March 9th will be 14 years since the death of Christopher Wallace, better known as The Notorious B.I.G. and it is yet to be solved. However, new evidence that has been brought to light may show what many have thought all along… that the LAPD was involved.
A wrongful death suit was filed against the city of Los Angeles in 2005 by Voletta Wallace accusing the LAPD of hiding evidence that 2 of their officers were involved in the fatal shooting. Now new evidence may be outing former LAPD officers David Mack and Rafael Perez along with Suge Knight!
According to the evidence, an unnamed inmate, who later shared a cell with Rafael Perez, claims Perez told him that he was working security at the Peterson Museum on the night Biggie was shot, and that he made a phonecall when Biggie left the party, to inform Mack that the Bad Boy rapper was sitting inside a vehicle outside the museum.”The federal judge in the case writes that the inmate reported that Perez had told him about his and [Officer David] Mack’s involvement with Death Row Records and their activities at the Petersen Automotive Museum the night of Biggie Smalls’ murder,”California news station KCAL9 reports, calling the new info “potentially explosive evidence.” (Boombox.com)
This evidence was never presented by the lead investigator and as for those two officers… well, Perez and Mack just happened to be on Death Row’s payroll as well as had involvement in an $800,000 cocaine heist. Both of those findings ended their careers.
Let’s hope something actually comes of this new evidence and we can finally get some closure to this case!

When we saw the commercials for Oprah’s interview with author and life coach Iyanla Vanzant, it looked like it was going to be juicy. Well, it didn’t disappoint. For a year and a half, Iyanla was a regular on Oprah as a “teacher of spiritual laws and principles,” but she abruptly stopped making appearances over 11 years ago. Iylanla wrote a book in 2010 called Peace From Broken Pieces about her split with Harpo among other things. Oprah decided it was time to have Iyanla back on the show to hash it all out. Their convo was frank; just as it would be between two former friends trying to mend fences. Turns out like many fractured relationships, there was miscommunication. It was an awkward convo. Here’s how it all went down.
Iyanla Really Just Wanted Oprah To Like Her
Iyanla came right out and said that she loved Oprah, but felt that Oprah never really liked her. Well, Oprah used to give her whole show to Iyanla and sit in the audience because she thought Iyanla was so gifted. Oprah clasped Iyanla’s hands and said, “What did you think that meant? I let you take the stage!” Iyanla thought that Oprah only wanted her work, but didn’t care about her as a person. Iyanla laid her insecurities right out there for America to take a look, which was brave. However, it was a bit uncomfortable to see how desperate she is for Oprah’s approval.
No One Puts Oprah In A Corner
Barbara Walters offered Iyanla a show. However, Oprah and her people had already been developing a show for Iyanla, but it wasn’t going to happen for a while. Iyanla said that she fasted and prayed about what do. God told her that it “was the anointed time” for the Iyanla show. So Iyanla went to Ms. O and told her that she’d gotten an offer “from someone big” to do the show now. Oprah thought Iyanla was giving her an ultimatum: Do the show now or I’ll go elsewhere. Well, Oprah don’t play that. She wasn’t about to do Iyanla’s show until she got good and ready. Ms. Winfrey did not get to where she is by backing down. And truthfully her ego was probably a little bruised that Iyanla was considering leaving. So she showed Ms. Iyanla the door. Iyanla says she wasn’t giving Oprah an ultimatum, and expressed her desire to stay at Harpo. Whatever you believe, this meeting ended their association.
Iyanla Wanted Guidance
Iyanla felt that nobody told her that she wasn’t developed enough to do her own show. Oprah felt that she DID tell Iyanla that. Iyanla felt that Oprah was just that saying Harpo wasn’t prepared to do the show. They went back and forth on this one for a while. However, Oprah probably didn’t realize that Iyanla was seeking guidance. After all, it seemed like Iyanla had received guidance from above. And was it really Oprah’s job to guide Iyanla? Iyanla was a grown woman with a distinguished career. As Oprah said, “You knew what you were doing when you walked in that room and you had the intetion to force our hand.” Iyanla went ahead and took the offer from Barbara Walters. Well, it turned out no one was ready to do the show because when Barbara Walters picked up the Iyanla show, it flopped.
