Yelawolf talks Machine Gun Kelly "Beef"
Catfish Billy has some words for MGK over and tells him, "If you're feeling froggy, jump."
Yelawolf recently caught up with Bootleg Kev to respond to some recent comments made by Machine Gun Kelly about the line from his Shady 2.0 cypher during the 2011 BET Hip Hop Awards, "Plenty of white boys to pick from this year/But before you pick a pepper you better pick up your heater." The Alabama rapper said that he wasn't actually referring to the Bad Boy signee with those lines at that he's catching feelings over nothing. At the same time, however, if MGK wants to go to war, he'd be more than willing to oblige.
"He's being sensitive. He thinks I'm talking about him [when I'm not]," he explained. "The best thing that he could do is if he has a problem or if he has something he needs to say to me, just say my name, dog. This is Hip Hop, if you've got something you want to rap about, just rap about it. At the end of the day - this is the God's honest truth, on the Bible - I haven't heard any of his songs...just because a rapper is white, I don't feel the need to attack them; part of my crew is white rappers...that's not at all my aim...at the end of the day, it could all be boiled down to records...put it on wax...Machine Gun Kelly, if want it, come get it. Drop your verse, do whatever you want to [do]. If you want to take it there, we can take it there - and that goes for anybody else, too. If you're feeling froggy, jump mothafucka."
He added, "I've worked really hard for a long time to create a style and a sound that's all my own taken from the inspirations that I've pulled from, from the Beastie [Boys] and Redman, and as far a live shows go Cypress Hill and Triple 6 [Mafia], just trying to give a rebirth to that energy, so I heard there were some [comments]...after the BET Awards...[where Kelly] was going on about how no one needs to be doing [crowd surfing and other stage antics]...like, 'We started this, when no one else was headbanging, we were headbanging.' I really was in awe, I couldn't believe he had the audacity to say that. Not even on my behalf - take me out of the equation - this is Hip Hop, man. This music is very broad. I have people in my crew that are straight hardcore [music fans] that came off of the [Vans] Warped Tour...[and] they were offended."

Why Soulja Boy's Arrest should cause concern
Although I have never been a fan of Soulja Boy’s music, I have been an enthusiastic supporter of the infectious entrepreneurial, “do-it-yourself” spirit he has instilled amongst his legion of fans – the majority of which belong to Generation Z, “The Net Generation.” With fame, and the rapid rise of DeAndre Way’s career, however, he has had to face a considerable amount of scrutiny and condemnation, in regards to a series of imprudent personal decisions that have been revealed under a bright, public spotlight.
On October 18, 2011, the 21-year rapper and four others were charged with felony possession of marijuana and guns – of a “substantial amount” – after being pulled over by police for a traffic violation in Temple, Georgia. The arrest fell exactly a week before the DVD release of his mini-documentary, Soulja Boy: The Movie, which was directed by Academy Award™ nominated director Peter Spirer (Notorious B.I.G. Bigger than Life, Tupac Shakur: Thug Angel). Unfortunately, in response to the arrest, all pending press activities were postponed indefinitely.
What disturbs me the most about DeAndre’s recent arrest lay not in his decision to travel (and apparently carry) illegal drugs and weapons consciously, but rather the implied “normalcy” – as a bonafide member of America’s economic “upper crust” – to engage in such actions. On the other hand, from a purely legalistic perspective, I am dismayed by the disproportionate search of vehicles owned by Black drivers during traffic stops by law enforcement officers, which ultimately leads to racially-imbalanced percentages in arrests and rates of incarceration.
[SIDENOTE: Contacts Between Police and the Public, 2008, a special report by the Bureau of Justice Statistics: (1) “Black drivers were about three times as likely as white drivers and about two times as likely as Hispanic drivers to be searched during a traffic stop.” (2)“During traffic stops in 2008, about 57.7% of searches of the driver only and 60.0% of searches of the vehicle only were conducted with the driver’s consent.” (3)“About 36.1% of drivers who were only physically searched and 20.7% of drivers who only had their vehicle searched believed police had a legitimate reason to do so.”]
