Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans on August 29, 2005 and the rest is history. Yesterday marked the two year anniversary of this environmental and governmental disaster. Our hearts go out to everyone who was effected by Katrina’s wrath.
After the cut, I attached a two clips from Spike Lee’s Emmy Nominated Documentary, When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts. It premiered to critical acclaim on HBO last year. This documentary was EXCELLENT and if you haven’t had a chance to view it yet, you need to. Check out HBO.COM for more info.
Guess what popular couple was laughing it up in Vegas at the USA Men’s Senior National against Uruguay basketball game yesterday?
Hey guys, we got a lot of emails asking for MORE Emily King. Initially, we thought most of you guys already knew about her since we did an “ARTIST TO WATCH” post on her music earlier this year (guess we were wrong! lol). Also, I recommend you check out that great album review post Brian put up earlier this week. He streamed two songs from her new album, East Side Story (IN STORES NOW).
Her artist EPK is located above for your viewing pleasure and I also added another one of her songs entitled “Colorblind,” after the cut.
Makeda Barnes-Joseph, 23, (above) spoke with The New York Daily News earlier this week as she recovers from being shot twice in the stomach, allegedly by rapper Remy Ma.
“I sit here and I try to think every day, ‘Why is she doing that?’ How can she deny that?’” the 23-year-old realty office administrative assistant told the New York Daily News. “I’m basically confined to the bed now. It’s really hard. It really hurts.”
Barnes-Joseph says she currently has to see a physical therapist every other day, and she also spoke about her disdain for rapper Foxy Brown.
“They feel that they can do whatever they want and get away with it,” fumed Barnes-Joseph. “They think that because they’re rappers that they need to make a name for themselves.”
A great man once said opinions are like a**holes…everyone’s got one. However, some people like to let their butt out for from time to time - take Polow Da Don.
Since the controversy surrounding his comments towards white women and black women, Polow Da Don has been under hell fire. Allhiphop linked up with the producer for his response to the feedback he received against his views and being dubbed the “King Of White Girls”:
AllHipHop.com: So do you stand by your statements?
Polow Da Don: Oh definitely. It has nothing to do with me, these effects. I didn’t make this stuff up. Only thing where people got misled is that I said I prefer a White woman, and that’s not the case at all. Really, I date all types of women. It was a stage in my life when I started dating a lot of White women- that was just a stage in my life. Right now, I date girls I like. I don’t base it off of any shade or color when I meet a girl now. They linked my comments about the Black family and Black women with the “King of the White Girls” and [the fact that] I dated White girls. That’s where it all went wrong. So when I was comparing Black women to White women, that has zero to do with me dating White women. What I was saying was factual though. Ladies and gentlemen agreed, n****s and b******s got mad.
