OUT 175





Hello one and all. This is your blogger boy givin it to ya one more time. Well as Marvin sang in 1973,

“Let’s get it on.”


Besides the Duke Lacrosse rape trial hoopla and suicide bomber flowing himself up in the Iraqi parliament cafeteria in a stunning assault in the heart of the heavily fortified, U.S.-protected Green Zone today on Thursday, and killing at least eight people, the national scale has been on the whole radio /TV show shock jock Don Imus and his now infamous comment about the all-black female Rutgers U comment. “nappy headed hos” and the backlash.

As of this writing, reports say that Imus (PICTURED ABOVE) hinted that his days on the airwaves may be numbered after a 30-year career that erupted in controversy over racist and sexist comments about the Rutgers women's college basketball team earlier this week.

According to www.canada.com, Imus pushed ahead with his annual on-air charity fundraiser Thursday, a day after MSNBC pulled the plug on his TV show because of his latest racial slur.

"This may be our last radiothon, so we need to raise about $100 million," Imus said at the start of the event, which has raised more than $40 million since 1990.

"I've been running my mouth for 30 years and I've said some stupid stuff," he said. But this time, he continued, his remarks were "really stupid."

Pressure from advertisers and politicians ( and the Rev Al Sharpton) have mounted on the radio host since he referred to the Rutgers female basketball players (PICTURED ABOVE) as "nappy-headed hos" last week.


After Imus made the comment, one of his sidekicks added: "They look exactly like the Toronto Raptors."

"Only tougher," added another on-air voice.

MSNBC dropped its simulcast of the "Imus in the Morning" radio program and aired news instead on Thursday. The decision did not affect Imus' nationally syndicated radio show (AS OF THIS WRITING)


His ultimate fate depends on the CBS Corp., which owns both the radio station WFAN-AM that is the host's broadcast home, and the syndicator Westwood One, which distributes "Imus in the Morning" to stations across the country.

CBS Radio, which has suspended Imus for two weeks without pay beginning next week, said it would "continue to speak with all concerned parties and monitor the situation closely."

A growing list of sponsors - including American Express Co., Sprint Nextel Corp., Staples Inc., Procter & Gamble Co., and General Motors Corp. - had said they were pulling ads from Imus' show indefinitely

The Rutgers' women's basketball team(PICTURED ABOVE) , meanwhile, are scheduled to appear this Thursday on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" with their coach, Vivian Stringer.

Democrat Barack Obama on Wednesday became the first presidential candidate to call for Imus to be fired. "He didn't just cross the line, he fed into some of the worst stereotypes that my two young daughters are having to deal with today in America," said Obama, the only black candidate in the race.

(In an unrelated story, Sen. Barack Obama rasied $25 million in campaign contributions collecting in the first three months of this year just $1 million less than rival Hillary Rodham Clinton’s record haul and was a remarkable feat for a novice in national politics.)


Bruce Gordon, former head of the NAACP and a director of CBS Corp., said Wednesday the broadcasting company needs a "zero tolerance policy" on racism and hopes talk-show host Don Imus is fired for his demeaning remarks about the mostly black Rutgers women's basketball team.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++


Locally, we had an unexpected stretch of temperatures near the low 20s – winter like weather that may have taken a heavy toll on fruit trees and grapevines and I-170 is about to shut down for the First Phase of the 3 year construction closure, but people in the ST. Louis area are buzzing about the Imus ordeal.


Local radio shows have been on the bandwagon from the Breakfast Crew on Majic 104.9 FM to the Mark Reardon Show on KMOX Onion Horton on WESL, the Imus backlash is as hot as fish grease. Most of the comments have ranged from Al Sharpton being an opportunist in jumping on board with Imus;, that rappers who portray black women as ho’s in their lyrics must clean up their act too and why is the meeting that Imus is having with the black young women and the coach going to be a private session. One black guy on the Mike Reardon Show Wednesday nite said that why white people think that black people shouldnt have a right to be insulted by what Imus said and that black people should just forget about it.



Don’t get me wrong. Wrong is wrong, whatever color the person is. But, Imus has been doing racial slurs not only of blacks, but of many ethnic groups for over 30 years, long before rappers had the airwaves talking about niggas and hos. This is mirroring the Greaseman incident. In February 1999, while at WARW, he made a comment about James Byrd, who was murdered in 1998 after having been dragged behind a pickup truck by two white supremacists. The Greaseman had been playing a song by Lauryn Hill. He then stated, as a reference to the quality of her music, "and they wonder why we drag them behind trucks." This incident proved catastrophic to his radio career, igniting a firestorm of protest. He was fired from the outburst (but remember the black guy who was with him trying to diffuse the matter saying the Greaseman was a great guy?) .


