Rewind: K-Ci Electrifies The Stage

Posted by Fresh on December 14, 2009

You don’t need MaryJ. Blige or that shady queen Kendu to tell you that K-Ci’s life is one big say something nice challenge. Watching his on stage antics is like driving pass the scene of a bad car accident. You can’t help but look over, lower your head, and then say a silent prayer.

The reigning prince of rocks and blunts shared the stage with his brother JoJo, Dru Hill, Changing Faces, Troop, Blackstreet, Guy, and other R&B acts from the 90’s to perform at The Blast From The Past concert in Atlanta over the weekend. Exclusive Access has a ton of pics from the evening that will leave you wanting to sell your mama’s sofa.

Posted by J. Cooper on December 2, 2009

Our favorite Freshwater Beaver from Tappahannock, Virginia was transported to outer space to film a promotion video for his new release Graffiti set to be released on December 8th. Giving us absolute raw emotion served on a silver platter, the short video shows the Dam-building rodent reflecting on the “roller coaster” that is career. And you though Precious was a front-runner for an Oscar . . .

fan goggles Quick Flicks: This Is It Los Angeles Premiere

No, this is not one of Dwight Eubanks’ parties [*] in Atlanta although it sure as hell looked like it. These photos were taken at the premiere of Michael Jackson’s “This Is It” in Los Angeles. Directed by Kenny Ortega and released/distributed by Sony Pictures, this documentary is set to display the last dress rehearsals and behind-the-scenes happenings for Michael’s live performances at the O2 in London.

[*] Will Smith is looking a little worn in the face. Jada must have went up a size in the dildo.

Rewind: Mike Tyson Visits The Oprah Show

Posted by Fresh on October 12, 2009

I wasn’t able to catch Mike Tyson’s emotional sit down with Oprah when it aired earlier today but thanks to the magic of the internet and the hard work from the Rap Radar team [rip game proper] I won’t have to miss a beat. I’m a little hesitant to watch the interview because, well, I know I will end up revealing my inner raw creole emotion. Today’s a fucking holiday, I can’t be bothered.

The interview was ostensibly a commercial for James Toback’s “Tyson” documentary, but there were some interesting moments—like when he told the story of his first fight, against a bully who killed one of his pet pigeons. (For real.) He choked up when talking about Cus D’Amato. He talked about not really regretting chewing Holyfield’s ear off, and how his incredible rage made him such a great fighter….and a pretty lousy person.

In this clip, Tyson talks about the infamous Barbara Walters interview where Givens flat out called him an abusive husband while he sat there quietly saying nothing. You can imagine how that went over later that night. Mike claims she was just as abusive to him as he was to her—which is probably true—but her fists aren’t lethal weapons. [source]

Quick Quotes: Tyler Perry Reveals Abused Childhood

tp2 Quick Quotes: Tyler Perry Reveals Abused Childhood

Tyler Perry composed an emotional message to his fans on Saturday recounting various examples of terrible childhood mistreatment – from his father beating him senseless to a neighbor woman molesting him at age 10.

Perry says that his father once beat him so badly with a vacuum cleaner extension cord that “the skin was coming off my back,” and that his father hated that that he was sickly child, that he liked to read, write, and draw, and that he and his sister were darker-skinned than he was ["He didn't think he could make a dark baby. He just hated everything about me I guess."]

His father also beat his mother so often that she took his car, loaded Perry and siblings into it, and drove to California. His father tracked her down by reporting the car stolen, had her arrested, and then drove to California from Louisiana, where they lived, and beat her mercilessly all the way back to Louisiana.

Even his grandmother, the mother of his hated father, became a threat when she objected to his weekly allergy shot, he recalls.

“Ain’t nothing wrong with that damn boy – he just got germs on him. Stop wasting all that money,” she said, he recalled.

“She came and got me out of the living room leaving my Matchbox cars on the floor. She said she was going to kill these germs on me once and for all. She gave me a bath in ammonia.”

Your Daily Tang Multivitamin: Beyond The Zest

Posted by Fresh on August 17, 2009

One of our rising tang starlets has hit the big time, sort of. Atlanta hair stylist and owner of a plethora of sicknan designer hand bags and pumps Derek J was recently profiled in Creative Loafing. Get ready for the maple syrup sandwich of love!

derek j Your Daily Tang Multivitamin: Beyond The ZestHow did you get started?
I’ve been doing hair now for 10 years. My aunt used to do hair out of her house, so I used to watch her. I liked the transformation of women. You would see a woman come in and she was having a bad day, and then she would get her hair done and feel so much better. With a woman, when she has a physical change she has an emotional change.

Where would you say your inspiration for your style comes from?
If I want to come to work with some booty shorts on and have an off-the-shoulder top with some thigh high boots, that’s what I’m going to do. When I first started wearing heels, I would wear them with a dress slack so you couldn’t really tell I had a heel on. Then I moved to skinny jeans. I used to say I will never wear my toes out, and then I put on a peep-toe. It’s about pushing the envelope and seeing how people respond. To see people’s reactions and their acceptance makes me strive to do more.