Barbara Walters is Shady (According to Iyanla)
Iyanla revealed that she didn’t have an office or any control over her own show. The producers of the Iyanla show had not even read any of her books. It seemed her show was doomed to fail. Iyanla said that she felt like Babs was just trying to steal her away from Oprah. However, Iyanla did take responsibility for her part saying that she shouldn’t have tolerated the negative treatment from the folks on the Iyanla Show. Iyanla later realized that taking the deal with Barbara Walters was part of her pattern of aligning herself with people that treat her badly. She said that she wasn’t able to receive the good things that Oprah was offering because of her own emotional hangups

Superstar singer Rihanna, who was booked for months to sing for Trump and others in Palm Beach at a gala at Mar-a-Lago on Saturday night, canceled that morning, claiming to have bronchitis, according to The Palm Beach Post’s Jose Lambiet.
But Rihanna was actually spending the weekend in Southern California, where she was pushing her new fragrance, Reb’l Fleur, at Macy’s and doing some full-throated singing as part of the half-time show at Sunday night’s NBA All-Star game.
But now it looks like Trump is capable of getting pushed around by a 23-year-old female pop star from Barbados. “For Rihanna to go to the All-Star game and perform after she told us she was sick, that is just a lack of respect."

Here's the story: Early this week 50 Cent jumped on Twitter to announce "Jimmy Iovine and Dre mad at me cause I’m doing Sleek by 50," (a new line of Headphones) he tweeted. "I guess I’m not going to be on Detox Lol."
Then later, 50 tweeted this: "Would you faint if I told you I just wrote a verse about jimmy and dre. Oh my god this is hard. This shit gonna kill."
When a TMZ cameraman ambushed Dr Dre and asked him if he is in fact angry with 50, all Dre had to say was this: "I never heard of his headphones." #ImDone! (Chris Brown voice)

It’s so loud Inside my head
With words that I should have said!
As I drown in my regrets
I can’t take back the words I never said
I can’t take back the words I never said
[Lupe Fiasco]
I really think the war on terror is a bunch of bullshit
Just a poor excuse for you to use up all your bullets
How much money does it take to really make a full clip
9/11 building 7 did they really pull it
Uhh, And a bunch of other cover ups
Your childs future was the first to go with budget cuts
If you think that hurts then, wait here comes the uppercut
The school was garbage in the first place, thats on the up and up
Keep you at the bottom but tease you with the uppercrust
You get it then they move you so you never keeping up enough
If you turn on TV all you see’s a bunch of “what the f-cks”
Dude is dating so and so blabbering bout such and such
And that aint Jersey Shore, homie thats the news
And these the same people that supposed to be telling us the truth
Limbaugh is a racist, Glenn Beck is a racist
Gaza strip was getting bombed, Obama didn’t say shit
Thats why I aint vote for him, next one either
I’ma part of the problem, my problem is I’m peaceful
And I believe in the people.
[Skylar Grey - Chorus]
It’s so loud inside my head
With words that I should have said!
As I drown in my regrets
I can’t take back the words I never said
I can’t take back the words I never said
[Lupe Fiasco - Verse 2]
Now you can say it aint our fault if we never heard it
But if we know better than we probably deserve it
Jihad is not a holy war, wheres that in the worship?
Murdering is not Islam!
Lupe Fiasco Words I Never Said lyrics found on http://www.directlyrics.com/lupe-fiasco-words-i-never-said-lyrics.html
And you are not observant
And you are not a muslim
Israel don’t take my side cause look how far you’ve pushed them
Walk with me into the ghetto, this where all the Kush went
Complain about the liquor store but what you drinking liquor for?
Complain about the gloom but when’d you pick a broom up?
Just listening to Pac aint gone make it stop
A rebel in your thoughts, aint gon make it halt
If you don’t become an actor you’ll never be a factor
Pills with million side effects
Take em when the pains felt
Wash them down with Diet soda!
