| Lo Fun Fact #1 |
| "Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. To this day, she has no idea what a "Lolita" is. |
| Lo Fun Fact #2 |
| I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes. If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Mr. Chicken (my favorite spot in Cleveland) and a pair of
Christian Louboutins. |
| Lo Fun Fact #3 |
| Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi (preferably Pepsi Jazz Caramel Cream). Better yet, how about not show up at all? |
| Lo Fun Fact #4 |
| I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? |
| Lo Fun Fact #5 |
| I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!! |
| Lo Fun Fact #6 |
| I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position. |
| Lo Fun Fact #7 |
I have four five six wonderful, slap-happy dogs, a bird (some kind of dove/pigeon mix), and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs, bird, and cat, we'll be instant friends. If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs, a bird, and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond. |

| A Man With A Plan. |

This is why I will always love the Jiggaman. He's just smart, and there's nothing sexier to me than a smart, shrewd, ambitious, forward-thinking man who's always trying to get his hustle on...
 Jay-Z plans to depart his longtime record label, Def Jam, for a roughly $150 million package with the concert giant Live Nation that includes financing for his own entertainment venture, in addition to recordings and tours for the next decade. The pact, expected to be finalized this week, is the most expansive deal yet from Live Nation, which has angled to compete directly with the industry's established music labels in a scrum over the rights to distribute recordings, sell concert tickets, market merchandise and control other aspects of artists' careers.
Hustlers, take note: this is how you do it. No time for sleeping and making excuses. Get off your asses and make moves. The world hands you nothing. You've gotta go out there and get it.
Let's give it up for the Roc Boy. And here's some music to go along with it!!!

I agree, Lo. Jay-Z is turning out to be the smartest of all the rappers. He has a grand plan that keeps getting grander and grander.

Do the damn thang, Jay!!!!!

This will change everything and give artists options. They get exploited by record companies. It's time for a change.

Jay-Z is a very smart man. He's more concerned about building empires than doing all the dumb shit these other knuckleheads run around doing like flashing cash and chasing hoes. Get your paper, Hov. Keep it moving.

Ha! Just what Jay Z needs-------more money!
-
i am getting my paper just like jay hustler.......

Can't wait to see your thoughts on the alleged wedding.
Bey getting hitched to hip-hops soon-to-be first billionaire ain't a bad move at all.
