A police officer shot a teen who opened fire in St. Louis Wednesday. St. Louis Police Chief Sam Dotson said that the officer shot his weapon 17 times after “at least three” shots were fired at him. Right now it is not clear how many times the 18 year old suspect was hit. The officer that shot the 18 year old was off duty and a six year veteran of the St. Louis Police Department. The officer was not shot or hurt and an investigation will decide if the officer was justified with his behavior. Ferguson is about 16 miles from where this incident happened. 

ebola

Teams that are responsible for burying bodies of deceased Ebola patients in Africa are on strike. Sources say teams in two districts of Sierra Leone have gone on strike because they have not been paid their weekly risk allowance. The specialized teams are required to handle corpses due to the virus still being active in victims after they have died. The teams are said to not have been paid their weekly salary of $100 in two weeks. Health worker Tamba Nyandemoh says they bury 17-35 bodies a day. Last week there were 121 recorded deaths and new infections in a single day.

Dr. Dre’s Beats headphones have been banned from being on camera during any NFL broadcast. This information is according to a new deal between the league and Beats rival Bose. The NFL confirmed that Bose received a set of rights that allow it to prevent players and coaches from wearing other manufacturer’s headphones during televised interviews during preseason, practice, and game day. Beats issued a statement in response to the agreement between the league and Bose and argued their headphones are apart of many athlete’s rituals and how music can have a significant positive effect on an athlete’s focus. Beats by Dre makes up 61 percent of the premium headphone market in the U.S. while Bose has a distant 22 percent.

bonecrusher

Bone Crusher thinks his hometown’s new emcees are garbage. Bone considers himself one of Atlanta’s leaders in the crunk era. The era of crunk is sometimes called by critics a mainstream downfall of lyricism in rap music, but according to Bone today’s music is getting worse. One of his points was music is not about money but instead about doing something you enjoy. He feels rappers should learn basic principles of how to make a record and it’s not all about money. If you enjoy your craft the money will come in abundance.

drake4

Drake has created his own Instagram award show called “Hood Grammys.” The only awards given were Vocal Performance of the Year which went to Bobby Shmurda with “Hot Nigga”, Mixtape of the Year went to PARTYNEXTDOOR, Best Latin Club Anthem went to iLOVEMAKONNEN with “Tuesday”, Best All Around Turn Up went to OG Maco “U Guessed It” and Best Performance by a Group or Duo went to Rae Sremmurd for No Flex Zone and Rich Gang feat Rich Homie Quan and Young Thug with “Lifestyle.” Now Drake might have ben a little bias with his choice for mixtape of the year and best latin anthem because those are his artists. What do you think?

Remember Jordan Davis? The 17 year old who was shot by a man for his music being too loud? His killer Michael Dunn was found guilty of first degree murder on Wednesday. The 47 year old took the stand in his own defense in the case. The closing arguments of the case by prosecutor Erin Wolfson pretty much did it for Dunn. Wolfson and other prosecutors proved Michael Dunn shot with the purpose to kill when he fired 10 rounds into the SUV that Jordan Davis and three of his friends were in.

Jordin-Sparks-Jason-Derulo-split

More break ups continue to emerge as “Cuffing Season” has arrived! Jordin Sparks and Jason Derulo reportedly have broken up and gone their separate ways. The two have been dating since September 2011 and were engaged last year but the two just couldn’t hold on any longer *cues awwws*. Sources say that Jason has been seen with a side chick by the name of Carmen Ortega. Although I have seen pictures of the two you never really know what is going on. Sources say that Jordin knew about the affair but decided to stay with Jason because he was her first. Girl ….

wizzzz

Wiz Khalifa finally speaks on his divorce! Pretty much Wiz is saying the divorce was over before Amber Rose caught him with another woman in bed. His statement clearly was “I just didn’t want to be married to her anymore.” Wiz doesn’t really believe he was cheating and explains how he already told his friends weeks before that the marriage was over. Amber is trying to earn over a million dollars from Wiz from a prenuptial agreement the two signed prior to marriage, she also wants full legal and physical custody of their one year old child Sebastian. Do you think telling your friends your marriage is over prior to divorcing justifies cheating??? Chile…

ja-rule1

Ja Rule says men wearing shirt- skirts is part of Hip Hop now! I know you have seen the fashion changing or repeating itself all the time, but lately in Hip Hop men have taken things a new route and embrace some sort of “feminization.” With male rappers wearing kilt skirts, painting their nails, using new words, and wearing shirt-skirts from a distance you might think something off the wall. Ja Rule addresses this topic and says “You know what? If You wanna shirt-skirt, go head get you a shirt skirt. Cause this is your generation.” Ja Rule says he does look back at some of his old pictures and wonder what the hell he was wearing then but he says it is apart of being young and growing up. Ja also adds that he doesn’t think this generation is looking at it as “feminine” but more so “fashionable.” Honey I’m all for fashion and please believe I am all for anybody expressing themselves through clothing, but grown men just should not be painting their nails anything but clear. I’m not even sure I’m okay with clear. LOL!

