Is Mobb Deep On The Verge Of A Breakup?

Havoc issues blistering series of personal attacks on Prodigy over Twitter; tweets congrats on P’s ‘engagement’ to Rihanna. By Rob Markman Mobb Deep Photo: Robert Adam Mayer Mobb Deep used to rap, “We’re in this together, son, your beef is mines,” but now there appears to be an internal battle between Havoc and Prodigy . Early Monday morning (April 9), Hav took to Twitter and sarcastically congratulated Prodigy and Rihanna on their engagement, then made serious allegations about his rhyme partner’s sexuality. It’s all very strange, but sources close to Havoc confirmed with MTV News that this is no hack. Things started to spin out of control at around 3 a.m. ET when Hav tweeted: “congrats to P @prodigymobbdeep and @rihanna for getting married soon!! @rihanna please confirm!” There was no confirmation from the Talk That Talk singer, but that didn’t stop the Grammy Award-winning producer from continuing his rant. “Prodigy abitch and I’m gonna show it, follow!! Ground breaking new,” Hav wrote soon after. Things got even more scathing when Havoc charged that his childhood friend was involved in a homosexual relationship during his three-year jail bid . “I got n—as in the jail system to to back up that prodigy was f—ing homes in jail,” he wrote. “Now i will silence… and let the jails take care of the rest.” But Havoc didn’t “silence,” instead the temperature continued to rise as Hav posted tweets throughout the morning saying he “had to smack P” and went on to threaten Prodigy. “Next time I see u, u getting layer out, con camera.” Mobb Deep released their debut album, Juvenile Hell, in 1993 and have gone on to drop seven LPs together. Throughout their career, Mobb Deep have stood as one of the pillars of New York’s street hip-hop scene. During an October 2011 episode of “RapFix Live,” both Havoc and Prodigy appeared on the show and talked about their legacy as a group. “We been through a lot of eras in hip-hop music, and every album we have the attitude like it’s our first album,” Prodigy said. The group planned to release their self-titled eighth LP later this year, but now the future of the duo seems to be in question. There’s still no word as to what caused the rift, but Havoc is clearly no shook one as he went on fearlessly sending out barbs. He even challenged Prodigy to a fist fight: “LET’S DO A ONE ON ONE!!!!! ME AND P!!! HE SO BUTTTT HE WILL AVOID!!!!” The barrage continued through the a.m. and ended with Havoc tweeting, “Good morning gay P!” Prodigy has yet to respond via Twitter and a rep for the rapper had not responded to MTV News’ request for comment at press time.

Elsewhere In The World: Swedish Man Survives Two Months In Snow-Buried Car

Wow. A Swedish man was being treated in hospital Sunday after being dug out alive from his snow-buried car in which he had survived for two months with no food, according to police and local media. The 45-year-old from southern Sweden was found on Friday, emaciated and too weak to utter more than a few words. The BBC reported the temperature in the area had recently dropped to -22F (-30C). He was found not far from the city of Umea in the north of Sweden by snowmobilers who thought they had come across a car wreck until they dug their way to a window and saw movement inside. The man, who was laying in the back seat in a sleeping bag, said he had been in the car since December 19. “Just incredible that he’s alive considering that he had no food, but also since it’s been really cold for some time after Christmas,” a rescue team member told regional daily Vasterbottens-Kuriren, which broke the news. The Daily Telegraph reported that the man appeared to have survived on melted snow. Amazing that he survived. Source , Reuters

Hi Haters: Five NASCAR Racers Refuse To Visit The White House And Meet President Obama

Obama just gets hated on from all corners these days. He invited 12 NASCAR racers to visit the White House to celebrate their 2010 seasons and five of them, including Greg Biffle, Tony Stewart, Kevin Harvick, and Carl Edwards, declined. They all said they had “scheduling conflicts” which translates to a good old-fashioned “f*ck you!” NASCAR is a beloved sport of the Red, Republican states so the good ol’ boys that declined are probably going to be treated like heroes for their insult to the President. But they might as well fess up to it. When has an athlete ever been too busy to go visit the President? Didn’t think so.

Glenn Beck Compares Obama’s America To ‘Planet Of The Apes’

Glenn Beck compared Obama's America to “the damn Planet of the Apes,” Thursday during a rant against the president's praise for the AFL-CIO. Beck made the comparison while trying to blame union support of strong pensions for the nation's high unemployment rate. He doesn't like that former SEIU president Andy Stern sits on the president's panel on deficit reduction. The segment's accompanying online article omits the Fox News host's Planet of the Apes comparison. added by: TimALoftis

Scientists Observe Fastest Evolution Ever

University of British Columbia researchers have observed one of the fastest evolutionary responses ever recorded in wild populations. In as little as three years, stickleback fish developed tolerance for water temperature 2.5 degrees Celsius lower than their ancestors. The study, published in the current issue of the Proceedings of the Royal Society B, provides the some of the first experimental evidence that evolution may help populations survive effects of climate change. Measuring three to 10 centimetres, stickleback fish originated in the ocean but began populating freshwater lakes and streams following the last ice age. Over the past 10,000 years, marine and freshwater sticklebacks have evolved different physical and behavioural traits, making them ideal models for Darwin’s natural selection theory. “By testing the temperature tolerance of wild and lab-raised sticklebacks, we were able to determine that freshwater sticklebacks can tolerate lower temperatures than their marine counterparts,” says lead author Rowan Barrett from the UBC Department of Zoology. “This made sense from an evolutionary perspective because their ancestors were able to adapt to freshwater lakes, which typically reach colder temperatures than the ocean.” http://science.ubc.ca/news/449 added by: ibrake4rappers13

Fighting the Heat with a Smarter Grid

Image credit: Good When the temperature climbs, demand on the power grid goes up with the mercury. The culprits are a million air conditioners cranked to full blast and the result, when things get really hot, is sometimes a power outage. To combat this surge in demand, utilities have tried to generate more power but recently they have also tried a different strategy: Using the available energy more intelligently ….
