Snoop Lion? I can’t…. What is he going to do next? join the Nyabinghi? I like Snoop Dogg but he needs to leave Reggae music alone. He should stick to what he is good at.

The surprise of a lifetime was unveiled at Westfield Stratford City as Adidas brought astonished shoppers face to face with global icon David Beckham. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0OzSpzYe6I&feature=player_embedded#! … The little boy and his mum seem genuine, but the others featured look like they could have been hired by the Adidas marketing team.

It has been an interesting couple of weeks for Chelsea FC star Ashley Cole. First he rocked up to Westminster Magistrates’ Court to defend his team mate, “good friend”, master and nasty piece of work John Terry. Then he was called every name under the sun including a “sell out”, “fassy” and a “choc ice”.

Is footballer John Terry racist? Well most of you already know what I think. But check out SB.TV’s recent debate on the subject matter featuring rapper Scorcher (#Sports By Scorch). WARNING: Some profanity. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61K3TDVGH9g [Thanks Lorraine] Scorcher made some good points. However I don’t agree with his comments with regards to the word “nigger/nigga”. Misguided black folk need to stop believing that it can be used as a “term of endearment” and can now be seen as “positive”. The word is vile and […]

Since giving evidence in defence of his team mate and “good friend” John Terry at his racism trial last week (click here if you missed it) where Terry admitted to calling QPR player Anton Ferdinand a “f*cking black c*nt” during a match on October 2011, footballer Ashley Cole has been called every name under the sun including a “sell out” and a “choc ice”. But Shoe Shine Cole has received a lot of support from the mainstream media who up until his appearance at Westminster […]
