I have been speaking on how The Viral Marketing has taken off in the music business, but here is some information i have seen.

The path from obscurity has always been a treacherous one for artists, and the internet has only multiplied the competition. But successful bands are frequently adept at finding and energizing their core audiences online, and that means manipulating a growing number of digital outlets and formats.
If a group or song is hot, fans will spread the action organically, and the snowball sometimes builds overnight. But bands are frequently savvy at seeding the excitement, and that almost always involves video content. "Video is key," said David Dorn, a senior vice president at Rhino Records, speaking to a group of students, executives, and reporters at UCLA on Wednesday. "Right now, online, video is what everybody is interested in. And if you are working with a new band, you have to make sure there are enough video assets."
During the session, Dorn also pointed to the importance of other types of content, including images and MP3s. Fans are simply ravenous for fresh content, including video - and that is a demand that must be satisfied. For artists and labels, that means filming the band on the road, offering live clips and interviews, and uploading studio outtakes. "Document it, because that's what the fans want," Dorn assured.
Most motivated artists are already saturated within a number of online and video-specific outlets. But what is the secret to winning the seemingly hopeless attention game on YouTube? "Anyone can get 5-10,000 views," explained Larry Weintraub, chief executive of Fanscape. "But if you want to get into the hundred-thousands or millions, you've got to court some controversy."
That often includes a combination of "sex, killing, drugs, and violence," something few would argue with. Of course, the content involved must be aligned with the image of the group, though edginess and controversy are great viral lubricants. That will cause more fans to embed the videos into their profile pages, share links online, and boost rankings on YouTube.
At some point, the momentum starts to multiply in a highly decentralized way. The executives tossed around a number of tips-and-tricks for sparking that result - including intelligent mega-tagging - though the best viral path starts with core, dedicated fans.

Diddy Disses L.A. Times' Tupac Tie-In

By Natalie Finn

Sean "Diddy" Combs is "shocked."

The hip-hop mogul issued a pointed statement Monday denying the details in a web-exclusive Los Angeles Times report tying him, via interviews and FBI records, to the 1994 beating and shooting attack on Tupac Shakur at a New York recording studio.

"The story is a lie. It is beyond ridiculous and completely false," Combs said in response to the article by staff writer Chuck Philips, who reported on "newly discovered information" implicating two former Combs associates—talent manager James Rosemond and promoter James Sabatino—in the assault.

Sources said Combs knew in advance that the men were plotting an ambush on Shakur, who they believed had disrespected the Bad Boy Records founder by showing reluctance to join his label, per the Times article.

According to FBI accounts, Shakur was pistol-whipped and shot four times by his assailants. He also accidentally shot himself in the groin.

The Nov. 30, 1994, attack on Shakur, who said at the time he thought the beat-down had come at the hands of Combs and his pals—has been singled out as the start of the East Coast-West Coast feud that culminated in the 1997 shooting death of Combs compatriot Notorious B.I.G. in Los Angeles.

"Neither [Biggie] nor I had any knowledge of any attack before, during or after it happened," Combs' statement continued. "I am shocked that the Los Angeles Times would be so irresponsible as to publish such a baseless and completely untrue story."

Combs, Sabatino and Rosemond declined to comment for the Times story, but Rosemond's lawyer, Jeffrey Lichtman, pointed out that his client was never charged or questioned in connection with the attack.

In a post-publication statement, however, Rosemond called the report "a libelous piece of garbage."

"In the past 14 years, I have not even been questioned by law enforcement with regard to the assault of Tupac Shakur, let alone brought up on charges," he said. "Chuck Philips, the writer…has reached a new low by employing fourth-hand information from desperate jailhouse informants along with ancient FBI reports to create this fabrication. I simply ask for all rap fans and fans of Tupac to analyze this fiction for what it is."

Shakur was gunned down in Las Vegas on Sept. 13, 1996. His murder, like that of Biggie Smalls', remains unsolved.

Per the Times, Rosemond was convicted of unrelated weapons and drug charges in 1996 and spent three years in prison. He's currently on probation for assaulting a radio deejay in Washington, D.C. Sabatino is currently serving an 11 1/2-year stretch for wire fraud and racketeering after using fake credit cards to fund his Bad Boy entourage's lavish touring lifestyle in 1997.

Three men identified by the FBI as those who actually assaulted Shakur in 1994 are all serving time for other crimes and have not been charged in the Still I Rise rapper's attack.

