The video for Chris Brown’s new single ‘Kiss Kiss’ debuted today on BET’s 106 & Park. I’m guessing the fact that I’m not a fan of the song is hindering me from liking the otherwise decent video. Still, Chris delivers with the choreography (as usual) and it definitely trumps the mess that was the ‘Wall to Wall’ video.
What do you think of the video?
I know you don’t usually see Britney Spears around these sides and neither do I have a particular interest in her music, yet it’s evident her ‘comeback’ is an event in itself. Two new tracks from her forthcoming album have surfaced today; first single ‘Gimme More’ and ‘Cold As Fire’ (written by T-Pain).Keyshia Cole performed her smash hit ‘Let It Go’ on Yahoo’s Pepsi Smash recently. She has really stepped it up with the live performances as of late and I thought she did pretty good here – although the choreography was kinda ‘amerteurish’. Still, it’s her voice that she’s loved for, so it’s all good.
In other Keyshia news, ‘Let It Go’ is currently the #1 most played track on US radio. The video for the track also occupies the top spot on BET’s 106 & Park.

Following the controversy surrounding his comments on black women, producer Polow Da Don has has spoken out – again justifying his comments:AllHipHop.com: So do you stand by your statements?
Polow Da Don: Oh definitely. It has nothing to do with me, these effects. I didn’t make this stuff up. Only thing where people got misled is that I said I prefer a White woman, and that’s not the case at all. Really, I date all types of women. It was a stage in my life when I started dating a lot of White women- that was just a stage in my life. Right now, I date girls I like. I don’t base it off of any shade or color when I meet a girl now. They linked my comments about the Black family and Black women with the “King of the White Girls” and [the fact that] I dated White girls. That’s where it all went wrong. So when I was comparing Black women to White women, that has zero to do with me dating White women. What I was saying was factual though. Ladies and gentlemen agreed, n****s and b******s got mad.

Talk about pouring fuel on fire…
A host of stars came out to celebrate with Jermaine Dupri at the opening of his new nightclub, Studio 72, in Atlanta last night. Celebs in attendance included Usher and wife Tameka Foster, Nelly, Monica and T-Boz. As expected Dupri’s girlfriend, Janet Jackson (who was looking on-point), accompanied the hit-maker to the event.
Soulja Boy stopped by BET’s 106 & Park earlier this week to perform his smash hit ‘Crank That’. I liked the performance, though he must be one of the first rapper’s I’ve seen use a backing track…it’s all good though. Though some of our international visitors may not know who he is, they will do soon. ‘Crank That’ as well the dance that goes along with it have taken the US by storm; where the song currently sits at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and is still rising.

Since the much hyped finale of ‘Making The Band 4’ this past Sunday, many have been looking for the ballad version of the group’s song ‘I Want You Exclusive’ – which was performed during the live telecast. You can listen to the track below. I’m definitely liking this one; it’d be good if they recorded this version in the studio.
Though Amerie’s third album, ‘Because I Love It’ has been a moderate success over here in Europe – spawning two UK top 10 singles, the CD’s US release seems to be in jeopardy. Following a number of push-backs, the CD was re-scheduled for Stateside release in ‘Summer 2007 ‘, yet it’s status now reads ‘TBD’ (to be decided). Sources are claiming that the ‘One Thing’ singer will soon be (or may have already been) dropped by her US label.
Singer Keyshia Cole graces the cover of Sister 2 Sister magazine’s October issue. Though I’d say she’s looking good, something feels a little off with the shot – can’t think what it is though…
Upon hearing the snippet of Alicia Keys’ new single ‘No One’ last week, I was kinda sceptical about the track as well as the direction of her forthcoming album ‘As I Am’. However, having listened to the track in it’s entirety, I’m definitely liking it more. This soulful mid-tempo isn’t far removed from the sound she has channeled on her past efforts and is sure to please fans and critics alike. Alicia’s third studio album ‘As I Am’ hits stores November 13th.
Don’t usually do this, but I thought to take a minute to wish Michael Jackson a Happy Birthday. The undisputed King of Pop turned 49 today. I’m just hoping he hurries up and drops that new album of his to remind the imitators, and the world at large, of who really sits at the top.Home | About TGJ | The Splash | The Word | Advertise | Contact Us | Privacy Policy | Cookie Policy | DMCA
