Do you remember the WASSSSUUUUPPP commercials from the year 2000? I know you do because most of you are not that old and it was such memorable commercials. Well this is "Wassup 2008"...eight years later. If you noticed that they tried to cover every facet of the issues... Health Care, Stock Market/Bad Economy, Housing Crisis, I have to honestly say this was genius on the part of the directors.

If you are a fan of McCain or Obama you can appreciate this video and what it says about the state of confusion we are in .

As you probably already heard the tragic news of Jennifer Hudson's family was found slain ed to death. We don't know if this was random or not but our prayers go out to the family


Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Jennifer Hudson’s mother was one of two victims shot and killed in Chicago earlier today.
A neighbor tells TMZ the other victim was Jennifer’s brother Jason. A cousin who lived nearby discovered the bodies.

We’re told the two bodies were found dead on the scene at 2:44 PM. When the fire department arrived and discovered the bodies, police were brought in and the home was declared a crime scene.

A call to Hudson’s rep was not immediately returned.

Who says the ladies don’t like USHER, I have to really tell you this new venture that USHER is doing is kind of different but smart. I don’t know Who gave USHER the idea to start a Lingerie line, ( Wheeew !) but it seems that this will take affect later this year .

Her upcoming releases include the 2009 Lionsgate drama “Shrink”, in which she is cast alongside Kevin Spacey and Robin Williams, and her own television show on Nickelodeon, “True Jackson VP”, in which she plays a pubescent burgeoning fashion mogul. Right before stepping on the set for her show, Keke chatted with Clutch about life, her career, and dating in Hollywood (hint: Momma Palmer isn’t having any of it).

Clutch: Keke, what’s going on?
Keke: Nothing much. I’m on the set for my new TV show on Nickelodeon called True Jackson VP.

Clutch: How long have you filming for that?
Keke: Um, this is the first episode after the pilot.

Clutch: How is the television industry different from movies, or is it different for you?
Keke: It is different, probably because the show is in California, where I live. It’s a lot more stable for me. I know what I will be doing and when I will be doing it. It’s much easier than movies because there is more structure in doing television. It’s not as organized doing movies.

Clutch: Where are you originally from, Keke?
Keke: I am from Chicago, the suburbs outside of Chicago called Robbins. It’s down past the Southside.

Clutch: How did you get started in the business?
Keke: When I was nine, my parents took me to an audition just from reading it in the newspapers, for the role of Nala in The Lion King off Broadway. I went down to the top 15, and then I was out. I was upset, but at the same time I was like this was cool and I want to try it again. My parents saw that, and said “We can put you in it and if you really like it, maybe you can do it.” I said, “I wanna do it, I wanna do it!” So they got me an agent and I got my first audition, which was Barbershop 2, playing Queen Latifah’s niece and . . . I got the part.

Clutch: [As an actor] Do you find yourself missing the typical things that a teenager enjoys, or is that something that you’re taking in stride?
Keke: Sometimes I do miss it, but most of the time I’m like “Hey, I’m doing so many good things and securing my future and having fun right now.” Hopefully, I can have a normal senior year, like a regular 18 year old. But if that doesn’t happen I think that I will be all right because I’m doing a lot of great stuff right now.

Clutch: Do you engage in typical adolescent activities of teenagers?
Keke: I go to movies and hang out with friends, hit up amusement parks, kick it at my house. Things like that.

Clutch: Do you plan on attending college?
Keke: Of course. I want to attend Howard University.

Clutch: Who is your support system?
Keke: Definitely my family and friends.

Clutch: Do you have any big brothers in the industry who look out for you?
Keke: A lot of people [in the industry] say they’re my big brothers, but we don’t really talk that much. Just mainly my family.

As much as it is a surprise to me it shouldn’t be a surprise to you ! Lil Wayne has been in college for the past few years and some how it has paid off because he is now writing a blog for the huge sports conglomerate ESPN.

Lil Weezy has been chosen to write a blog about sports. He can indeed write about anything he want but the real question is will readership increase because Weezy is writing now ?

What ever the case may be this is a good look for both parties involved

If you thought BET couldn’t get any worse, it just has- BET decided to cancel the APOLLO of HIP HOP.

Many rappers dream to be on BET’s Rap City, I could remember being in my college dorm watching guys imagining they were on BET’s Rap City . This show gave rappers something to actually reach for.

What are rappers reaching for now……. MTV’s TRL ! Man please , There needs to be a nationwide boycott on this foolishness. Rap City –being canceled is like the ending of the COSBY SHOW. I know Rap City was getting Lame itself with the sub-par mediocre Host but , com on now – this was the staple of the rap community

We are going to let MTV out shine and show black people how to really do a hip hop show by forcing people to watch the hot show SUCKA FREE SUNDAY. !

I could go on ranting about what was good and bad about this move but I would like to hear what you all have to say because apparently BET has a plan with this new show that is replacing it called ……

THE DEAL - Hip-Hop videos will continue to play but now they will be accompanied by pop-ups with facts on the given artist/song. The Booth, which was a staple on “Rap City” for artists to showcase their freestyle skills, will also remain a segment on the new series.
