omnipresence is everywhere

Ah, the first post of the year! We're only ten days deep into the year, and already there are silly occurrences. One "noteworthy" occurrence is Curtis James Jackson III's, whom we all know and love as 50 Cent, release of a condom line. The candy shop now has all your contraceptive needs, and we should be thankful.
Busta Rhymes is bustin the faces of fans once again. Last week, Busta woo-hahed on someone who asked for an autograph. Make a note.
In the political arena, president Bush has just ok'd the shipment of 21,000 troops to Iraq to help the country "break the current cycle of violence." That's actually a good plan, fighting violence with violence. Why wasn't this thought of earlier? Years of funds, not to mention lives, wasted, when the simple solution was just to get rowdier.
A less menacing confrontation took place in San Francisco, where Lady Sov, Def Jam/Island's sweetheart,suffered her own ambush. Rapper, JellyDonunt, challenged Sov to battle at her show at the Mezzanine, in defense of his homie, a guy who paid $10,000 for a date with the shortest mcee in the game. Apparently, the Sov wasn't having it and poured red bull on him. Busta Rhymes is not a good influence for hip-hop's youth. Tisk, tisk.

Show schedules for the next month in the New York/ Philly area to come.
