Brawl at Bethune Cookman University



As reported to AP (Associated Press), 5 people were injured and 1 arrested yesterday at Bethune-Cookman University after a massive brawl broke out. The entire incident took place after a sprinkler went off due to someone hanging clothes off it in Bronson Hall. Approximately 150 students were ordered to evacuate. Several fights broke out after being denied access back into the on-campus facility.
A student, Curtis Fluker, was charged with criminal mischief for throwing the chair through the window, causing $1000 in damages. Staff officials at the school are currently conducting an investigation to find out the exact cause of the disruption.

Page Turner:: 50 Cent's New Book





If you're an avid urban book reader, then this isn't the first time you've seen 50's name on the front of a paperback. This is, though, the first time we've seen his name on the front cover along with the great Robert Greene (author of 48 Laws of Power and The Art of Seduction).

50 teams up with Greene to expand a little on the book known to many rappers as the hustler's bible(48 Laws)and creats a new handbook that merges the mind of a hustler with a strategy expert.

"In The 50th Law, hip hop and pop culture icon 50 Cent (aka Curtis Jackson) joins forces with Robert Greene, bestselling author of The 48 Laws of Power, to write a "bible" for success in life and work based on a single principle: fear nothing. With intimate stories from 50 Cent's life on the streets and in the boardroom as he rose to fame after the release of his album Get Rich or Die Tryin', as well as examples of others who have overcome adversity through understanding and practicing the 50th Law, this deeply inspirational book is perfect for entrepreneurs as well as anyone interested in the extraordinary life of Curtis Jackson. "(SOURCE)


Check out the exclusive interview of how the 50/Greene team came about and the process of the book here.

Love Is In The Air


The Love Bug is on a serious attack mission in the Kardashian family. Rumors have been circulating for a few weeks that Kim K. and Reggie Bush are officially back together, and now we have photographic proof! Somebody musta felt really neglected when she realized that all the attention have been going to the married one and the one with a bundle of joy on the way. Word has it, that she hopped on the first than smokin' to N.O. right after Khloe's wedding (hehe).

All in all, I'm glad those 2 are back together. They compliment each other very well. Here's a pic of these 2 hanging out this weekend.

Diddy Ditches His Label



If you were expecting to cop Diddy's upcoming “Last Train to Paris” album, then you might wanna sit back and relax for a little while. That collection of songs wont hit shelves anytime this month like it was originally planned. Diddy recently resleased a statement confirming his plans for splitting with Warner/Atlantic Records.

"Now that the term of the Warner deal has ended, I have elected to accept an opportunity to move my recording career and future label venture to another company," Diddy said in a statement to Billboard Magazine.


It looks as though Diddy maybe joining Interscope's roster, which will make him lablemate to stars such as 50 Cent, Lady Gaga, and Eminem.

As for acts currently signed to Bad Boy, Diddy's departure will have no effect on their current contracts.

Its....Yo....Birthday!!



Yesterday, Lil Wayne celebrated his 27th Birthday with his 'Daddy' and family. Baby presented his 'son' with a million-dollar diamond encrusted Chopard watch. In addition to the watch, Wayne and friends popped bottles of Dom PĂ©rignon and munched on a cake that was laced with ice. Happy belated, Weezy!




We ALSO, would like to wish a happy birthday to Melody Thornton (of the Pussycat Dolls) today! This past weekend she celebrated her 25th at Beso Restaurant with family and friends out in Hollywood, CA.




Mr. & Mrs. Lamar Odom!





Here are just a few shots we found on the wedding that we all weren't sure was gonna actually happen. From the looks of it, Lauren London, Kendall and Kylie Kardashian, and Kadijah and Malika Haqq (The Twins from the movie ATL) were decked out in Vera Wang bridesmaids dresses. The newly weds were serenaded by Babyface at the reception ceremony and Kobe and Vanessa Bryant even grabbed the mic to bless them on their future. A gang of pics, but no pic of the bride and groom....INTERESTING!

It doesn't look like the Odom family were anywhere in sight. I always wondered how they felt about this lil situation anyway. Guess we know the real deal now! I have a feeling, drama is on its way.

Video:: Birdman, Lil Wayne, & Drake's "Money To Blow"

The old saying out with the old and in with the new does NOT apply to this crew. Veteran Baby, of the original Cash Money group hits us with a new single off of his upcoming album Pricele$$ (Nov. 24). To contradict that 'out with the old...' saying, he lends the mic to members of the new Young Money, Wayne and Drake.

