CHICAGO — “Sign or die, n*gga” was all he said according to an employee that witnessed a man force Michael Jordan to take off his personal pair of “Gamma” 11′s and sign his autograph. Nba legend Michael Jordan was robbed at gunpoint during an in-store sneaker signing for the Gamma 11′s released earlier today at a Chicago sneaker boutique. “He asked what size I wear and then said come up off them, bruh” Said a visibly angry Michael Jordan during the police report who also noted “this little n*gga called me bruh. Like we was family or something, but I ain’t never met that n*gga”. According to local police the description of the robber fit many of Chicago’s youth; African American, about 5’6 with dreadlocks to which Jordan agreed while also stating “Hell it could of been Chief Keef for all I know, but luckily for Chicago he already in jail.” Slim box

The words include "God, One Nation, with Liberty and Justice For All."Underneath the description on eBay, Zimmerman writes, "Everyone has been asking what I have been doing with myself. I found a creative, way to express myself, my emotions and the symbols that represent my experiences.""My art work allows me to reflect, providing a therapeutic outlet and allows me to remain indoors :) I hope you enjoy owning this piece as much as I enjoyed creating it," Zimmerman wrote. He signed it, "Your friend, George Zimmerman."Check out photos of the painting in the above slide. What do you think of Zimmerman

T.I. Explains How His Rap and Family Personas Are Different

Image
T.I. recently stopped by The Russ Parr Morning Show to talk about his life as a rapper and his life as a family man. T.I. primarily attributed his ability to retain both aspects of his life to both diversity and evolution."I think diversity is the key," said the rapper. "Diversity is the key as well as evolution. You know what I mean? I think that when you say 'hardcore' I mean, I don't even know—like what is that? I think I talk about my life and my experiences, you know? I think—I'm just speaking about my children and all that in all of my albums."T.I. continued, talking about the two sides of his life: "But it's another side to me. You know, what you see is 'Family Hustle' and that's usually me before I leave the house. Before I even get dressed. Now once I get in the car and I head into the city, you know, it's a different face on. You know what I mean?"Source: HipHopDX

Lil Wayne's Ex Toya Wright Arrested in Georgia

Image
Lil Wayne's ex-wife Toya Wright was arrested in College Park, GA on Tuesday, and according to TMZ, details surrounding the situation are unclear. She was reportedly pulled over and police noticed that she had a warrant out for her arrest, which was rumored to have came about after she failed to show up for court. Another unclear piece of information stems from why she was in court to begin with. Toya has yet to speak out on the situation after being released on $290 bond, but it's clear from her mugshot that she's none too happy about getting locked up.

Dr. Dre Says He Doesn't Listen to His Music After It's Finishe

Image
Dr. Dre is notoriously reclusive when it comes to media coverage, but recently the legendary producer opened up about a number of things in an interview with Esquire. Dre revealed that he only listens to his music during the creative process, not after it's been completed. "I don't even listen to the records after they come out," said Dre. "It's outlawed in my house. My wife and my kids can't play any of my music around me. Once it comes out, for me, it's just business. Numbers."Dre also spoke about how the creative process sometimes gets a hold of him. "I've gone seventy-nine hours without sleep, creating," he said. "When that flow is going, it's almost like a high. You don't want it to stop. You don't want to go to sleep for fear of missing something. "Source: HipHopDX 

Michigan Women Required to Get "Rape Insurance" For Abortions

Image
A new law was passed in Michigan recently which has been dubbed as the "rape insurance" policy, that has many politicians and women in general upset.  The Michigan state legislature which is Republican dominated, passed a law on Wednesday, December 11th, with a 27-11 vote int the Senate and a 62-47 vote in the House, which requires women to purchase separate insurance policies if they ever wish to have an abortion.Republican Nancy Jenkins shared her reasoning behind supporting the bill to the Detroit Free Press."I don't think elective abortion should be a part of insurance.  This doesn't affect access to abortion. It will still be legal when this law takes effect. Who should be required to pay? Not Michigan taxpayers."It has been called the "rape insurance" policy by many because the abortion insurance actually bans any woman from purchasing it after she has already become pregnant under any given circumstance which sadly includes rape and incest.

