Which emo rapper does this sick tattoo belong to? The old Kid Cudi is gone. The G.O.O.D. Music rapper killed off his former self, showing the bloody scars with a gruesome new tattoo. “New Tat The old Scott is dead…slit wrists,” wrote Cudi, who released his WZRD album with Dot Da Genius today. The project is already #1 on iTunes, but he is not happy with the way his label has supported it. He tweeted: “Ok so just a heads up, my weak a$$ label only shipped 55k physicals cuz they treated this like some indie side project tax right off,” he tweeted. “They tried to rush me thru this so i can just give em another MOTM, but guess what? F**k that, next album is WZRD. MOTM3 on hold til 2014.” What do you think of Cudi’s new ink? Source Tumblr More On Bossip!

LET’S GET READY TO RUUUUUUUUUUMBLE! XXL Magazine’s Freshman Class of 2012 list hasn’t even been out more than a few hours and already there is some beef brewing over who was chosen for it. Although, Azealia Banks and Iggy Azalea are both relative newcomers to the game, don’t expect either of them to have each other’s backs. Azealia hopped on Twitter to put Iggy on blast for not deserving to be on the cover of XXL and the throw shots that the white girl rapper might even be a racist. She tweeted: “Iggy Azalea on the XXL freshman list is all wrong. How can you endorse a a white woman who called herself a “Runaway slave master”? Whatever. Sorry guys. But I’m pro black girl. I’m not anti white girl, but I’m also not here for any1 outside of my culture trying to trivialize very serious aspects of it. In any capacity. *kanye shrug* If u hate my music now because of how I feel about this then I guess it’s my loss. I’ll take that loss.” Azealia was referencing Iggy’s “D.R.U.G.S” track where she starts off the verse “When the relay starts, I’m A Runaway Slave… Master,” which is a bit awkward (depending on how you decipher the lyrics). However, Azealia Banks’ rant about Iggy comes off as bitter, especially for a newbie in the game [She’s already taken jabs at both Nicki Minaj and Kreayshawn in the past, as well]. Iggy responded: Don’t bother including my @ name in any of ur salty thoughts either cause… I’m #blockinthata$$ today!!!! First female freshman. Ever. Period. Thanks world! I used to stick XXL on my bedroom door, now I’m on the cover. Life is great. What do you think of the hip hop girl beef? Source More On Bossip!

Black women in America may tend to be heavier than white women but they are far happier with their bodies, a study has found : A nationwide survey found that 66 per cent of overweight or obese black women had high self esteem compared to 41 per cent of average-sized or thin white women. The survey by the Washington Post and the Kaiser Family Foundation interviewed more than 800 women across America to compile one of the most comprehensive studies in decades. However black women remain more likely to slip into obesity and suffer higher rates of diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure and other weight-related health problems. The survey discovered that 90 per cent of black women thought living a healthful lifestyle is very important, outranking religion, career and marriage. Having ‘meat on your bones’ and ‘something to grab on to’ has always been considered healthy and larger black women celebrated and flaunted their bodies. “Big, black and beautiful” as the motto goes. But do you feel that because being big has become widely accepted in the Black Community as opposed to other races? Has that perception of beauty translated into our health taking a backseat, whereas in the White community being considered big is normally associated with being unhealthy? Source More On Bossip!

It’s one thing to be a fan but cotDAMN…SMH While most of us have already seen, passed judgement on, and moved past, Nicki Minaj’s head-scratching Grammy performance, Philadelphia chanteuse Jill Scott just got a chance to see it for herself. Upon watching the clip, Jill took to Twitter to express her thoughts on the Catholic-themed show. Like most of us, Jilly from Philly wasn’t really diggin’ it, and the Nicki Barbz came out of their dollhouses in droves to e-ssassinate her over Twitter. Although they were totally out of pocket in the way they addressed the three-time winner, she handled the misguided Minaj minions with class and dignity. Flip the script to peep the tweets.

