Erykah Badu was the special guest DeeJay last Friday (June 17, 2011) at a special edition of Euphoria at Harlem Nights nightclub in Atlanta.
The queen of neo-soul’s alter ego “DJ Lo Down Loretta Brown” rocked the mic all night long and entertained the crowd by mixing and scratching Erykah’s hits with classic hip-hop beats and more.
Who knew Badu was such a monster on the 1’s and 2’s?
Peep the video and witness DJ Lo Down Loretta Brown’s skills on the wheels of steel… Continue Reading…
Lawd knows I loves me some Peter Thomas (who I saw recently during ATL Live on the Park), so imagine my surprise yesterday when my good twitter friend Bravolebrity1 clued me in on Peter’s recent legal issues.
Apparently Peter was in an Atlanta court earlier this week addressing charges that he assaulted a female employee of his now defunct Uptown Nightclub.
A quick search revealed two mugshots for the chocolate Casanova aka Real Atlanta Housewife Cynthia Bailey’s Hubby.??
The first was from an April 2008 arrest in which Peter was arrested for Simple Battery. He was released the same day after posting $1,000 bond and charges were later dropped in that case.
The second mugshot was from the incident on December 3, 2009 when he was arrested in Atlanta for Simple Battery and Battery with visible harm. Peter was released the same day of the arrest after posting $2,000 bond and appeared in court this week (Monday, June 20, 2011) to face his accuser and former employee.
Peter was originally facing up to a year in prison if convicted but he has confirmed that he was found NOT GUILTY of all charges.
Peter’s explanation below: Continue Reading…
Add another one for Gucci Mane.? It’s been a while since we seen Gucci around town and I just thought I’d give you an updated peek at his pretty tatted up face.
Gucci was initially locked up on April 20th for probation violation charges after an incident where he “allegedly” kicked a chick out of a moving vehicle but you already know that wasn’t the first time…
[READ: Mugshot Gallery: The Many Faces of Radric Davis…]
In case you didn’t know, Gucci Mane is still custody and this recent mugshot, taken June 16, 2011, stems from a long list of charges: interfering with government property, failure to obey traffic signal, driving on the wrong side of the road, and simple assault.
This calls for a musical interlude…
QUESTION: Do you think this will increase Gucci’s street cred & marketability… or is he just another dumb rapper locked up?
Da Brat aka Shawntae Harris rocked a new Mohawk doo, as she played host to an all girl mixtape party recently.
Having hit the ground running after being released from jail, DaBrat is still riding high off of the great response she received from her verse on the SoSo Def remix to Chris Brown’s “Look at Me Now”.

All Brat’slezzzbun fans showed up to give love…
DaBrat once revealed that she was “the most wanted female in prison” (and THIS MUGSHOT proved Brat was ‘da man’ on cell block 8) so it should be no surprise that all the ladies love her in the streets.
Brat also brought along her sister Lisa Raye, who was decked out in her signature all white attire… Continue Reading…
A viral video is circulating that has created a huge debate about smart people…? especially the fact that most of y’all ‘brainiacs’ are so smart that you don’t know when you’re being stupid.
So here’s the scenario…? a passenger on public transportation complains about a woman who’s talking loudly and using profane language on the train.?? She’s no “Soulja Girl”… but she’s definitely 
a distraction to passengers.
Transit officials arrive on the scene to calm the situation and when the conductor asks her to quiet down, the passenger gets angry and begins to repeatedly state how “educated” she is and how the conductor doesn’t know “what schools I went to.”
“Excuse me, do you know how educated I am? I was in a private conversation with my friend…
“I’m not a crazy person… I’m a very educated person…”
Hhmph… as if dumb people don’t ride the bus…. 😕
Check out the video below: Continue Reading…
Newsfash! My bodacious boo Rick Ross just got a new tattoo…
In what many consider to be either asinine or marketing genius,? RickyRozay recently tatted a “Cazal” logo on his face right below his left eye. The new tatt adds to the numerious collection of tattoos Ross has already. He even has two other’s on his face, the Maybach Music logo (“MMG”) and “The Bawse”.
Ross is reportedly a huge fan of the designer and owns a huge collection of frames by Cazal, whose collection was popular in the 80’s and 90’s.? The vintage look has been resurrected via hip-hop heads and fashionistas alike, with Jay-Z, Beyonce, Diddy and even Brad Pitt rocking the brand.
I don’t know what Rick was thinking when he made this decision, but hopefully he can get some free eyewear outta the deal… *shrug*
At any rate… check out photos of other celebs rocking vintage Cazals + in case you missed it, watch the video for Meek Mill’s “Tupac Back” ft. Rick Ross… Continue Reading…
