2. Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson, $216 million

Received nine figures for Vitaminwater stake in 2007; spent freely on cars, renovations to mansion formerly owned by Mike Tyson. Cushion remains from catalog, acting gigs and 50 Cent-themed videogames, books, clothes and headphones. Future billionaire? Told Forbes in 2008: "It's probably going to take me 10 years."

3. Sean "Diddy" Combs, $158 million

Artist formerly known as Puff Daddy built fortune chiefly through clothing line Sean John, record label Bad Boy and Ciroc vodka. Acting gigs, television shows and guest appearances add to coffers. Told Forbes in 1999: "I'm gonna be bigger than David Geffen." Not there yet.

4. Kanye West, $100 million

The self-proclaimed Louis Vuitton Don has pulled in tens of millions from both producing and rapping. Followed solo masterpiece My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy with Jay-Z collaboration Watch the Throne, stands to fatten pockets on tour with Hova.    

5. Timothy "Timbaland" Mosley, $81 million

Virginia-based superproducer has penned beats for every rapper on this list as well as pop acts including Madonna, Mariah Carey, the Jonas Brothers and Duran Duran. Solid success as a solo artist with Shock Value trilogy adds to coffers.

6. Andre "Dr. Dre" Young, $80 million

Superproducer/rapper helped launch careers of Snoop Dogg, Eminem, 50 Cent. Expanded wealth with Aftermath record label, Beats headphones and HP laptop line. Likens himself to world's first billionaire: "Young black Rockefeller ... gettin' money like a bank teller."

7. Pharrell Williams, $76 million

Versatile star made his name penning hits for rappers and pop artists alike as part of popular production duo The Neptunes; now fronts funk-rock band N*E*R*D. Once named the world's best-dressed man by Esquire, Williams designs sunglasses for Louis Vuitton and launched apparel lines Ice Cream and Billionaire Boys Club.

8. Calvin "Snoop Dogg" Broadus, $73 million

Lanky rapper parlayed pimpish image into mainstream fame; once the embodiment of West Coast gangster rap, he revealed a softer side in his reality-TV show Father Hood and variety show Dogg After Dark. Added to acting résumé by playing himself in Sacha Baron Cohen flick Bruno and soap opera One Life to Live.

9. Christopher "Ludacris" Bridges, $68 million

Self-proclaimed "Mouth of the South" has sold over 20 million albums, won three Grammy awards and appeared in two Oscar-winning films. He’s also inked endorsement deals with Tag body spray and Trojan Magnum condoms in addition to touring and releasing new albums. Latest venture: A deal with spirits producer Birkedal Hartmann to create a cognac called Conjure.

10. Dwayne "Lil Wayne" Carter, $66 million (tie)

Lyricist reportedly wrote his first song at age 8 and signed a record deal with Cash Money Records a year later. His 2010 album I Am Not A Human Beingmade him the first artist since Tupac Shakur to have a No. 1 album while incarcerated. Now free, he’s making up for lost time with a lucrative tour.

10. Marshall "Eminem" Mathers, $66 million (tie)

Controversial rhymester has sold over 32 million records since 2000, more than The Beatles (30 million)--or any other artist. But he’s still a relative pauper compared to peers due to lack of outside business ventures and touring.

10. Aliuane "Akon" Thiam, $66 million (tie)

Senegalese-American hip-hop singer/songwriter/producer profits range of business ventures including Konvict Clothing, ads for Pepsi and Kon Live, his Interscope-backed imprint that launched Lady Gaga and others.

Where's Birdman?

Bryan "Birdman" Williams earned more than enough over the past five years to rank among the top 10, but we didn't estimate his earnings for Cash Kings lists until 2011 because we deemed him more executive than rapper (he was included this year because most of his peers now have a similar job description).

Methodology

Our estimates chart pretax earnings for all living artists whose work is primarily classified as hip-hop or rap. The estimates also include income from record sales, digital downloads, films, merchandise sales, endorsements, books and other ventures; management, agent and attorney fees are not deducted. Earnings are calculated every year and based on data from Pollstar, Nielsen SoundScan, the RIAA and individual record labels, as well as interviews with numerous lawyers, media buyers, managers and many of the artists themselves.

Fake Doctor Injects Cement,Super Glue, Mineral Oil & Fix-A-Flat Into Patient's Butt

 "Dr. Oneal Morris has a very literal solution for patients looking to add a little junk to their trunks. She literally injected a woman looking to add a little more oomph to her caboose with a solution made up of cement, super glue, mineral oil, and Fix-A-Flat tire mender. Thirty-year-old Morris was arrested today by Miami Gardens Police.


A patient asked Morris, a transgendered woman who is still legally identified as a man, to give her butt implants, according to NBC Miami. So Morris cut her open and injected the crazy mixture. She then closed the patient's wound with super glue. (These kinds of back-alley plastic surgery procedures are not terribly uncommon in South Florida.)


Needless to say, as a result of the procedure the woman ended up in the hospital being treated for a serious condition by actual doctors.




​Morris has now been arrested on charges of practicing medicine without a license, and from her arrest pictures appears to sport some sort of junk in her own rear-end as well.


Police believe that other victims may exist but are too afraid to come forward. Anyone with information is asked to call Miami Gardens Police at 305-474-1420."

