Aging DMX jailed for 6months, Find out why



 


My word! did you notice how old the 45-year-old rapper,DMX, has got? Once young, jocky, hunky and everything in between, need I say, ladies found him completely irresistible; now, his graying hair has just given way for a more geriatric look to unfold..


Anyway, that is besides the point; he was jailed in Buffalo, New York yesterday July 14th for failing to comply with a family court ruling. He was asked by a court to pay back child support  worth $400000 to one of his baby mamas but he didn't. It seems these days we can count the number of American celebrities without more than one baby mama; and those with baby mamas are so numerous they can't be counted.




As he appeared in court yesterday, a judge slapped him with a 6 months sentence and had him immediately locked up in Erie County Holding Center. I guess he thought he was invincible.
DMX has served several spells in prison, and has been arrested many times, for offences including possession of drugs, animal cruelty, parole violation, driving without a license and driving under the influence of alcohol. This is actually his first prison sentence since  2011
In the late 90s and early 00s, DMX was one of hip-hop’s biggest stars. His first five albums all topped the US charts. His most recent album, 2012’s Undisputed, reached No 19 in the US.
So, do you think the beast in him needs redemption or be thrown into the abyss?

Is it 'off head', 'off hand' 'off pat' or 'by heart'?

I love all the new students in my class. You guys are awesome by the way. 😀😀 Today. I want to give you a better expression for saying that 'you know something very well'. #Offhead? There is nothing like offhead. 'I know it off head' is wrong. #Offhand? What does offhand mean? It mean without previous thought or consideration. Just like saying 'on the spur of moment' , 'immediately', 'spontaneously'. So, do you just know something offhand? No...not at all. You can say something offhand, do anything offhand but then it seems weird to say ' I know the answer offhand'. It is normal 'to say the answer offhand'. Do you get my drift? People don't know anything spontaneously, rather, they  say what they already know, spontaneously. Now to the final expression #HaveSomethingOffPat? It means to know something or be able to do something perfectly; be perfect master of something . So rather tha...

Do you say 'talk more of' or 'talk less of'? Also, how to pronounce 'parliament'

My beautiful KIB students, today,  you will be happy learning the correct way to express yourselves. Nigerians have a way of changing typical English expressions to suit them. Someone still had to argue with me that the English expression 'Better the devil you know than the devil you don't "  is so wrong and does not make sense.  He opines that angel should be there.  He forgets that English can be quite illogical to our Nigerian minds. Lol. People say things like. 'He has not even proposed talk more of walking down the aisle with me' 'He does not have a car,  talk less a house" Well these two expressions or collocations are not common in British and American English. Here are the universal conventional English collocations for Nigerian English's  'Talk more of' and 'Talk less of',  #LetAlone 'Let alone' is  used to indicate that something is far less likely or suitable than something else already mentioned. E.g ...
