Hey, I was wondering what happen to this song, I didn’t see it on Ciara: the Evolution cd, after hearing a snippet from MTV News a while back– well it’s here, “Do It (Real Good),” produced and featured by Will.i.am. It’s a nice track, suppose to be a sample from Salt-N-Pepa’s “Push It.” Of course C C puts it down on this joint and Will.i.am is a frickin genius! If you guys don’t have the cd, Ciara: the Evolution, please go out and support.

T-PAIN – “BUY YOU A DRANK” » I already heard the single and saw the video, great summer joint, I purposely posted this video late because at first I didn’t really like the song and wasn’t into the whole snappin thing but I must say it really has growed on me surprisingly. I really don’t like the video that much but in an effort to give T-Pain some promotion I’ll post it.

» Mario … Ready, Set, Go!!!
OMG FINALLY DAMN! Mario’s third album, Go, will finally drop on the 17th of July, according to his label, after being pushed back more than one too many times. The first single, which was chosen by Mario’s fans, is going to be “How Do I Breathe,” produced by Stargate. I guess the second single will be “Crying Out For Me,” produced by Polow Da Don, which is one of my personal favorites! Guest appearences for this album will include songs by Akon, Ne-Yo and Pharrell with production by Bryan Michael Cox, Krucial Keys, the Neptunes and many more! I’ll do a BFF for these two singles soon but for now you can go to Mario’s MYSPACE to hear them both in its entirety.

» New Kelly Clarkson Single – “Never Again”
It was confirmed that Kelly Clarkson’s first single will be “Never Again,” from her third studio album My December. The video for “Never Again” was shot April 10th in Los Angeles and it also appears that a remix of the single was leaked a day before! But getting back to the new single, hardcore rock sickness! I have always loved Kelly Clarkson ever since she was on American Idol– in fact I think she is the first and only AI winner to have this much longevity throughout their career. I wish her much success if not more on this project, her last album was pure fire– hits, hits, and more hits! Can’t wait for the video, Clarkson never disappoints. Below you can listen to the radio rip of “Never Again.”

Larry Birkhead is a Stingy MofoAnna Nicole Smith’s former lover Larry Birkhead insists he won’t share his baby daughter Dannielynn with anyone. Photographer Birkhead was confirmed as the seven-month-old baby’s father on Tuesday, after a lengthy paternity battle with Smith’s longtime companion, Howard K. Stern, who is listed on Dannielynn’s birth certificate. The tragic model’s mother Virgie Arthur has claimed she “just wants to be a grandmother” – while Stern has said he will “make sure he (Birkhead) gets sole custody.” And Birkhead is hoping it stays that way.

He says, “We might go from one fight to another, but I’m hoping that’s not the case. There’s only one dad and I have no problem with anyone that has good intentions being allowed to visit the baby and see the baby and be a part of the baby’s life.” But he stresses he will not share custody as “it would imply that I’m unfit as a parent, which I’m not.”

Riiight! You keep telling yourself that. If you say it enough it might just come true! Or maybe it wont…

Tina Turner Coming Out of Retirement!Tina Turner is set to play her first show in seven years at London’s Natural History Museum to raise cash for a children’s charity. The singer will headline a benefit concert for the Cauldwell Children charity next month, according to new internet reports.

The singer, 67, tells website Soundgenerator.com, “I am delighted to be associated with a charity which reaches out to so many young people. If my songs make people dig deep into their pockets, then I will have achieved my aim.”

Those hoping to see Turner come out of retirement for the night will have to take part in the charity’s upcoming raffle. Turner is currently completing her first album in eight years.

Police Issue Warrant For DMX’s ArrestTwo arrest warrants have been issued for troubled rapper DMX after he failed to appear at separate court hearings on Tuesday and Wednesday. The hip-hop star, real name Earl Simmons, was due to appear in Yonkers City Court, New York State on Wednesday to answer charges of driving with a suspended license, stemming from an October arrest. The previous day, DMX was a no-show at White Plains City Court, New York State, for charges of speeding, changing lanes dangerously, driving without a seat belt and using a suspended license following a June arrest. White Plains Judge Brian Hansbury had given the rapper until 2pm (local time) on Wednesday to appear in court, but after he failed to show yesterday, issued a warrant.