Meanwhile, Forbes puts Combs' estimated net worth at $23 million and his empire has expanded to include fashion and fragrance lines, an Atlanta restaurant, TV production and other multimedia mogul-type enterprises.

He most recently appeared in an ABC production of A Raisin in the Sun, in which he reprised the role he played on Broadway.

Fed Takes New Steps to Ease Crisis
Monday March 17, 6:23 am ET
By Jeannine Aversa, AP Economics Writer
Fed Takes Steps to Ease Crisis, Cuts Lending Rate to Financial Institutions to 3.25 Percent

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Worry about the damage a growing credit crisis is inflicting on an ailing U.S. economy led the Federal Reserve to make a rare weekend move, lowering a key lending rate before Wall Street opened Monday.
The central bank approved a cut in its emergency lending rate to financial institutions to 3.25 percent from 3.50 percent, effective immediately, and created a lending facility for big investment banks to secure short-term loans. The new lending facility will be available to Wall Street firms on Monday.

"These steps will provide financial institutions with greater assurance of access to funds," Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke told reporters in a brief conference call Sunday evening.

The Fed acted just after JPMorgan Chase & Co. agreed to buy rival Bear Stearns Cos. for $236.2 million in a deal that represents a stunning collapse for one of the world's largest and most venerable investment banks. Just on Friday the Fed had raced to provide emergency financing to cash-strapped Bear Stearns through JPMorgan. Days earlier the Fed announced a set of other unconventional steps to thaw out a credit market in danger of freezing shut.

"It seems as if Bernanke & Co. are pulling out all the stops to avoid a serious financial market meltdown," Richard Yamarone, an economist at Argus Research, said Sunday evening.

However on world financial markets, Asian stocks plunged Monday after the JPMorgan and Fed announcements. Markets in Australia and New Zealand were also off and European stocks fell in early trading.

Oil prices hit a record in Asian trading as the value of the dollar continued its free fall and U.S. stock index futures were down sharply, suggesting Wall Street would open lower after sinking Friday.

"There is persistent credit uncertainty. Market players have been repeatedly let down which shows the subprime mortgage problems are so deep-rooted," said Atsuji Ohara, global strategist of Shinko Securities in Tokyo.

President Bush has scheduled a White House meeting Monday afternoon with his Working Group on Financial Markets, which includes Bernanke, Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson and Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Christopher Cox.

Paulson said Sunday, "I appreciate the additional actions taken this evening by the Federal Reserve to enhance the stability, liquidity and orderliness of our markets."

The new lending facility -- described as a cousin to the Fed's emergency lending "discount window" for banks -- is geared to give major investment houses a source of short-term cash on a regular basis -- if they need it.

It will be in place for at least six months and "may be extended as conditions warrant," the Fed said. The interest rate will be 3.25 percent and a range of collateral -- including investment-grade mortgage backed securities -- will be accepted to back the overnight loans.

The "discount" rate cut announced Sunday applies only to the short-term loans that financial institutions get directly from the Federal Reserve. It doesn't apply to individual borrowers.

The Fed's actions are the latest in a recent string of innovative steps to deal with a worsening credit crisis that has unhinged Wall Street. The action comes just two days before the central bank's scheduled meeting on Tuesday, where another big cut to a key interest rate that affects millions of people and businesses is expected to be ordered. That key rate is now at 3 percent and is expected to be cut by at least one-half percentage point on Tuesday. Analysts said the Fed's new steps may lessen pressure for a super-sized cut to that rate.

The Fed said in a statement that the steps are "designed to bolster market liquidity and promote orderly market functioning ... essential for the promotion of economic growth."

Even with the Fed's aggressive moves, economic and financial conditions keep deteriorating. An increasing number of economists believe the country already has slipped into its first recession since 2001. Many economists think that the economy is shrinking now in the January-to-March quarter. The first government figures on first-quarter economic activity will be released in late April.

The Fed on Sunday also approved the financing arrangement through which JPMorgan will acquire Bear Stearns. JPMorgan said the Fed will provide special financing for the deal. The central bank has agreed to fund up to $30 billion of Bear Stearns' less liquid assets, according to JPMorgan.

Pulse Report:
Fat Joe Vs. Prodigy, Dipset's Scarf Unravels, "Snoop Dogg Called Me Ugly," T.I. Flips Out Under House Arrest
written by Archie Fucque
Friday - March 14, 2008
Fat Joe

In this week's Pulse Report the streets are buzzing about Fat Joe sparring with Prodigy, the Dipset bond unraveling even more, Snoop Dogg sending an ugly message to the ladies, Eliot Spitzer bowing out disgracefully and T.I.'s new stylo.

