WTF!? Sean Levert, brother of Gerald Levert, son of O’Jay alum Eddie Levert collapsed in the Cuyahoga County Jail while serving time for failing to pay child support. Sean, 39 was rushed to the hospital and died from unknown causes. In November 2006 Levert passed away at 40 from a concoction of prescription meds and over-the-counter drugs. Best known as a member of the super group Levert, Sean also made appearances in movies like New Jack City. Damn, say a prayer for Eddie. Story still developing…

Although conceptually driven footwear has hit a low point over the last year, the New Balance A14 576 exemplifies the solid workings of what concepts can do for a sneaker. The 576 references an unlikely source of inspiration in coffee beans to create the colorway. The upper is comprised of hemp and cork with a printed insole and painted ‘N’ logo. Slated for a release in August of 2008.

Cops Confiscate Tons Of Coke In Peru, PR, Venezuela

cokebig.jpg

As of lately alot of attention has been paid to the increased production of heroin in Afghanistan (post Taliban), the world’s leading supplier of dope but with these recent busts in South America it is clear that coke output isn’t slowing up anytime soon. Authorities in Peru seized 1.5 tons of cocaine (peruvian raw?) from a small international cartel who were reportedly “armed for war” at the time of their apprehension.

They were in possession of $11,000, jewelry, two motorcycles, two vehicles, telephones, radios and equipment to package the work. No details on the weapons was made available. In the middle of the month (3/15) Venezuelan police discoverd 2.9 metric tons (3.2 tons) of coke in a shed. They were in pursuit of one suspect at presstime.

A few days prior, in Puerto Rico US authorities (US Coast Guard) seized 456 kilos (1,005 lbs) of coke packed in 17 suitcases on a boat off the eastern shore of the island. In the Carribean territories alone, authorities have claimed to have seized upwards to 1,600 kilos (3,527 lbs) of coke estimated at $54.5million since October of 2007. With this amount just getting caught in the strainer imagine how much yayo must be on the streets undetected?

Did you hear about the CIA plane that crashed with 3 tons of coke on it…coming from Colombia?

Wrestlemania proved this Sunday “to be the greatest show on earth”. With a jam packed four hour program that featured the likes of Snoop Dogg, John Legend, Raven Symone and many others the WWE broke attendance records and pay-per -view viewers.

With all the bells and whistles Vince could of possibly imagined, the main event was Floyd Mayweather vs. The Big Show.

ORLANDO, Fla. – At WrestleMania XXIV, Floyd Mayweather put his “money” where his mouth was, running his professional record to 40-0 with a shocking knockout of the 7-foot, 441-pound Big Show.

While he may not have come through on his promise to break the mammoth’s jaw, he did, in fact, shock the Citrus Bowl-record crowd of 74,635 WWE fans and millions more watching around the world on pay-per-view by felling Big Show like a giant redwood. The victory, however, didn’t come without a bit of chicanery

Cell Phones=Brain Cancer?

skeleton.jpg

With the explosion of cell phones in the last decade, this new report linking cell phones to brain cancers and tumors can’t be welcoming news to customers. Researchers are going to the extreme and claiming the threat of cell phones use is more severe than smoking and asbestos because it’s over 3 billion people who are subjecting themselves to harmful levels of radiation, the ramifications of which will be unknown for roughly a decade. So they are estimating that the dilemma will be so wide spread that it will dwarf the horrendous number of people who succumb to smoke related cancer and asbestos exposure. (In other words EVERYONE is subject). Preliminary tests have shown the end results will point towards an alarming rise of deadly brain tumors, especially in children.

The study, by Dr Vini Khurana, is the most devastating indictment yet published of the health risks.

It draws on growing evidence – exclusively reported in the IoS in October – that using handsets for 10 years or more can double the risk of brain cancer. Cancers take at least a decade to develop, invalidating official safety assurances based on earlier studies which included few, if any, people who had used the phones for that long. Earlier this year, the French government warned against the use of mobile phones, especially by children. Germany also advises its people to minimise handset use, and the European Environment Agency has called for exposures to be reduced.

