...talent on the mic is indisputable. “Tha Carter III” is backed by a roster of some of the hottest (and most expensive) producers alive: David Banner, Kanye West, The Alchemist. All together, a majority of the tracks on the album are hot, whether for the club or for a stereo. So here’s the big question: if hip-hop is truly dead, as Nas tells us, does Dr. Carter have the schooling to revive it and stitch it back together? Who’s the best rapper of all time? Most people will...
...these movie legends are being paid millions to pull a simple trick on you. But at that point, your ten dollars are already spent. Immerse yourself in canned, simplistic dialogue and predictable plot twists, then marvel at De Niro and Pacino’s flabby, AARP exteriors and the hot forensic scientist babes who are inexplicably attracted to them!

The continued success of Girl Talk’s boundless...
...strikes on suspected militants by pilotless drones. Pentagon officials had suggested in recent weeks that the U.S. would be "testing" the new Pakistani government by stepping up its attacks in western Pakistan to gauge Islamabad's reaction. Previously, U.S. actions had been been limited to launching missile strikes or hot pursuits into Pakistani territory without the consent of the Pakistani government. The Sept. 3 attack was the first significant cross-border U.S. ground strike without prior Pakistani approval - a change approved by President Bush in July. That raid, which Pakistan's military says killed up to 20 people including civilians...
