Peep Solange on the cover of the September/October issue of ‘Fashizback’.
It’s quite clear to see where they were trying to go with this one. Unfortunately, between the hideous eye make-up and the cover’s generally cheap aura, they missed the mark – by a long shot.

In a recent interview with VIBE, the ever-eclectic Solange lifted the lid on the recording process for her 3rd studio album (set for an October release), describing its sound as “80s R&B meets new wave dance-rock”.
During the insightful piece (spotted over at Gossip On This), the youngest of the Knowles clan also talked about her critics, Beyonce, the handling of her last album ‘Sol-Angel & The Hadley Street Dreams’, being an independent artist now, Janelle Monae and so much more. An awesome read.

The youngest of the Knowles clan, Solange, has been on a hiatus of sorts since the release and subsequent poor selling of her ‘Hadley Street Dreams’ LP (criminally underrated).
In her time away from the limelight, the 23 year old has taken to DJ’ing, spinning special sets at a number of industry events. Peep her (above and below) doing her thing at Tao Beach this weekend.
She needs to hurry with that new album! (-Runs off to play ‘Tony’ -)

Solange Knowles has started working on her next studio album. The singer has headed to Australia to team up with the alternative rock band Midnight Juggernauts and is reportedly planning to release the LP independently. No indication of when the album will hit stores has been confirmed. {Source}
Solange has been a mainstay on BET Centric for the since 2008 without showing any signs of slowing down. Her music has really gathered a strong following in the Neo-Soul and traditional R&B circles so I expect that this news will excite many of her fans. However, she will have to work twice as hard to get public attention without label support. Even with her father’s assistance, an artist without a label always has to fight an uphill battle if they hope to be commercially viable. Let’s see if she could pull it off.

After months full of murmuring and hearsay, it has today been confirmed that Beyonce‘s mother Tina Knowles is divorcing the singer’s father (and manager) Mathew after 29 years of marriage.
Interestingly, the power couple’s separation was legally filed back in November (as the pic below shows, courtesy of Bossip), yet only a few hours ago made its way out into the media:
Whatever the reason for their parting (which I’m sure will form the basis of many a debate), 29 years of marriage resulting in a divorce is quite sad. Sigh…

Pop royalty Janet Jackson has been here in London this weekend for a number of shows. Peep her leaving Mr Chows restaurant in Knightsbridge, West London last night. Tidbit: That ‘hair’ is looking good!
Ms. Jackson poses it up in this shot with an 11 year old who had flown over 200 miles to see her perform on the X-Factor. When the young girl also said she’s a major fan of Janet’s late, great brother Michael, the 43 year old shed a tear and thanked her. Awww!
The youngest of the Knowles clan, Solange, hit the town in Miami with singer Janelle Monae this past weekend. Not sure we’re feeling the get-up on ol’ Solo.
Actress Vivica Fox hit up Hollywood’s Millions of Milkshakes last night to mix her own celebrity milkshake. If ever there was a poster-child for reclaiming one’s looks after botched surgery, it would be Aunt Viv. After a rough patch, which saw her looking worse for wear more times than not, she has really bounced back this year. She looks great! {Spotted over at The YBF}
Rapper Nelly poses it up with his daughter, Chanell Haynes, and mother (below) at his 4th annual charity Black & White Ball in St. Louis over the weekend.
International star Kelly Rowland works it out on the red carpet of a party she hosted at the Mur Mur Atlantic City yesterday. She looks great!
What do you think of the looks?
Friday, November 13th 2009
The youngest of the Knowles clan, Solange, recently put her own spin on Indie band Dirty Projectors single ‘Stillness Is The Move’. Interestingly, she works into the mix Erykah Badu’s ‘Bag Lady’.
WOW! She knocked this one out of the park – literally. Vocals, arrangements, it’s soulfulness… everything! Love, love, love it! At a certain point a time, I was a little cynical about Solange’s foray into the ‘alternate’ / niche market, however having spent little of a year in the listening company of her sophomore LP ‘Sol-Angel & The Hadley Street Dreams’ and seen her live, I doubt no more. A true talent!
