The video for Cassie’s new single ‘Official Girl (ft. Lil’ Wayne)’ premiered on FN’MTV yesterday. Directed by Chris Robinson, the clip is a pretty engaging watch; Bad Boy evidently pumped quite a lot money into this move-esque effort. That said, I’m still not sold on the Danja produced song…just doesn’t move me.

Rapper Da Brat has been sentenced to three years in prison for striking a waitress with a rum bottle at Jermaine Dupri’s nightclub last year. Check out the report via Contact Music:
A Superior Court Judge ruled on Friday (22Aug08) the hip-hop hitmaker – real name Shawntae Harris – will also serve seven years probation and 200 hours of community service for the incident in addition to her jail time.
Harris, 34, was involved in the altercation at a Halloween party at Studio 72 nightclub in Atlanta, Georgia, on 31 October 2007.
The pair were reported by police to have gotten into an altercation prior to the assault – resulting in the victim’s hospitalisation and permanent facial scarring.
Harris entered a guilty plea to aggravated assault in the case.According to reports, the rapper pleaded to her weeping family as she was led out of the courtroom, saying: “I love y’all.”
Harris was previously convicted in 2000 for misdemeanor reckless conduct.
Pardon my bluntness, but good for her. No one is above the law; and as someone in the limelight you’d expect her to steer clear of such nonsense. SMH…

The video for John Legend’s brand new single, the Andre 3000 assisted ‘Green Light’, premiered on Yahoo Music today. With the song having been in heavy rotation on UK radio as of of late, this one has really grown on me. The accompanying clip, though pretty unspectacular, does the song justice and serves as one of John’s best visual offerings.
Legend’s third studio album ‘Evolver’ is set to hit stores on October 28th.

R&B star Ne-Yo debuted the video for ‘Miss Independent’ – the 2nd single to be lifed from his upcoming LP ‘Year of The Gentleman’-a few hours ago on the FN’MTV finale. The clip, which features cameos from Gabrielle Union, Keri Hilson, Lauren London and Trey Songz, really brings to life the album’s concept; something, if I’m to be honest, I was finding a little hard to grasp. Great song, even better video. Good stuff.

I really enjoyed this one. Great vocals from Jennifer, as usual, and the crowd participation made for a real good overall performance.

Our friends over at SOHH are reporting that Jermaine Dupri’s tenure as Head Of Def Jam Urban Division may be over already. Peep their report below:
After several failed projects, which includes Janet Jackson’s Discipline, Mariah Carey’s E=MC2 and Johnta Austin’s permanently shelved project it looks like the powers that be have had enough and JD’s time as head of Island Records’ urban division has come to an end.
I am being told that JD’s termination papers were being drafted this afternoon.
Ouch.
