Diddy

A new documentary is being released, which features real footage that chronicles the lives of his closest friends and associates after his passing. SOHH states:

Life After Death: The Movie reveals the triumphs and trials of Biggie’s close friend D-Roc (real name Damion Butler), and his associates, Lil’ Kim and Junior M.A.F.I.A., after Biggie’s passing. Narrated by Jamie Hector (”The Wire”) and directed by April Maiya, the film follows those who were forced to move on after the 1997 shooting, via their own video footage. The film shows friends and group members as they traveled the world enjoying the fruits of their musical success and later documents the crew’s unraveling, thanks primarily to the HOT 97 shootout that put Lil’ Kim and D-Roc behind bars.

Diddy recently came in 43rd on this year’s Forbes 100 Most Powerful Celebrities list, making 23 between June 2006 and June 2007. His celebrity earnings, google hits, tv/radio mentions, press mentions and number of times he landed on the cover of a major consumer magazine were all taken into account by Forbes. This must have been a very good year for Diddy because he jumped up 36 spots from #79 in 2006. Other black celebs that rounded out the list were Jay-Z, 50, Tyra, Shaq, LeBron, Michael Jordan, Kobe, Will Smith and Serena Williams. Oprah topped the list at #1, bringing in $260 million dollars this year. Tiger Woods was in at #2, but I don’t know if I would classify him…

First you don’t hear about her for years, and now she’s popping up everyday. Queer Black Cinema (yes,you’re reading it right) is reporting that Babs will host its premiere of its newest gay teen series, and live performances from its most notable LGBTQ (lesbian,gay,bisexual,transgender,queer) artists on June 17. Back up. Is a bell going off loud and clear in anyone else’s head?! I’m not even going to comment on this one, I’ll leave that up to you guys.

Look who still exists, it’s Babs!! Apparently she didn’t die off the face of the earth like the rest of MTB4, because she is set to present at the Urban Music Awards. Her MySpace page states that she will be presenting the Lifetime Achievement Award to Mariah Carey at the event, hosted by Foxy Brown. The two will be seeing alot of each other lately, seeing that she’s joining Fox Boogie on tour in Africa. It’s good to see two female rappers who don’t have beef. My only question is how are all of those pics up on MySpace at events no one has ever seen her at? When the hell was she at 106 and Park?!
