A light skinned female was coming out of a bodega, when a rival chick catches her slipping and damn near Debo's her.
I said damn near...the light skinned chick had heart, and once she cleared her head a little bit she put up a good fight.
Kind of hard to respect someone, male or female that tries to sneak an opponent to gain an advantage, so in my opinion the female that got snuck won.
what yall think?

Kanye West is roaring back into the spotlight with a series of much-publicized, surprise visits to technology and media companies from Facebook and Twitter to XXL magazine. At Friday's (July 30) visit to Rolling Stone's headquarters, the lyricist broke down the inspiration behind his forthcoming effort.
"Everyone says all great art comes from pain but I think my greatest art comes from excitement and joy. It's a completely different perspective about being extremely excited about stuff that is only cool to me," West enthused in a The Louis Vuitton Don also discussed some of the things that get him amped. "Like, when I tweeted, 'What's your credenza game?' I was very excited about that credenza," West smiled.
Although the outspoken star entered the game as a rapper, West has toyed with the boundaries of hip-hop in his recent music, most notably with his vocally-driven, Auto-Tuned, 2008 effort, 808's and Heartbreak. The lyricist revealed during his Stone visit that he sought to widen the scope of his work beyond hip-hop.
"It was important to not be limited by the art form of rap but to have rap bring it to another level," West said. "Is it rap or is it poetry? Is it spoken word? Is it [a] speech?"
West also spit some of his favorite bars from his untitled fifth studio album which juxtaposes a range of contradictions.
"You're heaven, you're my angel/You're my heaven, you're my hell/You're my now, you're my forever/You're my freedom, you're my jail/You're my lies, you're my truth/You're my war, you're my truce/You're my questions, you're my proof/You're my stress and you're my masseuse," 'Ye rhymed.
West reflected on his role as an artist and said he feels an obligation to open the eyes of his fans.
"There's people throughout history that their responsibility is to be conveyors of truth onto [the] next generations," West said. "I feel like I'm that type of person that has to carry on the truth and tell the story not history."
In addition to looking out for the next generation, West lamented his perceived lack of swagger in the game and called for artists to reach for the "greatness of rock 'n roll."
"They're all scared. All the people that could be real rock stars just get scared," West said. "It takes so much for a me or an Eminem to come back and embrace and say, 'You know what? We have to deliver this on a major level to make a difference.'"
West's album is expected to be released in September.
Foxy Brown insists that claims she flashed her bottom at a neighbor are "total lies," saying it couldn't have happened because, contrary to what the neighbor told cops, she wasn't wearing any underwear.
The rapper was also reportedly involved in a fracas in the lobby of the apartment building of her manager, Bernadette Brennan, on Thursday night -- but told us it was "just an argument between three women."
About the alleged July 21 mooning incident in Brooklyn, which ended in her arrest, Foxy tells us: "I couldn't have mooned Arlene Raymond because I wasn't wearing any underwear, in a Sharon Stone kind of 'Basic Instinct' way. She told the cops she'd seen my underwear -- but what underwear?"
"I had been to visit my mother and was waiting outside for my boyfriend to pick me up, and she called the cops from inside her house," Brown said. "There was no fight. When the cops showed up I thought they wanted an autograph."
About the Thursday clash at Brennan's West 43rd Street building, Brown's friend, Veronica Pereira, tells us she accused Brennan of carrying a fake Birkin bag.
Reports said it ended up in a fight and Foxy threw a BlackBerry. But Brown told us: "An argument started because my manager had booked us for two interviews but only gave us 20 minutes notice for hair and makeup. My manager was yelling and screaming at my friend. It was a heated exchange between three friends. I never hit anyone."
A witness to the fracas told us: "Foxy [had] kept them waiting six hours. She came into the lobby cursing at the doorman, refused to accept responsibility for being late and blamed it on everyone else."
Brown said: "My album 'Black Roses' is going to be about redemption and learning from past mistakes. I am tired of people baiting me, stalking me and provoking me . . . I have the biggest heart. I do so much good for the community. It really hurts."
Her lawyer, Salvatore Strazzullo said, "Foxy was not the aggressor, it was just a spat between a manager and a client."

Superstar singer/songwriter/actor, Ne-Yo is enjoying a tremendously successful career. His three solo albums, 'In My Own Words', 'Because Of You' and 'Year Of The Gentleman' are all certified platinum.
His private life seem to be going great at the moment as well. His girlfriend, Monyetta Shaw is expecting the couple's first child in January 2011.
There is one problem however, that just won't go away. For some reason Ne-yo has been dogged by rumors that he is gay. Despite the fact that there is no proof and the singer has had well publicized relationships with women, the rumor still persists.
Ne-Yo spoke with Fox All Access host Chris Leary recently and addressed the issue.
"There's one rumor that for whatever reason, will not die. I'm convinced that it's just because they really can't figure out anything else to say about me. Which kinda doesn't make any sense because if you really just wanted to talk bad about me you could," the singer says.
"But there's this whole gay thing that keeps following me around. [People think] Anybody that sings and has a penis is gay. So I'm part of that elite squad, according to multiple blog sites and whatnot. I guess it's because I've never shot a person, or talked about shooting a person or had a desire to shoot a person...that I'm gay."
He goes on to talk about rumors being something you just have to deal with as an entertainer.

