About the Author

(Staten Island): (Researcher Asst.; Critic; Street Reporter) I am so happy to join the gang in 2002 & for being given a chance. I got into this because there was only so much Nelly that I could listen to on KTU. I needed to see what else was out there. My friends didn’t like this new job at first, but now they can’t wait to get the newest edition or log-on online to see what’s new! My parents have gotten over the music I listen to and realize that they are simply for review. I have learned that artists who continue to state their names throughout the CD are a turn off. Either way, I can’t wait for the new year to kick off right.

About Us Bootleggers

About Us Bootleggers…

Here we try to speak on what's being dumped into, what we call, the Whirlpool Of Shame (W.O.S.) otherwise known as the Entertainment Industry. This goes for all types of media no matter what!

Named W.O.S. because no matter how talentless one truly is, there's someone out there willing to give up money to listen or watch one complete their journey to Foolishness... They are even willing to conduct interviews on Broken Boulevard & Behind the Music to help get the rest of us to believe the lies they told you.

The Bootlegger's Chronicles does NOT condone nor condemn the art of ~~bootlegging~~ Street Vending or "piracy" as the W.O.S. would like to call it. We do NOT MAKE the creations simply review them.

Dead and Still Rocking - After finding interest in the True Blood series and Sookie Stackhouse's friend, Loretta, I decided to finally read the book that started it all - two years later. The book was definitely more graphic than the televised cable series and that is a bit surprising being that the televised version was a bit graphic every now and then. The book was a bit more interesting but not by much. I'm from the Anne Rice and Bram Stoker's School of Vampires and still love their versions over most.... More →

The Pride and Shame of Desire - From the start of this book one is asked to question his or her desire to compete with the Jones. The concept of going morally broke to fulfill a physical want is explored as the main character, "the man," attempts to refrain from the corruption that has taken over his nation. It seems that as a government employee, he is one of the few - if not the only- that rejects brides and being dishonest. He struggles with his hate for his wife's greed for belongings and the need to provide for his family.... More →
Braving An Undesired World - "A Brave New World" is a gripping novel that grabs your attention and keeps a steady grip. For the main character, Bernard, life should be good. Top level position at work, no stress, recreational sex, no worries of disease, and a comfortable existence. However something is wrong - he's shorter than his counterparts within his caste. He wonders what were the citizens like before the current restrictions on life were implemented. Test tube babies are the norm. To have children is an unwanted distraction and the main lab can create the perfect beings to live in the perfect environment.... More →
Kronos Gets Closer to Percy Jackson - When the goddess Artemis goes missing, she is believed to have been kidnapped.

