<p>Glad I got back from Philly in time to write this&#8230;what do you get when you add <a href="http://bossip.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/kanye-henny-without-any-coke.jpg?w=450&amp;h=691">a bottle of cognac</a> to one of the world&#8217;s biggest egos?? Taylor Swift in tears, apparently. Damn. Kanye has jumped on stages before bitchin&#8217; about not winning when he thought<span id="more-8247"></span> he deserved one, but he was out of line here for couple of reasons. First, Taylor Swift has never won a VMA before; it was her first ever award from MTV, and &#8216;Ye pretty much killed that moment for her. If somebody jumped on stage when Kanye won his first award, I bet he&#8217;d have something to say about it.</p>
<p>Second, he was even fighting for himself! He was fighting for&#8230;wait for it&#8230;Beyonce! Now I know Beyonce and Kanye are good friends, but can you even NAME all the awards that Bey has won in her career?? Plus later on that night, Bey ended up winning Video of the Year, so that kind of made Kanye look like a dumbass even more.</p>
<p>It was a good look for Beyonce to bring Taylor Swift back on stage with her. We all thought Kanye had calmed down after his mother&#8217;s death, but what he did here obviously shows that he hasn&#8217;t changed much at all. Kanye&#8217;s apologized like 3 times already, but c&#8217;mon: if Beyonce hadn&#8217;t won Video of the Year, do you seriously think Kanye wouldn&#8217;t have called MTV racist like he did two years ago??</p>
<p>Does this mean that I&#8217;m no longer a Kanye fan? No way, the man has a huge ego, but he makes damn good music. But for his actions Sunday, he is without a doubt <strong>THE DMF OF THE WEEK!</strong></p>

<p>When I chosen to do this column, I questioned whether giving him this award would really help in the rehabilitation. <strong>However, this is nappyafro, and votes were cast and while it was close, DMX prevailed as the winner.</strong> Why you ask? The one time face of Def Jam was arrested more times than Pacman Jones! Nine times in a nine months has to be a record somewhere. His arrests range from speeding to identity theft.<span id="more-2424"></span> How X goes to a hospital and no one recognizes him is beyond me, but that might be an example of how far his status is fallen. Get this…X is still walking the streets. He said it in a song, “Only nigga walking the streets with four felonies!” Everyone has demons they deal with; <strong>I hope that DMX gets his life together</strong>. This has to be one of the biggest “Falls from Grace” in Hip-Hop history. X was in line to be the next 2Pac, then he went and messed it all up! <strong>How do you go from selling millions of records, selling out arenas, starring in movies to buying $30 worth of crack and weed on the streets?</strong> DMX, this is going to you as a person: put the game to the side right now and get Earl right. DMX will be okay once Earl is straight. I present this award to DMX, but I’m hoping that Earl Simmons will never make this award again.</p>

<p>Jim Jones of &#8220;We Fly High&#8221; fame has been notorious for his beef with Jay-Z and also for being a mediocre rapper. But this time he knows he crossed the line with what he said. Last week, he dissed both T.I. AND Jay-Z for not including him on their radio hit &#8220;Swagga Like Us&#8221; with Kanye and Lil&#8217; Wayne since: &#8220;You can&#8217;t have a song about swag unless I&#8217;m on it.&#8221;<span id="more-1422"></span> I don&#8217;t know if those are his exact words, but it was something like that. T.I. responded kind of mildly to Jones&#8217; comments, not really talking about it. Then Jones took the cake with this one: he dissed Nas!!</p>
<p><strong>The Comments:</strong></p>
<p><em>&#8220;Fuck Nas. I don’t give a fuck about Nas. He’s a rapper that just lost his pizazz. When I was in high school, he was the sh*t. He was the n*gg* that got us hyped. &#8216;New York State of Mind&#8217;, Illmatic and all of that&#8221;</em> said Jones.</p>
<p><em>&#8220;I was never cool with him. I seen Nas a few months ago in L.A. with Dame. We was staying in this hotel right above the Ferrari dealership. Dame seen him and was talking to him. I was laying back on a couch laughing. He didn’t know what to do. I was looking dead at him. [Laughs.] And then Dame was like, “You know Jim?” He started [stammering], “Ah? Ah?” Dame is just burnt out. He not thinking about none of that frivolous [beef] sh*t. Me neither, for the most part. <strong>Nas was never on my level ever. Ever.</strong>&#8220;</em></p>
<p>I am speechless. Never on Jones&#8217; level?? Nas is probably the reason this nigga ever even touched the mic!! I don&#8217;t think I even need to talk about the number of classics under Nas&#8217; belt, since Jones has none and only has released one album (We won&#8217;t count the first two). I just hope that Nas doesn&#8217;t go the way Jay did and release a song called: &#8220;We Fly High (QB Remix)&#8221;: even though <a href="http://www.nappyafro.com/2008/07/14/nasuntitled-by-b-easy/">Nas&#8217; album <em>Untitled</em></a> STILL hasn&#8217;t gone Gold yet (Support people!!), I doubt that the legendary MC would respond to this. But on the other hand, Nas has made a lot of mistakes in his career; this would take the cake!</p>
<p><strong>Congratulations Jim Jones, you are the <font color="#ff0000">DMF of the WEEK!</font></strong></p>

<p>The responses for the DMF have become overwhelming! I wasn’t going to do it this week, until Yung Berg decided to pop off at the mouth. No we’re not talking about the Flo Rida’s hairline&#8230;line, but what he had to say about my chocolate sisters!<span id="more-1132"></span></p>
<p align="left">
<p>“I’m kinda racist… I don’t really like dark butts too much… It’s rare that I do dark butts. Like really rare… It’s like, no darker than me. No darker than me. I love the pool test…. If you can be like ‘Yo, baby. I met you in the club. Let’s go back to my house. Jump in the pool exactly like you are.’–And you don’t come looking better wet than you were before you got in the pool then that’s not a good look. Any woman that uses brown gel to set down her baby hair is not poppin” (<a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/15008722572a0749/">You can listen to the ignorance here</a>).</p>
<p align="left">
<p>Wow! YB has really taken it there! How are you going to alienate your female fan base like that? So when these “dark butts” stop supporting you, I hope you have enough light and damn near white fans to keep your Transformer chain out the pawn shop! Look at these two “dark butts” how can you turn these down?</p>

<p>This week I had to pull out my roasting pan and throw somebody in the fryer! The lucky person this time is…<strong>40 GLOCC</strong>! How are you going to YouTube (or Dailymotion) a video about you snatching Tyga’s chain? First off, Tyga isn’t even a STREET dude! You don’t get a ratings boost for that one.<span id="more-1035"></span> The guy you robbed doesn’t even pretend to be hard. I’m not trying to take up for him, but do you know how STUPID you look bragging about taking his chain. I’m pretty sure he didn’t know who you were and thought you was just robbing him. Why didn’t you go after a live nigga? I am glad to report that he has given the chain back, but that still doesn’t change the fact that he is the dumb motherfu&#8230;uh, <strong>DMF of the Week</strong>! <strong>Congratulations 40 GLOCC!</strong> (Check out the video below)</p>
