Has been rapper and recent reality TV star Vanilla Ice, whose real name is Robert Matthew Van Winkle, was arrested on Thursday night for allegedly hitting and kicking his wife. His wife Laura told a deputy that “He started yelling at me for going out to buy a bedroom set. In front of my daughter. I’m sorry I can’t say any more until I talk to an attorney.” Is he so hard up on cash that he would hit his wife for buying a household necessity? According to the Palm Beach Post, the 40-year old Winkle was charged with simple domestic battery and is being held at the Palm Beach County Jail.

Rapper Paperboy, whose real name is Mitchell Charles Johnson, was busted in Merced, California after the police found a small amount of pot and a prescription bottle not in his name after a traffic stop. Johnson was booked on misdemeanor charges of marijuana possession and transportation, illegal possession of prescriptions medication and driving on a suspended license. He has since been released after paying a $10,000 bail. If you don’t know about who exactly Paperboy is, well… I can’t tell you either. Oh wait, here’s something I remember – “Do the ditty if you want to … because then I can see if I want you.”

No, we’re not even going to get into the whole “he’s still alive argument”. The latest rumors include a published report that say Sean “Diddy” Combs was linked to the death of Tupac Shakur in 1994.
An article published in the L.A. Times says that Diddy and Christopher Wallace (Notorious B.I.G.) knew about Jimmy Henchman and James Sabatino’s plan to off Tupac. The death subsequently sparked a rap war between the coasts.
Diddy’s rep says, “This story is beyond ridiculous and is completely false. Neither Biggie nor I had any knowledge of any attack before, during, or after it happened. It is a complete lie to suggest that there was any involvement by Biggie or myself. I am shocked that the Los Angeles Times would be so irresponsible as to publish such a baseless and completely untrue story.”

It’s a case of is he or isn’t he. And more to the point; do we really care? But anyway, according to a rapper who has recently recorded with him, Eminem has not become fat as reports suggested.
Over Christmas, it was reported the former hip-hop don had been hospitalised in Detroit with a series of health complaints. It was also claimed that Marshall Mathers had ballooned in size to 250 pounds, putting his long-term health in jeopardy.
However, Trick Trick, who has enlisted Eminem and Dr Dre for his upcoming new album, says the allegations are wide of the mark.
“He’s nowhere (near) 250 pounds or anything like that. He picked up a little weight. He ain’t walkin’ around obese or some sh*t though. He can still run two miles if you want him to and still out-box the majority of them. My man still gets down”, explained Trick Trick.
Eminem is understood to have rapped and produced, alongside Dre, “Who Want It”, which is due for release later this year.

Rap icon Dr. Dre’s long-awaited new album will be his last. The revered hitmaker/producer plans to release “Detox” - his first album in seven years - in 2008. Hopefully it’s going to be another classic by dre. Its too bad he’s getting out because its a young mans game, he might be the only one left in the industry that could actually give something to the hip hop community worth listening to. X@@##! kanye, X@@##! 50, X@@##! all those studio gangsters that only care about making club hits. Dre’s gonna bring it back to the streets. We, firstly do not need rappers to enjoy senseless music, but if there is going to be around to decimate the young people of this country then we have to have some icons like Dre who could be looked up to as people who have created different music and shaped rap music. Not someone like Kanye and 50 Cent who can do no better than fight on the sales of their albums and sh*t that’s worse than sh*t itself.

Rap star Kanye West has beaten rival 50 Cent in their head-to-head battle to claim the UK’s best-selling album. The rappers entered the chart at numbers one and two respectively, while West’s single Stronger stayed ahead of 50 Cent’s song Ayo Technology. 50 Cent vowed that he would retire from making solo albums if outsold by West. I bet ya, this guy is not going to retire or anything, he will eat up his words, fall back and say he never meant to retire and will not accept defeat. These characteristics are what make him so hated; he got a big mouth and an empty heart and soul. He’s already started blaming his record company for not supporting him in promoting the album. He should simply retire and keep his words for once. Wait till the US charts are announced, then have a look at 50 Cent’s face, can’t say more than this coz it’s the one for the paparazzi to collect and showing weeping and sobbing like a kid whose been deprived of a lollipop.