The Greek Harry Potter Takes to the Sea - Percy Jackson's seventh-grade year has been surprisingly quiet. Not a single monster has set foot on his New York prep-school campus. But when an innocent game of dodgeball among Percy and his classmates turns into a death match against an ugly gang of cannibal giants, things get... well, ugly. And the unexpected arrival of his friend Annabeth brings more bad news: the magical borders that protect Camp Half-Blood... More →
The Greek Harry Potter - Twelve-year-old Percy Jackson is about to be kicked out of boarding school... again. No matter how hard he tries, he can't seem to stay out of trouble. But can he really be expected to stand by and watch while a bully picks on his scrawny best friend? Or not defend himself against his pre-algebra teacher when she turns into a monster... More →
A Loss of Another Music Great - Teddy Pendergrass began his music career in another legendary music group, Harold and the Blue Notes, and his voice rocked the music world ever since. When his smooth vocals were heard, there was no doubt that Mr. Pendergrass captured his audience's attention and hearts.... More →
Crazy at the Gate vs. Psycho in the Kitchen - Reva Williams was suing Robin Knox for $600 allegedly that she lent money to Knox to help pay for a gate that her son was building for her. Knox said that the money was not a loan and that Matthews’ son never completed the job. She countersued for $2500 to hire someone else to finish the gate. Matthews was quick to throw stones and insults as she attacked Knox’s character and Knox was more than eager to retaliate. Matthews’ mentally unstable son was fresh out of the loony bin when Knox (after 35-yrs) saw him again. She claimed that no one told her of Mr. Matthews’ mental instability despite her admittance to knowing that he had drug and alcohol problems. What type of hot mess is that? Would one really need a third strike to decide that perhaps an abuser of substances may not be the best choice for gate welding and no references?... More →
Oprah Bids Adu in 2011, But She Could Be Bluffing Again - Once again the Cancel Teaser brings word that she believes 25 years of preserving fruits, handing out taxable gifts, and rehashing old stories as exclusive interviews is enough. Apparently 2011, a year before the world's supposed annihilation, Oprah will throw in the towel on her talk show. So I'll only get one year of peace from Winfrey, but only if she does not find a way to bombard me with her foolish OWN Network in which she will be co-owner with Discovery Networks. Great, maybe there will still be time to rip my ear drums out and gauge out my eyes.... More →
2010 Promises the End of Tyra Talk - Tyra finally calls it quit on her talk show that somehow always reverted back to a discussion about - well - Trya. Perhaps she confused the concept of Talk Show named Tyra with a talk show that actually talked about Tyra. Either way... More →
An Ex-Hubby's Bitter Revenge - James Augustine, Jr. was sued by Bryan Diamond for assault. Diamond is the ex-hubby of Augustine, Jr.’s current wife. This drama started when Diamond allowed his bitterness for his wife’s new situation to take over. Diamond’s sloppy ass is STILL in arrears for child support but has the audacity to file a child support court order now that he has the two children. The law has him receiving the same amount of money that he was supposed to pay but failed to. Diamond clearly took over custody for the money and spite.... More →
Hype Junkie 2009 Crowned - The time has come to crown the new Hype Junkie of 2009. We have slipped since 2002 but trust, the hype has not been missed. It was rather hard to ignore but there were more important fish to fry. - It's actually timely that the crown will be passed from J Lo to this person. In fact, as soon as Jennifer Lopez took a much needed hiatus from the Hype Spotlight many, including this year's winner, fought hard for the attention. Despite "wanting privacy" in few areas of their lives, many public figures (and some unknown drama whores) fight to be mentioned in a paper or on a TV show. As the old business adage states, no publicity is bad publicity.... More →
Kidney Sale vs. $300 Bag - I was not even going to address this case, but once I heard about the attempted kidney sale, I opted to speak on it. The case involves a plaintiff (Norma Parks) who is suing for $300. The defendant (Rasheeda Adderly) states that she was not responsible and is still owed for babysitting and is countersuing for $300 (not for babysitting costs but “emotional distress”). Parks’ son (Nathaniel) has been with Adderly for 15 years and claimed illness for not showing up in court. After Adderly taking shots at Parks regarding Nathaniel’s dislike for his mother. Judge Milian points out that perhaps he simply doesn’t want to be in the middle.... More →
Hot Mess Mariangela Style - Two Rhode Island residents move to Arkansas and now one (Joseph Arruda) sued the other (Mariangela Defreita) for lost damages. Mariangela showed a sloppy side when it was revealed that she refused to place Arruda’s name on their child’s birth certificate but left the child in his custody. She also lied about wanting to be with him but had him move out to Arkansas so he wouldn’t lose his child (or her) and then left him for another man.... More →
The Sloppiness of McFarlane - During the 12/3 episode, Amyr Ivory sued Abby McFarlane for $1475. McFarlane countersued for loss of rent at $850. Now let’s speak on McFarlane’s sloppiness. This lying wench was looking for a tenant/sucker and found Ivory and his girlfriend through a realtor. They all came to an agreement that Ivory would rent the place.... More →

Unbeknown to the audience or other unsuspecting Fans the abuse is wide spread and blatant. Here is the story of abuse direct from a fan.... More →
The Jackson Dynasty Televised - The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty ended tonight until another season - if there is one. The series was interesting but mainly because the viewers were able to watch the brothers interact and come together after the death of their brother, Michael Jackson. Some of the in-fighting was like any other sibling mini-rivalry would be. Everyone wanting to have their say and some... More →
Menopausal Wonderland Alice - The Syfy channel has taken it upon themselves to provide the world with a new version of Alice in Wonderland, but with a menopausal take. Not exactly a Golden Girls version, but damn near. I could not help but continuously wonder how old this broad was as she simply looked aged and worn on the screen. The mini-movie was very much a psychedelic take on Wonderland, but then again the original children's cartoon seemed to have been done by cartoonists on drugs listening... More →
Beyoncé Singled Out - For one of her worst songs on one of her worst albums to date, Single Ladies had garnered the nomination for Hype of the Year. The Industry is in overdrive to have folks believe that this crap put to music is actually deserving of play and accolades. Ladies need to keep it moving from any ex that wants return trips to the love muffin only because someone else is taking up residence. No need to waste... More →
A Concert for Nominees? - Who would have thought the award shows would get this desperate and host a concert for the announcements of nominations to an award. And they say the music industry is losing money. I don't know about anyone else but when the budget gets tight I normally don't throw a blowout celebration with the few dimes I have left. I usually wait until I'm down to two pennies so that I may rub them together.... More →
Farewell Monk - For years Adrian Monk has entertained viewers and got the audience on his side when his pain of losing his wife would become too much for him at times. He is taking his final case tonight and it's the case of who poisoned him and murdered a doctor and his wife. This final season has been dedicated to Detective Monk working through his issues with germs and coping with the murder of his wife. He has had two assistants (Sharona Fleming, my favorite, and Natalie Teeger) and they not only... More →

