According to Hip Hop DX, a photographer claims to have been chased by bodyguards, thrown to the ground, and have his camera broken because he took a picture of Rihanna and Chris Brown together. The $1 million he is suing for will cover the $3,000 camera, the photos he lost, injuries, and emotional distress. lol.

“No Homo is the gayest phrase ever created”
Add-2 from HIP Hop DX talks about the influence of hip hop culture and the effect certain phrases and trends have on society and pop culture.
Add-2 on the phrase “No Homo”:
“The phrase is of course “No Homo” (and all its variations). This is a phrase I never used and hoped would have been dead and gone a long time ago, its something I thought was the most suspect phrase for a man to say anyway. The reason I say that is because according to people who use it, its basically a way to say “I just said some real gay shit but this covers it up so that you know I’m not gay”. But having to say that just to justify your lack of homosexual intentions shows that you might have some homosexual thoughts since obviously the first thing you thought of was how suspect you sound after you said whatever you said.”

Stuff White People Like: Black Music Black People Don’t Listen To Anymore
stuffwhitepeoplelike.com has updated with another thing that white people like: Black music that black people don’t listen to anymore. Here is an excerpt:
“If you are good at concealing laughter and contempt, you should ask a white person about “Real Hip Hop.” They will quickly tell you about how they don’t listen to “Commercial Hip Hop” (aka music that black people actually enjoy), and that they much prefer “Classic Hip Hop.”
“I don’t listen to that commercial stuff. I’m more into the Real Hip Hop, you know? KRS One, Del Tha Funkee Homosapien, De La Soul, Wu Tang, you know, The Old School.”
Calling this style of music ‘old school’ is considered an especially apt name since the majority of people who listen to it did so while attending old schools such as Dartmouth, Bard, and Williams College.”
