Chris Brown May Face Probation Violation

Prosecutors have asked a judge to revoke Chris Brown’s probation, saying there is no credible evidence he completed his community service sentence for beating Rihanna, and citing several other incidents that they say point to anger management issues.

The motion filed Tuesday by the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office focuses heavily on issues with Brown’s community labor in Virginia, citing numerous discrepancies and claiming the R&B singer essentially was unsupervised.

Brown’s attorney Mark Geragos blasted the filing, telling The Associated Press that it was frivolous and defamatory and he planned to seek sanctions against prosecutors.

The prosecution’s motion also notes several incidents in which Brown has lost his temper, including throwing a chair through a window after a “Good Morning America” interview in which he was asked about his beating of Rihanna on the eve of the 2009 Grammy Awards. The report also cites Brown’s Jan. 27 fight with R&B singer Frank Ocean, including Ocean’s claim that Brown threatened to shoot him in the brawl over a parking space.

Sheriff’s officials have said they are unlikely to seek charges against Brown for the recent fight with Ocean, since Ocean has posted online that he does not intend to seek criminal or civil penalties. Ocean told investigators that Brown shouted that he and his entourage “can bust on you too,” which authorities wrote was a street slang term for shooting someone.

Brown is due in court Wednesday for a probation hearing.

After a very long custody battle and extended divorce proceedings, Allen and Tawanna Iverson are officially free of each other, but the bruising battle put a lot of Allen’s personal demons on display.

In the final divorce decree, TMZ reports that the judge blasted Allen for being an alcoholic and his bad parent skills.  It said,

“[Iverson] does not know how to manage the children; has little interest in learning to manage the children and has actually, at times, been a hindrance to their spiritual and emotional growth and development.

For example, he has refused to attend to an obvious and serious alcohol problem, which has caused him to do inappropriate things in the presence of the children while impaired.

He has left the children alone without supervision. He has left his young daughters in a hotel room with men who are unknown to the mother.”

Molly: Affecting Kids and Hip-Hop

Perspiration levels are not the only thing the new drug of choice amongst rappers are affecting. Now it is kids. Child Psychiatry specialist, Dr. Dale Peeples claims “35% of popular songs contain drug references” and in one day a child can be exposed to these references roughly 84 times.

Reporter Jillian Benfield of WJBF News Channel 6 in Augusta, GA wrote that she and her photographer heard Molly referenced at least twice on a 30 minute trip to Thomson, GA.

The art director at a Augusta Mini-Theatre, Judith Simon-Butler told the WJBF reporter that kids “hear those lyrics and then some of them try to live those lyrics.”

As a response to this, mini-theater is putting on a play focused on conveying negative music’s effects.

According to Narcotics Sergeant Allan Rollins, Molly-related emergency room visits have increased five fold, since 2004.

Molly (shortened name for “molecule”) is the powder or crystal form of MDMA, which is commonly used in pressed pill Ecstasy.

Molly has been labeled by the DEA as a Schedule 1 controlled substance which has no medicinal usage and can be highly addictive.

Undoubtedly one of the most verbal proponents of the drug have come from hip hop artists.

Here is a list of recent rap references to the drug that have exploded its national appeal:

Lil Wayne

“Cashed Out” (Off Dedication 4 mixtape): “Riding around with a b**ch named Molly and she on Molly

“Roman Reloaded” (Off Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded): “Pop a Molly, smoke a blunt. That means I’m a high roller.

2 Chainz

“Molly” (Off Jae Millz’s The Appreciation 4 mixtape): “Molly, Molly, Molly, Molly, Molly/still serving the narcotics.”

“I Luv Dem Strippers” (Off Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded): “Got your girl on Molly, we smoking loud and drinking.

Juicy J

“Get Higher” (Off Blue Dream & Lean mixtape): Molly got the white girls going straight berserk” “Pop a Molly, drink some orange juice, get higher I put Molly on the tongue, of any n*gga wifey

“Juicy J Can’t” (Off Blue Dream & Lean mixtape): Molly in my veins got my heart beatin’ like a drum

“Lucky A*s Bit*h” (Off Mac Miller’s Macadelic mixtape): “Molly pills, orange juice got the b*tch wired”

Trinidad James

“All Gold Everything” (off Dont Be S.A.F.E mixtape): “Popped a Molly, I’m sweating

“One More Molly” (off Dont Be S.A.F.E mixtape): “Popped a Molly, she gon’ do/things that you never knew”, “That Molly got her naked/Her friends looking basic”,”I been on Molly since I stepped in”, “That Molly life I’m all about”, “This Molly life is my way.”

FRANK OCEAN OFFERS ‘FORGIVENESS’ TO CHRIS BROWN, WON’T PRESS CHARGES

Chris Brown and Frank Ocean

Frank Ocean is putting a peaceful end to his feud with Chris Brown. The “Thinkin Bout You” singer has decided to find forgiveness and not press charges.

Following their brawl that occurred last month at a recording studio in West Hollywood, Ocean spoke out about the incident in a letter on his blog.