Social Networking Is The Wave Of The Future…Take Note

social-networks.jpg

Reuters ran a thorough expose on the social networking phenom, citing the inclusion of superstars like 50 Cent who have created their own networks via Ning. Even though artists maintain healthy followings via Myspace and Facebook, they don’t have access to the most vital aspect of their following, the fans email. With sensitive data like email and demographics, a social networking site can then be monetized by commercializing access to advertisers.

Identified as “next-generation” fan and web sites, social networks are becoming hubs where artists can not only have an intimate connection with their fanbase but they can also directly market to them, effectively excluding the middleman. Now portals such as Facebook and Myspace are looked at as “funnels” which help strengthen the membership on personalized social networks, like the Ning supported Thisis50.
Gina Bianchini, CEO of Ning summed it up best when she said, “They take and use services where they don’t know the users, don’t have access and don’t have full control, and funnel those fans to something they do control.”

Ludacris, the Pussycat Dolls and Ice Cube are cited as artist that have jumped on the bandwagon early and cemented their spots in the blossoming social network field. Ice Cube’s venture, UVNTV is a slightly different service, that allows its members to host their own TV channel. That service, which includes Snoop and Cube amongst its content providers, will be up and running by January 2009.

Straight-To-DVD Is the New Hustle In Town

blockbuster.jpg

Note to all the aspiring rappers turned actors, there is a lane for you! Hollywood’s burgeoning Straight-To- DVD market is being recognized and no longer criticized as an underclass but rather a necessary evil. With the success of Black Hollywood’s highest grossing films (Tyler Perry), a secondary class has sprung up in its wake, a class that mimmicks the exploits of Blaxploitation flicks from the 70’s. This system is dominated by former A-listers like Wesley Snipes who routinely turns out Straight-To-DVD’s.

The studios openly acknowledge that they know once a theatrical release targeted to black audiences hit the DVD market it makes a healthy amount of cash, so to cut their costs they opt to go Straight-To-DVD. Blockbuster has become the preferred “theater near you” when it comes to Black cinema. Like the overcrowded “Chic-Lit” market, an astonishing number of Straight-To-DVD’s movies are being produced, indicating that there is a market for this cookie cutter product.

The themes are generally the same, as are some of the actors but it remains to be seen whether their will be a break in the monotony. In the meantime, next time you’re down at the local Blockbuster or online checking out Netflix, remember to snatch up one of those S-DVD’s, you may be creating the next job for your favorite rapper turned B-actor.

Muslims Outnumber Catholics In World

muslim_world1.jpg

The Vatican has bad news for its flock around the globe; they are no longer the religious majority in the world. Muslims are. Even though they haven’t released hard figures yet the Vatican has confirmed that 19.2% of the planet pay homage to Allah, while only 17.4 % pledge their allegiance to the Pope. “For the first time in history we are no longer at the top: the Muslims have overtaken us,” Monsignor Vittorio Formenti told Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano.

The Census was according to figures compiled several years ago. It has been estimated that Catholics number 1.13 billion people throughout the world while it is believed that Muslims were topping in at 1.3 billion. Those numbers are no longer reflective of the reality but hard numbers are not being released.

If all Christians were counted under one banner, the Orthodox, Anglican, Catholic and Protestants then the numbers would swell to 2 billion people on Earth (33%) who call Christ their Savior. While it is noted that Muslims are believed to be outpacing Catholics due to higher birth rates it is also worth noting that Muslim conversion spiked after 9/11 and the War On Terror was implemented. Bush’s Crusade against Islam backfired and resulted in him boosting global membership instead.

Katrina Victims Have to Pay Back Grants

katrina_ruins.jpg
The Katrina debacle continues to torment the hurricane survivors and stain the tarnished legacy of the Bush administration. It seems that homeowners given grants are being told that they were given too much and have to repay the overages.

