<br />
Thomas Hagan was the last man still serving time in the 1965 killing, part of the skein of violence that wound through the cultural and political upheaval of the 1960s. He was freed from a Manhattan prison where he spent two days a week under a work-release program.<br />
<br />
Hagan, 69, has repeatedly expressed sorrow for being one of the gunmen who fired on Malcolm X, killing one of the civil rights era's most polarizing and compelling figures. One of the groups dedicated to Malcolm X's memory condemned Hagan's parole.<br />
<br />
Hagan declined to comment after his release.<br />
<br />
"I really haven't had any time to gather my thoughts on anything," he told The Associated Press by telephone.<br />
<br />
Hagan acknowledged that he was one of three men who shot Malcolm X in front of a crowd of hundreds — including several of his young children — as the civil rights leader began a speech at Harlem's Audubon Ballroom on Feb. 21, 1965. Two other accomplices created a distraction in the audience, Hagan has said.<br />
<br />
But he said the two men convicted with him were not involved. They, too, maintained their innocence and were paroled in the 1980s. No one else has ever been charged, a fact that has perpetuated debate and theories surrounding the slaying.<br />
<br />
The Manhattan District Attorney's office, which prosecuted Hagan and his co-defendants, declined to comment on Hagan's release or his account of the killing.<br />
<br />
Hagan tried 17 times before being approved last month for parole. He had been sentenced to up to life in prison for what he described in a 2008 court filing as the deed of a young man who "acted out of rage on impulse and loyalty" to religious leaders.<br />
<br />
The assassins gunned down Malcolm X out of anger at his split with the leadership of the Nation of Islam, the black Muslim movement for which he had once served as a prominent spokesman, said Hagan, then known as Talmadge X Hayer. Malcolm X had spoken out against its leader, Elijah Muhammad, in comments that some of Muhammad's followers denounced as slander.<br />
<br />
At the time, "I thought I was fighting for truth and right," Hagan said in a 1977 sworn statement that aimed, unsuccessfully, to get his co-defendants' convictions overturned.<br />
<br />
Over the years since the assassination, "I've had a lot of time, a heck of a lot of time, to think about it," Hagan told a parole board last month, according to a transcript of the interview.<br />
<br />
"I understand a lot better the dynamics of movements and what can happen inside movements, and conflicts that can come up, but I have deep regrets about my participation in that," said Hagan, adding that he had earned a master's degree in sociology since his conviction. He said he was still a Muslim but no longer a Nation of Islam member.<br />
<br />
The Malcolm X & Dr. Betty Shabazz Memorial and Educational Center, an organization founded by the civil rights leader's late widow, hasn't taken a position on Hagan's parole, board chairman Zead Ramadan said.<br />
<br />
"We just don't think it's ours to decide the fate of this man. We allowed the laws of this nation to develop that," Ramadan said.<br />
<br />
Members of the Shabazz family didn't immediately respond to a request for comment made through the center.<br />
<br />
Another group, the Malcolm X Commemoration Committee, decried Hagan's parole at a press conference earlier this month, saying the crime was too serious to allow for his release.<br />
<br />
"(Malcolm X) was and still is an enormous international figure and revolutionary hero," spokesman Zayid Muhammad said in a release. The committee holds essay contests and other events in his memory.<br />
<br />
Malcolm X rose to fame as an uncompromising voice for black empowerment who urged African-Americans to claim civil rights "by any means necessary" and called white people "blue-eyed devils." But after breaking with the Nation of Islam in 1964 and making an Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca, he began renouncing racial separatism.<br />
<br />
After he was killed at 39, a New York Times editorial called him a "twisted man;" Time magazine described him as a demagogue whose "gospel was hatred." But his stature grew after his death with sales of "The Autobiography of Malcolm X," written with Alex Haley, and later with Spike Lee's 1992 film "Malcolm X," said Manning Marable, the director of Columbia University's Center for Contemporary Black History and the author of a forthcoming biography of Malcolm X.<br />
