| Part 2: Hip-Hop Rumors: The Real Reason R. Kelly Fell Out With George ...
Ras Kass is down in Miami recording songs for his new album. Now, here is the rumor – again. I've gotten more details rumors on Ras. I heard that Ras got busted on a parole violation. I heard that technically he is not allowed to leave the state that he's paroled in. Typically, you can leave if you get permission. From what I understand, Ras got busted when he taped the cipher section of the BET Hip Hop Awards. His P.O. got word (or saw the show) on the traveling and violated him. From what I understand, Ras is in for a 6-month violation, but should serve about three. From what I understand, that means he'll be out in about two months.
I believe that to be the truth, but you never know.
SNOOP BODIES THE COMP!
Tell me I am not on the same accord as Snoop! I posted all those old videos from the 70's and then he drops “Sexual Seduction," which looks straight out of the 70's! On the celeb sightings tip, Snoop attended a party thrown by Pharrell of the Neptunes.
Viewers turned off by Hollywood writers strike 'may never switch TV on ...
American TV networks have lost almost a quarter of their audiences because of the Hollywood writers' strike, according to new figures, and executives fear that "orphaned" viewers may never return. The Nielsen ratings organisation found that US viewership for last week's opening of the 2008 TV season was down 21 per cent compared with the same week last year, when new episodes of hit shows such as Desperate Housewives and Grey's Anatomy were aired. Because the strike has shut down production of all scripted shows, the networks are now almost completely out of fresh material to broadcast, instead relying on reality TV franchises such as American Idol. The channel CW - home of Gossip Girl and America's Next Top Model - lost 50 per cent of viewers in the 18 to 49-year-old bracket sampled by Nielsen.
MythBusters: 7 Tech Headaches—and How to Fix Them
Miraculously, the industry appears to be working on a solution to this problem. The Open Mobile Terminal Platform (omtp.org) is supported by a number of manufacturers that would like to see the micro USB become the standard connector. It's too early to know if they will succeed; let's hope they do. AV equipment that has different types of hookups and remote-control protocols. These things drain too much brainpower and time. For instance, HDMI is considered the standard cable hookup for hi-def equipment, but it isn't fully compatible with other AV protocols, such as DVI, component or, for that matter, coaxial cable. As for remote controls, there are standard “remote codes" but the system is horrible and unnecessarily confusing. Changing it might lead to a system that doesn't accommodate older remotes.
Scareware scammers target Mac users
Scareware scammers are trying to hoodwink Mac users into buying ineffective security software. MacSweeper is the first rogue cleaning tool for Macs, net security firm F-Secure reports. MacSweeper claims to clean evidence of surfing for porn and other potentially embarrassing material from Macs. The tool turns up items to be cleaned whether or not there's any offending material. Users are prompted to buy the package to clean their machines. .
Dawg! Idol is back!
And no, I'm not talking about anything political. I'm talking about "American Idol." Fox TV's unstoppable gawk-fest of a show has been by far the No. 1-rated series on U.S. television for its past three seasons, despite the almost inarguable fact that -- after its previous three seasons -- it became as repetitious and predictable as an episode of "Three's Company" (coincidentally or not, the top show of 1979). Those of us who hate or are just plain bored to death with "Idol" always think/hope/pray that this season will finally be the one where it tanks. But it never happens. Our wishes are even more of a pipe dream this year, since the current Hollywood writers' strike is accomplishing what "Idol" set out to do: abolishing all shows of substance from U.S. television.
Hip-Hop Rumors: Soulja Boy Disses GZA, Jay, Ye? Lil' Scrappy's New ...
Hip-Hop hasn't been too kind to Lil' Scrappy in the last couple of years. Well, that's got nothing to do with the ladies. I thought Scrappy Doo and Diamond were rock solid, but it would appear that they aren't! Now, we know appearances can be deceiving, but let me explain. AllHipHop.com just got a new columnist, a an actress who is talking about being a fledgling actress. Her name is Noree Victoria. She is very pretty too. Here is her cute pic.
So, from what I understand (and am late on) is that Scrappy's Baby Momma got into a fight with Diamond. After that, Scrappy ended it with Diamond, who used to rap with Crime Mob. Now, you can't write/read a rumor about the girl and not read her column.
