ebola

The hospital in Dallas,Texas where two nurses contracted Ebola is apologizing.

“Unfortunately, in our initial treatment of Mr. Duncan, despite our best intentions and a highly skilled medical team, we made mistakes. We did not correctly diagnose his symptoms as those of Ebola. We are deeply sorry.”

While the hospital expresses regret for not properly diagnosing Eric Duncan who died from Ebola there is now a higher concern about if the virus could spread throughout the US because the nurse who contracted Ebola from Duncan traveled by air between Cleveland and Dallas while having Ebola symptoms. Since the nurse contracted Ebola the 132 passengers on the plane with are being interviewed and a few schools have been closed in Dallas and Cleveland. Frontier Airlines has given six crew members 21 days of paid leave for safety.

The nurse is being treated in Atlanta and remains in “good condition.”

snoop-dogg

Snoop Dogg has apologized for clowning Iggy Azalea. Recently The Doggfather posted a meme on his instagram account showing an albino woman with cornrows “Iggy Azalea with no make up.” While Iggy has responded that Snoop is an ass and how disappointed she is when him because he’s always so nice to her, TI is said to have called Snoop and set things straight. Now bullying is not healthy at all but where is the thick skin? Rapper Iggy Azalea raps on her track with T.I. called No Mediocre that “She’s still in the murder business.” How can a woman who is in business to “murder” be offended by a crude joke on instagram? Comes with the fame honey!

lebron-james-doesnt-just-like-he-loves-the-new-lebron-12-shoes-from-nike

Forbes and it’s annual ranking has unveiled the top sports brands. For the third year straight Nike sits at the top and is worth about $19 billion. That $19 billion is a $2 billion dollar increase from 2013, and $2.5 billion more than ESPN. The question is who is responsible for keeping Nike on it’s throne? That answer is LeBron James. Sources say for the first time since 2007 someone other than Tiger Woods is at the top , and LeBron’s brand is worth about $37 million and brought in $53 million OFF the court last year alone from endorsements with McDonalds, Coca-Cola, Upper Deck, and Nike. The LeBron 12 was supposed to be released in October but due to cosmetic issues the shoe will be released sooner than later.

twitter-logo

Twitter is now suing the Department of Justice and FBI for the right to release information on the government’s surveillance of it’s users. The goal for the lawsuit is to achieve more flexibility regarding what the company can say about the government requesting personal information of Twitter users. Twitter Inc. claims their First Amendment rights are violated by being prohibited to share the number of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act court orders the receive to give out personal information for national security reasons. Back in April Twitter sent their Transparency Report to the FBI but the Department of Justice rejected the report because disclosing information on national security letters is prohibited by federal law.

Fraud

A woman out of Georgia has been accused of filing a fake Georgia state tax return. Brigitte Jackson filed a return claiming she was owed over $94 million dollars. LOL! She never got her check and contacted the state revenue about the delay. After some calls were made agents cut her a check and told her to go to a bank inside of a supermarket to cash it. The entire tax sting was caught on tape. Jackson’s cousin Darrius White also allegedly reported $99 million in income and has been charged. Did they really think they would get away with this???

kevin-durant-8

Some interesting news is bubbling out of the pot today my friend. Have you ever worn Under Armour or know an athlete who has? Well Under Armour just made a power move on the NBA’s most valuable player. Kevin Durant was in a contract with Nike but that contract has now expired. Moving forward Kevin has now been offered a 10 year deal from Under Armour ranging between $265-$285 million. Kevin Durant is signed to Jay Z with Roc Nation Sports and will receive a stock in the company and other incentives. On the side Nike can still and has the right to match the offer for Durant. Sounds like a really BIG deal! 

tip

In other news relating to #Ferguson rapper T.I. decides to write a 2 part open letter ..Straight out of Atlanta rapper T.I. has chosen to express two open letters about the situation in Ferguson, Missouri. T.I. directs one to America and the other to “his people”.  T.I also released a song called New National Anthem featuring Skylar Grey which can be heard —> HERE!! <— You can read T.I.’s letters by going to Soul92Jams.com and going through the headlines to find the story. 

lupe

Lupe Fiasco is giving fans the opportunity to get a personalized 1 verse song for $500. There really is NOT a catch to this either! All you have to do is send him an instrumental and pick the mood and subject. The rapper will then record a verse just for you. Okay so maybe there is one small catch.. you have to pick up the physical copy of the CD which only has that one song on it and exchange that $500 dollars cash only. You have to sign a “usage contract” also when you pick up the cd. Hmm…are you going to send in your instrumental?

Could the timing have been better or was this just…a nice thing to do?

