Amber Rose Covers Urban Ink + Inked Magazines
Wiz' boo thang is looking extra aggressive on her cover for next month's issue of Urban Ink. On the flipside, the newly 30 year old gets a little sexier for Inked. In their article, Amber talks tats and also about her inspiration for her trademark hairstyle.
When I was a little girl I used to love Sinead O'Connor's video and song 'Nothing Compares 2 U'. I knew I wanted to look as beautiful as she did one day, so when I was old enough to make my own decisions, at 19, I cut it off...It's been over eight years now. Once I did it, I never went back.
Here are both covers:
Hotness.

Latest On The NBA Lockout: No Resolutions In Sight
In short, nearly the worst kind of news. The NBA and NBPA met for another long mediated session Thursday. The result? At around 7:35 EST Adam Silver and Peter Holt held a press conference to announce that talks have broken down and no further meetings are scheduled.
Silver would not confirm any further cancelations of games, but the mood is extremely grim.
Silver did confirm that the issue that lead to the breakdown between the owners and union was back to BRI. There had been a significant amount of talk about the issues being systemic issues, particularly the luxury tax and revenue sharing. Silver revealed that the union had lowered its offer to 52.5 percent of BRI, with the owners holding the line at 50/50, still.
Ken Berger reported Monday that the owners’ 50/50 offer was back to a 49-51 range. The question is whether the concessions made in the systemic issues pushed the players back to a flat 50/50. Silver also said that the two sides were “far apart” on systemic issues.
Silver told reporters that the players in essence wanted a trade-off. In essence, if the players were conceding on BRI, they wanted more from the systemic issues.
SO in essence, we ain't gettin no damn season. :: sucks teeth ::

Soulja Boy Arrested For Weed Possession; He Had in $70, 000 Cash + Drugs!
SO WTF is going on with future Bobby Brown? TMZ reports that Soulja Boy was arrested in Temple, GA this morning. He was apparently being stopped for a routine traffic stop when the officer probably got a whiff of the air and searched the car. Here's the skinny:
...during the stop, cops found a "substantial amount" of marijuana and cash inside the vehicle." Soulja and the 4 other men were all arrested.
Law enforcement sources tell us officers also found guns inside the car -- though it's unclear if any of the men had the proper licenses to be in possession of the firearms.
One source with knowledge of the situation tells us there was roughly $70,000 in cash and drugs in the car.
Well I mean I can't say I'm shocked but Soulja has just GOT to do something more with his life. Lately its only been lack luster music and mixtapes, twitter beefs, fly by night girlfriends, drugs and tattoos. Jesus take the wheel. Someone pray for the boy.

Lil' Wayne Working On Sequels To 'I Am Not A Human Being' & 'Rebirth'
This man sure loves his sequels....in a recent interview Young Money's 2nd man in charge Mack Maine let the cat out of the bag about Weezy trying his hand at repeats of the two projects. Check out the scoop via Rap-Up.com:
Mack Maine revealed that Weezy is working on a follow-up to his rock albumRebirth and hip-hop project I Am Not a Human Being. “He’s, like, 12 songs in, and it’s crazy. He went left. He’s in Martian land right now,” the Young Moneypresident told MTV News of Human Being 2.
While both albums did not achieve as much commercial success as Tha Carterseries, Weezy uses them as an outlet to express his different tastes. “He gets to show his rock side, he gets to show the gangsta side and talk to the women on one side,” said Mack. “On I Am Not a Human Being, he is definitely showing some weirdo, left-brain, I’m-not-from-here type side. He can say what he wants. There’s no boundaries or limits.”
The diverse music will appeal to his various fan bases. “You have different audiences and different preferences, different demographics of people that like to hear different music,” he added. “He captures all those different audiences and then at a concert or a show, you bring all those different people together. You bring your Rebirth rock people, you bring your Carter people, and you bring your I Am Not a Human Being [crowd], and you have a great show. That’s why we sell out arenas every night.”
Not sure about this route for Weezy, but when you're a man of his status I guess you can do whatever you please musically, whether they're mistakes or not. What do you guys think? Are you looking forward to the sequels?

