Jay-Z Gets Dissed, Madonna Finds a New Muse, Foxy Brown Goes Missing

7/9/07, 2:29 pm EST

  • Today in Detroit, rap legends Kurtis Blow and Eric B. will attend the funeral of their former friend, the “N” word. The mock burial is just one of the many hip-hop-centric events taking place at the 98th annual NAACP convention. Yesterday, NAACP chairman Julian Bond took umbrage with Jay-Z, saying, “I heard somebody say that when Jay-Z talks about ho’s, he gets a gold record. When Don Imus talks about ho’s, he gets fired. We believe in equal justice and equal justice for everyone.”
  • Gogol Bordello’s Eugene Hutz will take his collaboration with Madonna from the Live Earth stage to the Sundance Film Festival as he stars in the Material Mom’s directorial debut, Filth & Wisdom. Meanwhile, Madonna’s f-bomb dropping on the Wembley stage pissed off 123 sensitive Brits.
  • Weeks after being assaulted and refusing to testify against her alleged attackers, Foxy Brown is missing. She was last seen boarding a flight from NYC to London. Update! Evidently she was already found. Panic over.
  • Hours after Russian file-sharing site Allofmp3.com was shut down following demands by the U.S. government, Mp3sparks.com, a mirror site, emerged. It’s no coincidence that both sites are run by the same company.

To Ellejaye,
I actually did look into the Live Earth website, and yes, I even watched a bit of the shows, hoping to catch some of the Smashing Pumpkins, Foo Fighters, and Linkin Park (all great bands by the way), and yes, I got the point. Watching rock stars play a couple of songs totally made me so much more aware of Global Warming (that’s sarcasm by the way). What a bunch of crap! If you read my post carefully, that is if you can read at all, I support and back those who want to protect the environment, even with reasonable government protection laws and regulations, HOWEVER, I question the true motives of one man, Al Gore. That’s the issue I am raising. I don’t care if Hollywood or rock stars want to recycle and drive hybrids. But I’m certainly not going to do anything just because a celebrity said so. And if you do change just because some celebrity or politician tells you to, then you are the ignorant one my friend. When you decide to stop being a hippie and actually grow into adulthood, let me know. Have a nice day on your crusade against Global Warming.

Hey Wonderwail,
You know, you just kinda missed it. The whole point. You are obviously very young, or just plain ignorant. You notice that I didn’t say “dumb”, I stopped using that word about 35 years ago. Did you visit the web site, or were you too involved with video games? Fortunately for the Earth, most of us adult kind of people get our info from more than one source. That just makes sense to assholes like us. We know that global warming is not a political issue. It’s just a problem that us assholes will do our best to change. The Iraq war IS a political issue, and while most of us oppose the war, WE SUPPORT AND APPRECIATE the 18 year old grown ups who are willing to put their lives on the line daily for our freedom. Why don’t you write back in a few years when you are all grown up. Question: How many Wonderwails does it take to change a regular lightbulb to a CFL??

I am glad to see people are starting to wise up a little to this global warming thing. whether it is real or not is debateable, but the source is just so transparent. Al Gore comes from no where to tell us something we already know about, and gets hollywood’s backing. i have no idea why this douche gets any credit for this. and yes, he uses scare tactics and arrogant rhetoric to make his point. To quote southpark, al gore “is a huge loser that needs attention.”

To Shultz,
I’ll always be the first to admit that I may not have infinite wisdom, but I do have common sense, and throwing a huge 24 hour concert event isn’t going to solve any crisis, whether it’s for Global Warming or for AIDS and starvation in Africa. As far as what advice I may give to anyone, well, simply don’t start looking for a moral code or compass from ANY politician, especially one who claims to have invented the internet! And can we all be honest? Yes, protecting the environment is good, however, can we trust the words of a politician? Am I the only one who feels that Gore is doing this more for some sort of gain (financial, potentially political)? I just can’t trust any of these guys. But the best advice is to make up your own mind.

Johnny Kickass | 7/9/2007, 4:58 pm EST

You know how to solve the whole issue with the n-word?

Simple: just stop pretending to find it offensive.

Because you don’t. You’ve just been told your whole life you’re supposed to find it SO OFFENSIVE, but nobody really does.

Same goes with ho, bitch, and any other slur. It’s rude and crass and should be avoided I guess just out of consideration…but c’mon, how old are you?

It’s also a double-standard how anyone can talk shit about anglo-saxon white males - people do in the media and academia all the time - but if a WASP says something about a ‘minority’ - watch out! Fire him! Report it non-stop in the media for days! It’s complete bullshit.

Tits | 7/9/2007, 4:57 pm EST

Wonderwall is absolutely correct. Schultz, you need to wake up and do some actual research instead of getting your “facts” from a silly movie.

Cliff | 7/9/2007, 4:57 pm EST

That was funny but jays is way too cool….lol Mushroom villians…that was funny.

Schultz | 7/9/2007, 4:52 pm EST

Wonderwall - my question is why bash when all you do is bitch? Gotta better solution? Conservative or liberal, why not share your infinite wisdom in a constructive manner you git.

NYC Nate | 7/9/2007, 4:50 pm EST

Nathan, I’m not sure what a ho is, either. Although, I learned through online courses at the Snoop Dogg Academy for Ebonics Training and Integration (the SDA for ET and I), that I should have “no love fo’ no ho’s.” And now I earn up to $2,000 a month as a Certified Dental Assistant. These courses really DO WORK!! *smile*

w0nderwall | 7/9/2007, 4:44 pm EST

Live Earth was dumb. Are you telling me that a band plays 3 to 5 songs each and now we’re all of the sudden supposed to changed the way we live? I don’t mind concert gigs and I love music as much as the next person, but this Global Warming thing is just as dumb as the Iraq War. Keep in mind you good liberals that when Bush uses fear to get his way with the War in Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Patriot Act, Gore is no different because he uses fear as a propaganda tool. Now don;t you libs feel stupid? By the way, I am no conservative, so if you’re going to respond, keep that in mind assholes.

abandonedstation | 7/9/2007, 4:04 pm EST

A mock burial of the n-word? Yeah, that’s gonna appeal to the alienated black youth in the ghetto. At least stage a drive by shooting of the n-word to make it a bit more relevant for the people this event is supposed to speak to…

Gotta hand it to Madonna. She can still anger a country that shrugs off terrorist bombings…

Illegal downloading truly is like the Greek monster, the Hydra. In other words, there’s only one way to stop it: Fire. And lots of it.

SATAN, you are referring to goombas. And yes, it kinda does.

SATAN | 7/9/2007, 3:40 pm EST

is it just me, or does Jay-Z’s nose look like one of the mushroom villian’s from the Super Mario Brothers on original nintendo

Nathan | 7/9/2007, 3:37 pm EST

What’s a ho?

I hate Mike Anthony | 7/9/2007, 2:59 pm EST
