The Jena Six are a group of black students who are being charged with attempted murder for beating up a white student who was taunting them with racial slurs. A series of white-on-black incidents of violence happened before the final incident took place, but the black students are taking all the blame.
On September 20th Mychal Bell, one of the black teenagers awaiting sentencing in the Jena 6 Case will be appearing before a judge in a Louisiana court house. Bell could receive up to 22 years in prison for what amounted to nothing more then a fist fight between black and white high school students.
Michael will need all the support he can, so please check out the links below for more information.
So, Kanye West’s Graduation has leaked already. I’m sure you music savvy people have already gotten your mitts on the album. Graduation is just what I expected it to be - a good mixture of production and lyrics. It has some really great songs, but then it has its dull moments on certain songs, which sound like they could have appeared on Late Registration. But I am feeling the majority of the new material. Kanye tried some new things as far as production, but still stuck to his sampling guns. Stand out tracks include “I Wonder,” “Good Life,” “Flashing Lights,” and of course the host of singles that will be released from the album.
Diddy’s infamous white party was held this weekend in the Hamptons and word is some celebrities were turned away for not rocking the right color. According to AP news reports, Billy Joel’s wife Katie Lee showed up in shade of cream and Combs’ fashion police turned her away and another man was told to change his pants or he would have to leave.
Diddy on the party:
“This party is up there with the top three that I’ve thrown. It’s a party that has legendary status. It’s hard to throw a party that lives up to its legend.” [SOURCE]
Ashanti & Nelly didn’t let what Irv Gotti said last week get to them this weekend. They partied it up at various events over in St. Louis. The first photos are from the Club Social event hosted by Jermaine Dupri on Saturday and the photos below are from Nelly’s 2nd Annual Black & White Ball. Cute couple.
It was rumored that one of Wesley Snipes former non-black girlfriends didn’t have a problem when he had verbal interactions with white females but she often played interference when he spoke to black women, mainly African-American actresses at industry events.
Another non-black female has the same problem regarding her black NBA husband. She openly has a problem when she observes him having a discussion with black females but behind his back she often tells her friends, ‘I never have to worry about him creeping with black women, they don’t hold his attraction.’ This type of attitude makes her feel secure and better about herself. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but your man may give the impression to you and the media that he has rarely dated black women and he doesn’t have affairs with them BUT he is currently carrying on an affair with a stunning black woman out of state. He even put her through school and she has a high ranking six-figure position in her hometown. He tells his boys, “she’s my bottom mistress.” He even paraded her around during the All-Star game a few years ago and he openly held her hand in public. It’s rumored that he has her on an allowance (although she doesn’t need it) and in the past he gave her his black AMEX card to go shopping with on her birthday. He also bought her a customized Mercedes and he recently gifted her with Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdale credit cards. Infidelity is wrong but his wife needs to come out of her denial. Hint: You don’t have to be a sports fan to know who the NBA player is.
