Weezy's Officially LOCKED UP

Yesterday marked the first day of Lil' Waynes 1 year vacation at Rikers Island Prison...interestingly, Lil' Wayne requested to serve his sentence with the general population instead protective custody.

Even though defense lawyer Stacey Richman initially claimed that city officials
were forcing the rapper into protective custody, it turns out he’s going into a
regular cellblock. Correction Department spokesman Stephen Morello said the
“Lollipop” singer will have “general population escort” status.
That means he’ll be escorted by a correction captain when outside of his housing unit just like gang members. Inside, he’s free to socialize under the watchful eye of
guards with the 17 men on his cellblock – or stay locked in his cell.
“It’s his choice,” Morello said.
He said the agency never got a request from Lil Wayne to be treated like any other inmate – and Richman conceded she never made one because she assumed it would be shot down.

(n): LMFAO Uhm, poor Weezy F Baby...I'm not sure his manning up and requesting general population was the smartest choice...aren't there rumors that even Tupac was raped in Jail? Weezie's lil petite self w/ his flowing dreadlocks might not be spared such shame...but then again maybe he will, maybe he's "suwoooped" enough that he's already part of one flamed association that would then render him protection, nevertheless I wish him the best; he is, undoubtedly, my favorite rapper in all his eccentric glory, his wordplay is unmatched...Maino predicts that Weezy will find Allah and join the Nation of Islam while he's locked up. I don't necessarily think he'll go that route, but I'm sure he'll come out with sooooooooooooo many bars and moreso hope he'll come out a better man...1 day down 364 to go ;-)

Get off Allen Iverson's Back!!!!

"The Allen Iverson(notes) saga keeps going from bad to worse. Denver was awkward. Detroit was a disaster. Memphis was worse. But that's all on-the-court stuff. Now things are falling apart in Iverson's personal life.
Iverson recently left Philadelphia in order to care for his sick daughter. That's not good. Even worse, his wife has filed for divorce. In an amazing exposé by the Philadelphia Inquirer's Stephen A. Smith and Bill Ordine, the reasons behind Iverson's fall from grace are examined.
Of course, there's talk of Iverson's legal problems, but then Smith and Ordine drop a bombshell.
One NBA source said yesterday that when Iverson was traded from the Denver Nuggets to the Detroit Pistons in 2008, "he practically lived in the casinos." Numerous sources said he was banned from two of the three casinos in Detroit.
"Drinking and the casinos: Allen was always doing one thing, or was at the other," an Eastern Conference executive said last night. "No one who knows him can deny it."
Furthermore, the writers say that Iverson "has been troubled by excessive drinking." It's just bad all around. Larry Brown, one of the few people who ever really "got" Iverson, sums up the effect that this will have on Iverson's legacy." -courtesy of Yahoo!

(L): I feel sooooo bad for AI! I hate how the media tries to kick someone when they are already down. Why not just let him live and make his mistakes without the scrutiny of the media. I love you AI, I got your back :)

(n): I used to think Iverson was the cutest thing walking when I was young and naive and in the dark about the tendencies of many professional athletes...I think the recent turn of events for him and his family is rather unfortunate, but I don't think he should be spared by any means. What they do in the dark will and should come out in the light. He shouldn't have been skeezn...now he is a walking example to the rest of'em. I do, however, hope he can reconcile things with his wife...I hope he's learned his lesson and I hope his baby girl gets well soon....

Rih on GMA

(n): Dang. I feel for her...and am happy she did this. It's a shame that some people are discrediting her saying that she's coming out 3 weeks before her album drops to help with her album sales. I'm asking "so what"...her tragic break up was exposed to the entire world...why can't she get some positive outcome from it. I hope she sales 5 million records and I commend her for her honesty and her courage and her integrity. Shes' dope as hell, I'm gonna break bread and actually purchase this album too...

JayZ and Alicia @ The World Series

This is a tad bit late but relevant nonetheless...the video footage of Jay and Alicia performing at the World Series last week:

(n): Gosh, this song makes me want to be from NY when I listen to it...up to about 5 seconds until after it's over...then I go back to Reppin Killa CALI!!!!! Yeeeeeeee!!! But I thought this was a real dope performance. I'm not sure if it's the stadiums size, or the fact that the fans weren't allowed to rock out on the field, but the response from the crowd seemed kind of wack/dead. Not to mention the smirks on the actual Yankee's faces...are they deaf or something? I don't know, but if I was a Yank, I'd have been so pumped...I think...

LOL@T-Pain

So funny...Media Take Out Posted this picture of T-Paine who made a very interesting T-shirt choice...

(n): That's hella Cassie bwahahahahahaahaha feel shitty. I feel so bad for her...I can only imagine what she feels like...okay...I sorta KNOW what she feels like. But this is a super disrespectful (yet comical) move for this dude. As artists and entertainers these guys should know about improper exploitation and the incessant breach of privacy they've got to endure...he just made it that much worse...Karma's a BIYATCH...He must have forgotten that.

Antoine Walker BROKE????

Antoine Walker’s mom says Antoine is not broke and has his home. But Antoine Walker was arrested for gambling debts in July, the Boston Globe claims he owes $4.5 million in debts, and he has no current NBA deal.
Yes, but Antoine Walker still has his home. While it’s not clear how much his house is worth, Antoine Walker’s alleged debts include the following. JP Morgan wants $1.5 million from Walker. Wachovia wants $1.5 million. American Express wants only $53,000. And Walker’s agent, correction former agent, wants $450,000. And then there are the casinos, which claim Antoine Walker wrote them fake checks; those casinos want $1 million. And one last party remains - Las Vegas prosecutors. They want Walker to face three felony counts of drawing and passing checks without sufficient funds with intent to defraud.
Walker has no current NBA contract. The Grizzlies released him last year. He has yet to comment about the charges.(Courtesy of news.lalate.com)

(L) OMGSH how did this guy go from being one of the great guys in the league to this! I dont understand how you can have a million dollars in your hand at one point to going broke! don't people know about money markets and cd's and investing etc. It must really suck to not have money and not even know when your next paycheck is coming(if it is coming) I hope Antoine figures it all out, and I hope it works out for him. everyone makes mistakes...

(n): I'm happy you gave a little explanation of who this guy is, cuz I had no idea...I need to brush up on my NBA knowledge (then again maybe not)...but I'm not even surprised by how irresponsible this guy was with his money...there have been countless "stars/athletes" before him to blow their millions frivolously, he's just fallen in line and fueled that stereotype. These guys think they can go from broke to managing their own money...while many can, it's best for most to utilize the financial advisers that come calling after the deals are signed...maybe one day someone will actually look at all these fails and make a wise decision with their earnings...maybe...one day...
