Rapper T.I. was arrested along with his wife Tiny for suspicion of possessing marijuana in West Hollywood, California.

Officers pulled the car over T.I. and his wife were in and smelled bud and they were arrested. They posted a $10,000 bail and was released.

When I first saw this information on T.I. I said…..WHAT THE HELL!!!! Of course you are innocent until proven guilty but I thought T.I. was going to do his best to stay out of trouble after a serving time in jail for weapons possession charges. I guess I was wrong.

After T.I. was released from prison he went on a big tour of schools and community centers to speak with kids about staying in school and getting a good education and staying out of trouble etc. And now this. I am VERY disappointed in T.I. if these charges are true.

T.I. should remember he was given another change to be a role model kids can look up too. A chance to be a leader in the hip-hop game and out of it too. Guess he did not want to be a role model folks. Guess he was fooling us.

Readers what guys like T.I. and folks in the public eye (even myself) need to realize is that we are people young folks look at to be leaders and role models. We do not need to be hanging out at clubs until 2am or we do not need to be beating up people or even our ladies or girlfriends or vise versa.

If these charges against T.I. and even Tiny are true I will be VERY disappointed. Remember Tiny, the wife of T.I., is a former member of the singing group Xscape and a star of a reality show. So young ladies look up to her too.

I will be giving you more details on the arrest of T.I. and Tiny right here on the #1 urban website in the Northwest…..”Music Inner City News Magazine”   This is “One Man’s Opinion” by Gordon Curvey

Why is the clown Glenn Beck so doggone popular? I watched his rally in Saturday on TV and saw his so called speech and afterwords I was wondering one thing. What in the hell did he just say?

It was a speech that showed me he is a lost soul and the drugs he used to take has messed up his mind because I did not understand what the hell his speech was about.

The crowd at his rally was 99% white. The crowd at Beck’s rally were anti-President Obama. Haters against our President because he is a African American. Our first African American President.

What Beck and his conservative friends like Laura Ingraham, Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity is doing against President Obama is DANGEROUS. Very dangerous folks.

Folks what Beck and his right wing buddies are doing is bringing out bigots and racists that do not like African Americans or people of color. One of these clowns may try to harm our President. I hope and pray this does not happen but if you listen to what the right is saying it could set someone off to try to hurt President Obama. These right wingers are very very angry.

This rally was led by a man in Glenn Beck who called President Obama a racist. Who got a African African American Van Jones fired from his job, who went after Acorn and now the organization is no longer around. And what I am real bothered by is this. GLENN BECK MADE FUN OF PRESIDENT OBAMA’S 11 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER!!!!!!!!! This guy is a sick puppy.

Like I said earlier, I think the drugs he used to be hooked on messed up his brain. He should be in the Ringling Bros. circus as a clown.

So why is Glenn Beck so popular? He is popular because he is leading the hate against against President Obama. And has support from his Fox News friends in Hannity and O’Reilly and others.

Readers if you are a supporter of President Obama like myself, please do like me and say a prayer for our President and his family. He needs our support against bigots like Glenn Beck. This is One”s Man’s Opinion.

Tiger Woods said his problems with his now ex-wife Elin messed with him game on the golf course during the last year or so.

Duh……..yeah I guess Tiger. But do I or even you have sympathy for Tiger? I don’t. I have ZERO sympathy for a man who cheated on his wife over and over and over. This cat has been great on the golf course and terrible as a husband. And I mean TERRIBLE!!

I feel sorry for Elin and I feel sorry for Elin and Tiger’s kids. What will Tiger tell his kids when they are older about his cheating ways? Will he tell them the truth?

To be real we should not care about Tiger’s love life, but the more I think about it, the more I care because Tiger Woods should be a role model for his kids and for the millions of other kids who looked up to him.

After all he has the Tiger Woods Foundation and even has a school in his name. I think it was wrong for Tiger to act like he did knowing he has his kids who call him daddy and the kids who attend his school and the kids who have been helped by his foundation.

Since he now has his divorce from Elin, I hope he can act like a role model, and win some events and act like the #1 player in the world.      Gordon Curvey

Forbes Magazine has listed the top money makers in hip-hop and these cats are making PLENTY of cash.

You have to remember readers, hip-hop or in music as a whole, you can make money from all over the world.

I tell young performers here in Seattle this all the time. You can be a total flop in the U.S. but blow up in Japan or South Africa or England or Germany etc.

Plus hip-hop artists make plenty of cash when they hit the road for performances. Again, they preform all over the world.

And also cats like Jay Z and Diddy make MILLIONS away from the microphone. Jay Z is part owner of the New Jersey Nets and has night clubs and and of course much more and Diddy has Sean John and more. And Nelly has Apple Bottom and more.

