Bow In The Presence of Greatness


More Ovaltine please!

After the buffoonery that was in the last post we've gotta put C+D back in its natural rhythm. What better way to do that than with a dab of zest?

More flicks coming soon. I know you want the whole beehive but you're just going to have to be satisfied with this taste of honey.

Heaven I Need A Hug

What happens when you take beautiful words of wisdom ["I got a dollar, I got a dollar, I got a dollar, hey hey hey hey"] from 'The Little Rascals' original goon Buckwheat and put them over a Meerkat Da Don track? You get a future skrip club anthem, duh!



And before you ask, there is some good ol' fashion shuckin' and jivin' designed just for this song. As much as it pains me to say this, YT can't crank that Bynum forever.

Here's One Rapper That Won't Be Appearing On Bill Cosby's Highly Anticipated Debut Rap Album


The last time Fat Joe did anything remotely interesting to me was way when he and Big Pun teamed up together for "Deep Cover (Twins)." Oh, and then there was that time on MTV's Spring Break when he showed his ass crack while performing "What's Love." That's about it.

However, Joey CRACK CRACK CRACK CRACK!'s recent comments to Complex magazine* regarding the n-word has been raising some eyebrows.

C: As a Puerto Rican rapper, have you ever been criticized for using the N Word?

FJ: No absolutely not. Because blacks and Latinos anywhere you go in any hood, any ghetto, we’re right beside each other, and with each other all the time especially in New York City. They’ve been calling me “that nigga” my whole life. I go to Africa, and the Africans say “what’s up Fat Joe my nigga-ah?” So they don’t have a problem with it. It’s a term of endearment.

C: What about your response to people who don’t think like you or someone like Khaled who’s a Palestinian-American should be using the word?

FJ: I guess Khaled is a sand-nigga. He’s a sand-nigga. (Laughs) Khaled that nigga, did you ask the 36 black rappers that are on his album with him if they have a problem with it?

* I've been rockin' with ya'll since day one but why are my issues always 15 light years late? I'm starting to believe that I would be better off going to the gas station and just reading different articles every time that I come in.

I'm Just Saying . . .



I didn't watch the Access Granted on this joint so my question is genuine for once. Is this shit supposed to look like the Britney Houston version of both "Scream" and "No Scrubs" rolled up into one? Whatever the case may be I'm happy for Lil' Mama. The chick finally got a budget to work with.


Read A Book

Seriously, is complete and total fuckery the reoccurring theme on this blog today?

The Mistress of Miami can now add author to her resume, which already includes recording artists and habitual shoplifter. Only in America!

I can picture it now, Jacki-O hanging in my child's school library on one of those read posters a couple years from now. Khia, step your advice column game up.


Scheduled to hit stores on February 15, the project will be the first release from C-Murder’s recently launched TRU Publishing. The book tells the story of six friends, Monique, Tatiana, Inch, Malcolm, Quentin and Iz, who support each other through trying times on the streets and in their personal lives. Grown & Gangsta is currently available for pre-order through Amazon.com and trupublishing.com. [source]


Excerpt and throwback flick from the C+D vault under the cut.





“The pop pop pop of the paparazzi’s cameras lit up the night like diamonds made of light. Each flash was like a bling. Many celebrities, athletes and popular rappers had come out to P-Nice’s Hampton mansion. P-Nice owned the hottest rap label in the game, Street Life Records, as well as the trendy clothing label Pierre Wear. To be invited to his Fourth of July party meant you were somebody in the industry or in the streets. Monique was of the former. She was the A & R rep. from the up and coming Harlem World Records and had been responsible for the signing of one of the best new singers in the game, Joi Black, and a rapper out of Jersey named Lucky Malone. Monique wasn’t a heavy weight by a long shot, neither was she raking in the dough, but her name was ringing bells and with the contacts she was making, she had her eyes on her own label."

It's Going To Be A Hot Summer




Bad news, rap dudes. Rumor has it that America's favorite dad is set to release a hip hop album, tentatively titled State of Emergency.

Sources told AllHipHop.com that the actor, comedian and philanthropist will address issues like proper parenting, teen pregnancy, drug abuse, Black-on-Black crime and the dropout rate in America's high schools... Cosby's album will not contain any profane language, nor will it offer any denigrating comments towards women.

He should be good as long as he has a track with Lil' Wayne, R. Kelly, Akon, or T-Pain and some hot production, right? I just want to hear him in the booth on Rap City spitting a hot 16. Pre-written of course.


Wanna Be Starting Somethin'




Is Frankie going to have to remove her dentures and grab the vaseline for these broads?

Danity Kane recently spoke to Hot 97's Miss Jones about KeyLoLo's singing ability [or lack thereof] and the singer dissing the girls on several different occasions in the past.


Diddy may want to hire extra security for his little songbirds. Frankie, Neffe, and this momofucka are not only locked and loaded but probably very familiar with the penale system. I'm sure it would be nothing for them to catch a case over bodying one of those broads.

Prince Akeem, Come And Get Your Jump-Off

A woman accused of leaving eight children with little food and no money while she traveled to Africa to marry a man she met on the Internet has been arrested.

Shanell Monique Mosley, 33, was met by authorities as she got off an Air France jet Monday at George Bush Intercontinental Airport, Harris County sheriff's spokesman Sgt. David Crain said Tuesday, January 29, 2008.

Charged with child endangerment and child abandonment for leaving the children in squalid conditions, Mosley was expected to have an attorney appointed for her at a Wednesday court appearance.

After the children were discovered alone in the home in early January, officials learned Mosley went to Nigeria to marry an Internet acquaintance.

