Saturday, July 26, 2008 Fashion Police makes a booty-call? POST A COMMENT 'guessing the police down in Flint, MI. don't have much crime to worry about if they're wasting time cracking-down on how-much-Crack-you-have-in-your-Fashion -- (no, 'not talking about a new illegal-crack-drug craze here) -- it's about how much booty-crack -- should be allowed when wearing those sagging pants -- ('usually by teens in low-riding pants) -- 'exposing some rear boxers. "I don't know why they're wasting time on fashion," offered Delon Williams (14), of Flint. Others call "the policy stupid and a waste of time." One dude said: "saggers are unwittingly emulating a fashion based on a negative lifestyle born of gangs and jail." - yeah, maybe some kids seen the style in a Hip Hop video...but, should it be outlawed? "(Stopping) saggin' is not going to lower the price of gas," said one Woman. Some sensible minds are prevailing however: Lawyers with the American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan, proclaimed the policy unconstitutional, saying "Cops have taken the city's ordinance too far." I'm Sure, there are a few unsightly things that could be illegal...'put me down for saggy balls on display; or too much bikini-camel-toe on the beaches...but, don't ya think our streets are pretty safe by attacks of some low-riding pants? For more proof on how safe...'Just look at this video clip -- from an overseas TV station -- clearly they're all just having some fun: Source: Newsweek Labels: Fashion, Flint MI, Hiding in Hip Hop, Police, Saggers, Stupid Laws, unjustified verdict posted by Henry Cruz at 5:01 PM Sunday, May 11, 2008 Not Naming Names... POST A COMMENT Former MTV exec - just penned a memoir of his life in the hip hop industry as a peter-puffer... 'guess-in to push book sales...gaaak, he claims some of the folks in Hip-Hop are actually Gay. Using fake names, dropping clues -- (to pseudo-Out)-- various butt-pirates getting their Hip-Hop-freak-on-the-D.L. -- (or poss. to avoid those law-suits from high profile celebs if he did name-names). 'The book is not about outing people.' Dean Said. 'I wrote it so that people realise the industry has a gay subculture and we are part of this music...' During Dean's interview on the Wendy Williams Radio show (see audio clip), the opening comments pretty much sum it up: He's a "Nasty tattle-tale..." Wendy says. "I'm almost bored with the topic..." -- over the course of the interview hints are dropped...but, none confirmed... boomp3.com In an excerpt posted online, (it reads like an E. Lynn Harris novel): “...like two lovers in heat. We wanted each other badly. We explored each other’s bodies as we peeled off our clothes and strewn them throughout the room...Preston was ferocious in bed...We kissed tenderly, and then passionately. Our tongues danced in each other’s mouths.” Hmm, Yawn...sounds very Low-Rent- and Trashy...And if you really think about it for a second...I'm not buying a tell-all Hip-Hop book that keeps me guessing... worse, makes the reader do all this extra work to figure out who the bone smugglers. Snoooze, Wake me when actual names are revealed. Labels: Books, Gay Hip-Hop, Hiding in Hip Hop, Terrance Dean, Wendy Williams posted by Henry Cruz at 2:38 AM     ARCHIVES October 2005 .
