There’s just 20 days left until Jesus puts on his red fat suit, dyes his beard white, and drinks a bottle of vodka in an effort to rosy his inexplicably anglicized, middle-eastern cheeks before delivering presents under the guise of Santa Claus on Christmas Eve. Per usual, a flying reindeer…
Breezy’s back! After about a week without degradation and demoralization at the rate of 140 characters or less per insult, Chris Brown has reactivated his Twitter account. And he’s on the hunt for a new woman to textually batter. Brown originally fled Twitter on November 25 after promising to “shit”…
It doesn’t matter who you are today so long as you never forget who you were back in the day. And in Crossfade’s case, that was a horny 14-year-old chamaco trying to dry-hump a fine Cubanita at Hot Wheels to the sounds of DJ Laz-produced Miami bass while her abuelita…

Rick Ross’s MMG Tour at Fillmore Miami Beach December 5
“Pink” may be Steven Tyler’s “fav-o-rite co-lor, but the jury’s still out on whether he’s down with brown (skin). Current American Idol judge Nicki Minaj thinks that the former Idol judge and Aerosmith frontman is a racist for assuming that she’d send Bob Dylan “to the cornfield” if he were…
We’ve all been there. And now we totally realize that two months’ worth of rolling balls was a bad idea. But shit … It was fun. And drugs are what your 20s are for, right? DJ Laz did it. “When I was 27 or 28, I did Ecstasy for about…

Have y’all ever asked a woman to “leave them teeth out” while performing oral and then called her a “hoe” [sic]? Neither have we. ‘Cause Crossfade ain’t no crude dickheads like Chris Brown and know full well that every blowie should have a little bit of teeth have far more…