[Editor Note: the views of this column do not necessarily reflect those of SOHH.com]

1. Fresh Beef. Fat Joe has found yet another enemy to battle in his never-ending beef with 50 Cent. Mobb Deep rapper Prodigy stepped in the crossfire of the war when he went at Joey Crack in one of his recent blog posts. The G-Unit affiliate essentially said Joe ranks among the rappers he doesn't listen to because they "suck".

"I gotta be brutally and no holds barred honest...............who the f*ck really likes any of these other rap mu'f*ckas? You really listen to Fat Joe? You really listen to Cassidy? Sheek Louch? Max-B? Jim Jones? Cam? Black Eyed Peas? Lupe Fiasco? Talib Kweli? Red Café? Joe Buddens? Uncle Murder? From the East Coast to West Coast and all in-between, it's too much bullsh*t to name it all, I mean the list goes on an on and let's be for real here, all that sh*t sucks to the maximum point of sucking."

And apparently the blog wasn't enough release therapy for P; he had more to say on video. [Watch here]

But to make sure he didn't alienate everyone he created a list of rappers he "f*cks wit." [Read here]

Meanwhile, in an interview with Rhaspody, Joe was quick to respond to P's rant.

"Prodigy? Before he was down with G-Unit, he might've did like 10 songs with me. I didn't even know he said all that. I know that he fell off and that [G-Unit] are very irrelevant in the hip-hop game today. He's not relevant no more. We had a big-time relationship and done did songs together. That really surprises me that he's talking like that. If he said that then I guess that's his opinion. I could tell you a million things about him, but I ain't gonna say nothing. I'm really disappointed with them Prodigy comments because I haven't been disrespecting him. He's in the gutter right now. I ain't speak with him ever since he got down with G-Unit."

I just pray for P's sake this doesn't get physical. Joe putting "the beats" on the little guy would suck to maximum point of sucking.

2. Death Of A Dynasty. Oh boy, it looks as if the end is near for the Dip Set clique, after yet another week of disorderly conduct amongst them. First, Freeky Zeeky drops a tell-all song, "Big Brother." OverKanye West's track of the same name, Zeeky delves deep into the in-house bickering the crew has been experiencing since Cam'ron and Jim Jones stopped seeing eye to eye. [Listen here]

Then Juelz Santana gets arrested for riding dirty with weed and hollow point bullets in his Bentley. Meanwhile, Jim Jones is still unhappy with Cam and preparing to bury former Byrd Gang member Max-B. [Listen here]

SMH. All you Dip Set goonies & groupies out there, allow me to write the first few lines of their eulogy.

Here lies a band of brothers that did it their way. No crew could stake claim to uniting some of the world's worst rappers and making them appeal to an entire generation. No one else had the uncanny ability of passing off metro-sexuality as thuggery-pink furs, scarfies. In the face of fear they never cowered - expect for that one time in the park. A resilient bunch they were. Able to bounce back from countless, beat downs, stabbings and bullet wounds...

Feel free to finish that for me.

3. Super Ugly. Apparently Snoop Dogg has been sipping way too much of what Bishop Magic Don Juan has been pouring in his gobbling. In a recent BET blog post the rap icon sounded like an irate pimp when he went on a mean spirited sexist rant against ugly women.

"How many ugly women selling records? None! Only the pretty ones sell records. Beyonce, Mary J, Keyshia Cole, the ugly ones don't sell. I ain't gon say no names, but they don't sell records. They just be singing their little hearts out, but they don't get no sales, cause they ugly. Now, that's my fault? I can see this on TV now: 'Snoop Dogg called me ugly.' You beautiful on the inside, baby. What I wanna say to go on top of that, to the chocolate women, the dark-skinned women, I love ya'll. I got a chocolate daughter at home. I always tell her chocolate is the best thing in the world...."

Damn Snoop, that's cold. Furthermore, Fantasia and Amy Winehouse are platinum selling artists. You're way off base with this homie.

4. Hard Out There For A Simp. Congratulations to former New York governor Eliot Spitzer, who is the first official honoree in the Pulse Report's "Sucks To Be That Guy" award. We like to give this decoration to the douche bag no one wants to trade places with at the moment. Of course you know by now the hip-hop hating governor from New York, who cracked down on the sale of mixtapes and went after many hip-hop radio stations for payola, was forced to resign after getting caught in a prostitution ring. Big El, was making it rain on them h*es at the tune of $5,000 a pop.

