Monica, Rocko and Lil Rock were spotted taking in the Atlanta Hawks vs. Lakers game yesterday. Check out Lil Rock throwing the “peace up, A-town down sign”…how cute is that? Rocko even managed to crack a smile or two in quite a few photos.
Other celebs spotted include Polow Da Don, Takeo Spikes, Chris Webber and more. Peep more photos from the game below: Continue Reading…
“Lil Rocko always puts up the peace sign. We believe in peace and love. LoL”
Monica sent over some pics of the kids for you guys. Lil Rocko is just like his daddy and Romelo is getting soooo big!? Check out the pics below:
“My youngest is a real sweetheart. Soooo loving.”
Superstar Status!
I caught up with Rocko recently and got a chance to grill him on his favorite O.S.A.M. (Old School Atlanta Memory). Regardless what Killer Mike says about Freaknik, it appears that most true ATLiens can fondly reminisce and reflect about those good ole days riding down Peachtree Street flossin and glossin’.
Rocko is no exception, his favorite O.S.A.M. took us back to our favorite A-Town Black college reunion and he also suggests to Shirley Franklin (or whoever our next mayor will be) to consider bringing it back.

When I joked about what candidate he’s supporting, Rocko promptly nominated himself for mayor of Atlanta.
Watch out y’all…there may be a mayoral upset once he starts his campaign as a write in!
Happy Friday!!

Rick Ross‘ listening session for “Deeper Than Rap” was held last night at Artistry and the drinks and music flowed freely. I don’t really follow that whole Rick Ross/50 Cent thing so I decided to chill on the interview tip and let the other sites take care of that. I did however catch up with Killer Mike and Rocko, who both kept me more than entertained throughout the evening! We ended up turning the session into an ATL lovefest 😆
Check out my video footage from the event below:

Monica threw her fianc?, Rocko, a huge birthday party at Straits Restaurant in Atlanta. The spot, owned by Mo’s cousin Chistopher Ludacris Bridges was packed wall to wall with all of the couple’s celebrity friends.
Derek Blanks, Shawty Lo and his wife, D.Woods, Kandi Buress (xscape), Jerry Clark (island def jam), Sheree Whitfield, Paster Troy, Young Ralph, Yung Joc, Jazze Pha….hell, even Dekalb County CEO Vernon Jones popped in for a piece of cake! I went, thinking that the birthday bash was going to be Monica & Rocko’s wedding reception. I’m sure you noticed that I still referred to Rocko as Monica’s fiance…well, that’s because the two haven’t eloped and I was angry for nothing. Monica cleared up the ‘secret wedding’ rumor and stated that B. Cox referring to her as Rocko’s wife is not unusual. They don’t think of her as his ‘baby momma’ and it’s a respect thing. Plus, she added that Bryan has been privy to intimate details of their plans for the big day.
The two lovebirds sat like the king and queen of the ‘A’ at the head of a table full of their friends and family but one self proclaimed king must have been home alone a bit too long cause he made a surprise visit to escort his queen home. Continue Reading…
