Aaron McGruder
I must say that when I first started hearing a buzz about Aaron McGruder I wasn’t particularly moved (I still wore colored contacts for Pete’s sake…but that’s a whole other subject). So the more that I heard the more interested I was. The adventures of brothers Huey and Riley, the main characters of his comic strip and now animated series “The Boondocks” give a voice to thoughts and feelings that if not most of us have had. Mcgruder mixes humor with strong imagery and vocabulary to get across his point or at the very least to open up dialogue. Although I read the strip I didn’t catch on to the series on the Cartoon Network cus I NEVER knew when it was on. I’ve only caught 1 episode…EVER. Wanna know which one it is?
Ha!!! I saw this and laughed my lil Nigra booty off. Everytime I think of Uncle Rukus I think of a certain Aunt of mine (who shall remain nameless) that would do things like tell my sister (who’s a beautiful shade of brown) “See, Lolo can go outside cus she’s yella. But you, well you’re already dark so you better stay outta the sun.” Sighs…
Anywho, let’s celebrate Mr. McGruder today for taking chances and being bold enough to capture the black urban experience.

I bet you $3 and a pack of Now ‘N Laters that these kids are no more than 16 or 17 years old. Someone needs to go down in the basement and stop their little cousin from getting knocked up. Actually, scratch that. It’s too late. As hard as these two are grindin’ she’s most definately pregnant.
And little boy! Where did you learn all those nasticle moves? Layin’ down doin the 1-2 pump with simalac still on his breath. Oh, and you guessed it…this isn’t the only video he’s made…there are more. For Pete’s sake, Jesus take the wheel! PS-this ain’t for the chilluns to be watchin’. I don’t want y’all gettin’ ANY ideas. See you in prayer meeting on Monday night.

So there may be trouble in paradise for our friend New York and her fiancé Tailor Made. Check out what the New York Post had to say about a recent encounter they had:
February 2, 2008 — IT looks like “I Love New York” bimbo Tiffany Pollard, nicknamed “New York” on the reality show, still hasn’t found her Prince Charming. She and her latest suitor, Taylor Made (real name: George Weisgerber), fought publicly all night at the opening of new 27th Street lounge Suzie Wong’s. After she pointed her finger in his face and yelled at him in front of Shanna Moakler, Simon Rex and Bethenny Frankel inside the club, the duo continued squabbling outside, where Weisgerber head-butted Pollard in the face. “She flipped out,” said our spy.

Whenever I think of head butting I’m both amused and horrified. I feel like head butting is the work of a psycho. I don’t care if there’s a way that you can do it so that you don’t hurt yourself. Actually ramming your head into someone elses is plain crazy. It’s bad enough he goes around spitting on people but to head butt someone? A woman? His fiancé? Crazy! Crazy! Crazy! I really hope this story isn’t true…but if it is I want video footage.

During a Pre-Super Bowl party that both 50 cent and Paris Hilton attended, the rapper made the heiress cry. He gave her a shout out during his set and when she hopped up from the crowd to share the stage with him he told her, “Get the fu@k off the stage!” She apparently left the stage crying.
Cue the world’s smallest violin. I spit out my Poland Springs when I first heard this cus it’s so damn funny. Then I felt embarrassed for her…for like a second. After which, I returned to my hysterical laughter.
Update: Fiddy denies kicking Paris off of the stage. Bossip

Wacko Jacko’s kids were recently photographed sans masks…well that is except for Prince…he’s apparently picking up some of his dad’s bad habits and was covering up.
Anyway, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Dem chilluns ain’t his. Well not in blood anyway. He’s ‘taken care’ of them their whole lives so something’s to be said about that. But as far as actually fathering them Lo votes no. Niambi, you’re the gene expert, back me up on this. I vaguely recall from the semester of genetics that I took that there’s something about dominant genes and something else and chromosomes and traits or whatever but basically Negroid genes like big round snonk noses and kinky hair will present themselves in some way shape or form when mixed with no-Negroid genes. And even if one child some how doesn’t exhibit those genes there’s no WAY in holy hell all of them will escape that fate. Right?
Ah well. I guess it doesn’t really matter. Maybe Jacko is easin up on them…or maybe they’re staging a rebellion. Either way its nice to see them walking around without their veils.