Freeway Ricky Ross: "The Drug Business Funded Hip-Hop"

Image
In a recent sit down interview with HipHopDX, convicted drug trafficker "Freeway" Ricky Ross explains why the criminal justice system works perfectly and how the money from drugs helped rappers launch their careers."We gotta be honest. The drug business funded Hip Hop," he said. "Most guys didn't have money to buy $1,000 turntables or mixing boards, so Hip Hop was funded by drugs. Even if you look at the way the cycle moved from state to state, it was usually the states that had just got a hold of cocaine and were booming in the drug business. The game kind of gelled out of those areas, so when you look at it, it was vital."Ross would continue, saying, "Nobody else was going to give us a loan. Nobody was going to give a young Eazy-E a loan to go out and do records, rent a studio or any of the stuff he had to do. Nobody was gonna loan him that money to pay someone to introduce him to Jerry Heller. So he had to get his money by any means that he cou

Rick Rubin Talks Hip-Hop's Early Reactions to Him Being White

Image
>Very few producers can claim to have the level impact on hip-hop culture's success and music in general as Def Jam co-founder Rick Rubin. Along with Russell Simmons, Rubin helped push rap music onto the international stage with early records by the now legendary names like LL Cool J, Run-D.M.C., and The Beastie Boys. But before Rubin became the recording industry icon he is today, he was the rare white person immersed in a culture of black artists and fans. During an interview with Eminem's manager Paul Rosenberg and DJ Whoo Kid on Shade 45, Rubin talks about some of his associates not realizing he was white at first."Both LL and Russell couldn't believe I was white when I met them," revealed Rubin. "I told [Russell] I made this record 'It's Yours' [by T La Rock & Jazzy Jay], and he was like, 'You made that. This is the blackest record I ever heard in my life', and this was at a time when again there was nobody white at that time i

Former Pro Wrestler Banned From Walmart for

Joe Cantrell, a former pro-wrestler living in Arizona, has been banned from Walmart for life, as he claims he was trying to price match some Christmas ornaments for his family. He admitted that he normally makes a two trips to the store, because he just loves the store, but a recent trip would be his last. An employee rejected his price match, so Cantrell spoke to management, and on his way out the employee decided to call the police, claiming he was being intimidated. Cantrell was confused, saying "I was upset, but never once did I say anything to the gentleman."Once police arrived, Joe was put in handcuffs and was given a notice informing him that he was banned from Walmart for life. He began crying, and deputies let him go, but he's still expected to appear in court on the intimidation charges. Walmart spokesperson Brooke Buchanan spoke about the incident, saying "This situation was about the safety of our associate and not our ad match policy.

6-Year-Old Boy Suspended for Kissing Classmate's Hand

A first grader from Canon City, Colorado was suspended after kissing a female classmate on the cheek and hand. Hunter Yelton, 6, is probably too young to understand the concept of "sexual harassment," but school officials believe that's what he did when he leaned over and kissed the girl's hand during music class.Hunter's mom says her son and the girl are "boyfriend and girlfriend" and like each other. "She was fine with it," Jennifer Saunders told local news outlet KRDO. "The other children saw it and went to the music teacher. That was the day I had the meeting with the principal, where she first said 'sexual harassment'."His mother acknowledges that Hunter was suspended once before for "rough-housing" and kissing the same girl on the cheek, but says accusing the boy of "sexual harassment" is ridiculous."How can you do this? How can you say this about my child? Remove sexual harassment, remove it fro

Tila Tequila Claims Paul Walker's Death Was "Ritual Murder"

Gay Black Man Attacked by Hasidic Mob, Told "Stay Down Fa**ot!"