A homecoming photo of a U.S. Marine caught in a passionate PDA session with his boyfriend has gotten many different reactions after being posted originally on Facebook. The dramatic snapshot has drawn over 14,000 likes, and has received over 3,000 comments, since being uploaded to Facebook ‘s Gay Marines group. Blogger Joe. My. God. quotes Brandon Morgan , the Marine in the photo, as saying: To everyone who has responded in a positive way. My partner and I want to say thank you. Dalan, the giant in the photo, can’t believe how many shares and likes we have gotten on this. We didn’t do this to get famous,or something like that we did this cause after 3 deployments and four years knowing each other, we finally told each other how we felt. As for the haters, let em hate…to quote Kat Williams, everyone needs haters, so let them hate. We are the happiest we have ever been and as for the whole PDA and kissing slash hugging in uniform…it was a homecoming, if the Sergeants Major, Captains, Majors, and Colonels around us didn’t care…then why do you care what these random people have to say? In summation thank you for your love and support. I received a lot of friend requests off this. I don’t just accept requests so if your request was because of this post message me and let me know. Goodnight all, and Semper Fi. What do you think of the photo? Facebook More On Bossip! For Discussion: Viola Davis Wears Her Hair Natural To The Oscars – Revolutionary Or Not?

At least it’s not Jeremy Lin SMH Oh, how awkward. Not only did Time put an Asian guy on the cover of their “Yo Decido” cover about Latino voters, but the Asian guy in question is actually a member of the press. OC Weekly ‘s Michelle Woo reports: A friend of mine, Michael Schennum, is the short-haired gentleman in the top row, center, behind the letter “M.” He is half Chinese and half white. Not Latino. Not even a little bit. Not even one of those Chinese-Mexicans from Mexicali that OC’s own Robert Chao Romero likes to write about. At least as far as Schennum knows. Schennum, who is a staff photographer for The Arizona Republic, wrote on his Facebook page, “They never told me what it was for or [asked] if I was Latino.” A Time spokesperson sent OC Weekly this response. Over the course of three days TIME photographed 151 people for the current cover. We took steps to ensure that everyone self-identified as Latino, that they are registered voters and that they would be willing to answer our questions. If there was a misunderstanding with one of our subjects, we apologize. Hey Time, if you’re going to do a story talking about “Latino” voters, where race has become the headline and focal point of the article than do it right! Ok? Time More On Bossip! Smackdown!

C’mon man what the hell is going on?!?! GQ sat down with Mr. Benjamin to chop it up about the latest goings-on in the life of the Atlanta Hip-Hop icon. GQ: You’re a spokesman for Gillette now. How did that partnership come together? Andre 3000: Gillette is getting into a space where guys are now, where guys are wearing more hair on their faces. If you watch the history of Gillette, they pretty much stayed on the path of the clean-shaven guy. This is the first time in their history, in like 110 years, that they’ve ever had guys in ads with hair on their faces. It’s a changing of the times and it says a lot about Gillette; they’re kind of moving with fashion. GQ: I dig it. And you’re resurrecting your clothing line, Benjamin Bixby? Andre 3000: Yes! But it will just be named Bixby this time. It’s going to be real exciting, I can’t say too much about it, but I can say this year and next year there’s going to be a lot of cool things coming from me fashion-wise. Bixby is one of them. Also musically, sound-wise, and fashion. You’ll see a lot of releases. Which leads us to what we all really want to know… GQ : So does that mean we can expect to hear the album we’ve all be waiting on? Andre 3000 : It depends on which album you’re talking about. GQ : A new ‘Kast album! Andre 3000 : There’s been a lot of talk on the Internet about an OutKast album and I have to say that as of now, there are no plans for another OutKast album. There’s a lot of music on the horizon. I’ve been living off the excitement of new artists. I’ve been privileged to have these new artists kind of reach out and grab back and say, “Hey, Andre, we want you on this song.” So I’ve been taking those calls and for the last two years, I’ve been doing collaborations. So these new artists have kind of been keeping me alive. I’ve just really been feeding off of that and this year I think I’m planning to do a solo project. I don’t know when it will come out, but hopefully it’ll come out this year. As far as OutKast, I really don’t know if or when that will happen. GQ : What’s the new solo album going to be like? Andre 3000 : The only thing I can really say is I’m going to get back to having fun because that’s what it was all about when I started this in high school—with OutKast—those were like high school dreams. I’m 36 now, so I have grown-man dreams. This album will just be me being myself as normal. In true 3000 fashion, Andre caps off the interview with something profound. GQ : Expectations for your next album couldn’t be higher. What are you most afraid of? Andre 3000 : The biggest fear is me thinking about it too much—and that’s why I’m just trying to catch the energy just like I’ve done before. What you all have heard before, I was not thinking, I was just going on cruise control. I was just going at it like any artist. When you look at the Wayne, when you look at the Kanye… I can tell when an artist is in the zone because they’re not thinking and that’s when you’re at your best. So I’m just hoping, at this point, I don’t let my history get in front of my future. You know what I mean? As much as we want a new Outkast album, we’ll definitely take an Andre solo album.

