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?

Good news for Gucci Mane! His 39 month jail sentence will include the year he has served so far! An entire year has been shaved off of Gucci’s jail time. The decision has been reversed by an Atlanta judge and he will be released in December 2016. Gucci plans on still releasing projects from jail leading up to his return to freedom.

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.”

Okay so Chris Brown is on the cover of Billboard magazine! Pretty much Chris has come to the realization that his past actions were pretty bad on his character and his music. The headline on the magazine reads “Maybe I Was Out Of Control.” and Chris goes on to elaborate on jail, Rihanna, and his new album X coming soon. Chris was quoted saying …

“I realize that what I do for a living opens my life to public scrutiny and that I have a responsibility to everyone because of that exposure… I can say that I am only human and I have made mistakes. I can say that I try to live my life in the most true, honest way that I can. I am not perfect, no one is. No one is harder on me than me. No one can please everyone. No one can live in the past and expect to grow. I have been moving forward and hope that I am not defined by just a few moments in my life but all of the moments that will make up my life.”

Chris will be releasing his sixth studio album X on September 16th!

migossssss

The Migos are living up to their song “Fight Night” after getting into a brawl with fans at a recent show in Nashville. The trio was performing when sources say a member got their gold chain snatched while he was on stage. Things turned ugly and police were eventually called to the scene. No one was injured.

We all know G-Unit is back together now with the exception of The Game and Olivia. 50 Cent decided to air out his former member Olivia by saying that she used to sleep with Missy Elliot. 50 decided to go on The Breakfast Club and during his sit down the Queens native told Charlamagne ..

“Nah, I didn’t have no problem. Missy started hitting it. If you really wanna know. See, it’s her fault for actually saying that to you. Trust me.”

50 sure knows how to stay relevant. Check his recent interview with G-Unit HERE!! <–

Kendrick Lamar’s Section.80 was his breakout project into Hip Hop and a track that stood out was a track called “Rigamortis.” Jazz musicians Willie Jones the Third and Eric Reed claim that “Rigamortis” is a rip off from their track called “The Thorn” that was released in 2010.

To sum up what has been going on with Kevin Durant..his contract with Nike expired and Under Armour offers KD a huge about of money to sign with them. Nike has the chance to resign Kevin but has to match Under Armour’s offer. Nike was taking their time until Jay Z added pressure to Nike to hurry up with their offer. Nike matches the offer, Kevin Durant resigns with Nike for a cool $300 million dollar contract. Kevin Durant is signed to Jay Z under Roc Nation Sports which is why the story is amazing. Now adding to the amazement Nike is also offering Durant $25 million dollars after he retires. Perfect timing while KD’s new sneaker hits stores on September 10th!

#McFactz: This Tea Is SCANDALOUS!

Leave a comment

ceelo

Chile…..Cee-Lo Green gets three years probation for his two year old ecstasy case. Don’t know what happened? WELL …a woman filed a sexual assault charge on him in 2012 saying the two went out and she was with Cee-Lo drinking and the next thing she knew she was waking up in his bed. Honey…The woman can’t remember a thing and says that Cee-Lo slipped her ecstacy. Cee-Lo plead not guilty to the charge. He chose to plead no contest which allows him to maintain his innocence but he still has dues to pay. The man has to perform 360 hours of community service and attend 52 AA meetings with a private therapist. Honey watch your drink at the bar….OKAY?!

oprah

Good ol’ Oprah better be working on that pimp hand. She will be portraying Richard Pryor’s grandmother Marie Carter in the upcoming biopic on Richard’s life. Richard Pryor was raised by his grandmother, but the grandmother was a madam of a whorehouse. Oddly enough Richard’s mother was a prostitute in his grandmothers whore house. SCANDAL you say? Honey I agree! Omar Epps will be playing Richard Pryor instead of Nick Cannon. Recently this role was switched. Will you see the movie when it comes out? I will! I can’t wait to see Oprah smack one down! Dramaaaaaaa!

beyoncevma

Beyonce’s father Matthew Knowles is making news for hinting that the Beyonce, Jay Z, Solange elevator drama was calculated and done to generate sales. Honey I wouldn’t doubt it! Matthew went on down to Houston’s 104.1 radio station and dropped some tea. He was quoted saying …

“I know, from experience, because we’ve done this, there’s a tour going on,” he said, referring to Bey and Jay’s On the Run tour. “So you have to sometimes ignite that tour—it’s called a Jedi mid trick! The Jedi mind trick fools you a lot of time. So things you see sometimes are [poof noise].”
He also says…

“[They needed something to] ignight that tour. It’s called a Jedi mind trick. A Jedi mind trick fools you a lot of times,” he said. “All I know is everyone is talking about it. Ticket sales went up, Solange’s album sales went up 200 percent…”

NONE OF THIS SURPRISES ME! Dang Beyonce ..yall already are rich! How are you guys gonna make us cough up more bread? Hmph…anyway that’s over and done with!

Honey did you see the 2014 MTV VMA’s last night????? If you didn’t you missed a good eye blessing! Let’s get right on into it…kicking the show off was Ariana Grande with her song Break Free and then transitioned into Nicki Minaj performing Anaconda! Nicki came out in what looked like an ode to Poison Ivy. There was no six foot long anaconda that was rumored to be out during the set, but there sure was a WHOLE lot of BACK from BABY …OKAY?! Next after Anaconda came “Bang Bang” and Jessie J proceeded to sing her heart out with Ariana Grande, but this time Nicki Minaj had a wardrobe malfunction which she held together very nicely. There was a ghost whispering some where saying “let it go” as she held on to her dress for dear life.

The evening was pretty much decent. I must give an applause to Iggy Azalea for not moving around to much. Nobody really wants to see her dancing so her team did a good job of keeping that toned down. Iggy sticks to poses when she performs. Chile….moving on Usher came out dancing like a machine honey. I wanted to jump into tv land and give him oxygen myself. The R&B singer delivered a great performance of She Came To Give It To You and brought Nicki out for the feature.

Is is just me or did Rita Ora seem very “hype” last night? Wonder what that was all about. Taylor Swift gave some yawns although the crowd loved her performance. There could have been more excitement, and what’s with people wearing leotards. At one point I thought I was watching gymnasts at the Olympics. A great highlight from last night had to have been Jim Carey and Jeff Daniels serving Dumb and Dumber.

There were some moments when the urban community probably turned the channel but everyone was anticipating the Beyonce performance. Beyonce came through and did songs off of her album but teased everyone with not even 10 seconds of Flawless remix which would have been the best part of the night for the women. Beyonce pranced on stage, threw her hair, and let everyone know who Queen B is. Of course MTV put the camera on Blue Ivy and Jay Z during Beyonce’s performance and you could see that Blue is the spitting image of both of her parents but don’t you think shes really starting to look more like Jay Z now? Anyway Jay Z presented his wife with the Michael Jackson Vanguard Award and had Blue Ivy on his arm.

The two kissed to show the world their marriage is fine but it kind of seemed awkward like the Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley kiss that seemed like a publicity stunt.

…….Remember that? Beyonce teared up when she accepted the award, said a few words and dashed off the stage. Chile…I needed more drama and scandal but I was satisfied with what I saw! Mtv you sure did come through! Yasssss!