When she left for Nigeria on December 31, Mosley told her 15 year-old daughter she would return in a month, child welfare officials said.

Prosecutor John Jordan said Mosley's six children, now in foster homes, were starving and her older children couldn't recall their own birth dates.

Mosley's children are ages 1, 7, 8, 9, 15 and 16, Jordan said. The other two children found in the home were 3 and 4 year-olds the family cared for on behalf of a single father who worked, Jordan said. [SOURCE]

The above video from Alexyss K. Tylor apparently is a response to a "Laffy Taffy Hoe" on LipStickAlley that has been running off at the mouth about her sexual preference. I am completely out of the loop on all of this drama but I did find the clip funny for other reasons [two words: pussy chronicles].

I decided to post this picture of Plies [or just plain old Algernod if you rock with him like that] at the 1st Annual Ozone Awards wearing his pants below his waist because I feel his daily pain. His "pistol heavy," ya'll. Sympathize before you criticize!

I kid, I kid.

As reported last week, the Ying Yang Twins were invited to appear on Dr. Phil to discuss the controversial topic of whether government should regulate the way people wear their clothes and hip hop artists accepting responsibility for the effect of their music and lyrics on the hip hop culture. Check out the recap at the good doctor's website. Quotable fuckery under the jump.




"I really do dislike people who have their drawers all showing," D-Roc says. "I wear too-big pants, but having it off my behind? No. My mama raised me right. I wear my pants above my waist. Kaine is like total opposite of me on the topic."

"I wear the baggy pants," Kaine says. "If I choose to show my boxers a little bit, so what? I'm grown. You can wear your clothes like you want to wear them."

That wasn't his only plate on that faithful night in '07.

The sexy beast that is Rick Ross appeared on MTV's 'Cribs' last night and I was nervous for his safety the entire time! It was the first time I have ever heard him talk for more than 30 seconds, and it wasn't pretty. I thought he was going to have a sudden heart attack.

Click here for video from the Tittay Gravy King's birthday party and restaurant. Thatott.com also has flicks from the party.

While we are on the subject of MIA, I was ghost earlier this morning because I stayed up watching illegal movies on the internet all night and didn't fall asleep until like 9 AM. You can put the blame on me.

Our girl Kizzy is still across the pond in London, appearing at the the Instyle Best Beauty Buys Awards on Tuesday. No hate here today! As you can clearly see, taking a vacay from the wig crypt does a girl wonders. Baby Daniel may be pulling a double shift for the remainder of the week but hey, that's the breaks. In related news, Sam from That Grape Juice conducted a great interview with Ms. Kelly.

Something To Think About


I think blind items are ridiculous for the most part but this particular one from the NY Daily News Gatecrasher caught my attention.

Which reality-show clogged network had to change its casting procedures after a racist internal policy was leaked? Producers had an informal ban on considering cast members who were "too black." They claimed it was because darker skin tones were hard to pick up on camera.

Freakin' Idiot


Via Jezebel:
On The View this morning, Sherri Shepherd recounted her close call of almost missing the cutoff for registering to vote via absentee ballot for the election in November. (Shepherd resides in New York, but is a California resident.) And apparently this is the first time that Sherri will be voting...ever! Having turned 18 in 1985, the now-41-year-old has missed out on the past five presidential elections because she "never knew the dates or anything." She said it was important to vote in this one, though, because otherwise, she wouldn't have a right to complain on The View about whomever is elected for an entire year. (She probably meant to say "four years.")


I concur.

I was checking in with The Life Files this morning and as usual they had some juicy gossip. According to radio personality Miss Jones, Fantasia has issued a sing off challenge to Keyshia Cole. If this was to ever go down you know what the crowd would be in store for: screaming, hollering, sweaty snatches, Neffe firing off her 40 cal., raw emotion, and ghetto yodeling.

I don't know about you but I would pay good money [read: fork over a food stamp voucher] to watch.

I'm just saying, it would be even more interesting if Young Dro and Young Jeezy got involved, youngin'. Somebody call up Don King.

Quick Quotes


"I had had three hours sleep two hours in a row, and it was hot and I had to sit there for four hours. The truth is, even when I was younger, I would've had a hard time going two nights on three hours of sleep both nights, and sitting in a hot church for four hours. I woke up when Shirley Franklin popped me and I thought I gave a good talk there."

Don't Do It Girls


Yeah yeah, I know you are tired of hearing about Donkey but I just had to post these pictures [via Gossip 101] as a service to the general population. There's a wild one on the loose! I don't know why he is trying to front; son know he lives by the "any where that dick ain't running free ain't for me" creed.

Speaking of Johnny's snuggle buddy, word is that he and Mel B only got down three times during their relationship.

In an exclusive interview with the News of the World the insider told us: "Mel might have been in love with Eddie but he was certainly NOT in love with her.


"Mel did NOT live at his house although she told people she did.

"And it wasn't a passionate relationship. They slept together just three times.



"That's why he was stunned when she announced she was pregnant after they split. He truly did not believe it was his child. As they only had sex a few times, and she'd PROMISED she had a contraceptive coil fitted, Eddie was certain it couldn't be his."

The insider then revealed that since DNA tests proved Eddie DID father the baby, nine-month-old Angel, he is now convinced wild 32-year-old Mel had wanted a baby with him all along.

Our source said: "Right from the moment she was introduced to Eddie she was infatuated and started to tell her friends she was going to marry him.

"It was clear Mel was desperate to be like Posh Spice and wanted a high profile catch like David Beckham.

"She wanted the fame and the fortune and more than anything she wanted a wealthy, A-list husband.

"Getting involved with Mel was the worst mistake Eddie ever made and he'll regret it for the rest of his life. [source]