According to Temple Police spokeswoman officer Dana Rampy, five ounces of marijuana were found in DeAndre’s transport vehicle. Considering the quantity cited by law enforcement officials, this unfortunate incident alludes to more than simple possession for “recreational” usage and instead a spotlight on frequent “illicit” usage by the artist and members of his entourage.
Above and beyond these concerns, I am deeply troubled by the felony record that has also been attached to Soulja Boy’s “permanent record.” (Historically, he is simply an addendum to a long list of fellow rappers – from DMX to T.I. to Wiz Khlaifa, and Big Boi – all of whom have been charged for the possession of controlled substances or related paraphernalia.) In light of this nagging legacy and its enduring presence in contemporary times, what does the Hip-Hop community – whether membership be defined as a producer or consumer of the culture – have to say about the ever-increasing number of its visible “role models” – even if they do not see themselves as such – being disenfranchised within socio-political frameworks?
If Hip-Hop aims to be an active and powerful agent of “undefined” change, then what steps its community take to safeguard and empower its young men who serve as “mainstream” representatives for countless millions? Who, pray-tell, is guiding and mentoring the current generation of entertainers?

Meek Mills show gets shut down by police(boooo) from 5 different stations
Police from five different departments were called in to disburse a rowdy crowd that had gathered to see Meek Mill in Connecticut over the weekend.
Meek hit the stage at Club Lush, a venue that holds about 600 people in Danbury, Connecticut.
According to local reports, thousands of people came out to see the rapper, who was extremely late for his performance.
At least a dozen police cars from five different districts were called in to quell a number of disturbances that had broken out as a result of the rapper’s tardiness.
“There was a huge crowd there to hear a hot performer,” Mayor Mark Boughton told the Stamford Advocate. “From my understanding, he was really late. This was a very popular entertainer who belongs in a venue that can accommodate 2,000 or 3,000 people, not 600. Throw in alcohol and that age group…”
Several people were arrested, while two people were taken to the hospital for minor injuries.
In more positive news, Meek Mill hosted a coat drive in his hometown of Philadelphia over the weekend as well.
The rapper was at 24th and Diamond where he and several associates passed out coats to those in need, in preparation for the cold weather.
“Wen people do s**t for da hood dey wanna call the news for publicity. We just put in da work on da low,” Meek Mill tweeted today (October 23).
Every Kanye West sample ever
Every Kanye West sample? EVER? Somebody else will need to give this validity, but its a good look! I think these are the singles or something.
Wale, Rick Ross and the Realities of Rock Star Living by; Biba Adams
The fast and furious lifestyles of rappers, DJs, producers, their teams, journalists, and others in the music industry don’t leave a lot of time for focusing on good health. Lately, the pressures of the industry have been taking a toll on some of the top names in the game, and hopefully, scaring the rest of us into paying more attention to diet and physical fitness.
Just last week, Rick Ross, leader of the Maybach Music Group (MMG) movement, suffered two seizures in the same day aboard two separate airplanes. While rappers like Ross may seem invincible on the mic, the realities of managing health concerns, especially those that disproportionately affect Black men, hit them hard, sometimes in the primes of their careers.
AllHipHop.com asked MMG rapper Wale recently about the difficulties of balancing hard work and hard partying with healthy decisions on a daily basis:
AllHipHop.com: When it comes to rap artists, how do you or should you take care of your health?
Wale: There’s no format to it. I think that’s the bad part. A lot of entertainers don’t really know how to take care of themselves. Nobody really showed us to do it the right way. Everybody is not so good with going to the gym or to the doctor. A lot of us as artists are not really people-persons; a lot of people take a lot of drugs or smoke a lot to deal with it. A lot of rock n’ roll people, they took a lot of drugs because it’s a lot of questions and a lot of pressure and a lot of repetitive interviews. It’s a lot sh*t you gotta put up with.
