Sad to see little kids threatening murder and talking about, “Stop Snitching,” in grade school. If Lil Mouse really wants to have a rap career he will need to move to more age appropriate content.

The older brother who was killed and suspected in the Boston bombings was deep into hip hop, and it appears he belonged to a fan website that touted that genre of music. What’s interesting … hip hop lyrics are notoriously violent and often degrading to women.

Why would a major media outlet like TMZ feel like this is relevant? Are they trying to imply Hip Hop had something to do with his actions? It seems like TMZ never misses an opportunity to throw Hip Hop under the bus. People want to know this man’s motive, not what is on his playlist.

We have seen some expensive t shirts over the years but this takes things to another level. A T shirt that cost more than most people make a year.

Everyone wants to be a, “Baller,” and stunt these days. If you have so much money why don’t you donate it and do something worthwhile with it? Impress people with acts of generosity rather than ignorance.

People with no sense seem to be posting this graphic all over online. I feel like this is a pointless comparison. Kobe Bryant was not starting when he first entered the league. In Kobe’s first year he averaged 15.5 mpg while Lebron average 39.5. Kobe was also not the star player for a while with Shaq holding that position on the Lakers. And yes, Lebron fans, we can’t compare all of Kobe’s rings with Lebron’s since he did have Shaq. How about we just stop comparing these two stars, their careers and play on the court are very different. Who is the better player will always just be a matter of opinion. We can’t even argue that until both of their careers are done.

Law And Order SVU had an episode tonight inspired by the infamous Chris Brown and Rihanna incident that took place in 2009. The story was very similar to real life with SVU even including Chris Brown’s bow tie and tattoo. Then things took a strange twist when someone was shot inside a club instead of a bottle war with Drake. Then the episode ended with the fake Rihanna asking, “Caleb,” who sent him a text. Seconds later we see the fake Rihanna has been killed. It was bad enough SVU was digging up old wounds but to have the fake Rihanna get killed was ridiculous. Along with the bad ending the episode was plagued with horrible acting that made the episode feel like SNL skit. Releasing this episode was in bad taste in my opinion.

Chris Brown had this to say recently about the incidet:
“That night was the deepest regret of my life, the biggest mistake.But she loves me – what can I say? I’m forgiven… but, yes, I worked hard for it. It’s different now. We don’t have those types of arguments any more.”(Source: Mirror)

One thing to steal money to feed your kids or take care of medical bills, but this was clearly used just to ball out. A Rolex and furs? He deserves all the prison time he gets.
