Adrien Broner's Floyd Mayweather And Money Team Diss Track 'Slammer' Is Making Its Way Around Social Networking And Select Radio Stations


Adrien Broner and Floyd Mayweather prior to their current dispute
 
Former WBA champion, Adrien Broner, is spending time promoting his song "Slammer" which slams pugilists Floyd Mayweather, Ashley Theophane and the rest of the Money Team collective. The song is making its way around social networking and select radio stations. Some people like it. Some people do not. However, it is not a hit. The content and production are to blame.

Broner began his verses too early and too late during a few segments of the song, missing the beat at times by a few noticeable seconds. There are some overlaps there as well, leaving it disjointed, unlike the song it comes from, which is the hit "Panda" by rapper Desiigner. I was also unable to discern some of what Broner was saying at select parts of the track "Slammer" (then again, I don't really know what Desiigner is saying on most of "Panda" either, all I heard was "panda, panda, panda" and "I got broads in Atlanta" which is not the best message to send).

The producer of "Slammer" didn't do the best job with the song. The production on "Panda" is slicker, more polished. If Broner wants to be a rapper, they are going to have to improve the production on his tracks and sync them better. At the end of the day, "Slammer" is also not my type of song, as it is full of profanity and crude references to women, which doesn't set a good example for impressionable audiences. 

In closing, Broner better be careful Mayweather doesn't pay a  rapper to diss him back and call the track "Bowling Alley" (LOL I'm playing).

Rihanna's Tour In Support Of 'Anti' Album Flopping With Poor Sales Prompting Free Ticket Giveway

Reports indicate tickets sales for Rihanna's upcoming tour in support of her flopped, heavily slammed album "Anti" are flopping as well. The album "Anti" is currently mired in controversy over electronics company Samsung buying 1,000,000 copies for a dollar each and the RIAA certifying the album platinum, which the public is calling fake and cheating.


Billboard slammed Rihanna's Samsung stunt and refused to count the copies towards album sales

Now comes word that Rihanna's planned tour that Samsung paid to have booked in arenas around the world, underwriting the costs in anticipation of good publicity and getting their investment back, is flopping in a big way, prompting Jay Z's Roc Nation to give away free tickets. Samsung is already angry over the negative publicity they are getting on social networking for buying 1,000,000 copies of "Anti." With tour ticket sales in the toilet, they are not going to see return on their investment and are already saddled with bad publicity.


Many people on social networking are mocking Rihanna and Samsung over the sales stunt

Major label artists with Rihanna's type ego, do not like performing to half empty arenas. They are very proud and can't handle it. This is what Rihanna is facing. To save face, Jay Z's company will be giving away loads of tickets in online contests and to radio stations to fill the empty seats.

Nicki Minaj Booed At Summer Jam Concert In New York


Nicki Minaj stunned at booing during Summer Jam

Rapper and former "American Idol" host, Nicki Minaj, who recently left the show, along with co-host Mariah Carey, due to record low ratings, was loudly booed at New York’s massive Summer Jam concert, held by top hip hop radio station Hot 97.

All throughout Minaj's set, the crowd unleashed a flurry of boos, leaving the Young Money rapper dismayed at the audience's reaction. This year, Minaj has faced heavy criticism about the quality of her music, which may have contributed to the loud booing she experienced at Summer Jam.

Rihanna Slams Chris Brown For Saying He Does Not Want To Marry Her And Going Back To Karrueche Tran (Photo)

 

Chris Brown

Rihanna is angrily lashing out against ex-boyfriend Chris Brown, over statements he made in an interview last week that he does not want to marry her and he is too young to be thinking about that (no, you’re not Chris – you’re 24, not 14 – dude, you’re legal).

As stated in the column previously, never be disloyal to the person you claim you love by cozying up to and trying to get with their arch enemy. That’s foul. Clearly Brown thought so as not long after he has been hitting Rihanna where it hurts (pardon the pun) inviting her enemies to his birthday and doing incendiary interviews and tweets cutting her down to nothing. Brown was also spotted again with Karrueche at Wild 49.9’s Wild Jam yesterday (uh oh…LOL). Brown then disses Rihanna today on Twitter by tweeting, "She's not mine if she's everybody else's." Ouch! Shots fired!


Chris Brown and Jill Demling (As they say in hip hop, she hit it!)

It has messed up Rihanna’s head even more to the point the Chicago Sun Times states Rihanna called Brown and cursed at him something awful. I warned in the column a week ago that she should not challenge Brown, because he would escalate it and break her heart for her traitorous behavior.