Looks to me like its about to be a 'Money' takeover. Check it!

Mashonda Tells Alicia to Grow Up!



So Alicia Keys thought she was slick by posting this to her followers on Twitter:

"Having a heated debate n the studio. Question is…N love is it better to go 4 the choice that is ‘SMART’ or the choice that has ‘SPARK’??"

If you are familiar with the whole drama of Alicia being the alleged reason for Swizz's and Mashonda's divorce then you know Miss Ex-Beatz had to feel as if this was somehow directed to her.

Moments after Alicia's tweet, Mashonda fires back with:

"After having a great evening with my son and enjoying some fun twit chat, I decided to sign off and get some work done. However, a few hours later I was advised that I should check @aliciakeys twit page. I’ve never reached out to her on twitter before. I feel our issues are a lot more serious than a website conversation. Not to mention that I’ve reached out to her many times in the beginning of this whole thing, as any wife would do. Unfortunately, I never succeeded in getting a response. The 1st time I meet AK, my husband introduced us to each other at an event. ( I have no choice but to call him my husband, until he is not anymore) In the messages that I sent to her (AK), I made it very clear that on the contrary of what she might be hearing, I am still married to my husband, living with him and just had a child. Its been two years and I still have not received a response. What I do receive, is constant displays of selfishness and disconcern to me and my son.

I was a fan of AK’s last album, we were both signed to J Records and I always checked up on her projects. I sang her songs and admired her for creating Superwoman and Karma, I would never deny her, her talent. I believed in her until I found out she was possibly sleeping with my husband. The affair was denied by both, until it was finally admitted months later.

Already I can hear some of you saying ” why are u blaming her, You cant make someone leave their wife, You cant break something thats broken”. Well, my marriage

was not broken, as far as I knew we were celebrating our sons birth and getting ready to celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary . Call it blind love, whatever. I call it being a devoted wife.. As far as me blaming her and not blaming him, thats false. Me and my husband have worked out our differences. We are in a good place as people and as parents. I accept his choices and I am comfortable enough with myself to move on. I am so very blessed in many ways.

My concern with AK is no longer the fact that she assisted in destroying a family but that she has the audacity to make these selfish comments about love and wanting to be with someone, even after knowing their situation. How is this the same Superwoman that I sang out loud with in my truck? I ask myself sometimes.

If you are reading this Alicia, let me start by saying, you know what you did. You know the role you played and you know how you contributed to the ending of my marriage. You know that I asked you to step back and let me handle my family issues. Issues that you helped to create.

Im not saying everything was perfect all the time but no relationship is perfect. We made a vow to God and I believe you should have respected that, as a woman. I know you owe me or my son nothing but I just wish you would’ve handled things more carefully. I’m not judging you, I put you and the whole situation in the hands of God, the Higher Power. Just know that as a woman, I expected so much more from you. I never had intentions on reaching out to you this way but after reading your twits tonight, and the constant disregard, you left me no choice. I feel that after 1 and a half years of you hiding this affair and acting like it doesnt exist, that now is the time to confront it, since you talk so openly about it now

This is not a publicity stunt, I dont have a record coming out. I just need to close this chapter in my life and that means confronting our issues. There is a small child involved. His dad loves him to death and he wants to spend more time with him but hes afraid because he knows we don’t have a relationship. This is my main concern. My son NEEDS his dad and I NEED to be comfortable with you. For him!

I know many will see my point and many will not be able to look into what’s real because they only want to see Alicia Keys the celebrity, not the human. This is not for the “people”, this is for you. Like I said I was left no choice but to reach out to you this way. By now, Im sure you want to find a balance in this as well.

I read your tweets tonight and I felt they were very insensitive. You have no idea how much pain I was caused because of this affair. Its baffling to me that you don’t understand what I might have gone through with this situation. I dont consider myself a victim anymore, Ive learned alot from this! I just ask you to try and be a bit more realistic and delicate to the situation, at least until my divorce is final. I felt me attending the party would have been a starting point for us, since you shook my hand after I offered it, but I suppose I was wrong.