The bid invitation said: “The average amount to be collected is estimated to be approximately $35,000 but in some cases may be as high as $100,000 to $150,000.”

katrina_ruins-2-copy.jpg

This is totally outrageous due to the fact that it took the government way too long to get aid to these people and now they are adding insult to injury with trying to recoup money from these families who are still not back to normalcy. Tragic indeed.

Lebron To Peddle Vitamin Water

vitaminwaterlebron.jpg
Well, OK. This is how we should be seeing Lebron off the court. This is a still of the Vitamin Water ad that will feature Lebron, airing during the NBA 2008 Playoffs. Usually the “Obey Your Thirst” athlete can be found pitching Sprite, but following in the footsteps of Shaq and Curtis, Bron Bron is demanding that you obey your thirst and get you some Vitamin Water. Since they have him playing a lawyer I want to hear him do the “You can’t handle the truth” line, that should be classic!

They Even Bloggin In the Pen!

The rise of the blog serves many purposes but one of its unanimous strengths is its ability to give a voice to the voiceless. I got wind of this blog while surfing the net and I thought I’d pass it on for those who want an honest account of what is going on behind the walls of America’s penitentiaries. Episodes of Oz, The Wire or Prison Break should be as close as we get to the pen in the future, but in the meantime lets not forget they got two million brown bodies behind those walls.

Men Birth Control Pills ?

bc-pill.jpg

Men are on the verge of getting an extra option when it comes to contraceptives. In addition to condoms and vasectomies scientists have said they’ve broken through and created the first male birth control pill. Yeah, you heard right, the “morning after” pill for dudes is on its way to market. “We used to talk about men ‘sharing the burden’ of contraception. But these days, many men talk about wanting ‘control.’ Men want to control their own destinies,” says Elaine Lissner, director of Male Contraception Information Project. The key ingredient is a synthetic hormone called Progestin, which ceases ovulation in women and decreases the rate of sperm production in men. Pending approval from the various medical clearinghouses this product can be seeing its way to pharmacy selves in three years. CLICK HERE for more info.

Pop superstar Madonna has again changed the game with her upcoming promotion and marketing for her latest album Hard Candy due to released next month. With a new single with Justin Timberlake gaining traction, she has leveraged her power to cut deals with advertisers who will align her songs in commercials for their products.

In addition to getting fat checks from major corporations she is also getting the a ton of free promotion which will sustain her music in the minds of consumers. Great marketing moves that artists from all genres should take a look at. (wonder if Big Daddy Kane will make an appearance)

“These companies want their customers to know about their links with Madonna. They are going to promote the deals and her music online and in extensive television, radio and press adverts.”

More Rap News : Beanie Sigel Back in Jail

beanie-sigel.jpg

Culminating what has been a horrendous week for the hip hop community with various cases of false accusations, shootings, and convictions, Philly rapper Beanie Sigel has been thrown back in jail by the judge for failing to adhere to his strict parole guidelines.

Still cant believe that Jay Z is letting an above average, borderline legendary MC like Beanie suffer after he repeatedly stuck up for Jay when every rapper and his momma was attacking him and his credibilty. Sigel deserves better.

Authorities said Sigel, whose real name is Dwight Grant, gave a false urine sample to probation officials on Feb. 29 and also tested positive five times earlier this month for controlled substances, including Xanax and Percocet.

Guess like Lil Wayne he can’t put down that Purple Rain, shame.

In a bizarre case out of Dallas, it seems a 12 year old runaway was stripping for two weeks and the club where she danced nude has remained open despite being busted by authorities.

The sixth-grader danced at Diamonds Cabaret over a two-week period late last year, authorities say. They also say they found a 17-year-old girl working in the club in January.

“I think they just didn’t care,” her mother said. “She’s 12, but she’s got the body of a 20-year-old. All they were thinking about was the money she could bring in.”

