Jagged Edge take a mature step in the right direction with their new single ‘Ready’ today, releasing the love song before the October 27th release of their new album ‘J.E. Heartbreak 2.’

Responsible for her introduction to the game back in 2006, Ryan Leslie‘s short-lived run at the top with Cassie may seem to have spawned nothing more than a hit in the single ‘Me & U’ and modelling career for the stage-shy singer.

He may presently be topping headlines for calling a Canadian reporter a ‘piece of sh*t’ on live TV (click here if you missed that), but former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson is also reportedly hard at work with putting the final touches on his forthcoming biopic…starring Jamie Foxx.

According to Tyson, he and Foxx are in discussions to begin production on the film that would see the ‘Unpredictable’ singer portray him at different stages of his life using CGI technology.

“Me and Jamie Foxx are in discussion, and we gonna do it,” said Tyson, 48. “Within a year to 18 months, we’re going to do the Mike Tyson story and he’s going to portray me, and now they have this new animation; because you know Jamie’s pretty much my age so he can’t portray me but they have this new system.”
