Whitney Houston x Oprah

Nothing to say other than it's everything you wanted to hear in what Oprah states as "One of the most powerful interviews" she has done. You'd be a fool to disgaree.

First part

  • What attracted the church-going, sweetheart dubbed "The voice" to "bad news" Bobby Brown
  • In-depth look into their tumultuous, and sometimes abusive relationship
  • Addiction to sex, coke and weed
  • Breakdown of her marriage
  • Rehab


Second part

  • The day she finally walked out
  • Effect the relationship had on their teenage daughter Bobby Kristina
  • Michael Jackson's passing
  • Inspiration behind songs lifted from new album 'I Look to You'
  • Whether she's drug-free


Whitney has a mean swagger in front of the audience. I remember fancying Whitney along with the likes of Beyoncé, Chilli (TLC) and Monica circa 'My Love is Your Love', not ashamed to say. After seeing pics of her looking rather crack-ish for obvious reasons (no disrespect of course), she looks rejuvenated and radiant like she's thrownback to them times.

Back to the interview, tell me that wasn't gripping. Go on I dare ya! Oprah is the bawse.

Moral of the story: You can be blessed with talent and beauty, all the money, praise and adulation you could wish for yet still not be happy/content. This proves celebrities are real people. More shallow and insecure than you and I in a lot of cases. To think, that's what many aspiring artists hope to be. Do what you want to do for yourself; external factors don't usually help internally (no Rev Run).

Marvin Sparks x Raekwon interview

Wu-Tang's in-house "Chef" better known as Raekwon proved he is still a force to be mentioned alongside the hottest rappers in the hip hop game with the release of Only Built For Cuban Linx... pt. II - sequel to his 1995 debut album. Marvin Sparks caught up with the hip hop legend to discuss rapping for drug dealers, people caring "more about stats than raps", his inclusion in MTV's Top 10 Hottest Rappers list, and converting to Islam. Marvin Sparks: It has been almost fifteen years since the first Only Built For Cuban Linx, an album that was a 5-mic classic when The Source magazine held weight. Why did you decide make a sequel?

Why Cheetah Woods, whhyyyy?!?!?!

We must all know about the predator nyamin woman (no bowcat reference intended - or am I lying? *shudders*). Anyone heard the voicemail he left for the girl he's been PARrin (there was a golf reference there) his wife with? Easy now my selekta as we rinse some tunes for di one name Tiger. Man like him doesn't know how to play. (By The Endz not Ruff Sqwad) How you gonna leave a voicemail for a girl with your real name at the beginning? Do you want to be held to ransom? Man from 'the ends' know (in the words of Kano) "That's slippin'!" And when isht hits the fan (like it has) he's buggered. Not something I deal in but surely the point of cheating is for an assortment of ladies. All his ones look the same; blonde, no breast nor batty.

Remember When Riddims Were King

Before you read, thank you for your interest and hope you enjoy. I actually fleshed it out into a book. You can get your copy from www.nolongstories.com   Now for what you came here for... When Riddims Were King 23rd May 2020 will be remembered in history for one of the most epic events in one of our universe's darkest times. We will never forget the night dancehall kings and former extremely heated rivals, Beenie Man and Bounty Killer, battled on the Verzuz platform built by hall-of-fame producers, Timbaland and Swizz Beatz. An unfiltered, 360-degree view on Jamaican dancehall events was showcased; DJ’s and dancing (Beenie Man’s daughter Desha Ravers) to deejay’s clashing on the same riddims. The latter elements provided the jewels in the night’s highlight reel, and undoubtedly the best thing to happen on the Verzuz series. Word spread like guava jelly within the dancehall community and Jamaican diaspora upon announcement. Not only was it a clash between the longest and fier
