Bow Wow is currently working on his seventh recording album, Pedigree, which is set to be released in stores this Fall 2008. He already has a single out featuring Soulja Boy titled “♫ Marco Polo”. His long time male role model and producer, Jermaine Dupri, was ejected in some of Bow Wow’s previous projects but Bow Wow has repaired those “misunderstandings”:
“He’s my father,” Bow Wow said. “He’s the dude when you in the crib and have your arguments, you move out the crib. … But me and JD are back tight again. We hanging out every day. I’m putting him on this song Swizz Beatz did for me called ‘Big Bank Take Little Bank.’ I’m trying to throw him on there right now. Y’all gonna see JD on the album even if he just gets on there and says, ‘Y’all know what this is!’ He’s gonna be a part of it even if I have to drag him.”

RICK ROSS WAS A CORRECTIONS OFFICER BACK IN THE DAY » Over the past couple of days, rumors began to spread about rapper Rick Ross‘ past employment as a corrections officer in Dade County, FL, and it all started with a comment made by fellow Miami rapper Trick Daddy. Of course, in true hip-hop fashion, Ricky Ross denied the allegations stating that his life was “100% real,” and accused his “haters” of photoshopping his face onto someone else’s body. Well, it turns out, Mr. Ross (real name: William Roberts) was indeed a corrections officer, according to official reports leaked by TheSmokingGun.com. Way to go, Ricky! Or should I say, Willy…
The site matched the rapper’s Social Security number with that of William Roberts who graduated from the Florida Department of Corrections (DoC) training academy and was assigned to Dade County’s South Florida Reception Center in December of 1995. He was 19 years old at the time. He left the job in 1997.
At 19 years old, William Roberts graduated from the Florida Department Corrections training academy and was hired as a prison guard in a Dade County prison in December of 1995. He left the job 2 years later, and about 9 years later, became the rapper we all know as Rick Ross. Wow, what a life history!
(PHOTO: WIREIMAGE) A federal appeals court threw out the fine of $550,000 “indecency” fine to CBS for the 2004 halftime show at the Superbowl. As we all know and the rest of America, Janet Jackson performed then Justin Timberlake came out and at the end of the set Justin reached and grabbed for Janet’s costume and ripped apart of the wardrobe and exposing Janet’s breast. The reason that the courts decided not to fine because they felt that the FCC jumped so hard into trying to fine for high amounts of money before investigating the situation and they never notified the courts of such high amounts of money due to the viewer rate. I feel this has gone on for too long, 4 years to be exact, and I’m tired of it. I still dislike Justin Timberlake for this performance. And for him to bring this back up at the ESPYs upset me all over again. I’m glad CBS weren’t fined for this.

Flint police officers attempt to “crack down” on sagging pants by enforcing a dress code that requires all residents to wear their pants specifically at their waistline. Now, Chief Administrator of Flint’s PD, David Dicks believes pants sagging to be a “national nuisance,” he tells the Free Press. Dicks also thinks pants-sagging is “indecent exposure” and “disorderly conduct”; he wants to put an end to it once and for all. From now on, if you are caught violating this law, you will be subject to 93 days to a year in jail and/or $500 in fine payments.
In my opinion, I think this is both time wasting and unnecessary. Surely there must be greater and more important laws to enforce? To dictate how a person should wear their clothes inside their community, other than in a corporate setting, is an unjust and class-less law at best. Unless Flint PD plans on administrating belts, as ludicrous as that sounds, I do not see the saggy-pants thing going away anytime soon. To say pants-sagging is indecent and disorderly, that is your personal opinion, but it is not not right to speak for everyone as a consensus. And do not stuff your fundamental views or values down the throats of people who were raised differently than you or are in a completely different generation. If pants-sagging is not hurting anyone it is not disorderly; if pants-sagging is not suggesting anything lewd/sexual it is not indecent. I think that this is a perfect example of innocent citizens of these United States getting their rights stripped of them; this country is slowly but surely becoming a harsh dictatorship. Pretty soon there is going to more frivolous laws stating how you should look, dress, and appeal to standards. Oh, wait, there are laws like that already!
Now, we here at T2W do not endorse any type of retaliation towards Chief, but if you would like to send him your prayers you can do so HERE.

Rev Run, Justine, and Miley Simmons cover the July 2008 issue of JET Magazine. In this issue Rev Run and Justine talk about how happy they are about becoming adoptive parents nearly one year after their daughter Victoria passed away hours after being born.
Rev Run and Justine also talk about why others should consider asoption:
“There are other women out there who can’t have babies and they keep trying. They get so caught up with ‘I gotta have my own.’ If people knew that they would get that same feeling from adoption, I think more [couples] would adopt and not go through the heartache of trying and miscarrying.”
You can see the entire family on Run’s House, Wednesdays at 10pm on MTV.
