Krispy Kreme's "Best Friends" Is What's Hot in the Streets




In all honesty, if something happened to Money Maker Mike I don't know what I'd have done with myself. Would have been like losing Nate Dogg all over again. 

Raw emotion. Maybe not lyrically as good as Krispy's biggest hit so far, but still, it was just so powerful. The production value has come a long way too.

If you're a high school or college grad and aren't hiring Krispy Kreme to MC your festivities you're just flat out not in the game.

And if you've got a best friend, make sure you've got each others backs...RIP Tupac Shakur.

Screw it, lets roll his greatest hit:

It's Time We Had A Talk With the Hip-Hop Industry Over Holograms.




TMZ - For the first time in nearly a decade, TLC will be reuniting for a U.S. concert tour later this year -- and TMZ has learned, the late Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes will be making a special appearance. The group's rep tells us, Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins and Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas are currently in the planning stages of a massive 2012 reunion tour in the U.S. So far, we're told 5 major cities have already been booked -- and even more are in the works. But the big surprise ... we're told the group plans to pull a Tupac -- incorporating their deceased former member Left Eye in the shows, projecting her image on a big screen and working her vocals into the live performances.

Nope. No, no, no. Nope. This isn't going to work out guys. We can't have Hollywood, and specifically the rap/hip-hop/R&B industry monopolizing this cutting edge technology and using it for such trivial matters. I can't cosign on this. 

Tupac, I could have lived with, he could have been a sort of measuring stick, representing the line in the sand for the bare minimum your life had to have an impact for you to be worth memorializing via hologram. I'd have been fine with that. Unfortunately, the early results look like we're going the other way, that everyone from here on out may be even more trivial than Tupac. 

I'm sure "L" was a nice enough person (aside from that time she burnt down Andre Rison's house) and she might have touched a few people, I'm not saying I get a bit emotional when Waterfalls comes on, but someone surely does, but if we're going to go hologramming her then we're going to have to hologram every dead music artist.

Which if you want to do that, fine, but then we're going to force you to share that technology for good as well. For every Lisa Left Eye Lopes appearance you also need to produce an MLK "I Have a Dream" hologram. When Dave Grohl gets around to deciding he misses Kurt Kobain enough and goes back on tour with Nirvana, he'll  need to produce a JFK "Ask Not What Your Country Can Do For You" hologram. When Puffy decides he wants to make another boatload of cash and brings back Biggy, I don't know, he'll have to bring back Walt Disney or something...you get where I'm going with this?

It's a pretty cool technology, lets not waste it on a bunch of trivial money grabbing events for people who realize theirs profits to be made off the memory of their dead friends/fellow performers.

Pretty Sure Chris Farley Is Alive and Going by the Name of Kevin Farley


That's a terrible disguise bro


TMZ - Comic actor Kevin Farley -- younger brother of the late Chris Farley -- has been accused by his ex-GF of making death threats over the phone ... but Kevin is adamant she's lying through her teeth. Farley's ex, Fayrene Byrd-Doig, filed a request for a restraining order in L.A. County Superior Court ... claiming Kevin called her up on March 23, 2012 and said, "He was going to f**king kill [me]." But Kevin tells TMZ ... Fayrene is simply a "sick woman" who has concocted dangerous lies in an effort to get back at him for breaking things off with her in 2009. Kevin says, "She's been blaming me and harassing me ever since."

Hold on, what? Kevin Farley? Come on, you're not fooling anyone. Has Chris been alive this whole time and I had no idea. I mean, call off the Tupac search, lets focus on this for a little bit.  That there is Chris Farely, and frankly, he doesn't look like he's aged a day since his alleged death. Furthermore, I've never heard of Kevin Farley. In fact, I just checked his IMDB page and I'm now convinced more than ever that Kevin Farley is just a made up identification. The credits are just a mixed bag of things I've never even heard of and might just be made up, and credits to shows and movies so bad that there aren't enough people who actually watched them to definitively say whether he was or wasn't in it.  An easy page to fake without anyone catching on.

"The Jadagrace show?" Made up. Cellmates, Pretend Time, The Gold and the Beautiful...All Made up. Credits in the United States of Tara...this is a particularly shrewd move and I'm pretty sure all evidence of this show has been destroyed in an effort for America to save face with the rest of the world. "Wild Girls Gone." You can't make this shit up. 

I'll now be convinced till the day I die that Kevin Farley is actually Chris, flying under the radar all these years. It makes sense, I'd want to get away if David Spade just hanging on my coattails and following me around everywhere like a puppy dog. Guy just needed a break.