<br />
By 1999, Malcolm X was on a postage stamp.<br />
<br />
Hagan was initially scheduled for release Wednesday, but the date was moved up because his paperwork was completed, state Department of Correctional Services spokeswoman Linda Foglia said.<br />
<br />
Hagan was on work release for nearly 22 years. He spent five days a week working in settings that included a homeless shelter; he spent those nights at his Brooklyn home with his family. He told the parole board he hopes to become a substance abuse counselor.Simone La Flarehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06468201541135017430noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-786319111569206085.post-69357593394087915592010-04-29T15:00:00.000-07:002010-04-29T15:00:38.026-07:00Woman Groupie at weezy's jail .<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://wordonthestreetsmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lil-wayne-busted-thumb-489x335.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="438" src="http://wordonthestreetsmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lil-wayne-busted-thumb-489x335.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS,Geneva,Ari; font-size: 14px;">A female prison guard at New York’s Riker’s Island Jail was fired – allegedly for getting GROUPIED OUT over rapper Lil Wayne.<br />

<br />
Keeping with this year’s “I hope my naked flicks up my Google search rating” theme, singer <strong>Bobby Valentino</strong> is the newest dude to hop on the bandwagon.<br />
His pissed ex-girlfriend reportedly “leaked” these half naked pics of Bobby in a <a class="kLink" href="http://theybf.com/index.php/2010/02/10/midnight-foolery-really-bobby-valentino/#" id="KonaLink0" style="position: static; text-decoration: underline ! important;" target="undefined"><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 255) ! important; font-family: verdana,helvetica,arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; font-weight: 400; position: static;"><span class="kLink" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 255) ! important; font-family: verdana,helvetica,arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; font-weight: 400; position: relative;">hotel </span><span class="kLink" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 255) ! important; font-family: verdana,helvetica,arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; font-weight: 400; position: relative;">room</span></span></a> about to get it in with his naked groupies.<br />
What Bobby doesn’t realize is, no amount of thirsty groupie love put on display is going to make bump him up off the Z list. I mean….really. But it <em>will</em> provide good late night sh*ts and giggles for the gossip folks.<br />

It sounds like somebody’s a new mommy <em>now </em>though. Congrats to the couple if true. We’ll provide updates when we get them…Simone La Flarehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06468201541135017430noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-786319111569206085.post-39373044317523504082010-02-23T16:51:00.001-08:002010-02-23T16:51:51.713-08:00Raheem DeVaughn-Putting the Love Back in R & BAlthough Raheem DeVaughn is the product of a musical family (his father is jazz performer Abdul Wadud and R & B chanteuse Chrisette Michelle is one of his cousins), the soul crooner is considered a late bloomer compared to many of his R & B peers. The Washington, D.C. native wasn’t bitten by the music bug until he began attending college at Coppin State University.<br />
“My father definitely gave me the opportunity, but I really just wasn’t interested in learning instruments,” admits DeVaughn. “But now, the good thing is, I can have conversations with my father where he can relate to certain things, or I may tell him I performed at a certain venue where he may have performed at before. It’s just that type of thing, so I still have that support, which is important.”<br />
<br />
Once DeVaughn set his sights on a career in music, things moved quickly, but success did not come overnight. He began his pursuit for R & B superstardom by entering talent shows and open mic competitions at various clubs throughout the D.C. area, many of which he won. After walking away from one of the contests with $2,000 in prize money, DeVaughn invested in a CD burner and began putting together his own mixtapes. The buzz that followed caught the attention of Jive Records, the label that ultimately inked him to a deal.<br />
<br />
