MTV asks Sherman Klump Mike Tyson his thoughts on Chris Brown smacking up Rihanna. We all know Mike knows a thing or two about domestic violence.
 
“My personal opinion about that is, he’s just a baby,” he continued,

with a tone of empathy toward the 19-year-old Brown. “He’s just a

little baby that don’t know how to handle his emotions when it comes to

a woman. And he probably hears this and thinks, ‘I know how to handle

my emotions’; we all think we do. But the fact [is], you look at this

person and you might be crazy in love, but we don’t know how to handle

those feelings.”

50. You lied to meee. Earlier today, I stopped by Barnes & Noble and left empty handed. Ricky’s album’s out today, so where’s the tell-all? Did you Farhenheit 451 the situation at the last minute? What gives? What do we want? Answers! When do we want ’em? Now!

Sidebar: Though the poster says May 2009, Miss Info got the scoop that the book was dropping the same day as Rick’s album. The date is also confirmed in the recent Village Voice. Deeper Than Rap is in stores now, folks.

Update: Well, whaddya know. Looks like someone’s got a story to tell after all.

May 19: A Great Day In Hip-Hop?
alt

Now that we’ve gotten this Ross vs Roth release thing out the way, it’s time to gear up for what could quite possibly be the Greatest Day in Rap History. What you ain’t notice? How everything in the future revolves around the date May 19? If all goes according to plan you’ll have the much heralded return of Eminem. Plus, a post Aftermath Busta Rhymes product. Fat Joe trudges on. DJ Drama shouts out for recognition. And Meth and Red get their rap vet reunion on. We can’t get an official tracklist from anyone, but it looks like most or all of these will actually come out.

You talk about Super Tuesday. 2009 got your fuckin’ Super Tuesday. Plus, T.I. may turn himself in that day. Now that would be something. Are you startin’ to get excited yet? I know I am. Plus, for you pro-Black historians it’s also Malcolm X’s born day. I am YN and RR approves this message: Save your pennies!

RR reader, “Matik!” brought this to my attention yesterday. Here is an unreleased 50 Cent interview with Mixery Raw Deluxe. In the clip, Curt talks about “How To Rob” and fucking up Ja Rule’s career.  After the Jump, Jigga debunks the idea that rappers purposely carry burners for street cred.

Lil Wayne Declares Lakers NBA Champs

The truest sports commentator with tattoo tears, shares more of his insight on the Wide World of Sports. Sorry Roc Boy, Weezy is ridin’ with KB24.

Just so no one gets it twisted: the Lakers are winning the NBA Finals. Now that KG is out, the C’s aren’t gonna go anywhere, which is a shame. You always like to have the defending champs in there to fight like hell to hold on to their crown. Doc Rivers doesn’t want to believe it. And as competitive as KG is, I can’t imagine even being around him right now — how frustrated he must be because all he wants to do is get out on that court. He’s probably breaking stuff in his house, he’s so mad.

Anyway, so now we’re looking at a Lakers versus Cavaliers final, and that’s going to be amazing. Kobe won’t get the best of LeBron, but the Lakers will get the best of the Cavs. I’ll be rooting for the Lakers, and LeBron already knows that. So it’s not like I’m gonna show up in a Kobe jersey and make ‘Bron Bron cry. He knows I’ve been a Laker fan my whole life so it’s all good. That don’t mean he likes it, but he ain’t gonna cry when he sees me at the games screaming for Pau Gasol and Trevor Ariza.

But LeBron will be OK. He’s gonna win the MVP this year. That will be his consolation prize. Phil Jackson and the Lakers will walk away with more rings, but LeBron will get his trophy.

The problem is the lil’ fucker is prollly right.
