dude to get over himself and realize the world doesn’t revolve around Kanye. And to also realize…

- That everyone is not gonna always think you’re better than other artists and therefore, sometimes you won’t win all the awards.

- That musical tastes differ and preference on rap flows aren’t all the same, and so you may not get the best written reviews from some media outlets.

- That MTV will survive without your appearances and your music. They don’t give a fuck that you’re boycotting them! They don’t give a fuck that you want to celebrate your achievement with them. They care about ratings and sales dollars – and you being missing from their programming will not make a big impact on them.

- EVERYONE DOES NOT HAVE TO PRAISE YOU… OR KISS YOUR ASS KANYE.

I’m not the only one annoyed. Jeff Garlin was a guest on Kimmel last night as well, and much to my delight mocked the bullshit Kanye was spitting – as well as his gear:

Go sit your Louis Vuitton purse carrying ass down in a corner somewhere and be happy about what you DO HAVE!

I Am Pretty Sure You've Seen This Already BUT...

What is your take on the Kanye West tirade backstage at the MTV VMAs? I myself, as you can tell from my previous post, am pretty much over him and his antics. He’s like a spoiled little child. His bitchy little girl antics are actually quite annoying. His mom should beat his ass more often when he was growing up… maybe he wouldn’t be such a broad about not winning awards-n-shit :-\

Observations

Life’s been a little crazy lately for ya girl, so I haven’t been able to post anything about the MTV Video Music Awards as of yet, so here it goes:

Kanye West:

-Why must he be a bitch about not winning? Dude, everything ain’t for everybody! There are other artists and they work just as hard as you… and they have fans too! Must we remind you, this is MTV??? They don’t care about your black ass. And did you really expect to win in some of those categories? Your co-nominees had songs out throughout the year. Your shit JUST came out. Stop trippin’ and keep your fingers crossed for a BET Hip Hop Award. Click here for the rest of the story on how he’s never returning to MTV again.

Ne-Yo:

-Please stop it with your homo-erotic sensitive one-eyed stares into the camera! And chill with the lip gloss for crying out loud! You’re making Pimp C’s comments about you seem all too true.

Diddy:

-You know damn well you shouldn’t have had Brit Brit out all weekend long partying and getting high. I ain’t saying it’s your fault, but damn it, you weren’t encouraging her to get her rest in and her dance steps rehearsed.

Beyonce:

-PLEASE let Mama Tina stop dressing you in gold-n-shimmery trash bags! That dress was (as Perez Hilton would like to say) SHITEOUS!

…and oh, was your face broken when Rihanna took Video of the Year award for “Umberella ella ella eh eh eh”???

Kid Rock & Tommy Lee:

-We can’t take you niggas no where! Fighting over Pam Anderson’s old wrinkled up tranny lookin’ ass :-\

Dr. Dre:

-Was it just me or did he look like the Incredible Hulk?

Timbaland:

-Did we have to see you SO MUCH???

Soulja Boy:

-I know it may seem cool to walk around with shades with your NAME written on them… maybe you still think people don’t know who you are, but damn it.. STOP IT!

WTF... NO, What The Fuck 50 Cent???

Ok so I’m minding my business today, heading over to MTV.com to find out what time the VMAs are coming on and what do I see on the front page of their site but THIS:

So then I go around to the other sites to see if anyone else has these pics and Bossip has more. Apparently these are from his album release party in Vegas. Check out the rest here.

Ok ewwwwwwww Fiddy! You DO KNOW that she has HERPES right??? What the hell happened to Ciara? I heard she was in the spot. That’s just DIRTY! On top of that, you know Parasite Hilton will smile in your face and call you a nigger behind your back. Wanna see Paris drunk… talking about poor people, fat ugly Jewish bitches, black whores who get fucked in the butt for coke, niggers and being black and stealing shit?

Here it is:

I always refrained from 50 bashing before, because although he went around rubbing people the wrong way, whenever I heard/read one of his interviews, he came off as a smart business man. Now, he’s falling into the dumb niggER category because he is photographed kissing and hugging a known herpes having racist cunt. It doesn’t bother me, like I’m sure it would most black women that she’s white, what pisses me off is that people in the industry knows she’s no fan of niggERs. Again, check the video above.

