1) 'Takers' Claims #1 Spot at the Box Office
When the numbers were first released, "Takers" was #2 to "The Last Exorcism" by about $300,000, but when the true numbers came out "Takers" was actually on top by about $150,000. Either way, in my mind, "Takers" was #1 regardless because it and "The Last Exorcism" made basically the same amount of money despite being shown in 668 less theaters nationwide. Per theater, "Takers" killed them.
And with that being said, I have no interest in seeing this movie. No real reason, just not interested.
2) Another Drake Album In 2010?
Slow down guys. It was a miracle that Drake's first album dropped at all, so let's not get our hopes up that the least album dropping label on Earth is gonna clean up its act and give us 2 in 1 year. It ain't happening. Cash Money, how about y'all focus on getting Nicki Minaj's album out this year and leave everything else alone?? Baby steps fellas.
3) Jay-Z & Yankees Team For Exclusive Apparel
And just when you thought Jay-Z had run out of ideas to make more money, BOOM! This apparel will ONLY be sold at Yankees Stadium and only through Sept. 14th. It's a damn shame I don't have family in New York anymore. Hmmm, my ex-girlfriend did tell me she's going to New York next week, though. I wonder if she'd grant me one last wish?? Fingers crossed.
Take a look at some of the goods courtesy of RapRadar. Some of that stuff would go great with the Hov "All Black Everything" Forces I don't own.
4) Full 'Dancing With The Stars' Cast Announced
Last week I told you The Situation was gonna be on the show (though I still wish it was gonna be Snooki), but here's a quick rundown of the rest of the cast:
Brandy Norwood, David Hasselhoff, Jennifer Grey, Kurt Warner, Margaret Cho, Kyle Massey, Audrina Patridge, Rick Fox, Florence Henderson, Bristol Palin and Michael Bolton.
Man, where's the Erin Andrews and Nicole Schegudgthzyrs?? What is DWTS without the hot ass??
5) Trick Daddy Working On 'www.thug.com 2'
The original 1998 classic still goes hard so thing is welcomed news. Hopefully this will help him get his mojo back, though his last album Finally Famous was pretty good. Unfortunately, there's no release date yet.
6) Ruff Ryders Records Is Now Ruff Ryders Indy
Look guys, it's over. The Ruff Ryder brand is gone, and it's never coming back. Never. Ever.
If they wanted to launch a new label, why didn't they just do it with a whole new name?? It's time to move on.

Okay, so the chippy one went at Brian Pumper the other day saying she never signed a release to be in his "Phattys Rhymes & Dimes 14" and blah blah blah. Well B. Pumper has stuck back!
I'm glad we're talking about this now because I was confused by this whole thing myself. The first time we saw Montana talking about doing porn she was with Brian. Then a totally different porno comes out (I'm assuming because I've never watched it) not starring Brian Pumper. Then once "Phattys Rhymes & Dimes 14" dropped it was apparent she did multiple flicks.
See, I thought his PRD14 was gonna be her big porn debut and that's where the confusion starts. Oh well, whatever, I admit I really wasn't interested in seeing either porno because she's not that attractive to me, so that's most likely the source of my confusion.
Anyway, I totally believe B. Pumper here, I mean, the lost bitch even talked about being in PRD14 in that first video interview. What an idiot. And you know I'll be patiently waiting for that Bitch You Signed On The Dotted Line lol.
My disdain for Soulja Boy has been well documented on this very site dating back to 2007. And even with all of that, when I heard Kat Stacks made a video about me, I was set to come to his defense. Unfortunately for the boy named Soulja, this video is indefensible. (Here's a close up of the direct messages on Twitter if you couldn't read them.)
Judging solely by the music this guy makes, we can't expect him to have much sense, but damn. This nigga got the bitch up in the bed cakin' and snorting lines and shit. And not just any bitch, Kat Stacks...bitch! Did he think he was immune to getting "the treatment" from Kat??