Killin off your brain cells
Crooked banks around the World
Would gladly give a loan today
So if you ever miss payment
They can take your home away!
[Skylar Grey - Chorus]
It’s so loud inside my head
With words that I should have said!
As I drown in my regrets
I can’t take back the words I never said, never said
I can’t take back the words I never said
[Lupe Fiasco - Verse 3]
I think that all the silence is worse than all the violence
Fear is such a weak emotion thats why I despise it
We scared of almost everything, afraid to even tell the truth
So scared of what you think of me, I’m scared of even telling you
Sometimes I’m like the only person I feel safe to tell it to
I’m locked inside a cell in me, I know that there’s a jail in you
Consider this your bailing out, so take a breath, inhale a few
My screams is finally getting free, my thoughts is finally yelling through
[Skylar Grey - Chorus]
It’s so loud Inside my head
With words that I should have said!
As I drown in my regrets
I can’t take back the words I never said

I'm about to lose my mind
You've been gone for so long
I'm running out of time
I need a doctor
Call me a doctor
I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life
[Eminem]
I told the world, one day I would pay it back.
Say it on tape and lay it, record it, so that one day I could play it back.
But I don't even know if I believe it when I'm saying that.
Doubt startin' to creep in, everyday it's just so grey and black.
Hope, I just need a ray of that
'Cause no one sees my vision
When I play it for 'em, they just say it's wack.
But they don't know what dope is.
And I don't know if I was awake or asleep when I wrote this.
All I know is you came to me when I was at my lowest.
You picked me up, breathed new life in me. I owe my life to you.
Before the life of me, I don't see why you don't see like I do.
But it just dawned on me; you lost a son. See this light in you? It's dark.
Let me turn on the lights and brighten me and enlighten you.
I don't think you realize what you mean to me, not the slightest clue.
'Cause me and you, we're like a crew. I was like your sidekick.
You gon' either wanna fight when I get off this f-cking mic,
Or you gon' hug me. But I'm out of options, there's nothing else I can do cause...
[Chorus]
I'm about to lose my mind
You've been gone for so long
I'm running out of time
I need a doctor
Call me a doctor
I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life
[Eminem]
It hurts when I see you struggle.
You come to me with ideas.
You say that these are pieces, so I'm puzzled.
'Cause the sh-t I hear is crazy,
But you're either getting lazy, or you don't believe in you no more.
Seems like your own opinions, not one you can form.
Can't make a decision, you keep questioning yourself,
Second guessing, and it's almost like your begging for my help.
Like, I'm YOUR leader.
You're supposed to f-cking be MY mentor.
I can endure no more!
I demand you remember who you are!
It was YOU, who believed in me,
When everyone was telling you, don't sign me.
Everyone at the f-cking label, lets tell the truth.
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/i-need-a-doctor-lyrics-eminem.html ]
You risked your career for me, I know it as well as you.
Nobody wanted to f-ck with the white boy...
Dre, I'm crying in this booth.
You saved my life, now maybe it's my time to save yours.
But I can never repay you, what you did for me is way more.
But I ain't giving up faith, and you ain't giving up on me.
Get up Dre! I'm dying, I need you, come back for f-ck's sake
[Chorus]
I'm about to lose my mind
You've been gone for so long
I'm running out of time
I need a doctor
Call me a doctor
I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life
[Dr Dre]
It literally feels like a lifetime ago
But I still remember the sh-t like it was just yesterday though
You walked in, yellow jump suit
Whole room, cracked jokes
Once you got inside the booth, told you, like smoke
Went through friends, some of them I put on
But they just left, they said was riding to the death
But where the f-ck are they now
Now that I need them, I don't see none of them
All I see is Slim
F-ck all you fairweather friends
All I need is him
F-cking backstabbers
When the chips were down, you just laughed at us
Now you bout to feel the f-cking wrath of aftermath, faggots
You gon' see us in our lab jackets and ask where the f-ck we been?
