I Wish I Could Make This Shit Up: LeBron James’s “Dad” Suing his Son!

by John M. Ellison IV

So…Basketball player LeBron James is now playing for the Miami Heat. My thoughts on this are constipated or in other words, I don’t give a shit. Oddly enough though, I found this one story about this guy by the name of…well, you can read for yourself.

“LeBron James is being sued by a man who claims to be his biological father. Leicester Bryce Stovell, a Princeton grad and lawyer, is suing the basketball phenom and his mother for fraud, defamation, and misrepresentation, alleging they tampered with the results of a paternity test in 2007. He charges that Lebron’s mother, Gloria James, “fabricated” the story of the star’s life to make it “suggestive of Spike Lee’s popular 1998 sports drama film, He Got Game.”
It gets crazier. The LeBron lookalike says he met and had “consensual sex” with Gloria James when she was only 15 years old (he was 29). When she told him she was pregnant, he remembers saying “if he’s mine, make sure he plays basketball,” notes TMZ. Stovell says that when he approached Gloria in 2007 she threatened him and said, “LeBron’s money is for his children.” There is no word, yet, from James or his team.”

After reading that story, do you have the “O_O” look on your face too? Let’s see how wrong this story is.
1. The story of “He Got Game” a movie that was made in 1998! Is based off of someone who started playing professionally in 2003. If anything this story sounds more like the “Waterboy”

2. THIS GUY “ALLEGEDLY” FUCKED A 15 YEAR OLD! After looking it up, 16 is the age of consent and Stovell being 29 at the time could’ve brought up some issues if reported.

3. Not to sound chauvinistic but, aren’t “alleged” gold diggers usually young women? When did they turn into Princeton educated lawyers in their mid-50’s?

After reading this story, what else can you say?

Muthawit feat. Leila Adu at Bloombars

By GPR84 // Music // 5 Comments

On July 2nd 2010, I got a call from a long time friend of mine by the name of Boston Fielder. Boston is apart of MuthaWit gave me a call mentioning that he was in w/ Leila Adu for a show at this place called BloomBars in NW D.C. The show was at 8:30 and the call was around 8:20. So, knowing that, I headed out with the missus and here’s what transpired.

Around 10:30, we arrived at Bloombars. Bloombars is a performance venue that has the feel of a basement show. When we arrived, we liked the quaintness of Bloombars that was reminiscent of other popular D.C. night spot, “Blues Alley.“ We took our seats and around 10:41 Leila Adu started her set with some songs from her “Dark Joan” album. Although the album was a stripped down album with keyboard and vocal album, she had drummer Ibrehiym Ross accompanying her on drums.

Around 11:05, Muthawit started their performance with Leila Adu on keyboard bass due to bass player Markell Brown not being able to be found at the time. After going through some of the set, Markell comes in and after the song is done, he sits in on bass Then, my favorite “Two Fisted God” starts. Unlike the album version, this version of “Two Fisted God” is arranged for a power trio. But, the aural intensity doesn’t lack. In fact, I think it’s even more powerful than on the album. The performances of the night had me hypnotized and the spontaneity of Muthawit‘s set is something else. Although the night was sublime, the most memorable part of said performance is when Boston went into “Give it to Me.”

After the performance, I spoke with Leila Adu and Boston. I actually met Boston at CBGB’s very briefly. Actually, the last time the Boston was in D.C. was the inauguration in ’08. It was great seeing them.

Mel Gibson’s Racist Rant…I Couldn’t Make This Shit Up!

By GPR84 // The Shit Has Hit The Fan // 2 Comments

Oh fuck!

From the Huffington Post: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/07/01/mel-gibsons-new-racist-ra_n_632602.html

Mel Gibson has reportedly exploded in another racially charged tirade, this time throwing around the N-word at his ex, Oksana Grigorieva.

His abusive and disgusting rant was caught on audio tape and includes a wish that the mother of his infant daughter be “raped by a pack of [N-words],” Radaronline.com reports.
Mel also calls Oksana a whore and a c**t while their baby screams in the background, according to Radar, which has listened to the tape. Mel’s rep has not denied the tape’s content.
Here are a few of his threats:

“You’re an embarrassment to me. You look like a f***ing pig in heat, and if you get raped by a pack of n***ers, it will be your fault.”

“How dare you act like such a bitch when I have been so f**king nice.”

“I am going to come and burn the f**king house down… but you will blow me first.”

Okay, let me put it this way…is anyone that surprised? I mean…really? Are our short term memories that blown out since the last time he went bat shit crazy during that DUI with him claiming he runs Malibu and blaming Jewish people for all the wrong in the world. Honestly, he was lucky that he was lucky that time because he was shit face drunk and he can blame it on the booze and go on an apology tour. But, like the saying goes, “a drunken mouth speaks a sober mind.” In this case, Mel was sober and pissed off. From the looks of it, this motherfucker’s mouth is a Lethal Weapon!

Another thing, did he say “a pack of niggers?” In his mind they’re packs of Sgt. Roger Murtaugh’s pointing at random white women going “there’s one!” The fuck?

Honestly, I’ve never been a fan of Mel Gibson, even before the anti-Semitic comments. I just didn’t see the big deal. Well, with this is just icing on the cake for reasons I don’t give a rat’s ass about him.