Having a show every night, and having the same energy and the same vibe to perform the same show that you have been performing 40 nights in a row, a lot of people can’t do that sober. That’s why a lot of artists don’t follow a template. We have a different lifestyle than the average person, and it gets difficult sometimes.
Common new track "Blue Sky"
Common just dropped his new single "Blue Sky" off his upcoming ninth studio album "The Dreamer, The Believer."
He is supposed to be filming the official video tomorrow, but for now has released a lyric video. This new track was produced by No.ID who also produced all of Common's early albums in the 90's. No.ID has produced songs for everyone from Jay-Z to Rihanna to Drake.
"Blue Sky" samples from Electric Light Orchestra's "Mr. Blue Sky" and the song has a very Kanye West inspired flow in this "the sky's the limit" type of track.
He raps "A story of change that came with wings/ Pretty as the skyline/the sky is my eye line" and also, "Young fresh with dollars/ladies go gaga/I'm the cum lauda/top of the class/Black Wall Street so my stock will never crash."
This song is simultaneously braggadocio and up-lifting. Common recently did an interview with Power 106 where he describes this new song as "the essence of hip hop, but with a new sound...It's that good hip-hop, that good music."
Common is one of those guys that can do everything. While other rappers talk about how they are "running this game" or whatever lingo they use to describe being awesome, Common actually does it.
He took a bit of a hiatus from music lately so he can act, model, write a book and stop by the White House. Just business as usually for the multi-talented artist. He starred opposite Queen Latifah in "Just Wright" and will appear in the upcoming AMC series, "Hell on Wheels" a new series premiering November 6 about the building of the transcontinental railroad where he plays a freed slave.
Oh, he was also invited to the White House in May by Michelle Obama herself to appear at a poetry reading. However he got flack for it from conservative political pundits who said he was too edgy. No matter, because Common was too busy writing his first memoir, "One Day It'll All Make Sense," which he released in September.
Did I mention that he modeled for The Gap in 2006? Yah, it would be a waste of that face if he didn't dabble in print work at some point.
Of all his different career paths he said, "[I'm just] trying to work and get nice things out there." Awww.
Yes this is Christina Aguilera and not Roseanne with a blond wig
So obviously leotards are the costume of choice for all pop stars nowadays. Beyonce, Britney, Rihanna, Madonna, Gaga...they all wear leotards when they perform, but there are some artists that just don't know that they can't pull off that look. Christina Aguilera is one of those people.
Aguilera's weight has taken more ups and downs than a rollercoaster. She's currently in the "up" part. Christina Aguilera was one of the headliners at the Michael Jackson Tribute concert this weekend in Wales and shocked audiences with her wardrobe choice.
She wore fishnet stockings, a black leotard with corset and a tiny jacket that didn't give her any coverage. The outfit was very unflattering and just too tight. Also her blonde hair extensions looked like they were ran through the dryer and maybe a family of birds took residence in her hair. Maybe she was going for a "rock n roll" look, but It just wasn't happening for her.
Thankfully her performance of Charlie Chaplin's "Smile" was a hit. The song, a very sad song and a song that has no business being sung by someone in a leotard, was one of Michael Jackson's favorite songs.
She did change into a better outfit for her second set. She adjusted her hair, or maybe got an entirely new weave during intermission and then returned to the stage in a long sleeved black dress with a large leather belt strategically placed around her mid section.
Christina Aguilera Shows Off Fuller Figure at Michael Jackson Tribute
Still, she kind of looked like that X-Tina drag queen I saw getting on a bus in West Hollywood one time. But from the bits and pieces of youtube videos that have surfaced from the Michael Forever show, she proved she could sang! Besides, when you are one of 40,000 people at that show, most likely you were sitting approximately 1 mile from the stage and had no idea that Aguilera no longer looks like a pixie stick.
Can someone get Chris Crocker to make a youtube video for "LEAVE CHRISTINA ALONE"? I think she needs one.
However, Christina's curves weren't the only things causing drama at the show. After the Black Eyed Peas and Chris Brown were cut from the show. Jennifer Hudson was scheduled to perform up until the day of the show, backing out the same day. The only clues into J-Hud's departure was what she wrote on Twitter, "To my uk fans that were coming to the mj show in wales. I will no longer be attending due to major production issues."
