LAILA ALI GIVES BIRTH TO FIRST CHILD » Female boxer Laila Ali and former NFL star Curtis Conway welcomed the first child together into the world yesterday morning. Curtis Muhammad Conway came into the world weighing in at 6.8 pounds, measuring 19 inches long, which is no surprise seeing as his mom and grandpa are boxers and his dad is a football player. This kid definitely has an athletic future ahead of him!

Conway already has three children – 13-year-old twin boys and a 9-year-old daughter – from a previous relationship.

KANYE WEST SUED FOR COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT » Another day, another bogus lawsuit against my boy Kanye West. Kanye is being sued by a Maryland songwriter/producer for copyright infringement.

Dayna “D’Mystro” Staggs filed the lawsuit in Maryland District Court last week claiming West “didn’t obtain a license” to sample his record “Volume of Good Life” for the song featured on West’s third album, “Graduation,” reports WENN. In legal papers, Staggs states West “was only at the age of six or seven years of age” when his song was written. He has also objected to the “vulgar and offensive” images associated with the song, claiming it “harms the reputation” of his inoffensive tune.

Staggs seeks 85 percent of all world sales of the proceeds from “Good Life,” although he fails to detail exactly how he came up with that number, reports WENN. West is named in the lawsuit alongside his various record labels, including his own G.O.O.D. Music and Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter’s Roc-A-Fella Records. [ VIA EUR WEB » ]

85%? Dude must be on something serious! And here I am thinking Good Life sampled Michael Jackson’s PYT. I gotta take a listen to this Volume of Good Life song though. The only thing that and Kanye’s “Good Life” probably has in common is the name, lol!
