Tim getting scratched from the BP 3



Rumor has it songs that Timberland is featured on for the BP 3 have been leaked due to some mismanagemnt of the Servers that are eused to send songs along- could that be why we have heard about a quarter of Blueprint 3 already and it doesnt come out for another month or so, anyway.....due to this negligence rumor has it that Jay is contemplating scratching these songs and re-doing the album...wouldnt that be something?

Big L Documentary


Long overdue, and much needed; the documentary of the life and times of Harlem's Own, Big L. Regarded by mad hardcore hip hop fans as one of the best of all time, Big L had a successful solo career as well as being a member of Children of the Corn- the rap supergroup which included Mase, Camron. McGruff, and Bloodshed before moving on to the legendary Diggin in the Crates crew with Fat Joe, Diamond D, Lord Finess, Show and A.G.

The documentary will be titled, Street Struck: The Big L Story. Produced by Dangerzone films; it will include interviews by friends and family members as well as footage of L himself. There has been no definitive date given, but sources speculate February to memorialize his 11th year of passing.

Support that documentary of one of the rawest to ever do this Hip Hop thing.

50 for Charity



I reported to you guys some time ago that city of NY was contemplating blocking 50's Family Day in 40 projects in Queens- that became reality; what they couldnt stop was his busing of hundreds of families to Six Flags Great Adventures where he performed for an invite only crowd. During the concert 50 has these words to say about the entire ordeal of him not being allowed to throw his family day in Queens, “When I tried to do it in the hood like everyone else would do it, everyone is like '50 Cent don’t come through the hood.' But all of them don’t get a chance to see me when I come through.,” 50 stated. “And they be like 'we don’t see 50.' You don’t see me because I’m usually somewhere where I’m not trying to be seen. Everybody look right there…that’s the motherf**king police. Them motherf**kers follow me everywhere I go. Y’know why? Because I’m from Southside! While everybody looking f**k the police!”

Guess 50 doesnt roll wit the authorities..u be the judge

CHIPMUNK - OOPSY DAISY


Blow Your Whistles!

Yes, Im referring to the Notting Hill Carnival taking place this bank holiday weekend. Carnival lost it's appeal for me many many years ago due to the fact that my last carnival was spent failing miserably to find a soundsystem that continued past 5pm and desperately searching for the loo for many more hours after that! Definately not my idea of fun...BUT having seen this


I could have possibly been persuaded to hold off the liquid intake and skank the day away...the line-up is THAT BIGGGG!!

Living Off Xperience


Over the weekend, Yonkers, NY Police raided the apartment of Jadakiss, aka Jason Phillips of the LOX. during the search the police recoverd 6.5 pounds of weed, 6 grams of heroin, and about 40,000 in cash. ouch...I guesss the moniker LOX fits, thats an experience right there. At press time, there hadnt been a warrant issued for Kiss' arrest, as he was not in the apartment when the raid took place. But if u know like I know, its only a matter of time before he's in custody.

This Boosie..how much you want?


Those were the words allegedly mouthed by the Lousiana rapper after being stopped in his 07 Challenger by an unmarked unit whom said the rappers car wa engulfed in smoke. After searching the car, marijuana, a large amount of cash and a gun was found and Boosie was arrested. He's slated to stand trial Sept 28th on drug and gun charges which carry a minimum of five years.

Heidi Pratt was not the most flexible or coordinated sources say at the Miss Universe competition.

Kim from Real Housewives is definitely taking botox according to sources, and is on the verge of marrying Big Poppa.

What is she thinking



Todays Edition of what is she thinking subjects Kourtney Kardashian, aka, Kim's little sister....It is well known that miss Kourtney is pregnant- god bless- but she was recently interviewed by the Daily 10 and stated that she might be willing to pose nude while with child..huh? First of all I must back it up and ask, why should she be the subject of so much press? I mean ok ur sister is top shelf and ur no shab urself, but again her niche in life is?......someone help me out here- ok maybe u guys r as stuck as I am. Must be nice to be able to coat tail ride to stardom and years later be able to persevere through the question: what do u do again.......smh....Should we blame the TV station whom introduced us to their wonderful word. I will say again for the record, the reality TV game is getting out of control- next up, Tameka Foster- subject life after Usher. I still dont know what her life was before Usher, and its any consolation- her life will probably be the same after. We want to see that because.....you be the judge.

When is Enough......ENOUGH


When is Enough, enough is my question for the day....As a man I am all for handling your responsibilities and yes Kelis as well as baby Knight are entitled to such; However, I am not with a woman taking a man to the bank. If he owes, he pays bottomline- but this Nas and Kelis soap opera is getting out of hand. As of this week, Ms. Milkshake is asking for an estimated $400, ooo up from the $44, 000 she was already granted by the courts. She says she now needs $17,000 for Child Support, ok, but how do u ask for more for yourself than the baby- priorities may be the right word. Does she need $72, 778 for spousal support. In addition shes seeking retro child support totaling $29, 500. Her reasoning is there is a dependence on Nas for her to maintain the lifestyle that she has become accustomed to as a result of their being together.
Now I dont know what these irreconciliable differences that caused this break up are, but is there not an inevitable alteration in lifestlye with the break of two people. She wants the monetary without the commitment. I do not agree; if her story were like Angela Bassetts in Waiting to Exhale, and she was at the job when no one else was there helping him get on his feet than I would say more power to you sister. But in this case she came along when the cake was baked already. If anybody chooses to disagree, take a stab at it.

