Tila Tequila Is Top 5 Dead or Alive

did-you-know-that-the-homonym-of-tt-is-titty

Everyone has a Greatest Rapper poll these days. Not to be outdone, some tweeps on Twitter joined in on the fun with their own Greatest Rapper poll. According to the noble citizens of Twitteronia, no other rapper on earth is seeing Tila Tequila on the mic, as of Friday morning (11:15 am CT). I’m no expert in these things but I always thought Tila Tequila was more famous for her “reality” show, Money Shot with Tila Tequila or whatever, than for her music.

Proceed for a pictorial summary of the bizarre Tweeterwall saga.

Welcome to Magic City

If there are two things that I love, they are Hip-Hop and Harry Potter (Pause). Tonight at midnight, I will be in line with the other nerds for the premiere of the newest film in the HP series. You’ll know it’s me because I’ll be the one that isn’t dressed up like I go to an English prep school for witches and wizards.

But until the next Hip-Hop or Harry Potter related masterpiece comes along, hopefully this video where the two intersect will hold you over. Note how the mainstream idea of rap battles comes from the movie 8 mile.

Abe Lemons Quote of the Day: Memphis Bleek

bleek-and-jigga

The relationship between Jay-Z and his right-hand man, Memphis Bleek, has been well documented in songs, concerts, and interviews. Jay once rapped, ā€œBleek could be one hit away his whole career, as long as I’m alive he’s a millionaire/And even if I die, he’s in my will somewhere, so he could just kick back and chill somewhere.ā€ The following quote is a startling corroboration of that sentiment:

“In case something happens and I can’t make no money, I can go to my friend Jay-Z for a stimulus package.”

Nicki Minaj Spits a Mean 16

I have no idea what’s going on in this video, but I think it’s supposed to be a Nicki MInaj freestyle. Too bad she doesn’t rap in English.

[Thanks, AB]

OK!’s Tacky Michael Jackson Cover

OK! magazine reportedly paid $500,000 for exclusive rights to a photo of Michael Jackson taken in his final minutes, while paramedics tried to resuscitate him. And they call this a tribute issue?

Pop the hood if you really want to see the tasteless image.

Marquis Daniels Makes Ron Artest Sound Like Rakim

Q6 (Marquis Daniels of Indiana Pacers) (Ft. Lil Boosie) – “Mouthpiece”
NBA season is over. Silly season — a part of the year where NBA players make headlines for important things like smoking weed or rapping over tinkerbell beats — is now in session. Case in point: Here’s soon-to-be ex-Pacer Marquis Daniels spends much of his downtime crafting rap songs that make Ron Artest sound like Rakim. It’s not like Q6 has a team to go back to (for now) anyway, as the Pacers have decided to cut him loose. The less said about Lil Boosie, the better.

The Strangest Michael Jackson Photo Ever

jackobug

Rumor has it Michael Jackson was a strange fella. This photo obtained by Radar shows the King of Pop sleeping in something known as a hyperbaric chamber in 1986 or so.

Says Radar:

Hyperbaric chambers are used for hyperbaric oxygen therapy and treat the body with 100 percent oxygen at greater than normal pressure. The chamber is used in treating carbon monoxide poisoning and a number of other conditions. Saturating the body with oxygen has been found to have a number of possible health benefits and studies are ongoing involving the use of the chamber to treat various conditions.

At the time the photo of Jackson in the chamber was taken he was said to be sleeping in it regularly. He was at the height of his fame and loved the mystery and speculation that followed publication of the photo by the National Enquirer, according to a source close to the situation.

Supposedly, the hyperbaric therapy thing was part of his plan to live to 150. Jackson died at age 50 on June 25th, 2009.
