What’s up everyone?!  You all know how I enjoy giving new up and coming artists much love, and tonight is no exception.  I want to introduce you all to Ajani .
 I got the opportunity to ask this  Richmond, VA native, who now calls Brooklyn home a few questions, for us all to get to know him a little better.  He also has a new video out called “Hey Good Looking” which I suggest you all check out as well!

I have to admit the music is different, but if your into those late night poetry sessions then you will fit right in ;-)

Read on after the break for the interview and the music vid… Read the rest of this entry

NOW, this is the type of news and gossip that I just LOVE to share :-)

Laker player Shannon Brown and his Bride R&B singer Monica shared with the Insider‘s Kevin Frazier some details about the fairytale, second wedding that they shared with family and friends.

When asked about her expectations of turnout of the wedding, Monica shared “I was just overwhelmed. I’m glad because I didn’t think about this 50 lb train that I was dragging behind me. I just had to take a deep breath, because I was really trying not to cry.”

So many celebrities were also there for the celebration, from Kobe Bryant to LL Cool J and NeNe Leakes.  Check out the photos and video after the break!  (the video will start automatically)… The wedding was indeed beautiful! Read the rest of this entry

Well you know what they say, there are two sides to every story… and in this case three.  Nicki Minaj and her hypeman SB responded to the TMZ exclusive of them being involved in an altercation at a Dallas Hotel on monday.  Nicki was reported to have been hit in the face by a man, whereas police were called and a report was taken but NM did not want to file charges.

Both Nicki and Safaree Samuels are denying that such ever happened.   Nicki took to her Twitter account last night saying:

The fact that u believe a man either slapped or punched me in the face & didn’t leave on a stretcher w/his balls hangin off? #getaF%cknLife

The media could pee on ur leg & tell u its raining. You’d believe it. You’d believe u were an adopted martian if TMZ told u so. #stopit5

 So who do you believe?  Im not too sure yet.  TMZ is pretty creditable when it comes to breaking celebrity news.  And, according to the Dallas Observer, a police report was indeed filed about the insident.  If so, I’m sure there’s only a small amount of time before it is released somehow, someway.  I would hope that Nicki would not want to lie or cover up being slapped around.  It should not be tolerated.

DMX Busted With Drugs In Jail

First I have to say, are any of us surprised or had expected DMX to be a role model while in prison?

The once famous rapper was caught basically red handed because a recent drug test came back positive, while serving time in prison for a probation violation.  Seems that this is not the first time he was found to be breaking the rules, and this little stint may indeed make his stay just a little bit longer.  All this, according to TMZ.

I have to admit I used to enjoy his music somewhat when he first came out, until I dug deeper into his past and realized what criminal activity he used to get into.  I’m definitely not a fan.  Dude has serious issues on many fronts including in my eyes- psychological, but first in foremost his drug addiction needs to be addressed.  It’s sad.

Uh Ohh…… Somethin’ is a sturrin’, and it’s not too cool…

Rapper Nicki Minaj was hit in the mouth yesterday by a man  in Dallas area hotel.  She was in Texas preparing for a concert in the American Airlines Center Arena with Britney Spears, according to TMZ.com.

TMZ has learned … Minaj was hanging out at the pool at the fancy Palomar Hotel when she got into a very intense verbal spat with an unidentified man she was staying with.

Nicki told a hotel employee to call police … while the man went to their hotel room. Nicki followed soon after.

When cops and paramedics arrived, Nicki told authorities their poolside fight continued inside of their room … and the man hit her in her lower lip.

Well, those who are speculating think that it could be her hype-man/rumored boyfriend Safaree Samuel, since reports say she argued with someone she was staying at the hotel “with.”  Who knows, but for now, she is refusing to press charges. 

Smh, why call the police then?  I dislike lightheadedness.  Your thoughts? Read the rest of this entry

 

 

My personal opinion: Cassie is a beautiful model. I think she should make this her full-time job, and ditch the singing permanently!

She recently did a photo shoot and interview with Blank Magazine, in which she shared her thoughts on her new album & that infamous hairstyle:

On her new album
Its top secret! (smiles) I’m going to let the music speak for itself. The one thing I will say is I love it.

On who she would like to work with someday
Prince would be amazing. Isn’t that everyone’s answer to that?

On what she would be doing if she wasn’t a performer
I’d be a chef or a museum owner I’m into modern art.

On shaving her head and being a risk taker
My hair wasn’t a risk to me. I just did it. Loved it, still love it actually. And am I a risk taker?! You gotta live, no risk no reward. Life is boring if you paint inside the lines.
