The Dirty Laundry

T.I.says he's using his time behind bars, again, to become a "better man." Yesterday, the same day his new album, "No Mercy" came out. Here's the letter:

"So here it is...NO MERCY, the most honest and intimate installment of my life story as promised. Hope y'all enjoy it and it lives up to the very high standards I've set for myself or anyone who's to be considered one of the best. I must admit it takes a lot to go through as much as I have and still keep the love in your heart and in your art. But at the end of the day, if that's what it takes to produce the music that keeps the world of hip-hop evolving on it's axis....Then even the lowest of the lows of my life was all worth it. Thanks again for your prayers, your time and attention. And remember....It does'nt matter how long it'll be before the next time you see me. What matters is that I'll be a better man before that time comes. The longer I sit, the smarter I get.

I'd like to give a vey special thank you to all the fans who've been writing me and lifting my spirits everyday. I read all of them. Although I would never be able to write you all back...I'd like to list as many of you individualy as i can and thank the others collectively. It's a relief to know that there still are people who see a man with a life and not just another headline in the news. Most of you sound very concerned and optimistic at the same time about my situation. Let me assure you all that I am deffenitely keeping my head up. I don't consider myself done by far. Also many of you are convinced as I am that God has a plan for me that he's preparing me for. How do you tell God Almighty that all you wanna do is LIVE LIFE ??? What if all you wanna do is be a father to your kids, a husband to your wife, and son to your mother while providing insightful motivation through music and lending a helping hand when posible to those who need it most.

Well guys...That's the topic of discussion between me and the MOST HIGH at the moment. I'll keep you posted on how it turns out. Who knows maybe you can look foward to hearing the dialogue between us set to music on the next album...which I'll be announcing the official title to sooner than later. But until then, thanks again for all your understanding, love and support. Y'all take it light and be eazy."
- Love King.

Kanye Apologizes To Former president Bush


Kanye's Tweets after his interview on the Today Show:

"I went up there to express how I was empathetic to Bush because I labeled him a racist and years later I got labeled as a racist" (after the Taylor Swift incident).

"While I was trying to give the interview they started playing the 'MTV' under me with audio!!!!!!!"

"I don't mess with Matt Lauer or the Today Show ... and that's a very nice way for me to put it! ... HE TRIED TO FORCE MY ANSWERS. IT WAS VERY BRUTAL AND I CAME THERE WITH ONLY POSITIVE INTENT”

“I feel very alone very used very tortured very forced very misunderstood very hollow very very misused”

“I don't trust anyone but myself! Everyone has an agenda. I don't do press anymore. I can't be everything to everybody anymore”

“I can't be everybody's hero and villain savior and sinner Christian and anti Christ! ... I can't take anymore advice!!! I create, I'm creative, I have a good heart, everyone will see and understand one day."

"I want everyone to know I have lows all the time but I make it through them!"

Petey Pablo Is Facing Charges


Things aren’t looking good for Petey Pablo in his gun charge case. Petey claims he had no idea that a 9 mm handgun was in his carry-on luggage when he tried to board a plane at Raleigh-Durham Airport. But, oh boy, a federal grand jury said they didn’t buy it and indicted him. He’s facing charges of possession of a firearm by a felon and possession of a stolen firearm!

What's Up With Kanye's Bottom Teeth?



Well I wonder if Petey also stole Kanye’s bottom row of teeth! I never paid that much attention to Kanye’s mouth, but apparently MediaTakeOut did because they have quite a few pictures of Kanye with some strange looking piece of plastic or something where his teeth should be.

50 Cent Is Getting Big Money

Christina Milian’s Dream Turns Into Nightmare
Whew, this right here is about to get ugly! Well I told you yesterday that pictures surfaced of The Dream all boo-ed up with his assistant and that his rep issued a statement saying they had been separated since late 2009. Well now clues have surfaced on Christina’s Twitter page that make a different statement! On June 29th, 2010, Milian asked followers to support Dream's new CD, Love King, saying, "Support my boo!" But after those pictures surfaced, her Tweets changed tones. On Monday she tweeted, "Whatever you think…believe it," and retweeted the statement, "I've officially lost my appetite." So I guess we weren’t the only ones that didn’t get the memo!



Are Will Smith & Jada Pinkett in Tom Cruise Control
Even though Will and Jada Pinkett Smith continually deny that they're Scientologists they are rumored to have attended a four-hour Scientology event with Tom Cruise over the weekend.

8 Cents And Counting: Diddy’s Adds His 2 Cents
Diddy has finally weighed in on the Lil' Kim-Nicki Minaj beef. He said, "I love Lil' Kim and I'm sorry that she's mad. I never thought that by me working with another artist that she would take it the wrong way... Nicki never did anything to her." He also said Kim’s anger could be caused by her being unsure about her comeback. "MCs, when they coming back out, a lot of times they like to talk crazy and do what they do... At the end of the day, everyone respects Kim for being the Queen Bee... But I ain't gonna make no apologies for working with Nicki Minaj."
