Christ Bearer starts out his VladTV interview by speaking about his Wu-Tang affiliation and he explains that the West Coast Killa Beez were the first West Coast Wu-Tang affiliate to be signed by RZA.
It wasn't long after his intro that the West Coast emcee was asked about a headline-grabbing incident that claimed he cut his penis off in an alleged suicide attempt. Christ Bearer explained that he doesn't consider the incident a suicide attempt, but he admitted to getting high on various drugs, including PCP.
When asked about his drug use, the Northstar emcee explained that PCP use runs in his family and he admitted to using the drug since he was a teenager. The Wu-Tang affiliated rapper then explained that he started regularly using the powerful drug when he was in his 20s.
Speaking more about the highly publicized incident, Christ Bearer explained that he was aggravated that he couldn't use a phone to speak to his estranged family, which set him off. He then said that he got the idea to give himself a vasectomy while he was high, and that's when things went all the way left.
After deeply cutting his penis, Christ Bearer said that he had a "f*ck the world" moment and he decided to jump off of a two-story balcony. The rapper then revealed that he didn't fully realize his mistake until months later, as he claims that he was high following the life changing incident. With that said, Christ Bearer said that he's proud of what he did, because he feels that no other man has done what he did.

MALONE, N.Y. (AP) — One of two convicted killers who staged a brazen escape from an upstate maximum-security prison and had been hunted for three weeks was shot and killed Friday, but the other is still on the run.
An official with knowledge of the manhunt said Richard Matt was killed by police and David Sweat is still on the run. The official wasn't authorized to talk about the development publicly and spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity.
Matt and Sweat used power tools to saw through a steel cell wall and several steel steam pipes, bashed a hole through a 2-foot-thick brick wall, squirmed through pipes and escaped early June 6 from Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, near the Canadian border.
Sweat was serving a sentence of life without parole in the killing of a sheriff's deputy in Broome County in 2002. Matt was serving 25 years to life for the killing and dismembering of his former boss.
A civilian worker at the prison has been charged with helping the killers flee by giving them hacksaw blades, chisels and other tools.
Joyce Mitchell
Prosecutors said Joyce Mitchell, a prison tailoring shop instructor who got close to the men while working with them, had agreed to be their getaway driver but backed out because she felt guilty for participating. Mitchell pleaded not guilty June 15 to charges including felony promoting prison contraband.
Authorities said the men had filled their beds in their adjacent cells with clothes to make it appear they were sleeping when guards made overnight rounds. On a cut steam pipe, the prisoners left a taunting note containing a crude caricature of an Asian face and the words "Have a nice day."
Clinton County District Attorney Andrew Wylie said they apparently used tools stored by prison contractors, taking care to return them to their toolboxes after each night's work.
Authorities also said Mitchell had discussed killing her husband, Lyle Mitchell, as part of the plot.
"Joyce Mitchell tells us that was discussed between her and Matt and that upon their escape they were going to return back to Joyce Mitchell's home at which time Matt and Sweat were going to kill her husband," Wylie said.
Lyle Mitchell's lawyer, Peter Dumas, said June 18 that his client was shocked by word of the plot and that Joyce Mitchell had told her husband she couldn't go through with it and the inmates threatened to harm him.
"Toward the end, Joyce had told Lyle — and we have no reason to doubt it — that she told Sweat and Matt that she wasn't going to go through with it," he said. "At that point, they threatened her by threatening Lyle, saying they were going to have someone on the outside do something to him or someone on the inside when he was back at work do something to him, so I think it was a point of control."
Lyle Mitchell was cooperating with authorities and wasn't facing charges.
On June 24, authorities charged Clinton correction officer Gene Palmer with promoting prison contraband, tampering with physical evidence and official misconduct. Officials said he gave the two prisoners the frozen hamburger meat Joyce Mitchell had used to hide the tools she smuggled to Sweat and Matt. Palmer's attorney said he had no knowledge that the meat contained hacksaw blades, a bit and a screwdriver.

Dannemora, built in 1845, occupies just over 1 square mile within the northern reaches of the Adirondack Forest Preserve and is surrounded by forest and farmland. The stark white perimeter wall of the prison, topped with guard towers, borders a main street in the village's business district.
The escape was the first in history from Clinton Correctional's maximum-security portion. In July 2003, two convicted murderers used tools from a carpentry shop at Elmira Correctional Facility to dig a hole in the roof of their cell and a rope of bedsheets to go over the wall. They were captured within three days, and a subsequent state investigation cited lax inmate supervision, poor tool control and incomplete cell searches.

WhenMichael Jacksonpassed away 6 years ago today his debts were around$500 million. Since that timeTMZ reports that theKing of Pop'sestate has grossed nearly$2 billion.
The revenue streams come from MJ's ONE show by Cirque du Soleil, 50 million records sold, the movie This Is It and other business ventures.
The $2 billion gets whittled down to $450 million after taxes and expenses. That would reduce his debts almost nothing and in the years to come the estate will see healthy profits.
Jackson made sure his three children were well taken care of financially. They each receive a significant amount of money as they get older. If the estate was liquidated today, Paris, Blanket and Prince would each get $100 million.

"Life's too short... So just Rage!"
Song Description
Virginia is starting to make its way back into mainstream attention as far as emerging talent is concered. Being that the demographic itself has no solid "sound" in comparison to markets like Atlanta, NYC, or even Cali, it's something sort of a melting pot of unique artistry--there are emcees that appeal to those who enjoy evergrowing "trap music", tons of alternative Hip-Hop artists, & even rappers that bring you back to the early 2000's.
Anything produced by rising PTown VA rapper, Zack Morris, is intended to make you have a good time. His latest video, Turn The Lights Off (TTLO) is the epitome of the evergrowing "turn up music" which artists & fans have now made the soundtrack of the summer. The Visually Inklined directed visual speaks volumes far past the capacity of any written description. Take a peep. TTLO. Turn up!
