Mariah Fires Back at Em..

After Eminem's latest attack on Mariah on Relapse's "Bagpipes from Baghdad," Mariah finally took matters into her own hands with a fire-back DISS song. I like the work from Mariah. She's had to sit and take it for a while, but this time she decided to do something about it. I respect that.

The best part is that I have more respect for this than I would have if Nick Cannon tried making a diss song. I bet Mariah felt the same way. "Uhh, Nick, I appreciate that you care, but just let me make the record."

"Ok, well can I at least say a few things on the track?"

"Umm, gee, uh, I already got Gucci Maine. Sorry."

Nick Cannon is a chooch. Mariah is on fiyahh:



Let us know what you think in the poll to the right.

Good looks to Balla on the find.

Movie Wednesday

Sunshine Cleaning
Release Date: In theatres
Fan Buzz: So-so
Critic Reviews: Fresh

WKFTB Opinion: I dunno. With Emily Blunt and Amy Adams, the producers of Little Miss Sunshine (what’s with them and the sun?) and being a hit at Sundance, this has all the makings of a movie I wouldn’t like. I really just put it in here because A) we do have some female readers and B) we’ve covered most of the ill movies out right now (Observe and Report, Adventureland, I Love You Man, Fast & Furious, etc.). If anything, it’s guaranteed to be well-made, so see at your own risk.



Obsessed
Release Date: April 24
Fan Buzz: People seem to be interested
Critic Reviews: None yet, which is concerning
WKFTB Opinion: Idris Elba and Beyonce star in this one. Fans of The Wire know Elba, aka Stringer Bell (more on him below). The trailer is pretty good. I have to say I’m mildly intrigued by this movie. At the absolute least, you can count on Beyonce being a smokeshow and Elba delivering a solid performance. I’d say this would be a perfect date movie – enough action and suspense to keep the dudes into it, but with a storyline that hits home with the ladies.



Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
Release Date: June 24
Fan Buzz: Pumped
Critic Reviews: Too early
WKFTB Opinion: Can we really take another movie watching taking, walking, righting animations? And Shia LeBeouf? Cue the Pepsi cans and Dorito bag insignia because this thing is gonna be everywhere in a few weeks. That’s how you can pick the blockbuster of the summer, BTW, by checking to see if it made it on the Pepsi can for June/July. Picture drinking green Hulk Mountain Dews and Hancock Pepsis and shit. Haha love it kinda. Typical summer blockbuster so I might have to see it just because of the hugeness. I hate missing huge things, and this, no doubt, will be enourm.



Pop Culture:
-Fast & Furious set the all-time record for the biggest Opening Weekend in the month of April. The fourth installment of the series copped a whopping $71 million last weekend. Vin and Paul are baaackkk.

-Idris Elba, aka Stringer Bell from The Wire, is not only set to appear next to Beyonce in Obsessed, he also is playing an exec on TV’s The Office. Underrated is that he is British. How weird is that?

-Someone stole the new Wolverine movie from Fox and posted it on the internet. Fox was heated and the FBI is looking into it. This happened before with Hulk in 2003 and Universal claims they lost $100 mill because of it.

-Kind of went under the radar, but T.I. will report to federal prison on may 19 to begin serving his one year and one day sentence on felony weapons charges. Actually a good break for the rapper, who received the reduced sentence on March 27 in exchange for 1,000 hours of community service which he filmed for an MTV show, T.I.’s Road to Redemption.

-DVDs: Doubt and Yes Man came out last week. The Reader and The Day the Earth Stood Still came out yesterday.

-CDs: Jadakiss and MIMS released new albums last week. Jada is fire. Haven’t listened to my boy MIMS yet, but I’m hearing good things.
