Beyonce on the Set of Samsung Commercial
Â
There’s just no stopping this girl is it! Here Beyonce is photographed yesterday in NYC on the set of a commercial video shoot for popular electronic device maker Samsung. What she has in her hand looks like an MP3 player, but it could also be a phone and mp3 player combo … we’ll just have to wait and see. But at a glance, whatever it is, it looks hot! But not as hot as my baby Beyonce *wink*

LaLa Vazques and Carmelo Anthony, Now Proud Parents!
Denver Nuggets all-star Carmelo Anthony and his fiancee, MTV VJ La La Vazquez, are proud parents of a baby son, Kiyan Anthony. Vazquez gave birth to the little boy at 1:35 pm Wednesday. He weighs a healthy five pounds, 9 1/2 ounces and he’s 18 1/2 inches long.
Anthony’s agent, Calvin Andrews, told the Denver Post that he thought fatherhood would “help him mature more, see the world differently. It’s been overwhelming, but he’ll be fine.”
No word on how much time Vazquez will take off from her job at MTV, but it’s been reported that Anthony will return to work on Friday, when the Nuggets go head-to-head with the Pistons. Congratulations guys, and I wish you the best of luck with your new jobs as mother and father!
The Timbs Wanna Help Britney
TimbaLAND and TimberLAKE that is!Â
Timbaland, who’s crafted hits for Justin Timberlake and Nelly Furtado, wants to help Britney Spears reclaim her once-stellar career. “I feel her pain, it really bothers me,” the 34-year-old rapper-producer says in an interview in Entertainment Weekly magazine’s March 16 issue. “I’m the type of person who tries to save the world. I just want to take her away, go overseas, and work (it) out.” Timbaland says he invited Timberlake, his “best friend” and Spears’ ex-boyfriend, to be part of that plan.
“I asked Justin, `How would you feel about me working with Britney?’ I had to ask him that,” Timbaland is quoted as saying. “I said, `Would you do it with me?'” The 26-year-old “SexyBack” singer said he would, according to Timbaland, who notes: “She’s just gotta be serious.” Timberlake’s spokeswoman, Sonia Muckle, referred inquiries to Timbaland’s spokeswoman, Monique Idlett, who didn’t immediately respond to a phone call Wednesday from The Associated Press. Gina Orr, a publicist at Jive Records, Spears’ label, didn’t immediately respond to an e-mail message.
Last month, Spears, 25, checked into Promises Malibu drug and alcohol rehabilitation center in California, capping a week of bizarre behavior in which she entered and exited rehab twice, shaved her head bald and went out clubbing with friends. “I just want to hold her hand,” Timbaland says. “I want her to be in my camp, to be around Justin. I need Justin to talk to her. Help her, please!”
Chris Brown: “The thang itself look like a red hot dog!”
Chris Brown made a guest appearance on NYC’s popular radio station Hot97 earlier this week where he officially dispelled the rumors that pics of his manhood leaked online.
Me, personally, I’m gon keep it 100 with you with the whole picture situation, it’s completely false. But at the same time, as soon as you get like a level of clout or a little bit of power, something is gonna happen. Not sayin necessarily a picture is gonna show up, but it’s gon be something, that somebody is gonna be like, ‘oh, such and such did this, such and such did that.’
…And I’ve looked at the pictures. My manager woke me up in the morning, and I’m like ‘Yo! What The Heck…?’ I’m like ‘Yo, that’s not even me!’ I’m lookin at two pictures of two different dudes abs, like the ab muscles.. And the thang itself, I’m like ‘Dude, that look like a red hot dog…’
A red hot dog?? Lol that is CLASSIC! Anyhow, even though this is all false, things like this make me glad that I don’t own a sidekick!! *wink* You can check out the video from the interview after the cut.
New Artist Alert: DG Yola
Â
Nineteen-year-old Mario Talley, aka Da Great Yola, hails from the Allen Temple section of Atlanta, GA. In 2003 at the age of 13, Yola began rapping and caught the attention of current manager and partner in Power Hittas Records, Lady B. He was constantly spitting flows, while at the time working in her restaurant and it wasn’t long before it was apparent that the youngster had a knack for the craft.
Yola has performed at the hottest clubs in the ATL and is now beating up the streets with his hit single “Ain’t Gon Let Up.” This Next Generation superstar has a unique style that is universal and captures listeners from all walks of life. His music bridges the gap between the North, South, East and West Coast Genres’ of music. More importantly Yola’s stage presence and performance swagger, set him apart from other down South rappers. He is bringing “Gutta Music” back to the scene at a time where “Snap Music” is at an all time high. As Yola would say “I brought it back to the block!”

