The 2015 Global Spin Awards were held on Tuesday, November 17th. DJ Whoo Kid walked away with three awards, including the trophy for Online/Satellite Radio DJ of the Year.
Everyone should stop by "N-Word Bond's" TWITTER page or INSTAGRAM and shout him out for this well deserved honor.
N.W.A. co-founder Eazy E died in 1995, just one month after being diagnosed with AIDS. He was just 30-years old.
Because the disease was not discovered while Eazy, real name Eric Wright, was in the HIV positive stage it's impossible to know how long the rapper would have lived had he received earlier treatments.
Magic Johnson tested positive for HIV in 1991 and is still living a productive life.
Wright's son, Lil Eazy, spoke with TMZ about Charlie Sheen's condition. He believes the actor is a lucky man.
With today's life saving treatments that are available, Sheen will be able to watch his five children grow up. For that, Lil E, whose dad died when he was 10, thinks the "Wall Street" star should be thankful.
Billboard recently rolled out their list of the "Top 10 Greatest Rappers of All Time." An opinion-based list such as this will always be questioned by some, but the omission of Tupac Shakur, generally considered top 3 DOA, is surprising and didn't sit well with his former label mate, Snoop Dogg.
On the other hand,Ghostface Killah, is definitely the best to ever do it, although his lyrical ability is sometimes slept on. He was thankful for being included and gave the website a shout out.
Do you agree with Billboard's list? If not, let us know who you would delete and add in their place. Or simply give us your own top 10 in the comment section below.

Since our first interview with Slim Jesus back in September, the Ohio rapper has blown up in the hip-hop world, and he spoke to us about adjusting to his recent fame.
One of the perks to stem from his recent buzz has been the rare feat of headlining shows. After admitting that he's "skipped a lot of steps" in becoming famous, Slim revealed that he had never performed live before his first paid show. While most people in his shoes would be nervous about the large crowds, the "Drill Time" rapper stated that he has become "natural" on stage.
During the interview Slim Jesus also addressed the reaction he got after revealing to VladTV that he doesn't live the street life that he raps about. He explained that while some people praised him for his honesty, he added that he understands why some rappers were critical of his comment.
To hear more from Slim Jesus, including how he's reacted to the attention of women during his shows, hit the clip below.
A prominent Los Angeles lawyer has been contacted by 10 women who plan to sue Charlie Sheen. The attorney has met with 6 of the women and has appointments with the other 4.
All claim that Sheen never told them he was HIV positive before having both protected and unprotected sex with them. Some as recently as last month.
TMZ reports they are going to sue the actor for intentional infliction of emotional distress, fraud and sexual battery.
As we previously reported, during an interview on Tuesday, November 17, Sheen told Matt Lauer of NBC Today that he had been up front with all of his sexual partners about his condition.
“Yes, I have,” Sheen replied, adding, “No exceptions.”
Sheen did admit that he had unprotected sex with 2 women after his diagnosis.
"The 2 people that I did that with were under the care of my doctor and they were completely warned ahead of time," Sheen said.
He says that he has already paid out "millions" in extortion money to keep his condition a secret and didn't plan on shelling out any more after today.
Bree Olsen
Former girlfriend Bree Olsen appeared on The Howard Stern Show this morning, claiming that Sheen never once told her he was HIV positive.
“He never said anything to me,” the former porn star told Stern. “I was his girlfriend. I lived with him. We were together. We had sex almost every day for a year—with lambskin condoms.”
Lambskin condoms do not protect against HIV transmission.
At this point Olsen is not sure if she is going to take Sheen to court.
Natalie Kenlywas one of Sheen's former "goddesses," along with Olsen. She toldTMZ that she was never informed of his condition either.
Both Olsen and Kenly are currently HIV negative. Kenly doesn't plan to sue.
Brooke Mueller, who has 6-year old twin sons with Sheen, issued a statement to Us Weekly via her rep, Steve Honig.
"To put their minds at ease, Brooke can confirm that she and the boys are not HIV-positive."
The two were married from 2008-2011.
Sheen was diagnosed four years ago. In the last two years he's allegedly had sex with at least 200 partners says an associate, so more lawsuits may be on the way.