I hope this is all about publicity for your album coming out on Tuesday Fif… and if it is, damn, couldn’t you be hugging a white girl that’s NOT trash???

Foxy’s Fresh Out of Breaks

She won’t be smiling like that for quite some time.

Earlier today in a New York court room, Judge Melissa Jackson rejected sending Foxy Brown to jail for 9 months and gave her a full year. Foxy told the judge, “I'm willing to do whatever I need to do to change… I realize that's [jail] not where I want to be. It's humbled me in ways I never imagined."

The judge was like Sorry bitch, you’re fired! Go directly to jail and do not pass go! What Judge Jackson actually said was, “Ms. Marchand, it's too little, too late. I'm glad you're learning something; that's a positive.” DAMN.

Looks like unless Foxy gets paroled early for good behavior, she’ll be having that baby in the pen :-(

Click here to see what a probation office lawyer testified Foxy did while she was out and SUPPOSED TO BE on good behavior.

Slow Times in NiggaLand

I love it when it’s slow like this ladies and gents – no niggas out there embarrassing the good black people of the U.S. of A. If they are out there up to no good, they are keeping it away from the media. YIPPEEE!

Everybody seems to be on their good behavior… EXCEPT Eddie Griffin. According to That Bitch over at Rhymes With Snitch, Eddie was the comedian booked to entertain a bunch of upwardly mobile black people and he used the word Nigga way too much and turned off the audience. You know I am not afraid to use the word – especially when somebody’s outta pocket, but Eddie… you MUST know your audience! Check out the rest of the story here.

Lil Kim Wants To Go Back To Jail

So you think if you’ve already served time in the pen for perjury that you would basically be doing everything on the up and up… especially as a WOMAN! What woman wants to spend more time in jail, right???

Apparently Lil Kim wants to be on the same cell block as Foxy because she was caught out driving a Lamborghini last night. Usually that’s not a problem, but Kim doesn’t have a driver’s license and worse than that, THE CAR DOESN’T HAVE TAGS ON IT!!! If you’re gonna take a car with no tags for a spin, it should be a Toyota Tercel or something… not something that sticks out like a sore thumb like a friggin’ Lamborgini! Lucky for Kim, the cops who cited her didn’t take her to jail and eventually she was picked up by her lawyer – who drove her away in the Lambo. Now is it just me or aren’t they supposed to NOT let you drive it away if there are no tags on the car??? I guess Kim has a little of that Lohan luck. She didn’t get arrested and she got to keep the car. Go figure! Why can’t people just be smart about these things???

The King, I Mean PRINCE of White Girls Wants You to Have it Straight

You may or may not have heard of Polow (pronounced Polo) Da Don, but he is a producer who has worked with artists like Ciara, Fergie, Kelis, Ludacris, The Pussy Cat Dolls, Rich Boy, etc. With the exception of music industry types, he has pretty much been under the radar, but he had to go and start giving interviews to AllHipHop.com and get a little publicity by making controversial statements. I mean he DOES have to get his visibility game up… you got people like Timabaland, Dr. Dre, Pharrell and Kanye West walking around being recognized. Why can’t Polow get some of that fame???

He recently sat down with AllHipHop.com again to clarify and reiterate statements he made in a previous interview that got all the black internet blogs buzzing with comments from pissed off black women. I basically jacked a good portion of the interview – especially some of his most interesting statements – from All Hip Hop and have it below… but I did leave some of it out so you they can get their clicks too. You can get the entire interview here.

I would LOVE to get feedback comments on this one! So here it goes:

AllHipHop.com: I think people viewed the Black women not being submissive comment as a negative thing. Do you view the idea of a woman being submissive as negative?