Chris Brown and Bow Wow drop atleast 15k on strippers
Chris Brown and Bow Wow visited a strip club last week in Miami and spent at least 15K on several strippers.
Welcome to America Chris Brown. We had been wondering when you were going to start making it rain over scantily clad women. He already has a mugshot, so he kind of worked backwards actually, it was only a matter of time before the 22 year-old R&B star was on the receiving end of a lap dance from a woman named "Bubbles."
Brown and Bow Wow stopped by the King of Diamonds strip club in Miami last Wednesday - the largest strip club on the planet - and sources at the club say that the boys gave each dancer $5000 in tips. They gave at least three girls that very generous paycheck.
Hey, who ever said Chris Brown didn't know how to treat a woman? $5000, that's like some strippers wardrobe budget for an entire year. Do you know how many rhinestone thongs and matching nipple tassels she can buy with that?
In addition to dropping five thousand bones on one stripper, the dudes also made it rain $1 bills over the whole club. The floor was carpeted in $1 dollar bills. It was like a money tree got chopped down. It was like a rich persons carpet. It was like someone took a leaf blower to the Federal Reserve.
The dudes also bought bottles and bottles of alcohol for their entourage.
That's not the only lavish activity of the night. Brown had a two-story cake created in honor of Team Breezy. The cake was covered with photos of Chris Brown and his album artwork and was lined in Swarovski crystals.
Can you eat Swarovski crystals? Did they have to pick them off before consuming the cake? Can a rich person email me concerning the etiquette when eating Swarovski covered cakes? I guess this is a rich person problem.
Chris Brown's reps confirmed that Chris Brown was indeed at King Of Diamonds strip club and that it was the after party for a stop on Chris Brown's F.A.M.E tour.
I bet those strippers were glad they showed up to work that day.
This is not the first time that Chris Brown was the subject of strip club rumors. While this incident at Kong of Diamonds actually happened, two years ago Brown was stated to have visited a strip club in NYC where he was serenaded by 86 different strippers. However, that actually never happened, his reps shot down the allegations immediately.
"Chris never frequented a strip club while in NYC; he was at Greenhouse which is not a topless club."

Drake talks cuffin Nicki Minaj, Nicki joins Britney Spears on tour
Oh Drake, my favorite wholesome rapper from Canada with eyebrows you could hang Christmas ornaments from, has just said that he'd marry Nicki Minaj.
Drake and Nicki had a high profile romance back in 2009 right after Drake and Rihanna broke up. Drake tells Elle Magazine that even though he and Nicki are no longer together, he still says "I'd marry Nicki."
Over the years and over the course of their relationship the two always made jokes about getting married.
On Nicki’s song, “Moment 4 Life,” Drake raps that he “and Nicki Nick gettin’ married today." After those lyrics sent fans into a fit, Drake told Celebuzz that he was only "joking around" and he "never thought it would get so out of hand."
Drake, whose real name is Aubrey Graham (Woa, no wonder he changed it Drake) also jokingly tweeted, "Please refer to @nickiminaj as Mrs. Aubrey Drake Graham and don't stare at her too long. She's finally mine." Nicki tweeted back, "Yes, it's true. Drake and I tied the knot."
Apparently this was a joke, too bad nobody was laughing. Drake recalls, "My mom was actually like, 'What happened? How did you elope?' But we were just joking around. I never thought it would get so out of hand."
In his new Elle interview, the writer asked about the whole "marriage incident," Drake has now changed his tune, "I don't know if we were really pretending. I'd marry Nicki. I think Nicki would be one of the only people that would understand me at the end of all this and be able to love me."
This is in the same interview where Drake confessed that Rihanna broke his heart. "[With Rihanna, I wasn't] necessarily the rebound guy. At the time it hurt, but she didn't mean to. I'll never put that on her. I was hurt because I started to slowly understand what it was. I guess I thought it was more."
