Word on the street is that not only has Wayne knocked up honorary ATLien New New Lauren London but now according to FreddyO he’s knocked up Nivea! *sigh*
?Last week my boy called to tell me that the one and only Nivea was about to have a baby. Yes, she?s pregnant. I would like to be the first to send my congrats to her and her baby daddy soon to be husband, Wayne. The two are said to be marrying with in the next few months. Hmmmm, I wonder about that. Wayne will also be having a child with the one and only Lauren London. WOW?. I wonder what they said when they both found out about each other??
Lil Wayne currently has two children: Reginae Carter, 9, with ex-wife Antonia ‘Toya’ Johnson and Dwayne Michael Carter III who was born last October to “Sara B”. Obviously Lil Wayne lied. He’s not always strapped….and that dayum condom campaign is a bust…get it? A BUST!? Haha! :-/
First, the Mom who shoplifted in Walmart while her 2 toddlers were waiting in the car, and now dayum drug kingpins who hid? 60lbs of cocaine in kitchen cabinets and 45 lbs in the trunk of a car?! Cobb County has been on FIRE this week in their arrests…almost makes me feel safer in Downtown Atlanta. Almost.
Ricardo Santiago (above), 45, of Marietta, was found with nearly 60 pounds of cocaine hidden in kitchen cabinets at a home on Sanibel Lane in Smyrna. Edgar Dominguez (below), 31, of Roswell, had roughly 45 pounds of cocaine in the trunk of his white Honda Accord. Acccording to his warrant, Dominguez was seen leaving the home on Sanibel Lane before his arrest.
Both men were arrested June 3 and charged with drug trafficking, according to police arrest reports. They remain in Cobb County Jail. (source)
I read a while back that Atlanta suburbs are now a haven for drug cartels, so this huge bust in Marietta just about proves it.? Downtown’s not looking so bad now huh…
The Dungeon Family reunited last week at Piedmont Park for a special edition magazine photo shoot *cough* VIBE.? Maurice Garland captured the moment on film as they all convened on Stankonia Studio afterwards to chill out:
Goodie Mob’s T-Mo & Big Gipp
Big Boi, Cee-Lo & Khujo (Luv the Campbellton representation!)
Andre 3000 aka SPEED DEMON is all smiles…
The gangs all here! Heeeey Sleepy!
After a marriage, 2 kids, 3 stepkids and major flop….Usher says he wants his swagger back. Pharell Williams recently discussed Usher’s upcoming “Monster” project and has even dropped a hint that the old Usher is no more.? Usher’s previous album, “Here I Stand” technically ushered in a more mature, grown up, and ‘man handling his business as a husband and father” kinda vibe. But this time around, Williams says Usher is going for ‘mean and edgy’ and may be almost unrecognizable:
“It’s really great, it’s super edgy. He’s taken a lot of time to really sit and study and we really built something. It’s just, it’s mean.” ~ Pharell
