As I was perusing the tweets last night, I noticed my blogger friend Freshalina’s throwback Outkast post.
In a vintage MTV video filmed back in 2001, Big Boi and Andre 3000 of Outkast argue over a freaky nighttime bat/bird sighting.
Big Boi and Dre can’t seem to agree on if the flying creatures spotted are birds or bats and the disagreement makes for some hilarious Outkast flashback footage…

Word on the curb is that K. Whasserface is planning on a ‘butt reduction’ in the near future.
Shockingly, the reality show starlit seems to have had an epiphany about her bodacious backside and after years of ‘pumping it up’ with fix-a-flat and fat injections, she’s decided that her baggage is to much of a burden to bear.

Clifford ‘T.I.’ Harris and up & coming rapper Kap-G appeared on CNN last night to discuss issues of racial profiling and their ‘angry rap lyrics’ with host Don Lemon.
It was just about a week ago that Tip and David Banner jumped on the remix of Kap-G’s ‘La Policia’ and in light of all the recent news of police brutality nationwide, it seems their message of rage is being heard loud and clear.
[FLASHBACK: T.I. & David Banner Add Powerful Message to Kap-G’s ‘La Policia (AUDIO)]
When asked about the angry message in the song, T.I. responds:
I think there is resentment… an undeniable fear that (I believe) law enforcement has for young minorities and it is reflected in their actions.
And of course that leads to angry lyrics because our music, historically has been a reflection of our circumstances.

In case you missed it, watch video of T.I. and Kap-G’s CNN appearance below… Continue Reading…