The Boricua bride-to-be busts loose some inside info on the new season of our favorite fawkery program. Via RadarOnline The Basketball Wives are back with a vengeance for a new season, and RadarOnline.com caught up with the hottest star of the show, Evelyn Lozada to get the dish on the drama, the wild women, and her famous NFL-playing fiancé. “I am happy to be with some of the ladies, I’ll say that!” Lozada told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview. “I am really good friends with Shaunie O’Neal, we were friends before the show, and Tami Roman.” But as any fan of the VH1 hit is well aware, there is no love lost between Evelyn and Jennifer Williams, who started season four of the show with a bang when they got into an angry cat fight in the premiere episode. “As of now, me and Jennifer are not friends and I don’t think I will ever reconcile the friendship,” the outspoken 36-year-old New Yorker told RadarOnline.com bluntly. “In the first episode they talked about her being ‘bougie,’ when you are that person and you get a little bit of fame, you start believing the hype. She thinks she is better than everyone else.” Damn, tell ‘em how you really feel Ev. After knocking a couple inches of Jen’s stilletos, the isht-talkin’ Boricua took aim at new-booty Kenya Bell “Most of the cast members feel she’s a little strange to say the least. She’s not really someone I would hang out with after filming, she’s not my type of person.” “I think her fakeness could definitely be Kenya’s demise.” Despite her feelings about Kenya, there is one new cast member that she is quite fond of… “Kesha always remained herself and didn’t change, she wasn’t trying to do anything to make her mark on the show, but with Kenya she is not being herself and tries really hard to fit in. “When you come into a fourth season, you smell B.S. from far away. It’s best to be yourself, that’s why I took a liking to Kesha. She is a really sweet girl and always seems like she is the same person on and off of the set.” Surprisingly, Evelyn says that despite her usually calm demeanor, Shaunie O’Neal lets it be known that she is NOT one to f@#k around with this season. “Shaunie actually gets into a conflict with one the cast mates, she’s usually quiet and stays out of the mess. She did have an issue with one of the ladies on the show, and I think viewers will be surprised that she voiced that and who that person ended up being.” Shaunie must have gotten the message that she needs to stop being a bystander and talk a lil’ isht her damn self. Should be VERY interesting. More On Bossip! Smackdown! The Chris Brown/CM Punk Feud Is Getting Pretty Intense! “I Will Choke You” And Breezy Responds!

Bish please… According to TMZ reports : Dr. Conrad Murray’s girlfriend is begging the court to let him out of jail pending his appeal … claiming he’s a “good father” to their toddler. Nicole Alvarez — who played the femme fatale during the trial — filed a declaration of support for Murray today … in which she says if Murray is released he will live with her and their 2-year-old son in Santa Monica. It’s not the most powerful or emotional letter. Alvarez says, “Dr. Murray is the father of my child” — and adds … he “has been our primary source of support.” It’s unclear how much support Murray can provide now — considering his medical license has been revoked. Murray’s hearing for bail pending appeal of his manslaughter conviction is scheduled for tomorrow morning in downtown L.A. You can’t release this guy, he’s killaaaaaaaaaa, he killed Miiiiike… Image via WENN More On Bossip! Smackdown!