Polow Da Don: Well of course [they viewed it as negative], because they've been taught to think that. And that's exactly my point. A lot of those women who probably feel that way probably came up without both parents, or they are probably in a situation where they are not married now. All you got to do is refer to the “Willie Lynch Letter.” First of all, we don’t read enough as a people, we don't educate ourselves enough as a people. When I make strong opinions and comments like this, you're gonna have people that go crazy, and you're gonna have other people that say, "He's right." So my point is, anybody with a strong opinion, or strong words, or when you say something racial, it's an emotional thing. Black women are very emotional, Black people are very emotional. So when you're talking about a race, it's going to be emotional, it's going to be mixed views.

I'm just bringing the problem out to the forefront. That's the only way you can solve a problem. If you're in denial and say, "We don’t have a problem," you will see the divorce rate increase, or you will see [the] marriage rate decrease because it's already been proven. My parents got married almost 40 years ago, and they are still together and more in love than my homeboys and my homegirls.

AllHipHop.com: Do you think that your mom would agree or disagree with your statements?

Polow Da Don: She would definitely say I was right. I love my mother because she is a strong woman. My mother came from Japan. My mother was born in Japan so she has very strong morals. At the end of the day, she definitely believes in letting the man be the man of the house. She definitely believes in family because of what she went through in life. My mother was adopted, so her family is like her only real family. Me, my brother, my sister and my father, we are her life. So she just looks at family a little different, she values it. Of course they have arguments, but they are a healthy couple. But at the end of the day, my mother remains to be a woman, so it makes it so much easier for my father just to be a man. So we were always clear about who was who and what was what. My mother is very strong, she's actually stronger.

It's not that I'm attacking Black women; Black women have done this to themselves. Well I'm not going to say that. They didn't do it to themselves, but they are a part of the cycle, which means they're not helping the situation by not looking at the problem. So let's take White people out of it, and take any other race out of it. I used White women as a comparison because so many Black people get mad because I say that I'm the “King of the White Girls.” First of all, saying that I'm the “King of the White Girls,” how can you find that disrespectful as a Black woman? You are an idiot. If anything, I should have Klansmen feeling disrespected; I should have White women feeling disrespected as far as a Black man saying he's the king of the White women. It's not disrespectful to Black woman at all. If a white man says, "I'm the King of Black women," would [Black women] be mad at the White man? Of course you would be, and so would Black men. You think a White woman would be mad at a White man saying, “I'm the king of Black women?” No, they won’t be mad. So I don't understand how a Black woman can feel offended by me saying I'm the “King of the White Girls.” I didn't come up with that. Like I said, a White man came up with that title for me. But, Black women do need to get their shit together, period, point blank. And if you're in denial of that, you are part of the problem.

AllHiphop.com: Do you think that White women don't have any issues?

Polow Da Don: American women have issues. Black women are the backbone of our families. If every Black woman got together and said, "We're not gonna date guys unless they have PhDs. We're not gonna date guys unless they have a Master’s [degree].” Guess what? In due time, n****s will stop selling dope and they'll start going to college. It's that simple. Again, all you have to do is refer to the “Willie Lynch Letter.” All this was planned. All the negative responses; you're supposed to respond like that. That wasn't even your idea to act like that. That was the white man's idea that had slaves hundreds of years ago. See that's what they don't understand. What I'm doing is shining the light on the problem. So we're shining the light on the roaches, now we got to get these roaches out of here. See me talking like I talk is really a red flag. It's really on some “wake up” s**t.

AllHipHop.com: So why do you go at women more than men?

Polow Da Don: First of all, Americans get divorced almost double any other country. That's a problem within itself. Now Black women, or Black families I should say, almost all end in divorce. Now, a woman, to me, can either hold that together or she can let it go. Most men don’t know how to be men anymore, because most of them come from the brunt of their mothers, with no father there. That woman can't teach them how to be a man. So him not being a man now is just him coming from a background that he's unfortunate. So now, nine times out of ten, he's gonna have a certain way; and if you come from that same kind of background, nine times out of ten, ya’ll are gonna fail as a couple. But it's gonna take the Black women to turn it around. So that's why I come at the Black women first. Just like if I want to have all the hoes on the block and be a pimp, I got to get all the women's backing first. Then I can get all the dudes to come to any party I want them to come to. Look at strip clubs. You take all the women out of strip clubs and see how popular the strip club becomes. You tell women to stop dating dope dealers and you’ll see how cool dealing dope becomes.

