Well, it looks like there is some sort of blogger epidemic going around known as tagging. Shouts to Sane and Jay Midnyte for involving me. Just so you all know, I’m not one to usually participate in this type of thing, but I’m in a good mood, so what the hell.

The Rules:

• Link the person who tagged you.
  
• Mention the rules in your blog.
  
• Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours.
  
• Tag 6 following bloggers by linking them.
  
• Leave a comment on each of the tagged blogger’s blogs letting them know they have been tagged.

6 Furious Facts about Me:

1. I hate McDonald’s food. I had a bad McNugget when I was little and the bitch at the counter gave me attitude about it. I never went back.

2. I do a lot of dancing on my free time. I know the choreography to damn near every urban dance video created.

3. I fight girls. I try not to make a habit out of it, but some chicks go too far. One of my cousins tried to show out and called my grandmother a bitch last year…I beat the shit out of her.

4. I’m Jamaican — not too outrageously flashy about it, but I’m proud. I think Jamaica is the best place in the world.

5. I can’t stand unnecessary noise.

6. I was in anger management when I was 15. Shit ain’t work.

Now, I’m supposed to pass this around to 6 of my fellow bloggers, but I don’t want to. So, if you read this and you have a blog, consider yourself tagged.

Please take a minute to excuse the gap-mouthed child talking shit at the beginning of this clip. Let’s get to the meat of the matter here.

Chris Brown was apparently running a rehearsal with a random dance class somewhere when this was filmed. The song they covered: Michael Jackson - Get On The Floor. Go figure! Wipe your mouth off and step away from the penis, Christopher. Let’s try something new.

I’d like someone to provide me with the overall purpose of this video. We all know what Diddy and his numerous children look like. I even know their names (and it shames me). So, why do you think Sean is emphasizing the whole I-Am-Superdad attitude? C’mon, this is all clearly a big ploy to try and shit on Kim for leaving his ass. Trying to 1-up his ex-girl by making it seem like he doesn’t need her at the house. You know damn well when the cameras cut off he dropped them babies right into Mario Winans’ arms, left a credit card on the coffee table, and hit the streets.

Don’t fake the funk, Combs!

It’s good to see that Nelly is taking time away from weed-whacking Ashanti’s burning bush to get back in the rap game. His new song, “Wadsyaname” (straight from hooked on phonics hell), is a pretty straight shooting record and it has grown on me. I’m failing to understand the video, though. Is it some kind of tribute to Soul Plane? Whatever the case may be, look out for new music from the head St. Lunatic.

BTW: Nelly’s sac-sucker also has an album due out in December if you give a damn.

It must suck to have to traverse through an entire day with a flea-bitten bitch up under you every second…doesn’t it, little puppy? Yeah, Forhedda is still hamming it up for the ‘razzi on the regular. These “candid” photos are getting tired as hell. It was one thing when she would walk around parking lots for a photo op alone, but now she is dragging that poor ugly ass dog into the foolishness with her.

Um, PETA?

The T.I. arrest story is starting to become a bit sad. The above picture shows some of the guns the ATF found at TIP’s house during the raid. Speaking of which, I heard that the agents who hit the house up were way to vicious — breaking doors, windows, throwing grenades, all with a 3-year old in the house. I even hear they tackled and stomped on T.I.’s young nephew. That shit better not be true.

On top of all that drama, TIP was denied bail recently and Sandra Rose is reporting that Tiny is pregnant with another one of his babies. She, herself, was arrested for possession of marijuana and ecstasy! I honestly feel bad for them, now.

Well, time for lunch!

It’s always uncomfortable to see artists that you have held respect and admiration for over so many years shrivel up and lose their damn minds (Lil’ Kim and Lauryn, I’m talking to your asses too). Foxy Brown just can’t seem to keep her black ass out of the fryer these days and she only makes her situation worse as the world turns.

Foxy Brown, who is currently serving a one-year prison sentence on New York’s Riker’s Island for a probation violation, refused to board a prison bus to a Brooklyn courthouse three times on Friday (October 12). According to the New York Post, the troubled Brooklyn born MC missed the first bus because she needed more time to work on her appearance. “She wanted to have an opportunity to change her clothes and put on makeup and be a bit more prettied up for court,” said prosecutor Robert Isdith. Foxy then reportedly refused to board a second bus because she hadn’t eaten lunch. Her reasons for missing the third bus were not explained. Foxy was scheduled to be arraigned on charges related to her alleged assault of a neighbor with her Blackberry back in July. Justice John Ingram, described as clearly annoyed, rescheduled the appearance for Tuesday (October 16). [ source ]

Okay Fox, first of all, nobody gives a damn what you look like in court. All that spearmint colored eyeshadow and those long ass press-ons…you can leave them in your cell. Secondly, what does it matter if you didn’t eat lunch? They have vending machines at the courthouse. You could have gotten a bag of Fun-Yuns and a Tropicana on the way in! Now you’re probably going to get into more trouble then before!

Damn, black folks in the system be trippin!

Dame Dash has been invisible for a while and I actually liked it that way. Remember that Ultimate Hustler mess on BET? Talk about ignant television. Anyway, Damon’s new hustle is a sort of Myspace ripoff called BlockSavvy. It comes complete with blogs, music, and members with lots of free time on their hands.

Now, Dame and his partner Biggs are releasing an album on the site called, Beyond Reasonable Doubt, a tribute to Jay-Z’s legendary debut LP. It features artists performing their renditions to Jay’s music. Dame recently spoke to MTV about the reasoning behind the tribute and the sentiment behind the original album.

“It’s a piece of us. It’s the only thing we still own that has anything to do with Roc-A-Fella. So back then, and being a part of the DNA of Roc-A-Fella, I was always trying to figure out a way to celebrate it. I knew the 10th anniversary was coming up. I said, ‘Let’s do an album with all the relevant artists doing a rendition of Jay records.’ But Jay said he didn’t like it, so we scrapped it. … You know what it was, he said the best record was Jimmy’s, so he didn’t want to put it out.”

Um, if Jay didn’t like it then, I don’t think he will be jumping for joy about it now. Artists on the new album include Kanye West, Nicole Wray, Jim Jones, and even Cam’Ron (of all people). I’m not sure if Dame is paying homage to Jay or if he is paying homage to Reasonable Doubt and all of the work he put in to make it happen. Seems like a ploy to regain relevancy to me, but then again I’m an asshole!

You can check the album out online at BlockSavvy.com’s The Leak.

Like I said a few days back, close-up shots are not Hov’s strong suit when comes to photo-taking. I still think the cover is decent, though. Subtlety seems to be the best choice in musical advertising these days.

So rumor has it that L-Boogie is with child…again? YBF reported that Lauryn is carrying her fifth child from her baby’s pappy, Rohan Marley. Now, I have been hearing that this was supposed to be a hit-it-and-quit-it session between the old couple, but apparently our girl got herself knocked up in the process (you know Rastafarians don’t believe in the use of condoms…duh).

Well, I don’t suppose we’ll be seeing or hearing too much from Ms. Hill, if this is true. Can’t always trust Jamaicans to pay their child support (coming from a yaddie — I’m kidding), so we better pray for homegirl.