50 Cent made millions and millions when he invested in Vitamin Water. Please click the link above to see the Forbes list. The money these cats make is amazing!      Gordon Curvey

Kind of strange that actress Halle Berry is doing her first interview in three years. And also it is strange she is doing it with Vogue Magazine.

I am thinking why Vogue and not Oprah? If am not mistaken, that was her last big interview on former guest on Seattle’s Music Inner City, Oprah’s program.

In my opinion, Berry has been bitten by the Oscar curse because since she won her Oscar, the movies she has acted in have not been anything to write home about.

She is getting paid big dollars for her roles but in my opinion, she needs to really take her time and pick good roles for her.

Also it is also strange why her love life is always in a turmoil. One fella after another fella after another fella.

Is it her or is it the fellas she picks to be in love with. Her relationships just do not last long.

She is one of only a few African American actresses who can land lead roles in Hollywood. Here is a question readers…..why?

I will be writing a story on this topic, the lack of lead roles for African American actresses very soon right here on “Music Inner City News Magazine”    Gordon Curvey

The other day I was in basketball heaven as a basketball junky as I watched the Hall Of Fame event on NBA TV. It was a GREAT event to watch.

Among the folks going in this year was the “The Dream Team” of the 1992 Olympics that included Karl Malone, Magic Johnson, Micheal Jordan, Patrick Ewing, Scottie Pippin, Charles Barkley and others. And the 1960 Olympic team that included the great Jerry West and “The Big O” Oscar Roberson.

Going in as players included Malone and Pippin and WNBA legend Cynthia Cooper, and former Seattle Sonic, the late Dennis “DJ” Johnson. Johnson was represented by his brother and wife.

Johnson was a starting guard for our Sonics win they won the NBA title in 1979. Also going in as a player was the late Gus Johnson.

I think Cynthia Cooper gave the best speech. Followed by Karl Malone. Bob Hurley Sr. has had a good speech.

At least 70 Hall of Famers showed up for the ceremony in Springfield, Ilinois. It was a great seeing all the great NBA players being interviewed and watching tape of great plays made by this years group of Hall Of Famers.

Like I said, I was in basketball heaven.     Gordon Curvey

(Just getting back to work……slowly, from my SEVEN day hospital visit here in Seattle for a serious lung operation. I want to thank EVERYONE who has given me prayers and support during my sickness. As for the haters……..oh well. Still have a long way to go to recovery but God willing I am on my way. Because God is good!)

As I slowly get back to work I see that two time guest on “Music Inner City TV” here in Seattle, Fantasia has tried to commit suicide over a fella in North Carolina.

Let me say this readers. I do not want to speculate as to what happened but if you watched her reality show, Fantasia needs two things in my opinion. A hit song and …….love.

She is a very very talented singer but her career has taken a downhill dive in the last few years as far as a hit cd.

I hope she will get her life together soon. She is too young and talented to die over a fella!!! Give me break. Again we don’t know the details so I will take a chill pill as to what really happened.

But I will leave you with this. The last time I interviewed Fantasia, she was in her limo in Miami on her way to gig to perform.

The person who put the interview together was named Mark Weinstein. I say was because Mark committed sucide a few years ago by jumping out a seven floor apartment building to his death. He was having money problems at the time.

God works in strange ways sometime folks. Let’s everyone say a prayer for Fantasia.

T.I. has had a very very interesting life in twenty or so years on earth. Jail terms, millions of cd’s sold, acting in movies and more.

No one can deny this cat has talent behind the mic and in front of the camera as a actor. T.I. can act. Unlike other rappers, he has a long career ahead of him as a entertainer. If he can stay out of trouble. The question is, can he?

I think T.I. can do wonders in going into inner city schools and talking to the youth about staying in school and staying away from guns and violence etc. Of course he has done a lot of that since his release from jail for weapons charges. He can be a tremendous role model. And you know what? What I read, he is trying to be just that. A role model kids can look up to. That is great!

Congrats to T.I. and his lady Tiny who recently tied the knot. I am happy for Tiny and T.I. By watching Tiny’s reality program, it seems she is a great lady and a great mom.

Great things are ahead for T.I. in music and in Hollywood. Let’s hope he stays out of trouble. I think he will do it. He has to many kids who are looking up to him as a role model.

Please say a prayer for me as I enter Swedish Hospital here in Seattle (Aug 4th) for lung cancer surgery. For which I am very nervous but I have to have it done.

This is a wake up call for me. I have never spent time in a hospital. I hope this operation will have me back to good health. I have to many things to do. And thanks everyone for your prayers ad concern.      Gordon Curvey/Music Inner City
