CHRIS BROWN: ANGER MANAGEMENT MAY NOT BE WORKING!

Shocking, we know. Anger management class graduate Chris Brown apparently forgot to take his chill pills before heading out into the world on Wednesday. The hot-tempered singer was allegedly involved in two separate arguments in the course of one day. First, an incident in Bermuda stalled Breezy’s departure before his private

plane finally took off without his security guard, Big Pat, on board, according to the Bermuda Sun. A worker at the airport tells the paper that Big Pat got off the plane and announced he wasn’t getting back on because of some sort of argument with his boss, who reportedly flew back home short one entourage member.

Later that day, TMZ cameras caught Chris bickering with a bowling alley valet in Studio City, Calif., over the cost of having his car parked. While someone in his crew attempts to tamp down the tension, Breezy, who is reportedly worth $22 million, can be heard yelling, “F— ten dollars … We gonna turn this whole thing on out.” The kicker? He was at the bowling alley for a charity event.

CHRIS BROWN AND FRANK OCEAN FIGHT: POLICE INVOLVED

20130129-085642.jpgA day after a parking lot altercation
 that has both sides pointing fingers and Frank Ocean asking for charges to be filed against Chris Brown, Breezy’s attorney is reportedly eager to have his client talk to investigators.

Odd Future crooner Ocean has already spoken to cops and is “desirous of prosecution in this incident,”
 according to a Los Angeles County Sheriff’s spokesman, who said Brown has been named as a suspect in a battery report.

On Monday, TMZ, which early on quoted an unnamed source saying Brown was not involved in the brawl, reported that law enforcement sources told them that Brown’s lawyer, Mark Geragos, has been in touch. Famed Los Angeles attorney Geragos, who has handled cases for everyone from Michael Jackson and Winona Ryder to accused murderer Scott Peterson, reportedly told police that Brown is “ready, willing and able” to give them an account of the fight, because Geragos said his client was not involved.

Unnamed sources told the site that Geragos’ team have a surveillance tape of the end of the scuffle that shows that Brown did not throw any punches. TMZ reported that the tape also clears Ocean, who does not appear to throw punches either. The fighting appears to be between the singer’s respective crews. The video, however, only captures the end of the fight and is not conclusive, because it started in the parking lot of a Los Angeles recording studio where there were no cameras.

The altercation ended up in the lobby of the studio, where it was caught on camera. TMZ said Brown’s account is “radically different” from that of an unnamed witness who claimed that the singer threw the first punch. That witness told TMZ that Brown started the fight after Ocean dissed him in front of his crew and refused to shake Breezy’s hand. The source added that Frank laughed at the dis, while Brown was so angered he “coldcocked Ocean and started an all-out war.”

Once the fight moved to the lobby, sources said it demolished the studio, as the brawlers “managed to break almost everything in the room and scare all of the staff members” before the receptionist called 911. The Sheriff’s spokesman said officials do not believe the incident rises to the level of an assault and could just be a “minor scuffle over a parking spot.”

If Brown is implicated or charged, it could have serious implications on his five-year probation from his 2009 assault on on-again, off-again girlfriend Rihanna.


Brown has one more year of probation left to serve from the highly publicized 2009 incident, but this new brawl with Ocean could land him in hot water again. Neither Brown nor Ocean has issued a formal statement on the matter, though both have taken to social media to update their followers, with Ocean tweeting that he “got jumped” by Chris and a couple guys.”

On Monday, Brown Instagrammed that he was trying to focus on his work, “not negativity,” before posting a drawing of Jesus on the cross with the caption: “Painting the way I feel today. Focus on what matters!”

Both Brown and Ocean are Grammy nominees, and though the show had to shuffle its lineup in 2009 after Brown’s assault on Rihanna, sources at CBS and the Recording Academy told Entertainment Weekly that as of right now the fight should not affect the February 10 show’s scheduled performances. Neither Brown nor Ocean have been officially announced as Grammy performers, but Ocean did tweet that an injury to his finger as a result of the fight means “I can’t play w/two hands at the Grammys.”

CHRIS BROWN AND DRAKE OFFERED 1 MILLION DOLLARS BY PROMOTER TO FIGHT EACH OTHER

A celebrity boxing promoter is hoping to capitalize on the alleged nightclub brawl between singer Chris Brown and rapper Drake by offering them $1 million each to take their beef to the ring.

The promoter, Damon Feldman, also says he is asking singer Rihanna to be a ring girl at the bout, but acknowledged she’ll likely pass.

