OUT-92







What’s up STLians! This is Ma’atology here one more time for ya…. It has been a week for the STL (especially finding out that the STL is one the ten cities in America where you can’t get any sleep!) and beyond the MO. But before I get to the local bitz, on a national scene, there have been some things going on:

The Superdome in H-town reopened for biz with the Saints v. Falcons game post-Hurricane Katrina (I wonder if any of the proceeds from that game will go to plane tix for Nawlins folk who wanna come back home?). Also, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan has been very ill leaving his duties to his right hand men as he deals with his undisclosed illness (reports say he has lost 35 pounds!). President Dubya Bush signed into law a bill introduced by Illinois Senator Barak Obama that would publicly disclose all recipients of federal funding and financial assistance with Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (S. 2590) will allow taxpayers to go online and see how their money is being spent. (O’Bama is looking presidential by the minute., eh? ). And what’s up with
Dallas Cowboys receiver Terrell “TO” Owens? Did he try and kill himself? Did PR people try to cover it up and have him deny the allegations? This dilemma is definitely a pill too hard to swallow (no pun intended. )

On somber musical note, the STL area has lost yet another blues legend to the other side. A couple of weeks ago, the STL lost blues legend Bennie Smith. Now another father of the blues has left this physical world, Henry Townshend. According to stltoday.com, Henry "Mule" Townsend, patriarch of St. Louis blues music, was the last remaining link to St. Louis blues' earliest days. Townsend, who was 96, was the only blues artist to record in every decade of blues recordings, and possibly the only artist in general to record from the 1920s to the current decade. The renowned singer, guitarist and pianist died last Sunday of pulmonary edema in Grafton, Wis., where he was being honored at a blues festival. For more on Mr. Townshend and his works, go to www.stltoday.com.

This week, my heart has been weary on the developments that occurred in my hometown of East St. Louis with the now national covered story about Tiffany Hall (SEEN ABOVE IN BLACK HAIR) who has been charged in the killing of her best friend Jimella Tunstall (SEEN ABOVE IN BROWN HAIR) and her unborn baby and the killing of Tunstall’s three young children (SEEN IN PIC ABOVE) who were found in the late mother’s apartment in the John Deshields Apartment Complex in East St. Louis. The oldest, 7-year-old DeMond Tunstall, was found in the dryer and the younger two children — 2-year-old Ivan Tunstall-Collins and 1-year-old Jinela Tunstall — in the washer. Hall, 24, appeared before a judge Monday via a video monitor from the St. Clair County Jail. She was arraigned on a charge of first-degree murder and intentional homicide of an unborn child. She pleaded not guilty.

This is beyond words of this situation and my heart goes out to the Tunstall family. And to bring it more closer to home, my mother said that her friend knew of Hall inasmuch as she brought her young daughter (who she got custody back in 2001 according to reports) to the Hazel Bland Promise Center where my mother’s friend works) located in the 2900 block of East ST. Louis (it also was discovered that the daughter did not report to school in a few weeks before Hall went on a killing spree.) The city of East St. Louis is in mourning. America is in morning. The world is morning. Let us all pray for our recovery as well. The funeral for 23-year-old Jimella Tunstall and her three children is scheduled for noon this Friday at Mount Pisgah Missionary Baptist Church, 1111 Pennsylvania Avenue, in East St. Louis.


To help the Tunstall family, the East St. Louis police and fire departments have established a fund to help pay the funeral and burial expenses of the Tunstall family. Police officers and firefighters will collect money from 5 to 7 p.m. through Thursday at these locations in East St. Louis on the Corner of Martin Luther King Drive and Bond Avenue: 15th and Bond Avenue.; 25th and State Street; 59th and State Street. And Donations also can be made at any Regions Bank. As of this writing over $30,000 dollars has been raised with $15,000 donated by an anonymous celebrity who lives in the ST. Louis area.

www.stltoday.com. (I will have more uplifting East St. Louis news to report later on in this post.)

