Little Boy Dancing
Lets stop fooling ourselves, this is probably a grown ass midget lol. Come on now, I've seen plenty of little kids dance and not one was that polished. Hell, Michael Jackson probably wasn't even that good at 2 or 3 lol. Lets just cut the gig. What is this guy, 33, 34?? Lets keep it real, that's a grown ass man.
Jay-Z Interview On Big Boy's Neighborhood
They pretty much touched on all the shit that was touched on in the Tim Westwood interview with exception to the Dame Dash stuff and the Drake stuff.
Why Must I Cry (Tosh.0 Remix)
Tonight on Tosh.0 Reh Dogg got a Web Redemption and they pimped out his old classic Why Must I Cry. Check it out:
LMAO! I don't know which one is funnier! I loved the auto-tune and T-Pain adlibs, that was a nice touch. And those 2 broads with the violins could get pipe! Of course that has nothing to do with the funniness of the video, but I have a penis so I just figured I'd add it in there anyway.
Now lets take time to recognize the old classic after the jump.

Eminem - The Warning (feat. Mariah Carey)
Now is the real Slim Shady back or what?? If Relapse 2 sounds anything like that, I'm gonna put my $9.99 to the side now. Sick beat by Dre, murderous lyrics, incredible flow. Just so much Ether! I mean shit! I didn't even think Em could get down like that anymore (neither did Rick Ross who has GOT to be somewhere thanking the Lord this wasn't targeted at him).
I just wanna take some time out now to thank both Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon for inspiring to pen some one of his most damning diss records to date. You are both my heroes!

Random News Shit: SportsCenter Edition
Papi, Papi, Papi. When I was at work and saw this breaking news I was stunned! We knew Manny was juicing, but Papi was JUST saying how everybody should be tested and banned from the league if they test positive before the season. Shit is sad, but can we finally stop acting like everybody wasn't juicing in baseball??
And just in case you follow me on Twitter, yes, Bill Simmons is still on suicide watch lol. Can't wait for the next B.S. Report with JackO!
2) Lamar Odom To Stay With Lakers
Son of a bitch! Welp, looks like the Lakers remain in the driver seat in the league. Looks like he's got the 4 years he wanted BUT mostly likely its gonna be worth $33 million instead of the 3-year/$35 million they originally offered. Tough break nigga.
Anyway, Miami HAS to pull off that Boozer trade now for sure!
Ludacris' New Album Will Be Called 'Ludaversal'
Ludaversal?? Well that's pretty cheesy, but I still can't wait to hear it. Hopefully he drops off one of those classic mixtapes like he did last year with The Preview. I got my fingers crossed.
Oh, and Luda, a liquor brand? Seriously?? Its 2009, not 2004, that shit is over.
Joell Ortiz - Food For Thought
This shit is so sick! I honestly thought I was tried of these "Hip-Hop was my old girlfriend" songs, but this one is something fresh and new. Plus, the video takes it to a whole other level! That Twitter shit was kinda crazy, right? This is the kinda shit BET should be playing. Creativity is frowned upon at BET too thought so don't expect to see it happen.

Ass Out (No Homo)
Anyway, this is a pic of U.S. swimmer Ricky Berens at the World Swimming Championship in Rome on Monday. Apparently dude was stretching before the race and split his tight ass suit suit. I don't know if dude knew he was ass out before he jumped in, but its hard (no homo) to think he didn't. You know when your ass is out. Your brain just tells you so yeah, you know it.
Either way its hilarious lol.

