YOUNG CESAR is the story of Ali Dean (Clifton Powell) and his failure as a father to his two sons, Cesar (Dominic Daniel) and Tariq (Sam Sarpong). Ali is sentenced to a life behind bars for a vicious murder during a botched robbery attempt on the Dean family in the ’80s. In jail and unable to guide his sons through the perils of the rough streets on which they grow up, Ali sits helplessly as he watches Cesar become trapped within the growing and lucrative drug trade. The story speeds full circle as Ali is ultimately released from prison on the very same day that Cesar starts his own life sentence.

Young Cesar is a contemporary nail biting Urban Drama, exploring themes of family, fatherhood, promise, redemption and the consequences of limited choices of life in the rough streets of the inner city.

    FINALLY, people- we have the high quality version of “Stronger,” hopefully the second single from Mr. West’s third LP, Graduation, set to drop September 18th! Yes lawd, I’m so excited about this, cause that dumb ass DJ Mark Ronson was gettin’ on my fuckin’ nerves talking all over the shit. He needed to get shot, twice. But anyway, I can now go to sleep satisfied – this album is going to be the shit off rip! Kanye West is a genius and highly underrated.

    Akon’s Attorney Denies Criminal Conduct in Fan-Throwing Incident

    Well maybe it wasn’t fake! (lol) Remember that video of Akon THROWING A KID into the crowd for hurling an object at him while he was on stage? Well, we said we thought it was fake, but maybe it wasn’t because now the police are supposedly getting involved! On Wednesday, Akon’s attorney released a statement proclaiming Black Night’s innocence:

    “Given the information that we have reviewed to date, it does not appear to us that Akon was involved in any criminal conduct whatsoever,” read a statement from Akon’s attorney, Benjamin Brafman. “We are prepared to fully cooperate with any law enforcement agency that may be investigating this incident. We are confident that after a thorough investigation it will be apparent that no criminal prosecution of Akon is warranted.”

    Fishkill police have the name of the fan who was hurled from the stage but have not yet released it. According to eyewitnesses and the fan video, the boy was pulled out of the crowd by a security guard after allegedly tossing an unidentified object at Akon. According to the Journal, the boy’s mother contacted authorities and gave them her son’s name. Police had been seeking the boy to see if he’d been injured in the incident and was interested in pressing charges. So far, no criminal charges have been filed against Akon and the Journal reported that the uninjured boy refused medical treatment on site and left right after the incident.

    Hmm… oh, yeah credit goes to MTV News for this!

    What … the  … flying …. fuck?! I went to bed last night with happy thoughts and a happy feeling, and woke up this morning pretty much the same. After wolfing down a nice bowl of CHOCO-NILLA RICE KRISPIES (that good shit, especially with a few spoonfuls of sugar … don’t hate), I sit down at my Dell and find out that Paris Hilton, who just went to jail a mere 3 days ago, is out! She’s out for “good behavior” and will serve the rest of her term on house arrest is what I’m hearing. Aint that ’bout a bitch?! The ho already got 45 days shortened to 23, and now she gets released and put on “house arrest” for 40 days?? What kind of GARY COLEMAN bullshit is that?! Just done fucked my whole month up. How the hell am I gonna make fun of her on house arrest? And what about this critically acclaimed novel she’s supposed to be writing? It’s not gonna be much of an interesting read hearing her talk about her butler forgetting to make a smiley face with her eggs and bacon. Ain’t that ’bout a bitch?! Urgh, let me to recollect before somebody gets hurt up in this mofo. I … AM … PISSED! WIPE ME DOWN!
