The score points are divided into four categories: Originality, Skills, Music Selection, and Crowd Response. 120 DJs will compete in 20 National Finals this year, which take place all over the world and determine who will head to the World Finals in Moscow.

The Wildcard category is open only to DJs from countries not hosting a National Finals event and are awarded by the International Judging Panel to compete alongside the National Champions at the World Final. The USA National Finals has some of the most celebrated names in DJing to judge the competition, including legends like DJ Jazzy Jeff, Four Color Zack, DJ Puffy, and the Bay Area’s very own, J. Espinosa. Espinosa took home the crown as the Red Bull 3Style World Champion at the 2019 World Finals in Taipei.

Buffalo Wild Wings Employees Fired Over Racist Seating Incident

See the original post:

Two employees who participated in the racist moving of black patrons at a Buffalo Wild Wings have been fired. As previously reported a Naperville, Illinois Buffalo Wild Wings made national headlines after a group of patrons decided to leave after being asked to move tables because a regular customer “didn’t want blacks sitting nearby.” During the racist incident the host at the restaurant who was described as a young black man — asked, “What race are you?” to the group before noting that one of the restaurant’s regular customers seated nearby “doesn’t want black people sitting near him.” Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news. ( Terms and conditions ). When the party refused to move to accommodate the bigoted chicken wing chomper, a phony “reservation” excuse was used by a manager to try to prompt the party to switch seats. That incident has left those two employees without jobs. The Naperville Sun reports  that Buffalo Wild Wings spokesperson Clarie Kudlata in an email late Sunday said the company conducted a thorough, internal investigation and “terminated the employees involved.” She said a service manager and shift manager were fired. “Buffalo Wild Wings values an inclusive environment and has zero tolerance for discrimination of any kind,” Kudlata said. Reportedly several employees quit as well in connection with the incident.

Source: Rommel Demano / Getty Wendy Williams ‘ career in media has spanned over 20 years — and the fast talking, abrasive, Jersey girl is still the same old “say it like you mean it” Wendy from back in her radio days. People have been complaining for years about how Wendy is trash because of her opinionated persona. But the gag is, she has the highest rated morning talk show, which means folks are tuning in just to see the madness unfold. Most recently, Nicki Minaj called out the talk show host for being “demonic” and critical about the rapper’s recent nuptials. Wendy wasn’t always on TV and safe from getting hands put on her by pissed off celebs. Once upon a time, it was just her, her guest and a mic. But that still didn’t stop the media queen from coming at peoples’ necks. Hit the flip to check out some of the many time Ms. Williams almost got her behind handed to her on a platter. via GIPHY

Samuel L. Jackson, Anthony Mackie & Nia Long Star In ‘The Banker’ [VIDEO]

View original post here:

Anthony Mackie ,  Samuel L. Jackson , and  Nicholas Hoult have played Falcon, Nick Fury, and Beast in several Marvel movies — now they’ve come together again for a new Apple film due in theaters next month. Legendary actress Nia Long is also in the film. Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news. ( Terms and conditions ). Here’s a short synopsis courtesy of  Mashable : “In The Banker, a based-on-truth story and Apple Original Film, the duo plays Bernard Garrett and Joe Morris, respectively. During the 1960s, the two hatched a plan to build a real estate and banking empire around the idea of helping African Americans forge their own path to finding the American Dream. To do it, they sought help from a working class white guy by the name of Matt Steiner (Nicholas Hoult, of X-Men fame). Garrett and Morris taught Steiner how to socialize in rich guy circles, and used him as the face of their operation at a time in history when the color of one’s skin was an open and in lots of cases legally mandated barrier (rather than the systemic barrier it still is today).” READ ALSO:  Sign Us Up!: Amazon Announces Samuel L.
