Yandy Smith Speaks Out On Kimbella & Chrissy Fight w/TT Torrez

The most talked about drama of Vh1's "Love & Hip Hop" series is the fight that went down between Kimbella and Chrissy Lampkin. It was captured on film for all to see and although many of you have already formed your own opinions of how things should've gone down, we never heard from Yandy Smith about how she felt about the whole thing.

Well, TT Torrez of ipowerrichmond.com has taken care of that for us as she has interviewed Yandy Smith of the very subject we are talking about. So find out how Yandy answered the following questions (Why was Kimbella invited to Emily B's independence party? Should Kimbella have disclosed such personal information to Emily B at her own party in front of everybody? Was Chrissy in the wrong for knocking Kimbella out?) when you click on the "Read More" button below:

Rocsi Diaz Talks Webbie Incident With Peter Bailey

Friend to the site, Peter Bailey, took it all the way to the Biscayne Bay of Miami, Florida to interview 106 & Park's own, Rocsi Diaz. The two had an intimate conversation on a boat to discuss various topics such as Rocsi being single and what it takes for a man to be with her, her acting career and of course the very infamous incident with Webbie!

As Rocsi recalls the incident with Webbie on 106 & Park, she described it as vulgar and disgusting. Dang!! Was it like that? Was Webbie that disrespectful? Where was I at that I missed it? Does anyone have footage of that incident? I'd like to see what actually happened because all I heard about was Terrance J addressing the situation during a segway and he wasn't nice about it. But enough of that and check out what Rocsi had to say to Peter Bailey when you click on the "Read More" button below:

Drake Is Working On His "Motto"

Word on the internet curb is that Drake is working on a new video titled "The Motto" which features Young Money CEO, Lil Wayne. I'm hoping Lil Wayne is in the video since he's on the song, but the only picture released from the videoset is a picture of Drake alongside Mistah F.A.B.

I'm not sure if Mistah F.A.B. will have a cameo in the video, but the video is being shot in the Bay area so you never know. Anywho, check out the pic of Mistah F.A.B. and Drake along with the song "The Motto" (for those of you who have not heard the song) when you click on the "Read More" button below:

TECHCRUNCH FOUNDER, Micheal Arrington, BLOCKS @blackurbanbooks..after airing of CNN "blackinamerica"'s tech segment!

So Mr. Arrington has gone ahead and blocked our publishing imprint's twitter handle @blackurbanbooks. Not sure why, but its interesting that this comes on the heels of BlackinAmerica 4- Blacks in Tech segment. Anyway..its inspiring to say the least..because black startups don't need vc funding..they just needed a catalyst and the black in america segment has already done the job. So..thanks Mr. Arrington for blocking me. I follow Angela Benton and Wayne Sutton and all of the other newme accelerator members anyway. Real Talk.

Mr. Arrington stated..

On Oct. 28, Mr. Arrington took to his blog to accuse CNN of ambushing him. He asserted that he said he knew no black entrepreneurs because he doesn’t “categorize people as black or white or gay or straight in my head.” He wrote, “They’re just smart or not smart.”

Sure..whatever you say.

blkutimes

Its just a thought. We just watched a great special on CNN's series-Black in America with tech startups from African-americans. So whats still wrong with this picture? They are all not funded yet! Its amazing that we have Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga, Justin Beiber, Matt Damon, Leonardo DiCaprio, and now Selena Gomez, all investing in tech startups that are run by the same pattern matching crew that probably started Facebook.