You know what?? Yes, I do think he thought that. In all honesty, I think Soulja Boy had a crush on her, thought she liked him back, and thought they were falling in love and he was about to change her hoin' ways (I guess he didn't read my post on her not only being a ho, but also having mental disabilities). Think about it, the dude is still only 20 years-old. We all know young niggas are susceptible to falling too hard for a bitch, especially a guy who pretty much missed all those high school years where guys fall too hard for the wrong girl. So instead of him falling for a chick, who doesn't like him back, at 16 or 17, he did it at 20.
You give me one other explanation that makes more sense then that. I'll wait. Matter of fact, no I won't, because you can't. There's no other explanation for why he felt comfortable enough around her where he'd fly her out first class, put her in a nice hotel room (that he stayed in with the bitch), slept with her, showered around her, and even exposed his cocaine habit to her. (And, no, we didn't actually see him snorting the lines, but if you found out the creator of such foolishness as Pretty Boy Swag and Goku had an affinity with coke, you wouldn't believe it??) Let's just face it, he fell for the bitch.
(Side note: Fabolous making that #StupidBoySwag TT last night was hilarious!)
1) Wyclef's Presidential Bid Denied
And just like that, it's all over. Doesn't it seem like having to have lived in Haiti for 5 years is something Clef should've known before announcing his candidacy?? I mean, we we're taught the requirements to run for the U.S. presidency in like 3rd grade, so you'd think Wyclef or his reps would've researched the requirements to be president of Haiti at some point before saying he's running.
Oh well, I hope you're happy Sean Penn and Pras!
2) DJ Khaled Signs With Cash Money
My first thought upon hearing this news: poor Ace Hood. I mean, it's not like his career was really taking off or anything, but now it really won't now that he's left stranded on Def Jam. Who's gonna convince L.A. Reid Ace should have another opportunity to drop a new album that won't sell now?? Y'all probably think I'm joking but I'm serious, I really feel bad for the guy.
At the end of the day, this is good news for DJ Khaled haters. We all know Cash Money isn't in the business of dropping non-Lil Wayne or Birdman albums, so We The Best Forever may never happen. Or just never get released.
3) Delonte West Suspended 10 Games By The NBA
Times are hard for ya boy Delonte. First he got arrested on gun charges, then he destroyed the Cleveland Cavaliers and made LeBron take his talents to South Beach, then he got traded to the T'Wolves, then waived a few days later, and now he gets a 10 game suspension by the NBA. Looks like good news only came through Gloria James' vagina once. Rim shot!
4) Twista Announces Release Date For Perfect Storm
The date is October 26th. My level of caring is 0.
I still got love for Twista, but if his most hardcore fan would have to admit he's fallen off. I thought Slow Jams and Overnight Celebrity were good for him, but in actuality its completely derailed his career into a pool of wannabe pop records. The Day After was still pretty good, but Adrenaline Rush 2007 was a disgrace, and Category F5 was just aight. Bring the real Twista back and then maybe I'll get interested.
5) Around The Horn's Jay Mariotti Arrested For Domestic Violence
Jay was arrested in L.A. for domestic violence last night at 4:30am which begs the question: what is it about L.A. that makes people wanna beat bitches up?? First Chris Brown, and now Jay Mariotti. Sad, sad.
Welp, whether Jay beat up his wife, or some hooker he met, it's still not worse than former ESPN Football Today podcast host Jeremy Green. I never wrote about it, but JG was arrested for possession of child pornography and narcotics back in July.
I initially heard the radio commercial version of this on 99 Jamz this morning, and the first thing i thought about was when Will "authorized a few last minute changes" on Uncle Phil's campaign commercial.
I pray Rudy Moise had nothing to do with this.
Pretty good video, but does anybody fit in less with their crew than Drake does with Cash Money?? It could be argued that Vanessa Carlton fit in more with Murder Inc. than Drake does with CMR. I'm just saying. Still a good video though.
More of a trailer than a teaser, but you get the point. Are you in that mood yet?? Well go pre-order the mixtape!
1) Chelsea Handler To Host 2010 VMAs
Well it's about time they picked a host, I was beginning to think they were just gonna go without one after consecutive bombs by Russell Brand. I'm not mad at the selection of Chelsea, she's quite funny, but with this little time to prepare (unless this has been planned for months and they're just announcing it now) I'm not sure she'll be able to top what Aziz Ansari did at the MTV Movie Awards.