Now, in the spirit of my man Prodigy, let me the first to stake claim to the rap name Eliot Spitzer. From this day forth no rapper can come out with that name. This also includes all the aliases that come with it. E Spizzle,.E Spitz. Spitz Hot Fire. El Spitzer (for all you reggaeton cats). First b*tches!

Also I'm officially staking claim to being the first rapper to use these punchlines:

"I spitz fire like Eliot."

"I ain't lovin' her like a NY governor"

"Me break bread like Eliot?/What are you an idiot?"

First b*tches!

5. Arrested Development. Lupe Fiasco just dropped the remix to his single; "Superstar" and he invited Young Jeezy and T.I. to rock along side him on this one. From the sounds of it, seems like T.I. has been working on a funky new flow while under house arrest. [Listen here]

Wow! Tip smoked that one. He clearly had a lot to get off his chest as he addressed his upcoming trail and the rumors his Grand Hustle family is falling apart in his absence.

"You ain't gotta ride for me I ain't ask you to/Take the journey on my own I'll gladly do/You go on and turn around I'll call a cab for you/I stand up on my own two/me kiss the ass of who."

Who wants to doubt me that when T.I. gets out the crib and drops his next album Paper Trail, he'll replace Lil' Wayne as the "best rapper alive"?

Aurevoir sal cons! Fucque forever!

New York Gov. Spitzer resigns but more woes likely

By Ellen Wulfhorst

Resigning over reports he paid for a $1,000-an-hour prostitute, New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer leaves behind his political post but could face legal trouble from the stunning sex scandal.

Spitzer, who fought malfeasance on Wall Street with publicity-conscious vigor, fell from grace after The New York Times reported this week that his conversations to arrange for an expensive call girl in a Washington hotel were caught on a federal wiretap.

"The remorse I feel will always be with me," a grim-faced Spitzer, 48, said as he resigned on Wednesday with his wife by his side.

Indeed, his legal worries are likely far from over.

Spitzer, who came into office in 2007 promising to clean up state politics, faces the possibility of federal criminal charges over how he may have paid for prostitution services, specifically charges of structuring, which entail payments made so as to conceal their purpose and source.

Another violation may involve money laundering, if payments made to the suspected prostitution ring's shell corporations are found to be part of a larger conspiracy, legal experts said.

Legal observers speculated Spitzer was seeking to reach a deal to avoid or reduce any criminal liability before he left office. On Wednesday, the top federal prosecutor in New York said there was no such deal.

Prostitution is illegal in most U.S. states, but clients are rarely prosecuted and he is unlikely to face such charges.

But because he allegedly paid for the prostitute to travel to Washington from New York, he may have violated the Mann Act that bans interstate transport to engage in prostitution.

The Times reported on its Web site the prostitute was a 22-year-old woman who had left home in New Jersey at 17, originally hoping for a career as a singer in New York.

"I just don't want to be thought of as a monster," the woman told the newspaper.

It said she had been born Ashley Youmans but now is known as Ashley Alexandra Dupre, and that she was expected to be a witness in the case against four people charged with operating a prostitution ring. It said she had not been charged.

Political woes also may follow. Spitzer feuded with the state Senate's top Republican, Joseph Bruno, who claimed that Spitzer used the state police to spy on him.

On Thursday, attorneys were due in state court for a hearing on Spitzer's efforts to block further state Senate investigation into the matter. An earlier probe by the state attorney general was highly critical of Spitzer's administration.

It's a stunning change of fortune for Spitzer, who in his previous post as the state's chief prosecutor aggressively pursued wrongdoing on Wall Street. His disgrace was cheered by some financial power brokers who resented what they considered his heavy-handed and self-righteous ways.

Update** Kanye West & Alexis Phifer Secretly Married?

It looks like Kanye West potentially has good news to share with the world.

While everyone has been so busy being fixated on Jay-Z and Beyonce's wedding rumors, it seems that hip-hop's other King slipped a ring on his girls finger right up under our noses.

MTV Europe is saying the following

Kanye has fulfilled his mother’s final wishes by marrying his longterm girlfriend Alexis Phifer at a secret ceremony in Europe.

The rap star proposed to Phifer in 2006 while they were on a romantic holiday in Italy and new reports say that the two have now tied the knot while on vacation in Europe just last month.