Rihanna Gets In Trouble For Grabbing Strippers Inappropriately?!
So the picture above is Katy Perry, not a stripper but we all know Rihanna is a fan of the ladies but this is just ridiculous. Peep the story here:
Rihanna got in trouble for “repeatedly touching” lap dancers in a strip club. The ‘S&M’ hitmaker allegedly angered security guards at Stringfellows in London during a visit with her ex-boyfriend Matt Kemp on Wednesday because she couldn’t keep her hands off the topless performers and even put her head between one of the dancers’ legs.
A source told The Sun newspaper: “Rihanna couldn’t resist paying for a dance and loved watching the girls in action. But the guards weren’t happy as she was repeatedly touching them, ignoring all the warnings. “At one point she thrust her head between the legs of one of the dancers.”
The 23-year-old pop superstar and the baseball player partied until 2am in a private booth, where they were joined by celebrity hairdresser Adee Phelan and retired world heavyweight champion boxer David Haye.
Earlier in the night, Rihanna – who was named Esquire’s Sexiest Woman Alive 2011 earlier this week – sang Guns N’ Roses songs at the Nove Karaoke Bar in London’s West End.
The sexy singer – who is in the U.K. on tour – went to the bar with several of her staff to celebrate a crew member’s birthday and she treated the party to beers and vodka shots and food including pizza and garlic bread.
Rihanna couldn’t stop grabbing the microphone and also performed renditions of her own tracks and Kings of Leon’s ‘Sex on Fire’.
What are you guys thinking? Sexual deviant or girls just wanna have fun?

Drake Talks Loving Nicki, Being Hurt By Rihanna, Naked Pictures and More with Elle
Here are some highlights from Drizzy’s chit chat with the good folks over at ElleMagazine. Looks like he was really sad over that little Rihanna fling. Read on people and don’t forget Take Care hits your ears this November:
On loneliness:
“When you’re on the road and moving city to city, when someone isn’t there at the end of the night, you feel empty. The 15 or 20 seconds after a man reaches his climax is the realest moment he’ll ever have in his life. And if you happen to be with somebody that isn’t someone you want to converse with, you start feeling like, I wish I was just here watching ‘True Blood’ by myself.”
On his fake Twitter marriage to Nicki Minaj:
“I don’t know if we were really pretending. I’d marry Nicki. I think Nicki would be one of the only people that would understand me at the end of all of this and be able to love me.”
On bringing girls home to mom:
“The most intense thing I’ve ever done was bring a girl to Passover dinner. [My mom] just wants me to be happy, but I’m sure she’d love it if I married a Jewish girl.”
On receiving naked pictures:
“If you send them without me asking, it’s like, You’ve done this before. But I’m away a lot. If there’s a woman I’m into, I might want to get a picture from her to handle business myself, as opposed to doing something I might regret.”
On threesomes:
“I’ve never had one. I swear. I’m a one-woman kind of guy.”
On being hurt by Rihanna:
“At the time it hurt, but she didn’t mean to. I’ll never put that on her. I was hurt because I slowly started to realize what it was. I guess I thought it was more. That was the first girl with any fame that paid me any mind. You spend days reading about this person in magazines. All of a sudden you have this number-one song and you’re at some birthday party and there she is. And you’re just some naive kid from Toronto staying in some shitty-ass hotel who got invited to this party on a whim. That’s just how it happened.”
Props to Complex.

Sneek Peek: Beyonce "Countdown"
Beyonce just released a teaser for her upcoming music video to her single “Countdown” off her “4″ album, and the first clip you see of her it actually looks like her sister Solange. The video looks super cute, and very creative. She rocks a couple different hair styles in the video, and my favorite part is when she counts down to 3 and she shows her baby belly. The way she’s been handling her pregnancy in the public is just too adorable, I can’t wait to see the full video.