Deemi Reveals “Soundtrack of My Life”
Â
Family Ties/Dangerous LLC/Atlantic recording artist Deemi is set for the world premiere of her eagerly anticipated debut video, “Soundtrack of My Life,” based on a true story. The companion clip – directed by Syndrome (Pretty Ricky, Lupe Fiasco, Mike Jones) – to the Brooklyn-based singer/songwriter’s rising R&B smash was unveiled March 2nd on the “World’s Most Dangerous Site,” AllHipHop.com.
“Soundtrack of My Life” will impact at Urban radio outlets nationwide in April, having already taken New York City by storm with raved-about rotation on the city’s influential Hot 97. Deemi’s much anticipated debut album, also dubbed “SOUNDTRACK OF MY LIFE,” is slated to drop into stores coast to coast on June 5th. “Deemi has taken her truly remarkable real life experience and turned it into a riveting personal soundtrack with universal appeal,” said Atlantic Records Chairman/CEO Craig Kallman. “Since signing her to Atlantic, we have watched her channel her personal stories of deep struggle and ultimate survival into the creation of a moving album of extraordinary power, spirit, and emotion. This is a landmark premiere that we believe will establish Deemi as one of the most important new and compelling voices in modern music.”
I’m Scared of You Kelis!
Singer Kelis was arrested early Friday morning in Miami Beach after screaming racial obscenities at two female police officers who were posing as prostitutes. Damn. She’s bossy! The officers were working an undercover operation in South Beach, when cops say Kelis started screaming racial slurs at the women. She continued screaming and rushed toward them, and had to be restrained by friends, a police report said. According to the report, Kelis’ “actions caused people walking by to stop and form a crowd. The sidewalk was blocked by the disturbance, causing people to walk in the street and causing traffic to stop.” Kelis, the wife of rapper Nas, was charged with two misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and for resisting arrest. A rep for Kelis had no comment.
I’m mad at that mugshot! rotflmfao .. yeah, she IS Bossy!!
Video Premiere: Lloyd – “Get It Shawty”
[youtube MR6oR-JG3nw]
Well here’s Lloyd’s newest video – “Get It Shawty.” I have got to admit, when Lloyd first hit the scene with that tired ass song he had with Ashanti, I had to go to sleep on him – sorry, but I had no other choice! But this new album appears to show some growth, either that, or these first 2 singles are the only songs worth something on the album (which I hope is NOT the case). But anyhow, this song does not top “Want You f/ Lil Wayne” by any means, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that it’s still hot! Anyhow, check out “Get It Shawty” below!
Chris Brown’s Sidekick was NOT Hacked
Sorry folks and teeny-boppers worldwide, but Christopher Brown best known as “Chris Brown” does not have any pics of his man-meat online. So if you were dumb enough to pay $10 for a few pics, then unfortunately you paid to see some other guy’s thing-thing. Chris Brown’s record label has said that it was not him, and “He doesn’t have any pornographic pictures of him in his sidekick and it hasn’t been hacked.” For those of you who don’t know what the hell I’m talking about, check this out!

Musiq Soulchild Interview to Be Posted Later This Week
Â
Our interview with Musiq Soulchild went pretty well today. He answered all of our questions, and he seems like a pretty honest and down-to-earth guy. Unfortunately, the software we use to record interviews kind of messed up on us and the audio is not synchronized. I will try my best to pull out some parts of the interview, but you won’t be able to able to hear the audio this time around. But the good news is that we isolated the problem, and we are positive that something like this won’t happen again in the future. But all is not lost! We are scheduled to do another interview with Musiq sometime after his album, “Luvanmusiq” drops in March, so I’m looking really forward to that!