Random News Shit: NFL Edition
1) Favre Decides To Remain Retired... For Now
I was washing dishes when the breaking news came on an said Favre made a decision. I KNEW he was gonna stay retired. If he was gonna come back, there would have been no wait. What happened last year?? He said he wanted to play so he played. Him having doubt made me think he probably didn't think he could do it.
Plus, he is a human, I'm sure he hears everyone talking about how much of a fool he is for not being able to figure out what he wanted to do. Welp, we'll see if he has a change of heart later on in training camp.
2) R.I.P. Jim Johnson
It was clear he wasn't going to be able to coach the Eagles defense this year, which is why Philly named his replacement this past weekend, but I had no idea it was this bad. It will be weird when not seeing him on the sideline or hearing about his defensive schemes when the Cowboys play their NFC East rivals. Very sad stuff.
Watch out for the Eagles this years because they're gonna dedicate the season to Johnson.
3) Plax To Testify Tomorrow
This is all so over done. Yeah he was wrong for having a gun, but he shot himself! Give the man a couple of days or months in jail and be done with it already! Dante Stallworth kills someone on accident and gets 24 days, Plax shoots himself on accident and he's looking at 1 or 2 years. Give me a break.
4) Merriman Debuts Blue Mohawk At Chargers' Camp
This isn't really news, but I just wanted to show everybody. I like Shawne as a player, but this kinda makes me wish the worse for him on the field lol.
Joe Budden's Escape Route Dropping Today??
Funnier Marbury Parody, Donnell Rawlings Or Lil Duval??
We got a battle of the funny going down this time in Either/Or so answer the question, which Stephon Marbury crying parody is funnier Donnell Rawlings crying over Dave Chappelle or Lil Duval crying over T.I.??
Tough one. Very tough! I'm leaning Lil Duval's way right now, but he got to do his after Donnell's was made so its that makes the decision more difficult. Ummm, I don't know.
Fuck it, I'm gonna go with Duval because he drooled on himself while crying lol.
Why???: Stephon Marbury Cries Live On Webcast
Okay, first off, no homo @ him sitting there all shirtless and looking all greasy and shit.
Anyway, WHY?!?!? What's the point of this?? I mean, I'm assuming the song reminded him of his father who passed away a couple years ago, but why cry online?? I know he had a whole 24 hour UStream thing, but if you cry you KNOW you're gonna get clowned. Just a dumb move.
Random News Shit: SportsCenter Edition
1) Vick Conditionally Reinstated
Here's my question: What more can this guy prove?? He committed a crime, but its one that has NOTHING to do with his character or the way his behaves day to day. I mean, its not like he was a rapist and now Goodell needs to see that he's done with his raping ways. He fought dogs! He went to jail and lost all of his money, do you seriously think he's gonna start another dog fighting ring?? Exactly! So like I said, what it there to prove??
2) Lincecum Throws Career-High 15 K's
There was a bet last night on ESPN's Streak For The Cash about who'd throw more strikeouts Tim Lincecum or Felix Hernandez (needless to say who won), but I missed it because the Yankees/Rays game ran long. That would've been an easy win though, this kid is a beast!
3) Wade Continues His Recruitment Of Odom In L.A.
The Lakers already stupidly lowered their offer to him so maybe Wade will bring him back to Miami. We all know Lamar wants to live on the beach and what better beach is there to live on than South Beach?? (Well, besides the beaches in Rio of course.)
Lets talk about the Lakers for a second though. What the fuck are they doing?? Does Mitch Kupchak really think the Lakers can repeat without Odom?? I hope not because they DEFINITELY can't.
4) Hornets, Bobcats Swap Okafor, Chandler
The Hornets had to get rid of Chandler. After stupidly trying to trade him last season shit was never gonna be the same again.
On another note, remember when "Dwight Howard or Emeka Okafor" was actually a discussion?? Awww, the good ol days lol.
5) Jonathan Bender Plots NBA Comeback
Believe it or not, Bender has done quite well for himself outside of basketball. He should stick to that because he wasn't that good before the injuries and I doubt he'll be better now.

Fabolous - Everything, Everyday, Everywhere (feat. Keri Hilson) Video
MTV still has a "Jam of the Week"?? I thought that went out with Bill Bellamy lol. Anyway I got some good and bad news.
The good news is that this song is still bangin' and if anybody smart was working at Def Jam these days it would've been his first single.
The bad news is that Keri Hilson is now in that stage of popularity where she's gonna be rocking weird, bad hairstyles that will make her look less attractive than she should be in an attempt to come off fashionable. Rihanna hit it, Ciara hit it, and now Keri hit it.

T.O. Weighs In On Vick Suspension
Of course this will get blown out of proportions tomorrow on ESPN, but the man does have a point. Was Vick not suspended for the past 2 seasons already?? I remember Goodell suspending Vick before he even went to trail. I don't even think training camp had started when that happened and now he wants 4 more games?? The man's life has already been ruined, let him play!
Now, on the other end, even if Vick got with a team, what's the chance he'd actually see much, if any, playing time during the first 4 weeks?? Chances aren't much so the 4 game suspension will be irrelevant at the end of the day.
Hmm, I wonder if this will make the Bills think of maybe bringing in Vick to back up Trent Edwards??