Meanwhile, 13 miles away, Yonkers Judge Charles Wood was also issuing a warrant. The 36-year-old’s lawyer Murray Richman, says, “In truth, I do not know where he is. Why would he be hiding out from a damn traffic infraction?”

Simmons failed to appear in court last summer to answer the June 2006 charges and an arrest warrant was issued. He was jailed on June 28 last year, but released on $2,500 bail.

Damn, this fool is ALWAYS in jail!

Melanie Brown Puts Eddie Murphy’s Name on Baby’s Birth CertificateFormer Spice Girl Melanie Brown has officially listed Eddie Murphy as the father of her daughter on the baby’s birth certificate, a source close to Brown tells PEOPLE. “He’s definitely been named on the birth certificate,” says the source. Brown, 31, gave birth to the baby girl on April 3. Murphy, who once dated Brown, has said he doesn’t know who the child’s father is. Naming Murphy on the baby’s birth certificate is the latest turn in a saga between the pair. In December, before the singer officially announced her pregnancy, Murphy, 46, questioned the baby’s paternity during an interview on Dutch TV. “I don’t know whose child that is until it comes out and has a blood test,” he said after being asked about rumors that he’d fathered the baby. “You shouldn’t jump to conclusions, sir.”

Two days later, Brown put out a statement saying she was “upset and distressed at some of the comments made by Eddie.” The British born singer added: “I was astonished at what Eddie said – there is absolutely no question that Eddie is the father.” A rep for Murphy had no comment when reached by PEOPLE on Wednesday. Despite British reports that Brown has picked a name for her daughter, she has not yet chosen one, says the source, who called the stories “total rubbish.”

Thank God! Because that original name – Fortuna Daphne Bay – was NOT the business! But uhm, it’s been over a week .. when the hell is she gonna pick out a name? I hope she isn’t waiting on Eddie’s tired ass… I’m ready for that damn paternity test! What about you??

 Justin Timberlake Called Britney Spears Because he was “Worried About Her”

Justin Timberlake was so concerned about Britney Spears, who entered rehab in February, that he reached out to her, he has revealed. But Spears, who checked out of Malibu’s Promises treatment center in March after nearly a month, is on the right track, Timberlake said.

“I called her because I worried about her,” Timberlake, 26, said recently at a press day for his new movie Shrek The Third. “She’s a great woman. I’m rooting for her,” he said. “[It] seems like she’s getting everything under control now.”

Hmm, that’s funny.. Didn’t he say in GQ Magazine that he was “so far from removed that situation?” Make up your damn mind Justin!

Marc Anthony Joins the “I Don’t Wanna Pay My Taxes” ClubMarc Anthony is a cardholding member of the “I’m rich bitch, and I don’t think I should pay my taxes like everybody else because I’m a celebrity and I can do that” club! Supposedly ol’ dude hasn’t paid taxes for four years in a row and owes Uncle Sam $2.5 million in back taxes and fines. And he has to pay them back by June 1 … OR ELSE!

Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau says the New York-born singer was not charged because he relied on his accountant to file his tax returns. Jennifer Lopez, who married Anthony in 2004, was not a subject of the investigation. Anthony’s manager and brother, Bigram Zayes, and Philip Sarna, the business manager and accountant for Anthony and his three companies, also failed to pay their personal city, state and federal income taxes. Those companies, which handle Anthony’s tours, the publication of his music and lyrics and his management, collect income which is then turned over to Anthony. Both men will be sentenced in June.

What is it with these celebrities not paying their taxes? Do they feel that they should be exempt? I know he had an accountant filing for him, but that’s the kind of thing you should check up on .. at least every once in a while. He ain’t got nothin else better to do anyway, lol.