OK, onto my week:

Last Saturday, I went to fashion show rehearsal at YMCA at Emerson and it turned out OK. It was a two hour rehearsal (as opposed to the original five hour rehearsal). We rehearsed all six scenes that will be featured in the show. Their have been some scaling down of the cast albeit it is a PRO BONO service (and it is on a Saturday morning wherr most people do their usual Saturday things) . Me and this brotha named Avery are the original guys from day one (I believe model Malik Ali has fired himself). The females are touch and go as far as regular attendance. It’s really turning into a reality show for real. It should be called FASHION SHOW SHOWDOWN where the models go to rehearsal and see which ones will make it to the runway base don their own interest in being a part of the show.

The behind the scenes actions are what is expected. Getting dressed for clothes have been an experience (The guys are getting their clothes at K &G on West Florissant) and the producers of the show communicating with the designers and stores and making sure they are on the same page as far as when we should go and get measured for our clothes. . There is also a lot of buddy-buddy stuff going on as far as people forming alliances on how they are going to dress or coordinate their fashion steps on the runway (Me included. LOL). Also interesting last week was one of the guy models asked me if I was the husband to one of the co-founder’s of DIVA cause he was interested in her and didn’t want to disrespect me if she was . I found that to be interesting cause the times that she has been there, we’ve shared hugs and talked and at eh last rehearsal, I was flirtatious with her as I was practicing my walk. I find it interesting how assumptions and allegations turn into rumor in a bat of an eye. But overall, the rehearsal was a good one.

Other than doing the rehearsal, I didn’t do much. I was lagged from this past week from the Chingy and Kevin Johnson parties and working the late shift at the Water Geyser/Metro park project. So, I spent my weekend chilled at the crib (I got a couple of calls form Kameron and X-Jam wondering if I was going out but I didn’t answer due to my hibernation). While chillin at the crib, I looked at a few movies like “Misery” on TNT (Actress Kathy Bates looked like Rosie O’Donell in this flick. LOL) and this interesting flick called “Trick” on LOGO (Tori Spelling is surprisingly good in this flick).

I also saw an episode of the new season of Mad TV and they had a funny parody of the swagger of hip-hop rappers when they perform on stage. In the sketchm two black actors play hip-hop rappers called Overhand Left (FUNNY ALREADY) and they kept repeating “Ok, 1-2, 1-2, here we go” bouncing back and forth on stage, but the catch was they never actually rapped. (FUNNY). On the DIRECTV menu, the episode showed that Chingy was a guest star on there. I didn’t know what he was going to do on there, until this scene (which was the last scene BTW). Chingy walked on stage with OL (wearing shades and a The Root of All Evil short-tee on) and was about to spit on the mike and just said, “I-2-3” and walked off. CLASSIC.

On Sunday, I tried to stay up to listen to the Freeman Bosley Junior Show on 100.3 The Beat, but I fell asleep during Nicci Roach’s Nic at Nine so I don’t know what she talked about on there. (I wondered if Nicci “read” her colleagues for talking about her while she was on vacation. LOL) Later on that day, I taped the season premiere episode of Desperate Housewives (this show aint the same after Alfre Woodard’s and Mechad Brooks’ characters were jailed and killed off respectively and were not returning this season), The Wire, and Def Comedy Jam. All three episodes were on the money (especially The Wire. The this episode of the new season came off bangin with homo-gangsta thug character Omar—one of the most intriguing characters on TV ever--waking up from bed next to his male Chino lover at the crack of morning, putting on his satin blue PJs and robe, going to the convenient store in the PJ’s to get some Cheerios and complaining that the store didn’t have Honey Nut Cheerios. (CLASSIC)

MA’AT-TIDBITZ. Well, folks, I did not win Best Blog in the Riverfront Times Best of 2006 Poll. The winner was controversial blogger Byron Crawford (He was featured in a cover story with RFT, so he definitely had exposure). I wanna thank those who voted for my blog. I knew it would be a longshot, but hey, there’s nothin wrong with a try (as Janet sang on her All For You, “Trust a try”) I was grateful when the RFT picked my blog to be picked as Blog-of the Week in its Unreal section earlier this year, so I know that my blogsite, along with the people who email and talk to me that my site is making a difference.

