It must truly be lonely at the top in Hollywood. Because, it seems like either they’re strung out on drugs or they’re plotting death. Sad. Owen was rushed to the hospital where he was hospitalized. People were saying it was a overdose. Insiders including Perez Hilton are now being told it was a suicide attempt.
Janet Jackson is furious at her brother Jermaine Jackson. Jermaine abandoned his third wife and two kids, and now his mother, 74-year old Katherine Jackson, has to pay the child support and provide housing. Alejandra Jackson used to be with Randy Jackson and had two kids by him. Then she left him for Jermaine. Now, Jermaine has dumped her for another woman. Jermaine’s new woman has money, so he could care less. He’s going with the cash. Janet is upset because she pays her mother’s bills, so therefore Jermaine’s ex and kids are being supported by her. Janet can’t believe her brother is standing by and letting his mother handle his business. Janet wants the men in her family to man up, get jobs and stop relying on their mother and family for handouts. There are kids, exes and girlfriends everywhere, and guess who has to pick up the tab? The Jacksons that have jobs have to.- SOURCE
LOL, Jamie Foxx spoke out about these recent events with Vick. He said:
It’s a cultural thing, I think,” Jamie said. “Most brothers didn’t know that, you know. I used to see dogs fighting in the neighborhood all the time. I didn’t know that was Fed time. So, Mike probably just didn’t read his handbook on what not to do as a black star. I know that cruelty to animals is bad, but sometimes people shoot people and kill people and don’t get time,” Jamie continued. “I think in this situation, he really didn’t know the extent
Meanwhile, Michael Vick believes that it was immature of him to harm animals for pleasure…OoooOh, and he found Jesus.
Shortly, after entering a guilty plea Monday to a federal dogfighting conspiracy charge, suspended NFL quarterback Michael Vick apologized, “for all the things that I’ve done and that I’ve allowed to happen.” In addition to making apologies to Atlanta Falcons teammates, his coach and the National Football League, Vick also said he was sorry, “to all the young kids out there for my immature acts.” “What I did was very immature so that means I need to grow up,” he said. He said that he was “disappointed in myself” and that “dogfighting is a terrible thing and I … reject it.” He said, “Through this situation I’ve found Jesus.”
LOL, I’m this won’t happen again.
MY BOYS AT THINK2WICE HAVE EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS OF MAKING OF THE BAND MEMBERS!! CHECK EM OUT — HERE
So, Diddy picked the five young men. I’m proud of all of them and this should be a interesting take to see how everything flows together. Especially they’re studio album! Meanwhile, Donnie during the duration of the group was titled, “The Pretty Fly For a White Guy.” Donnie was always outshining the boys by putting in 140% or more. During the practice that ended up having Lauren Ann fired. Donnie spoke out against Diddy. LOL, it was hilarious. I thought then and there that it would only be a couple more shows before we said goodbye to him…Anyway, what do you all think about this seasons, “Making of the Band?”
Beyonce Knowles has been asked to cover herself when she performs in Malaysia this year in November. Organizers have taken the decision keeping in mind the furious students of the Muslim country who threatened to boycott a concert performed by artist Gwen Stefani because of her indecent reputation.
“We’ve informed Beyonce’s management about this issue of clothes, but it takes some of the fun out of it,” Contactmusic quoted, Razlan Ahmad Razali, the chairman of Pineapple Concerts, as saying.
Now, I feel this is too much!
