50 Cent discusses fire that claimed his crib

fiddy 

Days after it was reported that he hadn’t made himself available to investigators, 50 Cent reportedly has discussed the fire that claimed his home. Lawyers for the rapper’s ex, Shaniqua Tompkins, recently put out word that Tompkins had been questioned about the spring blaze on multiple occasions, but that Fiddy wasn’t talking. Tompkins, who lived with their son at the home the rapper owned, suggested that 50 was behind the fire. The house was the subject of a heated legal dispute between the rapper and his son’s mom. No charges have been issued in connection with the blaze, but investigators called it suspicious.

Rapper attacked before annual “Summer Jamz” concert.

Yung Berg 

It’s been a heck of a year for Yung Berg. After suffering the apparent fan backlash from his public dis of dark-skinned women – for which he apologized – Berg was recently charged with threatening his limo driver, and now is the rumored victim of an assault. Detroit rapper Trick Trick is alleged to have jumped Berg while the performer was in Michigan for a Radio One station’s annual “Summer Jamz” concert. Trick Trick is developing quite the reputation for his temper after jumping Miami rapper Trick Daddy in Detroit a few years ago. Maybe they got a little territorial about that “trick” thing.

I understand why everyone might feel that what ever happens to Yung Berg is “poetic justice”, based on his feelings about dark-skinned sistas, but that doesn’t give anybody permission or the right to assault him. There’s a culture of violence that now exist in the black community and its become epidemic, because its seen as “acceptable”. In other words, if someone “has it coming” than its okay to take off on them. That’s insane, criminal, thinking that will, if left unchecked, eventually end more lives than cancer, diabetes and heart attacks combined. Trick Trick sounds like he has an anger management problem that’s gonna eventually get him locked up or killed (if he assaults the wrong person). I don’t know we get this notion that we have a right to put our hands on people, simply because they said something that we didn’t like or appreciate. To me that shows that those men who submit to that behavior have never been in the presence of a real man. Real men aren’t intimidated by what someone says. They know who they are and don’t feel the need to control people by making or carrying out threats of violence. Its sociopaths who think like that. They can’t function in normal society, so they live in a world where they are threatened by everything and everybody and think making everyone experience the fear they live in is fair and justified. Names like Murder Inc, Death Row Records, and Bad Boys are all labels that promotes this lifestyle of sex, money, destruction, terror and mayhem. Its now bleeding over into white suburban America, so maybe it will come to a halt. White parents won’t stand for it. They’ll do what black parents don’t seem to have the will or moral fortitude to do, which is get that crap away from their kids. Its a dream killer and a sad example of manhood.

Yung Berg needed that azz whooping. Someone should have done that to him when he made the stupid comment about dark skinned women. I never liked his music and I would never purchase a Yung Berg CD.

Berg is %?%%% anyway. That’s why he’s scared to make himself be seeing in Miami. Brisco(from cashmoney, poe boy) promised him an ass whooping when he mistakenly went and dissed Flo-Rida. Where is he from anyways. It’s best for him to stay in his hometown. that is if they like him there too.whack ass rapper. and 50 cent lately dissed Miami rappers said “Miami rappers have to be together to make it”. We got something for his $%%#? ass too. 50 and Berg both are banned from the 305.

This little dude make all of chi-town look bad you should never diss the dark and lovely sistas. He just needed a check from the neck up.



Prissy Said on

Yung Berg is WACK!!!!! His music is wack, including the lyrics and he’s just disrespectful! How dare you criticize people because of their skin color!!!!!!!! Even if he said the same thing about light-skinned women, I still be upset!!!!!!!! I read on a previous article on BET that 50 Cent gave him advice to take Bow Wow ‘Out the Game’. OOOOOOOO, Yung Berg, once you take Bow out the game, you’re gonna be in the ranks with Tupac and Biggie, huh??????? Try taking Weezy or Jay-Z out the game, loser!!!!!!!

I WILL NEVER SUPPORT YUNG BERG, EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GARY IN PISMO made some very valid points. all people saying that young berg had it coming really need to grow up. apparently us as black people have totally forgotten about unity. dude apologized for his comment so press on. if you don’t like his cd don’t buy it. if you don’t like his videos don’t watch them. this is america and nobody can make you buy his cd or watch his video. put don’t your glass of haterade and keep it moving. i’m not gonna buy his cd so don’t think that i’m a young berg fan or family member. i read this story and was disgusted and even more disgusted at most of the comments posted. LET’S GROW UP AS A PEOPLE AND SUPPORT ONE ANOTHER.

Never heard of him



Deanna Said on

Listen to what is being said. How is it okay for anyone to assault someone and take their personal belongings. People we all have brothers, fathers, uncles, nephews etc.. Would you feel the same way if this happened to one of them. You reap what you sow in this world, and as God is my witnees, these people will pay for what they did. I don’t believe that anyone would be happy about any individual being treated this way, regardless of his tasteless comment towards dark skinned women. God is going to punish him for his remarks, but it is wrong for what these men did to him. Think before you comment because you may curse yourself/ family by using evil words….