The rumors could well be true, as the "Through The Wire" singer was keen on getting married away from the spotlight of the media. He even said to GQ magazine last year, “I’m just going to go and get married, I’m not going to make a big deal out of it.”

Update.

The ‘Stronger’ star’s rep insists that internet reports the two tied the knot in a hush hush ceremony in Europe are “untrue.”

Damn, well it was good the 15 minutes it lasted

Movie Stars Help With Obama Ad

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Published: March 13, 2008

Filed at 3:21 p.m. ET

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Sen. Barack Obama's advertising team is getting some friendly competition from film pros with some Oscar clout like Ben Affleck and Matt Damon.

The liberal group MoveOn.org, reprising a 2004 ad contest against President Bush, has enlisted the actors to help select an ad supporting Obama's campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination. MoveOn plans to air the winning commercial on national television, but organizers hope the real benefit could come simply from media attention, Internet buzz and the star power behind it.

''The spirit of the contest is to put into video form what it is that you think will help push Obama over the top.'' said Iliyse Hogue, the campaign director for MoveOn.org Political Action. ''It's a great thing for aspiring ad makers and film makers who want to participate in a meaningful way.''

Participants in the ''Obama in 30 Seconds'' contest will have until April 1 to submit their entries. MoveOn members, which the organization places at 3.2 million people, will be able to vote on their favorites by watching them on the MoveOn Web site. The top 15 entries will then be judged by a panel of liberal activists, recording artists and Hollywood notables.

Among them will be Affleck and Damon, both Academy Award winning actors and writers. Also judging will be actor Steve Buscemi, film director Oliver Stone, singer songwriters Moby, Eddie Vedder and John Legend, civil rights leader Jesse Jackson and hip-hop entrepreneur Russell Simmons.

MoveOn plans to announce the winner five days before the April 22 Pennsylvania primary. But Hogue said the organization had not yet decided when the ad would appear on television. ''We want to see what the landscape looks like,'' she said.

MoveOn.org has endorsed Obama and has used its membership network to make phone calls promoting his candidacy and to hold Obama house parties in Texas. Hogue said MoveOn members have donated $600,000 to the Obama campaign through MoveOn. By law, the group is not permitted to coordinate its ad campaign with Obama's.

In 2004, MoveOn received 1,500 entries for its ''Bush in 30 Seconds'' competition. The winner was an ad called ''Child's Pay,'' depicting children performing adult jobs followed by the words: ''Guess who's going to pay off President Bush's $1 trillion deficit?'' CBS refused to run the ad during the Super Bowl, but it still ended up being among the most watched political commercials, receiving free air time on newscasts and Web sites.

The entries that year, however, included two that compared Bush to Hitler, which MoveOn removed from its contest Web site but which the Republican Party used as examples of ''hate speech.''

The contest entries this time are explicit: ''Please no personal attacks on anyone.''

Other official rules:

-- ''Ads must be about Barack Obama and portray him in a positive light.''

-- ''Ads should not talk about or specifically reference Hillary Clinton or any other Democratic presidential candidate''.

-- ''Ads may reference John McCain, George W. Bush or the Bush administration, but only in the context of contrasting them with Barack Obama.'

Pulse Report:
50 Cent Pimps Fat Joe/Papoose Beef, Lil' Wayne Accused Of Swagger Jacking, Kanye West Scores 4 In A Row, Nas & Ice Cube - N*gger's W/ Attitude
written by Archie Fucque
Friday - March 7, 2008
50 Cent

In this week's Pulse Report the streets are buzzing about, 50 Cent playing Don King to Fat Joe and Papoose's title bout, Lil' Wayne's plagiarism, Kanye West staying Connect-ed on tour and Ice Cube inviting Nas and Scarface to a gangster party.

[Editor Note: The views of this column do not necessarily reflect those of SOHH.com]

1. "The Beats" Vs. The "Two-Piece." Unable to fulfill his wish to "bust 50 Cent's new teeth," Fat Joe settled for putting "the beats" on Papoose-allegedly. As previously reported on SOHH, Joey Crack and Brooklyn rapper Papoose got into an altercation at a North Carolina hotel prior to performing at a concert. Early reports of the fight were not in Fat Joe's favor, as a photoshopped image of the Bronx MC sporting multiple bruises on his face made its way around the net. Papoose backed those claims in an interview with San Francisco radio station KMEL. According to Pap he "put in work" by giving Joe a "two-piece" to the chin. [Listen here]

