"In football, there isn't really such a thing as a beat reporter; every writer is a war correspondent parachuting into a strange country where they're not particularly welcome."

Any idiot can write a game recap if they actually watched the game. You don't need Marshawn Lynch, who obviously isn't going to give you shit to write about, to recap the game for you. It's lazy fucking journalism, they're just looking for a soundbite to throw into the piece they've already written.

Okay thanks for stopping by.

When did "So, _______; can you talk about that?" become an acceptable way to pose a query in an interview? I graduated with a degree in Journalism in 2000* and feel like any one of the professors would have slapped me across the face if I ever said something like that in an interview.

Leave this one alone. Some people aren't worth saving...

Actually, no it's not. But thanks for playing. Here, have some Chelsea Jane. She's Australian and raps in an Australian accent. She even has some decent flow. You're welcome.

Iggy is a created rapper who imitates the aspects of Black culture she finds appealing, aka the most likely to make her boatloads of money. She is a white person from Australia. She raps in a Southern American style. She thinks there's such a thing as reverse racism. She took a song referring to being a runaway slave…

I am here for this!

The writer knows. The article called him "the other Tip".

Yes, the truth hurts. You'll be alright.

I think there's a whole lot more to his wife dying her hair blond and changing her eye color to blue. Didn't think about that in the content of this whole Iggy thing but it's definitely something that makes you go "hmmm."

You mean stealing music from less known black artists? Not awesome, but profitable.

She referred to herself as a slave master in one of her older songs. Also, see her racist tweets.

Did you really bring up Elvis, as if that makes what Iggy is doing better? Really? Okay. But to quote Hip Hop legend Chuck D:

I know that T.I. feels like he needs to protect his financial interest at every turn but sometimes he needs to sit things out. The fact that he feels he can adequately address Q-Tip is hilarity within itself.

Vaguely remember watching a movie on BET I believe was depicting the early career of Little Richard. A good portion of the movie touched on the historical practice of music executives taking black music and redoing it with white artists sans attribution. This was the result of the majority white audience refusal to…

You're probably correct, but I don't think it's soft.

"T.I. responded with a series of educational tweets of his own."

Really? With the way he acts, I would've thought it would be pretty hard.

T.I. is an anti-black misogynist. He threatens to push down Azealia Banks down the stairs after he's attacked by her via social media, but when a man is involved, he gives his two cents respectfully. *eye roll*