If its so, that you and my husband are meant to be together, then God bless you both and I hope you never have to deal with what I did. I would not wish it on my worst enemy. If you two being together forever is the case, its more of a reason for us to get along, because I’m not going anywhere. Theres a child to be raised.

To answer your tweet, choose smart over spark. Sparks burn everyone, be smart! Its simple actually, just think of the shobeing on the other foot.

Stay blessed and lets work this thing out with respect and dignity."If you are familiar with the whole drama of Alicia being the alleged reason for Swizz's and Mashonda's divorce then you know Miss Ex-Beatz had to feel as if this was somehow directed to her.


Very lady-like for Mashonda.....we likes.

Lions end losing streak





DETROIT -- Finally, the Detroit Lions are winners.

With rookie Matthew Stafford leading the way, Detroit ended a 19-game losing streak with a 19-14 victory over the Washington Redskins on Sunday.The Lions (1-2) had not won since Dec. 23, 2007 and their skid matched the second longest in NFL history. They no longer will have to hear about closing in on Tampa Bay's record 26-game losing streak set during the 1976-77 seasons."We've still got a long way to go, but we've got a quarterback, and that's a big piece of the puzzle," said Lions vice chairman Bill Ford, whose father owns the team.Stafford threw a 21-yard touchdown pass to Bryant Johnson in the first quarter and Detroit added a fourth-quarter score after a pass interference penalty. Then the Lions had to hold off the Redskins' final drive.When the game ended, the Lions earned a chance to celebrate nine months after becoming the first NFL team to finish 0-16 in the regular season."We went a whole season without feeling like this, so you have to take it in and enjoy," center Dominic Raiola said. "We know it is the first of many, but it is still the first."Stafford didn't watch the final snap, holding his head down on the bench."I'm 100 times more nervous when I'm watching from the bench than when I'm playing, so I figured I'd just let the crowd noise tell me what happened," Stafford recalled. "When it got really quiet, I couldn't take it, so I looked up, and saw them running, and then the tackle, and then I saw the clock was at zero."Raiola couldn't watch either, but when it was over he blew kisses to the crowd of 40,896 that was the smallest at Ford Field and the fewest to watch a Lions home game in 20 years.Washington (1-2) pulled within five points on Jason Campbell's second touchdown pass with 2:36 left in the game, but couldn't prevent the Lions from picking up a first down that ran time off the clock and cost it three timeouts.The Redskins had their last of many chances to win from their 22 with 1:05 left and got to the Detroit 24 when time expired.Washington wasted opportunities throughout to avoid the embarrassment of losing to the lowly Lions and embattled coach Jim Zorn will likely be pressed for answers as he was a week ago after an unimpressive 9-7 win over St. Louis."It don't matter if Joe Gibbs was here or any All-Star coach, they're still going to point fingers," said defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth, who hurt his right hip in the first half and returned to play in the third quarter.Are the Redskins still behind Zorn, who is in his second season as their head coach?"I hope so," Haynesworth said. "You only have one head coach. I can't speak for everybody else, but I am."The Lions built a 13-0 lead at halftime with Stafford's TD pass to Johnson, Jason Hanson's two field goals -- including one to end the first half -- and Washington's zero yards rushing.A week after struggling inside the 10 and barely beating the Rams, Washington was held scoreless on its opening drive despite a first-and-goal from the 9. Clinton Portis was denied on fourth down from the 1 by rookie linebacker DeAndre Levy, who started in Ernie Sims' place."I didn't think we'd be denied getting in the end zone and we were," Zorn said. "But there was no way a team could drive 99 yards on us was my thought."Detroit did.The Lions drove 99 yards on 12 plays over nearly 6 minutes, capping the impressive drive with Johnson's fantastic catch on a high throw in the end zone from Stafford.The Lions went ahead 10-0 -- as they did last week before losing to Minnesota -- on Hanson's 39-yard field goal midway through the second quarter. Hanson's 26-yard kick at the end of the first half gave the Lions a 13-0 lead.Washington suddenly showed signs of life on offense in the second half, going 73 yards to pull within six points on Campbell's 57-yard pass to Santana Moss, but it was too late.Zorn chose to punt on a fourth-and-3 from the Detroit 44 early in the fourth quarter and the Lions scored a TD on the ensuing possession to go ahead 19-7 with 5:26 left in the game.The key moment of the pivotal drive came when Chris Horton was called for pass interference against Johnson, giving Detroit a 47-yard gain and the ball at the 1 to set up Maurice Morris' TD run.Washington responded with a TD drive, but it allowed Stafford to connect with tight end Will Heller to convert a third down on the ensuing possession and hurt its chances of a comeback.