Since then and despite his initial reluctance to embrace his musical roots, DeVaughn has managed to consistently produce quality music, attracting a fan base that transcends gender and age. “I get two to three different generations at my shows,” he said. “I get the younger generation, my generation, and like my mom’s generation.”<br />
<br />
<em>The Love Experience</em>, DeVaughn’s debut album, was overwhelmingly well received by R & B fans who had grown tired of the genre’s blatant sexual imagery and lyrics. “I feel like as far as the lyrical content and the sexiness of it, I think it should be encoded, and I’m about doing things tastefully, regardless of what it is or what the message is, it needs to be done tastefully,” DeVaughn explains.<br />
<br />
Selling over 250,000 copies, <em>The Love Experience </em>earned DeVaughn a Grammy nomination for the single “Women” in 2008. He received a second nod the following year for “Customer,” a track off his sophomore release <em>Love Behind the Melody</em>, which went on to sell nearly 300,000 copies. <br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="http://www.parlemagazine.com/images/stories/raheem2.jpg" />Outside of Grammy nominations, DeVaughn’s music has generated comparisons with the music of other purveyors of the grown and sexy sound, including Dwele and Van Hunt. “It’s cool,” says DeVaughn. “I take all comparisons. I really don’t get caught up in it. I think people tend to compare you to artists they like. So if it’s something that they like, or if they get a certain emotion, and then they hear you and it gives them the same emotion, they tend to compare you to that. So it’s cool, it’s all good.”<br />
<br />
Fans will get to experience more of the emotions sparked by DeVaughn’s music when his third studio effort drops early in the New Year. “Right now the focus is my new album, which is coming out in February,” DeVaughn acknowledges. “It’s called <em>The Love and War Masterpiece</em>, and it’s going to be a double CD, so it’s a lot of music to absorb at one time. I’m kind of just preparing for that, trying to get ready for all the music lovers to embrace that.”<br />
<br />
Sticking to a tried and true formula for the new album, DeVaughn worked with several of the producers he’d worked with on his first two projects, including Kenny Dope and Carvin & Ivan (Karma Productions). “I’m pretty consistent with the people I always work with,” he said. “I believe that if it’s not broke, don’t try to fix it.”<br />
<br />
<em>The Love and War Masterpiece</em> also boasts appearances from Wale, Damian Marley, and Ludacris, the latter who appears on “Bulletproof,” the album’s first single currently making the rounds. <br />
<br />
Other highlights from The Love and War Masterpiece include the tracks “XO” and “Mr. Right,” songs that fall in line perfectly with DeVaughn’s mission of providing the soundtrack to the bedroom – something he takes so seriously, that he’s admitted to testing his music in his own bedroom before it’s released to the masses. “Not to be vain, but I definitely will test out the music to make sure the product sets the mood and invokes the spirit of love and love making, and all that good stuff,” DeVaughn insists. <br />
<br />
If <em>The Love and War Masterpiece </em>is anything like his first two albums, then mission accomplished.Simone La Flarehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06468201541135017430noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-786319111569206085.post-36438783961635359152010-02-23T16:48:00.000-08:002010-02-23T16:48:58.846-08:00"Who's Next?"... Phil Ade... first artist signed to Raheem DeVaughn's labelMaryland rapper Phil Ade, has been hard at work making a name for himself among the crowd of up and coming artist. He gained his buzz with his debut mixtape, by way of 368 Music Group, <em>Starting on JV</em>, and is now looking to make some real noise with his next project, <em>The Letterman</em>. With his raw talent and lyrical ability, there’s no doubt that he will find some level of success among his industry peers. This is what he had to tell Parlé about his roots and how it all got started.<br />
<strong>Parlé: </strong>Where are you from and how has your hometown and its personality influenced your music? <br />
<strong>Phil Ade: </strong>Well, I’m from the Maryland area. That’s the area I represent, and I rep to the fullest, but I’ve also lived in Florida, in Alabama, and in California. I guess Maryland you could say, is where I found my home. All those different places I lived influenced my music, and I think my music is diversified since I come from all those places. So, each plays a big part in influencing my music.<br />
