Whatcha think about...

Charles Hamilton and his girl? The whole situation is kinda wack in my opinion. Personally, I've never been a fan of Charles Hamilton's music. And I doubt the video of him getting knocked out plus the iChat counseling session are going to get him any more fans.

What irks me the most out of everything is that in the apology video the first thing he says is "apparently people got it twisted." Really? WE got it twisted? You called your girl out and she punched you in the face. There's not much we can twist.

For those of you who haven't seen the video footage yet you can check it out below. But I'm pretty sure mostly everyone has already seen this nonsense lol.

Songs I'm Feeling: "Put Me On"

Great song. I just wish he would choose one stage name and stick with it. B.o.B? Bobby Ray? Which one is it buddy?

B.o.B., Teairra Mari And More In ATL

Since I'm moving back to Atlanta this week I figured I take this opportunity to say what's up to my fellow ATLiens and inform you of some events taking place this week. Actually both the events listed below take place the day I get to Atlanta (May 28) so check 'em out :-)

Ban One, Praise One, Retire One

For those of you who don't know, one of my all time favorite movies is Step Brothers. I've seen it over ten times now and it's STILL hilarious.

If you've seen Step Brothers you probably remember the scene where Dale and Brennan are doing the group interview and Dale does the 'ol switcharoo on the interviewer. Dale asks the interviewer, "Martha Stewart, Oprah, your wife. You gotta fuck one, kill one, and marry one, who do you pick?"

Hilarious. So I've decided to try my hand at the Hip Hop version of this. Here goes:

Eminem, Andre 3000, Jay-Z. You gotta ban one, praise one, retire one, who do you pick?

My picks...

Ban = Eminem
Praise = Andre 3000
Retire = Jay-Z

Now it's your turn...Hit up the comments section :-)

Ladies Stand UP!

For the past few weeks a handful of female celebrities have been giving us females a bad wrap with their nudie pics, videos, etc. So instead of concentrating on the negativity of that whole situation I want to post two videos by some great female artists who don't have to flash their titty sets to make a name for themselves.

I bring you NOLA DARLING and MELANIE FIONA. Enjoy!

"What's Beef??"

Some of you may or may not have heard that the latest set of rappers beefing over God knows what is rapper Eminem and "rapper" Nick Cannon. Apparently Em was talking slick about Mariah Carey, Nick Cannon's wife and so the beef began. This one doesn't seem that serious, but you know I had to come with my MS Paint cariacture. So enjoy.

And yes that is Mariah Carey in the water. I was actually thinking about drawing sharks around her, but eh.

Oh, and yes Nick Cannon's eyes are in the shape of hearts lol.

Kid Cudi Performing "Day N Nite" With Wale's Band

Last night, rapper Wale performed alongside Colin Munroe and go-go band UCB at Le Poisson Rouge in NYC. I actually had a ticket for this show, but I was in a crappy mood as some of you may or may not know.

But rapper Kid Cudi made a surprise appearance at the Wale show and had the audience wondering "Do you always carry a Louis Vuitton briefcase with you when performing live?"

My Letter To 50 Cent

Dear 50 Cent,

You suck balls. I don't mean that literally, but you suck as an artist. I've been meaning to write you for a long time and explain you're suckiness to you, but haven't gotten around to it. In my opinion, you're a prime example of what's wrong with Hip Hop. I know you've still got those people out there who support you because you released some decent shit back in the day, but you are a sell out. Artists like you only see dollar signs. You're about quantity over quality.



I wish you knew how much your dumbass beef with Rick Ross irritated me. It annoys the hell out of me when two artists get into it with each other (pause) shortly before their albums drop. We know it's all publicity. You can't think we're that dumb. Did you even release a single dis track? Because that's typically what artists do when they have issues with each other. They don't make cartoons or visit their rival's moms job. Cause that's just some dumb shit right there.



Vitamin Water sucks by the way. It's just a nasty version of Gatorade. And your show on VH1? Garbage. Just like your pal Tony Yayo. I know this letter may seem kind of mean, but you did it to yourself. I'm sure you and a lot of other "artists" probably hate us bloggers. But you gotta understand that we're just fed up. We're fed up with the bullshit artists (like yourself) and the garbage music being put out.

Good luck with your album...*In Borat voice*...NOTTT!

Sincerely,

Danielle H.
