VIDEO: International “Takers” trailer cuts out T.I. & Chris Brown

Yeti — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 11:41:50 +0000

T.I. x Chris Brown x Takers. After taking a look at the U.S. version of the Takers trailer (after the jump) which was released back in October of 2009, it’s obvious that T.I. and Chris Brown get some major credit and screen time alongside full-time actors like Paul Walker and Suck-Ass Vader Hayden Christensen. Easy to see that Screen Gems is using them to push “urban” but still have Walker and Christensen to broaden the appeal as well.

Now take a look at the new International trailer of Takers shown above. If you happen to be a T.I. or Chris Brown fan you will notice one thing…they are taken out. Sure you can hear T.I. in the voice over but the majority of shots of both of them from the U.S. trailer are completely taken out and their screen credits are completely gone.

Now before we all go screaming “RACIST!!!” remember that marketing is about appealing to your target demo and in regards to international appeal, T.I. and Chris Brown just are not as appealing as some white dudes who can’t act. That’s the sad part. Take a look though, compare and see for yourself. Once again…U.S. trailer shown after the jump….

72% of WoooHa readers say Twitter will last one year; Chris Brown agrees

Yeti — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 11:41:51 +0000

In last weeks’ “WoooHa Poll of the Week” we asked 100 WoooHa readers “How much longer will Twitter be the hot thing in hip-hop? The results came back as follows:

So 72% think Twitter will last another year in hip-hop before everyone migrates along to the next big thing. Looks like our readers are pretty damn in tune with what’s been going down lately in the Twitterverse. First you had Cudi publicly denouncing Twitter last week, and now just yesterday Chris Brown officially deleted his Twitter account after one too many PR nightmares.

As more and more artists find themselves in more trouble than good with Twitter it will only be a matter of time before more artist managers and publicists put the shut down on their clients’ Twitter account. Who is next to bail from Twitter?

Chris Brown rips the music industry on Twitter

Yeti — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 23:25:47 +0000

Although the industry might be jumping off the Twitter bandwagon, at least we know one good use for it these days…complaining about album sales. Here is Chris Brown’s latest Tweet where he complains about the music industry.

Maybe instead of complaining about his lack of sales he should be spending his time…shutting the heck up. CB should be lucky he even moved 90-100K first week units.

Big Headed Boxers severs ties with Chris Brown

Yeti — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 20:05:34 +0000

Chris Brown x Big Headed Boxers. My last Chris Brown entry for the day. But it’s a good one. Last October, Chris Brown announced his business partnership with online underwear company Big Headed Boxers. Chris had an equity stake in the company and was supposed to help push the brand. But now the company has officially severed ties with Chris. Chairman of the company, Keith Davis officially stated:

‚ÄúIn light of recent events, BigHeaded Boxers would like to confirm that notwithstanding prior public statements made by Chris Brown about his relationship with BigHeaded Boxers, Mr. Brown has repudiated his contract with BigHeaded Boxers‚Äù.

Yeti says: It kinda shows balls (haha) that Big Headed Boxers is willing to go through with this and drop Chris even though he’s made up with Rihanna and its pretty clear he won’t be charged. Good for them. Regardless if he gets away with it, he still was in the wrong.

T.I. denies our “Takers” Chris Brown story

Yeti — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 18:00:24 +0000

T.I. x Takers (AKA Bone Deep). Rap Radar recently did an interview with T.I. where he stars and produces in the upcoming action film Takers (formerly Bone Deep) which also stars Chris Brown. In the interview, Rap Radar asks T.I. directly to comment on our WoooHa story of CB being erased from the marketing in the movie. T.I. replies:

Nah man, that can‚Äôt be further from the truth. There‚Äôs no validity to that statement. I‚Äôm a producer on the movie and I ain‚Äôt put forth no sort of order or request man. And personally, it‚Äôs very, very premature to jump to such a conclusion given that none of these matters have been resolved. No one has been tried or convicted or nothing like that. I‚Äôm not going to jump to no conclusions. I‚Äôm not going to. I think that‚Äôs unfair ’cause that‚Äôs what people did with me, and I‚Äôm not going to do that.

Yeti says: All I have to say is that my sources were legit and my story ran when CB was in the total dog house, before he reconciled with Rihanna, and when the media was ripping him. So at that time I was told, yes they were talking about a Chris Brown contingency plan with the marketing. But now? Well now he’s in the studio recording songs with Rihanna, taking trips with her, etc. He’s safe again. So of course they are going to deny everything and say these talks never happened. That’s all. I’m done with this story now. And here is my plug for Screen Gems…Takers hits theaters Jan 8, 2010. Peace.
