NEWS: CHIRAQ SOUNDTRACK SUBMISSION HANDLER DJ SLUGO FIRED

“Hello unfortunately I may have lost my submission privileges for making a very bad decision in trying to charge Chicago artist for an opportunity to submit music for this film… This is not the way Spike Lee nor his team operates and I take full responsibility for my bad decision. I am doing everything in my power to fix this problem with Mr Lee and his team so that the artist submissions that I have in my email are not punished for my wrong doings… Please forgive me for my actions and I hope that I can fix this and somehow get your submission to their staff. Again I ask that you forgive my poor decision making!!! Please hold me and only me responsible for this issue what I did was in no way professional and whatever punishment Mr Lee wants to hand down to me I will accept it and ask him to please not hold it against any Chicago artist period!!!
I will keep all of you guys emails and songs stored and turn them over to him if he allows me too!!!

-Slugo”

NEWS: PHOTOS REVEAL MORE ACTIONS OF DISGRACED CHICAGO POLICE OFFICERS

The Chicago Police Department tried to hide this photo in which former Officers Timothy McDermott and Jerome Finnigan hold rifles while posing with an unidentified black suspect wearing antlers. A Cook County judge declined to seal the appalling photo, and the Chicago Sun Times has published it for the first time.
Federal prosecutors gave the photo, believed to be taken between 1999 and 2003, to the Chicago Police Department in 2013. As a result McDermott (right) was fired by the police board in a narrow 5-4 vote. Finnigan had already left the department, as he was sentenced two years prior to 12 years in jail for leading a crew of crooked cops in a string of robberies and home invasions.

SPORTS: TENSION BETWEEN CHICAGO BULLS STAR BACK COURT

Rose was never asked directly why he disappeared when his team needed him most, but sources tell 670 The Score that a common NBA problem affected the Bulls at the worst possible time – two alpha dogs and only one basketball. It looked strange when wing Jimmy Butler kept flashing to Rose’s side of the floor, calling for the ball, as the Bulls’ offense was drying up. Rose was all too happy to oblige instead of waving Butler off and taking charge, either resetting the called play or taking his man – often the undrafted Matthew Dellavedova – hard to the rim for at least a likely foul.
Sources describe a passive-aggressive reaction from Rose that was the culmination of tensions building in recent weeks with Butler’s emergence as a primary scorer. Butler is very aware that he won his bet on himself and is poised to reap the reward of a maximum contract from the Bulls, whether or not it takes an offer sheet from another club in restricted free agency this summer. Butler’s emergence was validated by the NBA’s Most Improved Player Award, and he’s now feeling every bit the star, with all that entails.
Where Tom Thibodeau was through all of this is unknown, but that this dynamic was allowed to play out isn’t surprising for a coach so entirely focused on what happens when his team doesn’t have the ball. Defensive issues are noticed immediately and corrected, with timeouts, assignment changes or substitutions. On offense for Thibodeau, not so much. Whoever replaces Thibodeau soon must solve this issue right away, because Rose and Butler will soon account for $36 million next year and $38 million the year after, making them the NBA’s most expensive backcourt.

HIP-HOP! Every since i can remember music was all I knew growing up. Not to say that's all my music is about but as far as what brought me into the music world it was most definitely HIP-HOP Fly Boi F.A.M.E.
2. What inspired you to become a serious about your craft?
Even though I am a 80's baby music from artist like Jay-Z, Fabolous, Jadakiss and Lloyd Banks kind of made me think like "I can do this."

3. Rather dead or alive what artist would be a dream collaboration for you?
My dream collab would be with Fab, Kiss, and Meek...you didn't say I had to choose one.
4. How do you deal with writers block?
I'm not gonna lie I roll one up and just let the beat play. As it comes it comes but when I can't think of anything I just step away from it for a minute and just let my mind take a rest so I can have some fresh thoughts.
5. Any projects, singles or videos we should be on the lookout for this year?
As far as new projects coming up I working on a EP called "Its My Time" but I thinking about dropping a mixtape to get yall ready for me. I do have a couple of singles I'm working on right now with videos to follow so keep a look out and a ear to the streets for all my new ish on the rise.
6. Where do you see yourself within this industry 3-5 years from now?
Where do I see myself within the industry 3-5 years from now? Finally getting the recognition that's been overlooked for this long and put in a position to make sure the MUSIC WORLD knows exactly who FLY BOI F.A.M.E. is. I know that the only way I will make that happen is by putting my all in this and never quitting!

NEWS: HUNDREDS LINE UP FOR CHIRAQ CASTING CALL

At least 350 people lined up outside of St. Sabina Academy in the Auburn Gresham neighborhood Saturday morning for an open casting call for Spike Lee's "Chiraq" film. The casting call began at 10 a.m., but people started lining up as early as 4 a.m. in the hopes of landing a role as an extra in the film.
Filming hasn't yet begun, but Lee has already caused controversy in Chicago. While many of those at the casting call believe the film will bring jobs and money to the Englewood neighborhood as well as highlight the problem of violence for a bigger audience, others have taken offense to the film's title, including Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Ald. Will Burns (4th).

SPORTS: BLACKHAWKS SWEEP AND ELIMINATE MINNESOTA WILD

The Chicago Blackhawks completed their sweep of the Minnesota Wild with a 4-3 win on Thursday night, advancing to the Western Conference Final for the third year in a row and the fifth time in seven years. Corey Crawford was solid in net, Patrick Kane scored another big goal, and the Blackhawks eliminated the Wild in the playoffs. Pretty much business as usual in the NHL. But it certainly wasn't easy for the Blackhawks in the end.

SPORTS: DERRICK ROSE GAME WINNING BUZZER BEATER GIVES BULLS SERIES LEAD

With less than five seconds in regulation, Derrick Rose nails the desperation triple off the glass to win game 3 over the Cavaliers.
Almost 26 years to the day that Michael Jordan hit his famous "The Shot" over Craig Ehlo, Rose supplied buzzer-beating dramatics with a banked 3-pointer over Tristan Thompson.
Rose also posted 30 points, seven rebounds and seven assists while thoroughly outplaying a slowed Kyrie Irving, who revealed he's playing through a foot injury.

NEWS: HIGH TAXES TURNING FOREIGN INVESTORS AWAY FORM ILLINOIS

Companies are turned off by the state's high taxes, its aging infrastructure and its lack of vocational training for the next generation of skilled workers, according to a survey of countries released by the state Monday.
The survey focused on 10 nations that are the state's largest trading partners and was aimed at getting an independent assessment of the state's competitiveness, according to Gov. Bruce Rauner's office, which conducted the survey.
