G-Unit’s most out spoken member, Young Buck is broke his
silence about the incident involving Tony Yayo and Jimmy Henchmen’s
14-year-old son. Yayo is accused of assaulting the minor. “I’m gonna
be honest, I don’t respect nobody who puts their hands on no kids. I have a
child myself. If someone puts their hands on mine, I understand the way it
goes. So in this situation, honestly, I don’t know the truth of it, but I don’t
rock with nothing that’s under that circumstance — putting your hands on a kid.
It wouldn’t matter if it was my crew or any other crew,” he told Hot 97
personality Angie Martinez.
Almost two weeks after the
indictment of three New York Police Department officers in the shooting death
of 23-year-old Sean Bell, new information has surfaced about Bell ’s
alleged violent past. In a story published by the New York Daily News, a
26-year-old man arrested on drug charges says that he was shot by bell in July
of 2006. According to the NYPD, the story is credible. Police also don’t rule
out the idea that the man could have falsely identified Bell in an attempt to
escape charges. Bell had a prior arrest for drug charges, but Sanford
Rubenstein, the attorney representing Bell’s fiancé, Nicole
Paultre-Bell says the new allegations have nothing to do with Bell’s death
at the hands of the NYPD. “We expected them to throw dirt at us and they are
throwing dirt at us,” he says. “What relevance does it have to
what happened that night?” he said. “None. Does that justify
what happened? Absolutely not.
Remember when sneakers were
affordable? NBA player Stephon Marbury, the front man for a more affordable
line of basket ball apparel called Starbury has a new endorser. Chicago
Bulls player Ben Wallace will sport a pair of Starbury’s this
Thursday when the Bulls play his old team, the Detroit Pistons. In
addition to endorsing the line, Wallace is also set to debut his own basketball
shoe, Big Ben this fall. The Starbury line does not pay Wallace
or Marbury, but the two receive royalties from sales. “Once
parents and their kids begin to see that other pro athletes are getting down
with this, then it just makes a world of difference,” Marbury said in
a phone interview with the Detroit Free Press. “It’s not just one
person doing it. Other people are wearing the shoes. Other people are putting
their feet inside of shoes that they’re saying are cheap.”
