Remy Ma and "Black Injustice" Don’t Mix

newremymaSo, Remy Ma finally got a slice of reality. According to allhiphop.com, she was sentenced to 8 years in prison, the minimum sentence, a few hours ago. She tried to get marry to Papoose while in prison over the weekend, but failed because Papoose allegedly had handcuff keys and is now banned from the prison for six months. In a pervious post, I talked about the outcome of the verdict and “advice” Remy Ma just to take what she can.

One commenter, “Buttaluv” (who wasn’t brave enough to even leave a real e-mail address) used poor logic and used a weak argument about Rodney King, OJ Simpson, and TI as examples. Clearly a Remy Ma supporter (or fan, which is actually a LOWER level than supporter), I doubt she saw the point of the post, which was that her attorney is using the argument that she didn’t mean to use a gun and/or didn’t mean to fire the victim, just threaten her.

Rev. Wright Vs. White Preachers - It’s Alright Because It’s All White [LinkUp]

Reverend Rod Parsley believes America was founded to destroy Islam. Reverend John Hagee has called the Catholic Church the “Great Whore.”Jerry Falwell said America had 9/11 coming because we tolerated gays, feminists and liberals. Reverend Jeremiah Wright said things similar to these preachers, but there’s a slight difference. It’s their skin color. All the preachers I spoke of, other than Wright, are white preachers. And all these preachers either support or is a spiritual guide to… Senator John McCain.

While this isn’t totally surprising, let’s face it. If a white man tells the truth, then we praise him. If a black man speaks the truth, we stone him. Geez.

Alicia Keys: Conspiracy Theorist? [LinkUp]

Alicia-Keys-jr38 Tupac & Biggie was killed by the United States Government? This is what Alicia Keys (yes, the singer pictured to the left) had said in a recent Blender Magazine.

While she may sound “crazy”, just remember, I like to hear and think of conspiracy theories as well. The only difference between Ms. Keys and myself is that she’s only one of the biggest artists in the world and I will be lucky if 10 people remember my name during one of my open-mic performances.

I was going to do a bit of research myself as to who can be “crazier” than Alicia Keys, but Jay Smooth beat me to it. Here’s today’s linkup.

He also provide links to the crazier people… like the FBI.

The only crazy statement (in my opinion) she made was Tupac and Biggie being “black leaders”. Call me crazy, but I doubt Tupac wants to actually be a leader of that caliber.

Senator John McCain & Dr. King [LinkUp]

mccain050840 years ago, Dr. Martin Luther King was taken from this realm. He’s now only with us in spirit. Today, we are still trying to get equal rights.

So, what does John McCain have to do with Dr. King? In today’s linkup, you’ll see he has a lot to do with the creation of Dr. King’s holiday as well as why Arizona, the state he represented, was the last state to observed MLK day.
