The Game: Jay-Z will fuck 50 up in a battle!

Here's the Game, in an interview with Complex, talking about how Fiddy don't want it with Jay, but Game would bite Jay's ear off.

Complex: 50’s been baiting Jay-Z recently. As someone who’s had issues with both of them, how do you feel about him going after Jay?

Game: Oh yeah, I already did that Jay-Z thing. 50’s just doing what I’m doing. Nobody went at Jay, I went at Jay. Now everybody wants to get at Jay, not saying anything about Beanie Sigel, that’s personal and I stay out of that. He’s just a man and he’s got all the right in the world, but I feel like I did something that people have been wanting to do, but everybody is scared because Jay-Z is so lyrically inclined to cut your throat and your career in half that nobody wanted to do it. But me? I just don’t give a fuck sometimes.

Complex: What do you think that the result of that battle would be?

Game: Jay-Z will fuck 50 up in a battle! It would be so fast and over with. 50 is funny, but Jay is witty. Jay-Z is not to be toyed with. If he fuckin’ responds, if he feels like you’re really pissing him off and he responds, he’s gonna fuck you up! He would fuck me up, I’m just glad he didn’t fuckin’ respond, so I didn’t have to go dig in my fuckin’ bag and try to fuck him up. I definitely think that Jay-Z didn’t come at me like he came at any other rappers because I definitely would have been more disrespectful and once you start a beef with me you better be ready to go the whole motherfuckin’ 12 rounds because I will try to chew your fuckin’ ear off like Mike Tyson. I’ll do it and I think he knew that—I’m disrespectful. So Jay, he did the right thing and just kinda let it die down and I let it die down ’cause it wasn’t anything really. It was fuckin’ fun and I really admire Jay’s career. I just really don’t care too much for the man himself.

RapPravda pwned by XXL

So XXL finally did release their list of the top 100 hip-hop websites. ANIMAL actually beat them to the punch, but then XXL posted the entire list, complete with descriptions of each site, in two parts, yesterday and today.

I was gonna post on it back when the list first hit the Internets, then again yesterday, but I couldn't bring myself to give a shit. The list isn't in any kind of order, other than alphabetical, and including that many sites really diluted the overall quality. No shots at any of the sites that wouldn't have been mentioned, if they'd capped it at, say, the top 50.

Here's the description of this site:

Imagine the perfect blogger: witty, controversial, curmudgeonly and a bit portly from all those hours spent raging on the Interwebs. Now put him in St. Louis and have him write about rap. As evidenced by altercations with Bun B and Lupe Fiasco, Crawford is the rare blogger whose personality distinguishes him from the rest of the field. (Also can be found blogging on XXLMag.com.)

They just had to mention me being a bit portly, huh?

The description of RapPravda makes it sound like a propaganda organ for Shady Records:

Backed by Eminem’s manager, Paul Rosenberg, and fronted by longtime hip-hop journalist Elliott Wilson (Ego Trip, The Source, XXL), RapRadar was launched in early 2009 to bestow the public with Slim Shady exclusives, a healthy collection of daily links, aggregated content and grainy, cinema-verité flip-camera footage.

Granted, everything they said is true. But obviously they don't want people knowing who really owns the site and why. Otherwise, it'd be mentioned right there in the masthead, and then again the body of posts like this one.

The ADL attacks Alex Jones

The Conspiracy King on the real reason the ADL tried to pin a yellow star on the troof.

Part 2 after the jump.

ADL tries to toss the troof in an oven

Alex Jones makes a movie about how Barack Obama is a tool of the New World Order, so the Anti-Defamation League - usually tasked with painting people as antisemites, for political purposes - issues a hit piece on Alex Jones? Hmm...

Take it away, Alex Jones:

The ADL has launched a new purge against its political enemies in the form of a major report that equates skepticism and distrust of government with “a toxic atmosphere of rage,” which is threatening to boil over in the form of violence, specifically targeting Alex Jones as “The Conspiracy King” and inferring that people upset with Barack Obama’s policies are potential mass murderers.

The tone of the ADL’s hit piece basically implies that Alex Jones and his ilk are such a threat to the establishment that they should be removed from society, which ironically is exactly how Hitler dealt with his political enemies in Nazi Germany. The ADL is allegorically pinning a yellow star on “conspiracy theorists,” Oath Keepers, Tea Party protesters, and anyone else who dares express dissent in response to the financial looting of the country or Barack Obama’s big government agenda.

You'd think they'd know better.

And why are they going after Obama's political opponents anyway? Jones suggests that part of the reason is that the Holocaust Industry has reached market saturation and is looking to expand into other sectors.

This isn’t the only motive the ADL has in attempting to make the case that there are hordes of angry Americans waiting to commit violence. As Jewish scholar Norman G. Finkelstein exposes in his global bestseller The Holocaust Industry, establishment Zionist organizations like the ADL have fleeced billions by manufacturing the perception that there are legions of extremist hate criminals everywhere that need to be tackled by the authorities. The ADL needs to create enemies and bogeymen where none exist in order to justify their own existence and to continue to attract funding.

Now that global anti-semitism is on the wane, the ADL has resolved to ceaselessly fearmonger about “conspiracy theorists” and American taxpayers who merely express anger about how they have been financially raped by the multi-trillion dollar bailout and the continued looting of the economy by private central banks and offshore cartels

See, it's all connected...

