-Not that it’s the first time I’ve noticed this sort of plagiarism, but, there’s something unethical about jacking another person’s piece word for word. I’m talking about these guys jacking this article. He eventually agreed to add the source.
-Will.i.am says he was nervous when he first met The Game. Duh, he jumped Ras Kass by himself. Who wouldn’t be? s/c
Speaking of JT…
-He won’t drive Maybachs or wear button-ups, but he sure looks awkward on this cover of the November XXL.
-You know the world is coming to an end when folks like Michael Jackson are getting dropped from their label. What’s the word on that Method Man rumor by the way?
-Gnarls Barkley takes the “if it ain’t broke…” approach on their second album. (Update: They’re no longer sure if there’ll be a second Gnarls Barkley album.)
-I was just about to exhale a sigh of relief at the sight of this headline before realizing that The Boondocks comic strip won’t return anytime soon. Let me find out Aaron McGruder has joined Dave Chappelle in Africa.
-Bumpy Knuckles takes a break from dissin’ Nah’Right.com posters to beef with Rakim…of all people.
-Shots fired atJim Jones concert, two men arrested.

Nana Says:
I was referring to the rumor that kkk is disbanding cuz blacks are doing their jobs for them. they pretty much feel like hip-hop is killing us all so there’s no need for them to hang around

Game did not and will not resurrect or save the West Coast. What kind of X is XXL on?
SMH @ MJ..can we get a good album please?
Lol @ Foxx…I really don’t know what to think of that situation. It’s corny coming at someone for something that happened years ago? What’s with hip hoppers always trying to act ‘harder-than-thou’ in EVERY situation?

Adam Donahue Says:
Dude, why does everyone hate on the Game? His lyrics are bright and original, and at least he takes a different approach to rap than most cookie-cutter artists these days. Who fuckin’ cares if is or isn’t from the ghetto, or if he’s been on TV. It’s music man, chill.

Nana Says:
Game is good at what he does. So hating on him is only natural.

Clyde Smith Says:
Glad you got your article cited, at least. I wrote the guy an unfriendly note myself, for what it’s worth.

Rizoh Says:
@Clyde
Yeah, About wanted to intervene, but I didn’t want to make a big issue out of this. I just think that this sort of thing is absolutely unethical. It’s worse when every other website out there is citing the guy who stole your work, and crediting the article to him.
Thanks for stepping in as well.
