I can't help but to mad that Jay-Z is rocking that nappy ass haircut in this video and what looks to be a tight ass leather jacket. I hope this video turns out to be a lot better than it looks. Props to Jay though for that Roc Nation situation. Let's see how the independent engine moves.

Micheal Jackson Pronounced Dead

Today is a very sad day in American history and even pop culture. The king of Pop Michael Jackson has died from cardiac arrest. While the frenzy on Twitter and other sources were premeditated and claimed that MJ was dead when he was still on his deathbed, I decided to put up the official post about the Legend dying as soon as heard it announced on the news. Some people still don't be believe it and it's real sad. Here is the story from TMZ

"
Michael suffered a cardiac arrest earlier this afternoon at his Holmby Hills home and paramedics were unable to revive him. We're told when paramedics arrived Jackson had no pulse and they never got a pulse back.

A source tells us Jackson was dead when paramedics arrived. A cardiologist at UCLA tells TMZ Jackson died of cardiac arrest.

Once at the hospital, the staff tried to resuscitate him but he was completely unresponsive.

We're told one of the staff members at Jackson's home called 911.

La Toya ran in the hospital sobbing after Jackson was pronounced dead.

Michael is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince "Blanket" Michael Jackson II."

Update on the Perez Hilton and Will I Am beef

This is probably the biggest beef that popped that has yet to pop off in Pop culture. Two super Pop icons are beefing and I wonder why. Could it be that Will I Am and Perez had something going on in the past and now Perez is sour about it??? Hmmmm could be very true and also very gay.

Chris Breezy catches Felony Charge

Looks like Chris Brown finally pleaded guilty and got his sentence which was no jail time and 5 years probation. Read below...


Lawyers representing R&B singer Chris Brown announced a last-minute plea deal yesterday, forestalling the expected testimony of his former girlfriend, pop star Rihanna. Brown pleaded guilty to one count of felony assault, avoiding a prison sentence. Instead, Brown will serve up to five years of supervised probation and six months of community labor.

Brown stated his plea in a Los Angeles court, with Rihanna also present in the room. Judge Patricia M Schnegg imposed a stay-away order on the pair so that they remain at least 50 yards from each other. That distance is reduced to just 10 yards at industry events, but Schnegg warned Rihanna that she would be in violation of the order if she approached her former assailant.

Pushing Digital Album Sales on Twitter

I bumped into a very interesting article about people utilizing Twitter to bring awareness to album releases. This may not seem like a secret to you, but Twitter can be utilizes immensely if done correctly. Check out this article from Techcrunch...

On a panel at the 140 Characters Conference yesterday, Xavier Jernigan (@xjernigan, the director of digital marketing at Universal Motown Republic, described how Twitter help put one of his new artists, Asher Roth (@asherroth), on the map. Roth released his first album, Asleep In the Bread Aisle, on iTunes on April 20, a Monday. The night before he Tweeted out to his followers (he currently has 69,566) that the album would be on iTunes. And then he Tweeted out a short link which opened up to the album page in iTunes. With no other marketing, the album rose to become the No. 1 digital album for the week. Since then, it has sold about 100,000 copies. Update: As people point out in comments, Roth’s own team did a lot of groundwork before the album hit. Nevertheless, Twitter did play an important role in turning that early interest into iTunes sales. Read more

Jury rules against Minn. woman in download case

For all you people downloading illegal music on the net..... you better watch out because the streets are watching!

MINNEAPOLIS – A replay of the nation's only file-sharing case to go to trial has ended with the same result — a Minnesota woman was found to have violated music copyrights and must pay huge damages to the recording industry.

A federal jury ruled Thursday that Jammie Thomas-Rasset willfully violated the copyrights on 24 songs, and awarded recording companies $1.92 million, or $80,000 per song.

Thomas-Rasset's second trial actually turned out worse for her. When a different federal jury heard her case in 2007, it hit Thomas-Rasset with a $222,000 judgment.

The new trial was ordered after the judge in the case decided he had erred in giving jury instructions.

Thomas-Rasset sat glumly with her chin in hand as she heard the jury's finding of willful infringement, which increased the potential penalty. She raised her eyebrows in surprise when the jury's penalty of $80,000 per song was read.

Mariah Carey Fires Back at Eminem

This is actually funny when a grown woman like M.C. is actually going back at Eminem for that track Eminem has on his album "Bagpipes from Baghdad" which is a song that Eminem says some pretty harsh shyt about Mariah. Unfortunately this song is super wack, and I did realize I heard Dream's voice in the beginning, which means he probably wrote it. He could have came stronger.

Listen to track

Tru Life ft. Keri Hilson "I Don't Need Love"

I can;t say I'm a big fan of this track, but I do respect Tru Life's gangsta and how he ran up on Mobb Deep and had them both stripped at gunpoint.

Listen to the track that's being played in the background.

Kelis and Nas Divorce Gets Super Ugly

I saw his shyt and I almost shed a tear for Nas..


TMZ has discovered that Kelis has filed court papers claiming she's dead broke and Nas won't give her a red cent:

"Kelis is asking the judge to order Nas to pay spousal support, child support, all pregnancy-related expenses, and one-half of all medical expenses after the child is born. She also wants $3,500 for the baby nurse after the child's birth, and $20,000 for strollers, cribs and other baby supplies.

