Investigators found the drug that killed Prince in counterfeit pills in his home — and it's part of a much bigger problem with painkillers
Report: Pills in Prince’s Home Were Mislabeled, Contained Fentanyl

Exhibit A: Americans' aversion to fruit cake, as told by the "Fruit Cake" song, which is one dead wrong musical parody of legendary Sam Cooke's music.
Over the years in America, I have seen sitcom after sitcom mock the fruit cake, which is not fair (ok, some deserve it, as a fruit cake should not be able to anchor a ship). I've seen some good fruit cakes in America, then again I've seen a few fruit cakes that looked so lumpy, I wondered how one would digest something of said consistency, as it looked like it would take out one's insides on the way out and possibly back up the septic system. What am I saying, this one looks like it came out of the septic system:

Turns out, not even Homeland Security, who once took the diaper (nappy) off a senior citizen, wants to take fruit cake (Traveling with Food or Gifts). This is a shame. Jamaicans love fruit cake, but it is made differently according to island customs, pardon the pun. All the fruits and candy peel you see on an American fruit cake, are blended in a blender, then baked (aides in digestion and prevents choking as well LOL). Not to mention, it is baked with Jamaican rum, with more Jamaican rum poured over it when the cake is finished baking. Yes, really, Jamaican rum, which coincidentally cost the British battles on the island centuries ago (they got distracted by the rum...and the women).
In closing, for a smoother fruit cake this holiday season, you may want to change things up a bit by blending the fruits in a blender, then baking it with the rest of the fruit cake mixture, which will give you a nice, flavorful cake.
Micahele Salahi And Tareq Salahi
Pop culture headlines have been dominated by news of White House gatecrasher and former "Real Housewives of DC" star, Michaele Salahi (nee Holt), leaving her husband of 8-years, Tareq Salahi, to do the no-no with Journey guitarist, Neal Schon. The Judiciary Report is not amused.
Michaele Salahi
Journey is one of the best selling bands in music. They are famous for the hits "Faithfully" (their best song) "Open Arms" "When You Love A Woman" and "I'll Be Alright Without You." Former Journey frontman, Steve Perry, is one of the best vocalists in modern music history. He is the Portuguese Sam Cooke.

So imagine my annoyance when Perry's songwriting partner, Schon, runs off with Salahi (or vice versa). Dude, what are you doing? You need to send Botox Barbie home to her husband, who was crying on TV like a girl, telling everyone she was kidnapped (but she was actually with you). I think Michaele is going through a midlife crisis and trying to relive her groupie days.
Neal Schon
According to the Chicago Sun Times, Salahi wants to do a reality show with award winning musician, Schon, since her former program was cancelled in the Spring, due to poor ratings. It was the first in the franchise to be cancelled after one season. The affiliation is going to hurt Schon and Journey. Salahi's husband has announced he is filing for divorce.

Thieving Sony singer, Beyonce, has been stealing from other artists again, in a nasty habit that has made her the recipient of a number of copyright infringement lawsuits. Her career has solely been based on copyright theft, which is a federal and international crime.
This time Beyonce stole in great detail, the preexisting video performance of European pop artist, Lorella Cuccarini, for her appearance on the Billboard Music Awards show last week. She's being slammed all over the internet for it.
Beyonce performed the infringing song "Run The World Girls" which has flopped on the charts and paired it with a scene by scene rip-off of Cuccarini's performance from last year that was televised in Europe.
Internet users are slamming Beyonce for this unoriginality. This week Beyonce also premiered a new song entitled "1+1" which is already being panned by people online. Ironically, Beyonce's "1+1" is a dead rip off of the 1960's song "Wonderful World" by my dad's favorite singer, Sam Cooke, who he plays often on his radio show.
Sam Cooke
My dad also played "Wonderful World" so many times in the house and car, while I was growing up, when I heard the Beyonce song, I instantly recognized the infringement. A few of the copyright infringing lyrics are:
Sam: but I do know one and one is two
Beyonce: but I know one plus one equals two
Sam: don't know much about algebra
Beyonce: I don't know much about algebra
Sam: don't know much about the French I took
Beyonce: I don't know much about fighting
Sam: what a wonderful world this could be
Beyonce: when the world's at war
En Vogue
Beyonce's "1+1" is also a rip off in certain parts, of the 1991 En Vogue hit "Don't Go." It's clear she slapped the two songs together ("Wonderful World" and "Don't Go"). There are melodic infringements and lyrical ones as well:
En Vogue: don't go
Beyonce: don't let me go
En Vogue: let's make sweet love
Beyonce: make love to me
En Vogue: I won't put up any fight
Beyonce: I will fight for you
En Vogue: lay me down
Beyonce: I'm laying right next to you
En Vogue: Our love's been growing freely
Beyonce: our love will heal us all
En Vogue: it's out of my hands
Beyonce: when I ball up my fist
En Vogue: body next to mine
Beyonce: laying next to you
In closing, Beyonce is pathetic - a complete fraud and thief with a career that's a farce. She is crazy and sick to be doing this. These labels need to stop signing people like her, as it is disgraceful. With all the talent in America, for Beyonce to consistently do this thieving stupidity, while deceitfully bragging she is a songwriter, is to spit in the face of true writers everywhere that work hard to come up with something original. She is an embarrassment that needs to go sit down.
BEYONCE'S OBSESSION WITH RIPPING OFF VANESSA WILLIAM'S MUSIC CAREER:

