Missy Elliot is giving her fans the opportunity to name her upcoming album, due late spring 2008, via her official site, missy-elliot.com. The contest closes February 20th and the winner will be announced on March 2nd. The winner will receive credit on Missy’s album and a $500 “Respect Me” Adidas gift card.

$500? Shit, at least make it a G lol. I know “Misdemeanor” ain’t that broke! Well, I don’t know … she might be, seeing as she spends at least $1 million on every video she makes. I don’t know if that’s 100% true, but it’s something I heard a while back. Not totally unbelievable since all of her videos have a lot of special effects and ish… And her new video is in 3D, so yeah, it might be true lol.

And what’s with this “album credit?” Unless it’s going to be directly under the title on the front/back/side packaging, then that’s really no prize. Who actually looks in the album credits? No, better yet … who still cops CDs on the regular? Lol.

The Los Angeles County Coroner’s office has revealed that prescription cough syrum and sleep apnea contributed to the untimely death of UGK member Chad “Pimp C” Butler. Assistant chief coroner Ed Winter made it clear that the rapper did not overdose, but instead died from ingesting “Promethazine and Codeine,” which is frequently mixed with flavored candy and mixed to make a drink known as “sizzurp.” [ Anyone remember 8-Ball's hit single "Sippin' on some Sizzurp? ] Winter also stated Pimp C suffered from a condition known as sleep apnea, a common sleeping disorder that blocks the air passages during sleep, and causes people to temporarily stop breathing. The prescription cough syrup mixed addition to his sleep apnea, ended in Pimp C’s accidental death.

According to CNN, Senators Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are only separated by less than 1% when it comes to the votes cast on Super Tuesday.

NEW YORK (CNN) — Just how sharply are Democrats divided between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton? Of all the votes cast on Super Tuesday for the two candidates nationwide, they are only separated by 0.4 of a percentage point. By midday Wednesday, 14,645,638 votes were reported cast for either Obama or Clinton on Tuesday. Clinton had won 7,350,238 of those votes (50.2 percent) while Obama captured 7,295,400 votes (49.8 percent).

Most precincts had reported 100 percent of their votes by Wednesday, though some districts had yet to complete their count. Many of those votes are in in New Mexico, where CNN has yet to declare a winner, and in California, where a sizeable number of absentee votes have yet to be tallied.

Some of you may remember 17-year-old Teyana Taylor from MTV’s My Super Sweet Sixteen, and some of you may have either agreed or disagreed with Mike on this particular post. Whatever the case may be, the latest addition to Pharrell Williams’ StarTrack family is filming her very first music video for her single “Google Me, Baby” and you can check out some shots from behind the scenes on yesterday’s shoot below, and after the cut. The video appears to feature cameos from Jazze Pha, Polow da Don, Omarion, and … Raz B? What hole did he crawl out of, and who let him do it? Anyhow, be on the look-out for Teyana when her debut album “From the Planet of Harlem” drops this spring.

The race is getting tighter and tighter with results from “Super Tuesday” still flowing in. So far, Sen. Barack Obama has taken the following states: Alabama, Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, Georgia, Idaho, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, and Utah, bringing his total win (for Super Tuesday) to 10. And Sen. Hillary Clinton has won the following states: Arizona, Arkansas, California, Massachusetts, New York, Oklahoma, and Tennessee, bringing her Super Tuesday total win to only 7. But results are still coming in, and technically, Hillary Clinton is still winning (overall in the race), since she has the most delegate votes. So far she has 825 del. votes, while Barack only has 732. Only time will tell who’ll have the most delegate votes after every state who participated in Super Tuesday reports 100%.

All of the polls are closed, and the results are swarming in with over 20 states reporting results from “Super Tuesday!” So far, Baracka Obama has won Georgia, Illinois, and Alabama, while Hillary Clinton has taken Massachusetts, New York, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Tennessee. These are just the definite wins. Polls are just now closing on the west coast, so throughout the evening/morning, I’ll be posting results as they come in. CNN should keep you covered ’til then…

Well, that took a total of 3 days! A few days ago, when I posted about him shutting Paris Hilton down and making her cry at her own party, I allowed him to get on my good side. Now, I’m seeing this video of him talking to Fox about which candidate (Obama or Clinton) he’s endorsing. Now, before I continue, let me clarify. When it comes to endorsing/supporting a president, I can’t knock anyone for not going for who I’m going for. Because afterall, we all go for different people, for different reasons, when it comes to choosing who you want to be president. So the fact that he’s going for HIllary Clinton doesn’t phase me. It’s what he said about why he’s not going for Barack Obama.

I just think she can do a good job. Ain’t nothing bad about Obama, in my eyes either, but I just think Hillary would be my choice. And I’m not sure if America’s ready for a black president. I think they might kill him.

Him going for Hillary Clinton isn’t why he’s back on my bad side. His blatant ignorance is why he’s on my bad side. Why would you say some bullshit like that to a reporter? Something that you KNOW is going to be on national television. I just don’t get it… Pinhead, indeed! As an African American, am I the only one embarrassed by that statement?