Travis Scott was the musical guest on Late Night with Seth Myers on Monday, November 16th. He performed "Antidote" and "Pray 4 Love" off of his "Rodeo" album. Grab it now from iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/ca/album/rodeo-deluxe/id1031530485.
After calling David Banner comments about Black rappers mumbling these days "complete bulls*t," television personality Charlamagne tha God went on to defend the artists who don't. "I hate when people say things like that because it lets me know you're not looking for the whole totality of hip-hop - you're listening to the radio," Charlamagne expressed. He then backed his point by naming Drake, J. Cole, Big Sean & Wale, which turned into yet another debate about the greatest rap acts of today.
J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar and Drake are the top rappers right now in Charlamagne's eyes, but DJ Vlad believes Future has had a bigger impact in recent months. Charlamagne quickly interjected and said "Yeah, October 2015 he may be hotter, but he's not...Nah. Cole, Kendrick and Drake are those guys." He does admit later, however, that Future "is getting into legendary status" little by little.
Charlie Sheen visited the NBC Today Show on Tuesday, November 17, for a candid conversation about his HIV positive diagnosis.
"I have to put a stop to this onslaught, this barrage of attacks and of sub-truths and very harmful and mercurial stories that are about me, that threaten the health of so many others that couldn't be further from the truth," he told Matt Lauer.
The 50-year old actor said people he trusted with information about his diagnosis betrayed him. He estimates that he's paid out "upwards of $10 million" in hush money.
"What people forget is that it's money taken from my children," he contunued. "I trusted them and they were deep in my inner circle, and I thought they could be helpful. My trust turned to their treason."
Sheen, real name Carlos Irwin Estévez, hoped that by making what had been a secret until today public, it would stop people from trying to extort him for money.
"That's my goal. That's not my only goal. I think I release myself from this prison today," he said.
The former"Two and a Half Men"star has known he was infected for four years. During that time he's continued to have sex, sometimes unprotected. None of his partners have tested positive for the disease.
TMZ reports that in California it's criminal for someone to have unprotected sex when that person knows he or she is infected with HIV. The crime is punishable by up to six months in prison.
If a person has sex with the intention of transmitting the disease they could be sentenced to eight years in prison.
Sheen says that he's been up front with his sex partners regarding his diagnosis.
(Reuters) Islamic State warned in a new video on Monday that countries taking part in air strikes against Syria would suffer the same fate as France, and threatened to attack in Washington.
The video, which appeared on a website used by Islamic State to post its messages, begins with news footage of the aftermath of Friday's Paris shootings in which at least 129 people were killed.
The message to countries involved in what it called the "crusader campaign" was delivered by a man dressed in fatigues and a turban, and identified in subtitles as Al Ghareeb the Algerian.

"We say to the states that take part in the crusader campaign that, by God, you will have a day, God willing, like France's and by God, as we struck France in the center of its abode in Paris, then we swear that we will strike America at its center in Washington," the man said.
It was not immediately possible to verify the authenticity of the video, which purports to be the work of Islamic State fighters in the Iraqi province of Salahuddine, north of Baghdad.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security would not comment on the video but said it has not received information indicating a potential attack.
"While we take all threats seriously, we do not have specific credible information of an attack on the U.S. homeland," a DHS official said on condition of anonymity.
The French government has called the Paris attacks an act of war and said it would not end its air strikes against Islamic State in Syria and Iraq.
French fighter jets launched their biggest raids in Syria to date on Sunday, targeting the Islamic State's stronghold in the city of Raqqa, in coordination with U.S. forces.
Police raided homes of suspected Islamist militants across France overnight following the Paris attacks.
"Al Ghareeb the Algerian" also warned Europe in the video that more attacks were coming.

"I say to the European countries that we are coming, coming with booby traps and explosives, coming with explosive belts and (gun) silencers and you will be unable to stop us because today we are much stronger than before," he said.
Apparently referring to international talks to end the Syrian war, another man identified in the video as Al Karrar the Iraqi tells French President Francois Hollande "we have decided to negotiate with you in the trenches and not in the hotels."

The media has tried hard to drum up a beef between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Ronda Rousey over the last year. Money May never really bought into it and following Ronda's loss to Holly Holm at UFC 193, the retired boxing champion refused to pour salt in her wounds.
"Oh, I don't know. I don't speak on nobody's situation," Mayweather told MLive'sDavid Mayo, when asked about the fight. "Just in boxing period, contact sports period, you win some, you lose some. I don't know about this fight, I just know that you win some and you lose some. It basically comes with the territory."
Rousey suffered her first loss in 13 professional fights when Holm knocked her out with a head kick in the second round of their match in Australia, over the weekend.
The judoka promised her fans via Instagram that she will be back.

Police Officer Moira Smith leads injured Edward Nicholls, a broker at Aon Corporation, to safety from the burning World Trade Center
NYPD officer Moira Smith died on September 11, 2001, while helping to save lives when terrorists flew planes into the World Trade Center.
She was 38-years old at the time.
She was posthumously awardedGlamour Magazine's Woman of the Yearaward later that year.
However, the award was returned to the publication by Moira's husband when he learned that Caitlyn Jenner received the same honor this year.
Read what James Smith had to say via his Facebook page below.
On October 29th, 2001 I was honored to accept the Glamour Magazine "Woman of the Year Award" posthumously given to my wife, Police Officer Moira Smith. Moira was killed on September 11th, 2001 while rescuing thousands from the World Trade Center. EMT Yamel Merino was also posthumously honored that evening for her heroism.
I was shocked and saddened to learn that Glamour has just named Bruce Jenner "Woman of the Year". I find it insulting to Moira Smith's memory, and the memory of other heroic women who have earned this award. Was there no woman in America, or the rest of the world, more deserving than this man? At a time when we have women in the armed forces fighting and dying for our country, heroic doctors fighting deadly diseases, women police officers and firefighters putting their lives on the line for total strangers, brave women overcoming life threatening diseases…the list of possibilities goes on…is this the best you could do?
I can only guess that this was a publicity stunt meant to resuscitate a dying medium.
After discussing this slap in the face to the memory of our Hero with my family, I have decided to return Moira's award to Glamour Magazine.