Image
The NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force is investigating the alleged beating of a 22-year-old fashion student at the hands of an ultra-Orthodox Jewish mob. Taj Patterson was walking home from a party through the predominantly ultra-Orthodox section of South Williamsburg when he says a group of at least twenty Jewish men attacked him. Patterson says that during the beating, the men yelled anti-gay slurs, including, "Stay down, f----t!""I'm walking down some block by myself and then the next thing I know, I'm surrounded by a group of Hasidic Jewish men and they're attacking me," Patterson tells the Daily News. "I was alone. I was an easy target. I'm black. I'm gay, a whole slew of reasons." The assault occurred in the wake of a number of seemingly unprovoked assaults on Jews in Brooklyn. In November, hate crime charges were filed against a suspect who allegedly attacked a Jewish man in Borough Park without provocation.In an interview with NBC New

Samsung's Galaxy Note 3 cracks 10 million sales barrier in just two months

Okay, we get it -- Samsung sells a lot of handsets and has the profits to show for it. But the company said that its new Galaxy Note 3 is far and away the most successful so far of its entire Note lineup, with 10 million units sold in a mere 60 days. That's twice thesales pace of the Galaxy Note II, and even pushing its sales champ, the Galaxy S 4, which took 50 days to hit that magic number. The Note 3 is available in 58 countries, but Samsung singled out China out as a particularly strong market due to the popularity of the S Pen and just launchedtwo new colors there. Anyway, given those numbers, it's a safe bet nobody's using "the ph-word" as an epithet for the Note 3 anymore. Engadget

Viber now lets you make calls to any phone number

Viber's quest to become the VoIP app du jour has taken another leap forward with the news that, with Version 4.1 its iOS and Android apps, you're now entitled to make calls to any mobile or landline number. The service, entitled Viber Out, was previously made available during the aftermath of Typhoon Haiyan to help affected users contact their families, but has now rolled out to all, giving you a cheaper alternative (depending on where you're calling) toMicrosoft's Skype Out service. To make things as easy as possible, Viber Out will connect itself to your phone number, letting recipients identify your call. It also allows balance top-ups via its mobile and desktop apps to help you keep on top of call costs. Viber says the updated iOS and Android apps will go live today, with Windows Phone support following soon, ensuring Microsoft has some real competition on its own turf. Engadget

NYC mayor unveils plans for massive free public WiFi network in Harlem

New York's code-loving mayor had at least one more big tech announcement to make before handing over the keys to the city at the end of the year. Mayor Mike Bloomberg announced plans to launch a free WiFi network in Harlem, spanning 95 of the uptown neighborhood's blocks. The size makes it the "largest continuous free outdoor public wireless network in the nation," by New York City's count, bringing access to 80,000 residents -- a number that includes 13,000 people living in public housing. The rollout will occur in phases, culminating next May, with five years of initial coverage currently planned.  Engadget

After More Than 12 Million Online Views Sharkeisha Is Arrested

A Texas family is horrified over a viral video showing their daughter getting sucker-punched and beaten by another girl. The brutal clip showed 17-year-old ShaMichael Manuel getting pummeled by a schoolmate named Sharkeisha, who struck her in the face when she's wasn't looking and then hit and kicked her while she was on the ground.The Harris County sheriff's office said the foulmouthed bully was arrested last Thursday on charges of assault with bodily injury. They didn't identify her because she's a minor.The Nov. 19 attack allegedly started because of a dispute over a boy, ShaMichael's family told Houston's KHOU-TV. The sickening footage has since gone viral, inspiring snarky, shark-themed memes and a popular Twitter hashtag."The video's just going and going," ShaMichael's mother, Olevia Henderson, told KHOU-TV. "They're making jokes, and they're taunting. They're glorifying the girl Sharkeisha, but they're taunting m

AT&T's lower off-contract pricing and revamped Mobile Share plans launch next week

Image
Whether or not you buy into T-Mobile CEO John Legere's UnCarrier strategy, we can't dispute the fact that it's at least making waves in the US wireless industry. Some of the network's biggest competitors are responding with new strategies of their own, and AT&T is one of them. Starting next Sunday, the GSM giant will make a few noticeable tweaks to its Mobile Share and Next plans. What's on the menu for December 8th? Quite a bit, so let's break it down.Under the current plans, your per-smartphone cost goes down as your data plan goes up; for instance, you pay $50 per smartphone on the 300MB plan, but only $30 if you're on any plan that's 10GB or higher. And as it stands right now, you still pay that same amount after your contract expires. With the new changes, you can tack smartphones onto your plan at a flat rate of $40 a pop, but you get a $15 discount on each one if you aren't in a contract. (AT&T informed us that as soon as your commitme

