WTFlocka?! A Pico Rivera, Calif. male, Anthony Garcia, 25, Rivera-13 gang member, got himself a one-way ticket to prison for murder, thanks to his brazen chest tattoo depicting him murdering his rival, John Juarez.
In 2004, Garcia in cold-blooded murder shot Juarez in front of a liquor store. His chest tattoo illustrates the murder scene in full detail. Garcia, also known as Chopper, has himself depicted as a helicopter aiming bullets at, Mr. Peanut, which is a known alias for Juarez’s gang.
If you’re a traditional Hip-Hop fan and you’re confused on Kreayshawn’s dubious success, you may love San Diego rapper Princess Leah’s latest diss-track: “F The White Girl Mob Starring Kreayshawn.” What gives this song more legitimacy is the beef comes from a fellow White rapper. Princess Leah doesn’t hold back on her penmanship skills either to lecture the Bay area White Girl Mob artist (for those that don’t know: Kreayshawn lays the questions to rest, she’s not a rapper, she’s an artist).

C.O.B. Brooklyn emcee, CEF Allah, short for Can’t Expect Favors, has brought his own version of “Otis” but with another more recent soul singer, Lee Fields. The track sampled is Lee Fields’s “My World,” produced by Take Flight.
It really has been looking like our favorite Barbados singer, Rihanna, is living la vida loca a little too hard. GN$F! really took notice she was hitting rock bottom when the singer was at Coachella when hanging after-hours with Snoop Dogg and Warren G. The photo they tweeted just screamed for help. And how gross was it to see the rappers fawning over the R&B princess when she was clearly under the influence – ignorant immaturity that plagues Hip-Hop. SMDH.
Rihanna was taken to the ER and hospitalized following Monday night’s Met Gala in New York.
The Umbrella singer tweeted a pic of herself hooked on an IV, MediaTakeOut reported, adding she was discharged shortly thereafter and sent back to Los Angeles, where she owns a home.
The 24-year-old singer makes no bones about her fast-living, party-hard lifestyle, frequently tweeting images of herself enjoying the nightlife and all of its’ accruements.
“Rihanna loves to party but this past month she’s gotten really out of control,” a source tells the new issue of Star magazine. “She’s been drinking almost everyday and talking about smoking weed a lot, too.” Read More

Damn, Adam Yauch A.K.A. MCA, member of the Beastie Boys, one of the greatest hip-hop acts, has died. He was 47 years old.
The Brooklyn-born musician known to fans as MCA was first treated for cancerous growths in his parotid gland and a lymph node in 2009 and subsequently underwent surgery and radiation therapy, which forced the delay of the Beastie Boys’ most recent album Hot Sauce Committee Part Two. His illness has also kept the group off the road, and Yauch missed the group’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame two weeks ago.
A vocalist and bass player, Yauch co-founded the group in 1979 along with “Mike D” Diamond and Adam “Ad-Rock” Horowitz. Their music was an innovative hybrid of hardcore punk and hip-hop. Albums like Licensed to Ill, Paul’s Boutique, Check Your Head and Hello Nasty cemented their place among the most popular acts of the last 25 years. They reportedly sold more than 20 million albums domestically and 4o million worldwide.

Hello,
After more than 20 years, I’ve finally decided to tell the world what I witnessed in 1991, which I believe was one of the biggest turning point in popular music, and ultimately American society. I have struggled for a long time weighing the pros and cons of making this story public as I was reluctant to implicate the individuals who were present that day. So I’ve simply decided to leave out names and all the details that may risk my personal well being and that of those who were, like me, dragged into something they weren’t ready for. Read More
The primary logo — that far-left, blacked-out shield with “NETS” and a B-emblazoned basketball in the crest, zealously called “the new badge of Brooklyn” by a very optimistic Nets CEO Brett Yormark — was designed by part-owner and hip-hop legend Jay-Z, one of the most famous and successful musicians ever to come out of Brooklyn.

KIMYE, as the pair Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are now known as, were out on a date. When they exited the car, Kanye’s skinny but saggin’ jeans started to fall beyond the crotch area. Paparazzi caught all of it on digital film. Looks like Kanye is rocking the briefs.