Feldman says he has the financial backing of businessman Alki David and that he’ll donate $1 million to a charity that helps abused women if the fight takes place.

The fight, he said, would feature three minute-long rounds with the participants donning oversized gloves and protective head gear.

Feldman is no stranger to publicity. He has put on fights featuring ex-baseball outfielder Jose Canseco, Lindsay Lohan’s dad Michael and Rodney King.

Feldman says he has not received a response from either Drake or Brown.

And while Drake tweeted about his dry cleaning, and Brown about a helpful stewardess, neither made mention of the offer on their Twitter pages.

Meanwhile, police continue their investigation into the bottle-throwing melee allegedly between Drake and Brown and their entourages that took place at the New York City club W.i.P on June 14.

Brown was partying with friends in the VIP section of the South Village club, while the Drake and his friends were nearby, according to statements from reps for both artists.

Brown has said he was a victim in the incident, and Drake’s representatives have said he “did not engage in any activity which resulted in injury.”

The squabble left Brown with a nasty gash on his chin and fueled Internet rumors that it started because of an argument about Rihanna, the sizzling songstress that both men have dated.

Shortly after Drake broke his silence about the Big Apple brawl between his camp and Chris Brown’s, insisting he was on his way out of the NYC nightclub at the time of the incident, Brown released a statement also proclaiming his innocence in the matter.Chris Brown suffered a nasty cut on his chin during what his rep called a “brutal attack” at the club.

Brown, his model girlfriend Karrueche Tran and other friends “sustained several injuries,” Brown rep Jeff Raymond said. “Chris and his party are cooperating with New York authorities who are pursuing this incident further.”

A New York Police spokesman confirmed the department was investigating the incident.

Brown did not name names, but he did post a photo of his injury — which appeared to be a half-inch gash on the left corner of his chin — on his Instagram account.

What happened in the VIP section of the South Village club W.i.P. is unclear.

While Drake was there, his rep denied online reports that it was a clash between members of his entourage and Brown’s crew.

Rihanna on Chris Brown: I’m going to do what I want

“Drake did not participate in any wrongdoing of any kind last night at W.i.P.,” his rep said in a statement to CNN. “He was on his way out of the club when the altercation began. He did not engage in any activity which resulted in injury to person or damage to property.”

Meek Mill, another rapper named in the online reports, also distanced himself from the brawl. While Mill’s rep declined comment to CNN, the artist tweeted “It wasn’t me.”

Brown, in a tweet of his own Thursday afternoon, appeared to support Meek Mill’s claim.

“Me and @MeekMill ain’t on that bulls**t. Real respect Real….”

Brown is on probation for another two years, until 2014, the result of his guilty plea to assaulting Rihanna on the eve of the 2009 Grammy Awards.

CHUCK BROWN DIES: THE GODFATHER OF GO-GO WAS 75

Pulled from the Washington Post By ,

Chuck Brown, the gravelly voiced bandleader who capitalized on funk’s percussive pulse to create go-go, the genre of music that has soundtracked life in black Washington for more than three decades, died May 16 at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. He was 75.The death, from complications from sepsis, was confirmed by his manager, Tom Goldfogle.Mr. Brown had been hospitalized for pneumonia.

Known as the “Godfather of Go-Go,” the performer, singer, guitarist and songwriter developed his commanding brand of funk in the mid-1970s to compete with the dominance of disco.

Like a DJ blending records, Mr. Brown used nonstop percussion to stitch songs together and keep the crowd on the dance floor, resulting in marathon performances that went deep into the night. Mr. Brown said the style got its name because “the music just goes and goes.”

In addition to being go-go’s principal architect, Mr. Brown remained the genre’s most charismatic figure. On stage, his spirited call-and-response routines became a hallmark of the music, reinforcing a sense of community that allowed the scene to thrive. As go-go became a point of pride for black Washingtonians, Mr. Brown became one of the city’s most recognizable figures.

“No single type of music has been more identified with Washington than go-go, and no one has loomed so large within it as Chuck Brown,” former Washington Post pop music critic Richard Harrington wrote in 2001.

Mr. Brown’s creation, however, failed to have the same impact outside of the Beltway. The birth of go-go doubled as the high-water mark of Mr. Brown’s national career. With his group the Soul Searchers, his signature hit “Bustin’ Loose” not only minted the go-go sound, it spent four weeks atop the R&B singles chart in 1978.