While Drake is wallowing around in love-lost for his famous ex-girls, he also gives this sad statement to the mag.
"When you're on the road and moving city to city, when someone isn't there at the end of the night, you feel empty," he confesses.
Can we get this guy a match.com account? This is the weepiest Elle interview ever. Also, Elle is a woman's magazine! This whole thing just gets more and more depressing. Is Patty Stanger available to set this guy up with Kelly Rowland or Ke$ha or something?
**Rare** LiL Wayne Interview
Lil Wayne, the cockiest rapper in the game sat down with GQ for an interview that covered everything from why he's obsessed with skateboarding, his retirement at 35 and why he hates his dad. Even though he's a rapper, he spent the majority of the GQ interview talking about skateboarding, but since I think that's bizarre, I'm just going to give you the skateboarding highlight reel and get it out of the way.
So what's the deal with the skateboarding...he's a 29 year old man for goodness sake. "I'm still a kid, because unfortunately my childhood was raped away from me because I become a star and you can't be a kid and a rapper at the same time...So I was just watching TV, and I was like, 'Yeah, I want to do that!' and I called a guy and I said, 'I want a ramp on my roof. So I put a ramp on the roof, and man, I've been skating ever since."
I guess he's a latent skateboarder, "I'm kinda mad that I had to wait 28 years to jump on a skateboard."
Ok I'm sick of talking about skateboards. So what's this thing I hear about Lil Wayne retiring at 35?
"Basically, I have been doing this for eighteen years. That's reason number one. I have accomplished all that I have set out to accomplish and more."
Way to be humble, Wayne. He also says he's retiring so her can go to more Little League games. Wait, what?
"I can do this Lil Wayne thing, and my boys will be about 7 and 8 years old. And man, it's all about them then. You know, whatever they're doing. Sports. Whatever they're into. That's where I am. I'm at every game. I'm the dad with the hat on. The jersey. That's me."
The 29-year-old rapper wants to retire in 6 years. Not fair. He travels the world, raps about being a millionaire and basically lives at a skatepark. And he gets to retire from THAT in 6 years. That's the sound of my 401K plan laughing at me.
He also says he thinks he got a tattoo roofie. Which is probably true. Let's discuss those face tattoos. Who told him that was a good idea? "I think somebody slipped something in my drink, like a drug that’ll make you get, like, a bunch of tattoos.
Lil Wayne went to prison for an 8 month stint for weapons possession, however, everyone thought it was drug related. Though, don't get confused. Lil Wayne doesn't do heroin or crack, he just smokes a ton of weed and guzzles cough syrup.
"I cannot wait until I get off probation, sweetheart. Not for syrup. No, not for syrup. I stopped syrup May 9 of 2009. But nobody knew. Because I still rapped about it. Because I respect the culture of where it came from. I still rep that shit," says the rapper.
Repping syrup? Is he the spokesperson for Robitussin? All the sizzurp drinking dudes just collectively lifted their glasses and then passed out.
Wayne also says honestly that being sober totally sucks, "I drank syrup and smoked a lotta weed. I wish I could be back on it. That’s how it fucking feels. ‘How does it feel to be sober?’ I’ll be like, ‘It feels fucked-up.’ What you want me to say? ‘It feels great’? No. I was on something that the doctor prescribed. I was ill, and that was helping me.
In a rare moment, Wayne opens up about his relationship with his biological father, "He don’t give a shit about me. And I don’t give a shit about him. … I don’t want to look like his ass, but I do.”
Kelly Clarkson wants to hit Adele with a 2 piece thats right a wing and a biscuit!
Kelly Clarkson might be a drunk. I suspect this from two things: 1) She says she wants to punch Adele and 2) She stalks Miranda Lambert when she's intoxicated. Let's explain.
Kelly is so jealous of Adele's career and how talented she is that Kelly wants to "punch Adele in the face," which is a very normal reaction for someone who sells more albums than you.
Kelly jokes, "I want to punch Adele in the face! She is just too good. I saw the BRIT Awards and I was just bawlin', just watching her on YouTube, in a little box this big."
