WHITEY FORD SINGS SOME SMACK
The white-boy rapper battle heats up, as Whitey Ford launches an attack on Slim Shady's home turf. According to MTV.com, Everlast provoked a riot Friday (2/2) during a concert at St. Andrews Hall in Detroit by verbally assaulting hometown hero Eminem. "I love Detroit, despite some of the people that have come out of here," said Ev, before slamming Em and his side project D-12, along with Limp Bizkit and Smash Mouth. Everlast challenged Em-affiliated audience members to take the mic. Several men then rushed the stage, prompting Everlast to pick up a guitar in self-defense. Audience members hurled bottles and chairs, forcing the show to end. Eminem's next concert stop is Tuesday (2/6) in Poughkeepsie, NY, where he plans to dis the co-eds of Vassar College, in hopes of being pelted with sports bras and soccer jerseys.
"I NEED" A LAWYER
While country princess LeAnn Rimes is urging fans to shun her latest release, her record label and producer are speaking out on their own. Last week, the singer posted a message on her website apologizing for "I Need You," which she claims was released by Curb Records without her input. Said Rimes: "It consists largely of unfinished material and songs that didn't make other albums... I want to make abundantly clear to you that this album is not a reflection of myself as an artist, but is solely the conception of Curb Records, and for that I am truly and deeply sorry." In a counter-release on Monday (2/5), Curb Records said: "We believe that Le Ann Rimes' newly released ‘I Need You' album is the best album that she has ever recorded." In addition, Rimes' father/producer, Wilbur, refutes his daughter's dismay, stating: "This album has great sentimental meaning to me because it was the last project that my daughter and I worked on together, and I am so proud of all of my daughter's accomplishments." Rimes had previously filed suit against the label, her manager and her father. In a related story, "Coyote Ugly" is an accurate reflection of the cultural moment.
