With my growing infatuation with high-top sneakers, these are really doing things to my senses. Dicoco Hi Creative Recreations are also my forte but these are crazy. The Skytops and Suprano High are my favorite collections and are pictured above. The royal blues are vicious! And I’m loving the smoke effects for the photo shoot. See more pics at Nice Kicks.

Sauce Money - “Get the Paper”

Sauce Money - “Get the Paper”
This joint is fire-ish. You probably remember Sauce from rolling with the Roc before they were the Roc you know them as today. He did tracks with Jay including “Pre-Game” from his album “Middle Finger U.” I’m kinda mad his career didn’t sky-rocket but it’s refreshing to hear a joint like this.

Lil Wayne talks to DJ Drama About Dissing Mixtape DJs

Lil Wayne calls Drama on Shade 45
Wayne called DJ Drama on Shade 45 and explained his back-asswards comments about mixtape DJs. He should have just said the name but I do feel him for saying this. Maybe Chuck T should have heard this before he leaked “Tha Carter 3.”

50 Cent house fire suspicion ‘heats up,’ Shaniqua wilds out
Posted by Des on May 30, 2008
After this mornings fire at 50 Cent’s home in Dix Hills, NY, his baby-mother Shaniqua Tompkins is throwing out all kinds of allegations towards ex-boo, 50 Cent.
Tompkins now alleges that someone broke into the house shortly before it caught fire –and that someone is 50. “If he can’t have me he feels that no one can!” she yelled at a flurry of news cameras and reporters. “He’s very obsessed,” she continued. (click for video)
It was a sad vision of ‘hood’ as she loudly claims that 50 threatened to kill her. “He said he was gonna have someone come kill me and watch what he does. And this is what he does,” Tompkins alleged. “I’m very upset!” Then a friend escorted her away from the media storm, almost getting hit by a car in their escape.
To make matters worse, the ex-lovers were seen arguing in Manhattan on Monday and it was all captured on video (view video).
The idea that 50 Cent would burn down a house that his child was in is monstrous — but would he? 50’s camp is already shooting down any possibility of his involvement.
“Any suggestion that Mr. Jackson had anything whatsoever to do with the fire at his home is outrageous and offensive,” said 50’s lawyer, Brett Kimmel.
Either way this situation is going to get ugly, fast.

50 Cent’s Long Island home burns down in suspicious fire
Posted by Des on May 30, 2008
Early this morning, a home owned by 50 Cent in Dix Hills, New York burned down as occupants and neighbors stood back and watched. Though, he doesn’t live there, 50’s son Marquise and his mother Shaniqua Tompkins, and four others were in the $2.4 million home at the time of the fire.
Around 5 a.m. the 911-call was received and the fire was extinguished nearly 45 minutes later. No one was seriously injured but all occupants of the home were taken to the hospital and quickly released for smoke inhalation. A firefighter also suffered a minor eye injury and is expected to be fine.
Dix Hills Fire Chief Larry Feld forwarded the inspection of the blaze to the arson department “because of the intensity of the fire, and also being that who belongs to the house,” he said.
Arson wouldn’t be a stretch as 50 Cent and Tompkins were involved in a heated dispute over the house, resulting in 50 trying to evict her and his son. She claims that the rapper promised the house to her nearly 10 years ago.
The home burning down may yield insurance money so it only makes sense for heightened suspicions. Although most policies do not cover arson.

50 Cent and Diddy developing reality TV shows
Posted by Des on May 29, 2008
As sitcoms fail, reality television seems to be a fad that is going on for way too long. Some of hip-hop’s elite are developing reality shows along with trying to maintain their rap career. As reported earlier, T.I. is developing a reality show with MTV, and with similar moves, 50 Cent and Diddy are also on developing shows for the network.
50 Cent’s yet-to-be-titled show will feature 16 contestants trying to prove that they are the “ultimate hustler.” Wait, wasn’t that Dame Dash’s failure of a show? Contestants will be eliminated weekly and the winner gets a prize that may last a lifetime. Not money or a sterling silver spinning G-Unit chain. Not even a record deal. The winner a scholarship to an undergraduate or graduate business program. Read the rest of this entry »
