T.I. & Lil’ Duval On Trae Tha Truth’s BANNED Radio
Rapper and host Trae Tha Truth sits down with Hustle Gang head honcho T.I. and guest comedian Lil Duval for Banned Radio. During the discussion, Duval shares with Tip that he enjoys the “Kemosabe” song off the recently released G.D.O.D. compilation mixtape. After thanking Duval for the listen and pointing out that Cash Money artist Birdman is also featured on the track, the comedian states no one wants to hear Baby rap and suggests “that’s when you go get yourself a drink at the club”.
Another interesting topic tackled by Duval and T.I. is the newly announced Big Tymers reunion minus Mannie Fresh. Trae The Truth also purposes the question to both guests about what were some of the more memorable items each can remember purchasing when they started pulling in big cash. Tip shares some of his past expenses on high-end brand name couture like Versace, Coogi, and Dolce and Gabbana while Duval recalls spending on an old box Chevy with 30 inch rims and a banging audio system.
Ice Cube’s Tour Bus Pulled Over For Speeding
From TMZ:
If this is NWA, then the “A” stands for acceleration … because Ice Cube’s tour bus got pulled over for speeding this afternoon in Durham, North Carolina.
A rep for the Granville County Sheriff’s Department wouldn’t say how fast the bus was gunning it along I-85 North, but the speed limit on that road is 70 mph … so the driver really must’ve been hauling ass.
But lucky for him, we’re told the driver was let off with a warning — no tickets issued — and Ice Cube was nice enough to get out and sign autographs for a bunch of the officers.

LIVE STREAM: FIFA World Cup 2014 Qualifying – Costa Rica Vs. Panama
10PM EDT is the starting time. To get to the action, click to the next page below (or click on the above image).
If CONCACAF World Cup Qualifying ended ahead of this match, Costa Rica would be off to Brazil while Panama would be going on summer vacation.
Both sides have played five matches coming into Tuesday’s showdown in San Jose, and at the halfway point of the schedule, Costa Rica are second to the United States in The Hex with eight points—three places up on Panama, who are just two points adrift but second from bottom in the six-team table.
Panama have never progressed to a World Cup finals, but never before have they had a side quite as good as this. Already they have picked up a win against Honduras and a draw at home to Mexico, and their 2-0 defeat to the United States last week was their only loss of The Hex so far.
Costa Rica, meanwhile, partook in the World Cups of 1990 (where they made the Round of 16), 2002 and 2006 and, like Panama, have lost only to the United States in the fourth round of CONCACAF qualifying.
