Why???: Lil Scrappy Raps Over Beat It!

Yo! What the fuck is this??

Lil Scrappy - Beat It

Why would this nigga even disrespect MJ like that?? Makes me sad for my daughter...

Somebody's Gonna Get Pregnant IMMEDIATELY!: Alicia Keys!

WOOOOOOOOOOW! Ms. A. Keys holding shit down in something called Vegas Magazine (yeah i know, I never heard of it neither but they're on the map with this one!). Simply beautiful...

Somebody's Gonna Get Pregnant: Rihanna Photo Shoot

Hate the bra, LOVE the body wearing it! lol. I don't believe this whole "bad girl" thing, but I can tell Rihanna is a straight FREAK in bed!

Kanye West - Graduation (Review)

I hate to admit it, but I'm actually kinda disappointed at this Graduation album. I mean its straight, but there's nothing really THAT special about it. There's really no track on here that blows me away like majority of the tracks on The College Dropout or Late Registration did. Okay, well first off there is only 13 songs and that had me like WTF when I saw it because The College Dropout had 15 and Late Registration had 16 (both numbers without the skits of course...hell this album doesn't even have skits! Weird). Once I got past that and pressed play it was pretty lackluster and really just made me wanna go listen to Late Registration.

On top of that, Graduation featured two possible worse for Kanye albums: 1. Drunk And Hot Girls was terrible and possibly the worst song featured on a Kanye album 2. Lil Wayne's verse on Barry Bonds was terrible and possibly the worst verse featured on a Kanye album lol (people think I'm "hatin" on Lil Wayne, but he's really just not that hot anymore, sorry). Oh yeah, and what the hell was up with Homecoming??? Those were the same damn lyrics from Home with John Legend and that shit has been on the net since around the time College Dropout dropped. Quite frankly, I liked the original better, I mean Chris Martin did his thing but John Legend KILLED that shit and the beat isn't as soulful.

I dunno maybe I'm just being a bad fan and had too high of expectations... who knows but its time to give this shit a 2nd listen, peace.

AFTER THE 2nd LISTEN...

Okay, after the 2nd listen I felt a little more connected to the music, but that's pretty much the only difference. I'm still not blown away [like I expected to be] like when I heard Late Registration, The Black Album, or The Eminem Show (a few albums that I loved instantly). Drunk And Hot Girls was still awful (aside from Mos Def's part, but he didn't even rap), Lil Wayne's verse was still trash (he sounds WAY out of his league on the song, and album in general), no DeRay skits was just awkward, and I'm still indifferent about Ye recycling Home for Homecoming. Personally, I think The Glory should of been the last song, Drunk And Hot Girls shouldn't have made the album (or have even been made for that matter lol), and Barry Bonds could've been replaced by a new Kanye/Hov or Kanye/Nas collabo. Oh well, hopefully it'll grow on me more because I'm still gonna cop it to support good music since it is better than every other album this year besides Finding Forever.
4/5

I Still Can't Believe Usher Married This Ol' Pretty Man!

2-Cent Ent. Presents The Freedom Land Project

Yo, this is the realest shit out right now fuck what you heard.



This is a true shame what we're doing to the people of New Orleans. FUCK THE GOVERNMENT, they are NOT in this shit for us if it wasn't already obvious enough. Damn shame, but if you wanna see more just check out www.2-cent.com.

Somebody's Gonna Get Pregnant: Ciara

Damn, I LOVE Ciara!!!

New Bow...WOW!

Welp its just about confirmed that Lil Wayne is the new Elvis! Yeah you read that right, the new Elvis in the sense that he jacked his style, made it popular, and then people tried to jack his already stolen style from him lol. Bow Wow is the latest rapper to follow the whole maybe-if-I-rap-like-Wayne-I'll-also-get-some-unwarranted-praise trand lol. Check out the new & improved gully Bow Wow in to freestyles over lovers Wayne and Baby's Leather So Soft and DJ Khaled's Brown Paper Bag:

Bow Wow - Leather So Soft

He was REALLY going for the whole Gillie Wayne thing on this one, but it was aight.

Bow Wow - Brown Paper Bag

I liked this one MUCH better because he didn't really try to rap like Wayne and just did his own thing. Very dope--now do that about 30 more times and you'll be on the road to real Hip-Hop respect Bow!

