Eddie Murphy is prepping to play former Washington, DC mayor Marion Barry in a film to be directed by Spike Lee. Barry was caught smoking crack cocaine in 1990.

Spike Lee will be in the director’s chair for a live webcast of John Legend & The Roots’ September 23rd concert in New York City.

52 years ago Michael Jackson was born in Gary, Indiana but today the late King of Pop was a native New Yorker.

Even though he lives on the Upper West Side of Manhattan now, Spike Lee will rep Brooklyn until the day he dies.