You can kiss my indecisive ass crack maggots and the crackers ass
Little cracker jack beat making wack math,
Backwards producers, I'm back bastards
One more CD and then I'm packing up my bags and as I leave
And I guarantee they'll scream, Dre don't leave us like that man cause...
[Chorus]
Im about to lose my mind
You've been gone for so long
I'm running out of time
I need a doctor
Call me a doctor
I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
Shout out to Jermaine Wilson for posting this mess on his facebook! Now I can't get it out my head!
I'm sittin here listening to the radio and just heard J.Lo's new single.....Wait! do she even go by J.Lo anymore? Anyway I'm listening to this single and I'm kinda liking it because of Pitbull, he owned the beat (sorry Jennifer). I see it as a dancing track at the club, the beat is in a fast pace & you can get your dance on.
I really don't care to much for Jennifer's part, if you're a J.Lo fan I guess this one's for you. Other then that, I must say it was Pitbull's verse that pulled me in.
The circumstances of Fort Myers rapper Robert Crockett's arrest would be comical if the reformed delinquent didn't have so much to lose.
Crockett, aka "T.R.A.P.'', is scheduled to perform in the Florida Mixshow Music Summit on Feb. 25-26 at Newport Beachside Hotel/Resort in Miami Beach.
"He's a good-looking kid with star appeal,'' says Florida Mixshow Music promoter John Martinez.
Crockett, 23, was felony-free for five years and 17 days from his stairway to stardom when he stepped into the Fowler Firearms & Gun Range on Tuesday.
He rented a gun and practiced shooting.
Wonder what a felon is doing in a store with 500 guns? You are not alone.
"That is blatant disregard for the law,'' says gun store owner Tony Levene. "We've got cops in here all the time.''
Crockett's presence at the range was risky, but the practice shooter next to him, Fort Myers Police Officer Mary Ellen Hughes, was just plain bad luck.
"I went to shoot and standing next to me was Mr. Crockett,'' she says. "I was extremely surprised.''
They have a history. She remembered him from his felonious juvenile days.
Hughes checked Crockett's felon status and whether his rights were restored. Yes and no.
"I called for backup and we arrested him,'' Hughes says. "He was mad at me. I tried explaining I was just doing my job.''
Police charged Crockett with possession of a firearm by a felon. His bond was set at $500,000.
Leon Battle, Crockett's manager, says when his protege signed a waiver and passed an ID check, he believed he was good to shoot at the gun range.
"T.R.A.P. thought because they were juvenile charges that they wouldn't show up on his record,'' Battle says.
But Levene says he doesn't check backgrounds and doesn't know any gun range that does. A first-time shooter has to be 21.
"He filled out the waiver form, we checked his ID to make sure he was who he said he was and logged him into our system,'' Levene says. "That is his membership card.''
Mentor and promoter worry about his availability for the show. Until Tuesday, Crockett's rehabilitation was going well.
There was much to rehab for the wayward kid.
T.R.A.P. was better known for his rap sheet than his rap lyrics as a frequent juvenile offender.
"At one time, my brother had 14 felonies,'' says Lucreasie Wilson, 20. "He was so arrogant and cocky. He didn't want to listen.''
He was a bad man before he became a man.
Crockett was convicted of carjacking and aggravated fleeing and eluding as a 15-year-old and incarcerated for four years.
"He was a changed man when he got out of prison in 2006,'' Wilson says. "He stuck to his music.''
Battle, owner of Hellbound Entertainment since 1995, took Crockett under his wing and the talented young man thrived.
"We were improving his image,'' Battle says. "We have him out talking to troubled kids. He wears clothes that don't fall off him. For this to happen right now is horrible.''
Battle says if Crockett wins the talent contest, he scores a record deal with Slip n Slide records.
"T.R.A.P. is real good and should make the finals,'' Martinez says. "If he gets a contract, I hope he doesn't have to do any jail time.''
There's the rub.
Officer Hughes says if Crockett is convicted, the minimum-mandatory sentence is three years. His arraignment is Monday.
I asked Fort Myers attorney John Mills, who is not representing Crockett, on what legal ground does the the rapper stand.
