R. Kelly feat Usher: Same Girl {Video}


How is it possible that these two R&B heavyweights could produce such a mediocre song and video? R. Kelly and Usher are undoubtably the two biggest R&B male stars in the game so they should surely have done better with this effort.

As for the big twist at the end of the video it is very predictably. Oh well, Same Girl is the second single from R. Kelly's number one album Double Up.

Mini Upgrade!

Still catching up...

I'm gonna leave this one because I can. There are some people who I love and respect too much to clown and L-Boogie is one of them. It's good to see her back, I can't wait for the new album.

Peep a clip of her L-Boogie performing Bob Marley's classic Zimbabwe and my personal favourite Zion below:

Riri is also featured in the current issue of Instyle magazine. I'm sure this must be about her 100th magazine feature this year and she is not stopping there she has just shooted the cover for the August issue of vibe magazine. Anyway peep the scan below:

T-Pain feat Akon: Bartender {Video}


Since I was MIA last week I missed the premiere of T-Pain's new video for Bartender featuring Akon. So he jumps from the Stripper to the Bartender at least he's not too ambitious since they are both in his league.

Bartender is the second single from his sophomore album, Epiphany. He is annoying as hell but he beat out competition from hot property Rihanna and Paul McCartney to the number one spot on the Billboard charts last week.

Number one or not the video and the song still sucks.

Nelly Furtado: In God's Hands {Video}


In God's Hands is the fifth UK single from Nelly's multi-platinum album, Loose. I hope this is the last single from Loose it's time to put it to bed now, I like Nelly but In God's Hands is boring as hell.

Alicia Keys @ Samsung's Annual Four Seasons of Hope Gala

The Buzz!

I've been busy as hell so the updates were slow last week but I'm back now so let me catch up on some of the goss I missed.

The Catch-Up....


Cassie Dropped From Bad Boy Entertainment?

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
The gossip blogs have been buzzing about the news that Cassie's non-singing ass has finally been dropped from Bad Boy Entertainment. Oh well for some reason I think that might be wishful thinking for the most part since her debut album was a moderate success and Diddy took every opportunity to defend her poor live performances. Anyway if Diddy has finally come to his senses and dropped her ass I'm sure this won't be the last we see of her because she could always f*uck for some more tracks.



Eve Preps The Release Of New Album Here I Am

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
After taking a four year hiatus from the rap scene to focus on Hollywood and fashion, Eve is back with her new album Here I Am which is set for release August 7. Eve needs to come real hard with this new album since there is no competition in the game right now with Lil Kim busy working on her comeback and Foxy catching cases all over the place and misbehaving her crazy ass.

The triple threat diva Here I Am is shaping up to be her best release yet:

"This is the album I've always wanted to make," she says. "In the past my albums have had a heavy male influence. Not this time. This one represents the woman I am today."

Eve is already on a promo blitz, she hit up MTV's TRL last week to promote her new single Tambourine. Peep the flicks below:

Joss Stone Performs At Revolution Nightclub In Ft. Lauderdale, Florida on Saturday
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at PhotobucketPhoto Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Joss Stone has put her Ex... music producer Beau Dozier on blast, branding him "disgusting" for revealing details about their failed relationship to British Tabloid, News of the World last year.

She says, "On my God! Disgusting.

"Maybe one day I'll understand why he decided to that, but right now. It's beyond my comprehension."

I'm not a Joss Stone fan at all but I have to agree with her on this one I remember reading the interview with Beau last year and I was puzzled because all he talked about was that their 18 month relationship was not sexual and blah blah. I was like who the hell cares...next! Now if he did a Dallas Austin and ranted about her f*cking for tracks then that would have been more interesting.

How ironic that Naomi is dressed as an angel, don't worry Naomi we are not buying it we know you are still crazy as hell. Especially since it was only last week that she settled a lawsuit with an Aide she was accused of beating down in July 2005.



When Stars Talk Shit: The Kelly Rowland Edition

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Kelly Rowland believes that Beyonce should have won an Oscar for her performance as Deena in Dreamgirls.

The Like This singer says, "I tell you what, though, Beyonce was robbed of the Dreamgirls Oscar.
"She did a great job.

"Mind you, that won't be her last opportunity. She'll have plenty of Oscars in the future."

I'm sure by now you all know how I love Ms Kelly but it's things like these that really piss me off. You might think it's a bit harsh to file it under when stars talk shit since I'm sure deep down she really believes that what she is saying is true. SMH! But seriously WTF is she on about? It's one thing to love and be completely devoted to Beyonce but there is no need to start lying to her too. Don't get me wrong B is a great singer and performer but a Oscar wining worthy actress she is not! Kelly just stop it now and think about promoting your new album Ms Kelly because Beyonce doesn't need all this publicity but you do. Ms Kelly drops July 3, make sure you cop it. Yes I had to drop the plug in what can I say I love the girl I just wish she would step her game up and shut her mouth when she ain't got nothing constructive to say.
