TI Is BACK!

Hey folks,

I missed ya'll. Finally back out of hiatus, and I feel refreshed! Wonder what I'll have for you guys in the days to come. God only knows... But I'll try to keep it fresh for ya'll... Anywayz, here's the news...

TI IS BACK!... With Restrictions


Seems like everybody's favorite rapper (besides Lil' Wayne) has finally been released! There are a few catches, though... TI is going to have an 11PM curfew.

After serving 30 days under house arrest, he will officially be able to go home with some restrictions. He will be under 23 days of supervised release and he will have to serve 400 hours of community service and be on probation for the next three years. But it's better than still being in jail, right?

My view, TI manned up to his consequences and is dealing with it well. Let's get back to putting out some music! I wanna see what his music is gonna sound like after he filmed that "Road To Redemption" reality series...

Unfortunately to everyone's dismay, he is expected to report to Dismas Charities Atlanta West correctional center where he will spending three months. But he's outta jail now.

R&N - 04/01/09 - Obama Fires Cabinet

Obama Fires Entire Cabinet!!!

Hey everyone,


Breaking news... According to BET, Obama had a press conference in the UK. Due to the economic recession, he feels that his staff has been incompetent and decided to fire his entire cabinet!



UN Ambassador - Beyonce

One of the most recognizable faces in the world, Beyonce Knowles will represent the United States at the United Nations. President Obama says he believes the pop singer’s star power – her likeable personality and her feisty alter-ego Sasha fierce - will be the perfect combination to push his agenda to star-stunned leaders around the world.



Secretary of Defense - TI

T.I., "the King of South," knows something about defending himself and the people around him. “Don’t mess with T.I., “said President Obama. “Nobody’s got swagga like him. He’ll use every weapon in his arsenal – literally - to keep America safe. The President added: “I tell you, big things are poppin.”


Secretary of Energy - Lil' Wayne

The President said nobody is more fit to lead the Department of Energy than the raw embodiment of Hip Hop power: Lil Wayne. The multi-talented collaborator will come up with a master mash-up plan for every state, dropping ideas for a super-grid that will be powered from his hometown New Orleans. Bryan “Birdman” Williams will be deputy. “This is perfect. The block is already hot,” says Weezy.”

Secretary of Commerce - Jay-Z

After meeting with President Obama last night, Shawn “Jay-Z Carter said he’s ready to bring a little Bed-Stuy to Washington. All the observations he made about trade and the movement of goods in the 1980s might apply to these tough economic times. Jigga says he’s confident the United States can be a fair partner in trade and still hold down the world economy.

Secretary of Education - Nas

With the appointment of Nas to the Department of Education, President Obama hopes the “I know I Can” rapper will inspire the next generation of Americans. “He will bring a mix of inspiration and a zero-tolerance for failure,” says President Obama. In fact, if a principal’s school doesn’t make the grade, there will be no discussion. He or she will be immediately ethered.”

Secretary of the Treasury - 50 Cent

Rapper 50 Cent says he has turned 50 cents into hundreds of millions of dollars. “Look at that profit margin,” the rapper exclaimed. “And I pay my taxes!” Driving down the deficit and getting the economy moving again will be just as easy, President Obama says. He plans to pump money into a diverse portfolio of smart investments. “Tim Geithner has nothing on my man,” said Obama.

Secretary of Health and Human Services - Alicia Keys

Alicia Keys has shown her compassion for people through her non-profit work with children around the world. Now, its time for her to bring her vision of hope and goodwill for all humanity to Washington. “No one, no one, no one, can get in the way of this appointment," the President said.

Secretary of the Interior (Grill) - Paul Wall

President Obama says the papers have criticized him for not appointing a fair amount of his cabinet from the South. “All of that changes with my nomination of Paul Wall,” said the President. "Nobody understands the heartland like Paul Wall. In fact, he believes Wall’s appointment will turn Texas, the reddest of Red states, blue during the next election.

Secretary of State - Queen Latifah

"Who can fill the big shoes that Secretary Hillary Clinton is leaving," asked President Obama. Who has the toughness and grace to negotiate agreements with the hard-liners in North Korea and Iran?" President Obama said, “I’ve seen her sing jazz notes, and I’ve seen her “Bring Down the House,” and who can forget “Ladies First?” The people – and women - of the United States and all around the world are in good hands, he added.

Secretary of Homeland Security - Rick Ross

The President says he trusts rapper Rick Ross knows a lot about security. He has the ability to tap into his criminal justice past while distancing himself from it at the same time. “He’ll be unafraid of confronting enemies of the state,” said President Obama. “He’s the Boss, said the President. “This is Deeper than Rap.”

White House Press Secretary - Andre 3000

Andre 3000 is a master storyteller and communicator. He will use the power of his words to create lasting images in the minds and hearts of journalists and the American public with “sick lyricism, crazy metaphors and unforgettable one-liners,” President Obama believes. He’ll begin every press conference with the a teaser for the White House Press Pool: “it's beginning to look a lot like what? Follow my every step, take notes ..."

April Fools everybody! :-D

R&N - 03/27/09 - TI Jail Time Delayed

TI's Stays Out of Jail... For Now

Hey everybody,

So if you have been keeping up with the current events of TI, the judge finally gave TI his sentencing to a year in prison today. HOWEVER, due to previously agreed-upon commitments, he will not enter prison before May 19. What a break! So, he has about an extra month left of freedom... I don't know what the restrictions are up until then, but that's a lil' more time he can spend with his family.

TI also delivered an inspiring 10 minute speech to the judge that outlined his past, present and future, while stating that he is committed to turning his mistakes into positive results. Later, T.I. held a press conference where he thanked his family and all of his fans and supporters.Here is a quick clip of what went down.

New Chris Brown Update


So here’s the update…..

It has been confirmed by TMZ.com, along with People Magazine, that Chris Brown and Rihanna have reconciled and are back together again. Sources say the couple is staying at a house owned by Sean “Diddy” Combs in Florida. It was also rumored that Brown contacted Rihanna on her birthday, and even gave her gifts to try to get back into her good graces. He has also been going to anger management classes to help his pending case, which sources say may be delayed while prosecutors continue to gather evidence.

But in the mean time, Chris’ career is slipping further into a black hole. Ciara and Flo-Rida have reportedly cancelled their duets with the singer/actor. ‘Turntables’, a single off of Ciara’s upcoming album, will no longer feature Brown. Flo-Rida also decided to take Brown off a project the two were working on.



Hollywood also seems to be dumping Brown. Promotion for the 2010 movie ‘Bone Deep’, featuring Idris Elba and T.I., will not include Brown. But one director says he is standing by troubled singer. Melvin James still plans on working with Brown for the movie ‘Caramel’, which will start production later this year.

Swagger Like Us


Hey everyone,

I hope everyone's getting a taste of that new single out called Swagger Like Us... If you haven't it's composed of Jay-Z, T.I., Lil' Wayne and Kanye West. It was SUPPOSED to be released on T.I.'s album, but it mysteriously disappeared off the track list for Paper Trail... I wondered why, then I got an e-mail that explained it all... Jay is having it put on HIS new album, lol. Go figure...

Any comments or ideas on that one, feel free to leave them.

For those who haven't heard it or need to hear it again, check it out.
