R&B star arrested on gun charges...

Reports claim that R&B singer Lyfe Jennings, real name Chester Jennings was arrested on Sunday (19 October 08) and charged with gun offences in Smyrna, Georgia.

30-year-old Jennings was said to be looking for Joy Pound - the mother of his children, according to an arrest warrant the singer had kicked in the door of a house and fired a gun in the street.

Police had been in high speed pursuit of his red Corvette after getting reports of gunfire, when they finally did stop his vehicle Jennings refused a sobriety test.

The warrant is alleged to say the star had “had a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage” coming from his breath.
Reports claim that to get himself released he posted a $50,000 bond on Monday night, after being charged with gun offences, trespassing, eluding police and driving under the influence.

Jennings is no stranger to being on the wrong side of the law, having served ten years in prison for a felony charge when he was a teenager.

Okay... now having read that, doesn't it make seconds 0:17 - 0:22 of this video that much funnier?!
Its hilarious!!!
(look at Lyfe's face... its like he knew)

big things...

Everyone needs to go to the Animal House blog right now. My dudes just launched the new "Big Deal Project" and any support is appreciated. I actually sat and watched Jon work magic on photoshop for a little bit so I know how much hard work went into this project. The s**t's hot though. The end result is vicious. I'm glad I could be down.

My boss showed me these the other day. I had already seen the first one but the second one caught me way off gaurd. They're both pretty funny, though.


Get some... idiot.

recap... a little delayed.

Howard Homecoming last weekend was a little weird, to say the least. I don't really feeling going into detail but I'll show you some pics I took of the highlights.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MS. FRANCES!!!

I really don't even know what to say about you, love.
I laugh when I think about the first time we met...
And how crazy you are.
Hope you have a good birthday, babes.
I'll see you later.

see... that's why i love XXL.

This is the best thing I've seen in a while.
Warms my heart.
lol.

extra boost.

It's 3:36 AM right now and I'm in Temple's Tech Center bustin' ass trying to get this work done. I've been in here for a while now. I really don't even remember what time it was when I came. I was in the crib last night studying and packing for my trip back home to celebrate Howard's Homecoming so I'm running on about 3 1/2 hours of sleep. Staring at the computer screen for so long was starting to put me to sleep so I had to do something to wake my ass up. I purposely played these two songs on my iPod but the effect that they had on me was pretty unexpected.

Them s**ts woke me right up.
Try it yourself.
Its back to work for me, though.
Til next time...

tell em why you mad son...

I've been f**kin' with Keith Olbermann for a while now but this clip just shot my respect for dude through the roof. Mom Dukes sent this to me the other day and I watched it for the first time while I was at work today. It's not that long and it's a really good watch. I'd be highly surprised if anyone started watching it and then stopped. This s**t sucks you in.

K.O. goes off on McCain!
... and rightfully so.

What's up, biiiitttttcccccchhhh?

Broad Street bullies.

Congratulations to the Philadelphia Phillies for winning Game 5 against the Dodgers, putting them in the World Series for the first time since 1995. I was parked outside of a friends apartment builing when we started hearing loud, obnoxious screams. Temple is located right in the middle of North Philly so we dismissed it at first but then we started hearing this ongoing roar. So I circled around the block trying to find where it was coming from and in front of this off campus apartment buliding located right on "The Edge" of campus, is a sea of people in the street yelling at the top of their lungs and bouncing up and down. As soon as I turned the corner and saw them I parked in the most illegal spot ever and scrambled frantically to find my camera.

Once I found it, I walked over and started snapping pics and even recorded a couple videos. In a city that is known across the country for having "the worst fans", it was nice to see everyone so f**king happy. I'm not even a Phillies fan but I think that if you're having a terrible day, a certain number of happy people will make you happy either way. It was kinda cool.

Now I gotta deal with this s**t all day tomorrow. This should be interesting.

I've never heard people catch on to "made up on the spot" chants so quickly in my life.
Among the sea of white... and red, I found Jammy. Funny enough, she was doing the same thing I was doing.


Okay wait! So me and Jammy were talking about how wild what we were seeing was and then the unthinkable happened...
Someone in the crowd yells out "BROAD STREET!!! " and everyone starts running. Still screaming and chanting... only running. Like the opening scene from Lion King. I honestly did not see it coming.

hey you...

late again.

I'm constantly hearing about new artist way later than everyone else. I'm not ashamed. S**t happens. But late is so much better than never.


The rapper pictured above goes by the name of Blu and I know you've heard me say this about so many other new artists but... this dude is nice. I downloaded a bunch of his s**t the other day and he's definitely making his way to the "Most Played" playlist. I generally don't like Cali rappers but I really like son's style. I'm almost positive you'll like it, too.

Here's is the quick freestyle that he spit for XXL that sparked my interest. Its imperative that you listen to the whole thing. Its only about a minute long so don't trip.

While you're here, listen to this song from his latest mixtape "Johnson & Johnson". This song is by far my favorite on there. This weekend is Howard Homecoming and if I celebrate the way I did last year then I'll be starting a lot of "forest fires" in a couple of days. And I mean A LOT! I see myself playing this song while a couple of those trees are burning.

probably know him from the...

i can't believe it worked!

A couple month's ago, I went to this party in Vegas with my main squeeze M.I.A. to celebrate my boy's birthday. There was a rack a celebs there but I'm not one to name drop. Everyone was enjoying themselves and the atmosphere was really nice. Not to mention it was an open bar so everyone was getting s**ty. The night started to wind down around 4AM so me and M.I.A. decided to go grab a bite to eat with some friends before we went back to our hotel room for a night-cap. Me and shorty try to keep our relationship on the low for the most part but we were both extremely intoxicated so PDA was at an all time high. She repeatedly asked if I was ready to go while simultaneously "eye f**king" the s**t outta me. I got the hint so I payed for everyone's food and went outside to hail a cab.

