SOHH Squad
In this week's Pulse Report, we take a look at one seriously good Magna Carta Holy Grail album review, watch Russell Simmons' brother go all Illuminati on us, take a very close look at 50 Cent's "new" baby mama and oh SOHH much more!
1. Sit Back & Relax
Let me just be clear about this, one of my favorite blogger moments over the past few years is when that fake Ghostface Killah character came out and not only had some harsh things to say about our favorite rappers but also gave some funny reviews of new albums. LOL. Those joints were hilarious! Well, not quite as funny but still on point is local legend Agallah Don Bishop giving a full review of the new Magna Carta Holy Grail album. This. Is. FUNNY! It’s just straight raw and unfiltered. LOL. Definitely not something you’re going to find in your local Rolling Stone or Billboard. Jay-Z might need to hire this doggy. Peep the write-up:
Magna Carter Holy Grail review
by Agallah The Don Bishop
Ight yall the moment hip hop has been waiting for the release of Jay -z’s 5th studio album Magna Carter Holy Grail . this is the first album that a rapper teams up witha corporation (SamSung) to release a lp / the myth is corporations feed off our culture so jay z is cashing in on just that with magna carta which only samsung users get to have first . the downloaders will be a frenzy getting this on other platforms when it releases but here is what i think of this album and knowing jay dont give a fuck what i think anyway cause he probably celebrating somewhere with rick rubin twinkling his toes and didnt even produce on the album just gave jay some advice after he gave kanye some not so good advice lol . well here goes my review enjoy !

2. Illuminati 101
Is Russell Simmons in the Illuminati? Probably not. Is his brother? Nahhhhh, but it looks like there was something that went down this week about his Danny Simmons having some things to say about the Illuminati after reading a particular story on this whole Magna Carta Holy Grail album. Before you start to analyze the screen shot that was sent to me, READ THIS ARTICLE FIRST, so you’ll have a better understanding. And then peep this:
LOL! NO COMMENT! Personally, I don’t take anything any doggy says on Twitter/Facebook/MySpace/etc. seriously, not only because you never know if it’s “them” saying it but also due to the fact that doggies get caught up in the moment. We’ve all said things we may have been joking about or just saying to say, but Danny should know the Illuminati is always watching. LOL.
3. Moment of the Week: 50 Cent’s “Extra” Baby’s Mother
I’m not going to lie, I cannot recall if Daphne Joy was ever featured as a Mrs. Butterworth but now seeing what all has gone down between her and 5-0 Cent? YES! YES! YES! She’s getting as much publicity and press as she can get starting right here. For all of y’all that aren’t familiar with what’s gone down, it turns out 5-0 has been on the low-low about having a baby’s mother that just so happens to be a Filipino model named Daphne Joy? SMH. Looks like 5-0 missed his shot at Oprah, huh? Here’s the “latest” scoop on all of this along with some shots of Daphne.
Daphne Joy, who was born in the Philippines, has a baby by the rapper and is now focusing on safety for the child and herself, said Jim Yeager, a spokesman for the Los Angeles law firm of Meyer, Olson, Lowy & Meyers, which is representing her. The alleged victim, whose name wasn’t earlier disclosed by authorities, released her name Friday through Yeager. “Daphne Joy and Curtis Jackson have been together for a few years in an exclusive relationship,” said a statement by the law firm. “They had a child and now Daphne’s number one priority is to ensure both her and the baby’s safety during this difficult time. We also hope everyone will respect her and the baby’s privacy.” (CNN)
50 Cent is adamant … he did NOT kick his baby mama during an explosive argument last month. 50 Cent’s attorney released a statement, saying, “Curtis Jackson [50 Cent] denies these allegations as made against him. It is important to note, Mr. Jackson has not been arrested and there is no warrant outstanding for his arrest.” TMZ broke the story … 50 was charged with domestic violence this week following the alleged domestic dispute at his baby mama’s Toluca Lake home, during which he allegedly kicked her and destroyed a bunch of her property (more than $7,000 worth). (TMZ)
Is anyone else confused yet? For starters, is this already being considered a fact that he has another baby’s mother? If so, the nerve of doggy to be interviewed and asked, “Do you ever want to have more kids?” LOL! Cold-blooded! Then, the fact he’s even being accused of kicking a woman, that’s horrible. Hopefully there’s no truth to this, but that’s pretty bad, no matter what way you slice it. Trust me, doggies, this is far from over.
