Lloyd Says He Told Chris Brown To Cry During His BET Awards Performance
Jun 30th
Chris Brown’s performance at the BET Awards shocked fans and #teamrihanna supporters a like…
While many of us were impressed and welcomed him back with open arms,
a lot of people have chosen to remain critical and questioned his true intentions.
Well Lloyd, added some fuel to the fire, he told rap-up.com that he encouraged Chris Brown to cry onstage…
In the interview Lloyd says, he told Chris Brown that he had “to really show his heart out to the world” and cry.
“He’s back with a vengeance….I think that they’re gonna find a place in their heart for him again….I told him man, you gotta get up there. You gotta CRY, you gotta really show your heart to the world.”
Check out the video of Lloyd making the statement….
Well there was a big twitter backlash, folks attacked both Lloyd and Chris Brown, some Rhianna STANS stated Chris was faking his tears, and attacked him via twitter…while other crazy people attacked Lloyd by coining him a hater and an instigator…
some of you twitter junkies, need to be locked up in an insane asylum, i read some of the comments it’s not that serious and what’s up with all the little #teams on twitter LMAO these celebs don’t care about you, nor are they paying ya’ll to attack people verbally.
After all the hoopla
LLoyd took to his blog to “explain” what he meant… In case you care here’s his blog
I consider Chris a friend. He’s been through a lot in the past couple years. I never told him to go on stage and cry. We spoke recently, and I told him as a friend that people hadn’t really seen him be vulnerable about his situation last year [with Rihanna]. I thought he was holding back and needed to let that emotion out. Him crying at the BET Awards was real, I could feel it.” said Lloyd.
“I think he cried about a number of things. About the fact that he thought people would hate him forever because of one mistake. Feeling that love on stage was probably overwhelming. Plus MJ being gone and him performing “Man in the Mirror”, that song is powerful, especially for his situation. It pushed him over the edge.”
Responding to the many blogs and fans that took Lloyd’s comments as a negative statement against Chris Brown, Lloyd offered this response, “To say that he was faking or that I’m hating on him, that’s some bull shit. Last week Essence.com asked me what artist most embodied MJ. I told them it was Chris. I never saw MJ perform live, but he [Chris Brown] is the closest thing I’ve witnessed. Chris is back, and I’m just as excited as his fans are. It’s just frustrating that people want to make everything negative.”
I learned a long time ago people love drama, and will take the smallest thing and run with it,
Lloyd is a good one, cus I wouldn’t have explained ishhh, everyone that came sideways would have been blocked the end! =)
Juvenile Speaks about the oil spill and the violence in New Orleans

New Orleans bred emcee Juvenile recently sat down in an exclusive interview with Hip-Hop Wired to discuss his feelings on the oil spill that surrounds his home state as well as his take on the arrest of the police officers who murdered countless Hurricane Katrina victims during the storm.
In regards to the killings by the police officers, Juve states that he “wasn’t surprised” because the senseless acts of violence by police officers is something that has plagued the New Orleans’ hoods for years.
“I really am not shocked that they got caught,” Juvenile said. “We have been telling people this for years. I am more surprised that people were shocked more than anything because if they had been listening to us back then the people may still be alive today.”
In regards to the state of his hometown, Juve states that one solution to the problem would be to allow the victims of Hurricane Katrina to receive priority job placement in their hometown to create a sense of stability and security.
“No offense to anyone out there, but I feel like the victims of the hurricane need to be the first ones who are considered for jobs, especially in New Orleans.” Juvenile said. “Pretty much after every crisis that has hit Louisiana, they should really be the first to get jobs because they were literally left with nothing and many of them still haven’t recovered almost four years later. Right now the mind state is either you have a job or you’re selling drugs and if you selling drugs then there will be violence.”
In response to the oil spill crisis Juvenile states:
“That oil spill just killed our biggest market, because seafood is our biggest market so the oil spill just put even more people without a job. Basically with one leak the oil spill killed New Orleans, so in my opinion the smartest thing for anyone to do would be to move away, honestly that is what I am looking to do because there will only be so long before the oil starts to affect our water and what can we do then..die and that’s what will happen if we don’t leave.”

Moments ago, an Arizona judge sentenced Lil Wayne to three years probation for his role in a 2008 drug bust at a U.S. Border Patrol checkpoint. Under the deal, Wayne pleaded guilty to one count of possession of a dangerous drug. Wayne — who appeared in court today through a video link from his NY jail — will begin his sentence after he’s released from Rikers Island … where he’s doing time for a gun charge. As we previously reported, Border Patrol agents claimed they found a ton of drugs inside the rapper’s tour bus — including weed, coke and ecstasy.
A “TON” of drugs= probation…must be nice.

Larry King retires from CNN
Jun 30th
Larry King is retiring from his show Larry King Live on CNN after 25 years on air.
King had Bill Maher on the show to help him explain his decision to step down.
After repeating his personal statement to his TV audience, King introduced Maher as an “old friend” who he invited on in light of his decision to retire. After a joke about his stepping in to replace him, King admitted that “this was tough, Bill. It was time, I was ready to do it. CNN folks agreed to it. We sat down, I’ll do specials, more time with the family. And I want to expand– I want to do other things I haven’t been able to do.”
Maher told King that, weird at is may seem given the length of King’s career, he feels “it is too soon” and frets, “I hope you’re doing this of your own volition, and not because of what the media says.” King confirms that, no, there was no pressure from CNN, and that the 25th Anniversary week featuring, among others, Lady Gaga, LeBron James, and Barack Obama made him consider retirement.
I’m gonna miss Larry I watch his show a lot, so I’m wondering who they will get to replace him…
personally I think it should be me…but I digress=)
Good luck Larry you will be missed!
