Gwyneth Paltrow can single handedly ruin leather pant fetishes on a global level when she slips her boring, unattractive, awkward shape body into a pair…what the fuck is she thinking, oh right that she’s a princess cuz her daddy always told her she was even after he called all his industry friends to give her a fucking career…bullshit.
In the early-mid 1990s, in a smoky pool hall in the Bronx, NY, Jay-Z and DMX went toe to toe in a war of words. Details about the legendary hip-hop battle are scarce, and those who were there admit that their memories of the event have faded a bit. HipHopDX spoke to three people who were at the battle: Ski Beatz , Sauce Money, and Ruff Ryders co-founder Waah Dean. The three men, to the best of their ability, gave an inside look into a battle of two of the 90s greatest emcees. Waah Dean: We did [the battle] on neutral grounds. Instead of doing it in Brooklyn or Yonkers, we did it in the Bronx. Ski Beatz: When I rolled up, I was with Dame Dash , Tone Hooker, Jay-Z, and I think some of Dame’s people from Harlem—his crew called The Best Out. That was the name of his crew, from Harlem. I think Dame set [the battle] up. It was like a Brooklyn-Uptown/Harlem kind of thing. So we all met at the pool hall, in the Bronx. Waah Dean: We heard some things about Jay-Z from Brooklyn, and from Dame, and we’d bump heads with their people every now and again. The word was out that we had these guys that was doing similar things—traveling to different areas and [battling]—so we knew in a matter of time we was gonna be in a place where somebody was gonna make the phone call, and say, ‘Yeah, we got this guy standing here, and they all wanna be here…’ and that happened. So we knew what was up. We didn’t really look for anybody, we just dealt with the situation as it was there. We knew [DMX] was one of the best, one of the greatest, so we wasn’t worried about no artist coming after him. Sauce Money: Everybody who battled, I think it was myself, there might’ve been a girl—we had a girl, her name was Roughness—and T-Strong, and Jay. We had to get on top of the pool tables, so whoever’s battling, they’re standing on the pool table, going at it. Waah Dean: There was no room in the building to stand at, so the only way to do it was to stand on the pool tables so everybody could see. Sauce Money: The pool table was like a boxing ring. We were standing on opposite sides of the pool table going back-and-forth. While we were rapping, n*ggas were pulling out guns—all kinds of crazy sh*t. Ski Beatz: People came in there strapped; people from the Bronx had guns, and people from Harlem had guns. Luckily it didn’t go down like that, but the atmosphere was Hip Hop, [and] at the same time, it was gangsta. Read the rest of article at HipHopDX !

So far, I’ve been more than a little mystified over images from This Must Be the Place, in which Sean Penn plays an aging musician who looks very much like The Cure’s Robert Smith. The big hair, lipstick and eyeliner aren’t doing Sean Penn many favors, and with each image — that’s the first official one, above — I’ve wondered about the fate of the film. But Paolo Sorrentino’s film does have serious… Broadcasting platform : YouTube Source : /Film Discovery Date : 15/04/2011 18:22 Number of articles : 4

Camel was interviewed by his best bud, Gwyneth Paltrow , and when asked how he “got so cool”…he states that it’s the women in his life: Jay-Z knows many people think he leads a dream lifestyle thanks to his music and business career and successful marriage and says a lot of that is down to the people he surrounds himself with. “I’m around great women, starting with my mom,” he replied, when asked how he remains so cool. “Women keep men cool. The hotter the chick the cooler the guy… that sounds like a really bad rap line!” Jay-Z made the comment while being interviews by Gwyneth Paltrow for her website GOOP’s newsletter. The musician is promoting his new website Life + Times, which he’s using to draw attention to new developments in art, design, music, sport and leisure. He’s proud of the site, explaining only items which “pique his interest” will be included on it. It’s taken him a long time to develop and he hopes it will be inspiring for his fans. “I started working on it in its various incarnations over a year ago. I’ve thought about it forever. You know how it works, seeing other sites and being either inspired or saying, ‘That’s sh*t. I would do it like…’” he explained. “I think it’s every human’s job to inspire others, to feed one another’s senses. Inspiration begets inspiration times infinity. Imagine if the person that was inspired to create the phonograph didn’t share it with the world.” Source

Jay-Z ‘s new lifestyle website, Life + Times , launched on April 1st and gives a first-hand look into what the Jiggaman thinks is cool and worth your time (and money). His bestie, Gwyneth Paltrow , also has a website called Goop that serves a similar purpose. It only made sense that the two interviewed each other for their respective websites. Check out some excerpts from their short Q&A sessions below: Gwyneth Paltrow: You are the coolest man on Earth, how the f did you get like that? Jay-Z: I’m around great women, starting with my mom. Women keep men cool. The hotter the chick the cooler the guy … that sounds like a really bad rap line! Jay-Z: Personally I was very surprised at your extensive knowledge of hip-hop songs. Particularly how you can sing ’90s hip-hip songs word for word. I can’t even do that! How does a girl from Spence discover hip-hop? Gwyneth Paltrow : I first was exposed to hip-hop when I was about 16 (1988) by some boys who went to collegiate. The Beastie Boys were sort of the way in for us preppie kids. We were into Public Enemy, Run-DMC and LL Cool J. But then I went to LA the summer between my junior and senior year of high school and I discovered N.W.A which became my obsession. I was fascinated by lyrics as rhythm and how Dre had a such different cadence and perspective from say, Eazy-E, who I thought was one of the most ironic and brilliant voices hip-hop has ever had. It was an accident that I learned every word of Straight Outta Compton and to love something that a.) I had no real understanding of in terms of the culture that it was emanating from and b.) to love something that my parents literally could not grasp. But I was hooked. I can’t remember what I ate for dinner last night but I could sing to you every single word of N.W.A’s “F*ck Tha Police” or [Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock’s] “It Takes Two.” Go figure.
