To The Corner…
“I’m a big fan of Jay-Z, but outside of the States and hip-hop circles, no one really knew who he was until he married Beyonce.”
The In Da Club rapper has also disputed reports that Jay-Z is worth an estimated $1 billion (GBP540 million), but is adamant he’s not jealous of his fortune.
He adds, “I don’t believe he’s worth that much! It’s all been exaggerated. I’m comfortable. I don’t want for anything so I’m not in a race.” [ source ]
Five Dimes, please take this time to sit your knuckle-dragging ass down.
I love how Curtis always has something to say when he has a new album in the kitchen! Controversy sells, right? I vote no. Next!
Sep 26 2008You See The Outfit, Bitch!
It’s been a while since I posted some info on The Baddest. Trina hit the stage for the Back To School Jam in GA last week — looking like a Liberty City backyard wrestler. I’m not sure what inspired the costume, but those Church’s Chicken thighs are so damn distracting that I gave up on everything else. You gotta love Trina.
Sep 26 2008I Wanna Be Alone Tonight!
According to reports, Chicago MC Kanye West might be starring in Spike Lee’s “School Daze II”–the sequel to his critically acclaimed, 1988′s School Daze.
Spike Lee has finished writing the script and is hoping to cast Kanye West and Alicia Keys in the lead roles. The only problem is no one wants to buy his script.
The original film focuses on a not so popular young man who wants to pledge to a popular fraternity at his historically black college.
The sequel focuses on the same college, twenty five years later. [ source ]
Now Spike, you know I am a huge supporter of your extraordinary work, but I just can’t get down with this shit! Why is it that people always feel that a good movie automatically calls for a sequel? Sometimes you should just let a classic be a lone classic — without all the excess fuckery. I guarantee that if a School Daze 2 does make it to the big screen, it won’t be half as good as the original.
Since Spike is an elder and this is his first fuck-up at The Fury, I won’t ask him to sit his ass down today…but I can’t make promises for his future.
Sep 24 2008GASP!
Following the Aug. 8 birth of his son Parker, singer Clay Aiken is following through on a promise he made to himself as a new dad: to publicly acknowledge that he’s gay.
“It was the first decision I made as a father,” Aiken, 29, tells the upcoming issue of PEOPLE, on newsstands Friday. “I cannot raise a child to lie or to hide things. I wasn’t raised that way, and I’m not going to raise a child to do that.” [ source ]
[sarcasm] Bitch, you are lying! I never would have thought that Clay kissed pickles! [/sarcasm]
I love how people are treating this shit like it’s a huge surprise. If Da Brat appears on the cover of JET saying she scratches coochie, I’m not even gonna blink twice. We know the deal.
Sep 24 2008See Spot Run
I don’t know what was going on at Jermaine Dupri’s Birthday Party last night, but I feel a sense of urgency just by looking at the photos. Maybe JD had to run to the shitter and put in some hard work — I don’t know. Any of you have an idea?
In WTF?!Sep 22 2008Spotlight!: DJ Dimples
DJ Dimples was born to love music. While growing up in Miami, Florida she found a fascination with her parents’ old record collection and at the tender age of three – “Miami’s Queen of the Turntables” was in the making. DJ Dimples honed her skills in her backyard ‘studio’ and with intense effort and dedication, she taught herself everything from mixing to scratching. DJ Dimples is music’s future and one of the few female deejays in South Florida and is expected to take the industry by storm. [ via Myspace ]
I haven’t done a spotlight in a minute, due to me not really giving a damn about them, but I had to show major love to my favorite DJ in the world — DJ Dimples! When I say that nobody does the turntables justice like this woman, I mean that shit! Not only is she great at what she does, but she has a funky style and a great heart. So show her some respect…or I’ll come find you!

Sep 22 2008Janet Farts On Def Jam!
Ignore the title…I just didn’t feel like saying “Janet leaves Def Jam”. That shit sounds boring. However, that is indeed the case. In an interview with the wonderful folks at Rap-Up, Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins stated that Ms. Jackson (if ya’ nasty) has been released from Def Jam. Apparently, she requested this action after feeling that her last album, Discipline, was not properly promoted. I blame this chick!
Sep 22 2008Watch Out For The Big Girls!
Revealing his intention to venture into business other than music by changing his stage name to P. Miller last month, Master P has announced the launch of a new women and girls clothing line called “Miller Peaches” which is specially dedicated to plus-sizes women. In companion to the line’s debut, he also announces a nationwide search for a spokesmodel for the brand.
“Miller Peaches” [ Just shoot me now! — Kid Fury] clothing line specializes in stretch denim for those with curvier physiques. It combines designer style with great value and is targeted at young women from various backgrounds. The line will retail for anywhere between $10 to $20. [ source ]
Now you know, ladies! If you want to be the talk of the flea market, you need to squeeze your cheeks into a Miller Peach! And at a price like $20, nobody can ever say big girls are being ignored in the fashion world. This is for you! I think Percy deserves a hot plate from somebody for this kind gesture!
Sep 22 2008Scruff-tastic!
One of these things is not like the other.
Kanye showed up to Comedy Central’s Emmy After Party looking like a fuzzy raisin. I guess his head is on love lockdown, too. Stephen Colbert seemed less than impressed with Mr. West’s Gullah Gullah appearance, but you can’t tell him nothing. He’ll shave when he’s good and damn ready!