States Fight Real ID Program

national-id.jpg

If you happen to be in possession of a license from Maine or South Carolina due to the state government arguing with the federal government, ID’s from these states will not be recognized at federal ports, like airports and buildings after May 11. These two are not in compliance with the federal governments request that all of the states approve the Real ID program. There are several states that asked for extensions but Maine and S.C. haven’t made their request. The Real ID will be a national identification program that is scheduled to be implemented by Jan. 1, 2010. After this date residents of these two states will have to present additional ID, preferably a passport to travel abroad. To read more of this story about the Real ID program CLICK HERE

Rice Chimes In On Racism

ricebush.jpg

Now that Barack has aired out America’s dirty secret and publicly stated that “Racism” is still a thriving institution in this country, other people has willfully crossed the bridge and began to pitch rocks of their own. Condeleezza Rice, not wanting to be left out of the burgeoning discussion on race has went on record speaking about what she describes as a “birth defect.” She explains that “blacks” haven’t benefited from the fruits of their labor because they were inherently deprieved as a result of free labor aka slavery. “Black Americans were a founding population,” she said. “Africans and Europeans came here and founded this country together — Europeans by choice and Africans in chains. That’s not a very pretty reality of our founding.” In this interview with Washington Post reporters Rice also said, “descendants of slaves did not get much of a head start, and I think you continue to see some of the effects of that…That particular birth defect makes it hard for us to confront it, hard for us to talk about it, and hard for us to realize that it has continuing relevance for who we are today,” she said.

Henchman Calls For Philips Head

henchman.jpg

The chips are starting to fall all over the place now that the LA Times has retracted their damaging story tying Diddy & Jimmy Henchman to the ambush that resulted in Tupac getting shot at Manhattan’s Quad Studio. Even though Chuck Philips has issued an apology Jimmy Henchman is calling for his head and Diddy is considering suing the Times. Check out the excerpt from an interview conducted with MTV’s Sway where Henchman lays his case out:

“I lived with the rumor of what happened to Tupac for the last 14 years,” Rosemond said Thursday afternoon. “And rumors are rumors — either you believe them or you don’t — but when you have a reputable newspaper like the Los Angeles Times with a Pulitzer Prize winner like Chuck Philips to validate a rumor, then it becomes real. It becomes real in your life, real to the people around you. When you Google me, this affects me regardless, forever. I could always rebut a rumor, but this is something that’s well more damaging. And I think Chuck Philips had no regards to my reputation, for myself as a businessman, myself as a father, a family man, somebody’s son. And I think he did irreparable damage to my career, my reputation and everything else. I don’t think there is no other reward for me or my family that he can do. An apology isn’t going to do it. There has to be some form of reprimand in the sense of his job. He needs to lose his job.”

Yes, we were scheduled to be married on a yacht April 27th.

Pat Buchanan’s Racist Rant Against Blacks & Obama

buchanan.jpg

Boy the truth must really hurt. Now that Obama has sprayed the Black Flag and aired out America’s dirty little secret, critters are popping up all over the place voicing their displeasure with being called out. I saw this over at Davey D’s blog and as he noted this is the same Pat Buchanan who is employed by numerous news outlets when he clearly has a biased opinion about the reality of a viable “black” candidate on the path to victory. The kitchen sink, kitchenette, cabinets and fridge have now officially been hurled at Mr. Obama. What will they think of next…

Brief for Whitey
by Pat Buchanan

How would he pull it off? I wondered.

How would Barack explain to his press groupies why he sat silent in a pew for 20 years as the Rev. Jeremiah Wright delivered racist rants against white America for our maligning of Fidel and Gadhafi, and inventing AIDS to infect and kill black people?

How would he justify not walking out as Wright spewed his venom about “the U.S. of K.K.K.
America,” and howled, “God damn America!”

My hunch was right. Barack would turn the tables.
