THE ROUND UP: SNOOPS OFFERS TO APPEAR ON OPRAH; PASTOR’S DAUGHTER SORRY, & JAY-Z HELPS WINEHOUSE.
Tuesday, April 24, 2007

Snoop Dogg has offered to appear on Oprah Winfrey’s TV talk show to debate the use of racist and sexist lyrics in rap music. Last week, the hip-hop star’s name was mentioned on The Oprah Winfrey Show in a discussion about the lyrical content of rap albums and the effects such music is having on children.
But despite Winfrey’s opposition to graphic rap lyrics, Snoop Dogg - real name Calvin Broadus - wants to sit down and talk with her on her show. He tells MTV, “I’m a fan of Oprah. I feel like whatever they’re saying about me, negative or positive, I appreciate it. [READ MORE]
YOU’RE NOT SORRY, YOU’RE JUST SORRY YOU GOT CAUGHT!!

Just in case you missed the updated post on that whole Akon / 14 year-old scandal - here is the latest:
Deena Alleyne says she is sorry for her raunchy dancing with Senegal-born US artiste Akon at the Zen nightclub on Thursday.
A video clip of the act was posted on the YouTube-Broadcast Yourself website but later pulled after a notification to YouTube by Universal Music Group.
“This whole hip hop thing is a guise and I don’t want any part of it, I don’t want to be any part of it,” said Alleyne during an interview at Chaguanas yesterday.
“Look at what I have to go through with one mistake that I made. My dad warned me every time and I didn’t listen. I am sorry. [SOURCE]
JAY-Z TO HOOK UP AMY WINEHOUSE

Jay Z has reportedly added his hip hop stylings to Amy Winehouse’s song Rehab to help the British soul star break into the mainstream American market. Word is he is big fan of hers and remixed the song so that it can “appeal to a wider audience.”
A source says, “Jay-Z told Amy he had some great ideas and when he called her back a few weeks later, she couldn’t believe it.”

yeah oprah needs to let some reAL rappers on there snoop, wc, mc eiht, cube, too short, scarface, c bo, and e40 on there to tell the real not fair that everybody’s hating rap music oprah, don imus, bill o reily and the rest need to shut up and talk about offensive lyrics in rock music who also make songs about sex,drugs, violence and rape not fair that black girls are being called ho’s when white girls do the same thing britney, christina, and madonna are anorexic ho’s lindsay lohan too.

snoop on oprah? ha! this man can’t even string together a coherent sentence without using the words “n*gga, ho, bitch”, much less go on oprah and debate the state of hip hop today and all of its problems. oprah would eat him alive. should make good television though.
i didn’t even recognize deena without those two little straps of cloth she called a “shirt” covering her breasts. lol. awww, now she’s sorry. i would be too if i got caught.
i’ve been hearing about this amy winehouse chick for so long, but never really gotten around to downloading any of her music.

I think snoop is taking the right approach to this issue and not tryna do what Ludacris and fifty cent did and talk trash about Oprah. Although I doubt that Snoop will change his lyrics after he appears on the show, I just hope that he does not become another Oprah hater.

Who the hell is Amy? Never heard of her.
And I guess Deena is sorry. She wouldn’t be sorry if her hot tale would’ve never got caught.
I think it’s a good idea to bring Snoop on Oprah. That should be a really good interview. Anxious to hear what Snoop is gonna say.

snoop on oprah… this should be interesting
14 year olds are always sorry when they get caught. Who let her out of the house looking like she did in the first damn place. And WHY in the bloodclot does she have her belly button pierced @ 14?
Amy Winehouse Cd is good I look forward to hearing her remix with the Jay.

yes

@5 Amy IS cracked out, shes renowned for her alcohol abuse and probably suffers from other addictions.
such a shame cus shes talented.
that rehab songs old, isnt it a bit late for Jay z to be doing a remix to it? cant he pick another song of Amy’s. i never liked him anyway

I’ll give credit where credit is due. Snoop’s offering to appear on the Oprah Show will at least move the conversation along. But the forum should move to the Spellman or Morehouse campus.
This way, the focus could be more on the issues and less about personal attacks on Oprah, Imus or on individual rap artist including Snoop.