However, despite her love/hate relationship with Adele she says the woman she idolizes is Miranda Lambert aka the country singer and wife of The Voice judge Blake Shelton.
"Miranda is one of my favorites. Have I thought about collaborating with her? Uhhh – I might think about it every day! I run into her all the time and I swear to God she thinks I'm stalking her and she hates me. Every time I run into her, usually I'm intoxicated and I'm slurring, 'We need to sing a song!' at her. She says she wants to do it, but every time she has an album coming out, I do too, so we're both way too busy. Or she's just sidestepping me, I don't know, haha."
Just a hunch, Lambert might be "sidestepping" you because you drunkenly shout collaboration requests at her. Just a hunch.
Though Kelly insists she's just a regular girl since "being normal" is kind of Kelly's schtick, meaning that she doesn't wear leotards, doesn't have a weave, and doesn't change her hair color as quickly as regular people change their nail polish (I'm looking at you Nicki Minaj, Katy Perry, and Lady Gaga).
I think I'm not unattainable," she reflects. "A lot of stars are, but you have a friend like me – I promise!"
Kelly opens up to UK paper The Guardian about why she's so normal and why she never wanted fame.
"My goal was just to be a backup singer – I never intended to be in front. But then my apartment in LA burned down and I had to move home, I had no money and I had to sleep in my car for three days. I just auditioned for this thing that said they'd pay you, and it happened to be American Idol. I didn't go into it thinking this would happen; I went into it thinking it might pay my electric bill."
She's just a "ballsy, Texan, sarcastic asshole." Her words, not mine.
Freida Pinto & Dev Patel out for a stroll on the town
Making the most of their time in the UK, Freida Pinto and Dev Patel were spotted out for a stroll in London, England last night (October 20).
The “Slumdog Millionaire” actors walked through the West End theater district while shutterbugs snapped up pictures.
And it sounds like Freida recently scored a big payday, having signed a $7 million contract with a high fashion apparel brand.
Pinto’s agent told press, "It's a policy never to comment on brand deals. Brand Freida stands for very rare, unique and irreplaceable values and imagery, making her the ideal choice for a brand with a global appeal and an Indian focus.”
Jersey Shore gears up for season 5

In the teaser, Pauly D ends up tanning too much and burns his face off, prompting Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi to tell him to stop tanning.
Additionally, the ladies get all gussied up to head out to Karma nightclub and see how many guys they can hook up with. It’s pretty much like every other season!

Mariah and Nick Carey's twins
Giving a full look at the two new joys in their lives, Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon let the world get a close look at their baby twins.
The power couple interviewed with Barbara Walters for a "20/20" special airing on Friday night (October 21), during which they focused on six-month-olds Moroccan and Monroe.
Discussing her pregnancy, Miss Carey said, “I don’t think I understood the enormity or the magnitude of what it really does to your body. It’s not just, oh you don’t look pretty and you have a bump.”
Also dishing about the little ones love for music, Mariah revealed, “They really respond to music," adding that she cried while singing "Hero" to the little ones.
Cannon, meanwhile, spoke of the importance that Monroe and Moroccan get schooled before deciding a career path, as he said, “I want to make sure we get education first. Society puts too much on entertainment and entertainers… They praise them like they’re royalty, especially in America, where it should really be about the teachers or, you know, the doctors.”
“I want them to be able to sing as beautifully as their mother. I want them to be able to play instruments and everything. But I want them like ….’Go get a Ph.D,’” Cannon added.
Twilight Revelation Meet and Greet
To the delight of their legions of fans, "Twilight" stars Robert Pattinson and Ashley Greene got their month-long "Breaking Dawn: Part 1" promotions underway in Paris on Sunday (October 23).
The Edward Cullen hunk and his Alice Cullen co-star made their way to UGC Capucines as they took center stage at a special fan event in the French capital city.
The press stop comes shortly after Miss Greene's November cover issue interview with Allure magazine was released, in which she jokes about Pattinson by saying, "Rob. Oh, Rob. He's very endearing, but you've seen his interviews. He's like, 'Ah, I don't know.... Oh, God.'"
