Viga got the Blues

Dear Mirror:
Thank you for showing me the clear picture of my worth.  For a minute I was feeling down; it seemed everybody else in my profession was getting their props; me, I was feeling slept on by my so called supporters.

My name was being left out and my work was being over looked by the very ones who should have been focusing on what I have been consistently doing.  Then it occurred to me, why am I worried about what people think? My body of work along with my grind and the grace of God will outlast these bandwagon people who jock because of what they lack and diss because of what you have.

I will continue to display positive, I will prevail because when you are in the moment you realize its a marathon and not a sprint.   Your pace will keep you through the peaks and valleys.  When you cross that line raise your hands up to God and please know there's no other way to get there but through him.  So man down. Spirit up.

Thank you mirror for listening, how much do I owe you! #keepsleepingonme

Never Forget Where You Came From!

The set up begins when someone makes it out and gain wealth and fame,but forget the other people who struggled with them and for some strange reason they think that bragging about their possession without laying a foundation for others to follow is cool,and most people take joy in drowning as long as they can see the yacht,F@#k That!!! My thinking is - Negro you can at least throw a brotha a life preserver? The lesson here is never hate people success but make sure you are in a position to swim around the Bull-shit and your day will come,just make sure it's a cruise ship so other people can enjoy it too!

Sticky Icky Situation:Lil Scrappy Fails Urine Test, Says He’s Addicted to Marijuana

A lot of young brothers like talking about smoking weed as if it’s a good habit. But they don’t always think about how drug addictions can kill you or get you sent to prison.  Lil Scrappy might end up being locked up again after not being able to walk away from weed.  The judge has sent him to rehab to deal with his addiction after he failed a court ordered drug test.
This was after Scrappy was on the run for refusing to take a urine test.  He was apparently using fake urine samples, and when they asked him for another one, he just walked out.  You can’t do that.
Scrappy appeared in a Georgia courtroom moments ago, where officials revealed a urine test Scrappy took last week came back positive for marijuana.
TMZ spoke with Scrappy’s lawyer, Mawuli Mel Davis, who tells us … the rapper will check into a rehab facility before the next court hearing in June.

Davis also tells us … Scrappy acknowledges he’s addicted to smoking marijuana.
We broke the story … Scrappy was recently jailed for violating his probation back in March after a dispute over a different pee test. According to court officials, Scrappy tried to turn in a urine sample that was cold to the touch and may have been tampered with … and when asked to submit another cup, he refused.

Dr. Boyce Watkins and Vigalantee breaks down Kanye new song "New Slaves"

Can Hip-Hop get back to consciousness???????

Kanye is stepping up with"New Slave" Look like the Movement i've been fighting for is taking place!

Rapper Kanye West is always eager to grab attention in the most elaborate way possible. Now he's debuting a new song in the form of videos simultaneously displayed on the exterior walls of more than five dozen buildings — just in time for his May 18 performance gig on Saturday Night Live.

West recently turned Twitter into a guessing game when he posted a cryptic tweet: "June Eighteen," he wrote. The date could refer to the day his and pregnant Kim Kardashian's baby is due, or possibly the day West releases a new album.
If West does drop a new album on June 18, it would be his first solo album since 2010's critically acclaimed My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.

Just What The Community needs(yeah right) Rick Ross & Birdman Releasing Joint Album

Did you know, or care, that back in 2008 Rick Ross and Birdman created a gang of songs that haven't seen the light of day? The MMG and YMCMB honchos have announced that they will be dropping the first volume of said work, titled The H: The Lost Album, Vol. 1, on May 23.

DJ Khaled will serve as the album/mixtape's host. Derick G caught up with the two rappers on the set of the "Started From The Bottom" video shoot in Miami, where they offered a few details of the album's creation.

"This is a project me and Stunna did maybe in three days," recalls Rozay. The Cash Money honcho then added, "We probably did 40 songs in less than 10 days."

What The Hell??? Hugh Hefner Drops $5 Mil On Mansion For 27-Year-Old Wife

Hugh Hefner really loves his 27-year-old Playmate wife Crystal Harris ... we're told he's created an intricate plan to set her up in a multi-million dollar estate, where no one in his world can displace her once he dies ... but there is one hitch.

Hef plunked down $5 million last month for a 5,900-square-foot Hollywood Hills mansion, which is held in trust for the 2 of them.  Short story -- Crystal owns the house with him.

Playboy sources tell us ... the couple is happily living at the Playboy Mansion, and they have no plans to move.  So why, you ask, did they buy the Hollywood Hills home?  Fact is ... Hef is a renter!  He doesn't own the Playboy Mansion ... it's owned by Playboy Enterprises.

We're told the 87-year-old perennial player wants to make sure Crystal has a roof over her head when he's gone, and the Hollywood Hills estate fits the bill.

As for the one hitch -- it's if they get unhitched.  Then Hef will either give her the house, buy her out, or fight it out in court.