I have a bigger issue with the VMAs though, because not only does it air the same day as the NFL kickoff, but it's gonna be on AT THE SAME TIME AS THE COWBOYS GAME! What the fuck MTV?? Now I have to make a decision: watch my Cowboys open up the season in primetime at Redskins Park or watch the VMAs??
This also happened to me in 2007 when the Cowboys opened up the against the Giants in primetime and the VMAs were live from Las Vegas. It's partly the NFL's fault for scheduling the Cowboys there as well, but the VMAs shouldn't be going up against NFL's big time opening day. What ever happened to having the VMAs on Thursdays?? Either way, I'm pissed because of course I wanna watch my 'Boys, but at the same time, I wanna watch the VMAs and make jokes on Twitter like on all the rest of the award shows. I don't know, we'll see how it goes, I guess.
2) Wyclef In Hiding After Receiving Death Threats
I never weighed in on this whole Wyclef/president of Haiti business, but the shocking part of this story, to me, is that Haiti's presidential election is in November. I was thinking their election was in 2011 or something. I was just talking about short notice with Chelsea Handler and the VMAs but shit! Clef JUST announced he was running a couple weeks ago, now he has to put his whole campaign and stuff together for an election in 3 months?? I know Haiti is far from the U.S., but damn.
I'm not saying Clef running is a good or bad thing, I'm just saying there should probably be a cut off date as to when someone can jump into a political race. Three months, son, three months! That's insane lol.
3) Shocker: Jay-Z Tops The Hip-Hop Cash Kings Again
Over the past 12 months, Forbes has estimated that Jay-Z has made a whopping $63 million. That's $33 million than #2, Diddy. And to make things even crazier, Beyonce made even more than Jay did! B brought in $87 million over the past year, making her the 3rd highest earning musicians overall. On that list, U2 ($130 million) is 1st and AC/DC ($114 million) is 2nd. Jay-Z is the only rapper on there, and he ranks 6th.
And exactly why does everybody want to be a rapper again??
4) Jersey Shore Introduces New Cast Member
Her name is Deena Nicole Cortese, and she'll be Angelina's replacement for "Jersey Shore" season 3. As you can see from the picture and video on MTV.com, she's not that hot, but then again, outside of Sammi, who is??
No word yet on what her Guido nickname is going to be.
5) Swizz Beatz Signs New Record Deal, Readies Album
Hopefully it's better than One Man Band Man.
6) Flo Rida Working On New Double Album
Clearly Flo Rida still hasn't gotten the memo that we don't even want one Flo Rida album, let alone two.
This shit is hilariously gay lol. Great concept, I wish I would've thought it myself. Oh well, shout out to King Bach and Sean G.
No need to even discuss this one, this is 100,000% fake. Clearly it was just promo for that retarded new movie "Piranhas 3D," but this bit was poorly executed. They should've kept Ving talking about the white lady from MTV telling him to tone it down and the radio show host should've kept trying to get him to talk about the movie. Once Ving started talking about the movie himself, everything fell apart and it just became retarded. They get points for trying, but overall this wasn't very funny.
Larry Bird and Scottie Pippen's opinions were fine to me, but Charles Barkley's still bothers me a bit. Look, we can all agree "The Decision" was a bad idea, but like Scottie said outside of that, it was his decision to leave Cleveland. I have no beef with anyone who said "The Decision" was dumb because it was, my problem is with people who are mad at him for leaving the Cavs, like Charles Barkley and that cunt Michelle Beadle from SportsNation. Get over it!
It's easy to roast Brian Pumper for his lack of talent as a rapper, but that other porno nigga and his weird looking boys started going at something near and dear to Pumper's heart – his jewelry. There's no doubt Brian has money because he's been doing porn since like 2002, but I wouldn't doubt those jewels are indeed fake. I mean, he wants to be a real rapper doesn't he?? Well these days real rappers usually have real fake jewelry, so maybe Brian just wanted to fit in with the Plies and Gucci Manes of the world? Makes sense to me. He did look like his feelings were hurt though.