4. Mrs. Butterworth: Erykah Badu
I don’t even want to hear it. Being 40 is really like the new 30 when y’all really take the time to think about it. Don’t call me a MILF addict (referring to last week’s Nicole Murphy), but when you think about Halle Berry, Jennifer Lopez, Gabrielle Union, Stacey Dash and so on, errrryone is pushing 40, so why not give it up to Erykah Badu? Just when I think she’s done for and I don’t have a crush on her anymore, she’ll do something like bring her sexy you-know-what to the 2013 BET Awards and make doggies start barking. She really had Kendrick Lamar looking dazed out of his head! LOL! Gotta give it up to EB one time!
5. Rappers Say The Darndest Things
Even during the Fourth of July, doggies are still getting caught slipping, saying things they know they shouldn’t! LOL. First off, Slim Thug trying to convince any doggy that Houston is the best place to go is tripping. H-Town’s nice but has nothing on Atlanta or even New York. Sorry Dwight Howard. Then there’s Torion Sellers who is supposedly trying to get out of a Young Money contract b/c Lil Wayne didn’t put his album out on time? LOL!!! Doggy, Wayne can’t even get HIS music out on time. That’s funny. Blame it on being a Bronx doggy, but I can’t respect Joey Bada$$ saying he’s worth $3 million. No doggy in Brooklyn other than Deron Williams deserves that kinda paper. SMH. Then it’s Hit-Boy saying it was time for him to leave G.O.O.D Music. C’mon, there’s only three crews eating and that’s Maybach Music Group, YMCMB and G.O.O.D Music, why leave that opportunity? Lastly, Al Sharpton on Cash Money!?!? Even worse, his explanation? LOL!
“I was trying to tell him the best things, from my standpoint; I know the Rockets ran a lot of good things by him [in their pitch to the big man], but I was talking in terms of women,” Thug told MTV News. “Obviously he loves women, and if you love women, Houston is a great place, D. I seen your baby mama on ‘Basketball Wives,’ and there’s plenty out here that are way better than her that I’m sure he would enjoy. Not only that, we got the best strip clubs … Houston’s a real big, beautiful city. L.A.’s strip clubs [are] horrible. They don’t even really have no strip clubs that he can go to. Not at all. Everything closes at two, and it’s all over. But if you go to Houston? Oh my God. Dreams Houston has some of the most beautiful women in America. It’s a beautiful thing, man. And a lot of NBA, NFL all types of ballplayers are present every weekend in there. So I sent him a few pictures of the top strippers in the city, I’m sure he enjoyed that.”
A 15-year-old singer has had it with Young Money and Lil Wayne and wants to jump ship … and he’s asking a court for help. Torion Sellers claims in new legal docs — obtained by TMZ — he auditioned for Lil Wayne when he was only 13 and Wayne immediately saw what he called Torion’s “amazing voice” and “God-given gift and talent.” According to the docs, Wayne signed Torion to Young Money and promised to record and release an album by Spring, 2012. But tick tock, tick tock … still no album more than a year later.
Is there anything that a major label could offer to get you to sign now? Three million. Off the top. If I gave you $3 million right now, you’d sign to my record label? Hell yeah. Get my Mom out the hood. You feel me?
