"good kid m.A.A.d. city" does not come without scrutiny, as many still wonder how Lamar won "Lyricist of the Year at the BET Hip-Hop Awards."

Soo I'm sure the story that's being told here is all too familiar to many. These two rappers obviously shared the same pain at the time, and they found a clever way to express themselves on the issue. Yes what we have here is another dosage of pure hip-hop, two artist being able to lead their audience on an emotional roller coaster while their vocals blend with the melody.
Beanie takes the lead on this track, talking to his biological father directly and telling him how he was directly affected in his absence. As always Beanie gives his true emotions on the track, which sounded like more anger then disappointment. He shares incidents of embarrassment while he watched his mother struggle to provide for he and his siblings. To witness domestic abuse only seems to hardened his heart and severe the connection between Beanie and his father.
Jay-Z then immediately follows up with his version of abandonment. While he too is angered and upset, he expresses his feelings a little different. Jigga starts off his story with admiration, indicating that he is truly disappointed that his father could not be present full time. The lack of finances seemed to light a fire in Jigga as he rose to the head of the house hold. Jigga ends his tale with a proud projection of perseverance. Listen to the track below.
As truthful as it may have been, the song received some negative attention. From the direction taken on part two, it would appear that the public felt that both artists were too harsh in their delivery. To clear the air Jay and Beanie collaborated again, to speak to their fathers about the damaged relationships. This time, there was an attempt to show some love and appreciation for just having a father period. The anger and disappointment still seeps through the song, showing that resentment will always linger at the core. Only this time they indicate that a repair on the relationship is possible. Listen to part two below.
In conclusion, we felt that both testimonies were good for the public ears. Many can relate and identify with the same pain. We can only hope that all in these positions, would chose a better a path should too chose to start a family. The ironic thing here is that, these two men shared a painful bond and was able to put their minds together to tell a compelling story. How is that now these two Jay-Z and Beanie Sigel have no relationship??

Soo on this journey back in musical time, we had to to give some attention to an artist who gave hip-hop a contrubution in his own way. Flavor Flav was known as the ultimate hype man during the 90s, bringing much energy alongside the infamous Chuck D for the group Public Enemy.
To no suprise Flavor was able to produce his own sound and style, that presented humor and education.

Soo if this large lump sum is not granted to professional gambler Phil Ivey, he just may have a permanent poker face. The Las Vegas Review Journal reports that Crockfords, a casino in London Mayfair is withholding $11.7 million payout that Ivey earned in August. This time Ivey was not playing poker, but a game that is filled with more chance titled Punto Banco.
Punto Banco is a variation of Baccarat
Reports have it that Ivey sat down with $1.6 million U.S dollars and began to take a lost. Somewhere over the next 2 nights Ivey and a female companion went on an apparent unbelievable hot streak. They played for a total of 7 hours and profited $11.7 million in winnings. Ivey asked that the money be deposited in his account but only his original $1.6 million was returned.
Investigators have flown to London to interview employees and check hours or surveillance video. Suspicion aroused when it was notified that Ivey's companion recently had her membership revoked at another casino. Sounds like the casino feels that Ivey and his companion scammed the deal(lol). Problem being, that tapes show that Ivey and his lady friend never touched the cards. So it is still unclear what the casino is accusing Ivey of. Lawyers defending Ivey find themselves in an heated standoff with the casino, as its evident that life is a gamble..
