Apparently, the artists of So Icey Entertainment don't take too kindly to people throwing rocks in their direction. Outside of Gucci Mane, OJ Da Juiceman and Wacka Flocka Flame, who even know that the label even had any other artists in the stable?
Evidently they do as artist Frenchie looks to defend his team after shots were fired by Brisco with the release of the diss record “Waka Blaka” shortly after Flame was robbed and shot twice earlier this month.
According to Brisco his diss was only a response to Gucci who had made reference to him being robbed off one of his mixtapes.
And of course, there was a whole bunch of idle threats, lots of talk about a lack of street credibility and all the usual ingredients that these rappers keep mixing when they see the video camera's light go red to record.
Guess that there will be more in store from Brisco and So Icey Entertainment. See what happens when OJ Da Juiceman is left in charge?
The wife of former President George W. Bush is taking on a new role, this time as a member of the Smithsonian's Black History board.
With her new position she'll join the board in charge of raising money for the Smithsonian's forthcoming National Museum of African American History and Culture scheduled to open in 2015.
Congress will pay for half of the building if investors can cover the rest of the cost.
So far several celebrities have donated to the cost of the building including Oprah and Quincy Jones.
How ironic that the woman whose husband doesn't care about Black people would take on a role like this.

Talking about being an O.G. A 67-year old wounded one of the burglars who broke into his home to steal his medical marijuana on Sunday in Sacramento, California.
67-year-old James Tillman pulled his heat on one of the armed suspects when they invaded his crib and went for his 9mm and a shotgun.
"We went back and forth and I shot him. They just didn't give a damn. They knew we were in here with the lights on and with kids. "
A 19-year old suspect was shot in the hand and his since been arrested. Police believe at least three suspects were in the home and the others have yet to be apprehended.
Winnie Mandela, the ex-wife of South African leader Nelson Mandela, is threatening legal action against the makers of a bio-pic in her honor, in part because Jennifer Hudson has been cast to play her in the film.
Winnie Madikizela-Mandela claims she was not consulted for the film and coincides with the Creative Workers Union of South Africa who objected to plans for Jennifer Hudson to portray Winnie in the film.
According to Mandela, a South African actress would have been a better fit for the role.
Despite her disapproval, the producers of the film, Andre Pieterse and Darrell Roodt, have decided to continue on as schedule with the making of Winnie-A Story after failing to make an agreement with her lawyers.
The film will tell the story of the woman described as the “mother of her country” despite being convicted of kidnapping a 14-year-old who was later found beaten to death and being charged with 40 counts of fraud.
The producers say they meant no disrespect by making the film.
The chapter of the National Socialist Movement in Colorado, a white supremacist group, will be heading out on the roads to pick up litter in the Mile High State. Calling itself America's Nazi Party, the organization is participating in an Adopt-A-Highway program and will be responsible for picking up trash along a 1-mile (1.6-kilometer) stretch of highway in a suburb north of Denver.
A sign is already up in the area with the group's name on it. The state allowed the charity work because it could be in violation of the group's freedom of speech if denied. Stacy Stegman, a spokesperson for the Colorado Department of Transportation, stated,
"Our initial inclination was to deny their application. We really had no grounds to deny them. We were considering on denying them based on the fact that there could be a potential for violence not that there was. Right now we're giving them the benefit of the doubt. "
Neal Land, a Corporal in the Nazi organization also added that they intend to make their presence even further known in the area.
"We stand for white rights... purity of race. I want people to know that we're here in this state and we're active in this state and most of all we're doing good things in this state. We're not a group out there selling drugs, running guns. We don't support any illegal activities of any sort. Yes we're gonna be active with community services. Yes we're gonna be active with demonstrations. Yes we're gonna be active with handbills and flyers."
These dudes better be careful... For some reason a hit-and-run is foreseeable in their future.
The world is apparently going crazy in front of everyone's eyes as a 12-year-old is being accused of selling marijuana at his/her elementary school, Eisenhower Elementary, located in Northwest Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
It was actually the child's grandparents who sent the initial alert after seeing a suspicious text message within the pre-teen's phone and reacted by telling the principal.
Upon investigating the student, it was reported that she found a bag of marijuana within his/her backpack.
SMH…it's beginning to be safe to say that the United States is on a sharp decline. What kind of recession is this where a child has to resort to street hustling for milk money?
It seems that Master P has some issues with his young homey Lil Wayne. As previously reported, The Young Money leader expressed his opinion that he thought his home town New Orleans Saints would lose to Brent Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. Obviously that wasn't the case last week as fumbles and turnovers proved to be their downfall.
Well P has allegedly written a blog expressing his thoughts and his disappointment in Wayne's choice. Taking Wayne's pick a lil' too seriously, P sounds as if the fate of N.O. weighed on Birdman Jr.'s pick.
I mean really, it's only a game. Not like their win is gonna bring proceeds to fix up the Black neighborhoods since Hurricane Katrina although The French Quarters and Bourbon Street look like they were never touched. Read Percy Miller's disappointment below:
“As a young child growing up in New Orleans, I always wanted to see the Saints go to the Super Bowl,” said P. “I've always worn black and gold colors as No Limit Jerseys and always represented for the New Orleans Saints by wearing their caps and jerseys. The comment Lil Wayne made about New Orleans Saints losing to the Minnesota Vikings, made no sense to me as a New Orleans native. This is our (more...)
