Lupe Lead Singer In British Rock Band
Words: Marisa M.Over the weekend, news broke that rapper Lupe Fiasco was the new frontman of British rock group "Japenese Cartoon." Blogs all over the internet were saying Lupe was taking a new musical direction, but new reports have emerged to debunk these rumors.
On the Myspace page of the group, they explain the lead singer is a guy by the name of Percival Fats, and that Lupe is simply a close friend. He also finances the band, but contributes no vocals whatsoever.
The rumors stemmed from an uncanny similarity in the voices of Lupe and Percival, but Lupe insists he's only concentrating on his last album.
The Real Soulja Boy Robbery Story
Words: Robyn W.It's true when they say, "Mo Money, Mo Problems," as I'm sure Soulja Boy would agree
according to the proven rumors of him and his friends getting robbed in his ATL home at
gunpoint on December 30, 2008. Apparently some armed robbers followed Soulja Boy home
after his album release party, waited for him and his crew to go in the house, kicked the door in
and robbed them.
One rumor stated that the robbers nearly had JBar, SB's friend, as a hostage
while they also stole Soulja Boy's chain and $5000. Soulja Boy stated that it was six robbers,
but the next day on December 31, 2008, a video surfaced on the internet starring two anonymous
dudes in masks and dressed in all black admitting to being the robbers and also setting the record
straight that it was not six people, but only two and confirming that they only had one gun.
Also, in the video, the two men announced there would be another video made with Soulja Boy's
chain in it. The good news is that he and his friends are ok.
Soulja Boy is worth way more $5000
so I'm positive the chain will be replaced ASAP. Culture Shock sends condolences to the whole
Stacks on Deck crew. Oh, and by the way, go cop Soulja Boy's lates album, iSouljaBoyTellEm!
Lil Kim Exposes The Notorious Truth
Words: Marisa M.Rapper Lil' Kim has been unshy about stating her displeasure with her portrayal in the Biggie biopic, NOTORIOUS, and now has released a statement furthering her stance. She feels she should have had a much larger role in the making of the movie, as well as in the movie itself.
"I've had enough and I'm about to expose them both… I've been quiet for a long time." "I'm very disappointed in Faith… There's nothing Faith or Ms. Wallace could do to stop me from reppin' B.I.G. all day. I'm gonna always do that… It's time for Ms. Wallace to be exposed."
No further comments were released, but it appears some will be very soon!