Sean 'Diddy' Combs has been taking secret singing lessons to prepare for his first record release with new group Diddy Dirty Money.
The Bad Boy Records boss has teamed with singer Kalenna Harper and former Danity Kane member Dawn Richard to form the new trio, which is set to debut its first album, Last Train to Paris, in September.
The rapper/producer displayed his vocal abilities on the band's single Angels last year but he admits he's been quietly working on sharpening up his singing skills.
He says, "On this new album there's a love story and in this love story I'm expressing myself in different ways, and sometimes I'm singing. I wanted to make sure I wasn't going to have myself out there. I was going to take the proper lessons."

After Ciara's 2009 album "Fantasy Ride" failed to meet expectations -- selling a meager 195,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan -- following the success of 2006's "Ciara: The Evolution," which sold 1.3 million copies, and her "Goodies" debut, which sold 2.7 million -- many counted her out.
But with the help of lead single "Ride" from "Basic Instincts," her fourth studio album due Oct. 5 on Jive
Records, the R&B singer/dancer/actress is back with a vengeance.
The single, produced by Christopher "Tricky" Stewart and written by the-Dream -- who together helmed the entire album -- is No. 5 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and No. 42 on the Billboard Hot 100 after 13 weeks on each. The track has sold 250,000 downloads to date, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
"The track has caught on because it's infectious, memorable and returns Ciara to her fan base," Stewart says. "The last album we had a number of people in our ears not believing in our vision. This time Ciara drew the line and really fought for what she believed in."
Another reason: Sex sells. Ciara takes that adage a step further than she did on her "Love Sex Magic" song and video with Justin Timberlake from her last album. Her limber writhing in a bodysuit in the videoclip seems demure compared with "Ride." The highly sexified, push-the-envelope track finds Ciara boasting about her sexual prowess ("I can do it up and down, I can do circles/To him I'm a gymnast, this room is my circus," she sings in a breathy tenor) atop a thumping, slinky beat.
The accompanying video, directed by Diane Martel, is just as explicit as the lyrics. The clip features Ciara provocatively gliding and bouncing atop a mechanical bull while wearing a wet T-shirt, among other highly sexualized visuals -- so much so that BET Networks banned the video from its channel.
"Ride" isn't the only promising track gleaned from "Basic Instinct" so far; "Gimme Dat," a more uptempo but equally brash song was released as a buzz track. "I've been gone for too long, now it's time I take it back," she confidently opens the song over a lively, bass-driven dance beat. Additionally, a remix to "Ride," featuring OutKast rapper André 3000, was released on the Internet.
While Ciara's album was pushed back a number of times and an official second single hasn't been released yet, her recent chart successes have many rooting for her and the future of her music career. "I've never doubted her talents or her will to succeed."I am grateful to work with such a talented artist as Ciara," the-Dream tells Billboard.

NEW YORK (Billboard) – Rappers have a propensity for christening themselves with royal titles to promote their standing in hip-hop (e.g., King of the South, Prince of Rap). But for Bun B, the less-regal handle Trill OG was the most fitting.
"My plan is just to ignite the fire that speaks to the issues that go on in the streets," Bun B (born Bernard Freeman) says about the moniker, which stands for "true and real original gangster."
To do so, the 37-year-old rapper joined forces with Young Jeezy, the late Pimp C (partner to Bun B in the duo UGK), Yo Gotti and Gucci Mane, among others, for "Trill OG" the album, out Tuesday (August 3) on Rap-a-Lot/Fontana. J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, Drumma Boy and Boi-1da are among the set's producers.
Billboard: You have a song with 2Pac (deceased rapper Tupac Shakur), Pimp C and Trey Songz on "Trill OG" called "Right Now." How did that come together?
Bun B: We had these verses that Pimp and I had already recorded for a 2Pac tribute album. We had submitted the music but it wasn't accepted, for some reason. But it recently came out of the archives and I was able to put a new verse on there and some new sounds and voices to really bring new life out of it. The ... subject matter is something that Pimp C and 2Pac were known for: the ladies. So it made sense to bring in Trey Songz to tie it all together.
Billboard: There are a lot of Texas-bred artists on the album, including Slim Thug, LeToya and Play-N-Skillz. How important is it still to rep your hometown?
Bun B: Texas has had incredible moments in the history of hip-hop. But there is a misconception that because we aren't at the forefront that we aren't here at all. But we're still making music, going on tour and getting in front of and connecting with the people.
Billboard: How was recording this album different from your last one, especially considering this is your first solo release since Pimp C's death?
Bun B: There was no anxiety behind this one, actually. There was no dealing with Pimp C being locked up, or Pimp C passing away. There wasn't that kind of pressure. We took up to a year to record this album and allowed everyone working on it to put their best foot forward. No one had to rush. If we didn't like something, we scrapped it and tried it again. Because of that, this is a really strong album.
Billboard: What is the goal you want to achieve with "Trill OG?"
Bun B: It's time for Texas to move back to the top, and in order for that to happen, someone has to take charge. Since I call myself the Trill OG, the first thing I have to do is round up the troops.
That's what this album is -- to show that Texas is back. I'm just taking the lead and bringing everyone else with me.
