Usually we like to showcase these on the Saturday but seeing most folks were celebrating their Independence, how bout a little TWTW smack dab in your face as you re-enter reality? Unsurprisingly, the King of Pop still dominated headlines as Phonte preached some posthumous justice and his daddy…well…his daddy ain’t shit.

Sadly, MJ wasn’t the only thing D.O.A. news we had to deal as Vibe magazine and Steve McNair both checking out earlier than expected.  But life has it ups and downs and last week had more than enough positivity to help brace for the blows.
