PETA Vice President, Dan Mathews commented on Kanye and Amber Rose’s fur coats on the organization’s blog. “Kanye can’t help making himself look like an idiot, whether at an award’s show or a fashion show. He and his girlfriend look like pathetic creatures from a shabby roadside zoo.” Don’t feed the animals. NB Previously: Kanye & Amber Are Fur Real | Vol. 2

Ricky’s wasting no time to shoot this visual for his next album, Teflon Don. Exclusive Access followed him and Chrisette Michele on the set in sunny Mi-yayo to see how it all came together. No golden eagles. Previously: Rick Ross: “Mafia Music Pt.2“

He flipped it. I was like, ‘That’s dope right there.’ I had the verse, I was in the studio kicking it with Jay Electronica. I was like, ‘You might need to get on this Reflection Eternal album.’ I was talking on […]

What a wild and crazy game. An exciting contest that was at times as sloppy as Oscar Madison’s bedroom, it was a gang of fumbles and a key interception by Brett Favre which cost the Vikings in the end. In a postseason where kickers kept choking, N.O.’s Garret Hartley knocked a 40-yard field goal in OT. The final score: Saints 31. Vikes 28. The Superbowl in Miami will feature the two truly best teams in each conference. Indy vs. Nawlins. […]
Hey it’s Championship Game Sunday so it’s only right both games get their own posts. Sadly for us Empire Staters, that after a great start, The Jets succumbed to the simply better Indianapolis Colts. Peyton Manning’s crew 30. Joe Willie Namath’s old sqaud 17. No upset here.
This is a great reminder of how powerful and lasting Lauryn Hill’s influence has been in music. The fact that The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill eventually reached diamond status after so many years shows that truly meaningful music can continue finding new listeners long after its original release. I also like how the article highlights the combination of hip hop, R&B, neo soul, and reggae that made the album so distinctive. Achieving more than 10 million sales is an incredible milestone, especially considering how much the music industry has changed since 1998. The album’s success feels less like a temporary trend and more like proof that strong songwriting and authentic artistic expression can remain relevant across generations. It is interesting to see how numbers can tell part of a story, whether we are looking at album sales or using a proportion calculator to understand relationships between different figures.