<br />
<strong>Parlé:</strong> Why music? What made you decide on music? <br />
<strong>Phil Ade: </strong>I wouldn’t say it’s something I decided on, it just kind of fell in place. [Music] is just something that felt right for me to do. My family, my mother’s side of the family had deep roots in music. My grandfather was in a singing group, both my uncles sing, my mother would sing around the house, my brother he sings also. He stays out in Cali, he performs here and there. Music is definitely in my family, more so singing. I was a singer first, until my high school junior year, when I picked up rapping. I’ve always been a fan of Hip-Hop though. <br />
<br />
<strong>Parlé: </strong>At what point in your life did you say, “I’m going to make my name known in the music business and nothing’s going to stop me”? <br />
<strong>Phil Ade:</strong> It was when I went to college. Like I said, I started my junior year of high school and I was doing it for fun, but I think it clicked for me when I went to this college in Alabama called Oakwood University. I stayed there for one semester and while I was down there I linked up with this go-go band and I rapped and sang with them. We performed at this place called Home Port, I believe it was every Tuesday, and just that experience of being onstage, performing and interacting with the crowd, and creating music like that took most of my energy while I was out there. I realized, ‘Man, this is what I have a passion for, this is what I enjoy.’ So, when I came back after school was out, I went all in and decided I wanted to do music. <br />
<br />
<strong>Parlé: </strong>There are a lot of different rap styles. You got your conscious rappers, your gangster rappers, your lyricists, more commercial artist, etc. What category do you feel like you fall into as a rapper? <br />
<strong>Phil Ade: </strong>What category? I wouldn’t categorize my raps. I’m not a gangster rapper because I’m not your typical hood dude, I’m just a regular dude from the burbs, know what I’m saying? Umm, I wouldn’t categorize myself as anything, I just try to do me. I create the best possible music that I can, just from life experiences and the things I encounter. I’m not sure what box you’d put me in, but I don’t like to put myself in a box. <br />
<br />
<strong>Parlé:</strong> What old school artist, group, or past rappers would you say most influence the sound and texture of your music?<br />
<strong>Phil Ade: </strong>I would say, definitely Nas, Tribe Called Quest, I listen to them a lot. Kanye, I’m a big fan of Kanye and how he puts music together. Lupe, his lyricism is undeniable. Umm, of course Jay-Z, definitely how he never keeps the same flow when he raps, like every song he does, he always puts a twist to the sound of his voice and I like his creativity as far as that. Yea I would say those cats. <br />
<br />
<strong>Parlé: </strong>I know you’re working with Raheem DeVaughn, are you signed with him?<br />
<strong>Phil Ade: </strong>I officially signed in April to his label that he started up out here in DC, its called 368 Music Group. Umm it’s a grass roots movement, you know what I’m saying, starting from the ground up and I’m blessed to be the first artist on that label. <br />
<br />
<strong>Parlé: </strong>Definitely a blessing. Now, Raheem is from Maryland himself. Does that have anything to do with how you two came across each other? <strong><br />
Phil Ade:</strong> Oh yea definitely, that college I went to, Oakwood, I met a dude that stayed in the suite next to mine and I use to go in there because a lot of my friends from back home stayed in that suite also. But, when I use to go into his suite I use to freestyle rap with the dudes in there and he kind of just noticed and told his brother. His brother happened to be best friends with Raheem. <br />
<br />
<strong><img border="0" src="http://www.parlemagazine.com/images/stories/phil2.jpg" />Parlé:</strong> Wow… <br />
<strong>Phil Ade:</strong> Yeah, so that’s how I got linked into that situation. And what’s funny about that is that the dude I met at the college, he hadn’t seen his brother in ten years, like he had just linked with his brother and told his brother about me, so its just seemed like everything was just aligning for the path to take off. <br />
<br />
<strong>Parlé:</strong> Wow. Yeah, that’s what you call a blessing right there. <br />
<strong>Phil Ade: </strong>Yea definitely. <br />
<br />
