The controversy surrounding Kreayshawn and the White Girl Mob using the word "n*gger" in their rhymes is not dying down. Despite Mistah Fab recently co-signing the trio and their use of the word, it's not something most black people are going to condone.
Singer Lloyd recently talked to VladTV about the subject and said he thinks the young Oakland rapper and her crew should should really think about what they are saying..
Have you ever heard of Kreayshawn the white female rapper?
No
The reason why I bring her up is because the biggest thing about her is she uses the n-word freely in her raps.
Oh nah I aint heard of that b*tch
What do you think about a white rapper using the word?
Come on man, what do you think? I am black... I know a lot of people think I'm something else. Just because we use it doesn't give other people permission to use it. Although I kind of understand the psychology of growing up listening to hip hop -- the word being used so freely. Sometimes it's almost unavoidable when you're reciting lyrics. I just think that for her benefit she needs to understand the severity of what she does. I think there's no black person in the world that's going to be accepting of that.

The seemingly never ending saga of DMX and drugs continues.
After serving seven months for a previous probation violation for failing several drug tests, the rapper was supposed to be released from jail tomorrow. But because he's broken seven prison rules since January, including possessing drugs, his stay has been extended.
Dark Man has talked in recent weeks about his plans for a reality show and new album when he's released. Those plans will be on hold for at least a week or much longer according to TMZ.

Plies drops a surprise video for this song that appears on his 2010 mixtape 'You Need People Like Me.'
Mathew Knowles is vehemently denying accusations that he stole money from his daughter Beyonce while acting as her manager. He has filed legal papers trying to clear his name.
Beyonce fired her dad back in March, but said at the time it was mutual and amicable.
“I’ve only parted ways with my father on a business level,” Beyonce said in a statement at the time. “He is my father for life and I love my dad dearly. I am grateful for everything he has taught me.”
However, TMZ is reporting there is much more to the story.
Mathew blames Live Nation Entertainment for sabotaging his business relationship with his daughter. He claims that they told Beyonce he was stealing from her because they wanted desperately to "sink their fangs" into Beyonce's 2011 world tour according to documents obtained by TMZ.
Beyonce eventually had her law firm conduct an audit and discovered her father had stolen from her. He was then fired.
Mathew maintains his innocence and wants the judge to give him the right to take depositions of various people at Live Nation, to determine just how they concluded he was a thief.

In early June New Orleans rapper Kidd Kidd was shot six times in an apparent robbery attempt. Luckily he survived and is well on his way to recovery.
"wuzzam man thank yall for keepin me in yall prayers n*gga hit me six times but dey aint stoppin nutin b*tch ass n*gga get ur refund I aint dead," Kidd Kidd tweeted a couple of days later.
The situation is eerily similar to 50 Cent's life story. The G-Unit boss talked to MTV about that while in Atlanta on the set of Tony Yayo's "Haters" video. He said that instead of moving away from Kidd Kidd, the situation made him identify with what he was going through even more. He also revealed that the rapper is on the title track of his new album.
"He's actually on my album, the title track," 50 told MTV. "He got shot after we recorded that first song. Them boys down in New Orleans, they're active. It's a lot goin' on down there, and because I experienced it, I didn't move away from it. I actually ID'd with the situation a little more. He got hit six times, he got a bag on now," 50 said as Kidd Kidd lifted his shirt to reveal a colostomy bag. "Columbia, when that situation took place with me, they walked away from me just because they're not familiar with the actual environment and what happens at different points. It don't make me no difference: I understand it."
Kidd Kidd said he is happy to be down with somebody like 50.
"It's a blessing getting down with Fif. It's real, it's all love," he said. "There ain't too many real people in the industry, period. I've been around a lot, and right now it's time. I never felt like this before."

Weed smoking and rapping seem to go hand in hand, or at least it seams that way. For every non-smoker like a 50 Cent or Kendrick Lamar, there are probably at least 10-15 others that love the sticky icky.
Notorious B.I.G. was a big fan of the herb and smoked a lot of it according to Dame Dash, who recalled the making of the Jay-Z and Biggie collaboration "Brooklyn's Finest" for VH1.
"I remember Biggie getting so much weed," Dame recalled. "First he asked Lil Cease to go get a box of cigars. And I was like 'why do they need all them cigars? What the f*ck is going on?' And then somebody came with a lot of jars of weed and they rolled [it up]. I couldn't believe the amount of blunts they had -- I've never seen nothing like that in my life!" Dame said. "I was like 'there is no way you're going to smoke all that. It just can't happen.' I'm not exaggerating he had like 60 joints and he smoked all of them."
If the story is true that has got to be some kind of record. I'm not sure how many hours the recording session lasted, but there is only so high a man can get.
Biggie Smalls really was the illest.