Why???: "D4L member Shawty Lo Prepares Solo Album"

First off, why don't these one-hit wonders (and I use the term hit loosely) just go away when their 15 minutes is up?? Well like many others who don't know their career is over, some nigga named Shawty Lo from D4L has announced he's prepping a solo project... now the question is who the fuck cares?? Nobody?? Yeah I thought not. Anyway, he should get the STFU Award for this week for what he said below, but he's too insignificant to hold that honor. Well, this is what he had to say as if we cared:

"I don't really consider myself as much of a rapper as I do a truth teller," Shawty Lo. "I just talk about what's going on in my hood and in my life, so it's all coming from the heart. Even if people haven’t experienced what I'm talking about, everybody can understand and relate to what's real."

Yeah because Laffy Taffy is really what's going on in the hood. Niggas need to stop using not being able to rap as an excuse to rap wack shit...makes me sad for my daughter lol.

Joc Girl

LMAO!! Yo, I found this female's(??) picture on Soulja Boy's myspace page when I was getting that '12 minutes left' pic and it just had me rollin' how much she(??) looks like Yung Joc LMAO! Now, I have a few theories of how this child is related to Joc and here they are:

Yung Joc's daughter - I seriously doubt its his seed because even though he looks like he's pushing 40, he's actually only 24.

Yung Joc's little sister - This is the most likely possibility, but thats not interesting at all lol.

Yung Joc's... uh, self lol - This is obviously my favorite, but has no barring considering Lil Darryl Soulja Boy was probably around 6 when Joc was yung enough to be this girl lol.

Oh well, I'm sure she has no relation to Yung Joc, but fuck that, where is this child's parents???


Oh yeah, if you didn't know (which you probably didn't because I didn't either until last week lol) Joc's extremely poor (yet still better than his first) sophomore album Hustlenomics is in stores now!

Soulja Boy Career Countdown

Kanye On Entourage

Check out Mr. West on HBO's Entourage. Its not much, but I think he did a pretty good job. What do you think?? Hit me up with an email to fiyahmuzik@gmail.com or on AIM @ FiYaH BoY 954. If I were you, I'd go ahead and watch it ASAP because I'm sure the powers that be over at YouTube will yank this video soon. Oh yeah and if you watch it you'll get to hear a snippet of Kanye's next single Good Life featuring Whoopi T-Pain.

50 Cent Shade 45 Interview

50 is SO disrespectful... I LOVE IT! Whoo-Kid is too, that's why I love his show, but check out this interview from the other day where 50 calls in and spits on Lil Wayne, Kanye, and Olivia:

50 Cent Shade 45 Interview

He's so damn cocky, too bad Kanye is gonna smash him on the Billboard starting Sept. 11th. I think Fif is starting to realize that since he keeps saying don't watch the 1st week says, watch the 2nd week drop off...interesting. I GET IT!

Anyway, if for some reason you STILL haven't heard heard 50 Cent's alleged diss to Wayne Part Time Lover here it is:

50 Cent - Part Time Lover

Oh yeah consider yourself warned were only 2 WEEKS away from Sept. 11th!!!

Light Breeze Hurricane Chris - Hand Clap

Unfortunately this '98 Williams sisters looking dude that goes by the name Hurricane Chris, hasn't quite realized how this whole 'one-hit wonder' thing goes and decided to release an equally terrible follow-up to the annoying A Bay Bay. The song is called Hand Clap, but it obviously gets no applause from me.This nigga actually had the balls to rhyme, "row, row, row, your boat gently down the stream..." into the song, yeah I know, genius! Muhfucka, just release your weed plate album, let that bitch flop, and move on with your life doing whatever it is you can after your 15 minutes is up. I really shouldn't subject you to listening to such fuckery BUT here is this generation's idea of a hit record, the future of Hip-Hop still looks grave:

Hurricane Chris - Hand Clap

Playaz Circle - Duffle Bag Boy And Flo-Rida - Birthday (remix)

QUESTION: What's worst than trying to rap like Lil Wayne?? You guessed it, trying to rap like Lil Wayne on the same song as Lil Wayne lol. Well, despite that fact this joint is pretty dope. Highlighted by Weezy's hook and a blazing track, this song is the reason Luda pushed the DTP compilation back... and to think, all this time I thought Playaz Circle was an R&B group lol.



Well since we're talking about new artists, I might as well use this time to show Flo-Rida's video for the remix of his single Birthday with Rick Ross and Brisco. Now, despite Flo-Rida being the WORST and possibly least creative rap name of all-time, this beat is HOT! Check it out:



I know I can't be the only one thinking 'what happened to the video for the original song??' Oh well, yet another Miami mystery lol.