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Sells 6.5 Million Copies In 24 Hours In NA/UK Alone

 Press Release:

Call of Duty(R): Modern Warfare(R) 3 Sets All-Time Record for the Biggest Entertainment Launch with More than $400 Million in North America and United Kingdom Sales Alone More Than 6.5 Million Units Sold in U.S. and U.K. in 24 Hours SANTA MONICA, Calif., Nov. 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Shattering its own day-one sales records, Activision Publishing, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Activision Blizzard (Nasdaq: ATVI), announced that its highly-anticipated Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® 3 has become the biggest entertainment launch ever with an estimated sell-through of more than $400 million and more than 6.5 million units in North America and the United Kingdom alone in the first 24 hours of its release, according to Charttrack and retail customer sell-through information. This marks the third consecutive year that the Call of Duty franchise has set day one launch records across all forms of entertainment, something no other entertainment franchise in any medium has ever accomplished. Last year, in North America and the United Kingdom, Activision’s Call of Duty: Black Ops™ had estimated day-one sell-through of $360 million and in 2009, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, set day-one records with estimated sell through of $310 million, according to Charttrack and retail customer sell-through information. On November 8, 2011, millions of fans attended more than 13,000 midnight openings at retail stores around worldwide. According to Microsoft, after just two days, the number of gamers playing simultaneously on Xbox® Live® set a new peak concurrency record. “We believe the launch of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is the biggest entertainment launch of all time in any medium, and we achieved this record with sales from only two territories,” said Bobby Kotick, CEO, Activision Blizzard, Inc. “Other than Call of Duty, there has never been another entertainment franchise that has set opening day records three years in a row. Life-to-date sales for the Call of Duty franchise exceed worldwide theatrical box office for “Star Wars” and “Lord of the Rings,” two of the most successful entertainment franchises of all time.” Eric Hirshberg, CEO, Activision Publishing added, “Call of Duty is more than a game. It’s become a major part of the pop cultural landscape. It is a game that core enthusiasts love, but that also consistently draws new people into the medium. It is the most intense, adrenaline pumping entertainment experience anywhere. I would like to thank our incredible teams at Infinity Ward and Sledgehammer Games for making a brilliant game. But most of all, I would like to thank our millions of passionate fans worldwide. We made this game for you.” Separately, Activision announced this morning that in support and gratitude for the efforts of American servicemen and women, this Veterans Day it donated $3 million to the Call of Duty Endowment, a non-profit, public benefit corporation that seeks to provide job placement and training for veterans. This latest donation will be added to the $2 million that Activision has already donated to the Endowment, which has provided more than $1.5 million in grants and scholarships to veterans’ organizations across the country since it was conceived by Bobby Kotick in November of 2009. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is rated “M” (Mature) by the ESRB for Blood and Gore, Drug Reference, Intense Violence and Strong Language and is available now for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, and Windows® PC.

Republic Wireless to offer unlimited calls, SMS and data for $19 per month with hybrid android phones starting November 8th

here is the link to the website

Here is the link to Engadget with more info 


from Engadget  

"Prepaid world, you're getting called out. Offering what appears to be the lowest unlimited everything plan we've seen thus far, Republic Wireless -- a division of Bandwidth.com -- is ready to roll out its game-changing service next Tuesday. The carrier will be doling out all-you-can-eat talk, text and data for $19 per month. We're still slim on the nitty gritty details, but we know the new network is so inexpensive because it plans to utilize hybrid Android devices that rely mainly on UMA (the same WiFi-calling tech employed by T-Mobile) and will drop back to cellular roaming on Sprint when you're not in range of a hotspot. The company's main site offers nothing more than a teaser for now, but promises that we'll know all of its secrets no later than November 8th. If you're pulling your hair out wanting to find out more, we guess the teaser was a success."

Keenan Ivory Wayans is bringing ‘In Living Color’ back to TV

"EXCLUSIVE: Fox is bringing back its groundbreaking 1990s sketch comedy series In Living Color with the series’ creator and star, Keenan Ivory Wayans, on board as host and executive producer. Fox has ordered two In Living Color half-hour specials to air as part of the network’s 25th anniversary celebration in midseason with a series option behind them, meaning that in success, the reboot will join Fox’s schedule as a regular series next season. I hear it was Wayans’ idea to revive the popular sketch comedy series with a new cast. The new In Living Color will be produced by his production company Ivory Way Prods. in association with 20th Century Fox TV’s Fox 21. Like the remake, the original In Living Color, which was produced by Ivory Way Prods. and 20th TV, also launched in midseason, premiering on April 15, 1990. It broke stereotypes by employing a cast of mostly black comedians and introducing hip-hop and dancing to mainstream television. The show helped launch the careers of a slew of comedy actors — its cast included Wayans, his siblings Damon, Shawn, and later Marlon as well as Jim Carrey, Jamie Foxx and David Alan Grier, and of course Jennifer Lopez as one of the fly girls. In Living Color gave its actors freedom to improvise and it skewered everyone, particularly Black America. In probably the most successful programming stunt opposite the Super Bowl ever, a special live edition of In Living Color drew some 25 million viewers during the halftime of the 1992 Super Bowl on CBS. But the show’s fearlessness when it comes to the targets of its jokes and the unapologetic political incorrectness of its skits often ran afoul with Fox’s censors. The frequent clashes contributed to Wayans’ departure from the show after the third season though he remained an executive producer. In Living Color ended its run in May 1994 after 5 seasons. Fox has long been looking to launch a successful new sketch comedy series. Last season, it tried with In The Flow With Affion Crockett, executive produced by In Living Color alum Foxx, which was originally slated for midseason but ultimately aired in the summer to low ratings. At Fox 21, In Living Color joins series Homeland, Breakout Kings and Sons Of Anarchy. Kennen Ivory Wayans is repped by UTA."
