MSNBC Suspends Mark Halperin For Calling Obama A Dick
And really, it happened on "Morning Joe," who exactly did he offend with his statement? You think kids are tuning into "Morning Joe" now that they're out of school? (I doubt it, but even if they were, I think "dick" is about the tamest thing you could hear out of a kid's mouth these days.) Actually, the majority of us (definitely including myself) wouldn't have even known it happened if he wasn't suspended. Besides, isn't it somebody's job to have the bleep button ready? If this were the BET Awards, this whole sentence would've been bleeped just 'cause.
Then again, MSNBC once upon a time suspended their most popular personality, Keith Olbermann, for well, being Keith Olbermann. It's too bad Mark doesn't work for Fox News because he'd definitely be in line for a promotion.

Thursday Billboard Update - 6/30/11
As with the Billboard 200, the Hot 100 also has a new #1 and it's Pitbull's Give Me Everything featuring Ne-Yo and a bunch of folks no one cares about. Despite being one of the most successful Hot 100 performers, this is Pit first ever #1 single. Anyway, debuting at #8 this week is Maroon 5's Moves Like Jagger featuring Christina Aguilera, and entering the top 10 is Lil Wayne's How To Love (13-10).
INN: Turn Right USA Makes The Most Racist Ever
I'm not quick draw on the Race Card, but gotdamn. Part of me feels like this is an elaborate joke that is working, and the other part of me feels embarrassed. (Okay, I won't lie, a small part of me is disappointed they didn't get a white girl with rhythm and some ass (shots) to play the stripper.) But that's not the point!
Well hopefully it is a joke, but I just...I just...I just don't know anymore.
Get It On!: "The Car Show" Starts July 13th
As many of you already know, I'm a huge Adam Carolla fan, so I'm definitely going to support "The Car Show" (especially since I missed "The Adam Carolla Project" back in '05), but gotdamn do I have a major conflict of interest Wednesday nights at 10. I'm obviously already watching "The Challenge: Rivals" at 10, and of course at 11 when "Rivals" repeats I'm watching "The Daily Show" and "The Colbert Report." This is almost as bad as the NFL constantly schedule the Cowboys as the first Sunday night and making me choose between my Boys and the VMAs (if there's a season, this will be the 3rd time in 5 years they've pulled this bullshit).
Oh well, I'll figure it out, but in the meantime, check out another great promo for "The Car Show" after the jump.

Cory Gunz - Outta My Mind

Anyway, when is that Cory Gunz mixtape dropping??
Cole Summer: Episode 1
Bitch he about to blow up! You gotta love J. Cole. Oh, and who is that nigga Mike Shaw? Does he do stand-up? Dude was hilarious! Hopefully he'll be in all the Cole Summer episodes leading up to the album.

Bow Wow - Sell My Soul (Unreleased)
Illest. Bow. Song. EVER! Why in the FUCK wouldn't they have released this? My best guess is because of the jab at Sony, but I doubt it because he's been with Cash Money/Universal for awhile now. Oh well, this record is dope.
The Lonely Island - We'll Kill U
This is pretty much just a rip-off of Jon Lajoie's I Kill People, but it was still kinda funny.
Eric Stanley - Nate Dogg Tribute
Damn, that was dope! If he would've put that out months ago BET might've flew him out (like they did Karmin Covers) to help them with that struggle tribute they did for Nate.
Big Sean Tells How He Met Kanye
I already heard the story (can't remember on what though), but I thought it'd be interesting if you never heard how he met Kanye and got a deal.
Free Talking About Free's Ass With Tigger
If you just realized Free had ass Sunday night, you either an idiot or were a little kid back when 106 & Park started because that ass was always the highlight for the show for me. Aww man, especially when she used to wear jeans or pants. My God *Pusha T voice*! You can't get an ass that perfect via ass shots or implants, I'm sorry (though I'm sure a million girl went out to get some ass shots after see her an Tracee Ellis Ross Sunday).
If you want to re-live Free's ass while listening, I left it for you after the jump. Oh, and I'd strongly suggest you go ahead and "click to enlarge" when you get there.
Karmin Covers Parody
If you watched the BET Awards' pre-show Sunday night, you saw a couple of white folks right before selected commercial breaks singing hit records like Look At Me Now and 6 Foot 7 Foot. Well they're actually a super popular YouTube group named Karmin Covers, that is most popular for their cover of Look At Me Now. I told yall this is the Year Of White People Reciting Rap Lyrics.
Anyway, here a quick little parody of them by Affion Crockett.