After being beat out by Avenged Sevenfold's Nightmare by 3,847 albums last week, Eminem's Recovery still can't recover the #1 spot being best by 4,006 by Arcade Fire's The Suburbs this week. Recovery moves 152,073 in its 7th week and The Suburbs sells 156,079 in its first. What a great problem to have if you're Eminem. I'm sure his double platinum status next week will make up for it. Recovery has sold 1,980,373 copies thus far.
Also, Bun B's Trill O.G. debuts at #4 with 40,530 sold.
Eminem and Rihanna's Love The Way You Lie retains the #1 spot over on the Hot 100 this week, but there's no telling how long that will last as Taylor Swift new single Mine debuts at #3 after only a few days of its release.

50 is a fuckin' fool lol. It's funny this happened now because I was just watching those 50 video when he was humiliating Rick Ross and listening to those awful Shyne tracks he released earlier this year.
Anyway, Def Jam deserves this for still having Shyne under contract. I mean, of course signing him seemed like a good idea at the time, but once they heard the flaming turds he was producing in the studio on their dime, they should've took the Pete Carroll route and released him soon after like he was LenDale White. I'm just saying.
WOOOOOOOO!!!!
As I've said many times on this very website, Mystikal was my favorite rapper long before Jay-Z was, so watching this got me SUPER hype! Just hearing that flow brings back great, great memories of me really starting to get into music. I mean, it was one thing for me to be into Kris Kross heavy (which I was as a kid) and me wanting to hear as much Hip-Hop as I could after hearing Mystikal's verse on Make 'Em Say Ugh when I was in 6th grade.
Clearly I'm happy he's home and I can't wait for him to start dropping some shit. Fingers crossed for Mannie solely lending beats and not hooks.
Man, Antoine Dodson has blown up in a major way over the past week, ain't it?? He's the biggest thing on Auto-Tune The News, he has his own YouTube channel now, he has a website, a Zazzle page where he's selling merchandise, and so on and so on. I guess it's only fair to say he ran and told dat. Rimshot!
Well that was okay. I don't know it just seems like they burned a lot of calories making this video and the song isn't even all that funny. I mean, it's aight, but could've been much, much better.
(Side note: Don't mind me, my jealousy is doing the talking right now.)
Bring on Eva Mendes' sex tape!
Oh well, a man can still dream...
(Side note: What's up with Eva Mendes wanting her name to be pronounced "Ava" now?? I could be tripping, but it seems like it was always "Eva" and now I keep hearing her saying "Ava."
Wow, this was a pointless waste of a side note lol.)
I haven't posted anything by Shea Davis since June of 2008, but it's time. Oh yes, it is time! Check out my ninja Shea straight murderlizing Soulja Boy's Pretty Boy Swag.
So here's the question: which is worse, this or the original?? The battle of the suck is on!
Okay, so today we're pitting the Icelandic soccer team's "Going Fishing" goal celebration against the CFL player Dave Stala's "Foot Work" touchdown celebration. Let's do it.
This is just all kinds of awesome! They should be invited to the 2014 World Cup for their goal celebrations alone. And they're not new to this, they've made the highlight reel with their goal celebrations before.
Aight, now lets check out the competition.
Niiiiice! Most people can't do that with a round ball, let alone an oblong football. You gotta give that a 10.
So which is iller, the Icelandic team going fishing or the CFL player showing off his foot work??
Verdict: I'm gonna have to go with the Icelandic soccer team on this one. Dave's TD celebration was quite impressive, but the soccer team's was more creative and thus more ill. Close one, but yeah, I gotta go with the Iceland.
Yeah, it's definitely not the same without Betty there. Then again, I don't think it's so much better not being there as much as it's just a third girl not being there. They need to find a new girl to fill in while Betty is on maternity leave.
There's another even more powerful video after the jump. You'll enjoy it better, I promise.
Has anybody made the crying Indian commercial joke yet?? Are you sure? Because all I was gonna say is...
You know what? Nevermind.
I love Janelle Monae, so no joke will be made...for now. Cue the dramatic music!
Only Kanye could make this video.
And yes, that's all I have to say, a half of a video doesn't get a full review.
Remember when Megan Fox was hot?? Man, what happened?? Oh well, sweet video regardles. Somebody needs to teach me how to do that "person on fire" effect, I could really make good use of that knowledge.
