Kanye West Remains Silent On Tour Cancellation

So far, Kanye West has remained silent on the announcement of the “Fame Kills” tour being cancelled. Knowing my luck, he just posted a response on his blog. But as I am writing this, he hasn’t.

His silence is surprising because he usually writes there all the time to responses or other things that concern him. Nothing yet as questions loom.

Did he want the tour to be cancelled? Did 50 Cent who recently called it the “Gay Tour” have anything to do with his decision? Was he always wanting to back out? Are the rumors of him going to rehab true?

Last weekend at Common’s fund raiser concert where Kanye performed to a electric crowd happy to see him, we hear that Kanye turned into a diva over drinks and food not being offered to him and being upset he had to ask before he got it.  Maybe they should called it the “Diva Tour” and when is Kanye going to grow up?

Listen, we all know what Kanye did at VMA’s was just Kanye being Kanye. It was blown out of proportion even though it was hella rude.  Are we forgetting his controversial Rolling Stone cover where he came off as Jesus Christ even though he said that was not how he meant it?  You ever seen Kanye’s MTV Diary?  He has been doing this stuff for a while. Even if it is Kanye being Kanye, after a while, people do get tired of it.

He is talented without a doubt musically. His people skills totally suck and you can’t argue that. What I do call into question is what he tries to accomplish off the stage and out of the studio.  Straight up, Kanye is an artist at war with himself and has a lot of personal issues he needs to get a handle of.

In a few words or less, I am calling Kanye out. I am awaiting your response. Don’t be silent. If you get pissed, just call me a bunch of names playing on my name. Other people do it. It makes them think they are cool. But Kanye, do us all a favor and stop being silent and let out that inner bitch of what really happened. You know you want to.

So what do you think of Kanye’s reaction to the tour cancellation?-Dr.FB

Mariah Carey’s new CD has been pushed back from the end of August til the middle of September because of digital retail issues. The Dr. smells doo-doo. 

Whitney Houston’s new CD drops September 1st, which would knock Mimi out of the top spot after 1 week then big release by Jay Z and 50 Cent would knock it further down. With her latest song not fairing so well, it is the right decision.

Meanwhile, Mariah and Mr. Mariah Carey Nick Cannon ate out in New York over the weekend, pretending that Mariah was happy with everything going on and grabbing a delicious meal. Hoping that Mariah’s CD doesn’t bomb because that cover is straight hotness. But I learned long ago, you can’t judge a CD by it’s cover.-Dr.FB

Which CD would you buy?-Dr.FB

Video: Eminem’s “Crack A Bottle”

Posted in Celebrity News, Entertainment, Music on June 10th, 2009 by drfunkenberry


Eminem’s video for “Crack A Bottle” has leaked early and I got it for you. The song features Em, Dr. Dre & 50 Cent.

Now, it does not feature them in the video but is entertaining and disturbing all at the same time and I like this song more and more as I hear it.  Earlier this year…not so much but it has grown on me.

Thoughts?-Dr.FB

Thanks to Baller Status for the hook up!

Vivica Fox On The Prowl For Flo Rida?

Fox is one sexy mama at 40-ish.  She is the original cougar, how old was 50 Cent when she dated him? 

Everyone knows she loves a younger man.  She recently commented on Zac Efron and his cuteness  but says he’s way too young.  Her “cut-off” is 28.  “By then they should have their career and own identity, a bank account and a platinum card”, she told the ‘Today Show’.

Flo-Rida is right in her age range.  Towards the end of her interview, the Today’s Show hosts grilled her for dating younger men, that’s when two very known names came up.  Ne-Yo and Flo Rida.

“Ne-Yo is cute, but he is just a friend”, she said.  When asked if Flo Rida was just a friend, Vivica just gave the cameras a grin before laughing it off.

Vivica believes younger men are attracted to older women because it’s less drama and more secure.

Vivica Hosts “The Cougar” on Wednesday nights at 10pm on TV Land.

50 Cent; “My CD’s Been Pushed Back Because Of Eminem”

Posted in Celebrity News, Entertainment, Music on February 27th, 2009 by drfunkenberry

 Fitty 50 Cent says in the video above that his CD is now being pushed back because Dr. Dre is mixing Eminem’s CD. Hmm. We would say maybe it is getting pushed back because the 1st 2 single’s did nothing at radio but we would not want 50 to open up a  bottle of Vitamin Water cap on us.-Dr.FB
