Ice Cube Reveals New Release Date For 'I Am The West', Says Video Is Coming For "Drink The Kool Aid" & Tells Miami That The "Lakers Are Still The Team To Beat"

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on July 18, 2010 at 3:47pm


Ice Cube took to his blog to update fans on the status of his new album, 'I Am The West' and take a shot at the Miami Heat.

Also a song that caused quite a stir when it first leaked because it sounds like Cube is going in a damn near everyone will be getting a video.

"Mark it on your calender. Sept. 28th is the new release date for I AM THE WEST. But I'm still droppin' song after song so look for "Drink the Kool-Aid" later this month. I want to give you the song wit visuals," Cube wrote.

And being a big sports fan and L.A. Laker supporter you knew Cube was going to throw a jab at the Miami Heat with their new additions of Chris Bosh and Lebron James to go along with Dwayne Wade.

After getting off stage at a Seattle, Washington concert that also featured Snoop Dogg, Cube had a chance to chop it up with The Doggfather.

"Kurupt is one of my favorite MC's. He's got complicated metaphors that's still gangsta.
15 minutes after he left the room in came Snoop. We talked about the Lakers kickin' the Celtics ass in the Finals. We laughed about LeBron joining The Heat. It won't work, Lakers are still the team to beat."

You can fool some of the people some of the time, but other times you might catch a bullet in the ass.

According to JustNews, three men impersonating FBI agents tried to break into a Cooper City, Florida home Monday (July 11). Two of the men wearing T-shirts with the letters 'FBI' on the back tried to gain entry through the front door using a crowbar while the other one acted as a look out,

After failing to get in through the front door the men moved to a window attempting to open it, but the homeowner wasn't having it.

He realized they were not a law enforcement and started letting off shots from a .40 caliber Smith and Wesson through the window.

Which scared the fake agents so the fled to a waiting SUV, lucky to escape

The family's home security cameras caught all of the action.

The homeowner's wife, who did not want to be identified, said her husband knew the men were not real FBI agents.

"My husband says that when he said, 'Who is it?' they said it was FBI -- 'Police, open up.' When he looked over through these little windows, he saw them. The way that they were positioned, he was just like, 'Uh-uh. These are not FBI,'" the homeowner's wife said.

He Did What? 64 Yr Old Man Arrested For Having Sex W/His Dog Named After Model Christie Brinkley

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on July 18, 2010 at 8:30am


Just when you think people can't get any more depraved they fool you and come up with some new madness.

64 year old beastiality freak, Armand Marquis Pacher, a former insurance executive was arrested Friday (July 16) for allegedly having sex with his Great Dane.

People probably should have been suspicious when he named the dog after 80's supermodel Christie Brinkley.

Christie Brinkley


But it wasn't until Pacher's veterinarian called Gainesville, Florida police to report him did the dirty truth come to light.

When a vet worker called Pacher to reschedule the 2 1/2 year old dog's eye surgery, the old pervert started talking about sex with the animal according to the Miami Herald.

"She doesn't seem to enjoy it as much when we have sex. Maybe it's because I haven't been as energetic lately and that's why she's not enjoying it," he allegedly told the worker.

When the dog was later brought into the clinic a veterinarian concluded that the spayed dog's body had evidence of forced sexual activity, the warrant said. The doctor said the evidence could not have come from another dog.

An arrest warrent was issued and Pacher was booked at Miami-Dade jail, charged with third-degree felony animal cruelty and facing up to five years in prison.

Pacher's lawyer. Jefferey Weiner said the vet worker misunderstood his client and it was only a joke.

"I'm quite familiar with the evidence that exists, and I'm really disappointed that Aventura police would make an arrest based on unsupported evidence and conclusions," Weiner said. "I expect my client will be full vindicated."

Civil Suit Against Plies Dismissed Over 2006 Concert Shooting That Left 5 Injured. But Case Isn't Over, Lawyer Says "He Is The Gangster & Goon, That's Why We're Suing Him" [Video]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on July 18, 2010 at 7:39am


Video After The Jump

For the 2nd time a civil lawsuit filed in Alachua County, Florida against rapper Plies has been dismissed. The lawsuits stem from a concert shooting that left five people injured, but the saga is far from over. The plaintiffs have 20 days to amend their complaint and their lawyer says they will.