AllHipHop.com: So we discussed how some Black have not really learned to be men yet. Do you think that may be a reason why some Black women have a problem being submissive to that kind of man?

Polow Da Don: No. Women have been taught to not trust us. Women have run the household for so long, they've been taught to be independent. So when a man comes in and tries to run the household, they are kind of fighting for that spot, so to speak. There's gonna be a little resistance before a woman just let's it all go because they've seen their mothers be strong, and grandmothers be so strong, and they taught them to be the same way. So when you meet a guy you're gonna challenge him. Take somebody like Oprah (Winfrey.) To me Oprah is a bad example. To me Oprah being titled as the most powerful Black woman in America, and she doesn’t have a man… To me that's sending a bad signal to all young Black women. That's saying the most powerful Black woman in America didn't need a man. You telling me that's a role model?

AllHipHop.com: Do you feel like people who are celebrities hold their tongue on issues like this? Do you think they should?

Polow Da Don: I feel like status and money allows you to be who you really are. I think that's why some people are in the closet, until they get rich, then go, "Oh! I'm gay." This is who I really am. I really am someone who looks at the big picture. I feel like I just see through so much of the bulls**t. I look past the things that are right in front of me. So, all you got to do is read the Bible. Read, just read. It is a fact that it should be God, man, woman, child. I feel like if a woman plays her role, then a man has no choice but to play his role. And they both, as a whole, need to get back into God. Then our children will fall in line. Our children will not disrespect [their] parents. But I think we do have to start with the Black woman because [they] have the most power.

AllHipHop.com: Another statement that offended people was when you said either Black people are idiots or white people are geniuses. I think they interpreted the statement as your personal feelings. Do you remember that statement?

Polow Da Don: I think everybody keeps forgetting that I'm Black myself. And what people like to do is, once somebody gets a little money, all of a sudden you're not one of “them” anymore. The problem is, most of your readers, especially on AllHipHop.com, don't know who they are and don't read, and are not educated. N****s don't read books. Now when you print that, a lot of people are gonna get mad. But I'm gonna tell you something, White people already know this. It's not a secret so don't get mad at me for stating the facts. I'm not making Black people look bad, you're making Black people look bad. Black people already look bad. You go anywhere across the world and see how they respect Black people. Africans don't even respect Black Americans. I'm just saying, this is real s**t. Everybody looks at the Black American like we're fools, like we're lazy, like we're idiots, and like we're dumb. This is factual, and if you don't believe that I'm telling the truth, what you need to do is just do your history and do your homework. Discuss this matter with people around the world. Come on man, n****s is dying and killing over rims and jewelry. It is time to be slapped and wake up.

AllHipHop.com: So do you think that your opinions set you apart from others in the industry?

Polow Da Don: When I came into the game with my production, didn't you hear something different in my music? Like a sense of dignity? When I blew up, snap music was the biggest thing poppin'. When I came with "London Bridge" a hater will look at it like "Aww man, he doing pop music. He giving all that good stuff to white people." I look at it like; I'm bringing them to my culture because that's the most Hip-Hop you've ever heard. "London Bridge" was probably one of the most Hip-Hop beats that came out in the last three to five years. So, everything I do, I do with pride and I do with dignity. And that's why the real leaders in this game respect me. And that's why I'm different. That's why I get invited to dinner dates that others don't get invited to. They know that my mind set, it's just something about me. This is a secret. Black people have secrets. White people don’t. And what I meant when I said “either black people are idiots or white people are geniuses” is that we have fallen for the trick over and over again. We are more enslaved than we've ever been. We used to get our a** beat to do stuff, now we do it on our own. Now we hold each other down on our own. Now we don't wanna be s**t on our own. Now we don't read on our own. I'm a bad motherf****r, any other questions?

Foxy Wants Out!

