::LYRICAL-GASM:: YOU, I, AND THE CHICKS BY TERRIE BURNS

Alright, everyone give my friend, my girl, my soror Terrie some love and read her masterpiece. I will be posting her work on a regular basis. If you want to keep updated on her work, please go to her myspace page, http://www.myspace.com./chucktownzeta
Sign up to receive her masterpieces through her blog entries.


You, I, and the Chicks……..



Why is it that the wackest Negros approach you. They can have an expensive car, nice house, loot out of the ass, but they don't dress right or they seem ugly to You so You ignore them. That's until they find some who looked beyond those petty things, You couldn't. So now, You are jealous. So You give him a chance-for spite, but end up liking him, my bad loving him. So this Negro thinks he got props now. So he decides to play You, the chick who liked him for who he was, the chick who likes him for he got, and the chick who likes him for what he does. Then he denies the feelings that he has for any of the chicks…unless he's alone with them trying to get some. But if You ask anyone of them chicks, they swear they are his one and only. Until the chick who likes him for what he does finds another man who can do what he does even better. So the chick who likes him for what he does dumps him and he can't deal with it. So he finds me or you can say I. And I had to get to the bottom of shit. You see, I found something in him that You or none of the chicks would find. I found a heart. I told that dude I didn't need any of the shit he had. And that I wasn't attracted to the materialistic bullshit that You and the rest of the chicks are attracted to. Dude some how came back down to reality. He buried his bones. He told You, You weren't shit—because You were riding that jealous trip. He asked the chick who liked him for what he got, what would happen if he lost everything. Chick said she would leave with it. He told the chick peace. The chick who liked him for who he was, and I were the only two left in his life. But the dude and I were just kicking it. Dude and I both admitted the feelings for one another. But I told him if I can't be his one and only. Then I can't be nothing.

So dude really looked at his life and his two options. It was I and the chick who liked him for who he was. Dude picked I…I asked him why. He said You and the chicks run in and out of his life to carry and drop things along the way, mostly carry . All You and the chicks he had been with liked him for only things that he had, things he could do, and the things that he got. But I told him didn't the chick who liked you for who you was an exception to that. Dude said no. I asked why. Dude said, that chicks may have liked him for who he was, what he got, what he got..But You and the rest of them didn't know him completely as a person. I didn't get it. Dude explained the he knew I liked him for who he was, what he got, and what he does. I dug it. The moral of the story is why have many chicks when I am all of them wrapped up into one. See You and them chicks can be with your man, but I can come along and have all of him.

SEN. TED KENNEDY ENDORSES OBAMA

Sen. Edward Kennedy backed Sen. Barack Obama for president Monday, saying, "It is time again for a new generation of leadership."

"It is time now for Barack Obama," the Massachusetts senator and brother of the late President Kennedy added.

He stood with Obama, his son, Rep. Patrick Kennedy, and his niece, Caroline Kennedy, before a screaming capacity crowd of students at American University in Washington.

"Like you, we want a president who appeals to the hopes of those who still believe in the American dream," he said.

"I've found that candidate. And it looks to me like you have too," he said.

After Kennedy spoke, Obamatold the boisterous crowed: "I know what your support means. I know the cherished place the Kennedy family holds in the hearts of the American people."

And the Illinois Democrats said he would work to carry on the vision the senator's brother laid out when he was president nearly five decades ago.

"The dream has never died ... it lives on in those Americans, young and old, rich and poor, black and white, Latino and Asian and Native American, gay and straight, who are tired of a politics that divides us and want to recapture the sense of common purpose that we had when John Kennedy was president of the United States of America," Obama said.

OBAMA HAS BIG WIN IN SOUTH CAROLINA

Sen. Barack Obama claimed a significant victory in the South Carolina Democratic primary on Saturday, telling supporters "we are hungry for change."The Illinois senator earned more than twice the vote that rival Sen. Hillary Clinton did, 55 percent to 27 percent, unofficial returns showed. Former Sen. John Edwards was third with 18 percent.

"Tonight, the cynics who believed that what began in the snows of Iowa was just an illusion were told a different story by the good people of South Carolina," Obama said to supporters Saturday.

A win in South Carolina was considered crucial for Obama, who won Iowa but finished second to Clinton in New Hampshire and Nevada.

"I did not travel around this state over the last year and see a white South Carolina or a black South Carolina. I saw South Carolina," he said.