Vanessa Williams took the photo posted above on the left in 1991 for her "Running Back To You" single. In 2008, Beyonce ripped it off. Note the similarities:
1. Vanessa Williams is wearing a black leotard covered by a black jacket. Beyonce is wearing a black leotard.
2. Vanessa Williams is wearing black paten leather ankle high boots and Beyonce is also wearing black paten leather ankle high boots .
3. Vanessa Williams has the front of her hair upswept with blonde highlights at the top while the back is flowing over her shoulders. Beyonce has the front of her hair upswept with blonde highlights at the top while the back is flowing over her shoulders.
4. Another sick note to add, Vanessa Williams has a daughter named Sasha. Beyonce adopted an alter ego named Sasha Fierce (more like Sasha Stupid ripping everybody off).

I thought I was done writing for the night, but apparently not. When I saw this little gem of a video, featuring football player, Cam Newton, singing Justin Bieber's "Baby" I knew the night was not over. Newton is singing parts of the song like he got stabbed.
All I have to say is, thank goodness he plays football. Dude may look like Sam Cooke, but he sure doesn't sing like him (teasing). Still, he sounds better than Britney Spears and Rihanna. Newton's rapping was also much better than his singing. Still, after the impressive record he's had in college ball, we know what his true talent is for sure.

Justin Bieber Is The Top Selling Teen Entertainer In History
A few months ago, it was publicly said, the late pop singer, Michael Jackson, is worth more dead and to Sony this is proving quite true. The documentary film of his last concert rehearsals, titled "This Is It" has reportedly grossed $250 million dollars worldwide, with an additional 7 million CDs sold of his past work and millions more dollars generated in memorabilia and merchandising sales.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist. I'm quite logical and rational. However, when one looks at the circumstances surrounding Michael Jackson's death, one can't help but think something terrible and questionable transpired.
With Hollywood's history of destroying black people with too many copyrights and influence (see Sam Cooke and Michael Jackson), one can't discount that something very disgraceful transpired. Then, one looks at Jackson's archenemies at Sony, some of whom have mafia ties and much to gain from his death and you realize the terrible situation he found himself in.
Something very bad happened to this man and it is the government's duty to properly investigate it and bring justice. The world is not amused. I didn't agree with everything Michael did in life, but a human life is gone and certain industry entities have gotten filthy rich as a result. Someone needs to impartially look into that, as it is not sending a good message.
Michael looked like he was higher than a satellite in that pic
Few could have imagined Michael Jackson would meet such a sad, untimely end, but compounding the tragedy is news from Los Angeles that his will appears to be a forgery.
The Jackson family stated it is not Michael’s signature on the will. Additionally, the will that was signed in Los Angeles, conflicts with photographic evidence showing the pop singer on the other side of the country in New York, at a protest with the Rev. Al Sharpton, slamming Sony and then C.E.O. Tommy Mottola and their conduct regarding the entertainer’s career.
Which brings me back to the point I have been making for months, when an artist, particularly a black one, owns a copyrighted catalog (music publishing ect) of any volume and value, said artist becomes a target for destruction by the Hollywood system, which is essentially a cabal, that still has its feet firmly trenched in racism and that old time slavery mentality.
Michael Jackson and Rev. Al Sharpton
Well, you guys have really done it this time. The most famous entertainer in the world is dead and under very suspicious circumstances. The world is not amused. I predict nothing but bad will come of this for Hollywood.
First Sam Cooke, who was the first black man to demand and own his own music publishing, now Jackson, who had half ownership in the Sony catalog, winds up dead as well, in a situation that is so suspect.
Hollywood has nastier secrets it is hiding in the same vein, pardon the pun. However, when it goes public and it will, it’s going to be a wrap for certain executives and a few famous names as well.
It’s really sad and pathetic when apart of the corporate sector, traded on Wall Street, that is supposed to be about entertainment, is capable of murder to steal others’ assets and labor.
Then Hollywood wonders why its sales are in the toilet. No one wants to support such madness and villainy. If this madness continues it is only a matter of time before its spells Hollywood’s financial epitaph.
Jackson's Will -- Randy Says Not MJ's Signature
Posted Oct 21st 2009 1:35PM by TMZ Staff - Randy Jackson claims Michael Jackson could not have signed his 2002 will, because he was 2,475 air miles away from the place the document was supposedly inked.
According to the will, it was signed on July 7, 2002 at 5:00 PM in Los Angeles. Randy Jackson tells TMZ he has proof MJ was in New York from July 5 through July 9, on a campaign against Sony honcho Tommy Mottola, claiming Mottola had a thing against Black artists.
The lawyer for the estate, Howard Weitzman, tells TMZ the witnesses to the will were face-to-face with Jackson when he signed the document. Weitzman would not say if the will was signed in L.A., even though the document refers to Los Angeles...
UPDATE: TMZ spoke with Al Sharpton's rep, Rachel Noerdlinger, who confirms Sharpton and Jackson were protesting Mottola in NY together in 2002 on July 6th and July 9th.
As the for the key date -- July 7th -- Sharpton's rep released the following curious statement:
"We have reason to believe that Michael may have been in NY on the 7th and Rev. Sharpton will address this after he discusses it with the Jackson family."
