According to the terms of the gift card, I could get anything I wanted, but I'd have to pay shipping. I ordered two MP3 players and paid $36.95 for the shipping, but I never received the MP3 players. I've tried calling, and they promise me they're on the way but I still haven't received anything.
Hip-Hop Rumors: Dave Chappelle Sonned? Bobby Brown & Th...
No matter who becomes President, this election year is sure to bring change in Washington. Both parties are presenting candidates who want to learn from the mistakes of the Bush years and regain America's standing throughout the world. Today, the Hip-Hop community represents an ever expanding range of backgrounds, ethnicities and experiences, so we have a responsibility to combine our vast resources to correct what may be the biggest tragedy of the last several years: the resurgence of the Vocoder. To be fair, the worst offenders actually use variations on the device like the Sonovox and Autotuner, but all of them are children of this mighty beast. Once an innocent vocal effect to help sing a song of love between a boy and his computer, the Vocoder family has since become a studio trick to cover up the fact that many of today's Pop singers can't actually sing (like, at all).

"It's essential that people understand America cannot dictate the terms of what a state will look like.
Hip-Hop Rumors: Rihanna Calls The Cops! Should Jay-Z Retire? Illseed's ...
I don't know what's going on over there. Jay-Z has his whole “this is an audio album" thing with American Gangster. Well, why not sell it on iTunes? I heard that Jay-Z only wanted to sell the album as a whole piece and that's noble. I also heard a rumor that iTunes may not go towards SoundScan numbers. If that's the case, I am sure that Jay-Z wants people to go and cop the album so he can break Elvis' record!
Did you read about it? Jay-Z is set to tie with Elvis in No. 1 albums. But I say break it since Elvis is no longer with us to make No. 1 records. Read the story here.
Hey, help Jay break that record! A win for him is a win for Hip-Hop!
Buy the American Gangster album for $9.99 and cheaper right here!