Snoop didn’t say nice things about Oprah on 106, I don’t have a problem with that but stick by what you said and don’t say you’re a fan of hers.
The 14 year old already paid the price for her mistake and more than the average teenager. That exposure was probably a blessing to stop her from doing worse. Now people LEAVE THE GIRL ALONE.

That will be interseting if he appears on her show. I will definitely watch.
That little girl knew goodness well what she was doing. I doubt that Akon put a gun to her head and told her to grind on em like that. Bcuz what she wont dont another will willingly. He didnt know she was 14 but she knew how old she was and how quick that will get on the internet.

I know I’m going to watch it when Snoop comes on Oprah show. She should have 50 cent to come to. That really would be interesting.
The fast-ass 14 year old knew what she was doing. Her goals in life is probably wanna be another video hoe.
Jay-z and the wine house = I really don’t care

1)Snoop would stand a better chance on death row than on Oprah’s couch. She gonna eat him up, he must not know bout her. Remember that author that tried to play her?
2)Sorry, but I don’t understand what that island girl is trying to say. Wen man dem go pon di island where di coconut grow fina wan dem rasclart gyals to chat propa. bumbeclart
3)Jigga would ruin Rehab. And you know i’m right on that. the tracks hot as it is. i’m tired of him butting his nose in songs for the sake of it

Instead of Jay Z helping out a Joss Stone clone,he should promote the artist that are one the label he works for. I can not be the only one who is sick of hearing white soul with the exception of Robin Thicke. He can be tolerated.

The girl hasn’t learned any lesson. More that anything, she thinks she’s off the hook. “A slap on the hand and the girl will understand”. Now the pictures of a more demure and innocent young lady surface. Please, I was gettin it at a young age and I knew exactly what I was doing and I was “sorry” too when I got busted.

Jay-Z’s talents would be better spent helping out some hack like Cassie.

“Back to Black” is hot as hell, at the top of the charts, and Amy quickly sells out every US venue she is slated to perform in.

I THINK OPRAH AND BILL OREILLY SHOULD SPEND A LIITLE TIME ON SOME OF THE POSITIVE HIP-HOP ARTISTS THEN CONTINUE TO GIVE THE ARTISTS THAT DEGRADE WOMEN MORE SHINE. ARTISTS LIKE ANDRE 3000, MOS DEF , LL COOL J, AND PETE.COLON (FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NOT HEARD HIS MUSIC YET WATCHOUT!) IT SEEMS LIKE THE ARTISTS WITH THE LEAST AMOUNT OF SUBSTANCE GET MORE ATTENTION AND THEREFORE GENERATE MORE REVENUE EVEN WHEN THE WORST LIGHT IS BEING SHINED ON THEM. ONLY THE CONSUMERS CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT. THE YOUNG LADIES AND WOMEN ALIKE SHOULD DEFINITELY MAKE A STATEMENT!

oprah shouldn’t bring snoop dogg on her show. Mainstream america will not appreciate being enlighten to his views when they already know better. I would just be publicity for snoop. He needs to clean up his image and mature like russell did or at least appears to have.
That girl knew what she was doing, superhead just may be her idol. We’ll hear from her again.

I’m watching boston legal and this mother was complaining about a hooker doll being sold to her daughter and said it is influencing her behavior. She is suing the manufacturer.
The judge said “wrong. a doll is not the major influence in your child’s life. you are. Case dismissed.”

amy is way better and more authentic than a joss fake stone. amy is bringing what lauren started and the rnb chick today can’t…soul. well, as much as a white girl can, which is still more than the black girls in rnb
jay is not doing nothing special for her. the hip hop community knows her because she’s worked with ghostface and the bloggers talk about her. considering that his album barely went platnum he needs to consentrate on himself appealing to a wider audience.
oprah can’t talk about these people and not want them on her show. she needs to lower her holier than thou azz back down to earth

snoop needs to sit his bony ass down only reason white ppl keep saying his name is b/c they dont know better. snoop is the main rapper that has the best cross over appeal. they say his name just like they keep saying bling. nobody still says that shit but white ppl. and nobody still listens to snoop he needs to retire real talk. i hope oprah doesnt let him on her he would just make hip hop and blk ppl look even worse like Cam ron did on 60 minutes.