“I got nothing but respect for Kanye, [but] I’m no longer a part of G.O.O.D. Music anymore. But HS87 is where my heart is, that’s what I’m reppin’,” Hit revealed. “[Anything make me leave?] No, I committed, as far as my contract, I did what I was supposed to do. I did six, seven singles for the label and I did what I was supposed to do. … I love Yeezus, I think it’s great.”
The Rev. Al Sharpton is working on a book to be co-released this fall by the publishing arm of Cash Money Records, home to Lil Wayne, with whom Sharpton has feuded over some of the rapper’s lyrics. Sharpton’s “The Rejected Stone” is scheduled for release Oct. 8. The book will be published by Cash Money Content and Massenburg Media, in partnership with the Simon & Schuster imprint Atria. The book will track Sharpton’s “personal evolution” from New York street activist to political candidate and civil rights spokesman. Sharpton told The Associated Press on Thursday that the book would include his thoughts on Lil Wayne and other rappers and that he was anxious to have a positive dialogue. He added: “Just because we disagree doesn’t mean we have to be disagreeable.”
***Even though y’all all celebrated yesterday, it’s still a 4th of July weekend! LOL! Play some good tunes, get the food out, have some fun and don’t even think twice, just do it! I’ll catch y’all on Tuesday! –BB***
Fuck that
CANADA > america
At what? Being in debt or having ppl with no jobs+
In flying under the radar?
You can’t shit on houston, comparing to the atlanta is horrible…atlanta has too many gay niggas, and ny has too many niggas in one space. Houston is massive, I bet you haven’t even seen all of houston and what it offers….plus the police aren’t as bad as they are in new york. Plus has new york been allowed to have super sized drinks yet? lol If you’re not a hedge fund manager somewhere on wall st, “slanging crack rock or you got wicked jump shot”, you losing. New york is the mecca of hip hop, but thats about it….houston has something for everybody…
Nah man comparing new York city to Houston is like comparing a playoff game to the Super Bowl.lol you need to visit. I like Houston but nah ny always has something going .
Houston known for chopped and screwed and lean….fuck outta here y’all still have to deal with kkk rallies and shit
LOL…you still didn’t say why I was wrong…its too many niggas in one lil small space. That’s probably why you so hostile now son!!!!
atlanta has gays, ny has a lot of niggas in one spot, and houston is one of the biggest spots in the country as far as the selling women as sex slaves lol. all these places have their negatives and their positives
Truth! Lol
Houston has no culture. Has no major museums, not very ecclectic/cosmopolitan. Just a country city with some oil companies and strippers. Best American cities are Chicago, San Francisco, DC, NY
You a lie and a half. I was just fucking around trying to be funny but since you wanna not be funny, you ain’t seen shit or probably was a square ass lame who didn’t know where to go. Kuz you scary. Chicago is deadly right now, DC has so many murders it has a channel created specifically for murderers and violent criminals. My 1st night in DC they stabbed 2 tourists. My 2nd night they stabbed this white guy outside my hotel. San Fran is the gay Capitol of the world. Houston been had culture dog. Stop playin
Nigga do u know what a global city is? do u know what we mean by culture? DC has so many museums. Chicsgo has the Chicago institute with some of the greatest impressionist works. San Fran also has a world class museum. All these cities have huge truely international populations not just Mexicans and Nigerians. These cities are closer to London and Paris. Ur a local Houston nigga. U don’t know shit bout cultural cities.
You haven’t traveled more than me. Trust that. I’m on my 3rd book getting stamped out. You have no idea and I see its more obvious post by post. Houton just Mexicans and Nigerians? Lol. Wow. You go to a couple of museums and act like you what a global city is? The museums you go to, and are do proud of, doesn’t show anything better than seeing it in person. London has culture. Paris has culture. Miami has culture. Amsterdam has culture. Rome has culture. Tokyo has culture. Chicago and DC only has culture framed by this racist ass government. White man ysay this is art, you say ok. White man say this culture you say ok. Miss me with how much you’re impressed by the whir man culture.