But the issue at hand is more sexism than racism. . We live in a white rich male WASP society and anyone who doesn’t fall in that class, is treated as “other.” Or “minority” which, in their eyes means, “problem.” So, of course the standard is going to think the “other’ should forget about it or that the others should clean up tehri own house. But my question is, what makes the standard class feel like it is Ok to say it anyway, just because they hear the “other” class saying it? Should Imus give money to black-based groups his insult? Absolutely. Should he be fired? Definitely(I’m sure his nemesis Howard Stern is turning cartwheels over this! LOL) . Will there be another outrageous incident like this that will happen? Is the sky blue?

But I digress


AND now ONTO MY TRAVELS………………

LastThursday, I checked out Koncepts Inc’s, Spring Clean, a n invite only event at Nectar to celebrate the break in the new season. My only problem with it all was we had to pay 5 bones to enter. Now, with this being a special invite, you would think the RSVPers didn’t have to pay. Well, think again. Then they had a special VIP section in the club (which I was politely told to leave from) . Now, if you are specially invited, aren’t you already VIP? I find this to be a very peculiar M.O. her in the STL when it comes to VIP, but then again, who am I to judge, right?

Anyway, I had a good time. I got there already half buzzed on EVIL Eye so I was good. I was meeting and greeting and taking shots and even saw this little person brotha up in therre who had to straighten me out when I tried to take his pic on the sly. He walk’d up to me and said, “Naw, brotha, if you wanna take my picture, take my picture right.” All I could do was nod my head. I knew I was wrong for that, but hey, I was buzzed, so I blame the octane for that DOH move.

In the house were Rams player Torry Holt, St. Lunatics’ Kyjuan, Hipster Magazine’s Keenan Harris, Kamren Holbert, Prez of Collegiate 100 black Men Renaud Lucas (You still wanna wear my suede jacket you gotta be in the show. LOL) SYGU Group, Jamie Spencer, Treanna, model Jamelle, and DJ Enoch on the 1s and 2s. And I hear my girl Mocha Latte was therre but she was mostly outside passing out fliers.

On Friday, I had a nice and lengthy meeting with the Platinum Group’s Jacque and Leata Land on my fashion show project. We talked business, but we also had a good session on just life and affirmations to success. Former St. Louisan and fashion guru Robert Taliver also dropped by the Platinum Group’s office. . He was in town for Easter and to take care of some business while he was in town. '


After he left, before I knew it, I was chatting with the Lands for damn near 5 hours! (I thought fo sho I was gonna get a ticket parked on Washington but luckilly I didnt) I was planning on going to the I AM Boutique for the beginning of some of the fashions during STL fashion Week, but I started to get oldhead disease (gettin sleepy without a club nap. LOL). My plan was to meet with the Lands, go to the crib and rest, then check out I AM as well as some of Dee lee’s Laughs on the landing (it was free if you said you heard him and the comics on Dwight Stone’s show). But guess what I did? Goen to sleep. I didnt see nan one event.

On Saturday, I checked out my oldest nephew Jerome’s b-ball game at west haven Elementary school in Bellevile. He plays for a YMCA team. I haven’t been tone cause of my schedule but I made my way of going cause this is near the end of his season. His team won and they came back from behind in the 3rd quarter. His fam were in the stands cheering him on.


On Sunday, I peeped out the Glamour Ball and hair Show at the Adam’s Mark Hotel . I cant recall who put this show on (one of the sponsors though was Flawless magazine) , but I do know that the models came from Amore and hosted by (more like shouted by) Deandre Perryman. When I went to the front desk to ask about the fashion show, I was told it was on the 4th floor. So, I walked to the elevator to get to the 4th floor.

When I got to the floor, I saw the area empty. I didn’t know where the event was. Then I saw this sista who look’d as though she was part of some kind of event cause she had green furry eyelashes on. I asked her if she was part of the show and she said YES. I asked her where the event was. Her reply wsa, “I don’t know yet, we’re working that out. HUH?

Not a good sign.

