You know, I loved my around the way girl chica; but its over. Look how she is flaunting that trincate that Anthony dude bought her. I said use him for the lonely nights, I didn’t say strut his gawdy jewelery around. The good news is that she is still down to be in my new video ‘Money Outside’ later this month. For that, she is forgiven and still will receive booty calls but other than that its over diva. No more hood luv, just booty calls!
P.S.
Lol, at the false natural pose of her hand showing off her rock. Gotta love divas.
And for those who are expecting nude pics of our booty call sessions, sorry there will be none of that but if you want to see how the sessions start, here you go:
Eminem announced that he will give away two free songs to every fan that purchases a CD copy of his upcoming album Relapse.
“I’m giving away an extra free song with my album if you buy the Relapse CD. I’m still on the run, my darling,” the rapper posted on his Twitter page.
Also included was a link to his online store, which revealed a number of packages consumers who pre-order can select from.
Going beyond selling consumers a traditional CD, Eminem is upselling fans with a menu of items to choose from in addition to purchasing the CD.
For instance, fans can purchase the “Limited Deluxe” package for $129.99, which includes an 24×24 print hand signed by Eminem, a collectable Relapse pill bottle, the CD with full-color album artwork and a download of the “3AM” video.
Eminem is selling limited edition vinyl of the album for $23.99, while the CD is going for $19.99.
Consumers who buy either of these packages will receive a link on May 19 to download the two exclusive songs, as well as the “We Made You” video.
The physical items (CD’s, T-shirts, posters) ship within three weeks of ordering, despite the fact that the rapper’s Relapse CD is due to physically land in stores May 19.
Rapper 50 Cent has landed a new deal that will see him starring in a remake of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic novel “The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.”
50 Cent has been cast opposite Forest Whitaker to star in the movie, which has been re-titled Jekyll and Hyde.

Jekyll becomes Hyde, a ruthless, violent character, after drinking a mysterious potion he concocted in his labortory.
The book has been turned into a movie over a hundred times over the past century, because of its gripping tale of battle between good and evil.
Famous actors who have starred in Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde include John Barrymore, Spencer Tracey, Jack Palance and Anthony Perkins.
Jekyll and Hyde starring 50 Cent is being directed by Abel Ferrara, who has lensed movies like King of New York (1990), Bad Lieutenant (1992) and Body Snatchers (1993).
At press time, no release date was available for Jekyll and Hyde starring 50 Cent and Forrest Whitaker.
Yonkers Hip-Hop star DMX is free after serving over 90 days in jail on drug, fraud, and animal cruelty charges, a representative confirmed with AHH.
The rapper was released from ”Tent City,” aka the Maricopa County Jail, late yesterday afternoon (May 13).
DMX’s conviction and prison sentence was a culmination of a 2008 filled with legal woes.
The rapper’s last arrest resulted in an extradition back to Phoenix after attempting to hide out in producer Scott Storch’s Florida mansion.
Originally, DMX, born Earl Simmons, was to serve only 90 days in jail.
His tenure was extended when he faced additional charges for allegedly assaulting a corrections officer over a food dispute.
During his incarceration, X revealed plans to start a Christian ministry upon his release.
DMX was originally supposed to release a double album, one with his Hip-Hop comeback titled Walk With Me Now, the other a gospel album titled You’ll Fly with Me Later.
Both projects remain in limbo.
At press time, DMX has not released a statement confirming his plans for the rest of 2009.
