I think of all the crews in Hip Hop history that made an impact that changed the direction of a sound. The crews that come to mind are The get Fresh Crew, NWA, and The Wu-Tang Clan. Although these crews ended up disbanding for one reason or another. They always seems to stick in your mind. Lucky for us, Rap is so hot, that my favorite crew of all time has re-banded.
So without delay. I must bring you some classics Wu-Tang videos.

A must see film. I had a chance to see a private screening and I must say Taraji P. Henson has the ability to snatch words off the page, turn them into her heart, and break the boundaries of movie making and reality.
From what I hear she is the talk, and I do not have a problem adding to that talk.
Brad Pitt rocks his role in this film as well. So I am sure Oscar will be knocking down the doors of these two. If not, I will boycott the award show, who tend to jump on the bandwagon of their favorites.
Taraji was recently stopped at the SAG awards and here is what she had to say about the film.
“It’s an epic, that’s all I can say. It’s an epic. It’s like a modern-day Gone with the Wind. They don’t make films like this anymore. It’s beautiful to watch. The cinematography is going to blow you away. The message, the story… I mean, in the screenings grown men had to collect themselves before they could get up and leave. It’s one of those movies that will touch you in ways you’ve never been touched in a long time in film.”

All I need to say to his is. Alicia Will you marry me?
When it comes to great musicians in American Pop Culture, the bar is met but rarely raised. When we have such a musical genius they deserve our attention to the full extent. David Sides is not only a pianist but one that take today hottest songs and turn them in to white keys, that are like melodic crack to the soul. Listen I am sure you will agree with me.

This dude is so lame. This is one reason why I started my own movement. No one can tell me what to do, how to do it, and in this case get in my way if they don't get their way.
Here are some thoughts from this weeks headlines.
The former “Access Hollywood” anchor described his early relationship with Lane as “flirtatious, unprofessional and improper” but said it soured after his wife, local Fox anchor Dawn Stensland, learned about it. The twice-divorced Lane, 36, vehemently denies any impropriety and has sued him for invasion of privacy and on other grounds.
The pair anchored the evening newscasts on KYW from 2004 to January, when Lane was fired after a Dec. 16 arrest in New York following a late-night scuffle with police. The charges were later dropped as part of a pretrial diversion program. She has a wrongful-termination suit pending against KYW.
Mendte leaked privileged e-mails about her criminal case to the press, and prosecutors say he is the only plausible source of damaging leaks concerning a swimsuit photo she sent a friend, married TV sports anchor Rich Eisen.
Mendte was fired in June, after the FBI searched his home and office.
“My role at the station was still being diminished when Alycia told me during an argument on the set that she (was) the rising star and that I was ‘50 and on my way out,”‘ Mendte said after his Aug. 22 plea to a single-count information.
“I felt I was in trouble,” he continued. “My career, my future, my family’s future was in trouble. And, this is where I got into more trouble — federal trouble.”
Mendte has two young children with Stensland and two older children from an earlier marriage. He earned $700,000 at KYW-TV, while Lane’s salary had zoomed past his to $780,000, according to her lawyer, Paul Rosen.
The FBI began investigating Mendte in the spring, when a station employee stumbled upon a computer that was logged into Lane’s private e-mail account — nearly two months after she was fired.
I am sure to get the fragrance! But let me state something to Diddy. Slow down and just coast.
It is rocking the movie theaters and it has taken every high school girl and turned her into a raving lunatic for its star. However it is more than just a hit, it is a compelling peace of work that you can dissect and read into as much as you like. Factors that always make for good home viewing.
It seems in 2005 Ja-Rule was somewhere attempting a comeback as rapper. What he should have been focusing on was promoting this film. Not too many people caught wind of this film( unless you watch BET 24/7) , which should have had a wider audience.
My feelings towards this film is simple. Ving Rhames, is the undisputed champion or the world when it comes to acting chops. He has more range than steve Nash on fire, and Michael Phelps on Red Bull. ALongside him was Ja-Rule a budding actor with a bad rep in the music game. Talk about transfering the pain from one area to the other. It was well done for a full length feature film.
With that you end up with two actors playing off of one another until the final product is filled with realism and grit. Although I admit the production is lame, and the director did not have the vision to make this what it could have been. The lighting was not edgy enough and it did not match the mood they were aiming for. The editing was choppy, and the overal production was childs play. Underneath it all if you have the eyes to see, and are willing to remake this film you will end of with an epic story of what it is like growing up on the fence.
So I do recommend somone save this film from the bargain bin and obscurity.
Here is what the actor had to say when interviewed about his sex Scene with Fresh Prince of Bel-Air alum Tatyana Ali. "It's a little awkward. They try to keep it so you're as comfortable as possible, but even with closed sets it's still 10 people there. And Tatyana's mom and her aunt were there. It made my job a little harder."
The heat did not stop there, Ja Stated, "My wife didn't like that one. She wasn't there for the sex scene."

WHO THE F CARES? Seriously why is it that all we do is point this girls life out. It is about time to move on. Then again her name, her fame, her life, her apparent love for Ronson and Booze, is a cash cow.
I am filing this one under Dumb shit!