Of course Joe quickly countered with his side of the story. In a much more favorable light Joe told New York's Hot 97 radio he put "the beats" on Papoose and he challenged Curtis yet again. [Listen here]

If you're wondering how this all got started look no further than Fat Joe's nemesis 50 Cent. [Watch here]

SMH. I don't know who to believe in this sordid tale, but I know for sure that there are holes on both sides of this story. First, Joe claiming that after the fight Pap confessed to being a "Flow Joe" fan, is a damn lie. There is not one person on this planet that would tell him they liked that album. He was the undisputed worst rapper ever at that time. Nice try Joe. Second, Pap saying he "put in work" on Joe and his bodyguards is crazy. I'll readily believe he could sell 100,00 records before I believe that.

In the end, 50 Cent-the guy that started this mess-is laughing all the way to the bank.

2. Replica Rap. First Jay-Z got called out for his numerous Notorious B.I.G references now Lil' Wayne has been dubbed a "swagger jacker," by an anonymous hip-hop nerd. (It wasn't me). The self-proclaimed "best rapper alive" is being accused of lifting material from some of the game's greats - namely The Notorious BIG, Tupac, and Jay-Z. [Listen here]

For all you Wayne enthusiast, fall back. No need to get all worked up about this, trying to defend your man to the death, Weezy is not the only rapper guilty of swagger jacking. As I see it, no harm no foul. The real issue at hand is the fact that Lil' Wayne is no longer the best rapper in the game. Have ya'll heard him over the last year? The little man is no longer the beast that created the Carter 2. He's lost the swagger that he bored from others. The throne is open for the taking.

Who's going to step up and claim it? Come on New York, this is our chance to shift the balance of power. On second thoughts, forget it! New York rappers are too busy fighting one another. Free T.I.!

3. Well Connected. Grammy Award winning rapper Kanye West is taking his love for "Connect Four" to a whole new level. A few months ago West talked on his blog about his love for the game. There was even footage of Ye playing (and losing to) Beyonce Knowles. [Watch here] Now, according to TMZ, Kaneezy, made a request on his tour rider that "Connect Four" be set up in his dressing room. Apparently, Ye's obsession has rubbed of on Jay-Z. [Watch here]

Damn, talk about addicted. Too bad Kanye doesn't know Prodigy was the first rapper demanding board games on his rider. P was rocking the "Snakes & Ladders" way before cats was even thinking about doing stuff like that. Matter fact, the Mobb used to have the best "Uno" games poppin'off in the dressing room back in the day. Word dun.

4. Three The Hard Way. Gangster rap is still making Ice Cube do things. The former N.W.A legend linked up with Nas and Scarface on the remix to his latest single "Gangster Rap Made Me Do It." [Listen here]

Cube sounds a little aged, but respectable. As always Scarface was cold as ice. If that was a precursor to how Nas is going sound on the N*gger album, watch out.

SOHH, what's the peanut gallery have to say about that one?

5. 2 Live TV. Move over Flavor Flav, the suits over at VH1 have found your replacement. 2 Live Crew frontman Luke Campbell has just been granted a reality show on the cable network. According to the Hollywood Reporter, "Luke's Parental Advisory" was just picked up for eight episodes, to air this summer. The show follows Campbell as he juggles being a dad to two teenagers, while running his adult-entertainment business Luke Entertainment Group and planning a wedding with his fiancée.

Memo to the sadistic white men at VH1:

On behalf of every self-respecting black person in America we just want to say, thanks. This is just what we needed in the black community, another show with a has-been rapper that contributes to the misrepresentation of blacks in America. Feel free to spin this off into a 2 Live Crew reunion show, "Me Still So Horny." Better yet, just let BET come up with a horrible second-rate knock off of this. Thanks again.

This memo has been "Fucque Approved" by every person that realizes what you guys are doing.

Aurevoir sal cons! Fucque forever!

Times are tough, but I received some great advice today...Stop talking about the future and realize that the "Time Is Now!!!" Fuck the future, So in speaking with my second in charge, I said" lets do it, get back to the basics and take over this shit....

I made the comment this morning about my state, more and more people have been inquiring about my depressed state of mind. I think as people we tend to lean on the assumption that money can solve many of our problems.....

The comment i made was that...." the more money I make...The more depressed i become"

I have never had a problem making money...But i have been fighting this beast of inner peace for so long....i can't get it cured...I am trying my hardest to shake that fucking demon from my son..