#McFactz: #RihannasPerformance #IggyAzalea has a #SCANDAL #VibeMagazine ENDS?!

rihanna

The NFL decided to cut Rihanna’s performance for CBS’s Thursday Night Football. Four days after Ray Rice was terminated due to domestic violence the CBS Sports Chairman Sean McManus says “We thought journalistically and from a tone standpoint, we needed to have the appropriate tone coverage.” The decision was most likely made due to Rihanna and Chris Browns domestic violence case a few years ago. The musical opener was replaced by a discussion with Roger Goodell’s recent comments about Ray Rice. Hm….

iggy2

Does she or does she not? Word has been spreading that Iggy Azalea has a sex tape out! The Australian rapper claims that it is not her at first but now her legal team is now saying it might actually be her. The tape is being shopped around specifically to Vivid Entertainment by an ex boyfriend. Vivid Entertainment was behind Kim Kardashian and Ray J’s sex tape and the offer is seven figures for Iggy. Let’s wait this out and see what happens …

vibe

Vibe Magazine is no longer going to be printed! While the company employs over 100 people they have laid off 19 people in a “reduction of force.” Vibe will focus on the internet and their online property. I used to get Vibe Magazine in the mail and I loved that magazine so this is a big change over to digital! Vibe was founded in 1993 by Quincy Jones.

In true MMG fashion, Meek has dedicated himself to perfecting his sophomore project and it is only right that it should be rolled out exceptionally well.

loveandhiphop

Love and Hip Hop Season 3 came to a close last night and the reunion show still ended with some drama. Part 3 of the reunion pretty much shows talks after fights with different perspectives. Benzino and Althea get a chance to discuss their views on their fall out from Stevie J and Joseline but Benzino kept coaching Althea to say “No Comment.” Joseline expresses that she will “beat your ass” male or female if she feels some type of way when she is upset and Stevie J asks Joseline to tell the producers that they are married. Hmm…anyway MiMi still defends her sex tape with Nikko and the audience and cast alone with viewers at home all voted and felt Nikko released the sex tape himself. Season 3 was full of drama but you just couldn’t help but watch..until next time!

I guess the saga continues when it comes to the  “Drake vs Lil Wayne” tour because now the two reveal never before seen Air Jordan 3’s. Drake and Lil Wayne have been seen wearing the sneakers your see in the above picture lately. Both Jordan’s hve a sunset gradient on the laces and inner lining pretty similar to the color scheme of their tour logo. It might be predictable enough that the insole is stamped with “Drake vs Lil Wayne” like the previous pair the two have shown. Stay tuned on these kicks! Would you buy them?

Danny Ferry, Hawks President of Basketball Operations and GM

Atlanta Hawks owner Bruce Levenson has announced that he is selling his shre of the team after he admitted to writing an email two years ago that contained racially-insensitive remarks about fans. He was quoted saying.. 

“Over the past several years, I’ve spent a lot of time grappling with low attendance at our games and the need for the Hawks to attract more season ticket holders and corporate sponsors,” Levenson said in a statement Sunday. “Over that time, I’ve talked with team executives about the need for the Hawks to build a more diverse fan base that includes more suburban whites, and I shared my thoughts on why our efforts to bridge Atlanta‘s racial sports divide seemed to be failing.

“In trying to address those issues, I wrote an e-mail two years ago that was inappropriate and offensive. I trivialized our fans by making cliched assumptions about their interests (i.e. hip hop vs. country, white vs. black cheerleaders, etc.) and by stereotyping their perceptions of one another (i.e. that white fans might be afraid of our black fans). By focusing on race, I also sent the unintentional and hurtful message that our white fans are more valuable than our black fans.”

“I’m truly embarrassed by my words in that e-mail, and I apologize to the members of the Hawks family and all of our fans,” Levenson said. “To the Hawks family and its fans, you have my deepest gratitude for the past ten years. Working with this team and its extraordinary executives, coaching staff, and players has been one of the highlights of my life. I am proud of our diverse, passionate, and growing legion of Hawks fans, and I will continue to join you in cheering for the best team in the NBA.”