Rihanna

If it were me under those circumstances I’d just quietly go about my business and not said anything to Brown. She keeps saying it’s over again, so leave the man alone and let him live his life. But Rihanna loves attention and playing out her love life on the internet for everyone to read about and that’s just not smart. Now she’s being criticized and slammed all over the internet for being a media whore. Don’t get me wrong, people shouldn’t lie about being single if they are not and vice versa, but every single detail doesn’t need to be online for public consumption.

Chris Brown’s comments prompt an angry call from Rihanna

Updated: May 10, 2013 2:33AM - While Rihanna and Chris Brown have made their latest breakup very public with dueling tweets, I’ve also learned that RiRi used a more old-fashioned approach to express her outrage at Brown: She picked up the phone and called him.

A source close to Rihanna told this column Thursday, "She really blasted him, using language that made it sound like she never will get back with him again — no matter what people think."

The singer was especially infuriated by Brown’s comment in an interview that he wasn’t ready to be "wife-ing" someone as young as Rihanna. "She really thought that was a sexist, degrading thing for him to say," added the source, "Especially after all Rihanna endured after he beat her and all that."

Though the ex-couple were both in New York the past few days, they never connected in person. As for Twitter, here’s Rihanna’s key one: "Settling is not an option! Nothing less than 100% loyalty, honesty, and respect!! Love ain’t for kidz."

Video Model Esther Baxter Denies Rapper Bow Wow's Claim She Took His Virginity


Bow Wow (Shad Moss)

Voluptuous video model, Esther Baxter, 28, has slammed the claims of 26-year-old rapper Bow Wow, that she took his virginity when he was 16 and she 18. Though the two are close in age, technically, that's illegal in America, because he was underage at the time.


Esther Baxter

Baxter should not be surprised this is now public knowledge, as most men talk, just like women do, maybe even more, as they love to brag about their manhood. I'm not saying I believe Bow Wow (yea I do) but why would he give her initials if it wasn't her, then fail to deny the story altogether, grinning when people at the radio station guessed her name.

Esther Baxter Denies Bow Wow’s Claims She Took His Virginity

Dec 17, 2012 - In a very over sharing interview, Bow Wow discussed allegedly losing his virginity at the age of 16 to video model Esther Baxter. He also went on to talk various sexual acts he’s tried, what other celebs he wouldn’t mind boning, and also brought up his baby mama.

Now Ms. Baxter is none too thrilled with what was said about her. She took to Twitter to denounce Bow Wow’s claims, calling it a “ballerific fantasy.” Clearly she’s not as chummy with Shad as Karrine Steffans is.

Esther wrote: Do I REALLY have to respond to this s***!?! First…you people believe the SILLIEST s**t!!! Lm*o! I thought this s*** was a joke…but Lil homie ACTUALLY said that s**t. N***a really shot for the stars with that one!!! Couldn’t think of anyone else huh!?! It’s cool I know times are hard right now but u should’ve at least let me know so we could BOTH benefit. Losing your virginity to EB at 16…damn…that’s a ballerific fantasy bro. Its not the first time & it won’t be the last time a n**** decide to put my name in some s***…I don’t have time for the foolishness. You have some s*** to promote do that s*** WITHOUT putting my damn name in some nonsense. #Done #NothingElseToSay #ByeBoy.

Nurse To Royal Couple Who Killed Herself Over Radio Station Prank Left Suicide Notes



Prince William and wife Kate Middleton leaving the hospital in London, England

Police have revealed nurse Jacintha Saldanha left suicide notes before taking her life last week, over a radio station prank by 2Day FM djs Mel Greig and Michael Christian. The duo telephoned King Edward VII hospital in London, England pretending to be Queen Elizabeth and Prince Charles, calling to check on their pregnant in-law, Kate Middleton, wife of Prince William. 


Radio DJs Mel Greig and Michael Christian

It is thought the embarrassment of it all was too much for Saldanha to bear and regrettably she took her life. Two nurses fell for the prank and I can see why under the circumstances. I thought about it and wondered how Saldanha or anyone for that matter was to reasonably handle such a stupid situation, because if she didn't put the call through and it had actually been the Queen and Prince Charles, she would have been in trouble with her supervisors regarding her job. 

Had they vetted the call it would have taken many minutes of having the individuals on hold, who may or may not have been members of the royal family, to check with Buckingham Palace or Clarence House. It was a lose lose situation, because of a foolish prank, which breached medical confidentiality laws. Charges should be brought. Shock jocks all over the world need a wake up call.


Jacintha Saldanha

2Day FM has offered Saldanha's family $500,000, but the Judiciary Report is of the belief they should be forced to pay way more than that, as they gave the go ahead to harassing the staff of a busy hospital tending to sick people, for an unlawful on air prank, which left an innocent person dead.