She did direct me to the table to one of the smaller ballrooms where they had a table set up and two brothers were. I gave one of the brothers my name and to check and see if I was on the list. Well, you know I wasn’t after I call’d and let them know I was actually coming to this. LOL

When the brotha called up the coordinator of the event and said who I was, it was a go. I walked in and the crowd was about maybe 20 or so, sit down dinner table setting. The runway was comprised of white X-mas lights on both sides of the middle of the carpet. One side was for the entertainment (dee-jay and singing ) and the other said was where they had the chips and dips and water and a booth set up fro a local hand lotion biz (the name slips me now)

Anyway, the show was suppose to start about 8 p.m., but it went down about 30 minutes or so later. As I sat down and talked to those who I knew. I was asked by Delores Shante of Partyline and her companion if the seats I was near by taken. I told her “No, go right ahead.” Then Delores quipped, “I thought I might had to fight for them.” I couldn’t do nothing but laugh due to the uncomfortable moment, but it was all good.

Anway, the fashion show started with some local entertainers. They included Az One, this sexy sister duo (Destiny’s child meets Mary Mary). They were truly talented. They were pushin their CD and gave people their website for more info on them
(www.azonesing.com). What was funny was when Deandre walked up and interview them (with a mike) I was thinking, “Man. If he doesnt make it singing, he could definitely be the next host of Soul Train.” (LOL)

Next up was the host, Deandre who wowed him with some ac capella (Sam Cooke’s A Change Gon Come) and some of his original jams including “I Like it.” Then it was singer Nadia, the First Lady of Lock em Down Records who was accompanied by band Lamar harris And L. She was OK (The band was top notch though) . Her voice reminds me of Corrine Bailey Rae as far as her voice but more weathered. She did sing a very poignant song“What Would You Do” about spousal abuse and HIV that was provocative.

After about an hour, there was an intermission before the fashions started. Well, I decide dto walk around in the lobby and stretch my legs. Well, when I was about to walk back into the ballroom, this 40ish year old lady who was the coordinator I believe said, ‘You need to purchase a ticket.” I told her that I was already counted and the brotha at the table vouched for me. She act like I stole the last piece of chicken or something thr way she was carrying on (But it gets interesting after that).

During the fashion show, it was about 20 or so models (I heard some had to pay to get in there but that’s just hear say) . Some of the hair and clothes fashions included Eb’ne Hair, Wynobe Sky, Naji Couture and Cs2 (I heard scheduled designer Yani Co. dropped out to go to NYC!) . The show overall was cool. Nothing breathtaking. The fashions were hot. But it was your typical St. Louis fashion show.

My other interesting moment with the 40sih Y.O lady was right before I was heading out I looked at the table where they had a booth of this local business’s skin cream. I pick up a card and by the time I turn’d around the lady had to have been staring me down to se if I was about to steal some of the products on the table cause there was no one at the booth. So when I turned around, she turned around and walked off. Man, what is really going on, dude?

After the show, I greeted those who I knew and jetted back to the east Side to start my late night shift at the Water Geyser..........................................

On Wednesday, I peeped out Mocha Latte’s Lyrics on the Lou at the VIP Lounge at the Loft. I got there about 10 cause I had to get my work out on. I got there during the last half of the 1st act of poets. From the shows I’ve been to, this one had to be the most explosive.

The show started with the typical poets of the day (like 16 bars, Renee, etc.) and some newbies, but thing started to get interesting when this poet named Angle who is a 40 ish sista who is a regular, and from her demeanor, seems to be docile, but she always spit on the mike some erotic poetry that would make Vanessa Del Rio blush. This time around, she did a “story poem” about her girlfriend who is going though HIV because of her down low husband. Well the poem lit fire to the crowd cause her refrain in the poem was, “You Faggot bitch.”

After a few more poets and Round Two, poet/singer Robert Dillard got on the mic with his accompanied guitarist girlfriend and he seemed a little shook up (I don’t know if that’s for the stage or not), but before he sang, he got on his soapbox and said, “ I am gay and I don’t have HIV. Heterosexual men can give out HIV.”

WHOOSH!

In my mind, I was like, uh-oh. Its about to be on . If Angel comes back around, I knew in my bones that she was going to do her rebuttal—and I was right.

When she got on the mike she said that she wasn’t tryin to offend anyone wither poem and that she was only telling the story from her girlfriend’s P.O.V. who was going through the situation. Then, Mocha Latte got on the mike to stress that the event is for all to share regardless if you’re straight, gay or whatever. Then she proceeded to “offend” with her poems about how skinny bitches loses their men with big boned sistas like her and hw she has to tell them to stop callin her house askin where their man was. CLASSIC

But overall, the poets were pretty much the usual : sex, love, foot fetishes (You had to be there to see the live foot dance that Mocha did . LOL) ), and socialite Jamie Spencer (who told the crowd of his getting brushed by a car and surviving the ordeal) sang some John Legend for the crowd, but what was refreshing were two new poets to Lyrics Te’ V and Sir Ervin (who was in the Alton-based film, “Pieces of the Dream”) who was spittin some serious poetry like Nuyorican Café /Saul Williams stuff. It was definitely a breathe of fresh air from the dick and pussy poems that was being talked about. I am a vet of the poetry stage and it was mos def pleasing to hear some new expressions.

