"Going Ape $hit!" -Bad Travis

I'm pretty sure by now you've heard by now about the near fatal chimpanzee attack on a woman in Stamford, Conn. recently right? Well here's some undiscovered news that surfaced about the incident, that may have lead up to the melee. "Travis" a former child animal celebrity was visibly depressed about his inability to get new gigs in this tough economic times. Especially after being dropped by Old Navy and having a brief cameo in "Evan Almighty" which flopped! Folks close to the owner reveled rumors that one, the woman attacked may have provoked the animal by shouting racial slurs at the out-of-work chimp. Or two, had coincidentally been wearing a perfume made from banana extracts at the time. Another theory floating about was that the chimp just simply didn't like the bitch! One cop at the scene had his to say "Like all 15-yrs he had alot of suppressed anger at the world in general. Especially being once in the limelight. He died way too soon man." Travis was close to signing an endorsement deal with A Bathing Ape before this happened. Sadly now he'll be known as "the 2Pac of the animal kingdom" now. Remember to pour some out for Travis at the next after work party you're going to. A moment of silence please...thank you.

"Frank N' Scents" -Notorious Marketing Done B.I.G.

Boy, they're REALLY going hard trying to promote this Biggie bio that's a about to be release next year. Ralph even jumped on board to give his "fashionistic" input, for a different perspective promotional wise. Only told by Diddy to capture "Frank White's" essence in a fragrance, and the title "Notorious," here's Ralph's thoughts on his approach.

"I originally thought, what would or did the late Mr. Wallace smell like after a four song set under hot lights in a full suit? Or better yet, a night of lustful sex w/his numerous groupies or whats-her-face...that Lil' Kim young lady? Then I heard a line from 2Pac stating that Biggie once slept on his couch at one time or another. And thought of going in that direction for the smell we were seeking. Then it hit me, what was his passions? Money, weed, and good vagina, and BOOM! You have "Notorious" my friend! Come, take a wiff."

Ya see, I'm a fan of Ralph Lauren but ummm...I'll past on this one.

"Ol' School, New School Need to Learn..." Pt.3

There is nothing like a good "city pride" song. Especially when the song is so hot that a whole 'nother coast is claiming the state even in a time of war (West coast V.S. East coast)
Word has it that the song was originally slated to be featuring Dr. Dre and Dr. Dre only. But Suge (Knight) felt 2Pac needed a strong "coming home" single once released from prison. So "California Love" got elected to be his 1st single off his album. What helped in the success of the song no doubtingly was the high-budgeted concept video that accompanied the song. Directed by Hype Williams, the video starring Chris Tucker (Friday) George Clinton, and Roger Troutman (who sings the hook) was a play on the Mad Max movies theme that featured a younger Mel Gibson. The song sampled for the hit was "Woman to Woman" by Joe Crocker. In which he croons that he "gets around", way before the late 2Pac did.
