Lupe’s Inauguration Fiasco

Last night Lupe Fiasco was kicked off stage at an Obama Inauguration party in Washington D.C. after launching into an anti-Obama rap during his set. For reasons unknown, considering his vocal anti-government stance, Lupe Fiasco was invited by StartUp RockOn to perform at their 2013 Presidential Inauguration party.
During his performance of ‘Words I Never Said’ Lupe spit,

“Limbaugh is a racist / Glenn Beck is a racist / Gaza Strip was getting bombed/ Obama didn’t say s— / That’s why I ain’t vote for him / next one, either / I’m part of the problem / my problem is I’m peaceful”

Next thing you know, Lupe’s mic went silence and the lights on stage went out.

Andre 3000 Not Here for Pink Matter Remix

A few weeks ago Outkast member Big Boi jumped on a remix of Frank Ocean’s Pink Matter sparking rumors of an Outkast reunion.

Not only was this not a reunion, Andre 3000 sounds a little salty that it even have happened…

3 Stacks tells Spin Magazine exclusively,

“It’s important for me to be clear about the origins of my contributions to ‘Pink Matter’ and ‘Sorry.’

I was approached as a solo artist by both Frank Ocean & Tip. I discussed musical direction with each artist and completed my verses. It was after that when Big Boi’s name came up.

I never want to mislead our audience – I worried that some would think these were Outkast collaborations. These songs are not Outkast collaborations. I discussed this rationale with Big, Frank and T.I. and everyone agreed. That is why I was surprised to read about these remixes.

I understand that anyone can put out an unofficial remix to any song but I have an obligation to be honest with fans about what this is … and what it isn’t.”

Carmelo Anthony Suspended 1 Game For Confrontation With Kevin Garnett (Video of Confrontation)

The NBA has suspended Carmelo Anthony the Knicks forward for one game without pay for “confronting” Kevin Garnett in Madison Square Garden after Monday night’s (January 7) game against the Boston Celtics. 

“There are no circumstances in which it is acceptable for a player to confront an opponent after a game,” said Stu Jackson, NBA Executive Vice President Basketball Operations, in a statement. “Carmelo Anthony attempted to engage with Kevin Garnett multiple times after Monday’s game and therefore a suspension was warranted.”

The NBA contends that Melo attempted to confront KG in the tunnel, near the player’s locker room and in the parking lot. Yesterday, Anthony told reporters he didn’t do anything that warranted a suspension.

However, this morning, footage of Anthony and Garnett arguing loudly near the Celtics’ team bus was revealed (see below). Clearly the two players would have been doing more than just talking if their entourages and security had not been on hand.

Kevin Garnett Talks Trash About LaLa

Two days ago Carmelo Anthony and Kevin Garnett got into a heated argument during the NY Knicks / Boston Celtics game and now it’s being reported that they were arguing over Carmelo’s wife LaLa.

According to Black Sports Online the reason they were fighting is because Kevin told Carmelo that LaLa tastes like Honey Nut Cherrios.

The slander was so serious that Carmelo waited outside the Celtics bus to finish the conversation but was held back by security from getting too close.

Oxygen Network Defends Shawty Lo And All His “Babies’ Mamas”

Having 10 baby mama’s like Shawty Lo might sound pretty entertaining to some, but it also might be too much for television.

The new Oxygen special featuring Shawty Lo, his 11 children and their 10 mothers, called All My Babies’ Mamas, ticked off a lot of people who ensured they won’t be tuning into what is likely to be some rachet tv and the network has recieved some heavy backlash.

While there have been petitions against airing the show because they believe it “demeans black men, women, and children”, the network is standing by their decision to show the one-hour special.

They said in an exclusive statement to Radar Online:

“Oxygen’s one-hour special in development is not meant to be a stereotypical representation of everyday life for any one demographic or cross section of society. It is a look at one unique family and their complicated, intertwined life. Oxygen Media’s diverse team of creative executives will continue developing the show with this point of view.”
