Alicia Keys recently did an interview with Blender Magazine for their May issue and said a bunch of stupid crap. Between saying gansta rap wasn’t real (it was a ploy from the government to get black people to kill each other) and that Biggie and Tupac were killed by the government, she pretty much blew smoke up everyone’s ass. But now, after seeing how many people are laughing at her, she’s accusing of Blender of twisting her words. She released the following statement:

“My comments about ‘gangsta rap’ were in no way trying to suggest that the government is responsible for creating this genre of rap music. The point that I was trying to make was that the term was oversloganized by some of the media causing reactions that were not always positive. Many of the ‘gangsta rap’ lyrics articulate the problems of the artists’ experiences and I think all of us, including our leaders, could be doing more to address these problems including drugs, gang violence, crime, and other related social issues.”

Damage control! Alicia doesn’t want people to know she was doing drugs at the time of that interview. You know she was. She can’t possibly believe all the crazy shit she said.

The AP is sticking to their story. Do I smell a law suit?
