Video: Beyond Chris Brown & Rihanna
*Late Pass*
Jay Smooth sits down with Elizabeth Mendez Berry, author of the Vibe magazine feature “Love Hurts” about domestic violence in Hip-Hop.
Please note: After this was filmed, Elizabeth contacted Jay to correct a statistic that she quoted during the interview:
“Intimate partner violence is the leading cause of death for
African-American women ages 15 to 45 and the seventh leading cause of premature death for U.S. women overall.” SOURCE: National Institute of Justice (division of the Bureau of Justice), http:// www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles1/jr000250e.pdf

it still can…budden needs to make a vid for it and get his ish together
========================================
It was a doomed choice as a single from the jump, made more for publicity then anything. You think Jayceon is gonna show up to a low budget Joe Budden vid? That song has “touched & gone” to borrow a phrase. Next.

February 16th, 2009 at 9:38 pm
also this elizabeth bitch (and i say bitch because she angers me) has sidestepped the question abotu women hitting men, and then they wanna be equal and not get hit back.
dont get me wrong, hitting women is wrong, i dont condone it, but if a woman is going around smacking men up, knowing that because society teaches men they cant hit back, happy in the knowledge they wont hit back, then I dont think anyone should be surprised when one dude she starts on finally CBs her monkey ass.
also, why is presuming that all men are 6′4 too, how many people ont hsi forum are are OVER 6ft? not too many i dont think, so what if the man was also 5′4? that bitch made no sense.
rant over.
February 16th, 2009 at 9:38 pm
Ty that dude Joe owe you some bread for real, you sell dude better than Tahiri. (joke shots)
February 16th, 2009 at 9:38 pm
I wish I could say I can’t wait to play certain joints in the whip. But truth is I take no pleasure in playing tunes in the whip, due to my whip game not being proper at this time.
If you aint banging beats out the Range… it just doesnt seem right.
