...long, rambling rant posted on a website eerily reflected the angry populist sentiments that have swept the country in the past year. In it, a Joe Stack inveighed against intrusive Big Brother government, corrupt corporate giants, irrational taxes, as well as the "puppet" George Bush.

There is a collective swagger into Diddy's Vegas haunt, Vanity Nightclub, in which the artist formerly known as Puff Daddy appears to lick a fat stack of poker chips. Around the 2:40 mark Jadakiss raps an elegant ode to the eponymous beverage, "the best premium vodka ever," and we're sold. Kinda like Chester French.
