Louis Vuitton is “supposedly” coming out with a LV monogram condom for $68 a pop. Now, this is a little crazy. Who exactly would pay $68 for a rubber that you just throw away after one use… Is it re-useable??! The fine print on the picture states that this item is coming soon. So, Bossip Staff, being the private investigators that we are, went to the Louis Vuitton website to check on this “coming soon” product and what do ya know… We couldn’t find it and we were not surprised because this is insane. If this were to happen, every rapper would run around making songs about their Louis… SMH! How many of you would $68 on a rubber?
Who knew all that “Gucci” and “Louis Vuitton” could be worth so much?? More than $1 million worth of counterfeit merchandise was seized in a weekend raid at a Cobb County flea market. Forty Marietta police officers uncovered purses, wallets, jewelry and assorted clothing, all believed to be fake versions of designer brands, while executing search warrants Saturday at the Franklin Road market, Officer David Baldwin said. Eight people were arrested and additional arrests are expected, Baldwin said. Several of the businesses in the indoor flea market were operating without a license, and officers found zoning and fire code violations, Baldwin said. “There are quite a few legitimate businesses up and running there,” Baldwin told the AJC. The raid was the result of a months-long investigation into possible illegal activity at the flea market, located at 550 Franklin Road. The Marietta Fire Department and officials with the city’s Code Enforcement and Business License Division also participated in the raid. We’ll never understand how you can be standing at a bus top with a “Chanel” bag?? Either your priorities are all twisted or that purse is faker than Donald Trump’s “hair” Source
Second song from band’s upcoming Neighborhoods album is equally indebted to both classic Blink and iconic West Coast punk. By James Montgomery Blink 182’s Mark Hoppus Photo: Jason Kempin/ Getty Images It’s easy to compare Blink-182 ‘s brand-new “Heart’s All Gone” with ” Up All Night ,” the first song they released off their upcoming Neighborhoods album, mostly because the similarities begin and end right there. They are both songs by the band, and they are both on the new record. Perhaps, then, it’s best to contrast the two songs, because they’re different in just about every conceivable way. “Up All Night” premiered with much fanfare — on the band’s site and L.A. radio station KROQ — and was greeted with much the same. “Heart’s All Gone,” on the other hand, bowed without much notice: just a quick link on Mark Hoppus’ Google Plus page that took you to a new website and a simple instruction to “Command the ‘A’ ” (or, if you’re on a PC, “CTRL + A”). Doing so on the new site, of course, revealed not only lyrics but the song itself. And that’s when the differences between the two tracks really become apparent. Because while “Up All Night” synthesized all of the band’s previous endeavors (Plus-44, Angels & Airwaves, Box Car Racer) into something entirely new, “Heart’s All Gone” does the complete opposite: It is very much a blast from the past — both Blink’s and the West Coast punk scene that birthed them. With its breakneck guitars, yelped vocals and cascading drums, it sounds like something taken from Blink’s 1997 Dude Ranch album (or ’01’s Take Off Your Pants and Jacket ), but at the same time, it also recalls classic West Coast churn and burn,
‘He said he was gonna give me some beats, but he never did,’ Game says on ‘RapFix Live,’ speculating that lyrics may have upset ‘Ye. By Rob Markman, with reporting by Sway Calloway Game Photo: MTV News Game and Kanye West have had quite the chemistry in the studio. But after producing a song on each of Game’s first three albums, the Louis Vuitton Don will not be supplying any music for the West Coast rapper’s upcoming The R.E.D. Album and that may be Game’s fault. “I dunno, I think I dissed Amber Rose while she was with [Kanye] and I think that kinda tainted our relationship a little bit,” Game told Sway on Wednesday’s “RapFix Live” after he was asked when he’d be working with Yeezy again. “I reached out to Kanye at the beginning of the album and I seen him in L.A. He said he was gonna give me some beats, but he never did,” the Compton MC said. “I didn’t take it personal, I got nothing but love for ‘Ye and the things that we did in the past.” The pair first collaborated when West hooked up the beat for “Dreams,” a single off of Game’s 2005 debut, The Documentary. The two then got together again on “Wouldn’t Get Far,” the model-dissing track off Game’s second album, The Doctor’s Advocate, and completed the hat trick in 2008 with “Angel” on the former G-Unit member’s L.A.X. LP. But when the rapper drops The R.E.D. Album on August 23, the streak will end. While Game admitted to some wrongdoing — throwing shots at Yeezy’s former squeeze while the two were together — he insisted that he never directly disrespected