"Quicksand, basically,'' Mills says. "If you're a felon, you're not supposed to have a gun. It doesn't matter if you buy it, rent it, borrow it or find it.''
Crockett's sticky situation doesn't look good, but there are extenuating circumstances.
His venture into the gun shop and range was an act of stupidity, not a premeditated crime.
His misstep was colossal, but it shouldn't negate the progress he has made in the past five years.
His ridiculously high bond needs to be reduced to allow for his appearance at the Mixshow.
This case needs a savvy defense lawyer, an understanding prosecutor and a sympathetic judge.
He was irresponsible.
He was unlucky.
But he was felony-free.
He needs a break.
Worst-case scenario:
Rap stars are not strangers to prison. Think of the material T.R.A.P. will have when he gets out.
Crockett, aka "T.R.A.P.'', is scheduled to perform in the Florida Mixshow Music Summit on Feb. 25-26 at Newport Beachside Hotel/Resort in Miami Beach.
"He's a good-looking kid with star appeal,'' says Florida Mixshow Music promoter John Martinez.
Crockett, 23, was felony-free for five years and 17 days from his stairway to stardom when he stepped into the Fowler Firearms & Gun Range on Tuesday.
He rented a gun and practiced shooting.
Wonder what a felon is doing in a store with 500 guns? You are not alone.
"That is blatant disregard for the law,'' says gun store owner Tony Levene. "We've got cops in here all the time.''
Crockett's presence at the range was risky, but the practice shooter next to him, Fort Myers Police Officer Mary Ellen Hughes, was just plain bad luck.
"I went to shoot and standing next to me was Mr. Crockett,'' she says. "I was extremely surprised.''
They have a history. She remembered him from his felonious juvenile days.
Hughes checked Crockett's felon status and whether his rights were restored. Yes and no.
"I called for backup and we arrested him,'' Hughes says. "He was mad at me. I tried explaining I was just doing my job.''
Leon Battle, Crockett's manager, says when his protege signed a waiver and passed an ID check, he believed he was good to shoot at the gun range.
"T.R.A.P. thought because they were juvenile charges that they wouldn't show up on his record,'' Battle says.
But Levene says he doesn't check backgrounds and doesn't know any gun range that does. A first-time shooter has to be 21.
"He filled out the waiver form, we checked his ID to make sure he was who he said he was and logged him into our system,'' Levene says. "That is his membership card.''
Mentor and promoter worry about his availability for the show. Until Tuesday, Crockett's rehabilitation was going well.
There was much to rehab for the wayward kid.
T.R.A.P. was better known for his rap sheet than his rap lyrics as a frequent juvenile offender.
"At one time, my brother had 14 felonies,'' says Lucreasie Wilson, 20. "He was so arrogant and cocky. He didn't want to listen.''
He was a bad man before he became a man.
Crockett was convicted of carjacking and aggravated fleeing and eluding as a 15-year-old and incarcerated for four years.
"He was a changed man when he got out of prison in 2006,'' Wilson says. "He stuck to his music.''
Battle, owner of Hellbound Entertainment since 1995, took Crockett under his wing and the talented young man thrived.
"We were improving his image,'' Battle says. "We have him out talking to troubled kids. He wears clothes that don't fall off him. For this to happen right now is horrible.''
Battle says if Crockett wins the talent contest, he scores a record deal with Slip n Slide records.
"T.R.A.P. is real good and should make the finals,'' Martinez says. "If he gets a contract, I hope he doesn't have to do any jail time.''
There's the rub.
Officer Hughes says if Crockett is convicted, the minimum-mandatory sentence is three years. His arraignment is Monday.
I asked Fort Myers attorney John Mills, who is not representing Crockett, on what legal ground does the the rapper stand.
"Quicksand, basically,'' Mills says. "If you're a felon, you're not supposed to have a gun. It doesn't matter if you buy it, rent it, borrow it or find it.''
Crockett's sticky situation doesn't look good, but there are extenuating circumstances.
His venture into the gun shop and range was an act of stupidity, not a premeditated crime.
His misstep was colossal, but it shouldn't negate the progress he has made in the past five years.
