Controversial rapper Eminem has just announced that he will be re-releasing his hit album ‘Relapse’, which has sold over 1.5 million units to date. Mariah Carey’s biggest fan collaborated with partner 50 Cent and producer Just Blaze on the double-disc ‘Relapse: Refill’ project which will feature seven new songs. The LP will serve as a replacement to the previously announced ‘Relapse 2′ LP that the rapper promised to hit stores by the end of the year. ‘Relapse: Refill’ drops on December 22nd.

Eminem has managed to remain a major sales force on the charts since his debut almost a decade ago. However, with his new material becoming less inspired with each release, I find it incredible that he managed to sell as many records as he did this year. Maybe he ought to share his secrets with 50 because it is evident that he is in desperate need of a hit.

Thoughts?

As Britney Spears continues to break records with her hugely successful ‘Circus’ tour, the 28 year old’s latest video ‘Radar’ premiered today. Serving as the 4th release from her Platinum selling ‘Circus’ LP, the clip – to put it rather bluntly – was a bore-fest. Of course, first springing to mind is the fact that there was no choreography – which considering Britney’s recent showings was perhaps for the best. Above all, the actually video, it’s concept and execution missed the mark IMO.

I don’t feel it fair to judge all artists in the same vein, after all each have their own strengths. Hence Ms. Spears gets an ‘OK’ from me, and I’m sure several others, based on all she’s been through. I’m kinda looking at this period as her rediscovering her mojo. However, should she still not have re-learned how to dance and ‘bring it’ overall on her next project, a full-time mother vacancy might just be one she should take up. Harsh? Perhaps. Yet, watching her churn out mediocrity, knowing what she was once capable of, IMO kinda tarnishes whatever legacy she is to leave (See also: Mariah Carey).

What do you think of the video?

Damn!!! Having been one of those waiting to hear some facts, rather than indulging in the unconfirmed rumors, I must say Chris *really, really, really* played himself with this. He’s done, finished, gone IMO. If Ms. Fenty opts to stay with him, as reports have suggested, we can say hello to our next Whitney and Bobby. SMH…

CHICAGO (AP) — Singer R. Kelly has been found not guilty on the first 7 of 14 counts at a child pornography trial. The jury deliberated less than a day.

Kelly was charged with 14 counts of videotaping himself having sex with an underage girl, who prosecutors say was as young as 13. If convicted, he faces a minimum of four years in prison and a maximum of 15 years. He would also have to register as a sex offender in Illinois.

The jury — nine men and three women — was given the case Thursday.

The key question for the jurors was whether they believe it was Kelly in the video, as prosecutors contend. Kelly’s attorneys say it wasn’t him. {Source}
