RICK ROSS ADMITS HE WAS A CORRECTIONAL OFFICER !!! WTF !!!
In the recent issue of Don Diva Ricky decided to STF (Stop The Fuckery) and come clean about his past. “Yes, it’s me,” Ross tells Don Diva. “I never tried to hide my past. I put my name inside my CDs. My company has my [Social Security number]. I could’ve put a company name…I done been up and I done been down and that’s what makes me what I am. I never ratted on a nigga. I never prosecuted a nigga. I never locked up a nigga, that’s first and foremost. I always felt that me being the nigga that I am, I never owed a nigga an explanation. When I’m making my music and I’m talking about blow, it’s because I did it. When I say that I’m rich off cocaine, it’s because I did it. Those are the street principals that apply.”

4th QUARTER SUCCESS?
HIP HOP AND RnB ARE COMING INTO THE 4TH QUARTER
The question now is can Hip Hop and RnB ride the wave of the already high third quarter sales into the fourth quarter and end the year off on the right note?
After a third quarter which saw the successes of the "Carter III" breaking a million in its first week of sales, the wonder lies if T.I.'s highly anticipated "Paper Trail" will continue on a similar path. Coming off the popularity of the " trickin' " craze, T.I.'s third single featuring Rihanna, "Live Your Life" hopes to continue the success of the second release "You could have whatever you like" which spent two weeks at number one on the Billboard charts.
Release Date - September 30th, 2008. Also includes Swing Your Rag ft Swiss beats, & What's Up, What's Happenin'.
With collaborations between artist set to do quite well in the thrid quarter and other artist said to drop before the year's end, we can expect a winter of number one hits. The much played and much loved "Put On" brings Kanye "Autotune" West to the world, and like it or not, his upcoming album "808's and Heartbreaks," dated for release December 16th, will include its share of autotune and special FX's like those heard on the MTV World Premiered single "Love Lockdown"
SHOOTING LIKE KOBE BRYANT!
On September 2nd Young Jeezy released his third major studio album, "Recession" and has extended the summer heat into early fall. With anthem's like "Put On,"featuring Kanye West, and "Amazing", both produced by Drumma Boy, this album sets the bar high for the other artist. "Recession"also includes the mixtape hit "Circulate" and the smash second single, already posted on streetsizwatchin.blogspot.com, "Vacation." Young Jeezy's "Recession" debuted at number 1 on the Billboard charts and sold over 260,000 copies in its first week of sales.

With less FX's expect Kanye's attitude to be in full effect. With pressures and stresses of daily life building up, Kanye may need the extra sales to keep the courts quiet. Honestly, these rappers have an image to keep up, and its just unfortunate that the paparazzi had to find out the hard way about Mr. West's hard side. But like they say, the only bad publicity is no publicity!
But after teaching the less swaggered how to enter a room, Kayne West led the charge on the undoubted monster hit of late August. This track comes from T.I.'s album Paper Trail, including Kanye West, Lil Wayne, and Jay-z, whom has also listed the track on his album, "Blueprtint 3". This competitve combat of punch lines and lyrical metaphors, unseen lately in Hip Hop, has given a few fresh breaths to the once pronounced deceased.
The third quarter has seen the release of albums, although still good, not quite good enough. This includes LL Cool J's "Exit 13," Kardinal Offishall's "Not for Sale", The Game's L.A.X. (which does have its gems here and there) and the return of Nelly with "Brass Knuckles" but we can only hope that the emergence of the 4th quarter won't result in funeral arrangements.
BE ON THE LOOK OUT:
As we look ahead towards the end of 08 and the beginning of 09, streetsizwatchin.blogspot.com asks you to keep on the look out for Jay-Z's "Blueprint 3." The son of the summer has recently changed his formation and has released his last two albums, "Kingdom Come" and the come back album and blockbuster movie hit, "American Gangsta." This time around we can expect Jigga, with hits like Jockin' Jay-Z""and the afore mentioned "Swagga Like Us." Also set to release are new albums from Mr. Controversial, 50 Cent with "Before I Self Destruct" and Beyonce's new album set to drop on November 18th with the first two singles "If I were a boy" and "Single Ladies" set to release on the same date, October 17th. With no title yet, all thats known is that she not only co-wrote but also co-produced the entire album.
Which album are you most anticipating?
Post comments and let me know if I missed anyone, or if any of our less anticipated albums should've received more shine.

DMX ORDERED TO STAY IN JAIL
DMX was ordered by a Miami judge to stay in jail for at least another month until his next court date and here is the footage of his reaction.
YUNG BERG BEATEN AND ROBBED
Chicago rapper Yung Berg was recently beaten and robbed for his infamous Transformer pendant at Plan B club in Detroit. The club is partially owned by Detroit rapper Trick Trick. Recent reports were that Trick Trick was involved in the scuffle but Trick Trick recently cleared that up in an interview with AHH.
“First of all I ain’t no jack n***a . I don’t need to jack nann n***a to get what I gotta get,”, “Karma’s a motherf**ker so I’m not taking no n***a’s s**t. I earn mine. I don’t need that piece of s**t ass aluminum foil chain the b**ch had on no way.” Trick also said that members of his entourage were involved and that Yung Berg brought it on himself by running his mouth, and he also claims to have broken up the fight after seeing Berg getting stomped on. Below is a picture of the person supposedly claiming to have taken Berg's chain.
"IT AIN'T TRICKIN IF YOU GOT IT"
Recently there has been an epidemic which has plagued the “game” of modern or popular “culture.” This infection is spreading like wildfire and the most recognizable and most notable entertainment icons have seemingly become the primary target. As the days go by we see more and more of today’s rapper’s and singer’s expressing their courtship by meshing the aged old proverb with the rhythmic and classic melody of heavy 808 drums over orchestra typed keys, really making it seem like a rising trend amongst the famous.
Now my purpose for addressing this is in no way related to hatin’ on some ballin "lookin boys", but more so from the REAL point of view. It's possible you just ain’t affected by blowing a few thousand, especially if you made 30 thou from last night’s show, and another 30 coming from tonight’s show, it may not be more than a miscellaneous expense; but for those half way hustlers, that hit the strip club and toss half of their days profits and end up losing a lot more just tryna keep up with the Jones’. And this is where the issue gets serious. We are seeing the trend leak from upstream amongst today’s stars, to the local go getter’s, and gradually becoming an expectation and/or way of life, the whole time thinking they got it so it ain’t a problem.
On that REAL S**T though, stealing a loaf of bread is still stealing; losing by one or losing by 20 is still simply losing; thus trickin’ is still trickin’ whether you got it or not.
To the women who benefit… simply put, “Get it how you live!”
To the women whose men just put a female through college, my advice is double-check the books and get the amount because tuition is a taxable credit. Straight up!
But lastly to the artist involved, I’d like to stake my claim on this issue by making my allegiance with Neyo’s campaign for a Miss Independent. Cuz fun as it is to shower ladies with dollar bills, it’s always more fun doubling my stacks, and a shorty who gets her business done is always more attractive and much more appeasing.

STF vol.1
For a while now we as the hip hop culture have been putting up with a lot of FUCKERY and letting artists and industry people get away with a lot of things we wouldn't normally, due to their celebrity status. Time for change has come and here at STREETSIZWATCHIN we will be putting them on blast. situations like Weezy kissing Baby have been totally disregarded due to the fact that they are celebrities and there are a lot more situations that have gone on and been swept under the rug.
For our first installment in the STF we are going to put Rick Ross the BOSS/ex CO on blast. Rick Ross was accused of being a corrections officer a few months ago, when pictures of him surfaced dressed as a co in his younger days and he denied the claims in songs and video interviews. TSG then dug deeper into the situation and matched his social security number with that of William Leonard Roberts which is his real name and the name of the corrections officer that was employed by the Florida department of corrections. to see more of the evidence: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2008/0728081rickross1.html
Now the reason we are putting Rick Ross on blast is not because he had a job that is a great thing, and not because it was a job as a CO but, because he lied. Ross could have told us the truth and said yes, I was a CO in the past and that would not have taken away from the fact that he was this big time dealer he claims to have been, or from the fact he is a great rapper. For all we know that is where he made his connect that could be why "the real Noriega owes him a hundred favours" but no Ricky u lied to your fans and you are supposed to be TRILLA. We all know that CO's are responsible for a lot of the drugs getting into the jails and even if he didn't sell drugs then he could have started after. Rappers need to let their fans know they are real people too and STOP THE FUCKERY!