Tiger Hunt - So after an accident involving Tiger Woods in front of his home over the weekend, the media is having a field day wondering if this Negro (even though he prefers not to have the association) should lose his endorsements or not. Interesting especially since whatever happened did not pertain to anyone besides Woods and a tree. How is him running into a tree supposed to affect his financial status and work?... More →
Babysitting Only Left for Black Entertainers - The non-talented American Idol alumnae, Adam Lambert, claims that he is a "performer" and not a babysitter. This bullshit remark comes from a fraud who is not even a performer but a sloppy talentless wonder who scammed his way onto the American Music Awards. He was not even the winner of American Idol so how did he get on the show to close the night out. Despite the fact that the show was being shown with much of the entertainment world's top "performers,"... More →

Alicia Keyes has created a way for fans see her in full performance throught he help of the almighty Google/YouTube/Facebook. At 8 PM EST the show will kick off for World AIDS Day at the Nokia Theatre in NYC. - Tune in if you want - I'll probably forget but then again it's not like the show... More →
Blow-job vs. Nipple on Stage - Ok, so by now most have seen the train wreck which is the latest American Idol shame called Adam Lambert. I have not heard one word of his Blow-job tactic on the AMAs last night. He clearly shoved a woman's head in his crotch to simulate her giving him head yet no one could escape the Jackson Nipple News Break on every freakin' channel. seriously, this dude is not a good or decent singer. His main talents is shock value and screeching into a microphone while stretching his tongue out.... More →
bbs: after midnight - Bound By Substance has become the house band for one of the famous clubs in NYC: Bitter End. The group has been performing for a couple of years and always gives their all in every performance. Live is where you would want to be when it comes to hearing this band bring life to their music. They switch things up and through in a few cover songs now and then. The fans love them and the songs have staying power. Each member brings a unique strength to the band and makes BBS what it is today. - If you're lucky enough to know these guys personally, then it places an extra touch on the entire experience. Come out and catch up the with the spirit of Bound By Substance. - The bound before BBS was actually good. They laid down a solid foundation of hot vibes for BBS. Just one question to the singers out there: why rest your lips on the mics? Is there a real purpose? Are u trying to hold yourselves up? I truly would like to understand. - The guest guitar player was really good and the lead guitarist was no joke. Group's name was love rocket. The rendition of blues I Loved a Woman was done brilliantly. The guest (lead) guitarist's solo was on point. "She's evil and she's mean..." Sums up plenty of sexy, complicated and bitchy women.... More →
Janet Speaks - Janet Jackson took this opportunity to speak with Robin Roberts from Good Morning America regarding her career, the loss of her brother Michael Jackson, her love for her family, and her life in general. I admire Janet and felt this interview was done tastefully. Janet was protective over her family and delved into her start in the Entertainment Industry. One of the topics was her marriage to James DeBarge. Her first husband was addicted to drugs and Janet spoke on her recognition with the addiction and her family's attempts to help Michael pull away from his own addiction.... More →
At Home with Janet Jackson (preview) - Seems that Ms. Jackson will be taking a cue from her older brothers and getting the world ready for an inside view into the Jackson clan. She will be conducting an interview from... More →
Televised Palin Hard-On - Just when I believe that the W.O.S. cannot get any more ridiculous, I get a wake up call confirming reality. Yes, not only can things get worse but the days of creation are seriously limited. Why are these tabloid television shows still on? Can society truly be as retarded as it is being portrayed on television?... More →
V: Retold - Name of Show: V - Main Character(s): Elizabeth Mitchell, Morris Chestnut, Joel Gretsch, Logan Huffman, Lourdes Benedicto, Laura Vandervoort, Morena Baccarin, Scott Wolf - Official Debut Date: November 3, 2009 - Blades: 8 - Review: V was an original series back in the 80s before it's short run ended. Now, like many old ideas, the cobwebs have been swept and the show revived for television. This time the phrase 9/11 has been included as a question posed to ask the viewer where were they. Was that needed, of course not but the non-creative producers, writers, and executives of the show needed to use it at least once.... More →
Hyped NKOTB - They are back and have been enjoying one hell of a hyped moment in this new high-tech industry.

Food Mixing: Should Platanos Go with Collard Greens? - Went to an off-Broadway play that I have heard rave reviews about for some time.