#McFactz: A sprinkle of #News..

nas

Nas makes his way into the news this week! The Queens Bridge rapper had an interview and spoke on Hip Hop, Tupac, and Biggie Smalls. The MC goes on to say that the death of both rappers hit him really hard because he knew them both but knew Biggie a little more. Nas feels that what the two rappers did for the game in an art form can never be redone, and they can never be replaced. Also, the Nas said that when both rappers passed away he thought it was the end of rap…How did you feel about Hip Hop after losing Tupac and Biggie??

jcole

J. Cole took a trip to Ferguson, Missouri to show support for the protesters seeking justice for Michael Brown. J. Cole didn’t tell anyone or use promotion before going to the location but he was captured by residents on camera. J. Cole showed love to the people in the city and spoke to people in the crowds. A fan asked if J. Cole would take a picture with him and J. Cole simply said “I’m not here for that, but I’ll give you a hug.”  Pretty decent of the man. 

kidink

Kid Ink reportedly was arrested in Las Vegas early on Saturday morning for disturbing the peace. Not many details on the subject but the rapper was taken into custody after a scuffle broke out outside of a 1Oak nightclub. Supposedly the woman the rapper was with instigated an incident and her belligerent behavior got the attention of security. Both Kid Ink and his lady friend were taken to jail…

Yeah okay cool..since that didn’t seem believable to most..”The Carters” decided to drop the video trailor for “On The Run” …”Run” whatever you wanna call it! Anyway great cover up..or great timing for the hype right? I know I’m going to see it!

#McFactz: Have You Had Some Today?

Looks like a few things are buzzing around! I’m sure you have heard…

photo (6)

My big head is full of thoughts! Hehehe! Lets start with Mimi from Love and Hip Hop ATL and her sex tape with Nikko. Did you see clips??! Honey that was pure entertainment! I wonder what her daughter Eva will think..and wasn’t Mimi just talking down to Miss Joseline on the first season? Does anybody remember that Joseline had her own “footage” .. well now! Could Mimi want to be just like Joseline? I mean she did get implants...just like Joseline..and now has a flick out..just like Joseline. Can we all in unison say … “#HEYMAID!”

August Alsina’s album dropped. Did you cop that?? Ya boy went on 106 & Park and completely blanked on one of the hosts for asking about Trey Songz. Is it me or are men acting more like women on camera these days? I like August, but ….he could have handled that differently. That’s not real, that’s disrespectful.

50 Cent says that Diddy’s new track “Big Homie” is garbage! Have you heard it? Also 50’s new album Animal Ambition will be released June 3rd, followed by Street King Immortal. 

Remember Chingy? “Right Thurr?” Well that transsexual that claimed to have an affair with him LIED and the damage cost him his record deal. SHEESH!

Drake and Cash money are reportedly being sued by the estate of jazz musician Jimmy Smith for illegal use of copyrighted material. For those who don’t know.. It’s the opening monologue on Pound Cake from his Nothing Was The Same album.

Gucci Man is reportedly negotiating a plea deal on federal gun charges to avoid jail time…uh…hope that works out for him! Seriously!

There’s more but I’ll share that with you later!

You’ve had enough …for now 🙂

Birdman gave Justin Bieber a new Bugatti …I wonder what that means. That was very generous of him! 

Nick Cannon expresses publicly that he was once closely associated with the gang known as The Bloods.

Bangladesh (Producer) says that Gucci Mane doesn’t need jail, but might might need something else ..

Lil Boosie’s plans to travel and perform have been postponed due to parole restrictions! 

Rapper Diamond seems to be prepping a comeback ..new look! I check for her because she actually could deliver rhymes back in the day…with Crime Mob.

Nicki Minaj is looking really good lately .. have you seen her??? 🙂

SQUASHED BEEF! NEW MUSIC! Dj Kay Slay feat. 50 Cent & Fat Joe – Free Again

20140125-112533.jpg

NEW YORK CITY! Now this might not be what everybody wants to hear, but its different from the same ol’ same ol’, you can’t knock that. You thought it was over for the sound but don’t forget where Hip Hop Mecca is! The south has had reign over radio waves with the party scene for a while but you need balance in this industry. Looks like the North side is creeping back regaining power strategically. Everything isn’t one big party! Get back to talking that real on record! Not just dreads swinging and turning up every few bars! Exercise real lyrical talent and story telling!

With a squashed beef behind them 50 cent and Fat Joe get back to that grit and grime taking shots and never afraid..like true New Yorkers! Cocky and confident..but is the first take strong enough? Was this just a lure to get you pulled into what has been cooking up? You never know what the next move is. Im sure you didn’t see this coming! What next?

Rick Ross Wins Case Against Freeway Ricky Ross/ Bound 2 Remix

rickross

Looks like Rick Ross (born Williams Leonard Roberts) got this one! After the original Freeway Ricky Ross took the entertainer/mogul to court for using his name the judge decided to rule in the rappers favor. Rick Ross is protected under the First Amendment. If you are not so sure what that is and what it states you just might want to go do your homework! The case began in 2010 and went to a higher supreme court after the case was ruled “untimely” because the REAL Rick Ross knew about the rapper since 2006. Talk about bad timing! The California appeals court judge Roger Boren sided with Roberts and says that while the rapper’s stage career and persona was influenced by Ross, they are not the “very sum and substance of Roberts’ work.” Right of free speech and free expression.
