February 1, 2008

US rapper Jay-Z is to headline this summer’s Glastonbury Festival, it has been confirmed… Continue reading Well they did announce several weeks back that a, and I quote, “black American” would be headlining this year’s event . Ty asked this question and now I’m asking it…..’SINCE WHEN DID THEY START REFERENCING HEADLINERS BY COLOUR??? But any way the organisers should be congratulated, because they succeded in bagging an A-List “black American” to fill the much hailed and coveted slot….. 

PICS OF THE DAY: LIL KIM….

February 1, 2008

Lil Kim at Louie Vuitton and Marc Jacobs screening, wearing a Marc Jacobs creation… Why would anyone close to Kim allow her to go out looking like this? Who convinced her that she looked good? Where are her friends and family??? Seriously the woman deserves to be locked up again, this time for her heinous crimes against fashion! I look at Kim now and just think ‘why?’

LOL OF THE DAY: BILL COSBY WORKING ON RAP ALBUM……..

January 31, 2008

   Bill Cosby – a staunch critic of some rap music – is set to release a Hip-Hop album called State of Emergency, which will be a sanitized, issue-oriented CD.

READ UPDATE: According to a representative Jay will NOT be releasing a new album. Now this has become a pattern with Jay.  He gets his cronies to leak information (e.g. stepping down as Def Jam President), causes a stir, then promptly denies the stories.

NEW UK ARTIST: DAVID JORDAN – IS HE BRITAIN’S ANSWER TO JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE?

January 31, 2008

This morning I came across new “British singing sensation” David Jordan on early morning breakfast show, GMTV. Presenter, Andrew Castle, introduced David as being “Britain’s answer to Justin Timberlake” and my response to that was ‘whatever Andrew!!!’. If any thing he would probably just be the poor man’s Justin Timberlake, just like Mystique were the poor man’s  Destiny’s Child and Billie was the poor man’s Britney Spears.  But I stopped what I was doing and watched David’s performance….. Now as I watched – CRINGING, because at one point during an incredibly  ‘camp’ performance, David insisted on dropping the odd, slightly revised Michael […]