When we got back to the hotel room it was no secret what was about to go down. I told her that I needed to hit the bathroom real quick and that I'd be right back. While inside the bathroom, I took a quick dump cuz I had been drinking dark liquor and for some reason it just runs right through me. After that, I grabbed a jimmy hat and made the power move of a lifetime. With a safety pin, I poked a tiny hole right in the middle of it. This is not at all in my character, but this entire story is a lie so why not.

When I came out of the bathroom she was climbing on top of the bed wearing nothing but socks. I hate having sex with socks on or with someone who has socks on (that's actually true, look it up) so I made her take them off. After that though, we made sweet sweet love for like 20 minutes. I usually go for hours but I'm no good when I'm drunk (also true). The last thought I had before we both passed out was that by some chance, poking that tiny hole worked.

Well ladies and gentleman, it did!
M.I.A's pregnant.

ain't no such thing as half-way crooks.

I can't even lie. I just stole this from TSS. It was too important not to share, though.
Ice your ankles, Kobe... smh.

no more drama.

I thought it was kinda f**ked up when I first saw it but then I took a minute to realize the benefits and why they did it. I'm a huge Little Brother fan and I have everything that they've ever done (that I could find) on my iPod. Back in '06 they came out with their Separate But Equal mixtape which was hosted by DJ Drama which means there was a lot of unnecessary s**t talking and whatnot at the beginning and end of every track. The mixtape was hot, though. This was when 9th Wonder's influence and involvement with the group began to fade until his eventual departure.

Big Pooh and Phonte decided to re-release Separate But Equal minus DJ Drama's crazy antics and added the more tracks. If you're not a fan of LB yet then go do your reseach and form your own opinion. The new mixtape is gonna be tough though. It'll be available on Nov. 4th and I advise you all to get it however you can and add it to the library.

okay...

He's gonna let this vocoder s**t ruin the new album, isn't he?........
Yeah, he is.

two things.

1: Doesn't Sarah Palin sound like the mom from Bobby's World?

2: This is three minutes well spent. Trust me...

i mean... yeah, but why?

LMAO!!! Just now, while I was thinking about how I was going to start this post, I imagined myself as a kid asking my mom for this Christmas. And that s**t made me laugh. This is a "rubberband gun" that I just saw on Kanye's blog. I put rubberband gun in quotes because I'm really not sure if you can even call it that. This thing is a little on the extreme side.



All I want to know is why it needs and infrared beam, night vision, and the ability to load twelve rounds of rubberbands. And did I mention that its made of stainless steal? Yeah, they took this one a little far. I feel like if you got pulled over and the cops found this under your seat you'd be in some serious s**t.

I went to private school my entire life, and when I was in elementary school, I would go to my friend's house at the end of the day and wait for my mom to pick me up. I remember the day I went over to his house and his dad had bought two rubberband guns for us to shoot the s**t out of each other with. We were geeked and played with them everyday for like a month straight, then we were kinda over it. You know how it is when you're little. Anyway, this is exactly what the rubberband guns he got us looked like. lol. Weak, right? Not even. We were the only youngins in his neighborhood riding our bikes strapped. Our imaginations were realistic to us. Life was so good back then...

jealousy.

I have the utmost respect for journalists. I think their talent/gift is the dopest s**t ever. "Why just think outside of the box when you can stand on top of that b**ch and share your thoughts with the world?" This runs through my mind every once in while when I'm writing a new blog post. I'm sure I'm not clever enough to make that up but I honestly don't remember what made me first think of it. Anyway, I love writers. Dated a couple. Not at the same time. I don't think. But communication and expression of thoughts is what I'm all about so I gravitate towards people who feel the same way. Does that make sense?

Music means the world to me so a journalist who writes about it is basically the s**t... assuming that they do it well. If you're a fellow music lover and you've never visited herfection.com then prepare yourself for a new addiction. Miss Lady's blog is amazing. I visit it multiple times throughout the day along with Roadto-Zion and DCtoBC.

Heather, the Queen Bee at herfection, recently did an interview with Kid Cudi. I'm a huge fan so you already know I'm boosted. The interview's short but its still vicious.

Read it HERE!

damnit, Juice.

Well n**ga... looks like 13 years later they finally got your dumb a**. I don't even know what to say about this one. Maybe you're just slow. You're looking at spending the rest of your life in prison, my man.... again. And how the hell did you manage to be found guilty on all twelve charges anyway. Your lawyer must hate your f'ing guts. You might win some, but you REALLY lost one this time. Dueces!

bugshots.

What you see above is a picture of a VW Bug. This is the car that Aden has and it is by far the least heterosexual vehicle I've ever driven. Not only is there a sunflower on the dashboard, but no matter how many wine black and milds you smoke in it, it smells like crayons. Its wierd. On Tuesday, me and some friends decided we wanted to go to a friends house and chill. Only problem is, there was 8 of us and the only vehicle we had was this yellow piece of shit sunshine. I was the first to propose that we just lap it up clown car style and Brittney was the only one who was down... kinda. After some convincing and everyone pretty much adopting the "f**k it" attitude, we just went for it and made moves.

So below I have mugshots of all 8 who were there to be apart of history.
I'm sure I'm sicing it but that s**t was hilarious to me.
