The cast of Tyler Perry’s latest movie, “Why Did I Get Married?”, paid a visit to BET’s 106 & Park last Thursday (Oct. 11) to discuss their roles in the movie. Jill Scott, Janet Jackson, and of course Tyler Perry himself, all showed up. The movie hit theaters nationwide this past Friday, and so far, while I haven’t had the chance to see it myself, I’m hearing nothing but good things about it. According to BLOOMBERG, the movie grossed at over $21 million and is currently the #1 movie in North America (US & Canada)! Definitely a good look…

I have been following this “Fundmental” group since about late 2006 so it is no surprise that United Kingdom’s very own break-out R&B act FDM (from left to right: Baby-V, Jermaine, & Kyle) has scored a major recording deal with Geffen Records earlier this Summer. The boys (now collectively known as FDM) are in the studio culminating the finishing touches on their new highly anticipated album, Backstage Pass, as we speak! Their sound is very Uptempo and “flashy”; the arrangement of harmonies are so stellar it is enticing! FDM fuses a New Age sound of Contemporary, Pop, and R&B — they are the future! They have already posted some recent material from the album Backstage Pass on their MySpace.
T.I. and his crew (including longtime girlfriend Tameka “Tiny” Cottle) were arrested Saturday evening in a Walgreens parking lot just hours before he was to perform AND receive two awards at the BET Hip Hop Awards. Word on the block is he planned to pick up machine guns and silencers bought for him by his bodyguard
T.I. is in trouble with the ATF. Federal agents nabbed the Grammy Award-winning rapper Saturday in a parking lot where he allegedly planned to pick up machine guns and silencers bought for him by his bodyguard. The arrest came just hours before he was to perform at the BET Hip-Hop Awards. The self-proclaimed “King of the South” won two awards despite his absence.
Born Clifford Harris, the 27-year-old lyricist is charged with possession of unregistered machine guns and silencers, as well as possession of firearms by a convicted felon. T.I. was sentenced to three years in prison for a probation violation on a drug conviction in 2004, but served only part of his sentence. His latest arrest came after a federal firearms dealer told the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives a man was inquiring about buying a machine gun without legally registering the weapon, according to a criminal complaint filed yesterday. After trying to buy several machine guns from an undercover ATF agent, the unnamed person began cooperating with the government and said he was buying the machine guns and silencers for Harris, the complaint said.

The song samples from Little Richard’s “The Girl Can’t Help It”, hence the “can’t help it” part. It’s alright, the video is very creative.
Platinum selling recording artist Mario returns with his third studio effort entitled Go! in stores Oct-uh … November 27th … ??? Despite the constant letdowns and frequent post-pones from Mario’s label – I, surprisingly, enjoyed the album. I heard some ultra sweet arrangements and solid production; that including The Neptunes, Stargate, Timbaland and Ne-Yo. Both erotic AND eclectic, Go! reached systemic volumes, the album had some great Uptempo and Downbeat on it. Standout tracks from the LP, in my opinion, are “Go”, “Crying Out For Me”, “Why” and “Right And Wrong Way”.
“GO” • ( FULL ) “Crying Out For Me” • ( FULL ) “Why” • ( FULL ) “Right And Wrong Way” • ( FULL )

SHAUNIE: “I WANT TO SAVE OUR MARRIAGE” » Shaquille O’Neal’s divorce battle may be postponed, as his wife Shaunie Nelson has filed papers to the court denying that her marriage is irretrievably broken down. The basketball legend filed for divorce last month claiming that his wife had been “secretive about her assets … particularly with respect to certain properties owned or titled in either (her) name alone or in other entities.” However, Nelson denies this secrecy stating that she has “nothing to hide.” The wife of Shaquille is asking the court to grant her a three-month continuance so that she can attempt to save her marriage and ignore her husband’s divorce application.

I’m sure you’ve all caught wind to this story of a 14-year-old high school student who brought guns to school after being suspended and shot rounds in the hallways directing his anger towards specific students and teachers. Check out the developing story from CNN below…
It was only after a crowd of screaming students ran past Darnell Rodgers in a stairway at his Cleveland, Ohio, high school Wednesday afternoon that he realized he had been shot. “They were screaming, ‘Oh my God! Oh my God,’” said Rodgers, a senior at SuccessTech Academy near downtown Cleveland. Rodgers suddenly felt his arm “burning,” he said, and realized he had been shot in the elbow. Police have started to piece together what happened. At around 1:15 p.m. ET, 14-year-old gunman Asa Coon, who was a student at the school, walked the halls firing a gun in each hand, Cleveland Police Chief Michael McGrath said. When it was all over, five people had been shot, but the only fatality was Coon, who police said killed himself in a classroom. Police found a .22- caliber revolver and .38-caliber revolver near Coon’s body, along with a box of ammunition and three knives, said McGrath. Investigators have reason to believe some victims were specifically targeted by Coon, who had been suspended from school Monday.
“We do not believe this was a random shooting,” McGrath said. “It may have been the teachers he went to the school looking for. … I believe they disciplined him in some manner.” Rodgers was treated and released from the hospital, but others were more seriously injured. Coon shot 57-year-old teacher David Kachadourian in the back and shot a 42-year-old teacher in the chest, officials said. Edward Eckart, commissioner of EMS Cleveland, said the 42-year-old underwent surgery at MetroHealth Medical Center and was in stable condition at 8 p.m. Wednesday. Fifty-seven-year-old Kachadourian was in stable condition, he said. In addition, a 15-year-old male with a gunshot wound to his side and a 15-year-old female with a knee injury were transported to Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital, where they were in stable condition Wednesday night, Eckart said. McGrath said Coon and another student were suspended Monday after they apparently got in a fight outside the school. CONTINUE READING
