Soulja Boy Goes on Racist Twitter Rant Against Media

Soulja Boy Tell Em may be a little too comfortable posting his thoughts on his Twitter page. The Atlanta native, who has around 976,000 followers, recently went on a racist rant against the media's portrayal of his music and image.

"Water down my music and my appearance and make me look like something I'm not," he twittered. "These crackers don't know who the f--- I really am!!!! Then I get signed, this is where my dream slowly died... these crackaz wanna' criticize a n--ga. Take REAL sh-t and turn it to trash. Like why? Like really. My music dream was the sh-- 2 years ago before I was signed. It was everything I could ever imagine.

Gay Hip-Hop Site Launches?

While surfing the 'net today, we stumbled across a new hip-hop site geared toward the gay community. The site, Rap Gaydar, features categories such as "Ayo Lyricism," which calls out lyrics that may suggest some same sex lovin', "The Down Low" and "Pretty Pictures," and a tagline that reads: "We're here, we're queer, we're kicking flava in ya ear."

Interestingly enough, the new site's name/logo is pretty close to former XXL magazine Editor-in-Chief Elliott Wilson's new site Rap Radar. Coincidence? Is Wilson aware of this? Also, Gay Radar calls out recently defunct Vibe magazine and claims the publication was the first "openly gay hip-hop mag." Now, if they could just reveal the identity of the "gay rapper" ...

According to the St. John's Country Sheriff's office report, the 20-year-old dialed the emergency service and requested a police escort him to meet the rapper. Confused by the call, the operator asked "What is a little Wayne sir?" Kruse explained that Wayne was a rapper, mistakenly calling him Shawn Carter, which is Jay-Z's legal name. The operator continued to questions Kruse, "You want a police escort to take you to Miami?"

Ne-Yo to Aspiring Singer: Lose Weight if You Want to Be a Star

Singer/songwriter Ne-Yo recently advised an aspiring singer to drop a few pounds before trying to make it in the music business. The conversation between the R&B star and the unidentified woman finds Ne-Yo exposing the sad but very true restrictions in the entertainment industry.

The 29-year-old was informed that unless she wants to go the "Jill Scott route" or win an Oscar like Jennifer Hudson she's pretty much stuck. So for all you ladies out there thinking of merging into the same lane as a superstar like Beyonce, you can't compete with that extra meat on your bones, according to Ne-Yo.

Nivea and Lauren London Both Pregnant by Lil Wayne?



According to the blogosphere rumor mill, actress Lauren London and R&B singer Nivea are pregnant. Good news, right? Well, the plot thickens. It looks like both ladies are pregnant by rap star Lil Wayne. The Grammy Award-winning rapper became a father for the second time eight months ago when a mystery Cincinnati woman gave birth to Wayne's first son. He also has a 10-year-old daughter, Reginae, with ex-wife Antonia "Toya" Carter.

In addition to the pregnancy buzz, Wayne and Nivea are rumored to be getting married in the next few months. Nivea, who had a hit back in 2002 with her song 'Don't Mess With My Man,' is no stranger to celebrity matrimony. Nivea and producer-turned-performer The Dream tied the knot in 2005. The pair, who have three children together, filed for divorce just two years later. The Dream has since moved on and is engaged to singer Christina Milian.

T.I. to Pose Nude for PETA?

Even though rapper T.I. is currently "unavailable," he is still a much sought after entity. According to reports, the animal rights group, PETA, wants the Atlanta native to pose nude for their 'I'd Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur' campaign. "We're asking T.I. to use his fame and his experiences to bare the truth about the fur industry by baring his skin," said PETA Executive Vice President, Tracy Reiman.

Aside from releasing a statement, the organization also tried the pin pal approach. "We read that you looked to Martha Stewart for advice on how to pass your prison time," read the letter sent to Tip while he is in prison. "Did you know that she agreed to narrate an anti-fur public service announcement for PETA because she experienced firsthand what it is like for the millions of minks, rabbits, and other animals who are confined to filthy sheds on fur farms?

"But unlike inmates, who are freed when they finish their sentences, these animals are beaten, have their necks broken, are electrocuted, and are often skinned alive for their fur. We hope that you'll follow Martha's compassionate example and become involved with our anti-fur efforts."
