Cornball Corner: Nick Cannon vs. Eminem

File this under the lamest beef ever! Nick Corny Cannon is going "hard" on Eminem after Em dissed Cannon's meal ticket wife Mariah Carey in a new song. On “Bagpipes from Baghdad,” Em raps, “Why did we have to break up/All that I asked for was a glass of punch,” and “I want another crack at ya.” The melanin-deprived lyricist continues the diss adding, “Nick, you’ve had your fun/I’ve come to kick you in your sack of junk/Man, I could use a fresh batch of blood.” So what did Nick do? Did he spit out that razor blade he keeps under his tongue and go all Zorro on Em? Did he whoop Em's ass with a wet leather belt like Cuba Gooding's brother did to those gangstas in "Baby Boy"? Nope, Nick gets real gully and takes it....to the keyboard?!?! Nicky wrote on his blog that he felt sorry for Em since he's apparently stuck in the past, “What type of grown a** man lies about getting with a chick? Only Slim Lamey! LOL!” ***crickets chirping***
Really, Nick? This dude disses the love of your life and all you do is type "LOL!"? Wow, that's way hard. I should add though that Nick invited Em to step to him on some "grown man s***". Pardon me if I don't get my panties into a bunch over this one. Eminem was a great rapper but he's fallen off...way off. This beef screams manufactured. Did I mention Em's new album, "Relapse" is due out next week? Isn't Em's mentee 50 Cent the king of fake beefs? And sorry, but I think I could whoop Nick Cannon's skinny wangsta ass with my eyes closed. Why didn't Em go hard on someone....uh, hard? I'ma need both of them to fade to black, stat.

WB's Cornball Corner: Jackie Mason

It's Monday which means it's time for the WB's Cornball Corner. Today's post is dedicated to that musty old ass comic, Jackie Mason. The senior citizen is drawing heat for his comments about President Barack Obama. Mason was performing Thursday at the Feinstein's at Lowes Regency when he called President Obama a "schvartze". Schvartze is a Yiddish term for black. Some people booed and got up and walked out. Mason stood firm on his diss, telling TMZ, "I'm an old Jew. I was raised in a Jewish family where 'schvartze' was used." The 72-year-old went on to say, "It's not a demeaning word and I'm not going to defend myself. If it's a racist society, the white people are the ones being persecuted because they have to defend themselves." This isn't the first time Mason used the term, in 1991, he called former New York City Mayor David Dinkins "a fancy schvartze with a mustache." He later apologize when Al "Opportunist" Sharpton got in dat ass. Look, I'm not one to always cry racism, but I am noticing a trend now that we have our first African-American president. Some people are pissed and they are going to try to turn the tide on this significant accomplishment and cry foul. Plus, we all know the older you get the less filter capabiities you have. We all have that old Uncle who calls people out at the cookouts? Jackie Mason, you are the cornball of the week, weak, weak!