Jockin' Jay-Z, Jockin'-Jockin' Jay-Z
I was sitting around chillin' today and started thinking about who was the bigger Jay-Z Stan, Jim Jones or The Game. Both are huge Jay-Z fans disguised as rivals, but really they're obsessed. Anyway, it was a pretty close battle but then I remembered this list I read the other day of all the time The Game has made reference to Jay-Z in his rhymes. Take a look at all 75 (77 are listed but number 39 and 76 are the same lines as well as numbers 57 and 72) lines after the jump.

The Game Interview With Buddah Brothers
Now Game had me at the beginning when he was talking about going at the best lyrically and shit, but when he started talking about Jay being in the decline and that Jay should've got a mohawk and use auto-tune he lost me. He sounds completely silly! Jay's whole career has been about setting trends NOT following them.
And how is Hov in decline, his last album was hotter than Game's. That's right, American Gangster was hotter than L.A.X. AND its not even close. American Gangster was near classic, L.A.X. was Game's worst album.
Then if you take it to sales, Game is the one truly in decline. The Documentary went double platinum, Doctor's Advocate when platinum, and L.A.X. went gold.
There's really no way Game can justify what he was saying. Its sad really. He's gonna have to come up with some better shit than this if he wants to stop looking like a damn fool.
Jay-Z - Run This Town (feat. Rihanna & Kanye West)
Here it is, Jay-Z's first single off Blueprint 3!
I like it. I like it a lot BUT its not really first single material off first listen. I think it would've been better suited as a 2nd, 3rd, or 4th single...not a first. Especially not after you put out shit like Jockin' Jay-Z and D.O.A. because this is like going backwards almost. I just don't hear this burning up radio until September.
Then again, I didn't love T.I.'s single selection on Paper Trail and he had like 3 #1's so don't take too much stock in MY opinion. But for the record, Run This Town is FAR better than Live Your Life or Whatever You Like.
I understand the logic and see what Hov was aiming for. You got a track with Jay-Z and Kanye AND you throw Rihanna?? Its gonna be hard for radio to turn it away just because of the big names, not to mention she hasn't put anything out since the Chris Brown situation. If for nothing else it'll get played because RiRi is on it (even though she can't really sing and proves it big time on this song lol). So yeah, I get it.
Now as far as the song itself goes, like I said above, we know Rihanna can't sing, so that doesn't really take away from the track. He could've gotten M.I.A. or Santogold to do what Rihanna did and got the same result so I'm fine with it. As far as the verses go, I keep seeing people saying Kanye killed Jay on this shit, but I wouldn't go THAT far. Neither really KILLED it, so its hard to say one outshined the other to that degree. And of course the beat is sick!
Joe Budden - No Comment (BlogTV Rip)
This is a rip from Joe's BlogTV channel, but when I get a better version is available I'll post it.
Joey had some fuckin' lines in this shit, ain't it?? Sounds like he's taking it back to that old 2006 Joe Budden on this shit. Very ill and like I said above, as soon as the CDQ is out, you'll have it.
'Love King' Will Be The-Dream's Last Album
Stop it! Niggas really need to stop with this bullshit! Stop saying your upcoming album is your last album because 1) you're probably not that important 2) you're probably gonna end up making another one anyway. Artists with 2 or 3 albums out need not tell me they're quitting the game because most likely they haven't even accomplished enough shit for me to care. How are you gonna retire before you have longevity?? So you're gonna stop before you've even done shit?? This is like LeBron saying he was done in the offseason before his 3rd season. Niggas are hustling backwards! Did Michael Jackson announce he was making his last album?? Did Whitney?? Did Janet?? No, no, and no! Great artists don't do this because they don't have to.
Here's a new rule: If you've been in the game for less than 5 years, have less than 5 albums, and haven't gone platinum on every album, you are NOT allowed to announce your retirement. You now have to establish some sort of longevity, or even a real career, before you can publicly announce you're calling it quits.
And this doesn't just go for The-Dream, it goes for Game, Lupe, Jay-Z (though not as much since he has longevity), Lyfe, pretty much everyone who's "announced their retirement" from music.

