You wanted to know about Lil Wayne's BET Award kicks right?
People been asking me WTF was Lil Wayne wearing at the BET awards this past weekend, and thanks to the homies over at Complex I have the answer. Weezy was rocking a custom pair of Supra Skytops! No they won't be released, he had them done up on his own!! More pics inside!
A detailed look at Kanye West's Louis Vuitton Collabo
The wait is finally over as the Kanye West x Louis Vuitton collaboration kicks are arriving at LV stores as we speak as they officially drop tomorrow, July 1st! I think it's dope that he named the kicks after his homies, The Don's, Jasper's, and Hudson's! Check out more pics inside to get a close up look on what $835-$1140 can get you!
Trey Songz- Anticipation Mixtape
Drake/Young Money BET Awards Performance
Embarrassing to say the LEAST. I hope BET put Wayne in his place after that horrific performance. In case you missed it (and be glad you did, otherwise you would've been like the rest of us - hiding our faces in our hands)here it is.
Side note: Weezy always calls himself a goblin. Whats a goblin? Wikipedia definition: A goblin is an evil, crabby, and mischievous creature described as a grotesquely disfigured or gnome-like phantom, that may range in height from that of a dwarf to that of a human. YOU KNOW WHAT?! HE'S ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!! HE IS A GOBLIN!!
BWAHAHAHA!!

UPDATE: 12 MJ Fans Have Now Committed Suidcide
Wow, I'm really speechless. That man impacted some so much that they felt life was unbearable without the King of Pop. A total of 12 fans have committed suicide because of the death of Michael Jackson. Seriously people we are all hurt and saddened to the point of speechlessness…however DON’T SELF DESTRUCT! Michael Jackson believed in world peace and would've never wanted this.
As many as 50 callers seeking help from suicide prevention hotline Lifeline Australia have told counsellors that Jackson’’s death on June 26 has left them distressed.

4 Soldiers Killed As We Finally End our War in Iraq
We still have Afghanistan to deal with, but at least they are finally pulling the troops out of Iraq. And now that we're done with them, I have to ask...what did we really accomplish over there? I will never short the brave men and women that fought for our country, they're not at fault. I'm wondering what our government was thinking? We went over there for oil? Soooo, where is it...Anyway, here's a report from Yahoo on the end of the Iraq war:
BAGHDAD – Four U.S. soldiers were killed in combat shortly before the American military completed a withdrawal from Iraq's cities, and the prime minister assured Iraqis that government forces taking control of urban areas on Tuesday were more than capable of protecting the country.
Nouri al-Maliki said in a televised address that "those who think that Iraqis are not able to protect their country and that the withdrawal of foreign forces will create a security vacuum are committing a big mistake."
The streets of Baghdad were relatively quiet, as the Iraqi government named June 30 National Sovereignty Day and declared it a public holiday.
The withdrawal that was completed on Monday was part of a U.S.-Iraqi security pact and marks the first major step toward withdrawing all American forces from the country by Dec. 31, 2011. President Barack Obama has said all combat troops will be gone by the end of August 2010.
In the attack Monday against U.S. forces, the military said the four soldiers who were killed served with the Multi-National Division-Baghdad but did not provide further details pending notification of their families. It said they died as a "result of combat related injuries." (Yahoo)

BET Awards: To Sum It Up
Look, there are way too many flaws to point out about that show, but I refuse to degrade BET like that. True, at times the show was a bit embarassing. But in retrospect, they literally had two days to get this show together so you gotta hand it to them for pulling it off, especially with all of the last minute special surprise guests. So instead of tearing it apart, here's an easy breakdown:
New Edition - DOPE; RALPH TRESVANT SHOULD'VE DRANK SOME LEMON JUICE FOR THAT RASPY VOICE THOUGH!
Keri Hilson - BEST FEMALE PERFORMER
Neyo - HAD ME IN TEARS TWICE
Ciara - POOR CHOICE
Neyo's RnB Tribute - OUTSTANDING...BBD! GUY! KEITH SWEAT!! AAAAAHHHH!!!
Jamie Foxx - DOPE, TRAVIS BARKER WAS A GREAT TOUCH
Beyonce - TASTELESS; SHE COULDN'T SPARE ONE MINUTE OF HER SELFISH SHOW TO PAY TRIBUTE TO MIKE
Jay-Z - KILLED IT
Drake/Young Money - DRAKE WAS COOL, LIL WAYNE AND THEM SET US BACK 40 YEARS
Soulja Boy - KILLED IT
Keyshia Cole and Monica - PERFECT; ALTHOUGH MONICA PUT KEYSHIA TO SHAME
Tevin Campbell - BETTER THAN EXPECTED!
Mary Mary - DOPE
O'Jays - PERFECTION

Janet Jackson Speaks at BET Awards
I was totally shocked to see Janet come out on stage towards the end of the show. Now I understand why the show was so unorganized. I would've pulled out all stops too if I would've thought there was a chance she would show up. Besides the heart warming performances from Jamie and Ne-Yo, this had me tears.
Joe Jackson At the BET Awards
Don't you think its a bit soon for Joe Jackson to be parading around? Yo real talk, I think we are mourning harder than he is. I just thought it was strange how he kept cheesing like nothing just happened. And in the video he's talkin' about him and Michael were very close...does he realize that we've seen the movie? Who you tryna fool? Anyway, RIP Michael Jackson.
Skank Robbers
There's so much to post about, being the BET awards came on last night. I wasn't quite sure where to start (trying to be positive about the awards show) so if you didn't catch it last night, Jamie Foxx previewed a "movie" starring Martin Lawrence as Sheneneh, and himself as Wanda!! If you watched Martin and In Living Color back in the day you already know what I'm talkin about!! Not sure if this is a real project, but it definitely should be. This would be a refreshing comedy.

RIP Farrah Fawcett, An American Beauty
I got so caught up in the loss of MiJack that I forgot to honor the beautiful Miss Farrah Fawcett. She was truly an American beauty and a TV icon. Forever known as the feather-haired ass-kicking Jill Munroe of “Charlie’s Angels,” Farrah Fawcett lost her battle with cancer yesterday at the age of 62. A few days before her passing, her long time companion, Ryan O'Neal was in preparation to marry her. The two share a son, Redmond O'Neal who is currently serving time for possession of heroin.
I feel kinda bad for her and her family. Her remembrance was shaded yesterday by the loss of Michael Jackson. If this doesn't serve as a serious example of appreciating your loved ones, I don't know what will. Thank God for those that you have around you, life too short. But we will not forget Farrah, RIP Beauty!!