<strong>Parlé:</strong> It’s said that the DMV (D.C., Maryland, Virginia) area itself, has an old soul. So when you’re writing, rapping, and performing, what generation are you looking or aiming to touch as far as age groups or even genres? <br />
<strong>Phil Ade: </strong>Wow... (laugh)That’s a good question. That’s something, I never really think about making music. I just make what I like to hear, and I like to hear all sort of music. I like jazz, I like R & B, I’m a big R & B fan. Like I said my family sings a lot and I’m a Hip-Hop fan so my music touches on all those different genres. Like for real for real, I’m hoping that my music can touch all ages and all different cultures. I make music for everybody. <br />
<br />
<strong>Parlé: </strong>What are you currently working on? <br />
<strong>Phil Ade:</strong> Well the next big thing I got coming up, my next major thing is my next project. When we released the first one last year in July, it was called <em>Starting on JV</em> that’s up there on 368MusicGroup.com. That’s my first project, that kind of like broke me in and got me a little bit of a buzz. Now we are working on the next track, and we trying to take it to another level. I’m calling this joint <em>The Letterman</em>, umm I’m going to give you some background on the whole concept of my mix tapes. <br />
<br />
<strong>Parlé: </strong>Please do. <br />
<strong>Phil Ade: </strong>Like I said, the first joint is <em>Starting on JV</em> and its an idea that Dre came to me with, Dre is a co-owner at 368. He was sitting brainstorming about what I wanted to do with my project and he was like, ‘Man you should compare the game with high school basketball and so basically my first mix tape, <em>Starting on JV</em>, would make the statement that I’m one of the best upcoming cats, like I’m starting out on JV. It’s like your varsity cats would be the established artists like Jay-Z and Lupe and Diddy and all them big cats. JV would be like dudes coming out like J-Cole, Wale and Kid Cudi. Basically just making the statement like I’m one of the best coming out. <br />
This next joint we’re calling <em>The Letterman</em>, and basically that’s when you get your varsity jacket and get your varsity letter on your jacket, and that’s making the statement that I’m ready to be an established artist in the game and to be respected and to get mine. So that’s the next joint I got coming. Also Raheem, you know he is releasing his album in <em>March, Love and War Masterpiece,</em> that’s going to be real big for the whole company and for him and also for me, so he is going to be taking me on his tour. They’re going around the world, so that’s going to be big, that’s going to be my first major tour I’m going to be on.<br />
<br />
<strong>Parlé:</strong> What artist in the game right now would you say is someone that you have to collaborate with someday? Somebody you’re looking forward to working with eventually in your career? <br />
<strong>Phil Ade: </strong>I’d say, despite all the hype about him and not just because he is a hot artist right now but, Drake. He is definitely what’s hot right now and it’s because he does so well putting music together and writing songs. Like his writing abilities are phenomenal, so it would be dope to be able to do something with him.Simone La Flarehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06468201541135017430noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-786319111569206085.post-56205449874853686232010-02-23T10:07:00.000-08:002010-02-23T10:07:22.815-08:00Bitch im the Bomb<object height="340" width="560"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/W_Fv_Hl1uKA&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/W_Fv_Hl1uKA&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object><br />

Hip-hop, not rock, rules the realm, yet its stars still carry his rebellious spirit.<br />
<img src=http://www.latimes.com/media/photo/2010-01/51509575.gif><br />
<br />
Elvis Presley's 75th birthday is upon us, and I can't stop thinking about Lil Wayne. Comparing the long-departed King to the soon-to-be incarcerated Best Rapper Alive might seem ludicrous to some; certainly Presley's accomplishments outstrip those of Dwayne Michael Carter. But there's a logic to the association.<br />
<br />
Both artists leaped to stardom out of a troubled South: Elvis on the verge of the civil rights movement, Weezy in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Both gained fame on the strength of vocal performances that took established styles (rockabilly and urban blues; syrupy rap) to startling extremes.<br />
<br />