Where's The Ass?!?: Teri Hatcher, Kristen Durst, and Nicole Ritchie

This is something new I just wanted to blast off called Where's The Ass?!? where I'll spotlight the booty-less people of the world. And no, there won't just be white girls in here though they are killing it right now! lol. So without any further ado, I'd like to present Where's The Ass?!?:

Desperate Housewife Teri Hatcher

Spiderman's boonapilist Kirsten Durst

And worst of all, Nicole Ritchie lol.

N.O.R.E. - Set It Off (feat. Swzz Beatz & J. Ru$$)

This track is crazy! What else would you expect from Swizzy though?? Yeah so here's N.O.R.E. new shit Set It Off from the album Noreality:



The song itself is decent, even though J. Ru$$ is from South Florida he still came kinda wack. Well anyway here is a N.O.R.E. video that i LOVE all the way from the track, to the actually song, to the video:

Common - Drivin Me Wild

This the Chi-town legend Com Sense talking about his track with Lilly Allen Drivin Me Wild:



Here's the actual video here if you haven't seen its yet:



Very dope if I must say so myself... I'm still tryna figure out where they got the astronaut suit from though lol.

The Band Has Been Made... Again!

Welp, as usual I'm right! If you know me, you should be used to it, seeing I'm always right and all lol. Anyway, tonight on the outrageously long Making The Band finale Diddy finally picked the band of Brian A., Big Mike, Willie, Robert, and Qwanell (yeah I dunno how he made it either lol). Okay, so I had most of them right and because I didn't have Q making the band, but I did have Brian A., Big Mike, Donnie, and either Robert or Willie. Donnie didn't make the band, but turns out he got the best deal of them all when Diddy announced that he was signing him as a solo artist. Now the last time MTB members were signed as solo artist they were push all the way to the back of the Bad Boy roster, but I'm sure Diddy won't make that mistake again (especially with Donnie, I mean seriously he's a white R&B singer he's destined to sell millions in this climate lol). I dunno whatever that show tonight was still WAYYYYY too long and it really wasn't as interesting as it would have been if it was closer to the actual last episode. Oh well, Diddy will be Diddy.

Here's the After Show from MTV.com:

Somebody's Gonna Get Pregnant: Lenny Kravitz's Daughter

Welp, I must say she's definitely worthy of my seed... what do you think?? To be honest, I didn't even know (or care lol) if Lenny had kids, but damn now I'm happy he does lol.

STFU Award - Week of 8/19/07 - Mr. Collipark

Anytime you have Soulja Boy and/or Hurricane Chris in the same sentence as [or even in the general vicinity of] the word talent, you know we have a STFU Award recipient in the making. In this week's Mixtape Monday, former Ying Yang Twins producer Mr. Collipark had this to say regarding the his 2 newest "artists":

"It's incredible to find two talents like that in that short period of time, but the records they were pushing, most people just walk by them. Most people that heard 'A Bay Bay' before it popped just wrote it off as a gimmick, but that's my advantage. 'Cause I know a hit record. I know what people want to hear. I don't give a damn what another rapper or what another producer wants to hear. I know what they want to hear in the streets. So when I hear a record like 'A Bay Bay,' it's a no-brainer to me."

No need to even go on just STFU Collipark because anyone with a brain can see you're just using these kids for their one hit record. This time next year no one will even remember who they were...damn shame, oh well lol.

Killer Mike On Snitchin'

You GOTTA love Killer Mike! He broke this shit down so even ignorant white people (::cough:: Bill O'Reilly ::cough::) can understand...well maybe not, but it will make sense to anybody with common sense lol.

Young Jeezy and Slick Pulla - CTE Til The Death

Yo, this joint is crazy! If I could find this instrumental, I would start back rapping immediately! Jeezy should've save this joint for the USDA album because that shit was trash...oh well enjoy:

Racist Shit: "Now that's a good little ho!"

I've actually heard people say this shit didn't offend them... what a bunch of BULLSHIT! I cannot believe...matter of fact, I CAN believe shit like this is still going on because no matter what there will always be white people who look at us as this. Its really a damn shame and is EXTREMELY childish and uncalled for. Its getting me mad all over again even typing about this shit here! I wish I could see the muhfucka that made this so I could slap the shit out of his ignorant ass!

