Sunday, September 23rd 2007

This is NLT’s video for “She Said, I Said,” from their upcoming debut album Not Like Them. The song was produced by King Logan of The Royal Court. Although BOY BANDS ARE O-V-A! (Justin Timberlake made that very clear!) I’m actually feelin’ these guys but, they are signed to Marques Houston’s TUG Entertainment, there is no hope for them – I might get their album because Timbaland’s on it….

J. Holiday - Back Of My Lac

Above is said to be the official album cover to J. Holiday’s 2007 debut Back Of My Lac. The LP will include the R&B smash “Bed,” written by The-Dream. Despite half of the album already leaked, I am very much anticipating its release, so far the material is solid. Back Of My Lac hits stores October 2 and if I stand corrected so is Mario’s album. In other R&B news, J. Holiday recently did a feature with Yahoo! Music’s WHO’S NEXT? Ch-check it out!

Mel B Pawned Baby Angel Iris Off On Her Maid?

Mel B Pawned Baby Angel Iris Off On Her Maid?

Leaving your 2-month-old daughter with your cleaner for four days while you get hitched in Las Vegas doesn’t sound like great parenting skills, even by Hollywood standards. But that’s the claim made by the former housekeeper of Melanie Brown, who is involved in a rumored $9 million child support battle with baby-daddy Eddie Murphy. Tonia Lamere says Spice Girl Mel B left young Angel Iris with her while she eloped to Sin City with Stephen Belafonte.

“One evening of baby-sitting turned into four days!” Lamere tells Star magazine. “The child was sick, there was no nanny, and when Mel called, she never even asked about the baby.” Lamere also claims she was forced to buy food for baby Iris and her older half-sister (Phoenix Chi, 8) out of her own pocket during the four days Brown was away. Brown’s rep, however, says the whole story smells of green. “Melanie is a hands-on mother completely dedicated to the upbringing of her children and the well-being of her entire family,” she told us yesterday. “Any fictitious accusations to the contrary stem from greedy people looking to make a buck.” [ NY DAILY NEWS ]

Who do you believe? The maid or the mommy??

Jay-Z, L.A. Reid, and 50 Cent Speak on Kanye/50 Sales Battle

Sunday, September 23rd 2007

1 Comment

With Kanye West’s “Graduation” (Def Jam) having trumped 50 Cent’s “Curtis” (G-Unit/Interscope) in debut week sales, Def Jam honchos Antonio “L.A.” Reid and Jay-Z are celebrating. But they acknowledge West’s numbers (957,000) were bolstered by the competition, and that another sales war is not in their plans.

JAY-Z: We all know that the battle was a one-off. That’s not a template on how to do business. We know that we have challenges ahead of us [in regards to the industry's downturn] but we also know that the consumption of music is at an all-time high as well.

L.A. REID: I am really optimistic about the state of the industry. When you look at these numbers, if I add in [West's] catalog sales, he’s sold 1 million records in one week. That seemed to be a thing of the past and everyone had written it off, saying that people no longer bought albums in these numbers.

50 CENT: I am very excited to have participated in one of the biggest album release weeks in the last two years. Collectively, we have sold hundreds of thousands of units in our debut week. This marks a great moment for hip-hop music, one that will go down in history.