Notorious sex crime exploitation: the next wave in pr0n?

As pointed out in the comments section yesterday, some enterprising visionary is making a pr0n film based on the Jaycee Dugard kidnapping.

According to Sacramento TV station CBS 13, Shane Ryan, an actor and low budget underground filmmaker behind such straight-to-DVD movies as "Amateur Porn Star Killer" and "Sex, Kids, Party," wants to make a movie called "Abducted Girl: An American Sex Slave," based on the Dugard kidnapping.

He says he doesn't want it to come off exploitative, but I hope he was just saying that so that the girl interviewing him didn't think he was a douche.

But Ryan says that he won't exploit Dugard in his proposed movie.

"We want to capture how sad this story is, but also how interesting," Ryan said in a phone interview with CBS13. "We're trying to figure out a way to do that so it's not exploitative."

The thing is, now that the idea is out there, if he doesn't do the right thing with it, someone else is just gonna run with it. Not that approve of pr0n films exploiting the victims of horrific crimes. I'm just saying. Anything worth doing is worth doing right.

The girl in the picture above isn't Jaycee Dugard. It's Jodie Sweetin, one of the non-Olsen Twin girls from Full House. I think I saw on Entertainment Tonight back in the late '90s that she was on the pipe. But it looks like she took some of that Full House money and put it towards her personal appearance. Bonus!

Caveman Circus has a full gallery of recent pictures of Jodie Sweetin, including a few profile shots that are downright wicked, and a picture of her giving some douche a lapdance that damn near changed the course of my afternoon. As a matter of fact, they might need to see about casting her in the lead role of this film.

Quoted: jimi izrael on the black community's latest faux outrage

Will the case of Heather Ellis, who faces up to 15 years in the joint for cutting in line at Wal-Mart (and also for attempting to beat up the police), become the next Jena 6? Not if jimbrah izrael has his way it won't.

Internet activism is almost always suspect because everyone has an opinion, but rarely does anyone have full possession of the facts. Ever. When six troubled young black men were going to be over-sentenced for assaulting another student, it somehow got connected to the fact that someone hung a noose on a tree. These facts were not in anyway related, but it made for sexy subject lines and blog-fodder for all the usual suspects to exploit and hop on board for their close-up. Back at the ranch, the boys are on BET throwing up faux-gang signs and on MySpace with mouthfuls of your donated money. For all the marching and lofty talk, today, those boys are still effed up in the game. I told Tom to his face: It don't matter that you use the radio and Internets to rally folks, if everyone is wrong. We can't co-sign everyone just because they are black.

This gets to Heather Ellis.

See, as it happens, it's merely impolite in civilized society to cut in line, but it is illegal to assault a police officer in all 50 states. Still. I know—there's a black man in the White House. But even if you are buddies with B-Rock, you don't have a license to lunch out on the police. Sorry. Money Watkins is my man, fifty-grand, and he knows it. But even the best of us get it wrong sometimes. This could be such a time. Heather Ellis may be a preacher's daughter, with no previous record. But if witness reports are to be believed, she's not that innocent.

From the Inbox: Rawse probably is on weird high school drugs

Shout out to Preston V from Racine, who wrote in with the following,

hey byron,

I was reading your article bout rawse and I believe i have some info and proof the officer has at least dabbled into the drug known as Triple Cs and the name of said group may not be a coincidence. When I was in high school a few years ago a few friends of mine would use said drug. To give you some info on the drug Triple C stands for coricidan cough and cold. It is a cheap over the counter pill that contains dextromorphan(youtube people trippin on pure dex its pretty humorous you can extract the dex in some crazy sorta crackheadish method and if you consume the pure you pretty much act a fool ive heard), a drug that if you consume enough you "trip" for awhile. If you take ten or so of them you get the full effect.There are different varieties of coricidan but only the coricidan cough n cold dont have the other active drugs in it that if you consume so many pills youd ya know....die or fuck yourself the fuck up.....thus Triple Cs being the popular title bc its the only "safe" variation to take. My friend Nick referred to it as "ghetto extasy" lol.

Anyway, now back to the Rawse connection to triple C. When I was i high school I dabbled in weed every now and then. Sometimes when you are smokin with certain people you end up listening to thier bullshit music. In my high school days a popular song amongst people who do drugs and have shitty taste in music would play "pill poppin" by officer ricky pretty often. In the beginning of the song rick ross says "Ima go pop me some of these skittles." Skittles being the "street term" for coricidan cough and cold(triple Cs) bc the pills looks similar to skittles.I knew his group was called triple Cs and when I heard him say that I began thinking there must be a connection and he might have a habit of taking em. I came to that conclusion years ago so im happy to c im not the only one who noticed this shit. I think this proves you aren't dillusional with you theory.In fact, I think you uncovered a hidden truth that only I thought Id ever notice.I mean if you had officer rickys life which is pretty much a huge lie and were constantly getting shitted on by fifty wouldnt you want something that would take you to a fantasy world(ross' probably being a world where he is a good father,Triple C albums go platinum, and where hed have a never ending supply of crab meats) every now and then too lol. It makes sense. Now you got my research on the subject matter. Hope I helped prove most your assumptions have a lot of truth to them and they arent just some ole bullshit.