Designated Driver??

What the fuck were these niggas Bow Wow and Omarion thinking when they made this dumbass song Designated Driver?? I mean I didn't have that high of hopes for their collabo album later this year, but this shit here is just bad! At first look, it seems to have a decent message, but when you hear the song they are actually talking about "helping" females who drink too much by driving them to their home and fucking them. Real inspirational lol. Well if you haven't heard this shit and are still interested in this schlock be my guest:

Worst Battle EVER! Huey vs. Random Puerto Rican-ish Dude.

Now I know what you're thinking, 'why the fuck is this nigga posting this, Huey's career is over.' I don't have a good answer to that besides that the shit is fuckin' hilarious! From the audience's unfamiliarity with being in or around a battle to the terrible "punchlines" spit by Huey, this ain't shit but comedy!

Baldwin Hell

Question: Is Baldwin Hills the worst show TV? Well that might be a bit much, but I'm actually watching it right now and this is the corniest shit I've seen since all those Soulja Boy videos hit Youtube. I mean damn this shit isn't original or even realistic...at all! Makes me sad for my daughter lol. And wassup with the 2 kids from the "hood"?? Why are they on the show, I thought this supposed to be about one wealthy, predominantly black community?? That's like MTV putting a couple trailor park kids on The Hills or Laguna Beach... just a retarded idea. Anyway, one of the hoodlums' cousins get pregnant and this female can barely speak. Note to the Baldwin Hills casting team: don't hire an American actor/actress if they speak English, but you know we still are gonna need subtitles to understand what the hell they're saying.

Besides a few good looking young ladies, this show is ass! Then again, I'm sure the MTV shows that it was created to rival are just as bad, if not worse, but I just refuse to watch The Hills.

Somebody's Gonna Get Pregnant: Pole Control

This video is simply amazing! And if any of you ladies out there can do any of this my number is 954-33...well hit me up on Myspace lol.

The Real World: Hollywood!

Welp, coming off this wack ass Real World Sydney, the show is taking its next cast to Hollywood! Since Sydney was white-washed (literally) it makes me happy to know that at least one black person will be in the house next season. If you can recall, The Real World had that online video, you-pick-the-7th-roommate site (yeah, remember that? Lame ass shit lol) and the winner was "Pretyboy" from Daytona. Here's his winning speech on becoming the first person in the Hollywood house:

Address!!! Final-Real Final This Time - video powered by Metacafe

Yeah, I know dude is kinda lame, but hey, at least its a start! I think they are gonna need at least 5 more Black roommates to make up for Sydney though lol. Well we all know that will never happen, but lets pray for the best and hope we get a season like we got last year from Denver.

The Real White World

I wanted to write about this shit when I initially saw this year's cast of The Real World, but it really never was that important to me because I knew I was gonna watch it. Coming off the greatness that was last season in Denver, I should've known MTV would fuck shit up by having an all white cast! not even ONE Black or Hispanic! I was irate when I first found this shit out, but I've calmed down since (maybe that's why I didn't write this before lol). I still can't believe it though, I mean Real World used to be the shit but now its hit an all-time low with this being its first 100% all white cast. Now that I'm writing this I'm getting mad all over again lol. Matter of fact, I planned to write more but I just can't bare it so I'm just gonna sit here & act like this bullshit aint on until next season...damn MTV is fuckin up!

Finally, Mr. West Fights Back! ...Well Kinda

Kanye tellin them how its gonna be over in the U.K.

STFU Award - Week of 8/12/07 - Bill O'Reilly

In what is sure to be a reoccurring role, this week's STFU Award goes to the most famous racist on the planet, Bill O'Reilly. His ignorant ass won by a landslide with his misplaced criticism of Nas (or ass he says it "Nez"). You see, Nas was supposed to perform at some free Va. Tech concert, but bigot Bill doesn't see that as appropriate because of Nas' "violent" lyrics. Bill, shut the fuck up you have NO idea what you're talking about as usual! Plus is a damn free concert, he should be happy any platinum artist is willing to show up. O'Reilly's racist ways are the only tragedy I see here...

Fuck Lil Wayne

No, not fuck Lil Wayne like some of yall lil homo "fans"...fuck it, just watch the video lol.

Who's Dressin' These Lil Niggas?? Pt. 2

Apparently it wasn't enough for Pretty Ricky to just look like damn fools on 106 and Park with their Bobby Brown/Shabba Ranks get-ups, but they took their minstrel show talents (fuck it) minstrel show to TRL they were wearing the same shit! This time it was black, as you can see from the picture, but equally horrific.

