"The Life And Times Of Prophecy"
Soak Up The Sun
History In The Making
Let The Game Begin
Mason Betha just put out a Not-So-Cryptic Tweet from his Twitter Handle, @SaintMason, saying:
“Wow.. I Just Got A G.O.O.D. Offer!!!”
Clearly, Minister Ma$e is referring to Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. Music Label on Def Jam Records. Kim Kardashian’s Beau already has seasoned Veterans under his label like John Legend and former Cash Money Co-Founder, Mannie Fresh with an album due out soon. Common was also one of the first signed to the label but left it last year. Kanye also recently signed Teyana Taylor.
Ma$e left the Rap Game in 1999 after finding God and becoming a Born-Again Christian, just a few short years after the fall of Tupac Shakur and former Bad Boy Labelmate Christopher Wallace a.k.a. 2Pac and Notorious B.I.G.
Ma$e returned to Hip-Hop with his original Mentor, Sean “Diddy” Combs in 2004, and with lackluster response, left the game again, only to feel inspired to return after Michael Jackson’s passing in 2009.
And it looks like he’ll be getting quite the 2nd Comeback now with Kanye behind the G.O.O.D. Music.
Let’s just see if that G.O.O.D. Music is also mixed in with some Good News.

Celebrate The Life... Regret And Mourn The Loss
Today Marks the 15 Year Anniversary of when Christopher Wallace, A.K.A. The Notorious B.I.G. A.K.A. Biggie Smalls was gunned down in front of the Petersen Automotive Museum off Fairfax and Wilshire in Los Angeles.
Wallace was attending the Vibe Magazine Soul Train Music Awards After-Party on Saturday Night, March 9th, 1997 when he was gunned down by an unknown assailant, who drove off into the night…. putting an end to the East Coast / West Coast Beef that culminated in the most tragic losses in Hip-Hop History… including Tupac’s Murder in Las Vegas after a Mike Tyson fight at the MGM Grand on September 7th, 1996.
And just as Dexter Isaac wrote a letter from jail admitting his responsibility for shooting Tupac at the Times Square Studios in 1994 on the 15 year anniversary of his death… Today, Retired Los Angeles Police Detective, Greg Kading announced that he knows who pulled the trigger in Biggie’s murder… The man in question is also deceased, dying from gunshot wounds.
For the sake of my safety, considering everybody knows my whereabouts at all times… I will not go any further into these claims and allegations.. you can search them all out yourself as many other sites have posted this information.
In the end, no amount of murder or case solving, or evidence or finger pointing will ever bring back our 2 Greatest Hip-Hop Artists of All Time, Tupac Shakur and Christopher Wallace.
In the end, our lesson to take from this is the fact that life is precious… and each individual and unique life happens only once, and once it is gone, it is gone for good.
R.I.P. B.I.G.

As Biggie As You Can Get
Here’s “Notorious” Star Jamal Woolard reminding us just how much he looks like Christopher Wallace a.k.a. Biggie Smalls a.k.a. Notorious B.I.G., and reminding us why it is he got the job to play Biggie in the first place.
Jamal is seen here at the Pre-Grammy party at the now historic Tru Hollywood.

Yet another night to remember.

What's a Dogg Without His Treats? Snoop And A Nice Bleez
daamnit if the entire West Coast didn’t come out for Snoop’s party to launch Blast from the makers of Colt 45 and Snoop’s new album “Doggumentary” which was released on MySpace earlier this week… Kurupt, Warren G, Too Short, DJ Quik and … wait, hold up !! Paris and Nicky Hilton?
Wire Image: Who woulda Thought Paris and Nicky would be reppin Thug Life !!
Now if this were to have happened back in the day, Snoop might’ve risked losing some “street cred”… but lucky for him, not only is he a superstar in his own right, but Hip-Hop culture is completely intertwined now with Pop Culture. As a matter of fact, having Paris and Nicky at your Hip-Hop party probably adds to your street cred, cause it shows just how much your music crosses all boundaries.
And boy, was Colt 45 really trying their hardest to sell that “Blast”… They sure did the damn thang… They even brought out 101 Damenations lookin fine and crowdin up the entire sidewalk across Sunset Blvd. outside of Trousdale, where the event was being held.
Colt 45's 101 Damenations
Outside of the club, DJ Quik gave love to Nate Dogg’s families to the cameras… and in addition to that, it’s lookin like DJ Quik may just be down to work with the kid. Stay tuned and I’ll keep you posted on that shizz.
Other celebrity guests included Ryan Cabrera, Megan Goode, Chris Evans, and Natasha Henstridge, as well as the always beautiful Ashlan Gorse from E!. You know that chick is tall as fu*k!!
And you know what, it def felt like an old school West Coast Gangsta Rap party since there was like 6 squad cars of sheriffs outside, just itchin and waitin for some whoridaz.
Luckily, there wasn’t one. Keep the peace ladies and gentlemen
btw, u know people have been wondering why Snoop would release his new album on MySpace. Execs were telling the company they need to turn it around or else… I guess this is their first step in heading back into our culture… and they must’ve paid Snoop some major loot $$$