Ha ha. If u’ve ever left the state of Texas, u’d know that NY, San Fran, DC and chi, are the most cultural cities in America. All those cities u named I’ve been. No one around the world says I wanna go to America to go see Houston. What is there in Houston? What museum, what landmark, what? C’mon homie. Austin has more culture. Ur a lame. U couldn’t possibly have a passport cuz everyone knows Houston is not cosmopolitan.
Man you ain’t been nowhere. You just local. You talking about museums and landmarks like that’s all there is to culture. Only a lame, or someone who hasn’t been anywhere would say that. No one goes to my San Fran or DC for culture. They go to see tourist attractions. That’s not culture. Do you even know the definition of culture? You can’t look at culture genius. You experience it. You live it. It’s amazing how misguided you are.
Really. I’m going to Senegal on Wed and Hong Kong/singapore in Sept. Monuments don’t make culture but cities with culture have attractions. That’s what brings tourists from around the world to visit and live. Athens ( parthenon etc). Rome ( collesium). London (buckingham, Windsor castle, etc). Paris (eiffel tower, notre dame etc). What do people go to Houston for? The Enron building? Oil Rigs? U still haven’t answered my question on whether u’ve ever heard someone on ur imaginary travels overseas say they wanted to come to America to visit Houston?
You make no sense at all. Do you know how many cities around the world have culture without attractions? You trying to convolute two different things entirely. New York and DC both have shitty beaches. Why ain’t the culture done something for that? So now people from there have to go to fla, Puerto Rico, or the keys or Virgin Islands to go see a nice beach. Now people who want to go to New York to visit are either shopping or want to see skyscrapers. But their culture isn’t anything spectacular. Matter of fact it’s all derived from the people’s native homelands! I don’t need to go to New York to learn about Puerto Ricans! I can just go to Puerto Rico. You just don’t get it. But keep thinking you know what you’re talking about. People visit New York for culture? Lol. Smh.
So what makes Houston a cultural hub? I’ll wait…..
You tell me how it got to be the MOST populated city in America without it? There’s plenty of reasons for that. One them has to be opportunity. One of them has to also be culture. Just because enough didn’t know enough to research it for whatever reason is not good enough to think Houston got to be #1 by just a couple oil and gas buildings. People come to find out and apparently they stay because they like whatever it is Houston had to offer. Just because they don’t make a big fuss about being #1 doesn’t mean folks like you can act like you don’t know what it is when the numbers don’t lie.
Dude u make all this noise. I give u an opportunity to present ur case for Houston and u give me this? I thought of moving to Houston a few yrs back. I’ll tell u why ppl go there. Lots of space, city almost the pop of Chicago, with Iowa home prices. Nothing to do with being global city. A place u can buy a big house for 200k. U can’t get a condo in Arlington va under 450k let alone a single family. HOUSTON is a big city with Minnesota home prices. That’s the attraction
You’re the one making a big fuss. Saying Houston has no culture. As in zero. Zilch. Nada. I’m saying not only are you wrong, you’re dead wrong. Houston family arts center is good my daughter performs with them from time to time. She’s actually paid for it and she’s 12. That’s one. Another is downtown black owned and I can’t think of the name of it right now but it’s put together very well there are a lot of well to do black folk putting big money into keeping that running. My daughter performed for them as well. But not just that. They have high schools specialized for damn near every field of study you can imagine from performing arts to engineering and of course oil. My daughter is putting her application now for when she’s done with middle she’ll have her package ready for submittal. I’m not saying like its JUILLIARD but they boast that on average at least 7 got chosen from that school to go to Juilliard. Again. They have all kinds of stuff but its nothing that you can’t google for yourself. Culture is there and it’s thriving. They’re growing at probably the fastest rate in the country. Because of the space still there, I don’t see why it couldn’t pass Chicago and New York for being the most populated city in the country. And the culture will only get better as Houston grows.
All the stories all I saw was