50 Cent, Please Come Back To Earth!

Damn, I LOVE 50 Cent! No, not in the Lil Wayne way, but as an entertainer. No matter what happens he's gonna talk his shit and say whatever the hell he wants. Even with his career basically in shambles, 50 still tries to keep up the cocky front like he's still the shit when really everyone knows his day is over. I mean he's a smart dude so I KNOW he has to have realized somewhere in his brain that Kanye is gonna own him Sept. 11.

From the outside looking in its obvious, but at the same time you do have to see things from his perspective too. For whatever reason, he still thinks people actually give a fuck about what's going on with him like they did in '03, or '05 even. The real of the situation is that the 50 Cent allure has worn off and whether he wants to admit it or not its the damn truth (shout out to my nigga Industry). That's just natural progression coupled with Sir Isaac Newton's theory that what goes up must come down (well actually its not a theory, its the Laws Of Gravitation but it sounds better how I have it lol). It happens to all the popular artist that explode on the scene and sell bukoo records on their first joint from Nelly to Britney Spears, what goes up must come down. Britney's first album 14x platinum, her 2nd did 10, 3rd did 4.9, and 4th did 2. 50 Cent is not immune to this decline especially in today's climate of one-hit wonder, ringtone rappers and that's not to mention the huge hole The Game put in his armor last year with the G-Unot campaign.

I didn't mean to write so much but long story short, 50 needs to bring his swoll ass off his high horse and face facts! Artist that are about to sale a significant amount of records don't need 5-6 singles before their album drops to generate buzz (Interscope obviously has come to this realization which is why they keep leaking his records). And his last minute attempt to start beef with Lil Wayne (who is as about as insignificant as it gets when it comes to commercial sales) isn't gonna work. Sorry Fif, but your reign ended when you dropped The Game.

Somebody's Gonna Get Pregnant: Dancing With The Fiyah!

Hmmm...maybe I should consider having a moderately successful career in show business so I could be on Dancing With The Stars. I never watched this cornball ass shit so I had no idea the females on the show were bangin like this! Aight well no other point in this, just wanted to show you the Dancing With The Stars girls before I go to Hollywood & impregnant all four...be on the look out for the bump next season lol.

Ball Park's Taking It Too Far!

No offense to gay people, but man these new [...ish] Ball Park Franks commercials are MAD HOMO! lol. Yo, I know you guys have seen this shit here where some swoll arm pops out of a boys stomach and shoves a penis-esque hot dog into his mouth as he tries to sleep. Maybe I just have my gaydar turned up too high right now, but its something about some man's gargantuan arm shoving a plump, juicy wiener into a boy's mouth that makes me a little uncomfortable lol. The fact that he's sleep only adds insult to injury...or comedy to insult... I dunno whichever comes first (no pun intended) lol. Whatever, lets at least get one with a female (like the ones below lol) if we're gonna be shoving moist, succulent, mustard garnished, dick-shaped meat product into people's mouths... I think I took it too far with the last one LMAO.

Who's Dressin' These Lil Niggas??

I watched 106 & Park again today. Sadly, Pretty Ricky was the buffoons guests, proving that not every one-hit wonder only has one song. I'm not sure why they are dressing like Every Little Step Bobby Brown/Mr. Loverman Shaba Ranks but they really need to stop it. Then again they've always dressed terrible and made fools out of themselves on national television, I was just pretty content with doing nothing over and over rather than wasting key strokes writing about them before but oh well fuck it lol.

The one short nigga wit the fools gold teeth keeps saying they have the #1 album in the world 5 weeks straight. 5 weeks straight? Don't you have be on the #1 in U.S. For more than one week to qualify?? I dunno whatever but why every time they on TV this dirty lookin dredded nigga always doin this bad preacher impression?? I mean damn nigga enoughs, enough, the shit aint funny lol. Oh yeah and yall aren't role models so stop it!

Wow, look at this video! First they come on with the 1988 Bobby Brown/1992 Shabba clothes, now they're tryna bring back the 1997 Puff Daddy (remember him? lol) shiny suits in the video? I haven't seen that much fake gold since the last time I went to the Swap Shop. I dunno what's goin on but they (or whoever they pay to dress them...oh wait they're broke lol) have no fashion sense whatsoever, but the ladies love them...well obviously not enough to make either of their albums platinum but you know what I mean! They get a great response, only adding more evidence to the theory that the average teenage girl is possibly the dumbest creature on Earth...next to the teenage boy...and O.J. Simpson of course lol.