During a 2006 concert in Gainesville, Florida that also featured Lil Boosie, members of Plies' entourage are accused of letting off shots into a crowd at Club 238.

Plies plead guilty to a charge of possession of a firearm and was sentenced to probation. His brother Ronell Lawrence “Big Gates” Lavatte served three years in prison because he was a convicted felon.

Billy Dee Williams, Michael Lamar Daymon, Edwin Devasco Faircloth, Steve Ruben Jean-Jacques and Dorian Shannel Johnson are the plaintiffs in the case. They allege that Plies' music, lyrics and image as a goon contributed to the violence. They cite his song "I Am The Club" as an example of the rappers' violent lyrics.

Plies did not fire the shots, but they want him held liable nonetheless.

Their lawyer Christopher Chestnut says, "He [Plies] characterizes it as he is the principle, as if he is the guy, he's the gangster, he is the thug, he is the goon. Yes, that's what he's selling, that's why we're suing him."

They are also suing Plies' record imprint, Big Gates Records.

The rappers' lawyer, Robert Rush thinks the suit is only about money.

"I'm sure if he had no money, and he had no notoriety, and he wasn't making records there would be no lawsuit," Rush says.

Civil Suit Against Plies Dismissed Over 2006 Concert Shooting That Left 5 Injured

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on July 18, 2010 at 6:10am


(AllHipHop News) Plies is off the hook in relation to a shooting that took place in Gainesville, Florida during a concert featuring the rapper and Lil’ Boosie that left five people injured.

Members of Plies’ entourage were accused of firing three rounds into a crowd of about 1,000 people at Club 238, during a dispute with performers over performance time in 2006.

Plies, born Algernod Lanier Washington, eventually pleaded no contest to possession of a weapon and was sentenced to probation.

His brother Ronell Lawrence “Big Gates” Lavatte was convicted of the crime and served three years in prison over the shooting.

On Friday (July 16th), Alachua County, Florida judge Robert Roundtree dismissed five men’s civil lawsuit against Plies and his brother’s recording imprint, Big Gates Records.

Both lawyers agree that Plies did not fire the shots, the victims of the 2006 shooting filed the lawsuit claiming Plies benefited commercially from the incident.

“He [Plies] characterizes it as if he is the principal [shooter],” said the plaintiffs’ attorney Christopher Chestnut. “As if he is the guy, he is the gangster, he’s the thug he’s the goon, yes that’s what he is selling and that is why we are suing him.”

It was the second civil suit stemming from the shooting and lawyers on both sides believe that the rapper will face more lawsuits because of the shooting.

The victims now have 20 days to amend their complaint.

Ciara, MTV Special: 'When I Was 17' [Video]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on July 17, 2010 at 8:37pm


Video After The Jump


MTV's 'When I Was 17' series has finally made it's way around to Ciara.

It won't come as any surprise that by the time she was 17, Ciara was very driven, but also very well liked at her high school.

As her friend Jasper describes her, "When Ciara was 17 she was just real ambitious, just happy all the time. Sing and dance [he repeated that several times] that's all she do."

She was a cheerleader, which isn't hard to imagine, but she had to make a decision to either get serious about her music career or continue as a cheerleader. So she decided to pursue music full time.

From there, you know what happened. She worked her butt off and became a big star with hits like Goodies and 1,2 step.

Ciara is about to release her fourth album titled 'Basic Instinct' in August.

Janet Jackson Becomes New Face Of Blackglama Fur Ad Campaign. Peta Feeling Salty, Calls The Singer "Desperate" W/Career "On The Downslide" [Video]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on July 17, 2010 at 4:30pm


Video After The Jump

Iconic singer/actress Janet Jackson has been named the new face of Blackglama's "What Becomes A Legend Most?" ad campaign.

Blackglama released a statement on their website announcing Janet's addition to the team.