BBW Evelyn Lozada Goes In On Kimsha Artest For Dissing Shaunie O'Neal
As we all can tell after watching the last couple of episodes of Basketball Wives L.A Ron Artest’s ex wife Kimsha Artest has been no where in sight. I just thought because she really didn’t stand out on the premiere episode, I actually found her really boring. So Kimsha was pretty pissed that she was cut from the episodes and she wanted to blame everyone except for herself for lacking a personality. She went in on Shaunie, Evelyn and Laura on facebook saying “I see they cut me off the show and left buckle a– b*tches. Shaunie oneal can kiss my a**, she kisses a** to that Evelyn b*tch and gets the b*tch who f*cked her husband and cut her a check but cant handle a real woman. FOH!” A few hours ago Evelyn took to twitter to respond to Kimsha’s statement, and of course it was very entertaining!
Evelyn tweeted:**CLEARING THINGS UP** @ShaunieONeal does not have anything 2 do with the LA show!If your scenes were edited then that means u were a NMFF!
Evelyn tweeted:I think it’s ridiculous 2 place blame on someone if your scenes didn’t make the cut! Everything we say doesn’t! Some more than others.
Evelyn tweeted:FYI – I’m not kissing anyone’s ass or vice versa! I been friends with Shaunie for 6 years now, way before BBall Wives existed! #Loyal
Evelyn tweeted:I’m not taking shots either, but some of the shit I read is just plain stupid! I’m being a realest & keeping it 100! Blame your self! #Boom
Evelyn tweeted: @ShaunieONealI love u 2! Tired of people blaming u 4 every damn thing that happens! So not cool 2 me!

Video Premiere: The Dream "Long Gone"
The Dream just premiered his music video for his single “Long Gone” off his new free album “1977″. Once you listen to this song you can tell he was probably talking about his failed marriage with Christina Millian, even the girl in the video some what resembles her. I’m not going to lie while I was listening to the song I thought my ears were going to start bleeding while he was singing “lon-lon-lon-lon-gon-gon-gon” OMG how annoying.
New Song: Rihanna "We Found Love"
Rihanna just debuted her highly anticipated new single “We Found Love” featuring Calvin Harris off her upcoming sixth album which is set to be released on November 21st. The song is a little techno pop and I’m not too crazy about it, but it’s bound to get stuck in my head because I’m pretty sure I’m going to hear it on the radio a thousand times per day. Even though I’m not crazy about it I can’t help but to want to dance as soon as the song goes on.

Kreayshawn Covers Complex Magazine+Talks Rick Ross, Drugs & Pimping
Kreayshawn covers the October 2011 issue of Complex magazine where she actually shares it with Kid Cudi. I’m so not a Kreayshawn fan I actually find her very annoying, but after reading her interview with Complex I am kind of fascinated by her. I had my own thoughts of the way she grew up and how her life was, and I was wrong about somethings, but don’t get it twisted I still find her very annoying. In the issue Kreayshawn talks about pimping girls, drugs, Rick Ross and much more.
On dealing drugs and pimping: “I quit IKEA and started trapping full-time,” she recalls. “I was driving around in a pink Mustang at two in the morning, no license, with like two 15s in the trunk, serving knots. Then these girls I met, they were on their hustle, too. They brought me this new idea, it was safer than selling drugs. I posted the links for them, took the anonymous pictures, and set up the dates and prices.”
On her authenticity:“I never looked at myself as a marketable person. I just try to let my personality shine through. Do you think a 16-year-old girl gives a fuck about where I’m from or what I’ve done? No, she loves the songs.”
On Rick Ross: “I didn’t know that we were still on Ustream. It was just me goofing off with friends. I don’t have any problems [with Rick Ross], but I can see how it looks that way.”