But I applaud Mocha for bringing her Lyrics on the Lou every Wednesday for those to share their feelings and for dialogue to come out of the sessions. If you got some time, check it out! Oh, Mocha, did you find your shoes? LOL

OUT 172





Hello one and all! This is Ma’atology one more ‘gain in the trenches on the blog world to give it ya. I had to switch over back to my old blog name cause my beta account is acting crazy. I cant load up pics!So in the meantime, I am transferring back to this account. And I must say, things have been getting interesting in regards to me and my blog these days—I’ll get into that later.

On a national tip, in all of the NCAA hoopla, the Florida Gators beat Ohio State 84-75 last Monday to become the first team since Duke in 1992 to repeat as national champions. This win completes a 2007 championship-game sweep of the Buckeyes (35-4) in college's two biggest sports — men's hoops and football. Florida, a 41-14 winner in the football title game in January, remains the only program in history to hold both championships at the same time.


And speaking of college ball, the world has lost a greta one, Legendary Grambling Coach Eddie Robinson died Tuesday at 88 from Altzeimer’s Disease. . He worked exceedingly hard for 57 years as football coach at Grambling State in Louisiana, where he won 408 games, most in history at the time he retired in 1997.


Looks like Prez Dubya is playin hard ball with Congress thsi week about his vetoing teh Contress' bill to shorten the stay of teh troops in Iraq. dubya sayin if he veto it, its gonna make some troops stay and some troops go pending on the money they wont give him to keep it going. My my my. Its getytin to be a lot like John Wayne up in teh Whiet House for real!

Sunjaya rules! LOL


April is also Jazz Awareness Month.



This week on April 4 marks the 39th anniversary of the death of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. If you wer living atthat time, where were you when you heard the news?


Local/National

The city was all in red as opening day festivities of the St. Louis Cards happened in and all around downtown St. Louis last Sunday. Hall of Famers Stan Musial, Bob Gibson and Lou Brock were on hand for the festivities, which included the traditional appearance of the Budweiser Clydesdales. Cardinals players entered in a motorcade that passed the World Series trophy, located near home plate. Manager Tony La Russa, arrested during spring training on a drunken driving charge -- was greeted warmly by the crowd of 45,429 at Busch Stadium, where every game has been a sellout since the ballpark opened last year. But it was bittersweet when the Cards lost to the Mets in a 6-1 victory Sunday night in the major league season opener.

The trial of Kevin Johnson is going to pushed to Oct 31 (of all days!) due to a mistrial. The jury couldn’t decdie whether Johnson should have gotten 1st Degree or 2nd degree pending on whether Johnson premieditated to kill the cop of Sgt. William McEntee on July 5, 2005. The theory was based on ice cooling in water! As Luther once crooned, “So Amazing!’”

St. louis Lambert Airport Director Kevin Dolliole announced this week that he’s resigning as chief at Lambert Field, after less than two years on the job, to be with his family in San Antonio. Dolliole, 51, began as airport director in May, 2005, having led San Antonio International Airport for six years before that. His wife and daughter, now a senior in high school, wanted to stay there.

St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay named Richard Hrabko airport director effective April 23. The $105 million renovation of the Main Terminal, which Dolliole unveiled in February, is expected to go forward.


And whats up with the allegations that eight St. Louis police guys giving away World Series tix last year that they confiscated from scalpers? A story in the Monday edition of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, citing unnamed police sources, said officers in the department's vice-narcotics unit gave about 30 confiscated tickets to relatives and friends, who used the tickets to attend games.Tickets are no longer torn at Busch Stadium but are electronically scanned. The tickets were stored as evidence after they were used, the newspaper reported.

A Police spokesman said the tickets should have been stored immediately after they were confiscated. We’ll see how the city handles this situation.

AND NOW ON TO MY TRAVELS.