Fiyah Notez: Roast Of Flavor Flav

Flav lol.
-Whoever is supposed to be censoring the show is now fired I'm sure lol.
-Goodnite folks!

Introducing Steely McBeam...A Few Days Later LOL.

Well I said I was gonna come back hard after that last Kanye post, but I guess yall gon have to settle for this lol. Meet Steely McBeam. Now, I know what you're thinking, but no that's not some random pornstar's name, its actually the Pittsburgh Steelers new mascot! Who knows why they are just now getting a mascot after about 75 mascot-less years of being a franchise and pretty much just as long in the same damn uniforms.

The NFL should just do away with mascots anyway, the whole idea is retarded! Mascots have no place in professional sports, period. A grown damn man getting paid (scraps?) to wear an oversized...whatever the hell that shit is made of, is just ridiculous lol. The shit wasn't kool in high school and it definitely isn't when you're probably about 30 years old and just couldn't cut it as a ball boy.

Anyway, I give Steely one or 2 seasons before the organization realizes how retarded this is and gets rid of him for good. After all, the Steelers have done pretty okay for themselves these past 75 years without a mascot.

*edit: Well you knew it was coming, but Steeler Nation has made an online petition to get Mr. McBeam permanently removed.

Kanye West = That Nigga!

Just in case you needed more reason to see why Kanye is the hottest in the game, Complex magazine has let the Louis Vuitton Don be its guest editor this month. Now, I know this isn't new news but hell, let me be honest: 1) I didn't have a blog when they first reported it 2) I just really love the Kanye/Cassie cover they have (which is really why I'm even writing this now lol). And I know I'm not the only one thinking 'damn, Kanye & Diddy must be hittin that!' Shit, I'm starting to sound like a real blogger! I'm gonna have to come with some hard shit tomorrow BUT until then check out the covers & the real issue where Kanye interviews T.I. and Mark Ronson.

P.S. - You know you feeling that watch son! lol.

STFU Award - Week of 8/5/07 - Al Sharpton

Don Imus must be somewhere laughing his ass off! While he's at home counting his money and plotting a comeback to radio, Al Sharpton is staging rallies across 20 U.S. cities. No, not protest anything of importance like the four kids that were gunned down execution style in New Jersey, the five year-old kid shot in the head by a police officer trying to shoot a snake out of a tree, or even the pointless war in Iraq. Nope, he much rather focus on the war on RAP lyrics. That's right, the permed crusader comes to save the world from the real problem that has plagued us for years, RAP lyrics! I mean of course we all know Hip-Hop and its horrific lyrics are responsible for the nearly 200,000 unaccounted for weapons in Iraq. I don't have to tell you how those explicit bastards made the U.S. spend $15 billion on bottled water last year alone. No, you already knew that, so why would I have to mention that it funded dogfighting, shipped drugs into the country, manufactured guns and distributed them throughout the black community, rose the price of gas (while simultaneously helping gasoline companies to earn record profits...now that's what I call positive carry!), called Katrina survivors "refugees" while ignoring them, killed over 30 Virginia Tech students, made KKKramer and Don Imus go on racist tantrums, and made Lil Wayne #1 on MTV's Hottest MCs list?? Okay, okay maybe the sarcasm goes too far with that last catastrophe but the shit had to be said lol.

Anyway, I think you get the point that I was trying to make about there being much more important issues that are challenging our country than explicit RAP lyrics. Plus, if I'm not mistaken, didn't we fight this battle already?? Isn't that why they locked up my cousin Charles Freeman for selling 2 Live Crew's As Nasty As They Wanna Be October 20, 1990 (yep that was my cousin lol)?? Isn't it the reason for the Parental Advisory sticker and the clean versions of albums?? If you didn't know, the key word in parental advisory is... DING DING! You guess it, PARENTAL ADVISORY! Not artist advisory and sure as hell not record label advisory. And if you think for a second that these labels are gonna throw there money out of the window in an effort to clean up Hip-Hop you're sadly mistaken. NEWSFLASH: they don't care about Hip-Hop either, they are a business and a business is in the business of making money! That's what it all comes down to anyway... oh you thought Big Al's rallies made MSNBC fired Imus?? NOPE!