Emily King - East Side Story - J Records latest royalty starlet, Emily King is preparing her debut project, “East Side Story,” slated for August 28th. Birthed of a musical revolution of her jazz musician parents. She’s been singing the blues since she was a toddler. I’ve had the pleasure of going to see this star on the rise perform. She’s absolutely amazing and her soul is so mature. She embodies a wide range of subject matters i.e. Racism, Sexism, Big Business, and Poverty. She’s even taken on some of the classics of R&B hits such as, Bill Withers classic “Aint No Sunshine,” and reworks Donna Summer in the funky, “Walk In My Shoes.” I’m still impressed that she’s so intelligent and dropped out of highschool for a GED. Emily King described high school as just torture and something she wasn’t into it. None the less, East Side Story is defiantly a great story to listen too. — PURCHASE - Emily King - East Side Story
Yung Joc - Hustlenomics - Bad Boy Records biggest Rap Star presents, “Hustlenomics.” Yung Joc proves that he can stretch beyond what is expected of him. The album is very well produced each track Joc delievers. I’m rather impressed that his sophomore debut is actually so solid. “I’m A G,” proves that he’s the professor of his own art as he crafts his past over Chris Flash’s production. Cool & Dre produced, “Play Your Cards,” which helps open the album. I found myself nodding rather hard to the production it’s pratically flawless. The Neptunes takes their turn into a futuristic zone titled, “Bottle Poppin,” the 808 sounds so sweet as it beats. One of my favorite tracks on the album, “PakMan,” Yung Joc develops a dope approach and the production is supreme produced by Chase N. Cashe & Khao. The sophomore album is defiantly hot. Yung Joc keeps it street while showing the young hustlers that there are numerous of ways to make money. Don’t think for one moment that he’s just rapping about money. He has a song titled, “Momma.” Produced by. Jazzy Pha. That joint is mad nice. The album is a straight banger. Collaborations include Gorilla Zoe, Diddy, Bun B, Southern Girl, The Game, Tricky Daddy, Jazzy Pha, Mike Carlito, and Young Dro. - PURCHASE - Yung Joc - Hustlenomics

Other producers are, The Individuals, Nottz, Needlz, Snags, Neo Da Matrix, and Young World Music. The best track on the album is, “Part of the Plan.” Swizz attempts to deliver pieces of his past to the audience. I’m not quite sure if he’s the best lyricist/MC. However. if you’re a fan of sick beats this album should suffice. PURCHASE - Swizz Beatz - One Man Band
M.I.A. - Kala - The first music review was about my love, M.I.A. M.I.A.’s first project, “Arular,” grew to the underground due to the huge political messages pacted into such a catchy album. After traveling around the globe to work with kindred spirits in Jamaica, Trinidad, Australia and US, M.I.A. presents, “Kala.” M.I.A.’s opens up with a mid-tempo beat of, “Bamboo Banga.” About two minutes into the song the beats grows into this monster that’ll have you dancing out of control. Tracks such as, “Bird Flu,” have little village girls, booming tribal drums, and a collage of vocals and whistles. Representing the massive hysteria behind the epidemic’s of, “Bird Flu.” Tracks such as “Boyz,” “Jimmy,” and “The Turn,” are beating hard and are club friendly. If you love your M.I.A. Political tracks such as, “Hussel,” and “Mango Pickle Down River,” are defiantly for you. While, I LOVE M.I.A. for being a political activist. I have to realize there are folks who love her for her beats and over the top swagger. I was slightly disappointed that she wasn’t so in your face with Uncle Sam. But, it’s all good. I still believe this is one of the hottest well produced joints of 2007. M.I.A. should win anything and everything she’s nominated for. - PURCHASE - M.I.A. - Kala
“I’ve put people on the map, Who’ve never even seen a map. What yu’kno about young girl sale sex for food. Where young boy sacrifice the same too.” - M.I.A.
Laurie Ann Gibson, decided to address the argument between her and Diddy via. Youtube. The video shows her in a horse carriage relaxing as she spins around the city block for a quick chit-chat. She says, “I’m not a diva or trying to take over his show. They creatively framed the episode to look the way it did.” She’s currently working on her own project.
She’ll be taking a couple months off after the tour to regain strength. Once she’s rejuvenated, back to the studio.
She’s suppose to be,”A Liberator,” in this video. I can’t wait to see it!
