It's
that time again to put ya'll up on what's been
crackin' in the entertainment world. Currently
ya boy J.Mack is in Los Angeles, California,
working on my new album. I have also been performing
throughout Southern Cal and it's been a blast.
At the same time, I still have my ear to the
streets and my eyes on the entire game. In this
month's article, I'll be letting you know what's
goin' on in Portland, LA and nationally.
First
Up - National News
Nelly
Victimized by Charity Fraud 
The
very next day after the multi-platinum rap superstar
announced that he was launching a nationwide
search for a bone marrow donor for his sister,
Jackie Donahue, he learned that some punk ass
imposters were trying to steal money meant for
the cause. These charity poachers were apparently
making phone calls to raise funds in the Los
Angeles area and in Nelly's hometown of St.
Louis. What makes this situation real fucked
to me is that, if his sister dies because some
generous people gave their hard-earned money
to some bullshitters instead of the actual charity,
they may change their minds about donating money
in the future. A spokesperson for Nelly and
his sister said, "Jackie is disappointed but
strong in faith, and believes that the imposters
will get what they deserve from a higher power."
On Wednesday, May 14th, in St. Louis, Nelly
and his sister Jackie announced her immediate
need for a bone marrow donor and formed the
charity organization "Jes Us 4 Jackie". If you
or someone you know would like to make a legitimate
donation to help Nelly's sister, the only way
to do so is to visit their website jesus4jackie.com.
Good luck to ya'll. One!!!
Dennis
Rodman--
married?
What
I'm wondering is which one of them wore the
wedding 
dress?
Anyway, the former NBA bad boy was recently
married on his 42nd birthday to Michelle Moyer.
The couple met at a bar four years ago and have
two children. They exchanged vows in a quiet
civil ceremony in Newport Beach, California.
Now they are planning a huge celebration at
the beach on June 14th, and guess what? "Everybody's
invited," says Rodman. He told the Los Angeles
Times that there will be a big concert.
The neighbors of Mr. Rodman aren't too pleased
with the announcement of this party because
the police have been called to his house more
than 70 times for noise complaints. They're
probably mad because they weren't invited!
This is Rodman's third marriage. Last time he
tied the knot with Carmen Electra's sexy ass.
Hope it works out this time dogg...

Before
I came down to LA, I had the chance to check
out a new Hip-Hop spot in the P-Town. It takes
place on Tuesday nights at the Ash Street Club.
It's located in downtown Portland on S.W. 2nd
& Ash. They have a live band that plays
behind some of the tightest rappers in the city.
The night I went to the club, I was called to
the stage to participate in a free-style session.
I was cool wit' that 'cause ya boy got skillz.
But why did this cat try to call me out to battle.
I was like "this boy is in for a verbal ass
whoopin'" because free-styling is one of my
many areas of expertise. He started it off by
calling me a cracked out Bobby Brown look-a-like.
After he said that shit, it was seriously on!!!
I hit him with both barrels. "You're a Hip-Hop
Scarecrow with stinky dreads......and he was
born out the ass of a Chicken-head!!!" I can't
really remember everything I said to old boy,
but everybody in the Ash Street was crackin'
up. Even his homies were laughing. I swear it
was like some 8 Mile type of shit that night.
Plus it was all in fun. When I get back to Portland,
I plan to holla at those catz about doing a
local showcase in which I will be inviting A&R
reps from various record lables to check out
the talent. So if you not doing nothing on Tuesdays,
be sure to check it out. You won't be mad....
