Celebrity Justice
So You Wonder Why They Call it Rap?

So you think you got troubles? Rapper Beanie Sigel has just been thrown in the pokey -- again.

Sigel was sentenced to three months in prison for giving his probation officers a fake a urine sample. Oh yeah, he had also tested positive five times this month for Xanax and Percocet.

Sigel, who, thank God, changed his name from Dwight Grant (that's sooo white collar), was in the middle of serving a six-month term in a halfway house for violating a prior supervised release. Even if you aren't following this precisely, you're getting the point.

Oh yeah, in 2004, he was sentenced to a year in prison for weapons and drug charges. But Sigel had some good news, too -- in 2005 he was acquitted of attempted murder charges.

If your kid stayed out too late last night, don't come down too hard on her. Things could be worse.

17. Yeah, It's called rap because they can't sing worth a flip. I hate and despise rap music of ALL kinds.

20. rap is a form of music just like any other kind, i dont like seeing people being racist about the issue, the fact that he's black and a rapper doesnt matter. all that matters is he broke the law just like everyone else does everyday when we drink underage or smoke pot or run a pointless stop sign, so everyone needs to stop blaming crime and drugs on black people cuz regardless of what music we like or perform or what color our skin is we all do the same bad things. yeah hes mad dumb for what he did but who freakin cares anyway?

21. What a loser. Rap and hip-hop are dead anyway. How many times can you listen to a re-hash of the exact same crap? "I've got more money than you. I f**k more women than you. I'll kill you if I don't like what you have to say. I'm a bigger badass than you." IT'S STALE --- IT'S STUPID --- IT'S DEAD!!!

22. Whenever I see a black celeb pictured on TMZ I run to the comments section to read all the comments from the little racists stuck in little towns trying to watch the cool people and comment. These are the same people who defend Richie Sambura and the other rock queer that I have never heard of who performs at coffee houses.

You people truly need lives.

24. I don't understand a guy whose ambition appears to be self-destruction. Fool.

25. Allan: "You want a Fresca with a Darvon?"
Linda: "Unless you have apple juice."
Allan: "Apple juice and Darvon is fantastic together!"
Linda: "Have you ever had Librium and tomato juice?"
Allan: "No, I haven't personally, but another neurotic tells me they're unbelievable."
That's MUCH better than Xanax and Percocet, fool!

28. The_Icon - If you are going to throw white musicians names around, at least learn how to spell them.

29. who cares how you spell their names???? he has a point. i can deal with someone who is harming their own self. i haave no respect for an idiot who drives drunk with their kid in the car, white or black. white people only bring race up when a black person gets in trouble. why dont you hate on white people when they mess up?? your girls britney, paris, and lindsay are all coke sniffing whores. talk about how horrible the white race is.
