Breathe and Stop

Damn homie. . . slow down. . . take a deep breathe. I swear if music was a human being I would tell him/her that. Sumone needs to evolve music. At this moment, this shyt is terrible. U kno wat. . . Let me help by starting off with somethings that need the tombstone,

SWAGGER

If I hear this word one more time Im gonna lose my mind. This is the biggest problem of all the problems. There used to be a BALANCE where an artist had "swagger", but also had skills to back it up. I guess now all these rappers are rocking them classic 574's(Did U catch that?). Dudes care about their image more and thats why albums suck and dont sell. [DAVE CHAPPELLE MODE] Oh that dont scare U??? I didnt wanna tell U this but. . . they put Jim Jones in the hottest rappers in the game right now. . . Your Welcome LOL

THE "HIP HOP" SONG

ENOUGH ALREADY. Stop making songs about Hip Hop. JUST DO IT(Pun wasnt intended but these sneaker compaines need to give me a deal). Its been done 2 mant times. And with that said, next up must be like part 2 or sum shyt cause its like the "Hip Hop" song but its :

THE "IM BRINGING NY BACK" SONG

Thats a heavy burden homie. No need to really write about this. Its the same as the last song.

Hey Young World

Aight folks so im doing my daily look thru of Myspace for something i might like to meet lol and tell me why i get about 4 different friend request all from chics my age and younger (20 if you dont know) who all had two or more kids. Whats REALLY good world. Now honestly anyone close to me knows that i want kids myself (Skyy luv da kids lol) but age my current age....HELL NO. IMO 20-25 should be years to enjoy your youth (safely of course), finish school, chill with your friends, party, shit even sleep around if you want(SAFELY)but there is no reason females 20 years old should have more kids than my mother. Just randum thoughts for the day...

More details on this whole T.I. ordeal, apparently these are some on what was found in Tip's crib...



And here's more details on the Raid courtesy of Miss Info.

“ATF agents simultaneously broke down the front door while smashing out windows in the back of the house and tossing stun grenades into the house. King, 3, was in a downstairs room playing at the time of the raid. The other children had just left the home to go to acting class. I’m told T.I.’s 15-year-old nephew ran out the back door and was tackled and stomped by ATF agents.

While agents found T.I.’s gun collection in his bedroom safe, no drugs were found in the home.”

Big Things Poppin'

...and lil shit stoppin'...it might indeed be a wrap for T.I. Here's details on what went down courtesy of Allhiphop.

Prosecutors will charge the rapper with possession of unregistered machine guns and possession of firearms by a convicted felon, after a federal investigation revealed the rapper was allegedly trying to purchase machine guns in Atlanta.


According to documents released by the ATF, the investigation started 11-days ago, when the rapper's bodyguard asked a licensed gun dealer at The Gun Store about buying a machine gun and not registering it, as required by law.


On October 2, the dealer reported the incident to the ATF who started an investigation and provided a fictitious cellphone number to an undercover agent posing as a machine gun dealer.


Eight days later on October 10, Harris called the bodyguard to pick up $12,000 in cash to buy the weapons. The bodyguard met the undercover agent at a K-Mart in Doraville.


T.I.'s bodyguard then gave the agent $2,200 and a .223-caliber pistol in exchange for three 9mm machine guns and two 9mm silencers.


Federal agents then arrested the bodyguard, who revealed he was buying the guns for T.I. and that he had purchased almost 25 firearms over the past 18 months for the rapper, who is a convicted felon and legally barred from owning firearms.


In one incident in September, the bodyguard claims that the rapper gave him cash to purchase a Calico 9mm from The Gun Store.


After legally purchasing the weapon, T.I. allegedly invited the bodyguard into his bedroom, where the rapper showed the man a walk in safe with a finger-print scanner, tall enough for a person to enter.


Inside of the safe were a number of assault rifles in black duffle bags.


In another incident in September, T.I. asked the bodyguard to purchase a .500 caliber Smith & Wesson revolver, which was allegedly given to Grand Hustle rapper Alfamega, who then delivered the weapon to T.I.


The next day, on October 11, the cooperating bodyguard called another bodyguard working for T.I. to discuss security services while agents were listening.


