September 23, 2010

Millionaire Atlanta-based pastor, Bishop Eddie Long faces sexual abuse allegations and has been accused of engaging in sexual relationships with young men. Watch the ABC News report below. Eddie’s attorney appeared on a radio talk show this morning and addressed Eddie’s extra tight ‘muscle’ shirts. “The photos don’t corroborate these charges.

VIDEO: JIM JONES VERBALLY ABUSES HOTEL SECURITY STAFF (ATLANTA)

March 12, 2009

[Thanks Jigga] As most of you know my Jim Jim can do no wrong in my eyes. But I have to admit this video footage has left me shaking my head. This was embarrassing to watch. Jim handled the situation like a young ignorant male in his late teens/early 20s.  Not a good look at all for a man in his 30s. The security staff were just doing their jobs, and did not deserve to be verbally abused in this fashion.  Apparently the hotel had […]

BLAST FROM THE PAST: MONTELL JORDAN ATTENDS ‘MADEA GOES TO JAIL’ ATLANTA PREMIERE

February 18, 2009

90s R&B star Montell Jordan attended Tyler Perry’s ‘Madea Goes To Jail’ film premiere on Monday night (Feb 16th) in Atlanta, Georgia. I was never a Montell Jordan fan. I found his music bland and boring. But I am curious to know what he is doing now. Does he still make music? is he touring? Montell and Adina Howard (remember Miss ‘Freak Like Me’) just disappeared in to obscurity post 1996. The music industry can be so cruel and fickle…… I haven’t watched any of Tyler Perry’s films. Partly because they have never been […]

Last night (November 24th) the sophisticated Dirty Awards took place in Atlanta, Georgia and ended in violence and mayhem…. Radio One’s fourth annual Dirty Awards ended abruptly this evening when two separate altercations erupted reportedly between rapper Shawty Lo and members of the Grand Hustle camp tonight (November 24). An eye witness told AllHipHop.com that the tension between the two crews mounted during Shawty Lo’s performance, which included a diss version of Grand Hustle artist Yung LA’s song “Ain’t I.” As Lo performed his version […]