This week, I emailed off my bio and pic to be featured in the National Black Who’s Who Book. The Publisher Keith Antone Willis sent me the info last week and decide dto go ahead and submit. They are going to have an official unveiling reception of all who are feature din the book on Nov. 6 at the Ritz Carlton in Clayton. I will keep you posted on the outcome of this…………

Thanks to INKOSI Designs’ Kevin Bryant for emailing me last week saying lst weeks ‘s blog wa steh bomb. Thank you and I will continue on givin it to ya.

CHART-IDBITZ.. The Billboard charts is still treating our STL artists very kindly. There is much action going on the charts for them that even I couldn’t predict what could happen. .
On the Hot 100, Jibbs is still leading the way , but not for long so it seems. Jibbs track, “Chain Hang Low,” spends a second week at No. 8 in its 8th week on the chart.

Closely behind Jibbs is Chingy as his song, “Pulling Me Back” with Tyrese rebounds and moves up 6 spaces from 15 to 9 in its 15th week on the chart! (Man, talk about a song with legs! ). I thought for sure this song was going to rn its course when it peaked at No. 13 two weeks ago, but as I said last week, “It’s hard to say what will happen now that Chingy’s song on this chart is starting to wane. Will it reach the Top 10. I predicted last week that if it does reach the Top 10, it will peak at No. 10.” Well, the song beat my prediction by one space as it reached No. 9 (his fourth Top 10 hit BTW). Will it go higher than No. 9? Maybe. Will it do better chart wise than Jibbs? I doubt it. Jibbs song is still new on the charts and it made a strong showing when it entered the Top 10 last week. ( As far as Chingy’s new CD, “Hoodstar” the album debuted at No. 8 on the Hot 200 Albums and No. 3 on the R&B Albums chart selling close to 70,000 copies in its first week.)

In regards to Nelly’s duet with Janet, “Call On Me.” This song is the yo-yo of the year as it goes up and down the chart by the week. Last week, it moved down 13 spaces down the chart 13 from 37 to 50. Now, the song has yo-yo’d up the chart as it moves up 14 spaces from No. 50 to No, 36 in its 14th week on the chart! I tell ya, it’s hard to predict whether this song will go higher than its peak of No. 25, but it’s safe to say that the song has a possibility to do that. As far as its reaching the Top 10, well, I’d day , it has a strong chance of reaching the Top 20, if it regains more momentum up the chart in the next two weeks.


On the R&B/Hip-Hop chart, Chingy and Nelly switch places yet again at the top. This week, Nelly and Janet returns to the No. 1 spot and Chingy’s former No. 1 hit moves down to No. 3. this is too crazy for real. Who would have thought that STL rappers would be taking turns at No. 1 on this chart. As far as newbie Jibbs, well, the song lost its bullet and fell five spaces from 16 (at its peak) to No. 21 in its 11th week on the chart. If Billboard’s conventional wisdom is any indication, the song can regain its bullet and meet Chingy and Nelly in the Top 10. Can it do it? I’m sure it can. Will it hit No. 1 on this chart like Nelly and Chingy? That’s doubtful because this song is doing a much slower chart gain than on the Hot 100.


In unrelated Nelly news, according to www.panachereport.com, Rapper Nelly got the name Moses tattooed on his right arm because he so closely identifies with the Biblical leader. Nelly has a collection of tattoos, including, the word "lunatic" above his navel, a heart on his chest and five playing cards and dice on his right arm. Nelly explains, "I got the name Moses on my inner right arm. I can related to this story as far as helping people out. "That's how my boys (The St. Lunatics) and I felt about the St. Louis music scene. "When we hit it big we felt like we were leading some of the top musical talent out of there, on to broader horizons." Okay, is it me or does Nelly stating to become the Messiah of St. Louis hip-hop?

