This feature on “Who Owns the Track?” we have ‘Southern Hummingbird’ Tweet and my girl Ciara! “My Dear” will be Tweet’s first single from her upcoming album tentatively titled Love, Tweet. Now, keep in mind, this is not the finalized version I believe. Originally, this was suppose to be a track featuring Ciara from T.I.’s T.I. vs T.I.P. but it end up being unreleased; and given to Tweet. Luckily, I got dibs on Ciara’s version, the FULL version, with NO DJ! Now, hmm, I need you guys’ help . . . Who Owns the Track?

• GROUP SPOTLIGHT: FUN*DMENTAL •

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.
• PRODUCER’S SPOTLIGHT: NATE ‘DANJAHANDZ’ HILLS •

I believe I previously spotlighted this guy and stated that he was going to be BIG! Declared commonly as “Timbaland’s protégé” Nate ‘Danjahandz‘ Hills (or Danja for short) is also the prophet of our time already scoring a major solo producing for Britney Spears, Madonna, and Missy Elliott’s new project just to name few. I really love and respect Timbaland but he really has nothing on this young man, who has mastered his craft studying piano and percussion since his pre-teens. Timbaland does reinvent his work every so often, I will give him that, but it is usually redundant with the same kick drum. I heard Beyoncé will be collaborating with Timbaland on her new project - WRONG BEYONCÉ - get Danja (he is the future) and Timbaland will not be hot anymore when your album releases. CONTINUE READING

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.
