Give it up!

12 05 2008

Amy Poehler does all types of things to my funny bones. “I am a sore loser.” With the delegate count, popular vote, and superdelegate count all against Clinton, I’m really wondering why I watch MSNBC everyday waiting for her to give it up. Excuse the lion noises at the beginning of the video, these days I don’t know what in the hell has gotten into this video uploaders.





New Music: Ashanti, Akon, & the other one – Body on Me

12 05 2008


That’s bananas!

Ashanti’s label, UniversalMotown just released a 90-sec snippet of this new fangled track called Body on Me. Having prior knowledge of the track’s existance, I couldn’t careless about the song until I heard that Nelly and Akon were on it. For a second I had to re-evaluate myself for stanning for the underdog all of the damn time. Getting Nelly and Akon on a track at the same time is like getting Fantasia and Britney Spears help write your novel.

But I digress.

The track doesn’t seem half-bad. From what I’ve heard in previews, Ashanti has definitly done better this go ’round, but I can see this on the radio everyday. Just one question however: “Wanna get in them drawz and bang it out ’til the morning”?

Oh, really Akon? Ashanti featuring Nelly & Akon – Body on Me (snippet)

Soulja Boy uses his MySpace-Fu on Steve Harvey. Surprisingly, he has better typing skills than Jennifer Hudson. That Grape Juice.





Mary J. finally gets it.

13 01 2008

Poor Mary J. Blige.

Mary J. Blige has a love-hate relationship with her fans, she reveals in the new issue of Vibe, out Tuesday. They don’t seem to like her when she’s happy — but she doesn’t want to be dark and depressed just to make them happy. “When I took the chance to show people I can be happy, I lost a million of my fans,” she told the magazine. “I was like, ‘I’m gonna have to lose y’all in order for us to live, because if I keep going down this dark hole, we’re all gonna die together. I’m gonna slit my wrists or take some pills, and it’s gonna be over.” That’s why Blige feels obliged, more than ever before, to write love songs that she dedicates to her husband. “That’s my buddy, my best friend, my business partner,” she said. “He’s got my back like nobody’s ever had my back. I feel like God used him to come and pull me together.”

I guess she finally noticed her naggin’ ass stans are never-ever satisfied. I still bought your album, B. Which is sellin’ quite smashingly if I do say so my self. Growing Pains is a hit-album, however, realistically with the lack of initial hype for her project, had this CD came out in February, lawd knows it’d take forever to catch on. Thank the lawd for Christmas sales. However, Mary J. DOES have somethin’ to feel just fine fine fine fine fine fine about. Whoo.

Also getting Mary’s back is Bill Cosby’s wife, Camille, who helped inspire the themes on Blige’s Growing Pains. “Bill Cosby called me like, ‘My wife loves you! She says there’s a song you need to write about love,’ ” Blige tells the magazine. “I finally called Bill back and said, ‘We got the record.’ He says, ‘Mrs. Cosby will be so glad to hear that.’ I damn near cried.”





Cassie’s got that comeback.

12 01 2008

 

So get used to it. Cassie plans on taking over the charts, Rihanna-style I gather, this year when her second album hits the shelves. Stealing the ‘I’m GROWN, please believe me!’ speech Chris Brown, Tiffany Evans, Ciara, and Rihanna have all given linked to the release of their lastest efforts, Cassie has some interesting news about her new project.

Bad Boy R&B singer (lemme get my LOL’s in real quick) Cassie will release her as-yet-untitled sophomore album on May 20, and she says although “I hate to use the words grown-up, I really, really did since the last time around.”

“I guess I grew up a lot but I’m still in essence the same person,” says the 21-year-old singer. “Lots has changed in my life, stuff that has made me think about things differently. I’m more vulnerable and you can hear my vocals better this time around. There’s real emotion and a much realer connection with my fans.”

The album features production from Seven, Mario Winans, Bryan Michael Cox, Eric Hudson, Sean C and LV and mentor Ryan Leslie, who discovered the Connecticut native. There are no guest features recorded as of yet.