This Just In:: Tim Tebow Leaves This Week's Game In An Ambulance!

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Florida quarterback Tim Tebow was taken to the UK Medical Center by ambulance after taking a shot to the head while being sacked in the third quarter of the No. 1 Gators' game against Kentucky at Commonwealth Stadium on Saturday night.

"We're going to find out more about Tim. We believe it is a concussion. He got hit pretty good, but that's one tough cat. Our team will pray for him and he'll be fine," coach Urban Meyer said during his postgame press conference.

Tebow's parents joined him at the hospital, and the team was unsure if he was going to be kept overnight.

Tebow, the 2007 Heisman Trophy winner, was sacked by Wildcats defensive end Taylor Wyndham on a third-and-6 play from the Kentucky 9. Tebow didn't appear to see Wyndham, who hit him squarely in the chest. As Tebow fell to the ground, the back of his head hit Gators tackle Marcus Gilbert's knee.

Tebow, a senior from Jacksonville, Fla., lay motionless on the turf for several seconds. He was eventually able to sit up, and was then helped to the Florida sideline by trainers and coaches, where his parents came down from the stands to join him. At one point, the entire Florida team was on the field to check on their star quarterback. Kentucky officials had a motorized cart and backboard in place to remove Tebow from the field.

With 12:41 left in the game, Tebow was taken off the field on a motorized cart. He appeared to vomit in a bag while he was being driven to the Gators' locker room.

Before he was hurt, Tebow completed 5 of 10 passes for 103 yards with one touchdown. He ran 16 times for 123 yards and two touchdowns.

The Gators kicked a 32-yard field goal after Tebow left the game, giving them a 34-7 lead with 3:45 to go in the third quarter. He was replaced by sophomore John Brantley, who has attempted 24 passes in two games.

A Florida official confirmed Saturday night that Tebow was one of four players who flew to Lexington, Ky., on one of three planes.

A charter plane carried most of the players to Lexington, Ky., on Friday afternoon. Tebow, defensive backs Joe Haden and Major Wright and receiver Riley Cooper, who were all suffering from respiratory illness, took a second plane later in the day. Five other players, including starting guard James Wilson and starting linebacker A.J. Jones, took a third plane. The Florida official said the five players were suffering from gastrointestinal illness.

Florida has an open date next week before facing No. 7 LSU on Oct. 10 in Baton Rouge.

LaLa Vazquez was spotted coming out of Bed Bath & Beyond this weekend. There is talk of her being a confirmed guest for Lamar and Khloe's 'wedding' tomorrow, so I guess she was doing her part in making sure not to show up empty handed.

She was also spotted this weekend having fun with the paparazzi as they caught her splashing water and suds on her Ranger Rover at a drive-thru car wash. FUN STUFF!

Kid Cudi:: A League of His Own



If you don't know, you better ask somebody bout 'Dat Kid From Cleveland'! Kid Cudi's debut album Man On The Moon: The End Of Day is a force to be reckoned with in this day and age of hip-hop. Plies' album was titled "The Definition of Real", but I think I'd give this one to the 'Kid this time around. Real is what you get when you listen to this instant classic given to us by Mr. Solo Dolo! Common even puts his stamp of approval on the album by lacing the 15-track disc with poetic interludes that instantly lets you know that Cudi is on a level far beyond rookie status. On every track, he openly expresses his wants and dreams for life in his very own sing-song storytelling style. You wont hear your typical zero-substance talk of chains, whips, and and over-sized egos on this album. Instead, you'll hear stories of his past and present journey to the so-called bigger and better life that money brings all over futuristic/spacey beats.
KiD CuDi brilliantly combined both new age and classic hip-hop with lyrics full of determination and sympathy. His flow come off ass relaxed but very exciting. All in all this record is very creative, unique and futuristic.

Our top 5 trax are:
1. The Sky Might Fall
2. Enter Galactic - If you can't do what you imagine then what is imagination to you?
3. The Soundtrack To My Life
4. Hyyer
5. My World / In my Dreams



Do yourself a favor and go cop this album RIGHT NOW!