Diddy Introduces Dirty Money
I don't know about this group name, its just weird to me. Sounds more like some local underground label trying to get on more so than a group featuring Diddy, an ex-Danity Kane member, and some other chick who looks like Estelle.
I ain't mad at them though, I just hope the music is good. Diddy said its gonna sound like nothing that's on the radio, but I could put money on it having auto-tune galore which is exactly what's on the radio right now. If they can make some of that cool ass Loose Ends, Soul II Soul shit then I am all for Dirty Money and back them 110%! I LOVE Hanging On A String and Back To Life!
Alfamega's Open Letter To T.I.
I wanted to post this yesterday but I had to rush out for work. Shouts to Xclusiveszone.net for doing all the heavy lifting for me on this one. Check out the 2 page later after the jump. As always, click to enlarge.
Aight so there you have it. I was with Alfamega for about 97% of this letter, but when he basically threatened to put out diss records for T.I. if he didn't call him the message was lost. What is putting out diss records gonna prove?? T.I. is in jail so he can't make diss records back to you so its an unfair fight. Besides, a T.I. vs. Alfamega lyrically battle would end a lot like the T.I. vs. Lil Flip lyrical battle ended.
Again, all the rest of the letter was all good and I was with Mega all the way, but putting out threats is just dumb. No man is gonna even consider you request if you're gonna follow it up with a threating ultimatum. Just not a smart move.
But this all goes to show why you shouldn't be going all out of the way for the next man. Mega did that and ended up getting shitted on in the end.
Well I guess we'll being hearing more about this a week from now.

Rick Ross - Face (feat. Trina) Video
Believe it or not, but this was actually one of my favorites on Deeper Than Rap because he banged something crazy in the car. That always gets you cool points even if the song isn't the greatest thing ever.
I loved the video too because those 2 chicks few super fine! Trina didn't look bad at all herself. And I see Ross may be trying to bring pink back. Not a bad look as long as its not over done like it was in 03-04.
Stop It!: A Defense Of Lil Wayne Calling MJ A Fag
Here's one for all the people who think I hate Lil Wayne:
Everybody saying Lil Wayne called Michael Jackson a fag, STOP IT! He was NOT freestyling, he didn't write it, none of that. Its a one songs little kids make up (there's problem thousands out there) and it was like a play on the Pledge of Allegiance. I mean, I don't know where the hell y'all niggas grew up, but I remember that song going back as far as elementary school! I'm 24 now so its been out there for some time lol.
If you (for some reason) don't remember the song, it went a little something like this:
"Coca-cola went to town
Mr. Pibb shot him down
Dr. Pepper sewed him up
they all got drunk on 7-up.
I Pledge allegiance to the flag
Michael Jackson is a fag
Pepsi cola burned him up
now he's drinking 7-up
7-up has no caffeine
now he's dating Billy Jean
Billy Jean left him
So he got a mohawk trim"
There you have it. I know y'all think Lil Wayne is the greatest thing to ever touch the mic, but he didn't make up that rhyme (and in fact, there's probably some around my age pissed that Wayne is getting all the credit for his creation lol).
And sorry I had to ruin it for a lot of people who thought they were breaking some kind of news by saying Lil Wayne called MJ a fag (even though he clearly said "you ain't never heard that song?" Right afterwards as to say "Hey guys, I didn't make that up"). A huge "my bad" is owed to all you fake reporters.
Now, unfortunately for Lil Wayne, most people don't know about this info I've shared (especially those mid-30s and up who never heard the song, but mainly those who won't care to find out the truth) so he'll just be getting lambasted by fans, media types, and people all the people who just don't like him for repeating some old ass song millions of kids across this nation have sang before him. Talk about taking one for the team lol.
And just in case you were wondering, yes this WILL stick with Lil Wayne from now on, no matter what. There will undoubtedly be people years from now who say Wayne called Mike a fag and go into tirades about Wayne himself being a fag for kissing Baby (which is indisputable) all because he repeated an old song from his childhood 2 months before Michael died that was "discovered" one after Michael died. Tough break nigga.
This is why I say rappers shouldn't use these new technologies because if you say the wrong shit, it doesn't go away. Ever!
Oh, and for the record, I am NOT condoning what Wayne said. All I'm doing is bringing some clarity to the situation because the VAST majority of people are treating this as if Wayne hit the studio and wrote a Michael Jackson diss record when he was just singing some dumb song on a video blog no one cared about.
The Dunk NOT Seen Around The World
You've got to be fuckin' kidding me! This is the tape that LeBron and Nike were trying so desperately to hide?!? LeBron barely got dunked on! BARELY! He got grazed by Jordan Crawford by being late on the help defense. I was under the impression the dunk was on some "Jim Carrey over Jack Black in Cable Guy" shit! That dunk wasn't about shit! That dunk literally happens 3 or 4 times in every NBA game.
I haven't been this disappointed and unfulfilled by something since I first watched a handjob porno. I mean the shear disappoint that flooded my brain is almost indescribable! And you know what?? I don't blame Jordan Crawford for this at all. Crawford had every right to be excited about "dunking on LeBron" but he didn't seem too hype about it in that video of him on First Take. Now we know why.
I blame Nike and LeBron. At this point we still don't know exactly what LeBron said to the Nike rep, but with the weakness of that dunk, I'm leaning towards him NOT telling that rep to hide the footage. I think 'Bron told him people were taping, and then the guy decided to take the tapes on his own BUT 'Bron still gets blame because he could've diffused this situation the next day! He could've made one of those videos like Chris Brown and put it out there if he didn't wanna call ESPN. He didn't, it blew up so he's just as much to blame as Nike.
This HAS to go down as one of the top 10 worst PR moves of all-time. And for the record, I did say this shit would leak eventually earlier this month lol.

