THE FADER HONORS THE LEGACY OF AALIYAH
The Fader pays tribute to the late Aaliyah in its annual Icon issue. The issue features contributions from both professional and personal friends.
“It only took Aaliyah a few albums to make an indelible mark on the world of pop music, but today her influence can be felt across numerous genres,” said Chris Richards, Executive Editor of The Fader. “This issue not only tracks that influence, but also offers a more personal glimpse into the life of a true pop visionary.”
5-0 Is Looking For Soulja Girl
Police in Atlanta’s public transportation have issued a warrant for the arrest of a young woman known as “Soulja Girl” after she was seen violently rebuking an elderly woman on a subway line.
The woman was seen screaming on the train at the elderly woman while reciting lyrics to the rapper Soulja Boy.
The woman is seen on a widely-viewed video screaming, “Yaaa, n***a, yaaa” and “I’ma beat you’re a** on this train.”
She also called the senior citizen a hoe and a b***h and threatened to kill her.
Wanda Y. Dunham, the chief of police for Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA), issued a statement requesting help in arresting the female.
AllHipHop.com confirmed with a MARTA representative that the person in the video is indeed the same person sought by police.
Girl, You So Creative!
Was she pouring out her raw emotion for tips? If so, she could’ve saved her energy. She didn’t make enough money to buy a Big N’ Tasty with cheese.

I still stand by my statement that I would rather listen to Nelly read the little paper that comes in a box of tampons warning women about the dangers of toxic shock syndrome over a Jazze Phizzle producizzle than listen to her music, but I will give her a hand clap for trying. Thanks Kim for bringing this gift of Virgo to my world.
More recent flicks of Ashanti after the jump.
Faces From The Milk Carton
This week has been full of folks who I thought went back to Africa with Marcus Garvey! The only possible come back that will leave me in shock and awe at this point in MC Breed. Oh wait . . .
Charli Baltimore was last spotted working as a hostess at a South Carolina Denny’s back in 2005 [1] so imagine my surprise when I saw pictures of her at XXL editor Datwon Thomas’ birthday party last night. Let’s see if her “much anticipated” album drops before 2012.
More flicks from the party, including Melyssa Ford’s wonky wig, after the jump!
[1] I’m making this up of course but don’t be surprised if she ever tells this to Jamie Foster Brown in an interview.
Just Plain Disturbing
Michael K is the lace front glue to my hairline. He always echoes my most inner thoughts on pop culture fuckery. Get out of dreams and into my car!
Have you been looking for the perfect tacky ass outfit for your 6-year-old daughter to work the ho track in? Well, House of Derriere has the answer to all your problems! Beyonce and Mama Knowles really do think about the needs of everyone.
PopGumbo had this to say about this Dereon Girls ad ,“What is the next ad going to look like? Babies wearing gold metallic bikinis while five-year old boys throw Monopoly money on them.” Shhhh! Shush it! Don’t give Mama Knowles any ideas. She probably loves that concept, but she’ll make the babies pose on top of a Bentley.
This mess needs to be investigated by Chris Hansen and the rest of his Dateline NBC goon squad.
After the photo shoot Baby Daniel slide his number to all of the girls and said “Call me so I can make it juicy for ya.” Lick the rapper’s nephew.
Something In The Milk Ain’t Clean
Jesus be a phone call to local law enforcement to tip them off about the meth lab in Stephen Baldwin’s backyard, amen.
Although he claims to a have found Shesus Khryst after 9/11, the youngest Baldwin brother looks like he has been drinking wine out of Pastor Thomas Week’s communion/pimp goblet. Wilona Woods, you better watch the company you keep. Stephen will have your ass drunk dialing K-Ci talking about “I will let it go if you let it go.”
YouTube Clip of the Day
. . . not today. Thanks Blogxilla for hurting my feelings.
I’m Just Saying . . .
“It’s rare that you get a movie made about you when you’re still relevant, but [they] took on the challenge,” Combs said of the cast, adding that he was especially impressed with actor Derek Luke, who is playing Diddy. “People asked me years ago who you’d want to play me, and I said Derek Luke … so it was just destined. I got to see him do his thing, and it was scary for me. I had to leave, ’cause he was acting just like me.” [source]
Derek stills needs more people and a signed affidavit from Denzel Washington. And am I wrong for being more interested in which actress will portray Misa Hilton-Brim in all of her platinum blonde glory? I vote Sisqo! That girl isn’t afraid of bleaching her locks.
