Family Friend Being Brought Under Investigation In Tameka Raymond's Son's Jet Ski Accident


Tameka Raymond's son Kyle remains hospitalized after his jet ski accident this weekend on Lake Lanier in Atlanta. And it's being reported that the man on the jet ski that hit Kyle was a family friend. And he is now under investigation.

Tameka has also reportedly spoken out with brief words about the status of her little boy. Details inside...

Radar Online reports that they spoke to Tameka in the midst of Kyle fighting for his life at Children’s Healthcare at Egelston Hospital in Atlanta. When based about his critical status, after being declared "brain dead," Tameka allegedly told the site these simple words:

"He’s bad.”

On an unconfirmed Facebook account claiming to be Tameka Raymond's, these words appeared:

“Kyle, You are strong.. You'll be saved I know it. I love you my baby. I need all #Prayers for my son! thanks you everybody!”

Reports have also surfaced that an investigation has been launched into family friend Jeffery Hubbard. He was named as the man who was driving the jet ski that struck Kyle, who was riding an innertube alongside a 15-year-old girl. The NY Daily News reports:

Family friend Jeffrey S. Hubbard of Atlanta is under investigation for the Friday afternoon collision with the 11-year-old boy who was riding in an inner tube on Georgia’s Lake Lanier, an official told the Daily News.

“Basically, a pontoon was pulling two juveniles on an inner tube, and the watercraft ran over the top of them,” Sgt. Mike Burgamy with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources told The News.

He said two of his rangers witnessed what appeared to be a tragic accident.

Alcohol was not a factor, and investigators do not believe it was a mechanical malfunction, he said.

Both young victims – the other being an unidentified 15-year-old girl – were wearing life jackets, he said.

Run DMC, Set To Do Their First Performance In 10 Years in Austin, Texas


Joseph "Run" Simmons and Darryl "DMC" McDaniels will perform as Run-DMC for the first time in nearly a decade at the seventh annual Fun Fun Fun Fest, set for November 2-4 in Austin, Texas.

Simmons and McDaniels officially retired the Run-DMC moniker in November 2002, just days after founding member Jason "Jam Master Jay" Mizell was shot and killed in his Queens recording studio. Ten years later, his death remains unsolved, and in the decade since, the relationship between the two surviving members became strained. They famously decided against performing as Run-DMC when the group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2009.

But in a show of solidarity — and as a way of marking the ten-year anniversary of Jay's murder — Simmons and McDaniels will not only headline the Fun Fun Fun main stage, but are working with organizers to donate a portion of the proceeds from the festival to the JMJ Foundation for Music, which is dedicated to providing access to the arts for children and young adults. Last year, DMC remembered his slain friend to MTV's RapFix blog, saying, "Jason made the deejay rock n' roll ... and he died where he grew up, trying to take his people to a better place."

Run-DMC join previously announced acts like Atlas Sound, Black Moth Super Rainbow, Against Me!, Danny Brown and David Cross at the 2012 Fun Fun Fun Fest. The full lineup will be announced Thursday (July 12), the same day three-day passes go on sale through the festival's official site.

2 Chainz Releases New Album Cover


2 Chainz rocks two chains on the simple cover of his upcoming album Based on a T.R.U. Story. Due August 14, the Atlanta rapper’s Def Jam debut features the Drake-assisted single “No Lie,” plus an appearance from Nicki Minaj. With all the buzz behind him i'm sure this album will be worth the money and it's surprising that in this time of countless features that he only has two on his album but i guess 2 Chainz stands alone.

Love & Hip Hop Atlanta's Mimi Releases Statement About The Show and Where Her Relationship Stands With Stevie J


Now if LHHATL is your new guilty pleasure as it is mine you know all about Mimi Faust and her dyfunctional relationship with producer Stevie J. Well last night the shit hit the fan when Joseline, Stevie's artist and side chick sat down to have a meeting with Mimi and told her all about how she's pregnant with Stevie's baby. So of course Mimi was in denial based upon Joseline's stripper past but when Stevie came to the meeting with the pregnancy test in hand there was no denying it anymore and she left out overwhelmed while Stevie ran after Joseline not her the woman he has been with for 15 YEARS.

Since the show has debuted apparently Mimi's eyes have finally opened up and she sees that she is worth so much more and she has released a statement via twitter last night expressing how she feels about all that has gone down. Read it below:

"Doing the show was a blessing and a curse. I’d still be in the dark and clueless had I not done it. The downside is dealing with the truth.

It hurts to find out the man u loved so much was capable of doing the most but I’ve been given the gift of clarity. My new beginning begins

My only wish is for my daughter to learn from my mistakes and know her worth and never experience what I’ve been thru. I love her sooo much

But at the end of the day a very dysfunctional relationship produced the most pure love Ive ever experienced. My daughter. So no regrets

I just want to thank all my followers for coming on this rollercoaster ride with me. I appreciate all the kind words. Seriously. Much love

To all the women in dysfunctional relationships- don’t be embarrassed… Just learn the necessary lessons, gain strength and move forward."
