Foxy’s antics have finally caught up to her. She had one temper tantrum too many and now will be spending a year in Rikers. She is getting locked up for assaulting a neighbor with a cell phone.

     With the overwhelming amount of anticipation surrounding Kanye West’s third album Graduation, many hip-hop fans are expecting the given usual ingredient of great innovative production in West’s musical repertoire. With the techno-inspired second single such as “Stronger”, Kanye West exposes hip-hop fans to a different avenue in his sampling techniques. Earlier this week, he revealed in his album listening session that he had been listening to a considerable amount of rock music during these past two years. West’s sense of musical experimentation potentially incites some conversations amongst individuals about the definition of “true” hip-hop especially in a period where the debate over hip-hop is constantly been a hot topic with the rise and commercial success of southern rappers into the mainstream musical scene. West’s new wave musical expression is even reflected in his wardrobe which has sparked reactions from hip-hop circles including fellow labelmate Beanie Sigel who objected to West’s fashion sense and labeled him a gay man as a result of it.
