NEW YORK CITY // MONDAY, NOVEMBER 24TH 2008 » Hip-hop mogul Sean Diddy Combs recently revealed a new advertisement for his brand new “I Am King” men’s cologne.

No, that’s not a typo … we really mean FIGHTS! With an “s.” If you didn’t know what the “Dirty Awards” were before today, then you damn sure know what they are now! The 2008 Dirty Awards, hosted by Radio One, went down last night in Atlanta at the Georgia International Congress Center. The show, hosted by rapper David Banner, went on without a hitch … that is, until Atlanta rapper Shawty Lo hit the stage.

Shawty Lo called his version “Don’t I.” While we don’t know the specifics of all of the details, we do know someone from Grand Hustle (eyewitnesses say it was Alfamega) got heated and threw a chair on the stage, and it all went downhill from there. Authorities broke up the fight, and the show continued.