Hood State Of The Union Ep. 1
Somebody SERIOUSLY needs to pick this up and put this on TV! Duval is a damn fool and Charlamagne is a fuckin' truth teller. We need more funny niggas and niggas keeping it real on TV. BET, bring back some credibility to your station and give these guys a show! Somebody. Anybody! Hip-Hop needs this!
Rick Ross - Maybach Music 2.5 (feat. DJ Khaled, Pusha T, Birdman, & Fabolous)
What's the possibility Ross has run out of concepts for new songs?? Maybach Music 2.5 AND there's a part 3 coming?? I say move on dawg. Decent song though, but it was kinda boring.
Young Buck - Pullin Me Back/Rock And Roll
Could I interest you in some new Young Buck??
This track is straight love! Not sure why he's still concerning himself with the whole G-Unit/Aftermath/Shady situation but if he keeps making heat like this I don't give a fuck what he's talking about.
Tight song. I especially loved the Rock bridge where he says, "In this trap spending time on this midnight train can you feel my pain..." The way he sang it was hot. This is just a good record.
D.O.H. (Death Of Hova)
I meant to comment on this the other day, but anyway this photo surfaced on Monday. I think it was gonna be a song, but after Jay-Z's interview last night with Tim Westwoood, I'm thinking its gonna be a full length mixtape. Hell, it was probably gonna be a full length mixtape from the beginning. The Game was already reaching in feeling insulted so you KNOW he plans to completely over do it when it comes to the disses. Expect to see Game battling himself again in a major way in the near future.
By the way, what's the over/under on time it takes Game to apologize to Jay??

Jay-Z Opens Up In Tim Westwood Interview
Okay here's the deal, this is just a snippet of the interview which Tim Westwood will run in its entirety this Saturday at 9pm. Three topics were touched on in the snippet: 1) His first single 2) the Chris Brown/BET rumor and 3) The Game.
First off, Off That with Drake will NOT be the first single for Blueprint 3, a track called Run This Town will. The new first single will feature both Kanye West and Rihanna. No word on why he changed the single or if Off That will still be on the album (but I'm sure it will be). After they talk about the single, Jay goes right into a MEAN ass verse from the track! I'm just praying it sounds as good as Hov made it sound. Oh, and word on the streets is its dropping this Friday.
Next up Tim asked Jay about the rumor that he told BET that if they let Chris Brown perform at the BET Awards he and Beyonce wouldn't. Jay-Z finally diffuses the rumor and talks about the ridiculousness of it (which is why I never spoke on it).
And lastly Tim asks Jay about The Game. This is when it gets semi-explosive and Jay called Game a groupie. This will undoubtedly spark mass hysteria within Game's mind and he'll probably have another diss record out tomorrow (hopefully its better than the first one). Can't wait for the rest of this interview!