And although a first single hasn’t been released, Cassie assures it will be “a club record — something fun and danceable.” Possible contenders include the Seven-produced “My House,” the flirty “Thirsty” and the concept track “Push It,” on which Cassie sings, “Want you to light me up / keep me on my toes / gotta hold it steady.”

Cassie is not dumb. She knows that even though she has not a clue what the first record released is gonna be, she knows to keep them niggas dancing.

I’m gonna be honest, for all it’s worth, I really got a good feeling about Cassie. Cassie doesn’t give me the stomach pains Soulja Boy and Flo Rida do every morning while I’m on my morning commute. I’ma keep lookout on her project.





Beyoncé, Jay-Z, and Kizzy: the third-wheel.

12 01 2008

I enjoy this picture for some reason.

Bey, Kelly, and Jay-Z were all at some Versace Fashion Show the other day, and I must say, my man Hov’s scarf-game is. . .interesting. I swear only Jay could pull that one off. Him & Pharrell Williams. Anyway, more pictures over at BeyoncéWorld. You know you want to see them pictures. You might at well anyway, you’ll see ‘em everywhere else.





Fat Joe to Fif: “You made me richer!”

12 01 2008
Rapper & Bronx-bred Fat Joe spoke to SOHH about his life after his mega hits, G-Unit, and shit. Basically he was prepping us for his soon-to-be Wal-Mart $5.99 bin classic Elephant in the Room. This quote was hella intriguing however.
“This dude 50 Cent is a clown, we’ve been beefing what –three years?” Crack said. ” I go to every club in New York City, every hood. Have you ever seen a G-Unit member in a club? The question was eliminate, he can’t eliminate Fat Joe. Since I’ve been beefing with 50 Cent I’ve become so much richer in my life, so much more millions and keep dropping hit records. And my brother Khaled is dropping heavy records and We da Best and you see that movement. You can’t stop us. We untouchable, B.”
When will this shit stop? Pure fuckery. I believe Joey Crack’s a thorough dude, so I’m not gonna crack much on that odd ass promotion he just gave Khaled. But I have noticed to some extent what Joe said is true: people actually give a damn about him. It must be the beef, man.
Now all we have to do is get Soulja Boy, Rihanna, and Mario someone to beef with and they’ll stay in the game.




Cobwebs suuuuuuck.

Uh.

Where was I? I’ll never know.

But I felt like doing this over.





Chris Rock: 1. Eddie Murphy: 0

6 08 2007

 

FINALLY! Chris Rock makes us niggas look good (ahem, take notes Eddie). He DIDN’T father a child this week. DNA is mantra for fathering children.

SAVANNAH, Ga. – A lawyer for Chris Rock said Monday that a court-ordered DNA test proved Rock is not the father of a 13-year-old boy whose mother tried to sue the comedian for support earlier this year.

Rock’s attorney, John Mayoue of Atlanta, said a Bulloch County judge sent results of the paternity test to lawyers on both sides of the case.

“The results of the test are that Chris Rock is not the father of this child,” Mayoue said. “It is conclusive.”

The mother, however, disputed the test results.

Kali Bowyer, who lives in Bulloch County west of Savannah, tried in March to file a paternity lawsuit against Rock seeking child support and medical coverage for her son, Jordan. She withdrew the lawsuit after court officials told her it was outside the southeast Georgia county’s jurisdiction because Rock is a New Jersey resident.

However, Rock asked the Georgia court in April to start paternity proceedings to resolve the case. Bulloch County Superior Court Judge John R. Turner ordered DNA testing on Rock and the boy June 8.

Rock and his wife, Malaak, said in a statement Monday they were happy to put the case to rest. They accused Bowyer of telling “multiple lies” to sell her story to tabloids.

“We also express our deepest prayers for the welfare of Ms. Bowyer’s son who has continually been embarrassed and exposed in the media by his mother,” Rock’s statement said.

Bowyer said Monday she had never received money for her story and she believed Rock had violated a confidentiality agreement by making the paternity test results public.

LMFAO @ Chris Rock expressing “his deepest prayers” for the “welfare of Ms. Bowyer’s son”. That shit was slick as hell, and very unneeded. I love it.