Kelis says, 'My survival is based on [Nas'] will at this time. If he does not want to pay for an expense, it does not get paid.' The couple was married in 2003. The baby is due this month.

Kelis says she's entitled to maintain the lifestyle to which she became accustomed during their marriage -- they have five homes, fly first class, go to fancy restaurants, and on and on. Most interesting -- 'There were many expensive pieces [of jewelry] such as a princess-cut diamond tennis bracelet that was recently appraised for $190,000. My engagement ring is an approximately nine-carat cushion-cut diamond solitaire. I have numerous watches...such as Cartier, Rolex, Frank Muller and Chopard."

T.I. "Remember Me" Ft Mary J Blige.

I like this intro right here, and just like you... I wonder if this was really shot after he got locked up. Big up to T.I. and good look at droppin a fire album before you went in..

Want To Fly in Your Home??

Looking to get as high as a Pelican without some weed? Well try the Ultra-HD Military F-16 Flight Simulator

From Gizmodo

his is the HD World, an amazing ultra-high definition military F-16 simulator that runs on 120 Intel Dual Core PCs with $400 graphic cards inside a special industrial casing. Looking at this video, I want one in my living room.

L-3 Link says that their simulator gives you 20-40 visual acuity—current sims do 20-80—which it is almost close enough to fool the eye. 20-20 is perfect visual acuity, but it's still not possible with current projector technology.

The simulator runs on their Simusphere—a 180-degree of field display that uses nine projectors combined—and 120 networked Intel Dual Core PCs with stock, top of the line graphic cards. Not as large as the Mersive 360-degree combat simulator but much more accurate and visually impressive.

Bow Wow Proved Once Again That He Is A Lame

According to Bow Wow's twitter, after Kim Kardashian and Ciara surfaced on the net Bow had this to say....

"Fellas, don’t you feel like a G when ya ex and another girl u banged or f*cked around with r now friends? boosts my ego up! like daaaayum ima pimp

wat makes it funny i don't think she knows! ha! im laughn lol"

What got me tight right now, is the fact that Bow Wow is claiming that he got down with Kim Kardashian and if that;s true then someone needs to give me the limelight right now, cause anything is possible. When I read his comment I just thought that he is on some super sucker shyt for saying that nonsense and just confirms why I think he's a little herb. I think he truly is in the Peter Pan syndrome, the homie will never grow up.

Lil Wayne Impregnants Lauren London and Nivea?

You know we don't like to post any rumors on TIA but since my un-named very reliable source has confirmed that Lil Wayne has impregnated Lauren London and Nivea I had to put this up. I truly feel that both of these chicks are super sexy in their own way and I can;t be mad at him for bagging them but the real question is.... what;s wrong with these chicks? Why would they let a dude like Lil Wayne bust off shots in them? This is a dude who probably sleeps with a different chick every night with no plans of stopping that, so what's the point? I guess chicks are always going to be blinded by the limelight huh? More to come from this story folks....

Max B Found Guiltyof 9 out of 11 counts of Attempted Murder

Damn just when I was starting to get used to his music, the homie is about to do some serious time.

This taken from thisis50.com

According to the authorities, Max's ex, Gina Conway, was recruited by Max in 2006 to rob two men in a Fort Lee, NJ, Holiday Inn. Max then recruited cohort, Kelvin Leerdam, to assist Conway in the robbery of the men, who were known for driving " flashy cars" and carrying "a lot of cash."

On Sept. 22, Leerdam and Conway ambushed the victims in their room, restraining Allan "Jay" Plowden with duct tape, while awaiting the return of his partner, David Taylor, who was alleged to have $30,000 in his possession. When Taylor arrived, he was immediately shot in the head, execution-style.

To the homie Nasir, I don't know the story holmes but trust me I can relate!

Lil Wayne's Rebirth Pushed back While Freeway Signs to Cash Money

Unfortunate news for Weezy (Not That He Cares) his anticipated Rock album has been pushed back for the third time to later summer. Maybe that's because the labels have no faith in the project?

But in other news, Freeway has just confirmed to sources that he is now signed to Cash Money which I think is a great look. The question is... if Jay or 50 were not able to do anything with him, then what makes him feel Cash Money is going to do him justice. Anyways Freeway has always been on of the most prolific artists in the game so I wish him the best!

On another note, Mashonda is looking real good these days.

Right after his performance at the MTV Movie awards.. Eminem gets a little surprise that lit his life up. So much that he got pissed and just walked out of the entire event.

Pink blasted: “Kanye West is the person p***ing me off right now. “I was at STELLA McCARTNEY’s Paris fashion show with the vice president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, PAUL McCARTNEY and Kanye West. “The entire time Kanye is going, ‘They need more fur in this show’. He just wouldn’t shut up about how he loved fur. I mean, he’s saying this to me, the PETA guy and Paul McCartney! “I was just so grossed out by him. I’m like, ‘You’re an idiot!’ “There are so many people who I think are a waste of skin and he’s up there. I should wear him. “Go on, donate yourself Kanye. People can wear your fur.

Something tells me Pink might be able to whoop Kanye's ass.