On Friday, I did double duty and attended Stress Free Fridays which was hald at the Loft. This one was a special one cause the event also debut the beer from Anheuser Bush called American Pillsner by STL beer CEO Ray Hill along with his biz partners Stress Free’s Mario Wayne and Schmoo creator Stephen Bruce (PICTURED ABOVE ). It was one of Stress Free’s most populated Fridays. When I got there around 8 or so, it was no where in front of the Loft to even park! I found that to be odd, not that Stress Free isn’t popular, but it usually gets packed around 9ish or so, but not this nite.

It was like a Saturady nite up in therre. Eric Robeson was just getting on the 1s and 2s amnd right before him was cover band Boogie Chyld who continued on after Robeson. Anyway, people were getting free Pillsner beer for its pre-launch and giving the party crowd a taste of what the STL team brewed up. Also up in there was Keenan Harris’ Jack Daniels spread and the cleverly placed blackjack table for being to play 21 with play money (Did you win, Jacque? LOL) . I kidded with Keenan and said, “Next time, get some real money and you know you gonna need security for that.” He couldn’t help but to laugh.


Then, I saw some of the colleagues I worked with when I did DIVA Planning’s fashion show in October. I didnt realize it but one of its busy bees Miss Traci (Yes this is going in my blog. LOL) was celebrating her b-day and her team was therre to support including Gina Covington, Miss Michelle, and Tira of DIVA and model Renata and her father Roger.

I also had a couple of people who saw my show, Monologue sand Penisillin gave me their critiques about it. One said that it was bit long, one said that they couldn’t hear what the pimp was saying and that the older man , Mista in the cast had him in tars and he rarely cries at plays. Well, I took all that in stride and made a mental note of what was said for the next go round.

Afterwards Boogie Chyld (PICTURED ABOVE) came back on the makeshift stage and began singing Prince songs. Now, If you are a Prince fan, you know it could be sacreligious to try and cover a Prince song. Well, I must say, Boogie Chyld impressively pulled it off . When they did “Lets Go Crazy” with all of the guitar riffs I was too outdone. They even got into some Time by performing, “The Bird” and the radio jammie jam, “Girl.”I have seen them perform before, but I must say, they get the grade of A for doin some serious Prince and Prince-inspired songs for that night.


I looked at my "pretend" watch and it was goin on 10or so, so I drove over to the Central West End and checked out Hipsters’; free party night at Posh. Right before I was about to walk in the door, I ran into Freeman Bosley Junior Show personality Nicci Roach who was just parking her car walking to the spot. When I saw her , I told her I saw her other half at the Loft (Mr. Kev B) and that everyone should be heading to Posh after the Loft.

When Nicci and I walked up in Posh, it was kind of sparse in the crowd, but it was only 10 so I knew in about an hour the crowd was going to pick up. Meanwhile, Raoch’s colleague Darrion Phelps was sitting at the bar drinking YAC and smoking a cigar (sporting a low cut do these days!) . The there of us ended up talking about their show, the radio biz, and just shooting the ish (I wish I could tell you what all we talked about, but like the CIA, I would have to kill you and myself if I did. LOL)

Around 11 or so, the crowd picked up slightly, not what I expected. I just assumed that people were still getting’ their party on at the Loft and I’m sure around that time,. The regular party people were also up in the mix too so Posh was in competition with that. But overall it was a cool crowd. I even saw Forest Park English professor JK Dennis up in the spot getting his party on with a couple of his crew!

SIDEBAR: I am one of the most coolest, laid-back-fairest brothas anyone would want to meet, but at Posh on that nite, I almost became a street fightin negro up in there. I’ll just put it like this, when this particular person just had to say something foul to me to try and get me to stoop on his level, I played it calm and ignored him cause if I blew up and bring out the East St. Louis out of me, the owner of Posh would have thrown me and this person out of there and the cops I’m sure would have been called for causing a homicide.

And why would this person try to step up to me in a crowd of people instead of one on one? My thing is this, if you come to me foul in the beginning, I’m gonna be foul back. Don’t try and think everything is cool and I suppose to fake nice with you. That’s not how it goes down. I put it like this, I may be cool and nice and all, but I know folks who can do some things to put an end to nonsense. So, I’m just sayin.

On Saturday, I had more auditions for my all-male fashion show/competition, TEST-OS-COUTURE at the Emerson Library at Webster University. I picked a few on the spot and I met with Vashon Coach Anthony Bonner also agree dot be apart of the show. Later on that afternoon, I thought I was going to get my female dance team for audition at Cougar’s on Florissant Road and Natural Bridge, but all I got was a locked door. I don’t know what was up with that? But oh well.