Take a Pic, and your couple


Apparently love does not live in the home of Ashanti and Nelly anymore. After quite a number of years together the two are headed to splitsville reports say. Reasons- you take a guess, everyone else has. One of the more foreseeable ones has been that she is ready to settle down and he is not, as he has been spotted galavanting with Jessica rabbit in Miami. Not a bad choice,if I might say so myself.

Ashanti has recently been linked to Dipset member/ Skull Gang CEO Juelz Santana, whom she was flicked with at The Presidential Dimes BBQ at Club Eden in New York City. Isnt it a shame, a simple picture means a relationship. The nerve of those paparazzi.

Comments Please.....


The rumor mill has spun my way and i am compelled to share and get you guys opinion. One day listening to the radio, cant remember exactly which station, but there was mention made of the supposed relationship between Video Vixen Angel Lola Luv and Souljah Boy. Through my many perusals today, I have been told that she is pregnant with his child. Insiders say that Souljah Boy was trickin heavy, and the tat on his neck is a replica of her lips. I wonder how much the next 18 years is gonna cost him. I aint mad cause honestly she's BAD! but is he in that league? u be the judge.

Gaga's Blueprint















"I very much want to inject gay culture into the mainstream," she told writers Joshua David Stein and Noah Michelson of OUT magazine. "It's not an underground tool for me. It's my whole life. So I always sort of joke that the real motivation is to just turn the world gay."

So thats her plan for us? Love the music, cant say i agree with the motive. But then again, to each his own; as long as she keeps tha ladies moving so guys can figure out their poker faces.

The New York Post has published reports of death threats and violence against the rapper. In Bloomberg's words, he and 50 have agreed that him performing would not be the best idea.....Wow....in addition, Bloomberg has said that if 50 appears even socially, the NYPD will be on heavy alert. tell us something we dont know.

Gucci getting hated on

Upon being released from rehab, Gucci Mane is scheduled to perform in Albany on August 9th. He may be one of the hottest out right now, but he is not a favorite of City Commissioner Bob Langstaff who had this to say, "I'm appalled...what do you need from me to keep this "entertainer" from performing at Albany's Civic Center? This is not appropriate for our civic center." in an email to city manager. I wonder what has him so mad...talk about speaking ur mind; Doesnt he want Gucci to make Albany's trap say aye.

The Process is due in stores November 24th.

O-Dear!

After being signed to Lil Wayne's record label, Young Money, for all of, oooohhh, 10 secs, Omarion has been DROPPED! due to leaking an unofficial collabo track he did with Mr Sizzurp! Wow! The industry are really starting to take this 'leak' thing super serious!

Lil Wayne's official website, Lil Wayne HQ' had this to say on the matter:

'Two months after being signed to Young Money Entertainment, Omarion has been dropped from the record company. Mack Maine tweeted this message on his Twitter which reveals that Omarion is fired because he has allegedly leaked his duet song with Lil Wayne.
“ATTN: Omarion is no longer Young Money … the song they leaked ft. Wayne is not official .. good luck 2 him in his future”.
Shortly after that, two of the Young Money’s artists Jae Millz and Lil Twist re-tweeted Mack’s message to show that it is not a rumor.'

Fish Tank

British movies never really get the credit they deserve or the support needed to top box office figures. Some may say keeping it underground adds to the raw and gritty nature of the genre but recognition is long overdue and this just might be the film to do it. 'Fish Tank' follows the life of a out of control teen with no where or no one to turn to as her attitude and behaviour in every aspect of her life has resulted in isolation from all support systems, friends and family. The Cannes film festival rated it highly as one to watch which is a great accolade and the trailer backs this up nicely.

Sarah's Rage


Former Member of Diddy's Da Band, R&B songstress Sarah Stokes was recently arrested for stabbing her husband after a domestic dispute in which she as well was injured as she tripped while trying to storm out the house. Who wouldve thought? I guess there is a thin line between love and hate, and if not it can grow with time...All I remember is her being so family oriented and dedicated to her commitments. Man what a difference a day makes. She was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon. At press time the D.A. was tryin to decide if formal charges are in order....huh!!!!!!! I guess we'll have to see what happens...

Lovely Bones

A good few years back, LxEnts came across the following book


We had no idea what it was about but from the very first page we were hooked! To break it down simply, it's about a 14 year old girl who is murdered but who's soul cannot move on until her murder is brought to justice. The story is told from the perspective of the dead girl who witnesses first-hand the heartbreak and extreme pain her family are going through whilst at the same time trying to communicate through any means necessary clues to nail her killer so she can pass over to the other side.

Reading this book was so eeriely haunting, moving and gripping that the thought of a movie was a curious thought which was cast aside just as quick with the fear that all the hard work of the book would be undone by a shoddy cast, an unbelievably fantastical screenplay and Hollywood hype. Then we came across this:


...and were pleasantly surprised! From the trailer it is easy to see that the sensitiveness of the book has been captured beautifully, the cast chosen well and the visual interpretation, breathtaking! We look forward to reviewing this lil gem!

There's Club Row, boasting the likes of Home/Guesthouse, Prime, M2, and next block anchoring with Cain Luxe as well as Suzie Wongs; Uptown, Harlem to be exact, one name stands alone as far as Friday nights are concerned and that is Body located on 135th and 12th Ave in NYC.

Last night i took my ignaugural trip through there and was not disappointed. Fellas, Ladies, not often do I sing praise but this is the place to be if you are in Harlem or anywhere easily accessible- trust me when I tell you. Great crowd, great music, and the line does not take forever to move, which we all know can be a hassle and a happening venue. Comprised of three rooms each with its own bar and DJ; Body has taken over.