During the conversation, T.I. grabbed the phone and the bodyguard allegedly told the rapper he had "everything for you [referring to T.I.]"


On October 12, Harris called the cooperating bodyguard while federal agents listened and arranged to pick up the guns the next day.


On October 13, around 1:00 PM, T.I. called the bodyguard and asked him to bring the guns to a recording studio.


At the behest of ATF agents, the bodyguard arranged to meet in the shopping center parking lot in Atlanta.


The rapper arrived at the parking lot and the bodyguard, who was wired, entered T.I.'s vehicle.


The bodyguard asked the function of a silencer to which T.I. replied "No Flash, no bang."


T.I. then asked the bodyguard what the "E" meant on one of the machine guns.


The bodyguard explained that the "E" meant semi-automatic mode, while the "F" meant fully automatic function, which T.I. Allegedly acknowledged.


The rapper inquired about ammunition, the capacity of the magazines and any change that might be left over from the purchase.


Federal agents then arrested T.I. without incident, recovering three firearms, including one between the drivers seat the center console.


T.I.'s girlfriend Tameka "Tiny" Cottle and Grandhustle rappers Mac Boney and Young Dro were also arrested.


While Mac Boney and Young Dro were not charged with any crimes and released, Cottle, who was a member of the all-girl band Xscape, was charged with possession of marijuana and the drug Ecstasy.


A subsequent search of T.I.'s home recovered three rifles, two pistols and a revolver in the walk-in closet and safe in his bedroom.


Five of the firearms were loaded.


T.I. was held in federal custody over the weekend on two felony charges: possession of unregistered machine guns and possession of firearms by a convicted felon.



Damn Kid...even Tiny got caught up in it. Why mess when everything is going good for you? I mean what are the guns for, protection? Aint that what your bodyguards are there for? SMH

Survival of the Fittest

Prodigy AKA V.I.P (The P Stands For Prisoner) pleaded guilty to a gun charge and gets 3 1/2...

Rapper Prodigy pleaded guilty to criminal possession of a loaded gun Tuesday in a deal that will put him behind bars for the next 3-1/2 years.

The 32-year-old Queens native interrupted his trial in Manhattan Supreme Court to admit to owning the unlicensed .22-caliber pistol found in an armrest of his bulletproofed Chevy Suburban last October in Chelsea.

For A Reason

So Im surfing my regular sites and come across this...


Rapper Joe Budden is no longer signed to Def Jam Records after being heralded as one of its most promising acts in the early 2000’s.


The rapper said he was pleased to be leaving the label and looked forward to the next steps in his career.


"I'm just happy we were finally able to cut all ties. I feel like I have all the talent in the world, but for some reason was never able to showcase it there,” Budden told AllHipHop.com. “I'm looking forward to whatever God has in store for me, and Joe Budden fans should know - today is a beautiful day."

"(Music Playing) Honey, check it out, you got me mesmerized
With your black hair and fat-ass thighs
Street poetry is my everyday
But yo, I gotta stop when you trot my way
If I was workin at the club you would not pay
Aiyyo, my man Phife Diggy, he got somthin to say...."

Straight to the Bank

So I'm sure we've all heard of the book, Confessions of a Video Vixen, by Karrine Steffans. Some may have even read the book but the woman who proudly declines the title of "a lady," is at it again with her latest installment, The Vixan Diaries!
Why is this worth talking about?

Well, Jamie Foxx has a XM Radio station and recently had Karrine Steffans live On Air and besides the lengthy interview, it was FULL of laughs, jokes, a lot of randumbnezz.
She talks about the old and new book, she addresses several rumors including the allegedly Gay celebrity figures including The Rap City Alumni, BIG TIGGA!....Tigga even calls into the show! LISTEN TO THE WHOLE SHOW!!!! I was kinda pissed off that homegirl calls herself a role model for other rape victims.... WOW! I feel as though the whole idea of her writing these books to out these celeb guys and try to eliminate the double standard is bull. All she's doing is exploiting these celebrities figures to continue to pay on her crib down the street from Eddie Murphy. But I'm done talking. Bottom line is, Karrine bka Superhead is laughing "Straight to the Bank" because all of this is funny and defly for the money.
