DESPERATE TIMES: RAPPER THE GAME SET TO STAR IN VH1 WEDDING “REALITY” SHOW

I remember when independent label Koch Records was the place where fading rappers went to die. Now “reality” TV has become their new resting place.

Did anyone care? I don’t remember any media outlets or bloggers racing to post news and gossip about his personal life so why the announcement? []

THE FA RELEASES WRITTEN REASONS FOR JOHN TERRY VERDICT/ ASHLEY COLE CALLS FA A “BUNCH OF TWATS”