Making sure to offer up praise after the teasing line, Ashley went on to call Robert a "phenomenal actor," adding, "All of us essentially were unknown. So everyone kind of went through this crazy whirlwind [together]. It was really nice to be able to confide in people who were going through the exact same thing."
Meanwhile, it has also been announced by TV Guide that MTV will be unveiling their first "Breaking Dawn" special on November 3rd.
As for their vampire saga's latest installment, the film is set to take over theaters worldwide on November 18th.

The two lovely ladies made separate arrivals as they opted to chow down at Brooklyn eatery Buttermilk Channel for their weekend brunch outing.
While the original version featured Outkast's Andre 3000, Miss Knowles switched things up by remixing the song with J. Cole - with the audio for the newly crafted track available by pressing the play button below!
"Fat guy in a little coat" A look at Rick Ross

Bad enough He went through the ringer with 50, Although he did come out victorious but how often do people think "Cop" when they see Ross?
I always told myself he was 2 bites away from a heart attack! With that being said
who gave rozay the OK to wear small jackets with the big boobs hanging out? My eyesight is bad so every time He comes on I cover my Child's eyes then i realize its not a woman with her boobs hanging out It's the "BOSS" I don't care about the amount of money he has if he did that in the hood it would be curtains, but I understand fat people do get hot...I guess

Something I stumbled upon
So I'm definetly glad I stumbled upon this, Dude sounds like a young Lupe. It's good to hear a rap that doesn't involve blowing loud! check out @ImTrell

Charlie Sheen has once again turned on "Two and a Half Men" .... saying he's now "extremely disappointed" with the way producers are "handling what I left behind."
Sheen was out in L.A. yesterday ... when a photog asked if Charlie could explain why "Men" was slipping in the ratings from the show's explosive debut.
Charlie -- who recently said he "loved" the first episode of the Ashton Kutcher era -- explained, "People aren't stupid ... not all of them."
FYI -- "Men" is still high atop the ratings ... in fact, this week's episode is UP one-and-a-half rating points from the episode that ran exactly one year ago.
Accused "Michael Jackson" killer

Dr. Conrad Murray made a pretty shocking statement last night, leaving a restaurant in Santa Monica. He said, "I would like to pray for the prosecutor, his associates, and his expert witness."
Sadly, the photog didn't ask why Murray was praying for them ... whether it's because he prays for everyone, be they friend or foe -- or whether he's praying because he believes they are portraying him unfairly/unethically before the jury.
The rap group Bone Thugs-n-Harmony is standing together to take on a lawsuit filed against the group stemming from an alleged altercation outside their tour bus earlier this year ... this according to one of the group's members.
As TMZ first reported, Bizzy Bone (far left) was investigated for alleged assault in Chicago back in June after two men claimed he flipped out and beat them up after they paid $80 to party with the group after a concert. According to a report, no arrests were ever made and earlier this week ... the men decided to file a lawsuit against Bizzy and the rest of the band.
Flesh-n-Bone (second from the left) tells TMZ the group feels "the truth will come out" and they plan to "deal with this in court."
He tells us, "We generally don’t let fans on the bus and we are never mean to any of our fans. We love all of them. We have the right representation and we will handle this matter accordingly."

It's been a BIG week for former child stars -- and it's downright shocking what some of them look like or are up to now!
Haley Joel Osment ("The Sixth Sense") surprised fans with a new look last night on the red carpet, Lindsay Lohan ("The Parent Trap") was hauled into court over probation issues and Shia LaBeouf got into a huge street brawl.
It wasn't all bad: Zac Efron ("Summerland") celebrated his 24th birthday, pregnant Hilary Duff ("Lizzie McGuire") prepared for her baby boy and Emma Watson ("Harry Potter") started classes at Oxford!
By looking at all of them though, one thing's for sure: A lot can change in a few short years.
Check out how some of your favorite child stars from the 90s and 2000s have changed!
