Depzman Murdered At Fundraiser In Birmingham
This is so, so sad….R.I.P. Depz. From The Mirror:
A teenager was stabbed to death last night while attending a fundraising event for a 16-year-old friend who was killed in a knife attack exactly one year ago [Depz tribute video for his friend is above].
The 18-year-old, who has been named locally as Josh Donovan – also known as music artist Depzman- died after he was attacked outside KCs nightclub in the Selly Oak area of Birmingham shortly before 11pm.
He was at the nightclub attending an event in honour of Kyle Sheehan, 16, who was stabbed to death in September last year. The fundraiser was held to raise money for a headstone to go on Kyle’s grave.
An 18-year-man has been arrested on suspicion of murder for Josh’s death after handing himself at a Birmingham police station this morning.

Chris Brown Opens Up About Anger Issues, Rihanna/Karrueche
Chris Brown sits down with Jet Magazine and speaks on his anger issues, Jay Z, Trayvon Martin and his love triangle with Rihanna & Karrueche. Read the except below.
On the media:
“The media is full of yellow journalism. A lot of things I say, they will flip it. Instead of them getting off on all the positive stuff that I do, they will bring out the negative and draw out that story.”On Jay Z:
“No disrespect, because I’m a fan, but nobody brings up the fact that [Jay Z] stabbed somebody and sold drugs. He gets a pass.”On Trayvon Martin
“I identify with Trayvon 100 percent as far as living in 2013 and still dealing with blatant racism. This generation is so used to racism that it’s normal; we don’t care. We aren’t on drugs or catching AIDS, but they still look at us as ni**as.”On anger issues:
“You have to go through the struggle before you can get to the good part. I don’t try to lash out at people, or be as mad or impulsive as I used to be. I got to the point where it’s only so much you can take from the master, you feel me? I’ve taken my fair share of lashings.”On his relationships with Karrueche Tran and Rihanna:
“Relationships are the most difficult part. That’s why I was honest with those two girls and I put out that video. My ex and I broke up because of the “situation” and she had moved on. I fell in love with another girl. Then my ex came back, so it was like, ‘What is a man to do?’ I told them both the truth. I didn’t do the sucker role.”

Netflix Uses Pirate Websites for Determining What Shows to Buy
I meant to post this when it first came out, tech site TorrentFreak posted this interesting article about Netflix’s take on piracy;
“With the purchase of series, we look at what does well on piracy sites,” Netflix Vice President of Content Acquisition, Kelly Merryman told Tweakers.
One of the shows that Netflix acquired the rights to in the Netherlands is Prison Break, since it is heavily pirated locally. “Prison Break is exceptionally popular on piracy sites,” Merryman says.
In a separate interview Netflix CEO Reed Hastings adds that his company is aware of the many people who download content without permission via torrent sites. However, this is not exclusively a bad thing, as it also creates demand for the content Netflix is offering.
“Certainly there’s some torrenting that goes on, and that’s true around the world, but some of that just creates the demand,Netflix is so much easier than torrenting. You don’t have to deal with files, you don’t have to download them and move them around. You just click and watch,” Hastings says.
