I’m sure you remember me posting about Def Jam’s new artist Rocko and his new single called “Umma Do Me” not too long ago? Here is the video premiere. View Simple Plan’s and Baby Bash’s (featuring Sean Kingston) videos after the cut.. CONTINUE READING

Lupe Fiasco returns with his sophomore effort Lupe Fiasco’s The Cool (1st & 15th, Atlantic) which hits stores December 18th, included with Fiasco’s new LP is the first single lifted “Super Star” featuring Matthew Santos and street single “Dumb It Down (which was made into a “virtual buzz” video on Youtube). Now you know I couldn’t wait for this album, ever since Food & Liquor I was hooked! I swear this man is underrated due to lackadaisical promo, every time I would listen to that album and say who’s it by people would be like, “who’s that?” Then I let them HOLD the album and they do not return it. I’m so serious, Fiasco is … the truth! His metaphors and approach are just so stellar and inspirational at the same time! Same case with his latest album, The Cool. I think it’s fairly up to par with F&L. My favourite tracks are “Gold Watch,” “Little Weapon,” “Superstar,” “Go Go Gadget Flow” and “The Coolest.”

Bow Wow and his other half hit up 106 and Park today to deliver a performance of their new song together “Girlfriend” and to promote their joint-album “Face Off,” which hit stores today. The album is currently in competition with Mario’s “Go!” and The Dream’s “Love (Me All Winter) / Hate (Me All Summer). I just hope O didn’t think he was fly with that damn scarf and rocking the “crooked preacha” look! Doesn’t he look like one of those preachers who have about 20 offerings in one service?

Anyhow, my baby Gabrielle Union was there as well to promote her new movie, “The Perfect Holiday,” which will be released tomorrow, December 12th! Gabby’s co-stars in the movie include Queen Latifah, Terrence Howard, Katt Williams, Faizon Love, Morris Chestnut (who also appeared with Gabby), and more.

 

Uhm, yeah … the last time I checked, Paris Hilton and “Hero” didn’t belong in the same context, but whatever. The popular socialite is being hailed as a hero after “rescuing” a little person injured as part of an Oompa Loompa act during Art Basel Miami Beach this past Saturday night, the NY Daily News is reporting.

The shocking accident happened during a Beacher’s Madhouse performance, sponsored by Ariva, at Cameo nightclub. According to our witness, the unruly crowd shoved performer Robin Sherwood – in full costume and orange makeup – into a metal stage support that sliced open his leg. But only Hilton seemed to notice that Sherwood was in real trouble.

“Paris screamed for help and jumped up to move everyone away from him,” says our witness. “She held Robin’s hand and said the sweetest things to keep him calm. She stayed with him until he was safely in the ambulance on his way to the hospital.” Sherwood needed 50 stitches and is recovering at the Versace mansion in South Beach.

Yeah, it looks like they’ll use that word for just about anyone now-a-days. I spared the life of a squirrel this morning on my way to school. Does that make me a hero?
