Once known on the Bad Boy roster as Loon, Amir Junaid Muuhadith has returned a changed man since his conversion to Islam.
Now casting the music business to the side in order to embrace his religion, the former rapper has diffused any speculation of him ever picking up a microphone to throw any type of lyrical bars.
Muuhadith was recently spotted on Georgia State University's campus as he was handing out copies of the Qur'an with (more...)
In the aftermath of “Tiger-Gate 2009,” lawmakers and citizens alike are searching the legal texts of their respective states in search of knowledge that may help them in their quest to navigate the troubled waters of marriage.
Over half of America's marriages end in divorce, with adultery ranking highly among the reasons for separation. Even though it has become more accepted in society, in one state it is still frowned upon, and being caught in the act will cost you…literally.
New Hampshire has had a law in its state that specifically targets those who commit acts of infidelity, making the relationship ending act as legal as marijuana in the state; that is to say, it is not legal at all.
The cost of cheating on a spouse, $1200, pales In comparison to the former punishment of having to stand on the gallows for an hour while wearing a noose or receiving 39 lashes, but the psychiatric sting is still as painful.
In spite of the law's 200-year-old history, many of the states legislators are attempting to have it forced in legal retirement.
“We shouldn't be regulating people's sex lives and their love lives,” remarked state congressman Timothy Horrigan. “We shouldn't be in the business of regulating what consenting adults do.”
Several legislators are attempting to have the law repealed.
In the aftermath of Nevada approving a new method to test men for infectious diseases, a local brothel is prepping to serve up what some are hailing as a proverbial breath of fresh air for the desert whoring circuit.
The Shady Lady Ranch and its owner, Bobbi Davis, are actively promoting the addition of male prostitutes in their sexual wholesale domicile, making them the first to do so in the state funded by carnal desires and humanistic iniquity.
“With so many male revues going on in Vegas, we thought it was time to give this a try,” said Davis to the press.
The move presents itself as a shrewd by design, but in actuality, it is rooted in desperation. A brutal economic climate has wounded a once thriving sex industry.
Men have traditionally been barred from being sex workers due largely to insufficient methods of STD checking. A new health board regulation allows for urethral testing. Female sex workers are carefully monitored via cervical examination.
No licensed prostitute has contracted HIV in Nevada for more than 25 years.
For those that never thought an openly gay man or woman could be elected as the head of a major Bible Belt city need only look at Houston for a new reality, as it has become the first major city to do so.
Former City Comptroller Annise Parker overcame what some thought to be insurmountable odds to beat opponent Gene Locke with 53% of the total vote. Sadly, only 16.5% of Houston's population turned out to vote.
The race took an inflammatory turn after conservative voters brought Parker's, 53, sexuality in the race. Locke tried to keep his distance from many of his opponent's most ardent supporters while banking on their vote to propel them to victory.
Houston has traditionally been a predominately democratic state with about 1/3 and 25% of Black Americans identifying themselves as Democrats. Nearly 60,000 of its denizens are homosexual.
An insightful, internally conducted investigation chronicling the activities of New Orleans' finest after Hurricane Katrina destroyed the once vibrant city is bringing to light some disturbing facts on those assigned to protect and serve.
A joint investigation by The New Orleans Times-Picayune, PBS' “Frontline” television show, and ProPublica.com are creating more questions in reference to actions taken by several New Orleans Police Officers in the hurricane's aftermath, where several civilians were fatally shot for reasons that are still unknown.
Many others were wounded by law enforcement use that ranges well beyond the boundaries of acceptable police force.
The investigation also revealed that officers assigned to investigate police wrongdoing did little more than speak to their fellow brothers-in-shield. One case of note saw an investigating detective overlook the fact that a victim was shot in the back of his head which ran contradictory to the sworn testimony given by the officer in question; a fact that she would have noticed had she read the autopsy report.
Numerous members of NOPD and several local and city officials have been tried or are under grand jury investigation after committing atrocities against mankind in Katrina's wake.
As of late, rapper Joell Ortiz has been dropping freestyle after freestyle, giving his own adaptations of artist's recent tracks.
Attacking Beanie Sigel's “I Go Off," Eminem's “Taking My Ball” and even Sade's “Soldier Of Love," the Brooklyn Bomber has been in the process of cooking up the Road Kill Mixtape, which is slated to drop Tuesday.
While on tour with Tech N9Ne and Slaughterhouse, the Latin rapper has been grinding out verses whenever the opportunity has presented itself.
With the grand finale being his sophomore album, Free Agent, this will be able to hold most over until February when that project officially drops.
Watch the promo for the upcoming mixtape here:
In an ongoing case, authorities of the Baker Police Department are on the hunt for three Black males who are all suspects to a rape case involving a 12-year-old girl.
Darryl “Buck” White, Darren “Lil” White and “Tyzcheron “Ty” Scott are the three suspects that police are currently searching for. The three are all members of a local Louisiana gang known as the Zoo Boyz.
While on the chase for the remaining three, Kenny “K.J.” Allen, 18, and Kendell “Ty Ty” Upkins, 18, have already been retrieved and are now in custody. All five suspects are facing charges of aggravated rape.
The world is becoming a truly horrifying place to live in.

An elementary school teacher in Milwaukee is being charged with disorderly conduct after cutting off one of her student's braids in class. The student, 7-year-old Lamaya Cammon, says her teacher cut off one of her braids, which are adorned with beads, because she was playing with it.
According to the little girl, the teacher lured her to her desk with candy before reaching for scissors and cutting off a lock of hair.
Lamaya's mother, Helen Cunningham, was furious and told WISN Milwaukee that when she confronted the teacher, their response was:
“'Well, I do apologize but I was frustrated.”
The Milwaukee Public School District said it is going through the disciplinary process with the teacher, who remains in class, although Cammon has been moved to a different classroom by the principal.
So far the educator has only been fined $175 for the incident.

I'm sorry but a simple “sorry” doesn't cut it, no pun intended.
If that were me, and my momma found out a teacher cut my hair…….ohhh lord.
A Kid Cudi concert went astray Saturday after the MC hopped off the stage and punched a fan in the face. During Cudi's performance in Vancouver, Canada an object was thrown on stage causing him to jump into the crowd and attack the man who threw it. That man has since been identified as (more...)
