Image via Splash DMX Going To Prison For Probation Violation Earl Simmons just can’t get right. According to TMZ the brotha known professionally as DMX is going back to prison for violating his probation with several failed drug tests. X had voluntarily checked himself into rehab while out on bail in his tax evasion case. Guess that didn’t stick. This video of a excitedly rambling X holding a church service inside a St. Louis airport was evidence enough for the judge to pull the rapper’s card. Witnesses from the video say Earl was drinking and buying drinks for others. X will be sentenced in March, his judge chided him saying Dark Man told him a “great big lie” when agreeing to bail terms. Sounds like Earl is about to get a whole set of encyclopedias thrown at him. Continue reading →

Image via Frank Jansky/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Cleveland Indians End Use Of Offensive Native American Logo On Field It’s pretty pathetic that in 2018 we have to celebrate the demise of something that has been so egregious and overtly offensive for decades. According to VOANews , the MLB’s Cleveland Indians have finally acquiesced to angry Native Americans who are sick and tired of seeing their people exploited for the entertainment of the white man. Here’s what Commissioner of the league had to say: “Over the past year, we encouraged dialogue with the Indians organization about the club’s use of the Chief Wahoo logo,” Manfred said. “During our constructive conversations, Paul Dolan made clear that there are fans who have a longstanding attachment to the logo and its place in the history of the team. “Nonetheless, the club ultimately agreed with my position that the logo is no longer appropriate for on-field use in Major League Baseball, and I appreciate Mr. Dolan’s acknowledgement that removing it from the on-field uniform by the start of the 2019 season is the right course.” Cleveland will drop Wahoo in 2019. No ban on selling Wahoo gear, name stays. They can keep cashing in on nostalgic racism & claim decency. pic.twitter.com/kDKDcS7MQT — tara houska (@zhaabowekwe) January 29, 2018 Just like the Washington Redskins, the Indians organization argues that fans still have an “emotional attachment” to the logo. That said, paraphernalia with Chief Wahoo on it will still be sold and fans will still be allowed to wear it, but the mascot will not appear on the field. The “victory” feels a bit tainted, but we guess Native Americans have to take what they get for now. Still don’t nothin’ move but the money. SMH. Continue reading →
Source: Steve Granitz / Getty The conversation around women being less than their male counterparts has been making headlines. Recently, Mo’Nique spoke out against Netflix and claimed they only offered her $500,000 to do a comedy special, but Dave Chapelle , Chris Rock and Amy Schumer were offered more. Mo’Nique asked fans to boycott because she wasn’t going to be paid as much as the Black men as well as a White female. Follow @TheRSMS According to Madam Noire , women are still not valued the same and Black women still aren’t paid as much as White women. Recently, Octavia Spencer, a three-time Academy Award nominee and winner spoke out about how her friend and co-star Jessica Chastain fought for her. Chastain wanted Spencer to be apart in a moving she is producing and took action so that they both could be paid the same. Spencer told this story during a panel at Sundance for “Women Breaking Barriers.” As she kept telling more of the story she began to tear up. Spencer said, “These are happy tears! I love that woman because she’s walking the walk and she’s actually talking the talk. She said, Octavia, we’re going to get you paid on this film. I said, ‘I would love to do your film, but here’s the thing, I’m going to have to get paid.’ She said, ‘Of course! You and I are going to be tied together. We’re going to be favored nations and we’re going to make the same thing. And you’re going to make that amount.” The movie they are referring to is “Shadow and Act,” which is a holiday comedy. We look forward to see these ladies in it and hope more women can band together like this. RELATED: Octavia Spencer & LeBron James Team Up For Madam C.J.

Chitchatter… Jay Z Speaks On Beyonce Marriage With Van Jones Beyonce and Jay Z could have easily split after Hov’s infidelity, but according to Jay there’s a valid reason why they didn’t. Hov was a guest on (Roc Nation signee) Van Jones’ debut talk show Saturday and spoke candidly on his marriage to Bey. According to Hov, they didn’t divorce after his infidelity as addressed on “Lemonade” and “4:44” because they wanted to “break the cycle” and fight for their love for their children. “For us, we chose to fight for our love, for our family,” said Hov. “To give our kids a different outcome. To break that cycle for black men and women.” Jay-Z tells @vanjones68 about mending his marriage with Beyoncé: “For us, we chose to fight for our love. For our family. To give our kids a different outcome. To break that cycle for black men and women” #VanJonesShow https://t.co/wLq6GxxpVc https://t.co/Nq4mLVAvSJ — CNN (@CNN) January 28, 2018 He also added that Bey’s his soulmate so that’s why he wanted to fight. “What is about this marriage that’s so special that you would fight this hard to save it?” asked Van. “That’s my soul mate,” said Hov. “It’s the person I love. If you haven’t experienced love or don’t understand it or you don’t have the tools to move forward then you are going to have complications. Period.” But what would he do if the shoe was on the other foot and Bey cheated on him? Hov said he’d hopefully be as forgiving as her, the “strongest woman he knows.” “If the transgressions had been on [Beyonce’s] side, do you think you’d be able to be as forgiving of her as she was of you?” asked Van. “I hope,” said Jay. “I love her the same way. I pray that [I’d have her strength] she’s the strongest woman I know” The Van Jones show airs Saturday at 7 p.m. ET on CNN. Hit the flip for more Bey and Hov.