After Bumping That Head On a Pole, Kanye let some of his issue be known.....lol

Last night (May 15), Kanye West revealed two new, unreleased songs at an invite-only show in Manhattan, New York's Roseland Ballroom. The hour-plus set, part of Adult Swim's Upfront party, featured West inside of a three dimmensional pyramid-shaped screen, dressed in all white, going through songs from his entire career.
The new and unreleased songs he revealed were the talk of the night. One is presumed to be titled "Awesome" or "So Awesome" and is said to be dedicated to Kim Kardashian. The other, is said to be titled "Yeezy Season," and it was only revealed in snippet form. No official confirmation on either title has been made.
On the track many have called "So Awesome," Kanye West asks, "Why would you ever listen to the people trying to hate on you?" According to Rolling Stone, he then adds, "Baby, you're awesome. Don't let nobody bring you down. You're so awesome." He continues, adding "I'd rather do nothing with you than something with somebody new." The song also features West talking about himself, saying, "I'm also awesome." Video footage of the performance can be found below, courtesy of Erika Ramirez for Billboard.

What A Freakin Role Model??? Chief Keef Flaunts His Codeine Addiction

Whatever you call the combination of promethazine and codeine laced prescription cough syrup--Lean, Drank, Purple Sprite--and a soft drink of choice, it's use as a recreational drug has long been rampant. Whether you admit to it or not, it can be  easily be abused. One rapper in particular who's been boasting about his bad habit of sipping on that lean is Chief Keef.

Lately, the Chicago rapper has been showing images of promethazine bottles and the ubiquitous styrofoam cups that drank users prefer on his Instagram. We got a feeling that Keef doesn't have a particularly bad cough, though.

Although Lil Wayne contends that he suffers from epilepsy, many attribute his recent extended hospital stay to abuse of "Texas tea." Soulja Boy, who makes a cameo on Sosa's Instagram feed with a cup in hand, was recently spotted sharing many images of his heavy drank sipping as well. It looks like Keef went extra hood and occasionally sips it out of a baby bottle. Make sure your baby daughter KayKay who you're shelling out that child support dough for stays away from those, buddy.

No matter your stance on grown men doing what they want to do, Keef is just 17-years-old with a gang of fans and followers that live to mimic his every move. That can be a dangerous thing.

Vigalantee Warns pepsi-co to follow up and do the right thing!

In case you haven’t heard, Mountain Dew and Pepsico have severed ties with the artist Lil Wayne.  The decision occurred after an article on Your Black World called out a video that was deemed racist and stereotypical toward African Americans.  After the ad was cut from the airwaves, there were additional calls to support the family of Emmett Till, who was upset about a verse in which Lil Wayne compared Emmett Till’s face to a woman’s s-x organs.

PepsiCo released a statement saying that “offensive reference to a revered civil rights icon does not reflect the values of our brand.”
The company refused to comment on other promotions that it has involving Lil Wayne.  The incident is considered by some to be a watershed moment in the touchy relationship between the black community and corporate-funded hip-hop music heard on stations throughout the country.
“Good, conscientious artists can’t get on the radio, but you can hear the same Lil Wayne song three times,” said Yvette Carnell, a writer for Your Black World.
Carnell says that this incident is powerful for the black community because it didn’t involve help from a white organization.
“People are accustomed to black people not doing anything for themselves on this issue,” said Carnell.  ”Also, major civil rights groups are afraid to really stand up to corporations like Mountain Dew because they’re taking money from them.”
Lil Wayne’s publicist, Sarah Cunningham, said that the split with Mountain Dew was amicable and due to “creative differences.”
“That’s about all I can tell you at this time,” she said.

Vigalantee's Spazz Sessions

Spazz session 1:Why is it when you do something positive to try and get support, people act deaf, blind and dumb? The answer is because they know if they contribute you just might make it, and crabs and dream killers don't want anyone thinking they are getting soft, so they keep going!

Spazz session 2:Why is it when you ask people to support you, you got to be mad or struggling? The answer is: could it be a negro is just doing inventory and he decided to see who follows, the fb likes, who's faking, and shooting you bull ish? besides the greatest way to expose uncover haters is to pull the covers off. That " keep it to yourself" is for cowards who are scared to face their opposition. Never that I'm spazzing and creating at the same time, besides I still got my day Job...lol B.O.B.S (business ova bull ish)

Spazz Session 3:The first thing I've learn is just because people don't acknowledge you doesn't mean they don't see you or admire you; but their ego refuses to display it in public because of their own insecurities and that suits me just fine. Just remember to bring a tie because i have the shoes you can't walk in! B.O.B.S (business ova bull ish)

Spazz Session 4:Now if a brotha start kickin that bull ish,then everybody will be disappointed and say "i knew he wasn't who he claim to be" It's funny that way; people expect so much more but they are not willing to lift a hand to keep people uplifted, but they will tear a brotha down with 100% effort and focus towards the mission of seeing you fail.To many people play the sidelines looking for a train wreck,that's why i drive my own car to the show,because timing is everything along with safety. I'm buckled up and ready for impact!

Spazz Session 5:If you swing that bull my way this season you will get dropped. I bit my tongue last year, but this year it's B.O.B.S(business ova bull ish) and i will address you like I'm your Mailman! Here's a certified warning that needs your signature! SPAZZ SESSIONS DONE! PEACE.
