XXLMag.com | Kanye West Defends Chris Brown

Ah, friends. How many of us have them?

“Can’t we give Chris [Brown] a break? … I know I make mistakes in life.” –Kanye West, VH1’s Storytellers

Define “break.” Better yet, define “mistake.”

XXLMag.com | Joe Budden: Tell 'Em Why You [Not] Mad, Son!

Don’t you just love it when niggas tell you they aren’t mad in the most disturbed voice possible?

XXLMag.com | N.O.R.E. vs. Perez Hilton & Fatburger: On The Blogs Eatin'

As March approaches, some of hip-hop’s marquee players are making bids for The Big Dance.

My twitter buddy/top-ten favorite rap entertainer, The Real Noreaga, is having a MacGruber-like week. Mr. 57th Ave is finding new and amazing ways to lower his approval ratings.

[Blogger’s Note: He owe me a hunnid favors.]

XXLMag.com | Xzibit's Spin City

…and X-to-the-Z is your jittery deputy mayor.

After telling Foxxhole Radio all kinds of sordid details of his South Beach Adventure like a teenager who ain’t never been to a party before, the former gangsta rapper take the ultimate nigga low road by blaming the media for sounding like an asshole.

XXLMag.com | DDN Tournament Preview: Tattoo Time With Lil’ Wayne & Tyga

XXLMag.com | T.I.'s Road to Redemption Series Finale Preview

I just got my hands on the Closed Caption transcript for the series finale of T.I.'s Road to Redemption.

Much like your favorite ghetto Chinese take-out spot, this shit is Wai Ling.

XXLMag.com | Bone Thugs -N- Harmony Smoke Up K-Fed and Vanilla Ice?

K-Fed and Vanilla Ice sound like the street names of whatever they had to be smoking to do a clip like this.

Once my favorite rap group, the Brothers Bone have taken my undivided loyalty and parted it more times than they did their own hair in the 90s. I have nothing against writing songs for checks. If tricks is payin, we’s bout gittinnat mawfuck’n mwoney, lil’ daddy. However, the effects of some forms of degradation can’t bear a price tag.

XXLMag.com | Kanye West: Be-All, End-All You Can Be... All

Kanye Please is back!

"There's nothing more to be said about music. I'm the fucking end-all, be-all of music. I know what I'm doing. I did 808s in three weeks. I got it. It's on cruise control. . . . Man, we talked about music for God knows how long! Now let's talk about how my f*cking sweater didn't come back right from Korea. That's what's interesting me." –Kanye West, Details Magazine

XXLMag.com | Suge Knight, Please Sit Down

While the details are still murky regarding the altercation taking place between Marion “Suge” Knight and Akon’s “manager” (a la Yung Berg’s drunken scooter adventure), the result is familiar. Suge Knight stay losing, as they say on the blogs and message boards.

XXLMag.com | Mr. Collipark: A Relative Peacemaker

My weekend has been made whole by two things, the rise of Krypto-NATE and Martin Luther Collipark, jr. preaching about the appropriate uses of EweChoube and World Star Hip-Hop.

Windows "Kylie" Commercial

Wowsers. Meet Kylie. She designed Ron Mexico City.

New York Lottery Cashword "English Class" Commercial

I can't stand this here ignorant shit.

XXLMag.com | Akon's Gassed the Fluck Up

For today’s blent sacrifice, I’ve given up reading all Chris Brown and Rihanna stories. In doing so, I’ve found that there really isn’t much else out there for us urban folk to read.

Aside from 50 Cent’s Paul Bearer-directed WWE promo threatening a woman that’s brown enough to be DJ Khaled’s mother, it’s Akon and his Cribs-like fuckery that’s saved me from the incessant asswhoopin accounts.

XXLMag.com | Kanye West: Rihanna's the World's Greatest

“Rihanna is so important to our culture … to pop music… I feel like she is the most important artist in music and has the most potential. Her taste level and her age … she has the potential to be the greatest artist of all time.” –Kanye West, “On-Air with Ryan Seacrest”

Save the umbrella. Save the world.

XXLMag.com | Lil’ Kim on “Dancing With the Stars?” Werrrrrd?

Did Lil’ Kim apply for this shit herself or has ABC finally consulted VH1’s programmers?

XXLMag.com | Chris Brown & Rihanna: Stomp The Yardie

[Blogger's Note: I know Rihanna's from Barbados. It was really the best I could do.]

I told y’all back in 2006, something warn’t right with this Chris Brown boy.

XXLMag.com | Bow Wow & Soulja Boy Agree to Cease-Fire

We interrupt a surely more important moment of life and programming to bring you this Nigga Please Special Report.

Miniature Middle Teen region heads of state Bow Wow and Soulja Boy Tellem have agreed to a cease-whiner effective last night.

XXLMag.com | Lil' Wayne & Miss Katie's Totally Awesome First Date!

Before we discuss Lil’ Wayne’s most awesome interview with Katie Couric, I must preface today’s entry with the following:

“I’m a gangsta, XXL readers. And I do what I want.”

Damn, it feels good to be a gangsta. Perhaps this should be the permanent disclaimer.

XXLMag.com | Diddy in "You Know How't Get in the Club"

Am I the only one who notices that these Diddy fuckery blogs always seem to come in bunches?

“When Diddy arrived at 1:45 a.m. with a six-man entourage, a witness said he ‘flipped out’ when cops asked to search him and his friends.’He went nuts, saying, ‘Why are you disrespecting me like this? Why are you doing this to me?’ During the commotion, one of his guys slipped away, unsearched, back to the car.’

Combs ’stormed off and started to text DJ Clue asking, ‘What the [bleep] is going on?’ and asked if he could go in the back entrance.’ When told that the cops would have to search him and his friends there as well, Combs decided not to attend the party. His rep had no comment.” –New York Post, (most reliable newspaper ever)

XXLMag.com | 50 Cent & Rick Ross: Giving Season

It's not for Killaz, just Hundred Dollar Billaz.

 

As this magnificently unavoidable 50 Cent vs. Rick Ross spat gets super-uglier by the Clear Channel radio shift, I can't help but ponder the true battery in the back of this now full-blown media circus. Anyone who's paid attention to hip-hop over the past forever should be intelligent enough to know that this shit is generally pro-wrestling.

XXLMag.com | Diddy & D-Roc Build Snowmen for Lil' Kim

Diddy Blog, Bitches! Diddy Notorious Blog! Diddy Notorious Kimmy D-Roc Blog!

Ciroc Obama is back! This time he brings the muscle along for some shine as he weighs in on the success of Notorious and the fallacy of Lil’ Kim’s portrayal therein.

Oh, really?
