Here’s A Tip — Don’t Ask For One

Posted by Fresh on July 31, 2008

tipdre1 Heres A Tip Dont Ask For One

Don’t blame Andre 3000 for being a tight wad with his wallet, blame this damn recession!

Atlanta waiter Matt Moore claims that he went out of his way to hook Andre up with some vegan dishes after the rapper visited the restaurant he works in — even though it is non-vegan. Apparently, that effort wasn’t enough and Andre decided to complain anyways — getting his bill reduced in the process. At the end of the meal, the low-baller left a $0 tip and walked away. Classy.

What’s a guy to do? eBay! Moore was understandably pissed and threw his story up on the auction site, along with a description of the injustice and the offending receipt. “The chef had tried to please them with original dishes and took time out of the busy dinner to customize a meal for them,” he wrote. “Despite the spot-on service and super-catered food, they felt the need to leave me no money. I had nothing to do with the food, yet he stiffed me.” [source via SR]

I was going to play my role as a stan and defend Three Stacks to the bitter end but this is way past dirty. I’ve been in the food service industry before so I know what if feels like to be short changed when its tip time. I will keep my horror stories of revenge to myself but trust and believe that some servers are not as kind as others. You’ll be surprised at how many actually remember you from your previous visit.

Rosario Dawson Rosario Dawson

Every time a new picture of Rosario Dawson pops up on the front page of an image service I cross my fingers and hope that one will display her eyes in full wonk. I’ve been coming up short lately but I will always have memories. Its only a matter of time before she slips up. I will be waiting in the shadows until then.

Rosario along with Rosie Perez, Dakota Fanning [don't hate] and Luda, excuse me, Christopher Bridges attended the HFPA’s Annual Installation Luncheon on Wednesday night. Rosie should’ve set that bitch off with her dance from “Do The Right Thing.”

Barack Obama supporter Ludacrest is currently being blasted by the presidential hopeful’s campaign for spitting a “outrageously offensive” rhyme about Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, Republican Sen. John McCain and President Bush on his song “Politics as Usual.”

Armani’s Latest Muse

soloicon Armanis Latest Muse

Being “different” is really paying off for Solange. She has found another way to supplement her wig crypt income by becoming an ambassador for fashion powerhouse Armani’s younger diffusion line, Armani Jeans. Let me hold something then!

“Armani Jeans expresses my vision of a young, independent, casual lifestyle with a strong and cool, fashion sensibility. Solange epitomizes this style perfectly and brings to it that swing so evident in her new single, I Decided,” Giorgio Armani commented on his newest muse. [source]

Girl, you such a fashion icon. She should be able to buy plenty Warhols and whatever other type of artsy fartsy things she likes to collect with that cake.

Sorry for the back to back clips and double coverage of Angela Simmons but . . . well, you’ll understand after you watch this. I can’t wait to read the comments about this one. That’s all I am going to say.

Your Daily Tang Multivitamin

Posted by Fresh on July 30, 2008

On very few rare occasions do I feel an almost immediate “friend in the head” connection with people so I almost wet myself a la Fergie when I came across Drama Dupree’s brand spankin’ new YouTube channel earlier this morning. You already know how much I love and support the kids so I shot him an email begging to use his future videos as Daily Tang Multivitamin material and he said yes!

So without further adieu I say dust, coke, base, soap, grab that queen around her throat! Enjoy.

You may think that its too late for all of this fever to be unleash but it’s 3pm somewhere in the world. Gary Dourdan went bobbing for crack pipes in Ibiza with a pretty young thang. Try not to get too caught up in the rapture kids.

Stop and Think!

ross Stop and Think! plies 1 Stop and Think!

Mmm…another fine day in Crunkland. It just gives you that joyous feeling, like when you find a dollar under the passenger seat of your car and know that you can now snag a 5-piece nugget from Mickey D’s.

Anyway, it is Kid Fury here again. I decided to come to you all today, because this whole Rick Ross/Plies fraudulence nonsense has got me to thinking. Basically, I’ve been asking myself and others, “Who gives a damn?”. I mean, I still don’t see what the big deal is about Ross being an ex-officer of the law. If you all knew how many Negroes down here work in criminal justice and still go out and show their ass, you probably wouldn’t give a shit either. As far as Plies goes — how many rappers don’t lie about being goons? Enough said.

I can think of a million topics that are far more pertinent these days than two rappers fibbing about their pasts. Due to the fact that real life has been rough for me these past few weeks, I thought I would drop a few notes on what folks should really be worried about.

YouTube Clip of the Day – - Again!

Posted by Fresh on July 30, 2008

I’ve never posted the same video two days in a row but I want to be sure that everybody has an opportunity to participate in Rev. Emory’s Holy Ghost leg lunges.

I can’t and I won’t but I will make a seed offering so that the man of God can invest in another Columbian cocaine white suit. His outfit takes casket sharp to a new level.

A Special Faces From The Milk Carton Report

Posted by Fresh on July 30, 2008

D’Angelo’s former manager revealed in the August 2008 issue of Spin magazine that the video for “Untitled” was to blame for the downward spiral of both his career and personal life.

I blamed Angie Stone for giving him the “until you do right by me everything you think about is going to fail” curse but I will leave the rest of that conversation for another day.

dangelo A Special Faces From The Milk Carton Report“We couldn’t get through one song before women would start to scream for him to take off something” says Hargrove. “It wasn’t about the music. All they wanted was for him to take off his clothes.”

The cat calls had an undeniable effect on D’Angelo. “He’d get angry and started breaking sh*t,” Thompson remembers. “The audience thinking, “f*ck your art, I wanna see your ass!” made him angry”.

For D’Angelo, who, as Trenier puts it, “isn’t a sexy dude” but a “real musician who wears glasses and plays video games,” the objectification appeared to do lasting damage.

“I didn’t realize how vulnerable he was or how deep his issues ran.” Says Leeds. “He’s cursed now with fretting over how much of his fan base is because of how he looked as opposed to his music. It took away his confidence, because he’s not convinced why any given fan is supporting him.