Cost-conscious iPhone 5s or 5c buyers will soon have a pair of fresh choices for prepaidservice. Tracfone has announced that both Straight Talk and Net10 will sell Apple's latest smartphones through Walmart on December 13th. As with unlocked devices, you'll be paying at least $549 for an iPhone 5c or $649 for its 5s counterpart; the real savings come from the plans, which start at $45 per month for unlimited calls, (throttled) data and text. You'll still want to visit carriers like T-Mobile or Virgin for the cheapest possible rates, but the new Tracfone options may be ideal for iPhone fans who want full service without a full price.

Square reveals thinner and more accurate mobile credit card reader

As Square spreads its wings to Japan, starts a new cash-by-email service and retools itsmobile apps, the humble credit card reader that started it all hasn't received much attention of late. That changes today, however, with the unveiling of the brand new Square Reader. It's 45 percent thinner than the previous iteration, which Square says makes it the "thinnest mobile card reader on the market." In order to keep the design slim while boosting its performance, Square had to custom-design several of the reader's key components. They include the magnetic readhead and spring that were specially designed for more accurate card-swiping. It also has custom electronics in a single chip so that it simply relies on the plugged-in device for power, negating the need for a separate battery. Last but not least, the audio plug has been redesigned with better communications protocols so that it'll play nice with a wider array of products. The new Square Reader will be in ar

No Malice Reveals Why He's Not Doing a Clipse Reunion

Days after G.O.O.D. Music's Pusha T revealed his brother's disinterest in making bank and getting a Clipse reunion going, No Malice has come forward to clear the air. No Malice said his newfound religion and way of living has him less concerned about Clipse-related opportunities.No Malice admits that he doesn't feel comfortable even performing Clipse's old songs anymore, which is partly why he's turned down multiple chances to perform as a group in recent months. If the duo were to make a new album, which both superstar producers Kanye West and Pharrell have advocated for, then something would have to change, he said. "I believe my brother and I... we can get together and pull off anything," he said. "But as far as my beliefs and as far as me facilitating anything that brings death, destruction and demise, I'm not going to do that."Source: HipHopDX 

FBI Can Access Laptop Cameras Without People Knowing

Image
According to The Washington Post, the FBI's hunt for a terrorist suspect known as "Mo" has lead them to creating software which allows them to hack into people's computers and even use the devices' webcams to spy on them.  The suspected terrorist, Mo, has sent multiple pictures of himself wearing an Iranian military uniform, and has also sent numerous threats against locations including American universities and airports as his intended targets.  The repeated threats made to the FBI via emails and Internet chat methods prompted the FBI's "network investigative techniques" unit to create software that can access an individual's computer and gain access to personal emails and other files.  It even goes so far as to take control of their webcam and snap pictures or record computer users without their knowledge.  The use of this invasive strategy has been cast aside by courts who argue that it is a direct violation of the Fourth Amendment; however, n

Woman Learns She Was Abducted By Her Father As A Child When Mother Asks To Be Friend On Facebook

Angela Palmer has spent most of her life believing that her own mother abandoned her as a baby. Now, at 44, she’s learned the truth and has spoken with her mom for the first time in decades. And while Palmer is thrilled, her quest isn’t over yet. Now she has to raise funds to bring the mother she never knew from Croatia to the United States.Palmer, a medical health project services coordinator, is seeking the money through the website Fundly, where, as of Tuesday, she had raised more than $1,200 of the $4,000 she needs for two round-trip plane tickets for her mother and her husband.The new beginning was triggered by, of all things, a Facebook friend request. “I was at work the week before Thanksgiving, when I received a friend request from a woman named Helga Simeckie in Croatia,” Palmer, from Oceanside, California, tells Yahoo Shine. “I didn’t think much of it because I get random requests all the time, until she sent me a message written in German asking when I was born.” Palmer, who