Eat Dinner With Barack...& Joe!
I guess this is supposed to be an addition to the dinner with Barack, but if you ask me, they should've switched it around. The way they have it now it's like entering a contest to have dinner with Jay-Z and then finding out Memphis Bleek will also be there. I guess you should be more excited... but not really.
It should've been "Win a dinner with Joe Biden" then they should've thrown Barack in there to make it more enticing. And that's not to put Joe down, I'm sure having a candid conversation with him would be fucking awesome, but you'd think they'd pull more star power our of their ass for a contest like this. Oh well, sign me up anyway!
Eminem - Space Bound Video
I'm not sure why they held onto this video for so long, but I'm glad its out because it is amazing. And that's not to mention it was my favorite song on Recovery. It's a shame they can't show it on TV because he blows his brains out twice, but it's GOT to be nominated for something at the VMAs.

Blind Side 2? The Jimmy Butler Story
If there was ever gonna be a sequel to "The Blind Side," there's no doubt it would be about Jimmy Butler (though I'm sure much like "The Hangover II," everyone would idiotically criticize the storyline for being too similar to the original despite that being the whole point). Dude got kicked out of his house by his cunt of a mom at the age of 13 and bounced around for years until finding a home and family his senior year. Jimmy then went off to junior college where was began to be recognized by scouts at tops schools and landed a scholarship with Marquette. A few year later, and now he's in the NBA. You know his biological mother is PISSED! You gotta love it.

Will.I.Am Reads His Lyrics...While He's Performing
I know Will is uber success and all making bullshit music, but this nigga is a failure. How can't he memorize those simple ass lyrics of his? It's not like he's spitting Busta Rhyme's verse from Look At Me Now, he's saying some bullshit that begins with "This is that original. This has no identical." Really Will, that was too much to not read off the BlackBerry? Drake, you're officially off the hook. Congrats.
(Side note: No, I don't have any opinion on buddy with the hot pink boy shorts and knee high socks. Matter of fact, I'd like to pretend this all didn't happen.)
Why???: Athletes Rapping
This is reason #1,062 why the NFL lockout needs to end immediately, and reason #453 why the NBA lockout better be brief. As you know from guys like Soulja Boy, Lil B, and RiFF RAFF, rapping isn't for everyone. Unfortunately Chris Johnson and Lou Williams have yet to receive that memo. Let's proceed with CJ's song Act On Deck (and no I have no idea what that means either so don't ask):
CJ is clearly the Jewels...I mean Allen Iverson, of the NFL, so maybe it's a good thing we're in a lockout because you know Dictator Goodell (the same guy who can't get the players and owners to agree on how to split up billions and billions of dollars) would surely suspend him for his stupid Act. Somebody get this man a pair of cleats and a football field ASAP.
Apparently Soulja Boy Signed RiFF RAFF
I understand times are hard, but no grown man should be this excited to sign to a label that hasn't produced any successful artists in its history. Then again, this is the guy who felt he should use MTV in his name despite only appearing on 2 episodes of "From G's To Gents," so we know we're dealing with a crazy person.
If you can't get enough of terrible rap, ya boy RiFF put out a new shitty freestyle the other day where I believe he admits to snorting coke about 45 seconds in. Catch that after the jump if you care (though I'm sure you don't).
Kevin Hart On The Tonight Show With Jay Leno
You gotta love Kevin Hart! I'm glad he was able to recovery after that failed opening Wayne Brady/NSYNC joke. That shit was awful. Anyway, part 2 is after the jump.