Both combined a dandyish sex appeal with the classic American charm of someone getting over -- sneaking across the sturdy boundaries of class, race and region by deploying a talent that delighted its owner by coming naturally. Both have been compared to space aliens.<br />
<br />
Rock music can be defined many ways: One is as a Southern-born, blues-based, multiracial, male-dominated genre exploring such risky subjects as sex, drugs and the high life in general while still aiming for a youth-driven mass audience. On those terms, rock's era of dominance begins with Elvis' "Hound Dog" and ends with Wayne's "A Milli."<br />
<br />
Presley was the dark-lidded white boy whose illicit race-crossing sound enacted a musical era that paralleled the most transformative period in American race relations since the Civil War. Wayne isn't as historically influential, but as the most aggressively gifted representative of the Dirty South, he might be the last crucial voice in the cultural conversation leading up to the Obama era.<br />
<br />
I don't believe in the term "post-racial," but I do think pop has entered a new phase, in which rock is no longer the defining force in American popular culture. Weezy's desire to be a rock star, embodied in his often-stalled Coldplay and Lenny Kravitz-influenced album "Rebirth," seems like the rock era's last transgressive gasp as it gives way to a new kind of hybrid that hasn't yet completely emerged.<br />
<br />
Wayne even has a protégé, Short Dawg, who also calls himself Elvis Freshly. Old gods die hard and are always available for resurrection.<br />
<br />
Lil Wayne's ambition seems very much like Elvis' own -- compulsively expressive, he breaks through barriers seemingly almost by accident, propelled by the pleasure of hearing his own voice. This distinguishes him from the more driven and ideological earlier "new Elvis," Eminem, and from Jay-Z, who prefers to model himself on another enduring star of white crossover music, that savvy adapter of jazz styles, Frank Sinatra.<br />
<br />
Considering Elvis in light of these rap legends in the making allows us to acknowledge an important truth: This latest Presley anniversary comes well into the hip-hop era. As it happens, 2009 was the 20th birthday of "Fight the Power," the Public Enemy song in which Chuck D announced that classic rock's claim to the American musical throne would no longer hold. "Elvis was a hero to most, but . . . " the rapper shouted in that preacherly baritone, ending the sentence with an expletive and an explosive word, "racist," that knocked the King off his pedestal.<br />
<br />
Chuck D offered a mild corrective to his incendiary words in 2002, when Glenn Gamboa of Newsday asked him to respond to the 25th anniversary of Elvis' death. "Elvis' icon status in America made it like nobody else counted," the rapper explained, noting that the singer's admiration for pioneers like Fats Domino and B.B. King, whom he considered friends, indicated that "my heroes were probably his heroes."<br />
<br />
As the Nirvana '90s gave way to the new century of Britney Spears, there was little sign that pop's pattern of elevating white stars above the artists of color who inspired them would cease. It seemed right that Chuck D had modified his stance toward Elvis himself without compromising his view of the consequence of declaring him rock's one and only king.<br />
<br />
Eight years later, though, the sands have shifted somewhat. Young men with guitars still reap profits (Nickelback is forever), but their cultural importance seems negligible. Instead, women singing R&B offer fresh perspectives while rappers vie for attention on their remixes. The Black Eyed Peas, the most ubiquitous pop group, present a vision of America that's not just black and white but also Latino and Filipino. Tech-savvy producers such as Dr. Luke and Timbaland take us into territories that seem almost post-human. And the generation gap isn't typified by raw new sounds, but by shooter games and avatars.<br />
<br />
The South's newest crossover sensation, Taylor Swift, might very well have been relegated to the role of screaming teeny-bopper during the King's reign.<br />
<br />
This seems like a good time to approach Elvis anew, not as King, but as what he was in his own time: a serious boundary-crosser who made it his mission to combine what others thought should stay separate. He might have been a good mama's boy at home and a sin-troubled freak in his personal life, but in the studio Elvis was as free as any singer has ever been.<br />
<br />