365 Days of Junk - From the beginning of this book Stephens comes off as a selfish person who sadly believes that money is the basis of true happiness, comfort, and the answer to most, if not all, the issues one may face. To add insult to injury, Stephens believes that the peace of mind one would receive is partly due to giving 10 percent tithes. The affirmations and action... More →
A Fraud in Sheep's Clothing - Despite parroting Black achievements by Blacks, Stephens goes on to tell Blacks that some of the financial inequities are the fault of Black people. For one to go to great lengths regarding racial oppression and the few resources given to Blacks, Stephens creates more questions as to why she would tell this same group of people that this could all be called “emotional baggage?” It is as if this woman placed her name... More →
Seasons of Understanding - Two Thousand Seasons is set in the harshest century of the Atlantic Slaving War that for three hundred years devastated Africa while lifting Europe to affluent world dominance. Europeans have come to call that period The Enlightenment. For Africans it was a time of senseless human sacrifice imposed by the worship of The Market and its blood-thirsty god, Profit.... More →

Faithfully Bustin' Lil' Kim's Ass - Lawd, just when we’ve heard all the dedications from Lil’ Kim (famous American female rapper) to Biggie (legendary American male rapper) about being his true love and miscarrying his child; a new twist to the story drops. We at The Bootlegger’s Chronicles heard rumors of this new book but now quotes are being given. Faith Evans, Christopher “Biggie (B.I.G.) Smalls” Wallace’s... More →
Words of a S.T.A.R. - Troi "STAR" Torain has been on the scene of the Entertainment Industry for a long time. His supporters know his as a man who is not afraid to come after anyone.

The Return of the Two Coreys: Again - During the July 13th show, the fellas are back on screen and doing a reality show together. At the same time they are filming the sequel to the Lost Boys. The show has been showing the rocky relationship of the former 80s teen stars. On the show the two have begun to see a therapist. At first Feldman and his wife went to dinner with some friends (other former actors and comedians past their prime) and slightly mocked the idea of counseling for the two Coreys. Seems that Haim is continuing to battle with the addiction of drugs and lack of work.... More →
NKOTB back in concert - Kicking off the Summer - As the much needed Summer treat the NKOTB fans could have hoped for, the five men from Boston graced the streets of New York. On the makeshift stage of the Today Show, May 16 at 8:30 AM. The question is was it wise? - They got off to a rocky start and after 15 years it could have been worse. I was wondering why McIntyre's mic was louder than everyone else's, including... More →
Wesley Goes 2 Jail: Can They Hold Blade Down? - Well Mr. Snipes makes the list of Most Recent Negros to Go to Jail. He has been sentenced for three years in prison as of April 24th. The question remains; will he be attending the prison’s Sadie Hawkins Dance while there? - Was it truly that serious to avoid the money hungry IRS and send the man to jail? Why not just get the money a,d a fine on top of that?... More →

Your Sunday Best - Worst TV Show To Date? - Sunday Best - Just when I thought there could be a chance for more videos they even add more fauxality to the Sunday "lineup." Are there even Gospel videos anymore? - Not sure when this began, looks like today was the beginning - could have been last week Monday. Some may ask what is Sunday Best. Well this was an accidental find on BET... More →
Another Day of Crap On A Bench - Judge David Young is still on the air and singing on the bench. The weirdos are on the loose and they want TV time. More people wanting to gripe about not getting a fair shake and sue, sue, sue must be the next step. Not just to sue but to sue on TV. There's some fool talking about he gave a woman a house to rent and decides to show up & enter her domain without permission. - All he ever had to say was that he was there to care for the home and he felt that he had reasons to roll up just in case.... More →
Jury Crap Duty - Just when I thought more crap couldn't come on TV they bring us Jury Duty. This is another court show; I know, I know - "not another one...".