A Few Thoughts On The NBA Draft
Estelle - Break My Heart (feat. Rick Ross) Video
I don't post many non-me music video, but I love this song so much I just had to. It's gonna be awkward when YouTube delete Estelle's video off of her own channel though (they've done it to plenty artists before).
Random News Shit: All Over The Place Edition
Go ahead and toss this in the "Proof Ron Artest is insane" bucket. Metta World Peace? I... I... I just don't know anymore.
(Side note: It'd be hilarious if Ron Ar...ugh, Metta World Peace's jersey skyrocketed to the top of the NBA Store sales list.)
2) Missy Elliott Diagnosed With Graves Disease
I probably should've did some research, but I have no idea what Graves Disease is, but it has "disease" in it thus it can't be a good thing. Missy is one of the all-time great female artists, so I hope she gets better and gets back to making hits eventually.
J. Cole Gets A Release Date
Jermaine's long-awaited debut album Cole World: The Sideline Story finally got a release date and it's September 27th. Obviously that's no time soon, so thing could easily change, but for some reason I feel good about it. Now of course he gonna have to come with a much better first single (I seriously doubt Work Out will work out, its just too average...much like Who Dat before it), but the Roc is generally good with sticking to release dates. And you know the album itself it dope, so I just can't wait.

Adele's Rolling In The Deep stays hot and grabs a 6th week at #1. Entering the top 10 this week is Jason Aldean's Dirt Anthem (23-9) and Nicki Minaj's Super Bass (11-10). Believe it or not, this is Nicki's first top 10 single as a lead artist. Her only other top 10 hits was Trey Songz's Bottoms Up which peaked at #6 last year. Yes, sad, but true.

Bow Wow On Sleep
Let me start this by saying that I like Bow Wow. I don't know why, but I always fucked with him even before he started writing his own shit.
Now with that being said, this is one of the stupidest stances I've ever heard. To be fair to Bow, he definitely isn't the only rapper or entertainer that feels this way (though most of them feel this way because they can't sleep rather than they refuse to), but it's still an idiotic stand to take. Seriously, why wouldn't you want to sleep? What has sleep ever done to anyone, but bring joy and eye boogers? Most of the time these niggas aren't doing shit anyway, it's not like they have to clock in anywhere, especially all his others niggas who he says he also wakes up when he gets up (hopefully they're not in the same bed lol).
I don't know, it could just be me, but I don't feel like not sleeping is good for anyone's career. I mean, you think Oprah doesn't sleep? Bill Gates? Warren Buffet? Again, it could just be me, but being anti-sleep seems moronic lol.
Bad Meets Evil
I actually just listened to the album and it's certified hot shit. The swiftness with which this project came together and was released kinda makes me pissed off at everybody always talking about their grinding but hardly ever dropping shit. Whatever though.
Anyway, I'm surprised they didn't employ this guy to say anything on the album, I think that would've been tight (Side note: I'm pretty sure the guy in this video is not the guy from the skit). I'm still copping it regardless, but I'm just saying it would've been cool.

Less Fat Joe
This is great, I'm really happy for Joe on his weight loss. I think I'm most happy that he didn't have any surgery or go on any weird diet, he just ate right and exercised. That's what it's all about right, not diet books and informercial exercise devices. Go Joe!
Bob Ley Spits Some Hov
With Ted Williams, the couple that won Super Bowl tickets, and the guy who recited every country in the world in alphabetical order, I thought 2011 was the Year Of The Homeless.

