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. Sources told AllHipHop.com that the actor, comedian and philanthropist will address issues like proper parenting, teen pregnancy, drug abuse, Black-on-Black crime and the dropout rate in America’s high schools. Cosby’s album will not contain any profane language, nor will it offer any denigrating comments towards women. State of Emergency would be the […]

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 […]

WTF!!!!! OF THE DAY: SOULJAH BOY – ‘CRANK DAT’ THE REAL MEANING BEHIND THOSE LYRICS…..

January 30, 2008

   A friend forwarded this email on to me today and I am disgusted! Read below…. “I wanted to pass this information on, I didn’t know if anyone else was as behind on things as I was. Thanks to Tom Joyner’s show this morning with Kirk Franklin I was enlightened. Kirk Franklin said he did not let his children listen to the song Souljah boy because of the words and the meaning of Superman. With that information I needed to find out exactly […]

FORMER R&B STAR STAR HOUSTON NOW LIVING ON THE STREETS?

January 28, 2008

Do any of you remember Houston? If not then this should jog your memories…. Several years ago Houston made headlines after he suffered a major mental break down while in the UK on a promotional tour, and gouched out his eye. I often wondered what became of him after this sad/unfortunate incident… but it now looks as if I need not wonder again…. According to mediatakeout.com Houston is now homeless, living on the streets of Los Angeles.  A myspace bulletin was apparently sent to a reader, detailing the former star’s […]

IS DEF JAM ABOUT TO DROP NAS?

January 23, 2008

  According to insiders, Def Jam bigwigs have given rapper Nas an ultimatium. Change the name of your new album or find a new label home!   Nas is currently refusing to change the name of his upcoming album, ‘Nigger’, and label heads are furious. A label source says,   “There is no way that we can put out an album with that title. Many retailers have already told us – flat out – that they won’t carry an album with that title. If Nas doesn’t change his mind, he’ll be dropped. […]

QUOTE OF THE DAY: RIHANNA

January 23, 2008

“People forget that the success is one great aspect of your life, but behind that there are problems, there are dark sides, there is loneliness and unhappiness. In this business people are shallow, they are dishonest. You can’t trust them.”