On Sunday, I had my photo shoot with some of the guys of my fashion show TEST-OS-COU-TURE (PICTURED ABOVE) at my office. They were Corey Hayes and Brandon Demps and one guy, John Gearries, the taller of the three, who came from Indianapolis to be apart of the shoot. I am also in a dilemma. I don’t know which photo I should use for the main picture of the poster and for the publicity photo for media. If you could, check them out on OUT 170—PHOTO SHOOT PICZ and email me at
manfashionshow@yahoo.com and give me your opinion on which photo should be used for the main picture of the poster and which one for the publicity shot or both?

FOR PICS OF THE MENTIONED EVENTS GO TO OUT 171



STL-TIDBITZ-St. Louis model Jermaine was featured in last week’s issue of Jet Magazine. Congrats on that….Also congrats to local singer/actress Llysa Rykale who is doin her thing on a local Schnucks commercial . She is the sister with the red sweater on who jumps up and down all excitingly then shows a receipt of her savings…..I will try and get to the demo of STL rapper City Ant next week. I heard some of it and I must say he seems to be the one to bring back consciousness rap lyrics back to hip-hop!.... STL boxer Cory Spinks will be fighting his next fight on May 190 in Memphis at the Fed Ex Forum (I heard that the Scott Trade Center will soon be called the Fed Ex Center. Hmmm) He will fight Jermain Taylor….I heard that a particular popular newspaper owner may be purchasing a building on Delmar to create their own art gallery! Hmmm, interesting….It looks like another hip hop couple has called it quits. A well placed source has confirmed to MediaTakeOut.com that Ashanti and Nelly have separated. According to the insider, the two have been apart for a few weeks now. And Nelly has reportedly already begun dating other people.Ashanti, on the other hand, isn't taking the break up as well. The tipster tells MediaTakeOut.com, "Ashanti is really broken up over losing [Nelly] ... But her friends and family are helping her get through it."

MA’AT-IDBITZ. I found something interesting while thumbing through Delores Shante’s Partyline column in the St. Louis American this week that I had to share with you all. Delores Shante seems to be upset with me “the blogger” and reported in this weeks’ Partyline that I wrote some erroneous stuff about “her’ buddy at the Café Soul event at the Lucas House two weeks ago. She writes:

“I know that this person’s sole intention was to force me into doing this, but okay I’ll bite. Your little publicity stunt paid off…a little. Would a certain “blogger” who I thought was my boy, get some business! I partake in some mental junk food from time to time by reading this person’s “blog.” But when I got up on there last week expecting to hear about one of his all male reviews or how great it was for him to be in V.I.P again, I see he is making a comment about one of my main aces. Since he didn’t say any names, I won’t either. But why did this person accuse my boy of being a lightweight cheat-um-up at Café Soul (which was hot as usual by the way)? Help. Everybody knows that the real golden rule in the streets (besides everything isn’t what it appears) is even if you see something that looks suspect, keep it to yourself. And if you can’t keep it to yourself, whatever you do, don’t put it in writing! After all - you could be wrong

I am assuming Ms. Shante is commenting about this statement I wrote last week:

“Before the show [Café Soul] started. Coco had to set straight about someone who was putting (on)shows called Coco Soul Sundays and using her name without permission and how people should respect people’s identity. WHOA!”

Ms. Shante, if you wanted to get upset with someone, it shouldn’t be me, it should be the one who said it in public on the mike for all of us to hear. All I did was reiterate what they said. If the comment was wrong, then the person who said it got it wrong—all I did was write it. True, there is two sides to a story, and the other side was not there to defend themselves, but I only wrote what I heard. I was not trying to do any publicity stunt or anything like that with the comment. It was just part of the evening’s happenings and found the comment out of the ordinary which made it newsworthy. But if there was any harm, I apologize for that. And for the record—you still my girl.”


CHART-TIDBITZ—Looks like STL rapper Baby Huey is finally making some zoom up the Hot 100, Hip-Hop and rap Charts in this weeks’ Billboard charts. This week his hit, “Pop Lock it and Drop it” zooms up the Hot 100 from #52 to #38 in its 6th week On the Hip-Hop Charts, it moves into the Top 20 from 24 to 19 15th week And on the Rap Tracks chart it moves into the Top 10 from 13 to 10 6th week. Now the bets are on if this single can reach No. 1 on any of these charts? I predict that its a surefire No. 1 on the Rap charts cause its a popular dance that goes with the song. As far as the other charts, I predict that wit will hit the Top 5 on the Hot 100 charts and if it cracks the Top 10 on the Hip Hop Charts, it will either go No. 9 or 10.
