No really? "Black children must die"?



Out of the hordes of 'people' that are involved in Ashanti's career, not ONE SINGLE person put their hand up and said "ummm, I think this may piss people off?"



All publicity is NOT good publicity - I can't see this inspiring people to buy Ashanti's album.

I don't expect much from Ashanti, though. She's a product of marketing -- like Rihanna, Ciara and Cassie, other no-talent chicks who would be nowhere without marketing and a weave.


Oh dear, I've never heard of these people. Being an old fogie sucks.

Well since she's not

OR

Beyonce....



this really is the absolute best she can do to keep the money rolling in.



Her family must be so proud.

Pamela, your right this is GROSS. I have no real problem with "NO TALENT" singers. Why should Britney Spears or Jessica Simpson make all the money for just having a "pretty face", but this is ridiculous!!!! I was an Ashanit fan, but no more. But how can you expect more from Irv Gotti. He calls himself Gotti after John Gotti. You know what John thought of Blacks and Puerto Ricans? Think of all the derogatory racial slur and YOU'VE GOT IT. I don't understand why LOW CLASS and MORAL people always rise to the top.

i scrolled down to read that Crabby McCrab was meant for blackfolk, but anytime a Dem attacks another one, I think its just as bad.

Dan Boren actually should be nominated for the Crabby Mc Crab award if I read the guidelines of it correctly.


Also,



I can see how Ashanti may have let her career go, but give Rihanna a break. She's out there, and doing pretty good. Plus, anytime your record label's TOP DAWG is reduced to "Damn Homie, High School you was the man homie, F- happen to you?"

A hot one line, you may be on the wrong team. 50 put a very succesful Hit Job on Murder Inc. and from that point out nobody from that label was able to recover...



Plus if were really being honest, Beyonce was also one of those who dropped in the Early 2000's. She crushed most everybody. A. Keyes being a rare exception.

Ah Nita,


Ciara can dance and Rhianna took her weave out! Now Cassie...ugh she is definitely effing for tracks hence the photos of her and what's his name on Mother's Day no less. Now we're giving Ashanti more press coverage than she's gotten in years. The producers and writers are to blame for the equally crappy material with which they perform hence the gimmics. Palow Da Don can only use but so many GarageBand loops to create his masterpieces.

Okla. Dem calls Obama liberal, declines to endorse



OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Democratic Rep. Dan Boren of Oklahoma said Tuesday Barack Obama is "the most liberal senator" in Congress and he has no intention of endorsing him for the White House.



However, Boren will vote for Obama at the Democratic National Convention in Denver in August and will vote Democratic on Nov. 4.



"I think this is an important time for our country," Boren said in a telephone interview. "We're facing a terrible economic downturn. We have high gasoline prices. We have problems in our foreign policy. That's why I think it's important."



Boren, the lone Democrat in Oklahoma's congressional delegate, said that while Obama has talked about working with Republicans, "unfortunately, his record does not reflect working in a bipartisan fashion."

FYI Nita, I'm gonna steal that line:)


LOL, Me, too. Everytime I hear a joke about a weave, it reminds me of Sinbad.

...no-talent chicks who would be nowhere without marketing and a weave.


FYI Nita, I'm gonna steal that line:)

Just when you think people can't get anymore stupid, they prove you wrong.

...sigh. I guess they're trying to be edgy and provocative. Whatever happened to just stripping? Oh, that's now passe.

World's worst idea. Is no one supervising these people?

I haven't studied Ashanti since she 'won' the battle of new divas against Tweet by her marketing team slashing the prices of her debut to like 6.99 to bump sales up. Lot of makeup, no sense. At least Nelly seemed to genuinely like her, so that was a plus.


I don't expect much from Ashanti, though. She's a product of marketing -- like Rihanna, Ciara and Cassie, other no-talent chicks who would be nowhere without marketing and a weave.

This is sad and stupid. I can't believe she thought this was a good idea. Murder is not funny, it's not hard, she's not down. This is gross.

Where's Bobcat Bob Johnson and Jam Donaldson of Hot Ghetto Mess? They shouldn't be too far behind Ms. Douglas' Universal Crime Network.


Anything to sell records these days? These young women don't even respect themselves; how can we expect them to respect our children with those booty-shaking videos? Ashanti wants to get paid and doesn't care how she goes about it.

Not really all that surprising. After all, she was signed by a record company that considered being a thug and gangster a sound business decision. This is just an extension of the violence and self hatred that is sold to the black community via Hip Hop and BET.
