Joaquim Phoenix Trying To Rap

I’m not sure if this is a career move, or just a drunken karaoke moment.

I’m assuming it’s the latter, since he falls off the stage eight bars later.

The Rev. Michael P. Williams, pastor of a church in the Third Ward, believes Drank is deliberately marketed to inner-city communities.

First came Red Bull and Monster Energy, giving a high-octane boost to late-night parties and study sessions.

Now the anti-energy drinks have arrived, carbonated beverages that promise to help you “slow your roll” or “lean with it.”

But with their hip-hop-inspired advertising campaigns, Drank and Purple Stuff are generating a buzz that is anything but chill.

“I’m in many, many rappers songs. And I know them. 50 Cent is sort of a friend of mine. I mean, he likes me. He just did a show. It was a copy of ‘The Apprentice.’ It will fail because he’s not Trump, but he’s actually a nice guy. And P. Diddy did a show which, by the way, I think bombed, but it was a copy. I wrote him a little note, ‘Good luck with the copy.’”

Rick Ross For Obama

It;s nice to see all the rappers who are stepping up fpr Obama. To me any rapper who doesn’t speak out encouraging their fans to vote for Obama for president isn’t real hip hop.

The Truth About Hipster Rap

BMF Brothers Get 30 yrs Each!

Kids take notice everybody wants to walk the gangster walk but nobody wants to pay the consequenses. This is how it ends if your lucky most likely it’s an early trip to the cemetary.

Brothers Demetrius “Big Meech” and Terry “Southwest T” Flenory were sentenced to 30 years in prison on Friday Sept. 12, for running the cocain ring known as The Black Family Mafia. BMF is an organization that hailed out of Detroit and distributed cocain and other drugs throughout the US. It has been said that rapper Young Jeezy among many other music industry types was associated with BMF.

Via AHH:

Demetrius and Terry were apprehended in 2005 and indicted under the CCE (Continuing Criminal Enterprise) law, which like RICO charges carry life sentences.

Under the federal prison system, there is no parole option.

Seeking to avoid spending the rest of their natural lives in prison, the brothers pleaded guilty in November 2007 to the CCE charges and laundering drug money in hopes of serving the minimum 20 year sentence.

However, evidence presented by prosecutors resulted in 30 year sentences for both men. BMF was founded by the brothers in Detroit during the late 1980s.

After quickly securing valuable contacts with international coke suppliers, the organization grew to a nationwide criminal conspiracy within a few years.

The group began to draw unwanted attention from federal agents in 2003 once they established a high-profile operation in Atlanta, where they erected billboards, held lavish parties, created DVDs, and boasted of their connections with rappers Young Jeezy and Fabolous.

Also notable in the organization’s downfall was Meech’s involvement in a brazen 2003 shootout in the Buckhead nightclub section of Atlanta that left two men dead, including Sean “Diddy” Combs’ bodyguard Anthony “Wolf” Jones.

In 2005, agents raided several key BMF operations in Georgia, Michigan, Florida, South Carolina, Tennessee, Missouri, and California.

To date, those raids have resulted in over 150 indictments of BMF members or associates, effectively dismantling the drug empire.

According to authorities, these convictions of BMF’s top members end a 15 year investigation into the Black Mafia Family’s criminal enterprise.

At their peak, Demetrius (age 40) and Terry (age 38) Flenory are estimated to have controlled a cocaine empire worth $270 million.

A Grafton woman has been arrested and booked for failing to pay her library fines. Heidi Dalibor, 20, told the News Graphic in Cedarburg she ignored the library’s calls and letters as well as a notice to appear in court. Still, she was surprised when officers with a warrant knocked on her door, cuffed her and took her to the police station to be fingerprinted and photographed. Police Capt. Joe Gabrish saied officers follow the same procedure with every warrant. The incident cost Dalibor about $30 for the overdue paperbacks “White Oleander” and “Angels and Demons” and her mother nearly $172 to get her out of custody.

Gay Rapper Revealed!!

J- Swift On Crack Off Crack

New video with J-Swift rapping (?) about his crack days with hell of crazy footage from his smoking days. Definitely not for the tame!!

We told you Tuesday about the man posing as an alleged ‘porn inspector’ in Longmont, Colo., using the claim to attempt to get free videos. Today, a suspect has been arrested.

The Longmont Times-Call reports police have arrested 33-year-old Andrew Libby of Longmont “on suspicion of two counts of impersonating a police officer, child neglect, possession of a weapon by a previous offender, possession of an illegal weapon, possession of less than one ounce of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.”

Police also have searched his home, finding an illegal knife, a gun (which Libby is not supposed to possess because he’s a convicted felon), a private security badge and a gun safe with as-of-yet-unknown contents, the paper reported.

The Smoking Gun has Libby’s (latest) mug shot as well as other documents in the case.

More Lieing Ass Rappers

Ok kids take note all your favorite rappers who tell story after story of alll the Kilo’s they moved etc are all lieing!! Case in point ex correctional officer Rick Ross

Via TheSmokingGun:

Apparently desperate to distance himself from any affiliation with law enforcement, the rapper Rick Ross has recently denounced as fake photos purporting to show him in a former career as a Florida prison guard. But Department of Corrections (DoC) records show that Ross, whose raps detail the Miami gangster lifestyle and his supposed days trafficking cocaine, did, in fact, work as a correctional officer for 18 months. Ross (real name: William Leonard Roberts) was appointed a prison guard in December 1995 at a salary of $22,913.54, according to the below personnel record, which was provided to TSG by Jo Ellyn Rackleff, a DoC spokesperson. The rapper’s social security number is identical to that of the jail guard. According to the official document, Ross was earning $25,794.34 when he left the department in June 1997. After graduating from the DoC training academy, Ross was assigned to the South Florida Reception Center in Dade County (the lockup is one of three statewide that serves as an intake facility for new prisoners).

Out here in Cali one time is cracking down on the new hands free cell phone law, hence this new invention.

Inventor Cary Sperry has an answer for California drivers who can no longer make or take calls now that its illegal to use a hand-held cellphone while driving.

When I heard the news, I thought: ˜Gas is expensive, Bluetooth is expensive, lots of folks have to do business on the phone while theyre sitting in traffic  what would I do if I had a job? Sperry told reporters, who gathered outside the storage space currently serving as home to his unnamed start-up company, as well as him and his seventeen cats.

Sperrys patent-pending innovation features jaw-strap technology that turns your existing cellphone into a hands-free device  simply by taping it to your head.

I created this not so much to help my fellow man as to hopefully make a shitload of money for me, Sperry told reporters.