NY Lawmakers Considering Making Marijuana Legal

Image
Will New York join the list of legal marijuana states?A recent report reveals that there is already a law in the works, but lawmakers are afraid that some will take advantage of it.According to The Daily Post, the law entitled ""Antonio G. Olivieri Controlled Substance Therapeutic Research Program" was brought about in 1980 because of an appeal from brain cancer patient Antonio Olivieri. The law would have made it legal for doctors to administer medicinal marijuana to patients. Oliveri died shortly after the appeal, and the law was never put into place.Today, the law remains on the books and many are pushing for New York to update and expand the law to make the drug legal. Recent states that have endorsed the legal marijuana law are Illinois, New Hampshire, and Connecticut. Source: NY Post | 

Couple Arrested for Allegedly Killing Man on Craigslist for Fun

A newlywed Pennsylvania couple have been arrested and accused of killing a man they met on Craigslist to celebrate their three-week wedding anniversary and fulfill a longtime fantasy. Elytte Barbour, 22, and wife Miranda Barbour, 18, have been charged with the murder of 42-year-old Troy LaFerrara. "They went out to dinner on Veteran's Day to celebrate and to enjoy the thrill of killing," Sunbury Police Chief Stephen Mazzeo told the Daily News.Elytte Barbour told officers before his arrest last night that he and his wife had planned to kill before but their plans never worked out until LaFerrara responded to Miranda's Craigslist ad offering companionship. "She is not a prostitute," Elytte explained, saying Miranda made anywhere from $50 to $850 for meeting men for dinner or a walk. "What she does is meet men who have broken marriages or have no one in their lives and she meets with them and has delightful conversation."Sunbury police say that Elytte

  Netflix's Daredevil TV show will be lead by Cabin in The Woods director Drew Goddard

Image
Netflix's slate of original content has been extraordinarily well-received so far, and that's likely related to the people behind the shows. Big names like David Fincher and Kevin Spacey drew people to House of Cards, while the award-winning Orange is the New Black came from Jenji Kohan, the creator of Weeds. A string of collaborations with Marvel will lead off with a new 13-episode Daredevil series in 2015, and now Marvel has announced Drew Goddard will take the helm. He's serving as writer and director of the show's first episode, as well as executive producer and showrunner for the series. Previously he directed and co-wrote (with Joss Whedon) The Cabin in the Woods, and is also credited as a writer forCloverfield, World War Z, Lost and Alias. The Man Without Fear's big-screen outing didn't go so well and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. on ABC has been uneven at best, so we'll see if Goddard can turn things around this time.

T-Mobile boosts LTE network speeds in Dallas using MetroPCS spectrum I

Hey, North Dallas T-Mobile customer -- that speedier internet connection isn't a figment of your imagination. Just before Thanksgiving, the carrier silently got the ball rolling on its plans to unleash a faster LTE network. To achieve this upgrade, Deutsche Telekom combined its LTE spectrum with that of MetroPCS, which it acquired for $1.5 billion earlier this year. Best of all, T-Mo's improved network doesn't require a device upgrade (unlike Sprint's enhanced LTE service) -- your current one will work just fine. Unfortunately, Magenta's efforts are currently confined to select portions of northern Dallas, but it hopes to eventually roll out its faster LTE network to other top markets in the US. Engadget

Jewish Group Offers $5,000 for Info on "Knockout" Attackers

Image
​Leaders of the New York City Jewish community are calling for the capture of participants involved in the recent rash of violent "knockout" assaults, and are offering a cash award for information leading to their arrest. The Jewish Community Relations Council of New York (JCRC-NY) announced this week that they're willing to pay upwards of $5,000 to anyone who can assist local law enforcement to stop the wave of attacks, which have made national headlines in recent weeks and spawned a trend of similar assaults across the country.Authorities say youths in New York and elsewhere have been increasingly participating in these games of "knockout," in which groups are reported to spontaneously flock and then assault their victim with the intention of taking them to the ground in a single punch. A disproportional number of the incidents in New York have reportedly targeted Jewish residents of Brooklyn and other boroughs, and the JCRC now hopes they can drive the rate o