His ridiculously high bond needs to be reduced to allow for his appearance at the Mixshow.

Here's my thoughts...to all the females (trust me I know some) who took Steve Harvey's book to be the Bible on relationships...I say HA! smh....
Lil' Kim has been in the rap game since 1996, bringing a seductive yet hardcore mix to the hip-hop world. She now has released her new single BLACK FRIDAY, a diss record to Nicki Minaj's Roman's Revenged & CLAP CLAP.
BLACK FRIDAY has that headbangin' beat, her words are direct #NoSubliminals. She gets down and direct with the purpose of this song. The one thing i don't like is the fact that she had to have a diss record to bring it back like she used to.
CLAP CLAP is another song on Kim's BLACK FRIDAY MIXTAPE also has a handbangin' beat, she bringing back that hood non-pop style of music. I'm def feelin this joint.
Simply put, whatever this man spit on, comes out 1000.

- LadyChelle Enterprisesllc I would buy it if it was just a regular lil Kim Cd but since its a Nicki dissed mixtape, ima save the money....from the two tracks i heard already...i get it i dont need to hear a whole cd of it for $10! (see both videos at www.FordEnt.Blogspot.com..
.#ShamelessPlug! lol) Tuesday at 12:40pm · - Tre' Davisok, it's all about ratings and sells, Lil kim isn't relevant anymore, and Nicki is the Hottest thing on the planet right now. So why not try to diss the best thing out so you can generate a buzz and pay some bills, Kim is 14 years in and sh...ouldn't need to go at it quite like this to be seen. She's no longer the baddest Trina slid Kim to the curb and took the Title. Seven Years later your just a famous as Mike tyson BARELY KNOW WHO YOU ARE UNTIL YOU DO SOME DUMB ISH!!! So there are no sides to take Nicki hot and we cop that, and Kim if you come up with something better that hate mail we'll support you, question was what do you think of the mixtape cover? wow, Kim has tore her arse with the fansSee MoreTuesday at 12:50pm · · 1 personLoading...
- LadyChelle EnterprisesllcI love you answer!! Love it Love it!
I personally dont think being 14 years in the game she needed to go in as hard on Nicki....at least not one mixtape full...one song..ok...but a whole mixtape? its starting to seem like you're reaching and... trying to hard!
lmaoooO at the Mike Tyson reference!!
Im still a Kim fan and i would buy her new album if she was to drop one today....but Nicki's is undoubtedly doin da dam thing right nowSee MoreTuesday at 12:54pm · · 2 peopleLoading... - Tre' Davis Therefore My daughter say I want to listen to Nicki and Lil Kim being mean to Nicki,in my baby voice" We luv nicki(rolling her head) Idk what she trying to do? Rotflmao KIm who?acting like I can't hear you, squinting my eyes, who?Tuesday at 1:05pm · · 1 personLoading...
- LadyChelle EnterprisesllcI see where you're coming from, which makes me realize another point...Kim being 14 years in, some of the younger generation aint really that familiar with her....she just made herself millions of Non-fans. One diss track or two, maybe..the...n people might tune in and realize, "ok she felt disrespected and had to respond" but a whole tape full PLUS a cover that says it all...then (younger) people might feel forced to choose sides and not support you...and the older generation (OMG THATS ME! DAM!) who is used to Kim dont wanna buy the tape coz we dont wanna hear a whole diss album....smh...
Dear Kim,
We love you! Please return to us!! With some original stuff!! We know Nicki tried you...and you a bit mad....but come back and show the world "THIS IS WHO KIM IS....THIS IS WHY IM THE QUEEN...STILL" with a hard album...the diss tape is not your coming home music we wanna rock to!
Sincerely,
We the PeopleSee MoreTuesday at 1:12pm · · 1 personYvonne Mitchell likes this. - LadyChelle Enterprisesllc But in my opinion, i LOVE that Kim's back!! LOVE IT! and I love that she came back hard! with no subliminals...she truly remains the queen in my opinion coz she has proven her longevity..Now she needs to really come back!!