Kanye. “I never shoot shots at Kanye, and if I do, it’s always competitive and I’ll clean it up on the next bar because I got a lot of love and a lot of respect for him.” Game also says he isn’t hard-pressed for a Kanye track or feature. “What I’m saying is, I’m not waking up begging to work with Kanye, number one, but if it happens it happens; if it don’t, it don’t.” Sway then asked whether Game’s persistent barbs at Jay-Z had anything to do with the distance between him and Kanye, considering the two are dropping their collaborative Watch the Throne album . Game didn’t think that was a factor, noting that Kanye and Jay have always had a close relationship, and Game has been baiting Hov for years. “I’ve been shooting shots at Jay from the beginning, but worked with ‘Ye throughout,” the Dr. Dre prot

So apparently this is an ad for Louis Vuitton featuring Angelina Jolie, shot by Annie Leibovitz, in Cambodia on one of her hunts for new children to give the good life to…. More interestingly, the Louis Vuitton people are saying that bitch isn’t wearing any make-up…they didn’t go out and say that this is how she looks when she wakes up in the morning because that would be a lie and the truth is that Angelina Jolie isn’t wearing make-up in this shoot, because this isn’t even her, this is in fact an artist rendition of her, or shit is photoshopped so much that it’s just a computer sketch of her…and who really cares…it is not like you can jerk off to it….but it is funny to call billion dollar companies out….for their lies they are stating in exchange for lots of press…or something.. Either way, who cares, she’s in clothes and that is boring to our kind. Where are the titty/pussy shots?! I mean that is her actual luxury purse…
Sean Kingston is in stable condition after a jet ski accident gone wrong . Cassandra Sanchez was the passenger aboard the jet-ski when it crashed into a bridge. According to Cassandra she and a friend went to the beach to ride jet ski’s with Sean and his friend. The two began to race and Sanchez says they “blasted past them[the friends]” because they were going so fast. Cassandra admitted that she began to get nervous and yelled “We can’t fit under there! Are we going to try and go under there? Sean stop!”To no avail, Sean lost control of the jet ski and slammed into the bridge. “[Sean] was coughing up blood, foam and pink stuff” … and when he finally opened his eyes, he kept repeating the words, “I’m hurting. I’m hurting” she says. Cassandra’s injuries were no where near as serious as Sean’s, who currently has a tube down his throat. The hospital plans to keep him for “for a couple more weeks.” Spotted Here Trey Songz, Fabolous & Sean Kingston Visit The ACS Children’s Center VIDEO: Sean Kingston Sings “Beautiful Girls” To Sick Children

Swizz says Kanye originally recorded three verses for ‘Skyscrapers’ track, leaving no room for his own contribution to the song. By Rob Markman, with reporting by Ade Mangum Swizz Beatz Photo: MTV News Swizz Beatz has friends in high places. For his upcoming Haute Living album, the multiplatinum producer reached out to U2’s Bono and Kanye West to lend their touch to a track called “Skyscrapers.” The thought of the three stars on a single track is enough to excite any music fan, but Swizz told MTV News how the song almost became a Kanye West solo affair. Swizz played the track for ‘Ye, whom he considers a brother, and got verbal confirmation from the Louis Vuitton Don that he would appear on the song. But after Kanye laid down his vocals and sent the track back, Swizz found that Yeezy had completed the entire song himself. “He gives me the track back, done, three verses, the chorus there and a bridge. So I’m like, there ain’t no room for me on that thing!” Swizz says laughing. “I’m like, ‘Not on this one, baby.’ So I got two extra verses in the stash.” As of now, there is no telling where those extra Kanye vocals will end up, but fans can expect to hear “Skyscrapers” and see a video for the track soon — even if the three featured artists don’t appear in the clip. Judging by Swizzy’s description of both the track and the video, fans should get ready for a thought-provoking experience. “I felt like there was a lot of things going on in the world that was bigger than all of us. So as of right now, we’re not in the video,” Swizz says of the song’s visuals, which he has already begun working on. “It’s like an art piece. It’s like a documentary of the world as we don’t know it, but kind of know it. You know these things are going on in the world, but you don’t really know to what degree they’re going on in the world. So I took time out to piece up a couple of visuals that represent that — moving visuals. Right now, me, Bono, Kanye, we’re trying to figure out what’s the right way to have that message.” Swizz warns that since the video is still in development, things can change between now and the release. Are you looking forward to hearing Swizz’s collaboration with Bono and Kanye? Let us know in the comments.