Will This Be The Color Purple's Final Curtain Call? - The Color Purple's Last Stand - In an effort to help bring people and money back to The Color Purple, Oprah & Quincy have recruited Fantasia Barrino to star as Ceile. Many have said that Ms. Barrino will jack up the quality of the show. - I guess ever since the song Baby Mamma Drama dropped so did the faith in Barrino. As banners lower... More →
From Dancing With The Stars To Dancing With The Stars Ex? - Are you serious with this? Now we are entertaining Mills' delusions in that she's a star outside of Europe? Look because you can do a backflip with one good leg don't make one an automatic star. Or is she a star because she was married to Paul MaCartney?... More →
50 Shots + 3 Inditments = Mass Confusion - After the shooting of Sean Bell, many still stood in disbelief that a Black man would be gunned down in 2006. Little do most know that just because tactics have changed does not mean that old threats disappeared by any means. I refuse to get into this aged debate in which folks talk in circles and ignore what is really occurring. Even the sham of a Democratic candidate, Barack Obama (Bam Bam) has chocked the event up another everyday foot-in-the-ass that Negros should accept. Sean Bell was murdered November 25, 2006... More →
Rats In The City - Ah, the precious moments of rats running the city. When I woke up and saw one of the favorite eateries of NYC's Village on the 6 AM news. Good 'ol KFC/Taco Bell chain that was crowded during many lunchtimes and dinner rushes. Now all of a sudden the place turned out to be an after hours spot. Not the usual rodents swarming about looking for free drinks and a special... More →
Street Entrepreneurs - Seems like we've come a long way from sitting in the theater with a coat over a camcorder. Now we've got the real deal hitting the public at a real discounted price. - My last purchase was for a classic set for $25. Now on sale in a retail spot this classic only drops to $95. This is before taxes so where's the sale? You know how I roll, wherever the sale... More →
Wickedly Brilliant - This play is one of the most talked about musicals to hit The Great White Way. The story of popular characters being told once again but with a bigger twist then when it was done with an all Black cast in the 70s: The Wiz.... More →
Street Shopping... - Picking a street vendor/product is not as simple as some might think or as difficult. Here are a few tips to assist you in your purchases. An informed consumer is a happy consumer. - How to pick a corner: - If you spot a bootlegger, pass by the table and see what types of CD/DVDs/VHS Tapes are there. It never hurts to look. If approached and you're not ready to make that purchase... More →
Street Cable... Why Pay More? - This article is dedicated to this cat who will remain nameless. I just don't understand how someone invites others to see a fight on Pay-Per-View and charges his guests $40 a head to see it??? Especially if you didn't pay for the Bootleg Connection or the box that you're using? Maybe Oliver on 395 Flatbush Avenue, Apt. #7B, can explain that to me and why he caught attitude when... More →
Monopolies - Digital Cable vs. Satellite Dish... Regular cable vs. On Demand & Premium channels... DVR vs. TiVo... MS vs. Mac... - No matter what things seem to be going back into the days of monopolized rulings. For certain extras in life or even a few necessities you are now forced to stand in a corner with forty million other people. - Is it really necessary for... More →
The Art of the Rip-Offs - Black Owned. Support Your Own. - Do businesses that claim to cater to a specific group do justice to that audience? Or do they simply take advantage of their own? Do these businesses feel that their consumers will buy anything as long as it's for Them By Them? - Some might say that "minorities" get the short end of the stick when buying from a... More →
Bad Street Vendors - Everyone wants to get into the game of selling to the masses at a discounted price. The thing is not everyone wants to give the consumers quality products. why can't we all simply meet in the middle? - Why must one go broke for quality or suffer at the hands of dishonest folks? Greed that's why. Both sides of the tunnel are greedy and will bleed you dry to make you think... More →
First Hype Junkie Crowned - Well, like we could not have guessed it by now. After the over hyped music and movie careers, the Puffy-Bennifer Bonanzas, and the drama with the "Nigga" protest Lopez is crowned Bootlegged Reviews' first Hype of the Year winner.... More →
All Craacked Up - The drama that went on in the newspapers was further hyped by a Primetime Interview by Diane Sawyer. Ms. Sawyer tried to do her job that night, but Whitney was on top of the interview. She let nothing slip. Whitney went looney when it came to asking for receipts on drug purchase, but she rebounded w/ attitude & calm (all rolled into one). Yes, she & Bobby lost their minds w/ a few answers but let's not be too harsh.... More →
Michael Over-Exposed - Enough Already - What's up people??!! Do we need Jackson on every front page in the land?? Don't we have children who can't read but are moving up in the school system?? Don't we have politicians raising taxes & pocketing money from folks like Bill Gates??? - Why can't people just let the man raise his own damn kids?? Even if they were adopted, created via tube, or by actual touching of skin. LET IT GO! When no-name people all over the world are drowning babies & shooting each other, people ignore them.... More →
The Eminem/Benzino Battle - Special Edition of December Hype - Can we just begin wit the notion that Eminem DESTROYED Benzino & his YESA BOSSIN' to the industry.

What kept Em in good... More →
Hyped Thanksgiving - Yesa Bossa... Benzino Hype - The "beef." Hate and jealousy is alive and well. This cat claims that he's not going after Eminem but the industry instead. Bull*ish.

Just state that you're mad that no one is buying your crap... More →
Happy Halloween Hype - Ashanti: Hype of October - Well Shorty, you've done it again and you've done it in a very big way.