"The choice in this election is not between regions or religions or genders," Obama said. "It's not about rich versus poor; young versus old; and it is not about black versus white.

TONI MORRISON ENDORSES BARACK OBAMA

A decade ago, she called Bill Clinton the nation's "first black president." Now, acclaimed black writer Toni Morrison’s first presidential endorsement is going to the potential second, Barack Obama.In a letter to Obama released Monday morning, the “Beloved” author told him she was backing him because “this is one of those singular moments that nations ignore at their peril.”

“There have been a few prescient leaders in our past, but you are the man for this time,” she wrote

Morrison, who said she had long admired Hillary Clinton, added that her decision to back Obama instead was not based on the Illinois senator’s race.

“In addition to keen intelligence, integrity and a rare authenticity, you exhibit something that has nothing to do with age, experience, race or gender and something I don't see in other candidates,” Morrison wrote. “That something is a creative imagination which coupled with brilliance equals wisdom. It is too bad if we associate it only with gray hair and old age.”

MORE GOSSIP ABOUT TRACEY EDMUNDS AND EDDIE MURPHY


More gossip plumes are poofing up from the sudden crash of Eddie Murphy and Tracey Edmonds' marriage – which was done "spiritually" in Bora Bora during New Year's weekend but never made legal in the United States as planned.

The National Enquirer claims their respective families were at odds, particularly the mothers of the bride and groom. According to the tabloid, Murphy's mom felt Edmonds was a gold digger, while Tracey's mom felt Eddie wasn't good enough for her daughter.

As previously reported, there are also rumors that plans for the legal wedding hit a brick wall because Edmonds refused to sign a prenup.

A source told the New York Post: "There was no way Eddie would go through with it without knowing that his fortune would be protected if they split up."

Various reports also had the families bickering with each other during the wedding weekend on the island.


Aren't Eddie and Tracey old enough to make their own decisions. They are Grown A$$ People. So who cares about what you moms say if you are truly in love. Sounds like a load of crap to me.

IKE TURNER DIED OF COCAINE OVERDOSE


Controversial Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Ike Turner's death last month was the result of an accidental cocaine overdose, according to a report the San Diego County coroner's office filed yesterday (1/16).

Turner, who died Dec. 12 at age 76, had a history of drug problems. Hypertension and emphysema also contributed to his death, the medical examiner reportedly concluded.

Though recognized as a rock-music pioneer, Turner is best known for his tumultuous and abusive relationship with former wife and singing partner Tina Turner.

EDDIE MURPHY AND TRACEY EDMUNDS SPILIT??

The wedding ceremony between Eddie Murphy and film producer Tracey Edmonds two weeks ago was only symbolic -- and that's as far as they plan to go, they announced Wednesday. Murphy, 46, and Edmonds, 40, traded vows on New Year's Day on a private island off Bora Bora in French Polynesia in a ceremony that was not legally binding.

"After much consideration and discussion, we have jointly decided that we will forgo having a legal ceremony as it is not necessary to define our relationship further," said a statement on behalf of Murphy and Edmonds issued by publicist Arnold Robinson.

"While the recent symbolic union in Bora Bora was representative of our deep love, friendship and respect that we have for one another on a spiritual level, we have decided to remain friends," the statement said.
The statement did not clarify whether the two remained a couple. In an e-mail exchange, Robinson said he could not comment beyond the statement.
Murphy has six children from previous relationships. He and Edmonds, whose credits include "Dreamgirls" and "Beverly Hills Cop," began dating last year. They became engaged in July.

The talk-show queen announced Tuesday the launch of her very own cable network — called The Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN), set to debut in 2009. The channel is a joint venture between Winfrey’s Harpo Productions and Discovery Communications.

“Fifteen years ago, I wrote in my journal that one day I would create a television network, as I always felt my show was just the beginning of what the future could hold,” Winfrey, 53, said in a statement. “For me, the launch of ‘The Oprah Winfrey Network’ is the evolution of the work I’ve been doing on television all these years and a natural extension of my show.”

MARY J BLIGE, 50 CENT AND TYLER PERRY NAMED IN STEROID INVESTIGATION??





