The awards show was originally scheduled for Feb. 6, but because of the major snowstorm that devastated the east coast, it had to be rescheduled.
“This is the fourth time that the city of Pittsburgh has come out to show support for the Pittsburgh Hip Hop Awards because it’s the biggest music industry event in the city,” said Muhammad. “This event is held to recognize artists, producers, businesses, etc. and the energy is always high.”

Out & About with Brotha Ash

This week I was at the Pittsburgh Hilton Hotel in Downtown Pittsburgh, Olive or Twist in Downtown Pittsburgh, CJ’s in the Strip District and Tim’s Lounge in the Hill District.
My first stop was at Tim’s Lounge in the Hill District where everybody knows your name. This is the place to be if you want to get your drink and party on.
My second stop was at the Olive or Twist in Downtown, Pittsburgh where Steelers safety Ryan Mundy, a former Woodland Hills, University of Michigan and West Virginia University standout, celebrated his birthday with friends and family.

My jealous sister ruined my wedding dress!
Category: Entertainment Written by Gwendolyn Baines
Dear Gwendolyn:
I am furious. A year ago I became engaged and since that time I have been planning the wedding of the century. The wedding is scheduled for next month and this is the problem:
My sister broke into our apartment and spray-painted my wedding dress. When I called the police, they did nothing about it. My sister has always been jealous of me. She is ugly and I am pretty and that has been the jealousy part of our relationship as sisters.