Janet Jackson joins a roster of some of the world's most legendary entertainers who have starred in the popular Blackglama "What Becomes A Legend Most?" campaign. Since the campaign's inception four decades ago, Blackglama legends have included Sophia Loren, Lauren Bacall, Marlene Dietrich, Diana Ross, Audrey Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, Lena Horne and Liza Minnelli.

"For decades, Blackglama has represented the finest, most exclusive mink in the world," says Joe Morelli, CEO of Blackglama. "Throughout it's illustrious history, Blackglama has remained a dynamic and powerful player in the fashion industry. Much like Blackglama, Janet Jackson has occupied a similar position in her respective industry. Janet is an icon in the world of music and entertainment, a true legend. She represents everything that this storied campaign embodies. Janet is to entertainment what Blackglama is to luxury."

Leave to the folks over at PETA (People For The Ethical Treatment Of Animals) to try to throw dirt on Janet's new gig.

PETA Spokeswoman Amanda Schinke says, "It's amazing what celebrities will do when their careers are on a downslide, but we didn't think that Janet was this desperate."

"Surely she knows enough about suffering and unjustified death to recognize that both occur in the production of a fur coat. We are asking her to think again and to donate these stolen skins to be used as bedding for animals orphaned by other human-caused disasters, such as loss of habitat."

Damn PETA, let the woman handle her business.

Producer Bangledesh Talks About How He Got The "A Millie" Beat Into Lil Wayne's Hands & His Favorite Remix Of The Song [Video]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on July 17, 2010 at 2:00pm


Video After The Jump

Bangledesh is not on the best of terms right now with Young Money as he is suing Lil Wayne for $500,000 for failure to pay him for production of "A Millie".

He recently told Vibe, "I don’t really give a f*ck about [Wayne]. I can't give a f*ck about somebody that don’t give a f*ck about my situation, I have kids. In the hood, people get killed for ten dollars. I couldn’t imagine owing someone hundreds of thousands of dollars and just walking around in front of them. I'm so confident in myself, that I don’t need Lil Wayne. There's gonna be so many opportunities. I can create a Lil Wayne."

There is no denying though, that the beat is incredible and was one of the hottest songs off of Wayne's album 'The Carter III".

Bangledesh talks to VladTV about how he got the beat into Weezy's hands.

"Basically the connection was my friend that I went to high school with, Shanell. She's actually in Young Money now. She just knew Wayne and "A Millie" was a beat that I always wanted to play for Wayne. I had a lot of opportunities to sell it, but I always hold my beats until I want the person to hear it. Until they hear it, I can't do nothing else with it. So I had an opportunity to play it for him and he went in on it immediately, freestyle. He'll freestyle and just perfect it, listening back to it, like not writing."

Bang said in his opinion Cory Gunz spit the dopest verse out of any of the countless remixes to the song.

Snoop Dogg Interview With Tim Westwood: Speaks On Being Back In The UK After Getting Banned, Touring W/Diddy Back In The Day & Trying To Help End UK Gang Violence [Video]

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on July 17, 2010 at 1:00pm


Video After The Jump

BBC Radio One's Tim Westwood caught up with the one and only Snoop Dogg after a recent show in London. The two got a chance to catch up on old times.

It had been a minute since the Doggfather had a chance to touch down in the UK after being banned due to several run-ins with the law.

Tim asked him how it felt when he first heard he had been banned from the country.

"That broke my heart not to be able to come out her and see the people who mean so much to me," Snoop said. "It was personal, I felt like it was a slap in the face from the people who loved me. But through the grace of God and time and spirit I'm back where I need to in the UK at home."

Snoop spoke on being able to tour Britain with Diddy back in the day, putting the East Coast vs West Coast rivalry to bed. He said it's possible he and Puff might do it again in the future.

Snoop would also like to help end gang violence in the UK.

"I can definitely do something positive with the gangs in the UK. I would like to put together a concert to try to help end some of this violence and some of this misunderstanding out here because I come from that life you know. So in the near future I'll be getting my mind, my plan and my team together to come over here and do some things that would be effective with ending some of this nonsense and this violence that does not need to be happening."

Snoop is definitely on a real positive vibe these days and it's good to see that.