A number of entertainers were named in connection with an Albany-based steroid investigation, but they are not part of an ongoing criminal probe, according to a published report.
The Times Union of Albany cited unidentified law enforcement officials in reporting Sunday that R&B music star Mary J. Blige, rap musicians 50 Cent, Timbaland and Wyclef Jean, and award-winning author and producer Tyler Perry may have received or used performance-enhancing drugs.
Law enforcement officials have said evidence does not indicate that the celebrities broke the law, but that investigators are focusing on doctors, pharmacists and clinics that provide the drugs.
Albany District Attorney P. David Soares launched the investigation into steroid trafficking last year.
Soares is "not confirming, denying or discussing any of the names" involved in the investigation, said spokeswoman Heather Streeter Orth.
A spokeswoman for Blige denied the singer had taken illegal steroids.
Ken Sunshine, a spokesman for Tyler Perry, declined to comment.
There was no response to calls Sunday and Monday seeking comment from representatives of other entertainers.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE NEW CELEBRITY PARENTS



Atlanta R&B singer Monica has another new man in her life: a baby boy, born Tuesday afternoon Jan 8, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

The little guy is still awaiting a first name, but his middle name has been chosen – it's Montez, according to Monica's cousin and manager Melinda Dancil. The baby weighed in at 5 lbs., 6 oz. and was 19½ inches long.

Dancil tells the paper that mother and baby are fine – and that Monica, 27 (best known for '90s hits such as "The Boy Is Mine," with Brandy) had been recording her new album right up until the birth.








Nicole Ritchie
and her rocker boyfriend Joel Madden are the parents of a daughter, the couple's rep at Handprint Entertainment tells PEOPLE.

Harlow Winter Kate Madden was born Friday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and weighed 6 lbs. 7 oz.

"The beautiful healthy baby girl left the hospital with her ecstatic parents," says the rep, who confirmed the birth to PEOPLE exclusively.







Actor-comedian David Alan Grier and wife Christine Y. Kim had a baby girl, the couple tell PEOPLE.

Luisa Danbi Grier-Kim – Danbi means "sweet rain" in Korean – was 7 lbs., 6 oz and 20 inches long. She was born at 1:04 p.m. Thursday by planned C-section.

"She's amazing. Her looks evolve every moment, and she looks like me and David," Kim told PEOPLE after delivering the couple's first child, surrounded by family members in the delivery room. "I'm feeling euphoric, and David is ecstatic. He's the perfect proud father."





Suddenly there's a whole new meaning to "Come On Over Baby" for Christina Aguilera.

The five-time Grammy winner and hubby Jordan Bratman welcomed their first child in Los Angeles on Friday.

The couple announced the birth in a quick text message to friends and family around 4 p.m.: "Baby has arrived. Mom and dad are doing well!" (Apparently not even the prospect of dirrty diapers can dampen their spirits.)

There were no further details immediately available. "As soon as I have more information I will let you know," the singer's rep said.




Nicole and Christina were down the hall from each other. WOW!!!
Congratulations!!!

SC CHEERLEADER MURDERED BY EX BOYFRIEND AND WIFE


A two-day search for a popular South Carolina high school student ended Saturday with the discovery of the teenager's body in a local river and the arrest of a married couple who police say killed the teen and set her car on fire.

A student spotted the body of Marisha Jeter, 16, as she took photographs near the Broad River. Jeter had been stabbed in the neck, Union County Public Safety Chief Sam White told ABC News.

Jeter, who was president of the junior class at Union County High School and was also a cheerleader, had been last seen Thursday night on her way to McDonald's. She was reported missing early Friday morning by her father, a member of the Union County School Board, after he spent the night driving around looking for her.

Jeter's family told police that Marisha had recently been in touch with Pernell Clayton Thompson, a 20-year-old from neighboring Jonesville, whom she'd been in a relationship with. Thompson had recently married and had a child with another women, Yolanda Lee Thompson, 19.

White said Public Safety officials interviewed the Thompsons individually, both of whom said that they knew nothing about her disappearance.

"He more or less said he didn't know where she was and he would help us find her," White said. "He said that they had a relationship and it went sour, but he didn't give us too much detail."

By Saturday morning, the state police had joined the investigation, and that afternoon, Jeter's body was found about 15 miles from Union at the bottom of a steep river embankment. The photographer used her camera to zoom in and then realized she was looking at a body.

Immediately, police contacted the Thompsons a second time. "We told them during questioning what we found and presented them with information," White said. "They both confessed."

