Random News Shit: All Over The Place Edition

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.
