Since everyone else is posting it, I’m going to also. This track did grow on me though I’m not feeling the video at all.

Premiere: Gucci Mane - ‘Worst Enemy’

At first, I wasn’t going to post this video because I’m not running a Hip Hop blog here.

But I’ve changed my mind in light of the developments over the past 24 hours. It’s obvious that Gucci Mane and a lot of these thugs who pass themselves off as entertainers are their own worst enemies. So this track is very appropriate considering the circumstances.

Gucci’s new CD, The State Vs Radric Davis, is in Stores DecemBURR 8th!

Celeb Style: Mariah Carey is Too Old for This

R&B singer Mariah Carey is over in London promoting her new CD, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel.

Yesterday she wore a cleavage revealing negligee under a pea coat. Today she thought she’d try out a tight, pleather mini skirt zipped up the side that she must have borrowed from Amber Rose.

Pelosi: Prison Time For Not Buying Health Insurance is “Very Fair”

Remember kiddies, if ObamaCare passes and you don’t buy health insurance you’re going to prison. I keep forgetting that you think health care will be free!

House speaker Nancy Pelosi (who I think has a touch of Alzheimer’s) confirmed this legislation again today during a press conference.

Shomari Stone, KOMO reporter: “Do you think it’s fair to send people to jail for not buying health insurance?”

Pelosi: … I think the legislation is very fair in this respect.

Pelosi also mumbled something about people getting sick and sending the bill to the taxpayer. Does that happen now?

Pelosi made it clear that even though it’s unconstitutional to force Americans to buy anything, the Obama administration is going to try and do it anyway. Only the illegal immigrants, elderly and chronically unemployed (homeless) are exempt from this rule.

The feds better start building new prisons!

Celeb Style: Rihanna and Melissa Out & About in London

Pop singer Rihanna and her BFF slash assistant Melissa Forde are over in London and doing Paris yesterday. it must be chilly now because Rihanna was all wrapped up in a cozy, warm sweater. I hear that RiRi bought Melissa, who has a low profile Twitter account, has “every Louis Vuitton bag they make.” But I don’t believe that. I think someone is pulling my leg because Melissa does not appear to be a fashionista like her girl Rihanna.

Guest Blogger: Danny Blaq

Longtime reader Danny Blaq is our guest blogger today. Danny, aka DBlaq, is an industry professional for over 12 years who has worked with many of today’s artists. He is also an entrepreneur with many business ventures under his hat including an online radio station (e411 Radio), graphic design, digital media services and a modeling agency.

DBlaq responded to my post on Democrat mandated prison time for Americans who refuse to buy health insurance if ObamaCare passes.

Dblaq writes:

I don’t agree with that policy either, I don’t think people should be forced to buy anything in a free country. Also, whats annoys the crap out of me when people keep saying “Not on my tax dollar”. You don’t own that tax dollar. They spend that money however they want, regardless how you feel about it, once it’s out of your check, paid or garnished. It belongs to the government. So stop saying that.

There are other options [than] mandating the insurance. For one: regulate insurance companies just like they do Georgia Power or any other monopolized company. Also, if they would just revamp the welfare system. How many of us know people on welfare get food stamps, only to sell them for 50%? Or if you are on welfare you shouldn’t be allowed to have any kids. People say that you can’t tell people what they need to do, Well I think they can when they want FREE Sh*t.

So there are a bunch of alternatives [than] to force people to buy insurance. Health care in Europe is not free. They pay more taxes over there plus they complain that their wait times are anywhere from 4 weeks - 6 months. WTF? Japan has a good healthcare system but it would never work in the US because of the type of people we are. Alot of things wouldn’t work for us because of our culture, so we can’t look at other countries.

I like what Obama stood for in his campaign, but that doesn’t mean I will agree with everything he does and I think that is a problem with us black people. We will take anything Obama says as gold because he is black. He [has] good points of views and he has bad ones. That is a bad one. Of course the lawmakers ain’t worrying about it because they already get the best healthcare there is!

Obama Cracks Down On Islamic Mosques?

In a surprising move that provoked anger and outrage in the Muslim community, the Feds (on orders of the Obama administration) raided and seized four U.S. mosques and a Fifth Avenue skyscraper owned by a nonprofit Muslim organization long suspected of being secretly controlled by the Iranian government on Thursday [link].

The feds also seized a building that houses the Islamic Education Center of Houston. The news sparked outrage among Houston’s Shia Muslims, who worshiped there and sent their children to an Islamic school in the building.

This action comes one week after a home grown Islamic terrorist opened fire on Fort Hood soldiers killing 13 and wounding 48. The federal seizures seem out of character for terrorist sympathizer Barack Obama who made it known from his first day in office whose side he was on.

According to the AP, it is extremely rare for U.S. law enforcement authorities to seize a house of worship, as such action might violate the First Amendment right to freedom of religion. Federal prosecutors filed a civil complaint in federal court against the Alavi Foundation, seeking the forfeiture of more than $500 million in assets.

Celebs Out & About

Rihanna arriving at the Park Hyatt hotel in Paris yesterday. Also yesterday, a loyal reader emailed me saying she hoped Rihanna’s new CD Rated R fails because Rihanna has forgotten where she came from. I have to agree that Rihanna has gone Hollywood and forgotten her humble beginnings. If you look at her Twitter page (if that’s even her updating it) she follows no one.

Even the biggest narcissists in the biz (Oprah, Ashton and Diddy) follows somebody. Apparently, Rihanna’s head is THAT BIG that she feels no one is worthy of following on Twitter. Too bad she feels that way.

The music industry’s most immature, uncultured and bad-mannered couple, Kanye West and Amber Rose were spotted out & about in Italy yesterday wearing his and hers vintage Air Jordans. Thankfully she didn’t dress like a slut during her visit to the Vatican earlier this week.

Train Wreck Katt Williams Booted Out of 4 Seasons Hotel

Troubled comedian Katt Williams is like that drunk uncle who we think is hilariously funny when he’s tipsy. But he’s not so funny when he’s sober. So we overlook all the crazy things he does because he makes us laugh.

Sadly, Williams has more problems to deal with than just an occasional tumble off the wagon. He has mental problems too — and we can no longer overlook that. His mental problems means he is unreliable when recalling his actions and behavior. So any videos you see of him explaining himself can’t be trusted.

Last night, a friend of mine (one of my sponsors) who lives at the posh Four Seasons hotel and luxury residence on 14th Street in midtown called me to say Williams had just been kicked out of the hotel.

The hotel threw Williams out because he was loud and belligerent and caused a scene in the lobby.

But Williams told the AJC a different story.

According to sources close to Williams, he has bipolar disorder and he must have been having grandiose delusions when he told the AJC that he purchased a penthouse at the Four Seasons and also rented seven rooms for seven nights — all lies, according to the hotel management which had no record of him staying there.

All of this comes just days after Williams posted $41,000 bond to get out of the Coweta County jail after his much-publicized arrest for burglarizing a friend’s house.

We all thought Williams was funny onstage (in a weird sort of way), but now we know that he was really crazy all this time.
