Get Well: Tracy Morgan Rushed To Utah Hospital After Falling Unconscious At Sundance, Rep Says Altitude — Not Alcohol — Is To Blame

There’s nothing funny about this one. Tracy Morgan was being honored at a Sundance Film Festival event yesterday when sources say he was acting extremely intoxicated. The comedian ended up FALLING OUT after the event, but his rep says he had nothing to drink and blames it on the altitude. According to TMZ reports : Tracy Morgan was rushed to a hospital at the Sundance Film Festival — after the actor fell unconscious at an award ceremony … TMZ has learned. Tracy was being honored at the Creative Coalition Spotlight Awards in Park City, Utah — and sources tell TMZ, he appeared extremely intoxicated during his award acceptance speech. We’re told Tracy was escorted out of the building soon after his speech — and fell unconscious outside the building. Law enforcement sources tell us, an ambulance was then dispatched to Tracy’s location. We’re told Tracy was picked up and rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment. Amy Roberts, a spokeswoman for Park City Medical Center, tells TMZ no drugs or alcohol were found in Tracy’s system upon medical evaluation. Morgan’s rep, Lewis Kay, also released a statement saying, “From a combination of exhaustion and altitude, Tracy is seeking medical attention.” Kay adds, “He is with his fiancée and grateful to the Park City Medical Center for their care. Any reports of Tracy consuming alcohol are 100% false.” Tracy make sure you keep rested! It might sound crazy but altitude really can have some crazy effects on folks. More On Bossip!

Maino Mixes Hit Records With Street Bangers On New Tape

‘It’s album-quality music, it’s not just a bunch of throwaways,’ Green Lantern tells Mixtape Daily of Maino’s I Am Who I Am . By Rob Markman Maino Photo: MTV News Main Pick Headliners : Maino and DJ Green Lantern Representing : Brooklyn, New York Mixtape : I Am Who I Am: The Album Before the Album Real Spit : While Maino is known to keep close ties with the streets, the Brooklyn MC has a knack for making rap hits that transcend his ‘hood. From 2008’s “Hi Hater” to his T-Pain-assisted “All the Above” and his current Lil Wayne-featured banger “Cream,” Main has managed to keep a stash of radio gems but has never compromised his underground appeal. Now, as he gets set to finally release his sophomore album, The Day After Tomorrow, Maino leads first with a mixtape prelude, I Am Who I Am: The Album Before the Album . “It’s the album before the album, it’s album-quality music, it’s not just a bunch of throwaways,” the tape’s disc jock Green Lantern told Mixtape Daily. “With mixtapes, a lot of times, a lot of people do something where they’re rhyming over other people’s beats, they freestyling and stuff like that. I wanted to do something that was a little bit more different and something that I was used to doing,” Maino said. “I feel like one of my strong points is making hot records, making songs. So I wanted to do that right before my album was gonna drop.” I Am Who I Am features a handful of street odes. “Cream,” with Lil Wayne, is included, and why wouldn’t it be? The repetitive Rick Ross sample on the hook makes it memorable, while Main and Weezy’s focused vocals make it bang. “Yes Yes Ya’ll” featuring Lloyd Banks is another winner. The Hustle Hard boss trades bars with Banks over a bouncy beat that draws inspiration from Peedi Crakk’s 2003 single “One for Peedi Crakk.” Then there is “Last of the Mohicans” with Push! Montana. Over the pounding drum track, Maino and Montana rhyme about their struggles coming up. They draw a clear distinction on the song between themselves and the rappers who only portray a gangster’s lifestyle. Maino truly embodies everything that he raps about on I Am Who I Am and that’s what makes his tape so compelling. And just to think, this is only The Album Before the Album . Next up: The Day After Tomorrow. Joints to Check For

RZA To Produce Method Man’s Final Album

Read the original:

Method Man has recently been on the promotional trail for his new film, The Sitter . While doing interviews, he’s been asked about new music. Meth says his upcoming fifth album will be his last. Johnny Blaze took to the Wu-Tang Clan’s Facebook page to make the official announcement. The message simply read: “Method Man is officially working on his last album produced by the RZA.” This will be the first time RZA has produced a Method Man album in its entirety since his 1994 solo debut, Tical . Method Man and RZA have both grown since 1994, so we can’t wait to see what comes of their collaborative efforts. We hope it’s crack or crystal meth, considering the latter is the  slated title of the forthcoming project. Spotted at HipHopDX .

Herman Cain to Quit Presidential Race Amid Scandal?

Amid a flurry of salacious allegations, GOP Presidential candidate Herman Cain is thinking seriously about becoming former GOP Presidential candidate Herman Cain. All before a single vote has been cast in the race, no less. The Georgia businessman told his staff this morning that he’s “reassessing” his bid for the White House after yet another female accuser – Ginger White – came forward with accusations against him, specifically that they had a 13-YEAR affair. Ginger White Speaks on Herman Cain Affair The Iowa caucuses are scheduled for January 3. While he no longer has frontrunner status, polling indicates Cain could still be competitive in Iowa. Cain has denied the affair allegations in public and did so again during the conference call, but told his staff, “Obviously, this is cause for reassessment.” Before Ginger White, four other women accused Cain of sexual harassment during his tenure as head of the National Restaurant Association in the ’90s. He refuted those claims as well, but acknowledged that with White, he says, ” we have to reassess whether or not this is going to create too much of a cloud, in some people’s minds, as to whether or not they would be able to support us going forth.” Cain admits he knows White, but had only been trying to help her out financially … as a friend. No word if Gloria Cain will back him up on that one.

T.I. Calls Gays Complaining About Tracy Morgan Jokes "Un-American"

Remember Tracy Morgan’s homophobic rant earlier this year? No? Well T.I. does, and he thinks it was hilarious! The rapper brought the scandal back to life when he told Vibe that Morgan’s anti-gay jokes were the funniest of all time. The comments have Morgan toeing a fine line between staying under the radar and distancing himself from T.I., who’s reveled in “the funniest jokes I ever heard.” T.I. then ignited even more controversy. Not only does he find the anti-gay humor funny, he suggested that the backlash against Morgan’s stand-up is un-American. “They’re like, ‘If you have an opinion against us, we’re gonna shut you down,'” T.I. told Vibe . “That’s not American. If you’re gay you should have the right to be gay in peace.” “If you’re against it, you should also have the right to be against it in peace.” The rapper, who was recently freed from jail , later walked that last part back somewhat, saying that gays are not anti-American, but the actions of a select few are. “I believe you have the right to do whatever you want to do as long as you’re not hurting anyone. I was quoted correctly, but I was taken out of context,” he said. He says the U.S.A. is an “institution built around allowing us to speak peacefully and respectfully in opposition of any point or any topic that comes up,” T.I. added. He went on to add that he’s not even against same-sex marriage, and that members of the African-American community acts in the same, oversensitive way as well. Fair enough, but is what Morgan said, which was borderline hateful, really peaceful or respectful? And would T.I. react the same way to N-word-laden rants? Just curious. Thoughts on T.I.’s comments?