Last Thursday I put up a post about Foxy Brown needing to calm her crazy ass down and needing to be sent to jail. Well just days later, she would go in for a hearing for violating her parole and that’s just what happened, they told her she needs to sit her ass in jail until her September 7th hearing date since she can’t get her attitude straight.

So now she’s in jail… complaining and acting a fool. She even had her lawyer file a suit against the New York Department of corrections because she is “suffering greatly” and on the grounds that the judge who tossed her in jail for violating her probation made a ruling that was “arbitrary” and “unlawful.” Sucks to be Foxy, because the judge who received the filing for the suit to get her out tossed it… so her ass will have to stay in jail.

Not so hard now huh??? Do your time Fox… New York is not California. You will be in until they decide to set you free. Let’s hope she is learning a lesson of tough love while in the pen ;-\

Lookin' Broke

Tasha over at YBF has pictures from Yung Joc’s Hustlenomics album release party in the ATL and all I can say is damn! Joc was on that list of hip hop’s richest artists that came out two weeks ago, but how you gonna be rich, wear big gawdy ugly ass chains and STILL LOOK BROKE??!! Not cute Joc. Try again.

Check out the rest of the pics over at YBF.

Poor Little Mixed Girl

KeKe Wyatt’s white momma likes to call her and other people NIGGA. Not NIGGER.

While checking the blogs this morning – one of the first I always check is Rhymes With Snitch because she has that “news from the bathroom wall” – I found the interview of R&B singer Ketara “KeKe” Wyatt from Essence.com. You may remember KeKe from the duet with Avant, “Nothing In This World.” She got sentenced to jail for stabbing her then husband/manager after he “put his hands on her” a few years back, but now she’s out and ready to release a new album.

Although KeKe is light skin-ded (yes, I DID type ‘skin-ded’), it never occurred to me that she was of mixed race, but she is. She speaks about it in her interview with Essence.com… that she’s 25% black and blah blah blah… the entire article is QUITE hilarious because it goes to speak – from my opinion anyway – on how SOME… and I repeat SOME mixed race children grow up without a sense of self and are confused, even sometimes delusional about race – including their own racial make up.

There’s a lot more of the interview and you can get it either over at Essence.com or Rhymes (Rhymes has the funniest comments on the article). I especially tripped out on how she said her white mother used to call her nigga and that her mom uses the word often when she’s talking to people. What her mom chooses to call people is really not that big of a deal to me (people are gonna say what they're gonna say), the part that got me the most is what I pasted below, she refers to black people with “they” and “their” and the rest I just highlighted because its all just so ridiculous! Her label PR person should have shut this shit down before it ever saw the net :-\

Interview:

Essence.com: Yes, and many people still believe that “ignorant people” equals “Black people.”

K.W.: At the end of the day, you’re the one who is ignorant. I don’t think people should use the word so much. I hate how everyone thinks that Black people are beneath them, even Asians, Whites and ...Mexicans. No, I’m not all Black, but I definitely stand up for the Black people. They’ve had it rough, they can’t help the fact that they’re skin is dark, or that their nose is a lil’ wider or that the curls in their hair might be tighter than yours. I don’t think that it’s fair for people who look like me with the light skin, pointy nose and the pretty hair to think that dark-complected people are any less than them. Who am I? I’m not better than you. I breathe the same air and I bleed the same blood. Nobody is better than anybody else. We are all in this struggle called life. I think brown skin is beautiful because people like me have to lay out in the sun to try and look like you. My best friends are Black-Black-Black—and I think that’s so beautiful. I think that’s why I decided to make my children Black. I could have married a White dude or got with a White man and my kids probably would have looked completely White. That’s not what I wanted. Now, they can go outside and get a for-real tan (laughs). I think Black is beautiful. I stand for the African-American people until the day I die.

By the way… If you know KeKe’s mom, please send her a link to this site… ya know, since she likes the word nigga and all, she would REALLY like my blog ;-)

Here are some YouTube clips of KeKe. I thought it would be good to put up videos of her as well, because sometimes pictures don’t always give you a good sense of what someone looks like (you know with the hair and make-up artists doing their magic). LOOKS BLACK TO ME… but you be the judge:
