Where Was Jay Z When This Happened?

Beanie Sigel's car was side swiped by a mack truck over the weekend. His rumored health status has run the gambit from seriously injured to escaping without a scratch. Considering he performed at a concert the very next day, I'm going to assume Beans is O.K..

Lil Wayne Detained Last Night

You know the drill. Lil Wayne's tour bus was pulled over in Texas near the Mexico border last night and the cops found weed. How many times is this going to happen before Wayne hires a nondescript car to trail the buses and carry the weed? I'm just saying.

When A Woman's Fed Up

If this screen capture from the Harris County District Court website is to be believed Tina Knowles filed for divorce from Mathew Knowles on November 11, 2009. I guess that baby on the way was a bit to much for Mama Tina to bear [click here if you missed that].