Your Vagina Ain't WHAT?!
Ohhhh, your vagina ain't handicapped! My bad, I thought you were saying something else. My hearing gets blocked at times when I'm rolling on the floor laughing hysterically.
Seriously though, what the fucking fuck? I'm just gonna assume someone is on the other side of that camera with a pistol pointed at her face making her do this. I mean, what else could be a possible explanation? I can't think of another.
I'm not gonna front though, that shit was kinda ill. No, not the thought of fucking her unhandicapped vagina, her lyrics, they were actually kinda tight. One freestyle and she's already leaps and bounds ahead of the likes of Soul-less Boy, Lil B, and Gucci Mane (to name a few).
Keep the good work lady, and don't be surprised if Young Real Nigga hops on the remix.

Nothing interesting is going on on the Hot 100 this week and Adele's Rolling In The Deep is still #1.
Big K.R.I.T. - Country Shit (Remix) (feat. Ludacris & Bun B) Video
With guys like Soul-less Boy Tell'himwhotobe polluting Hip-Hop like an AIDS dick in an orgy, you have to remember that there are actually talented artists out there to be enjoyed. Enjoy Big K.R.I.T., laugh and point at Soul-less.
Soul-less Boy: A Child Lost
Now that's not to say Soul-less was once brilliant and is now missed, and is to say that this nigga is a lost person who doesn't know who he wants to be. First he wanted to be Bow Wow, then he wanted to be Gucci Mane, then he wanted to be O.J. Da Juiceman, then he wanted to be Tupac, and now he wants to be Lil B. If I thought Lil B actually wrote songs and didn't get high and find the nearest recordable device, I'd say he wrote this for him because this is 1000% Based god (yes, the G is lower case on purpose). The rambling rant at the beginning, the basicness of his flow, the terribleness of the lyrics, the in-and-out camera shots, it's all Lil B. Hell, the nigga even had somebody doing that retarded stirring dance. Here's exhibit A-Z. I rest my case, Soul-less Boy is an impostor.
Of course this all raises the question: "How are you conceited when you're not even you?" But seeing how much I don't care, I'm just gonna end it here.

Nigga, this shit is fuckin' HILARIOUS! How does this not have a million views? Maybe it did and YouTube took the original down? Who's to know, but man was this shit funny as hell.
T-Pain Vows To Never Use Auto-Tune Again
Now, before you take to the streets and rejoice, you should know that that doesn't mean T-Pain will stop using funny voice effects altogether. Actually he's got something new called "The T-Pain Effect" that he says is "bigger and better" than auto-tune, which probably code for "weirder and even more annoying." Welp, I guess we'll just have to wait to see what "The T-Pain Effect" is exactly. Fingers crossed for it not being worse than auto-tune because that would be an odd and cruel way of Pain making us miss the technology that nearly killed Hip-Hop.

Surprise! Mister Cee Pleads Guilty
Speaking of Flex, who comes out (no pun intended...okay, kinda) looking more foolish in this situation, Mister Cee for being down for the sword fight or Flex for sticking up for him so aggressively?
Call me crazy, but I'm leaning towards Funk Flex (something I'm sure Mister Cee has wanted to do for years). Cee did what any uncloseted gay guy that got caught in a similar situation would do: deny, deny, deny. Flex, on the other hand, did what any guy on the D.L. would do if gay shit came up: get angry. That's actually worse because the allegations weren't even against him. It was almost like he was telling us he might have something in common with Mister Cee besides being a DJ for Hot 97. Just putting it out there.

Shaq Retires
Anyway, I'm glad Shaq finally called it quits because 1) it was terrible seeing him struggle to get up and down the court and 2) it was fucking weird that he was the oldest player in the league. I was 7 when Shaq came into the league, now I'm 26! That's insane to me.

A lot of people don’t get opportunities. He gave me that. That outweighs everything. I need that in black and white. I got caught in the moment and put my feelings out there. I should have never done that."
"I was explaining the whole Roc-A-Fella shit and a lot of feelings were going to get hurt. I was airing shit out. Just the homies could listen to that when they come into the studio. I couldn’t put that out. It wouldn’t sit right with me."
