CNN’s Don Lemon recently held a panel on Black Men in the Age of Obama and deemed it necessary to invite DJ Drama. Are you seeing a pattern here? Anyway, what I took away from this interview is that Drama would probably be a bad father if Obama wasn’t president. The only person who made any sense on this panel was Steve Perry.
In light of the controversy surrounding the swine flu vaccine, self-ordained Health Ranger Mike Adams has released a song and video, “Don’t Inject Me,” expressing his resentment for the vaccine.
This is a new low, even for Fox News. Marc Lamont Hill, one of the maybe 3 liberal analysts on Fox, has been fired, but no one bothered to tell him. Hill was on the Steve Malzberg radio show to talk about it. He says he still doesn’t know why he was fired:
Says Marc:
“Yeah I eventually – I got a Google alert at 11 o’clock [a.m.] that it had been announced that I’d been fired. After that, I guess someone followed up later in the day, you know because I was sort of trying to figure out what was going on. … I found out that it was true but other than that I don’t have any other information. … I haven’t had any thorough conversation with anyone.â€
This raises even more questions about the reason behind his dismissal.
In an emotional sitdown with Oprah Winfrey, Mike Tyson opened up on some of the checkered past. Tyson was candid as he delved into his personal mistakes, his erratic behavior off the ring, his years in prison, his 8-month marriage to Robin Givens, his wasteful spending. He also talks about the death of his 4-year old daughter for the first time. Pop the lid for a wrap-up of the interview and the full video of Oprah’s interview with Iron Mike.

There’s been so much outrage over the Jackson Jive skit which aired on the Australian variety show Hey Hey It’s Saturday, so I figured you might want to see the controversial performance for yourself. I don’t even know how this qualifies as a tribute. The blackface is ugly.
KRS-One had nothing but praise for Def Jam at the 2009 Vh1 Hip-Hop Honors. Psyche!
“There really would be no hip-hop as we know it today if it wasn’t for Def Jam. But you don’t get that respect without also being the label that single-handedly destroyed hip-hop.
Wait, what’s that sound? Never mind, that’s just Soulja Boy breathing a sigh of relief. Seriously, Kris has a point.
Fox News recently put out an ad claiming that CNN and other news outlets ignored the anti-Obama tea party. Watch as CNN’s Rick Sanchez proceeds to annihilate Fox in his Olbermann-esque response.
First things first, don’t play this video at work. Hats off to Lady W for her brutal honesty on such a volatile issue. Yes, I know she pointed out that she was insanely drunk during when it happened. And yes, I’m aware that some women like it rough. That said, I’m also wondering if there’s a fine line between beating a woman to inflict harm and beating a woman to get your rocks off. Does slapping the stars out of a woman transcend violence if both parties are intimately involved? Is it OK to hit a woman as long as both parties consent to the act? Please enlighten me.
Oh, and go subscribe to Lady W’s YouTube channel. You’ll thank me later.