On the latest episode of "Living The Life" Jermaine Dupri takes Bow Wow and a few friends to a Kobe Bryant basketball camp.
None of them thought they could beat the all-world player in a straight up game of one-on-one, but Bow suggested he could hang with Kobe if he was spotted a few points.
Kobe took Bow up on the challenge and not only took him to school, but talked mad sh*t while doing it.
It's pretty funny watching the 5'7 Bow Wow get treated like a kid by Bryant, who is a foot taller.

MEXICO CITY — Fighting among the Zetas gang and other vicious drug cartels led to the deaths of more than 40 people whose bodies were found in three Mexican cities over a 24-hour span, a government official said Saturday.
At least 20 people were killed and five injured when gunmen opened fire in a bar late Friday in the northern city of Monterrey, where the gang is fighting its former ally, the Gulf Cartel, said federal security spokesman Alejandro Poire.
Body on the floor at club in Monterrey where at least 20 people were murdered
Eleven bodies shot with high-powered rifles were found earlier Friday, piled near a water well on the outskirts of Mexico City, where the gang is fighting the Knights Templar, Poire said. That is an offshoot of the La Familia gang that has terrorized its home state of Michoacan.
Poire said an additional 10 people were found dead early Saturday in various parts of the northern city of Torreon, where the Zetas are fighting the Sinaloa cartel headed by Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman.
"The violence is a product of this criminal rivalry ... surrounding the intent to control illegal activities in a community, and not the only the earnings that come with it, but also with transporting drugs to the United States," Poire said in a news conference.
Poire provided no more details on the killings in Torreon in the border state of Coahuila.
Coahuila state officials said the 10 bodies in Torreon had been mutilated and left in a sports-utility vehicle. Seven of the victims were men and three were women, and all had been killed several days earlier, said Fernando Olivas, a state prosecutor's representative in Torreon.
In Monterrey, 16 people died at the Sabino Gordo bar in the worst mass killing in memory in the northern industrial city, where violence has spiked since the Gulf and Zetas broke their alliance early last year. Four others died later at the hospital and five were injured, said Jorge Domene, security spokesman for the state of Nuevo Leon, where Monterrey is located.
Other downtown businesses closed earlier than usual after news of the massacre broke.
In Valle de Chalco, a working class suburb southeast of Mexico City, a man was found alive among the dumped bodies and was taken to a hospital, said Antonio Ortega, a spokesman for the Mexico State police.
He said some of the bodies were blindfolded and had their hands tied. Poire said one woman was found seriously injured.
State officials said police found another body nearby a few hours later but could not confirm it was related to the mass attack.
Ortega said he didn't know if the victims were shot at the scene or were taken to site.
The capital region has been largely spared the widespread drug violence that grips parts of Mexico.
But some poorer areas of the sprawling metropolis of 20 million people have begun to see killings and decapitations committed by street gangs that are remnants of splintered drug cartels.
In another incident allegedly involving Zetas, the Mexican Navy said Friday it rescued a former mayor of Reynosa, across from McAllen, Texas, who had been kidnapped along with his son. Four alleged Zeta members were arrested at the scene after an anonymous tip informed the navy of former Mayor Humberto Valdez's abduction Thursday, according to the Navy statement.
Poire repeated the government insistence that criminals, not the government's crackdown on organized crime, are causing the violence. More than 35,000 people have died since President Felipe Calderon stepped up the attack on organized crime in 2006, according to official figures. Some groups put the number at more than 40,000.
"The violence won't stop if we stop battling criminals," Poire said. "The violence will diminish as we accelerate our capacity to debilitate the gangs that produce it."
Federal authorities apprehended La Familia's alleged leader in late June, claiming the arrest was a debilitating blow to the gang. Jose de Jesus Mendez Vargas was alleged to be the last remaining head of the cartel, whose splinter group, the Knights Templar, continues to fight for control of areas La Familia once dominated.
Mexican authorities also arrested Jesus Enrique Rejon Aguilar, a co-founder of the Zetas drug cartel who is suspected of involvement in the February killing of a U.S. customs agent.
