Nas and Dog the Bounty Hunter to Do Duet on Nas' Next Album- "Superhead" Coming to the Big Screen

As all of you know Nas is coming out with an album entitled N***er. Well he is planning to do a duet with Dog the Bounty Hunter featuring a track from footage taken from the filming of Dog's A&E show. Yes folks, Dog was caught on tape "empowering" Black people by dropping the N-word left and right while referring to his son's Black girlfriend:

Duane "Dog" Chapman: I don't care if she's a Mexican, a whore or whatever. It's not because she's black, it's because we use the word ni**er sometimes here. I'm not gonna take a chance ever in life of losing everything I've worked for for 30 years because some fucking ni**er heard us say ni**er and turned us in to the Enquirer magazine. Our career is over! I'm not taking that chance at all! Never in life! Never! Never! If Lyssa [Dog's daughter] was dating a ni**er, we would all say 'fuck you!' And you know that. If Lyssa brought a black guy home ya da da... it's not that they're black, it's none of that. It's that we use the word ni**er. We don't mean you fucking scum ni**er without a soul. We don't mean that shit. But America would think we mean that. And we're not taking a chance on losing everything we got over a racial slur because our son goes with a girl like that. I can't do that Tucker. You can't expect Gary, Bonnie, Cecily, all them young kids to [garbled] because 'I'm in love for 7 months' - fuck that! So, I'll help you get another job but you can not work here unless you break up with her and she's out of your life. I can't handle that shit. I got 'em in the parking lot trying to record us. I got that girl saying she's gonna wear a recorder... Tucker Chapman: I don't even know what to say. (SOURCE)

Read more at Sandra Rose. Apparently A&E has suspended Dog's show. What is the matter A&E don't you know that using the N-word is "empowering"? Well keep your head up Dog. If you get dropped by A&E, a record label should be right behind them offering you a deal because Lord knows the record industry loves "empowering" Black people. L.A. Reid should be calling Dog any day now. Well so will Rev. Al. Oh sorry, Dog has already reached out to Rev. Al ( so cliche' Dog. So. cliche'). Good luck with Rev. Al. But good news for Dog, his pastor is acting as a character reference on this issue, Rev. Tim has certified that Dog is not racist. So everything is all better now. Folks 2007 will be the year of "Ignorance Personified." Who is next?

Confessions of a Video Vixen Movie?

Well parents you have one more role model for your daughters. Harriet Tubman does not have a major feature film about her life. Neither do Fannie Lou Hamer, Barbara Jordan, Shirley Chisholm, Dr. Mae Jemison, or Rosa Parks ( HBO doesn't count). I guess Betty Shabazz "technically" had a movie about her life if you count "Malcolm X." Well parents, never you fear because Media Take Out is reporting that Karrine Steffans' "Confessions of a Video Vixen " is coming to a big screen near you. I guess I am going to have to do a claymation movie of the life of Harriet Tubman. *heads to the store to purchase some play dough*

[pinkydj]

WHO, please tell me WHO...would want to play the lead in Video Vixens or whatever they will call it ?

Jesus, PLEASE take the wheel. (I mean that for REAL..not in the "funny" way.)

Ugh.

[Makeda]

It's official: Hollywood hates blackwomen. Video vixen? Are you kiddin' me................

As for the Dog situation.... you can't tell me that in this day and age black people are surprised that white people call us nigger behind closed door. This wasn't a shock to me.

[Randi523]

Dag, am I psychic or something?? I was JUST telling one of my friends that I was waiting on her "memoir" to be turned into a soft porn movie

[Miss Issues]

This why I don't want to apart of today's entertainment industry. All they care about is portraying blacks as one-dimensional shallow stereotypes.
I went back to school to fulfill her dream of becoming a screenwriter who writes good quality work for black women. I have since change my mind and will concentrate on becoming a book writer. Makeda, it's not Hollywood, it's America.

[I'm Just Asking]

There is no way this movie could be anything but porn. This is so ridiculous it is sad. Makeda, I agree with you I am not surprised about this recording, I don't think there is anyone in Hollywood I would be surprised about really if we knew what they were saying in their homes. Do we even really want to know all of that? They play roles and should not be seen as role models.

[Symphony]

The day Black women are no longer willing to do this crap is the day it won't be on TV/movies/music.

[Woman in Transition]

Amen, Symphony!

This girl needs some serious psychotherapy. I hope her therapist is encouraging her to remove herself from the sick situation of 'video vixen-ness' and get on the right path to healing. This is what happens to people when they lose themselves in unhealthy attachments.

[Attorneymom]

I am going to vomit.

[SheCodes]

Hey Symphony,

I'll cosign and add to your post: Black actors will be willing to take those roles as long as the rest of Black America doesn't scorn, shun, and ridicule them for doing so.

There were a few black actors in "Birth of a Nation", the most racist movie ever made....

[Symphony]

I'm with you on that too SheCodes. WE are the problem, corporations are simply benefitting from it.

You didn't like the idea of White women jumping off cliffs to get away from the big, bad Black men? And the savior coming in on their horses to save the day? LOL

[Makeda]

Will Debra Lee be making a cameo appearance in this upcoming cinematic masterpiece?

[Tracey]

Sorry Makeda,

All cameos for "Superhead - The Epic" have been reserved for the Flavor of Love castmembers.

[JJ]

I don't know why anyone is surprised. Successful boks are often turned into movies.

Her book(s) have been runaway hits. She has a very successful website and now a publishing company.

The fact that there is a movie being made is not a surprise or should be that shocking.

[Makeda]

I hate to think what all the audition for the lead role will entail. Yuck!!! Seriously, this just breaks my heart. What kind of message is this sending to young impressionable women. That it's a SMART thing to sell you body for money. That prostitution is a smart career move. Sure, this vixen person made a lot of money - but look what it cost her. Has she counted the cost - or is she even aware that she paid a steep price for her fame and wealth? People like this scare me - it's like they have no soul.

I have been taking tentative steps at "being an activist" for BW. One thing I'm met with constantly is the same argument:

BF call each other the N word, so its no big deal.

Any thoughts on that?

[arthur]

..BF call each other the N word, so its no big deal...

Miriam, FWIW, if it were me, I'd say, "It's a bad word and no one should say it". Maybe you'd word it differently, but I'm figuring that's what you believe, so just say it, without apology.

Whatever else they say, whatever argument they dredge up, just look them in the eye and repeat, "It's a bad word and no one should say it".

Also FWIW. it's what I believe. I don't think it's harmless even when black folk use it to each other.

[SheCodes]

Miriam,

Would it make sense to constantly call an overweight person "lard-butt" to take the sting out of it? Most people can see the moronic nature of that argument, but can't see it with blacks and the n-word.

It's possible that the illogical clinging to this demeaning word with a horrific past is caused by a social psychosis -- akin to Stockholm Syndrome. We fall in love with everything that hurts us the worst.

This attempt to overuse it to 'take the sting out of it' is pure, unadulterated stupidity. It's like telling someone, "I'm going beat the daylights out of you, so that you will be de-sensitized when someone else comes to beat you up."

What is so difficult about promoting actual loving words ("brother", "precious", "love-muffin") instead of convoluted, hate-disguised-as-love words ("ma nigga", "my b*tch").

Are we so divorced from tenderness toward each other that we MUST add a scorpion's bite even to terms of endearment? Like I said... insanity...
