This girl Haley King is quickly becoming my new favorite. It was love at first sight with me and Haley’s boobs, so I knew I had to find out more about them. Here’s a video of the pair tandem skydiving, along with some bonus pictures from Haley’s Twitter and another video. Who knows? If this young love keeps up, maybe some day we’ll get to do a tandem dive of our own. Only, I prefer to tandem skydive facing each other. And in bed. With my face motorboating her giant pillows. It’s more intimate that way.
Like we told you, Lil Wayne likes paying producers about as much he likes NYC. Two beatsmiths—DJ Infamous and Drew Correa—are suing the New Orleans rapper’s Young Money Entertainment label for unpaid royalties, reports TMZ. Two different producers — Andrews “Drew” Correa and Marcos “Infamous” Rodriguez — filed federal lawsuits this week against Wayne’s label, Young Money Entertainment… Continue
Black Men Battle Stereotypes In Florida Not only is this just in Florida, but nationwide: They are more likely to get shot, go to jail, drop out of school, end up in foster care, be abandoned by their fathers and have children of their own while they’re still teenagers. Compared with other Americans, young black men have the statistical odds stacked against them. But statistics only reveal trends; they don’t define an individual. In in-depth interviews with more than a dozen young black men, ages 15 to 28 — from honor students to jail inmates, star athletes to aspiring executives — the voices so rarely heard in public forums spoke out on being the most profiled segment of society. For many, the fear of ending up like Trayvon Martin — the unarmed teen shot to death by Sanford Neighborhood Watch volunteer George Zimmerman — is far too tangible. At the least, their age, gender and skin color make them regularly subject to suspicion. They felt they had to be better than the next guy just to stay even. “Sometimes it hurts,” says Jaboris Haynes, 19, who grew up in poverty with his mother and sister in Apopka. “When I was younger, I thought of being a different race and wondered what it would be like. The message I got about being a young black man wasn’t a good message. I always felt like somebody was after me, like they were judging me, just because I’m a black male.” Having escaped the pressure of gangs to win a scholarship to Florida A&M University to study civil engineering, he still feels pressure “not to be a statistic.” “I want people to know that I’m a lovable person, I’m kind, I can be a good friend, I’m reliable, trustworthy,” he says on a break from his summer job as a camp counselor. He slumps forward, shaking his head. “But being a young black man, you have a lot of people talking down on you.” No matter how wealthy, how educated, how well-dressed and well-mannered, all the young men interviewed reported being profiled because of their skin color. For some, it meant being stopped, questioned and frisked by police. For others, it was more subtle: a car door that locks as they walk past or pull up to a traffic light, a sales clerk who eyes their pockets suspiciously, a white woman in an elevator who clutches her purse when a young black man steps in and the doors close. Mark Lark, 22, is going into his senior year at the University of Central Florida, studying architecture. One of only two black students in his major, he also serves as vice president of the local student chapter of the American Institute of Architects, volunteers to mentor college-bound minorities and works at the Central Florida YMCA. With a year to go to graduation, he already has business cards printed. But his real mission is to be a role model for the young black men who come after him. And in so doing, he hopes to persuade those who judge simply on skin color to rethink their assumptions. “Trust me, instead of being in your face, now it [racism] is more subtle,” he says. “Instead of, ‘Hey, boy, you shouldn’t be drinking out of that water fountain,’ it’s ‘Why is this [black] person doing that?’ “What I do with my life — I do this to show a better example of my culture and my race. There are sophisticated, well-mannered, ambitious black males in the community that aren’t going to be a degradation to society, that are actually going to help the economy, help the U.S. and help the world.” Discuss..

Here’s another New Black Kid on the Block for your listening pleasure. A few weeks back BOSSIP had the pleasure of meeting this young man and we thought we would share some of the music we heard from him, along with his story. Check out his video for “OMG” below: Here are some details about Krushai: Biltmore Music Group has announced the release of “Legal” by their debut artist, Krushai. This Charlotte, NC based artist has been performing since he was eleven (11) years old. Krushai’s music reaches back to bring the old school hip-hop flavor painted with a new school twist. “I want to be the new face of new beginnings in the music industry,” says Krushai. Krushai is finally getting a chance to do what he has been waiting so long to do. He has just released his first single entitled “Legal,” a song that illustrates what teenagers dream about–the day that they become “Legal”. This is the time when a young person comes of age and is able to embrace adulthood. There is nothing holding them back from life, love, tattoos, piercings, curfews or anything else that they are now “Legal” to do. Listen to the lyrics and appreciate double entente when he writes…take a sip of this tonight…meaning a taste, a sip of your new life now that you are “Legal”. Because this is a very serious subject, one which most parents are not looking forward to, Krushai is very careful to handle the message in a fun yet mature manner. “I wanted to position the lyrics so that the young people would understand that even though you are “Legal” it does not mean you can go completely wild,” Krushai states. “I am ecstatic about Krushai’s maturity in his lyrics and musicality of this newly released single, “Legal” says Biltmore Music Group CEO Shawn Wilson. “When the world hears the tasteful yet provocative lyrics, they will be clamoring for more and anxiously awaiting the release of his debut album entitled Dream Catcher. This Charlotte-based Music Group is working hard to establish itself throughout the music world as one of the next premier independent labels. “I want people to experience everything that they have ever imagined through my music,” states Krushai. With tracks such as “The Perfect World”, “OMG”, “Raybans On”, and “We Major”, the Biltmore Music family is confident that listeners will not be disappointed.

Losing money over some poon-tang? That’s that isht YMCMB don’t like Lil Wayne Wants Drake To End Beef With Chris Brown According to TMZ reports : Lil Wayne and the rest of the Young Money crew want Drake to put an end to his beef with Chris Brown … STAT — because the bad blood is bad for busine$$. It’s a sign that as bad ass as rap may be … the bottom line is the bottom line. Sources close to Drake tell TMZ, Drizzy has received several calls from Weezy, Birdman, Mack Maine and more — urging the rapper to extend an olive branch to Brown after last week’s nightclub brawl in NYC. Sources tell us, Wayne and co. are worried the rift will affect business — since Brown appears on several tracks with Young Money members and, pure and simple, Brown = hits. We’re told Drake doesn’t want to reach out to Breezy until he knows CB doesn’t actually blame him for last week’s melee — despite what Brown’s lawyer has been saying … that Drake was one of the aggressors. We’re told Young Money’s on Drake’s side no matter what — but as one source put it, “Making money matters most.” We can hear Wayne and Birdman now: “Aye, bay-bee, you gotta call that boy Breezy and make it cool ya ‘eard me?” Considering that Nicki Minaj features Chris on her popular single, “Right By My Side”, Cash Money definitely does not want to miss an opportunity to make it rain on some hoes over some “Bajan beef”.
