New Music? Pastor Young Jeezy Addresses His Congregation And Hints At Album Release Date

Jeezy Releases A Letter To All His Fans Voicing His Concerns For the last week, Atlanta’s T-R-A-P-S-T-R, Young Jeezy, has been teasing fans with a cryptic Instagram post that displayed a countdown. A countdown to what? We had no idea, until today… I would like to take this time to address the Street Disciples and Congregation to express my concerns and frustrations on what’s going on in our communities all over the world today. With the poverty level at an all time high, it’s damn near impossible for one to take care of him or herself without the possibility of prison or death. You have law enforcement officials gunning down unarmed black men. You have misinformed young men gunning down unarmed women, children and men in churches, movie theaters and public events. There’s a war going on, but you have to ask yourself, who is the enemy? They ask why you black males are so militant? My answer to that would be because they are making us soldiers. Soldiers in a war on humanity. We have nothing to lose and everything to fight for. We are fighting for our people; we are fighting for our right to live. We die to claim our streets and hoods when we don’t own as much as a mail box. That tells me one thing – If we all were on the same page and had the same cause, there is nothing in the world we can’t change or make happen. They ask us why we hustle? To feed our families; to take care of our households; to pay our bills on time. Just like any other American. The only problem is there’s not enough jobs and opportunities for everyone. As a matter of fact, people are being laid off at an alarming rate. Black men getting out of prison try to turn over a new leaf in life, but are placed on parole so they are not able to find employment. They are forced to return to the only way they know to survive. That means sacrificing his freedom and life for his family’s survival. You may call him a criminal, a felon, a societal problem or all the above, but I see someone that is noble and honorable. I see a leader. Malcolm X and Dr. Martin Luther King died for what they believed in; so did Bob Marley. They all have a cause and wanted to make a difference in this crazy world. When an individual would do anything for his or her community and the people in it, that is a Godly act. Not in the biblical sense, but in the sense of the word. We are all Gods in our own right. We all have the ability and the power to change the things around us. We all have the ability to affect lives; to raise our sons and daughters to become Kings and Queens; Leaders and Prophets. To make a difference on Earth while they are here. I know you may be reading this and thinking to yourself, why so dark? Why so sinister? When in fact, it is the exact opposite. Hit the flip to find out what this is all about…

Celebrity Cribs: Freakish Footballer Randy Moss Is Ready To Rid Himself Of His Rhode Island Residence [Photos]

Former NFL Player Randy Moss Selling $749,000 Rhode Island Home Straight cash, homie. Via Realtor Legendary NFL wide receiver Randy Moss is tossing his Lincoln, RI, home to the sidelines for $749,000—a 40% reduction from the price he paid in 2008. That’s all right, though: The six-time Pro Bowler can afford to be thrown for a (relative) pittance of a loss if he decides to suit up and return to the NFL. While that’s looking ahead for him, let’s look at what he’s leaving behind. The 38-year-old athlete, whose incredible athleticism earned him the nickname of “The Freak,” is selling a 3,846-square-foot contemporary home situated on 4 acres. The three-bedroom, three-bathroom home includes hardwood flooring, built-in shelving, and lots of light. The master bathroom features two separate vanities, a walk-up hot tub, and a walk-in shower with rain showerhead. The kitchen is traditional but elegant, with stainless-steel appliances, wood cabinets with glass doors, and yards of countertop space.

‘Back To This B***!’ Here’s What Happened When Nicki Minaj Called Out Miley Cyrus At The 2015 VMAs…

  Nicki Minaj Calls Out Miley Cyrus At The 2015 VMAs Social media is abuzz right now with reactions to the moment Nicki Minaj called out Miley Cyrus. As previously reported Miley said she “doesn’t respect” Nicki’s Taylor Swift inspired complaint about racism at the VMAs, and called her “not too kind”: Via The Hollywood Reporter: “I don’t respect your statement because of the anger that came with it,” “And it’s not anger like, ‘Guys, I’m frustrated about some things that are a bigger issue.’ You made it about you. Not to sound like a b***, but that’s like, ‘Eh, I didn’t get my VMA’ … If you want to make it about race, there’s a way you could do that. But don’t make it just about yourself. Say: ‘This is the reason why I think it’s important to be nominated. There’re girls everywhere with this body type.’ … What I read sounded very Nicki Minaj, which, if you know Nicki Minaj, is not too kind. It’s not very polite.” and just moments ago, Nicki clapped back live on stage at “this b*** Miley.” Nicki Minaj addresses Miley Cyrus for comments she made in a recent interview. #WhatsGood #VMAs pic.twitter.com/Fz3hzCPVJL — Karεn Ciѵil (@KarenCivil) August 31, 2015 Oh dear.

