Nothing like catching up with old friends
So much for a 10 round fight. TSG just laid the knockout blow on Alfamega by unearthing the official transcripts from his snitching days. Ain’t no letter Alfamega can write to come back from this. Read the rest of this entry »
Apparently, the 10 day grace period Alfamega issued his former boss to respond to his letter has come and gone. True to his word, I guess, ‘Mega has now initiated his own personal holy war in the form of his 10 Round Knockout mixtape. Read the rest of this entry »

So Alfamega decides to drop off an apology letter to TI. Read the rest of this entry »
This is getting interesting.
Well, we can throw my defense of Alfamega out the window. T.I. just gave him the good ol’ “You’re Fired” Vince McMahon style. While I hate to see Read the rest of this entry »

“Hello Officer!”
We all laughed when we saw Rick Ross in the cop uniform, clean shaven and smiling with old white women. We got a chuckle out of Algernod’s squeaky clean past and the fact he’s 32 years-old acting like a damn teenager.
But this is too far. The Smoking Gun (please don’t get them confused with us) accused Alfamega of being a government snitch. Of course, this has opened the floodgates for speculation that Mega is the reason T.I. is going to jail.
Bol commented on this issue saying that TSG “stays doing the kind of real investigating Hip-Hop journalists just aren’t capable of.” I’m going to have to disagree with him on that one. I’ve said it before and I’ve said it again, this is not journalism. What TSG is doing is putting people’s lives at risk. Yes, this is investigative, but how is it journalistic? What merit does this really serve? Read the rest of this entry »

In the wacky world of Hip-Hop some artists are known more for scrappin’ than for rappin’. These predators rarely drop albums — music taking a backseat to their aggressive antics — but they make the rap game a lot more colorful by keeping the pretenders in check. With their genuine street credibility, prison-yard tactics and itchy trigger-fingers, the Goonies of Hip-Hop have created an entertaining niche in the genre. Here are eight in particular who have already left their mark.
Alfamega
When you look up the word “goon” in the rap dictionary, you’ll find those now-infamous pictures of T.I.’s Grand Hustle muscle Alfamega spazzin’ out on Shawty Lo’s crew at last year’s Dirty Awards. In those photos, especially the one where he’s smiling as he tussles with an overmatched cop, you can tell that Alfamega was having a good time; he shrugged-off a blast of pepper spray to the face like it was spearmint Binaca. With a lead-fisted shot to the dome, Mega left a Shawty Lo associate snoozing on the floor during T.I. and Grand Hustle’s performance at the Awards show.
The televised incident may earn him another bid in the bing, but his commissary should be stacked for a job well done. Aspiring rappers take note: It doesn’t matter how well you rhyme, how many chicks you bag and how much jewelry you rock. Your crew isn’t complete without a ninja like Mega in the stable.
Trick Trick
What separates Detroit’s own Trick Trick from most of his contemporaries is that he actually put an album out (a decent one at that); an impressive feat for a professional goon. His latest LP, The Villain, is in stores now. But although the album features heavy-hitters like Ice Cube, Eminem and a posthumous appearance by D-12’s Proof, it’s a mere footnote in Trick Trick’s untouchable gangster resume.

In a week, marked by retail sales & tryptophan, we the people were either be actively active or amused spectators as the worlds of music & entertainment provided the fun.
Alfamega whooped ass & took names @ The Dirty Awards.
It used to be that Lil Wayne was a the designated comment-starter around these parts. Currently, 808′s and Heartbreak holds that crown firmly.
Common sprung a surprise leak(s) as tracks started appearing out of nowhere. Jimmy Jones, affectionately referred to as “Jenny Jones” by Teef, got some Read the rest of this entry »
Well, both sides have spoken.
Lo has given his version of the events. Alfamega has given his along with an apology.
All I know @ this point is…
A.) There’s one picture of orange shirt dude, reportedly Lo’s brother…and he’s standing lol. Read the rest of this entry »
Mundy was right but apparently Carlos & Co. didn’t take heed as they proceeded to get into fisticuffs with Alfamega.

Keeping with the P$C theme of things, the Grand Hustle muscle enlists the some mercenaries to assist with the remix.
Two questions though. Read the rest of this entry »
Words by Matthew Mundy
Every once in a while a rapper will come around that positively, absolutely, scares the shit out of me.
I’m sure all of you know what I’m talking about – the dude who looks as if he would literally rip someone’s head off in a fight, Sub-Zero fatality style, if they were angry enough (which he undoubtedly would be, because his heart pumps bone-crunching terror juice). For those taking notes, a common affliction of scary-ass rappers is the inability to ever, ever, ever make a crossover song for the ladies. Unless that lady is Snoop.
Alfa Mega is that rapper for me right now. Read the rest of this entry »
