Fired Anchor A.J. Clemente Going on Letterman?!
The anchor who was fired after his first day for profanity during a live broadcast will now be interviewed by David Letterman.
Meaning, Clemente’s misfortune may be the best thing that ever happened to him in his career. America, you have to love it for its ridiculous nature.
A.J. Clemente, the anchor fired from Bismark, N.D., television station KFYR after a disastrous first day, will go on the “Late Show with David Letterman” tonight to talk about it.
Clemente became an Internet phenomenon this week when a clip of him uttering on-air profanity went viral. He has since enjoyed his moment of infamy with a “Today Show” appearance, and earlier this week Letterman did a Clemente-themed Top 10 List, “Top 10 Signs Your First Day as a News Anchorman Did Not Go Well.”

Mo’Kelly in the Morning 4.12.13 – Mo’Kelly goes IN on The President re: Jay-Z and Special Lou Gossett Jr. Conversation
I start with Kudos for Michelle Obama for her speech in Chicago. After that, I have very harsh words for President Obama, his association with Jay-Z and the message it continues to send. This was avoidable but inevitable when one aligns oneself with the ilk of Jay-Z.
Also, be sure to listen to my hour-long conversation with Academy Award-winner Lou Gossett Jr. and how he details our separation from God and family have been the chief reasons why we as African-Americans are where we are. Powerful words. Pay close attention.

Reebok Drops Rick Ross over Date Rape Lyrics Controversy! #RRR
Rick Ross just learned a hard lesson about rape and money … you embrace one, you lose the other … because he was just DUMPED by Reebok.
As TMZ previously reported … Ross has taken a ton of heat for his song, U.O.E.N.O … in which he happily sings, “Put Molly [Ecstasy] all in the champagne. She ain’t even know it. I took her home and I enjoy that. She ain’t even know it.” Translation — date rape.
Reebok tells TMZ … “Reebok holds our partners to a high standard, and we expect them to live up to the values of our brand. Unfortunately, Rick Ross has failed to do so.”
Reebok goes on: “While we do not believe that Rick Ross condones sexual assault, we are very disappointed he has yet to display an understanding of the seriousness of this issue or an appropriate level of remorse.”

New York City Hall Protest Highlights Rick Ross and Date Rape Lyrics #RRR
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Teens, parents and New York City Council members joined together Wednesday to denounce music artists using controversial lyrics they contend promote date rape.
The protesters especially took issue with rapper Rick Ross and his music.
“For those who may not know, Rick Ross put out a song on how to date rape a female. What’s wrong about it is that as a 15 year old, it affects me. And this is what’s being played on the radio and in TV,” one teen told reporters, including 1010 WINS’ Stan Brooks.
Ross’ song “U.O.E.N.O. (You Ain’t Even Know It)” features the following lyrics: “Put molly all in her champagne, she ain’t even know it. I took her home and I enjoyed that, she ain’t even know it.”
“Molly” is a reference to MDMA, or ecstasy. The National Institute on Drug Abuse said MDMA “produces feelings of increased energy, euphoria, emotional warmth and empathy toward others, and distortions in sensory and time perception.”

New Pittsburgh Courier Lays into Rick Ross and Date Rape Lyrics #RRR
by Dion Rabioun
ATLANTA (Real Times News Service)–William Leonard Roberts II is a clown.
He’s a clown who has made a very good living pretending to be a notorious international drug dealer surrounded by guns, henchmen, champagne and women. He is the prime example of just how unreal hip hop has become.
The stories Roberts tells under his rap moniker Rick Ross are likely true stories about Rick Ross. They are not, however, stories about William Leonard Roberts. Roberts is a fake, a phony, an imposter. He began his career rapping in the first person about hustling, murder and a multi-million dollar, crime-fueled lifestyle that he saw on television.
Not only has he stolen another man’s name and life, but his raps push lies to Black children about how great it is to be a murderous drug dealer. Rappers have long ceased being role models in their rhymes, but one could at least ask for some authenticity and a bit of compunction.
The real Rick Ross, the one whose name Roberts stole (and is being sued for stealing), actually made millions of dollars working with Central American drug lords peddling crack cocaine to unsuspecting Black communities and spent 13 years in prison for it. He has been more than conciliatory about his actions and their deleterious effect on urban neighborhoods to this day.
The man who actually lived the life William Roberts raps about now spends his time working with communities to keep kids out of the streets and to dispel the notion that there’s anything glamorous about selling drugs.
The fake Rick Ross, the one who was really an Albany State football player and then a corrections officer during the time he raps about selling kilograms of cocaine and meeting with “the real Noreaga” who purportedly owes him “a hundred favors,” has made his money pushing a story of gangster make believe. But that was all fine and good, all part of the “rap game,” until his verse on the Rockie Fresh song “U.O.E.N.O.” (a cute way to say “you don’t even know”).
“Put molly all in her champagne, she ain’t even know it / I took her home and I enjoyed that, she ain’t even know it,” Ross rapped.
That stopped the presses. Because even though almost all the fake Rick Ross raps about is murder and profiteering from drug pushing, there’s still a line drawn at condoning rape.
You can rap about selling poison to children, murdering innocents and slapping prostitutes around all you want, but drugging a woman and raping her? That’s a bridge too far.