STL-TIDBITZ. Where is STL lawyer Kwame Thompson? I hear he’s in Atlanta and got his own law firm going on. Does anyone know what’s up?.... .............Speaking of M.I.A. Wherr’s 100.3The Beat’s Dwight Hypeman Stone? I haven’t been hearing him hosting his own Crunk for Christ radio show for past two Sundays (gospel star Praiz has been filling in with Stone’s other Crunk co-host)…. ..................Congrats to local STL artists American Idol finalist Nikko Smith and gospel star Praiz (who is dubbed the Nelly of Gospel) will be the opening acts at the Joe concert at the Orpheum Theatre Sept. 30 (See Events section below for more details AND OUT 91 FOR A SPECIAL EVENTZ PREVEIW OF THIS EVENT) . I also heard that local singer/actress and Café Soul co-craetor Rochelle “Coco Soul” did her thang as the understudy for Denise Thimes in the long running hit musical Menopause the Musical at the Playhouse at Westport last Saturday. I know she did her thing and for her to be understudying for Ms Thimes, I’m sure was a feat . Congrats Coco…..........................comedian/writer Charlie Murphy, who was in town Thursday to promote his comedy show at the Pageant, was on Fox 2 Morning Show talking about what happened last year t when he was booed off the satge at the Fox stage (Check out OUT 16, Oct 2005 POST FOR MY REVIEW OF IT). He said that he didn’t bomb, but a heckler ruined his show for him when he talked about the uys; gold tooth. He said that Nelly told him that a lot of people in the STl wear gold teeth and that he insulted the heckler as well as the STL audience. Yeah, okay. I was there atteh show and even before the heckler shouted out that he wasn’t funny, his routine was lame. So, don’t blame it on the gold tooth brother…..............................Also on the Morning show was Martial arts/cage fight camp Jermaine “Bam” Andre talking about his cage fight bout on Oct.4 (SEE EVENTZ for more info). He was all shirtless exposing his muscles (his arms are bigger than his head!) and it seemed as though Fox anchor Randi Naughton was “amored” by him after the interview with him via satteltke and commented to anchor Jon Pertzborn that Jermaine was “veeeeeeeeeery handsome.” Hmmm. What’s really going on?................


On the East Side, there is a lot of buzz going on for the Malcolm Martin Memorial park (where I supervise security officers on the East Riverfront area near the Casino Queen) )platform that is set for construction this month and the committee for a bronze statue for the 1st black mayor in the ESL. Fiorst off, there are reports that the Southern Illinois Contractor’s Association (SICA) spearheaded by prez Guy Gettis is urging the Mayor Carol Officer and the board to name the platform in honor of SICA and former ESL Mayor Gordon Bush, who, in SICA’s opinion helped put the plan together for the park and the Geyser that is there (Which is the tallest geyser in the world BTW) and helped blacks get construction during the time of the geyser’s construction.


As far as the bronze statue, the SICA is spearheading a campaign for a bronze statue for the late James Williams, who was the first black mayor in ESL (1971-75). SICA wants the statue placed at city hall parking lot. To help raise funds, SICA has classes that people can take on Williams’ history every Friday at the Emerson Center (headed by Gary Pearson) at 1405 State Street and a picnic next month (SEE EVENTZ BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS ON THIS). I will keep you posted on both of these “boogie” projects.

Just questioning if eBay enables you to sell [url=http://www.ticketchoice.com.au]concert tickets[/url] online? Do you know if you will find any restrictions based on what country you are in?

My parents have just known as me and asked if i could "get rid" of their two tickets to a concert as they wont be able to make it as a result of another family event.

Apart from asking pals etc, i thought ebay would be a good location to sell them.

But whats ebay's policy on marketing tickets? Ive heard alot about it on the news but ive forgotten what happened.

and if it matters, the concert is within this coming month

Thanks ahead of time for the advice.