Both were charged in the murder of Jeter and are being held at the Union County Detention Center. They will make their court appearances next week, White said. The pair has apparently never been in trouble with the law before.

Investigators said the fatal confrontation began when Jeter received a text message Thursday evening from Thompson to meet her at the Union YMCA to return a coat. When Jeter arrived, however, she was met by Thompson and his wife, Yolanda, who had discovered that her husband was still communicating with Jeter.

There was a struggle, White said, and Jeter was stabbed in the neck. "They put her in the trunk of her car and drove her car down to Lockhart," he continued, where the body was dumped into the river. The car was driven a few miles down the main road, doused with gasoline and set on fire.


MUCH SYMPATHY GOES OUT TO THE JETER FAMILY. SENSELESS...JUST SENSELESS..

The headlines last summer mentioned dehydration as a reason for Kelly Rowland's collapse on stage during a concert in Lagos, Nigeria, but the singer now says that the six-hour time difference may have also been a factor.

"I was exhausted. Not only that but the time difference threw me off and I was jet-lagged," said the former Destiny's Child singer. "And I stayed up all night on the phone."

NE-YO SUING PROMOTERS OF R KELLY TOUR

Ne-Yo is suing the Georgia-based promoters of R. Kelly's Double Up tour claiming he was kicked off the bill in November because music critics and the audience liked him better than the headliner.
The complaint filed in Los Angeles Superior Court accuses Rowe Entertainment of breaching Ne-Yo's touring contract and violating his right of publicity by removing him from the 25-city tour after only two dates.
"Plaintiffs...allege...that an unknown representative of R. Kelly urged Rowe to terminate Smith from the tour given the audience and critics' more favorable reaction to Smith than the reaction to R. Kelly," the suit says, according to E! Online.
As previously reported, Ne-Yo underscored the sentiment following his dismissal just before Thanksgiving, telling BET: "People were talking more about my set than [Kelly's], and I don't think he liked that too much."
Following the abrupt firing, Kelly's camp explained away Ne-Yo's dismissal as a "contractual issue" between him and the promoter, saying Kelly played no part in the decision.
Compound Touring, which was responsible for arranging Ne-Yo's participation, joins Ne-Yo in suing Rowe Entertainment, claiming it lost a substantial amount of money when the singer was kicked off the tour.

RESPONSE FROM R. KELLY'S CAMP

"The idea that R. Kelly had anything to do with Ne-Yo being dropped from the Double Up tour is just plain silly. As we said at the time, Ne-Yo was dropped because of a contractual dispute with the tour promoter, and in fact Ne-Yo is not suing Kelly but only the promoter. Ne-Yo may think blaming the situation on R. Kelly will improve his chances of collecting from the promoter, but if he does, he is sadly mistaken. Anyone remotely familiar with R. Kelly knows he is confident enough in his own abilities to be happy to share the stage with enormously talented people -- the more talented, the better."

EDDIE MURPHY AND TRACEY EDMONDS MARRY IN BORA BORA


Eddie Murphy and Tracey Edmonds were married on New Year's Day on a private island off Bora Bora in French Polynesia in front of 25 friends and family, their reps tell PEOPLE.

In a sunset ceremony on the beach Tuesday, Edmonds walked barefoot down the aisle to Gladys Knight's "Makings of You." The bride wore a custom-designed form-fitting dress by stylist and designer Sugia Nazel and Jill Baracci, designer and owner of Baracci boutique.

Murphy wore a cream suit and vest with an off-white handkerchief.

Among the guests were best man Johnny Gill, maid of honor Nicole Avant, matron of honor Julie Lev, as well as Edmonds's parents Jacqueline and George McQuarn, her brother Michael, Murphy's mother Lillian Lynch and his brother Vernon.

Edmonds, 40, gave her bridesmaids gold and diamond earrings from XIV Karats in Beverly Hills, and Murphy, 46, gave his groomsmen D.Atlantis watches.

The wedding was designed by event designer Colin Cowie, who created a gazebo on the beach made out of 6,000 shells for the ceremony. After the ceremony, guests celebrated at a private dinner and after-party, where DJ Darrin Ebron from Los Angeles kept the guests dancing.

The wedding cake was by Sam Godfrey of Perfect Endings in Napa, CA, and featured four layers in whites and cream with handmade sugar cymbidium and dendrobium orchids.

Edmonds and Murphy started dating last fall and were engaged in July.
