Yesterday (April 19) was National Hiring Day for McDonald's. The goal was to hire 50,000 people in a day.
Sounds like a great thing right? It would have been if not for a couple of hood heathens fighting Cleveland, Ohio. The end result was one of the participants of the fight, got in her car and backed over several people.
"I was filling out my application when I saw two girls fighting," Joseph Shores told Fox 8. "I don't know their names, but they were fighting over drama, hood stuff."
Police say the fight started between two girls over a boy, but then spilled over into the crowd of people waiting to hand in job applications.
"One girl was on top of the driver, beating her. Then the driver went forward, somehow it kicked into reverse, and the car went backwards, hitting three people. It was crazy!" said Arnecia Patterson.
The four people that were hit by the car were taken to the hospital. None with life threatening injuries. Police caught the passenger in the car and charged her with felonious assault. They are still searching for the driver.
SMFH... Micky D's giving away jobs and people can't leave that hood ish at the crib for a couple of hours.

Last week there was a rumor floating around that DJ Pauly D of the reality tv show Jersey Shore had signed with 50 Cent's G-Unit Records.
Yesterday (April 19) on Shade 45, DJ Whoo Kid said it's a done deal, with Pauly signing to 50's G-Note Records.
"I'm not a real dj, I guess you guys don't know that so maybe that's why they're signing a dj to the team," Whoo Kid said jokingly. "He has new records that he wants to showcase and since 50 is doing a lot with [rapper] Hot Rod, he wants to broaden the horizon."

Dr Dre just won a huge lawsuit against the current owners of Death Row Records, WIDEawake Entertainment.
Yesterday (April 19), U.S. District Judge Christina Snyder ruled that Death Row doesn't have the rights to sell the classic album 'The Chronic' online.
Dr Dre will now receive 100% of all online sales, while Death Row can only sell the album in CD, cassette, 8-track and vinyl sales as stipulated by Dre's original contract with Suge Knight and the old Death Row.
"For years, Death Row Records forgot about Dre when they continued to distribute his music digitally and combined his hits with weaker Death Row tracks in an attempt to elevate the stature of their other artists," Dre's attorney Howard King told the Associated Press. "We are gratified that the federal court has unambiguously declared that Death Row has no right to engage in such tactics, and must hold all proceeds from these illicit distributions in trust for our client."

Fellow XXL Freshmen, Lil B and Freddie Gibbs aren't seeing eye to eye on Lil B's next artistic endeavor.
As we reported over the weekend, Lil B told the crowd at Coachella he was naming his next album 'I'm Gay.' Since then reaction from other rappers and the media has been swift and sometimes harsh.
“[The] Lil B sh*t was funny at first but now I feel like it’s just a bunch of white people laughing at a nigga, like a minstrel show. Sh*t is wack. I ain’t dissin’ gays, if you gay that’s yo biz," Freddie Gibbs told XXL.
The Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) is monitoring the situation to make sure Lil B isn't just using the opportunity for publicity.
“As a lyricist, Lil B knows that words matter,” a spokesperson for GLAAD told XXL. “Slurs have the power to fuel intolerance. We hope that Lil B’s album title is not just a gimmick, and is really a sincere attempt to be an ally. He has the platform and the voice. We hope he uses it in a positive way."
Rapper Killer Mike can kind of see where Lil B is coming from, but only to an extent.
“He’s a happy guy, Gay means happy. It makes perfect sense to me. It’s a provocative, bold thing to me. That’s what B does," Killer said. It’s not as shocking to me. From a social element . . . this just feels like knocking down walls and stereotypes, embracing controversy and flipping it. Bravo to him for being the next Madonna. I also don’t think Lil B could ever make some of the music that I make. If he’s rapping about (gay) lifestyle the whole album, no I probably wouldn’t want to hear it. If he’s rapping on some hip-hop shit and it’s a weird ass, weird Lil B album . . . I’d probably buy it like i I did his last (album) and have a little laugh."

Peggy Scott Adams married into a family business that is quite different from most. Her funeral home in Compton, California that gives a person's family, friends and even sometimes complete strangers a chance to view their bodies quickly, without even having to get out of their car.
The Adams Mortuary was reportedly inspired by a couple of funeral homes in the south that offer the same drive thru service.
"It's a unique feature that sets us aside from other funeral parlors," Scott Adams told the L.A. Times. "You can come by after work, you don't need to deal with parking, you can sign the book outside and the family knows that you paid your respects - It's a convenience thing."
The funeral home is popular among gang members because of it's easy accessibility and bullet proof glass casing.
"It's a ministry for me to be able to help people at one of the most traumatic times of their life," Scott Adams says.
Would you be ok with a deceased loved one being viewed in this way?