A Richfield, Minnesota woman fatally stabbed her husband in the heart for "wanting to bring another woman into their bedroom," according to a criminal complaint filed Tuesday. Amreya Rahmeto Shefa, 40, was charged in Hennepin County District Court with second-degree murder in the Sunday slaying of her husband, Habibi Tesema, 48.About 5 a.m., police were called to the couple's home at 7338 12th Ave S., where they lived with their 2-year-old son and 3-year-old daughter, on a report of an assault with a knife.Shefa ran from the home with blood on her hands and arms, "yelling hysterically ... about her husband and her kids," according to the complaint.

Jordan Brand Officially Welcomes Drake To Team Jordan

Just yesterday, Drake heated up the internet with pics of some very, very exclusive "OVO Stingray" Pe's that were made just for Drake (and his crew we assume). He showed off some 10's and 12's that are the envy of many sneakerheads. Well it looks like today he is bound to make the internet melt as just a few short hours ago, Jordan Brand officially welcomed Drake into the family as its first non-athlete Team Jordan member. While the Jumpman announced it through their Twitter page, Drake made it public at his show in Portland, Oregon that he was there not only for his tour stop but also to do his thing with the brand. Check the video of Drake making the announcement as well as JB's tweet. What do you guys think of this partnership? Does this trump the announcement by the Roc Boy from earlier in the week?

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 makes official debut with 5.7-inch 1080p screen and faux-leather back,

Image
Samsung's annual IFA presser is typically its Galaxy Note coming-out party and this year is no different. JK Shin, the Korean company's President and CEO, has just announced the line's latest addition: the Galaxy Note 3. With a renewed emphasis on how it feels in hand, Samsung has built this Note with a faux-leather back, which should go a long way towards silencing critics of the company's former plastic-reliant ways. It also comes pre-loaded with Knox, the company's secure BYOD solution, support for super-fast LTE Category 4, runs Android 4.3 and touts integration with the just announced Galaxy Gear smartwatch. The new Galaxy Note 3 stretches past the dimensions of its predecessor with a 5.7-inch Super AMOLED screen (vs 5.5-inches), 2.3GHz Snapdragon 800 or 1.9GHz Exynos Octa CPU, 3GB RAM, weighs 168 grams and comes in three distinct colors -- one of which is pink (!). On the inside, the Note 3's been imbued with a 3,200mAh cell -- hopefully, that's enoug

Gear smartwatch with 1.63-inch AMOLED touchscreen, built-in camera, 70 apps

Image
This week's Galaxy Gear prototype leak didn't leave much to the imagination. Samsung's new wearable was expected to debut with a built-in camera, speakers and a relatively clunky design, all of which are indeed present on the device we're meeting today. But we now have quite a bit more clarity when it comes to functionality and specifications -- the rumored 3-inch display size and 4-megapixel camera resolution, for example, were incorrect. The Gear will instead ship with a 1.63-inch Super AMOLED panel with a resolution of 320 x 320. That strap-mounted camera, for its part, is designed to capture low-res shots and 10-second 720p videos, and includes a 1.9-megapixel BSI sensor and an auto-focus lens. The big surprise here is third-party applications support -- there will be a total of 70 partner programs at launch, including sharing apps like Evernote and Path, fitness companions like RunKeeper and MyFitnessPal, and a handful of other offerings, such as TripIt, Line, Viv

Verizon announces first US pre-order date for Galaxy Note 3 and Galaxy Gear: September 6th at 9AM ET

Image
The Big Four (that'd be Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile and AT&T) have all confirmed that they'll be stocking Samsung's newly-introduced Galaxy Gear and Galaxy Note 3, but none of 'em have been bold enough as to give us two precious details: pricing and availability. We're still waiting for the damage, but VZW has come forward and alerted its customers that pre-orders will open up on September 6th. Given that the Note 3 just sailed through the FCC (and that the Gear is due to land in October), we're guessing that you'll have to wait anywhere from one to eight weeks for shipment. Engadget