Orlando Commissioner’s Daughter Dies Of Mysterious Cause Just Weeks After Sons Were Popped For Drugs

Daughter Of Orlando Commissioner Dies Mysteriously The Orlando commissioner has lost her daughter to unknown causes just weeks after both her sons were arrested on drug charges . Via MailOnline : The daughter of Orlando Commissioner Regina Hill has died under mysterious circumstances. Arvonni DeBose, 24, was taken to the hospital Friday afternoon after she was found at her home in Tallahassee need of medical assistance, and passed away later that day. The tragedy comes a little over a month after Hill’s two sons – Rakeem Hill, 27, and Omari Nembhard, 26 – were arrested in a raid on her home in Orange County in which police found methamphetamine, cannabis and cocaine. The Orlando Sentinel reports that police are referring to the incident as an ‘unattended death,’ meaning DeBose was healthy before she passed away. They are now interviewing witnesses and collecting evidence in an attempt to find out what happened to the young woman. An autopsy is also being conducted by the medical examiner. Hill was elected to office in May 2014 and has had a difficult year dealing with the arrest of her two sons. The two were found with 60 grams of meth, 37 grams of cocaine and 152 grams of marijuana as well as two semi-automatic firearms – one of which was stolen. They were charged with trafficking and both pleaded not guilty. Hill – who was not home at the time and denied any involvement – is not facing any charges. Nembhard’s 5-year-old daughter was also at the home during the raid, which came after authorities spent two months monitoring the house. What a sad and strange turn of events…

Race Matters: Tennessee City Councilman Vows To Kill “Black N***er” For Not Paying Debts

Tennessee Councilman Johnny James Calls 911 And Threatens To Kill “N***er” Politicians are racist??? We’re shocked… Via RawStory A Tennessee city councilman who runs a car towing service called 911 earlier this month, telling the operator to send police officers to his place of business or “you’re going to have one deceased black n****r down here.” In the recording, reported by WVLT, Loudon City Councilman Johnny James can be heard threatening to beat the man to death. James says he is not prejudiced and has lots of black friends, but that he was frustrated at his inability to get paid by the man before they got into a fight. “I regret it, I wish it had never happened, but there’s nothing I can do about it, I can’t change what the past is,” James explained. “He kept agitating me, getting on my truck, agitating me, and he took me to the limit.” Initially addressing the 911 operator as “sweetheart” James identified himself before saying, “If you don’t get 941 down here on Bright Rd. you’re going to have one deceased black n****r down here.” During the conversation with the operator James was asked if he had any weapons in his wrecker truck, with James replying, “No, I don’t need a weapon to beat him to death with.” http://up.anv.bz/latest/anvload.html?key=eyJtIjoiZ3JheSIsInAiOiJkZWZhdWx0IiwidiI6IjMyNTUwMjUiLCJwbHVnaW5zIjp7ImRmcCI6eyJjbGllbnRTaWRlIjp7ImFkVGFnVXJsIjoiaHR0cDovL3B1YmFkcy5nLmRvdWJsZWNsaWNrLm5ldC9nYW1wYWQvYWRzP3N6PTY0MHg0ODAmaXU9LzMwMTcyMTcxNS9XVkxUJmNpdV9zenMmaW1wbD1zJmdkZnBfcmVxPTEmYWRfcnVsZT0xJnZwb3M9cHJlcm9sbCZlbnY9dnAmb3V0cHV0PXhtbF92YXN0MiZ1bnZpZXdlZF9wb3NpdGlvbl9zdGFydD0xJmNvcnJlbGF0b3I9Jyt0cysnJmNtc2lkPTMyNzUmdmlkPUFOVl9HUlRWXzMyNTUwMzYifX0sImFuYWx5dGljcyI6eyJwZGIiOjg1MTU2NTY1fX19 Yup, this guy represents the local government.