“Bustin’ Loose” was “the one record I had so much confidence in,” Mr. Brown told The Post in 2001. “I messed with it for two years, wrote a hundred lines of lyrics and only ended up using two lines. . . . It was the only time in my career that I felt like it’s going to be a hit.”

It was Mr. Brown’s biggest single, but throughout the 1980s “We Need Some Money,” “Go-Go Swing” and “Run Joe” became local anthems, reinforced by radio support and the grueling performance schedule that put Mr. Brown on area stages six nights a week.

While rap music exploded across the country, go-go dominated young black Washington, with groups including Trouble Funk, Rare Essence and Experience Unlimited (also known as E.U.) following in Mr. Brown’s footsteps.

Mr. Brown performed less frequently in his final years but still took the stage regularly. He would often comment on his golden years in rhyme.

“I’m not retired because I’m not tired. I’m still getting hired, and I’m still inspired,” he said in 2006. “As long as I can walk up on that stage, I want to make people happy. I want to make people dance.”

Charles Louis Brown was born in Gaston, N.C., on Aug. 22, 1936. He never knew his father, Albert Louis Moody, a Marine. He took the surname of his mother, Lyla Louise Brown, a housekeeper who raised her several children in poverty.

PLAYING WITH FIRE

The past few weeks have been filled with moments of reflection. It reached a peak this weekend with the news of the passing of Whitney Houston. The 2012 Grammys had some great performances, LL Cool J did a great job as the host, but the undertone of sadness because of Whitney’s death was apparent. She was so beautiful, so talented, so passionate. So many artist’s lives have been ruined by drugs and alcohol. The subject of my blog today is the damage that drugs and alcohol do to not just the addict, but everyone that loves them.

It’s always so interesting to see people smoking in 2012, despite the fact that there is a ton of information which shows that cigarette smoking directly causes lung cancer and other respiratory diseases. Most of those people believe that it won’t happen to them. I even see doctors smoking. That sight is the most puzzling. Day in and day out, these doctors see people dying of lung cancer, but still they continue to smoke. “It won’t happen to me”, they say. When they are gone, it is their loved ones who are left behind to mourn and pay for their careless behaviour. The dead person is at peace. They have no more worries. Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown battled alcohol and drug abuse for nearly two decades. They have a young daughter who is now left without a mother to help her through the difficult teen years. If Bobby Brown does not clean up his act, she might be left an orphan.

I hear many people say that they will try anything at least once, but doing drugs is not bungee jumping or jumping out of a plane. They both offer extreme rushes, but bungee jumping and sky diving are controlled activities. There is no way to control how a person reacts to drugs. It takes just one try to get hooked on crystal meth. Crystal meth is the most addictive drug in the world.  After that first try, users require more and more of the drug to get that feeling again, and maintain it. Meth users have described this feeling as a sudden rush of pleasure lasting for several minutes, followed by a euphoric high that lasts between six and 12 hours, and it is the result of drug causing the brain to release excessive amounts of the chemical dopamine, a neurotransmitter that controls pleasure. All drugs of abuse cause the release of dopamine, even alcohol and nicotine, explains Rawson, “[But] methamphetamine produces the mother of all dopamine releases.”

For example, in lab experiments done on animals, sex causes dopamine levels to jump from 100 to 200 units, and cocaine causes them to spike to 350 units. “[With] methamphetamine you get a release from the base level to about 1,250 units, something that’s about 12 times as much of a release of dopamine as you get from food and sex and other pleasurable activities,” Rawson says. “This really doesn’t occur from any normally rewarding activity. That’s one of the reasons why people, when they take methamphetamine, report having this euphoric [feeling] that’s unlike anything they’ve ever experienced.” Then, when the drug wears off, users experience profound depression and feel the need to keep taking the drug to avoid the crash.

Cocaine, crack and crystal meth ruin so many lives. Families have been shattered due to these drugs. Multi-million dollar businesses have been destroyed by crack and crystal meth. Many people think that it’s only people in the projects or in trailer parks that do meth, but that’s very far from the truth. Highly educated and successful professionals are slaves to these drugs as well. These drugs do not descriminate. Several surgeons do crystal meth and then go into the operating room. It makes them feel like superman and they can stay awake for several hours, doing countless surgeries. God help us all!!! So many of these meth addicted surgeons have gone to jail, lost their licences or both.

Doing drugs is not bungee jumping or jumping out of a plane. Are you playing with fire?