He always managed to sound like someone breaking down a wall, not only on the much-celebrated Sun sessions but even as he drifted into a morass of nouveau-riche self-indulgence. And for that reason, he remains iconic.<br />
<br />

<b><h2>Lil Wayne's guilty plea could affect CD, tour</h2></b><br />
<br><br />
His last album soared to the top of the charts, selling more than 1 million copies in a single week. He won multiple awards at this year's Grammy ceremony, and he's become one of the most popular touring acts working today. But hip-hop artist Lil Wayne's decision Thursday to plead guilty to attempted criminal possession of a weapon in New York likely could bring a halt to the New Orleans rapper's recent professional momentum.Simone La Flarehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06468201541135017430noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-786319111569206085.post-33703332078258917332010-01-03T07:45:00.001-08:002010-01-03T07:45:06.766-08:00Break Down Of Jay-z Video .<object classid='clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000' id='seyretpl' name='seyretpl' width='500' height='330' > <param name='allowscriptaccess' value='always' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='movie' value='http://urbanreup.com/components/com_seyret/localplayer/player.swf' /><param name='flashvars' value='width=500&height=330&enablejs=true&file=http://urbanreup.com/seyretfiles/cache/pro/localfile/943c76b9031b6a752dcebfbd01291c87.xml?random=tqrm8&image=http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs141.snc3/16840_1102853630444_1799842509_216276_7666849_n.jpg&autostart=true&logo=http://urbanreup.com/components/com_seyret/localplayer/urbanreuplogo.png&skin=http://urbanreup.com/components/com_seyret/localplayer/skins/modieus.swf&repeat=false&fullscreen=true' /><embed id='seyretp' name='seyretp' src='http://urbanreup.com/components/com_seyret/localplayer/player.swf' flashvars='width=500&height=330&enablejs=true&file=http://urbanreup.com/seyretfiles/cache/pro/localfile/943c76b9031b6a752dcebfbd01291c87.xml?random=tqrm8&image=http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs141.snc3/16840_1102853630444_1799842509_216276_7666849_n.jpg&autostart=true&logo=http://urbanreup.com/components/com_seyret/localplayer/urbanreuplogo.png&skin=http://urbanreup.com/components/com_seyret/localplayer/skins/modieus.swf&repeat=false&fullscreen=true&backcolor=040050&frontcolor=FFFFFF' width=500 height=330 allowfullscreen='true' allowscriptaccess='always' wmode='transparent' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' /></object>Simone La Flarehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06468201541135017430noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-786319111569206085.post-59730796467416683932009-12-30T18:47:00.000-08:002009-12-30T18:47:11.026-08:00Cutest Commercial<object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/v_Gmo0jSECE&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/v_Gmo0jSECE&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>Simone La Flarehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06468201541135017430noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-786319111569206085.post-30209163390945179942009-12-30T17:36:00.000-08:002009-12-30T17:36:07.179-08:00The King is Back !<img src=http://api.ning.com/files/hz5R7M-zNZ4Z8XTMc6AJHx0nUwxCPPLs95N8qqQ13jxmAIyZcppMK8o6CvLYElfVk63e9*imWihGdLS8aHERdzAQG3k1UHEv/tiwhateveryoulike1.jpg><br />

Just days after being released from prison and transferred to a halfway house, T.I. is reportedly is already heading back to the studio. Former Atlantic Records music executive Kevin Liles recently took to his twitter account where he hinted that TIP is making new music. "My right hand went home to visit family & found his way to the studio. He said 'why wait for 2010, get it in now' Love the attitude," the message read. The twitter post was later deleted, so was he talking about T.I.? We may never know.<br />
<br />
In related news, T.I. was recently released from prison (on December 22nd) and transferred to a halfway house. "He was released this morning from his place of incarceration in Arkansas," Steve Sadow (TIPs lawyer) said. "As I understand it, he’s on his way back to the Atlanta area. He has to report to a halfway house in Atlanta sometime this evening. And he will then spend somewhere between the next two or three months in a halfway house, ending his Bureau of Prison sentence."Simone La Flarehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06468201541135017430noreply@blogger.com0
