I cant even lie, this one wasn't about shit... and I don't have ANYTHING of substance to add to it.

The fact is, I just couldn't stop laughing... Oh, and that Chaka at the end made it worth it.

JumpoffTV: Did Nas handle his parenting problems wrong?

I can already see the women wanting to dismantle me over this one. Well you're too late, @JasFly already go started during the episode... smh And although I (kinda) understood where she was coming from, I couldn't have disagreed more. Now true 17 is not a grown woman and T&A all over the place do NOT an adult make, but I am not about to sit here and tell the world that a 17yr old isn't old enough to make certain choices and live with the consequences.

I think she should consider herself lucky, plenty of people are put in situations where they have to grow up preeety quick. And, in my SUPER humble opinion, by jumping into the spotlight an talking so greasy... she put herself in one.

But hey, what do I know...

I Can Explain... coming soon

IS AZEALIA BANKS TOO ARROGANT FOR A NEW ARTIST?

Here’s the thing… some people just don’t pay attention, even when you are in fact talking about them or something they’re interested in.Case in point, this Azealia Banks video. I took one look at the comments section and just shook my head.

Now of course there are always gonna be stans who show up and ride hard on behalf of the artist they feel we slandered. They’re basically super-dedicated and delusional  fans who can’t or wont understand how anyone can see ANYTHING negative in what their artist does.

Then there’s the “don’t hate” crew. These cats may not even be fans, but can’t stand it when anyone talks negative about somebody in the spotlight. To answer that, they negative about the folks they’re mad at. Clever huh? lol

But then.. there are those cats that just don’t seem to listen to what’s being said right in front of them. It NEVER ceases to amaze me how folks will just hear shit that hasnt been said! They comment on things we didn’t say while ignoring what was actually said, give us all credit for stances we don’t all have…

Can Rick Ross Resurrect Ma$e & Omarion?

I'm not mad at the concept of signing Omarion and Mase... it's actually a step up from the cats he's gone after lately. No real disrespect to the other cats on MMG, but these are two former franchise artists who went hard in their respective times.  If you think Mase didnt damn near sink Bad Boy after he retired you're buggin. And B2K was never really seriously replaced after O bounced. So while it may seem like a stretch to some, I can kinda see the vision on this one.

I guess my only question is, when is Ross, or ANYBODY for that matter, actually going to break a brand new artist? Pulling somebody out of thin air seems to be an overall lost art in the rap business. Even if it looks like that, a few looks in and you find out they're related to somebody or used to have a deal and lost it... Where the hell did the A&R's vanish too? Why are the people who make the decisions basing them strictly on numbers? Do you realize that the best artists music's ever offered have come out of the blue? I get wanting to make a sound investment and I wont knock it. But man... SOMEBODY has to try and legitimately DISCOVER new talent instead of rehashing the old.

Or maybe labels will just keep doing this till we all die... and we'll let em. What do I know?

Rock On Ross... Rock on.

I Can Explain..! Coming soon

Does Barack Obama Still Need Hip-Hop?

Fam, I still have a lot of questions from his original election that go waaay deeper than Barack's iTunes picks. But we'll do that some other time, to focus on this, I think that answer is no.

Now don't get i twisted, I think it's... cute that he's giving Jeezy a shout. Jeezy DID give him a cool campaign song for free-ninety-nine just to have Obama about face and replace his invite to poetry night with one call to Common. #ColdGame But does that mean he needs Hip-Hop? I say nay.

Here's why, if Barack NEVER shouts out the house that Herc built again in this campaign... are you really gonna green-light the other guy?

Yeah.. me neither

See y'all at the polls

Will Kim Kardashian Be Kanye West's Downfall?

Fam, I'm still bugging that cats didn't know the difference between pussy whipped and pussy drunk...

Rock On

So Brian McKnight's a recreational gynecologist huh?

Aight, so my post game has been on some bullshit lately and (once again) I'm kinda behind. So there's no need to beat you in the head with a story that's been as exposed as the cooch he's capitalized on in song form, so I'm gonna keep this short and sweet.

I'm NOT mad at Mr. McKnight

Even if you DON'T believe it was a joke (which it was) consider this:

First of all, he's a grown ass man who apparently is an ass-man. If he wants to wave the good old freak-flag for the forty-year old freak-fans, I say put the mast on blast.

Second, I can't find a way to throw sodium on a guy that re-introduced himself to the world of world-star, picked his twitter game up AND laughed all the way through iTunes... IN ONE DAY.

And lastly, look at this as just another blurring of the lines. Singers wanna be rappers (Trey, Chris) and rappers keep trying to sing (Kanye, Weezy) mostly to HORRID results. So instead of a sixteen bar embarrassment, Brian wore a rapper attitude to the booth and won.