“As a child I thought if someone jumped me it would result in me murdering or mutilating a man,” wrote Ocean, who is nominated for six Grammys. “But as a man I am not a killer. I’m an artist and a modern person.”

He decided to let bygones be bygones and not press any charges or file a lawsuit. “I’ll choose sanity. No criminal charges. No civil lawsuit.”

The decision wasn’t an easy one to make. “Forgiveness, albeit difficult, is wisdom. Peace, albeit trite, is what I want in my short life. Peace,” he said.

Frank suffered a cut finger, while Chris injured his hand during the altercation. Chris maintains that Frank started the fight by refusing to shake his hand, while an eyewitness claims Chris threw the first punch. Chris fled the scene and has yet to speak with police about the incident.

The NFL Stands Up for Beyonce

Yesterday rumors circulated that Beyonce was creating a problem for Superbowl organizers, demanding a laundry list of expensive backstage perks.

The NFL shuts down the rumors. An NFL spokesperson tells TMZ

The reports are “pure pulp fiction” …  and working with Beyonce has been nothing short of a pleasure.

“Beyonce and her team have been great to work with throughout this process. We have enjoyed her creativity, vision and spirit in putting on a great show that is truly a Super Bowl performance.”

Chris Brown Quits Social Media

Chris Brown caught hellfire and brimstone yesterday after using social media to compare himself to Jesus in the wake of his fist fight with Frank Ocean.

Unable to stand the heat Chris severed ties with social media.  Before removing every picture from his Instagram account Chris Brown notified his fans of his departure posting,

“I would like to thank all my wonderful fans for letting me express my talents/art for you all.”

“But social media takes away the essence of why we are even special or icons. So with that, I’m detaching myself from that world.”

“Elevate yourself above the negative and if it doesn’t work move on! I respect myself enough as well as my fans to wanna be great!”

Chris Brown Gets Hand Cast After Frank Ocean Fight

Frank Ocean wasn’t the only one injured in Sunday’s scuffle at a West Hollywood recording studio. On Tuesday, Chris Brown was seen leaving his house with a hard cast on his right hand covering his knuckles.

An eyewitness told TMZ that Chris threw the first punch after Frank refused to shake his hand. However, Chris insists that he did not make the first move.

Following the chaos, Chris reportedly fled the scene. Now the “Deuces” singer wants to speak with detectives and tell his side of the story.

Chris’ lawyer, Mark Geragos, claims that the surveillance video shows that Chris did not throw a punch. But the video also clears Frank of any wrongdoing, only showing their crews fighting.

Frank cut his finger during the altercation. “got jumped by chris and a couple guys. lol,” he tweeted. “cut my finger now I can’t play w two hands at the grammys.”

Confirmed! Chris Brown, Frank Ocean Fight Outside of LA Studio

chris-brown-frank-ocean

Two of the biggest stars in R&B music  got into a physical altercation! According to TMZ, Chris Brown and Frank Ocean were both working out of the Westlake Studios in West Hollywood, Los Angeles earlier this evening (Sunday, Jan.27). As the story goes, Brown was attempting to leave but couldn’t drive off because Ocean and his crew had blocked him in. Frank Ocean was quoted as saying, “This is my studio, this is my parking spot” before Brown tried to calm the situation by reaching in for a handshake. That’s when members from both Ocean’s and Brown’s camps allegedly jumped in and started brawling.

As we mentioned above, this isn’t the first time Chris and Frank have had beef.  Back in the summer of 2011, the two crooners had a war of words on Twitter.  Then, the following night, Frank and Tyler, the Creator threw more jabs at Brown during a show in Los Angeles. There was also an infamous video of a group of guys claiming to be Brown’s cousins, stalking Ocean on a Los Angeles street. But later, the two called a truce via Twitter.  Frank Ocean confirmed the brawl on Twitter.

For the Idiots!!!! WSJ Posts Video Proving Beyonce Sang Live (Watch/Listen)

The Wall Street Journal says it has obtained audio direct from Beyonce’s microphone that proves she actually did sing the National Anthem live at the Inauguration.  Pretty much everyone who knows me, knows that I’m in love with Beyonce, and when people started to make accusations of her lip-syncing I just had to smh, because anyone who knows music or live entertainment can CLEARLY see the woman is singing live. I do live shows all the time, and understand the technicalities of it all.  However, for people to make a big deal over this is baffling; considering all of the MAJOR issues and problems in the world.  People just love to hate on Bey.  Yes, she’s super-talented, beautiful, I can go on and on.  Yet people still find reasons to hate on one of the baddest to ever do it.  Insecurity, envy, and jealousy is a bitch!!  We ALL know that Beyonce sings better live than on her albums, and I’ve seen her on more than one occasion, and she’s does it all in REAL time.  I said I wasn’t going to comment or post about this, but enough is enough and you people need to find a better hobby!!

The news organization posted to their web site a video of their live feed of the show, which includes audio from Beyonce’s mic — and it’s clear she is singing along with the track.
