Why Nelly And KRS-One Rap Beef Happened


In 2002, Nelly was one of hip-hop's biggest stars. His 2000 breakout debut, Country Grammar, sold nine million records.

Old school boom-bap rap pioneer, KRS-One, who had earned a reputation not just for his community-conscious lyrics but for never shying away from a lyrical showdown, called Nelly out.

KRS— who by that time had already proclaimed himself to be a keeper of classic hip-hop— voiced his discontent with Nelly on the track "Clear Em Out" from the compilation The Difference.


The song was aimed at pop-rap, and given his success as hip-hop's reigning top-seller at the time. Nelly took offense. He'd just dropped the track "#1" from the Training Day soundtrack, where he was defending his right to reign on top of the charts.

"He had to defend himself. He's like, 'My career probably wouldn't be here if it wasn't for KRS-One,' that's what Nelly is on. My man got tired of critics and made a song '#1.' He wasn't specifically talking about nobody, but if the shoe fits, wear it."

KRS claimed he even sent an email to Nelly's camp, explaining there was no beef and he wasn't interested in getting into it with the St. Louis star. Nelly didn't get the memo, however, and in response, recorded a verse on the Freeway's "Roc the Mic" remix, on which he called out the veteran rhymer, letter by letter.


KRS responded by calling for an actual boycott of Nelly's album, Nellyville, which was scheduled to drop that June 2002, dramatically declaring himself a "sovereign power" in the process. Nelly challenged a sovereign power.

Needless to say, the whole boycott thing didn't exactly pan out the way KRS had hoped. June 25, 2002, rolled around, Nelly dropped Nellyville, and the entire world danced to the album's monster hit, "Hot in Herre." Nellyville ended up selling over 6 million albums and it stands as the 14th best-selling rap album of all time.

Believe In Yourself

(The Wrap-Up Magazine) At times, it can be hard for you to believe in yourself, especially if you have developed negative feelings, like you have nothing. Self-doubt doesn't have to be as monstrous as we make it out to be. It's all about perspective. You're doing just fine. But here's the catch: The critics in your head won't let you believe it.

Do you tend to doubt yourself rather than believe in yourself? Are you always questioning your worth and downplaying your abilities? There was a long time when the lack of belief in myself was a major factor in my life. I didn’t pursue an ideal career, or start my own, but now i'm ready. There may be days when you get up in the morning and things aren't the way you had hoped, but its okay.

Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there. To serve some sort of purpose. If you don't believe in yourself, then it doesn't matter how talented you are or how big your dreams are.

Jennifer Lopez Talks Being Stereotyped at Auditions and More


From a veteran stripper in "Hustlers" to an international Tejano superstar in "Selena," Jennifer Lopez has played an array of personas on the big screen. 


But that wasn't always the case. 


The star, 51, revealed during Variety's Power of Women Conversations by Lifetime Wednesday that she was typecast as "the maid, the dishwasher" earlier in her career.


"I was like, 'I don't want to do that,' " Lopez explained. "I had to kind of break out of that and convince somebody to put me in the first romantic comedy, which I think was 'The Wedding Planner.' (Director) Adam Shankman put me in that movie.'"

Is Rikers Island Doing Purges?

Word is that Rikers Island Correctional Institute is doing big things in the wrong way! Knife fights and ugly brawls between inmates, even attacks on officers, often end up airbrushed in the records as routine “log book entries.” The main culprit, critics say, is Security Chief Turhan Gumusdere, a man who has faced scandal in the past for distorting data in the jails by deleting hundreds of fights among inmates from the records when he was a deputy warden.

They also have questions, they say, about Correction Commissioner Joseph Ponte, a touted reformer who nonetheless promoted Gumusdere into his job, even after the jail investigator recommended he be demoted. While vowing to alter the culture of violence, Ponte has done nothing to address flaws in the record-keeping process, either exerting pressure or looking the other way, all to placate City Hall.

Now the City Council, citing computations that don’t add up, is demanding answers, starting with Elizabeth Crowley, who heads the committee overseeing the jails. She is calling on city Controller Scott Stringer to run an audit of the records.

This is not the first time jail brass, particularly Gumusdere, have come under fire for juking figures. The Correction Department's internal Investigation Division found in 2011 that Gumusdere, while running a Rikers facility for troubled teens, “abdicated all responsibility” in documenting incidents. A department investigator recommended he be demoted.

In reviewing 11 specific cases, The News found nine downgrades. But according to several jails bosses, this number represents just a fraction of the cases that are skewed. Incidents are often not logged at all, with Gumusdere telling supervisors to “make it go away.”

Correction officers labeled the incidents as “slashings” only to see them later downgraded. That catch-all category, a holdover from precomputer times, is not included in data on violence.

How Jennifer Lopez scored the role of Selena

 


The former In Living Color Fly Girl beat out thousands of other young hopefuls when she was cast as slain Latinx singer Selena Quintanilla-PĂ©rez in the 1997 biopic, Selena, which premiered in theaters a quarter-century ago on March 21, 1997.
