After initially confirming that the latest single from her ‘Still Standing’ LP was set to be ‘Here I Am’, Monica has announced that fan-favourite ‘Love All Over Me’ will instead serve as the album’s next release. Speaking on Twitter, she said:

The people have spoken again…and I ALWAYS listen to the people that love music. My single is now Love All Over ME..so excited…

I’m on the phone with Chris Robinson now changing the video treatment. And don’t worry impact dates AREN’T changing. Thank u guys for caring..

Granted I felt ‘Here I Am’ was the right change of pace (lyrically and production-wise) from first single ‘Everything To Me’, I have had ‘Love All Over Me’ on replay for the longest, hence have no qualms with it being the single. Here’s hoping it does well.

For those who haven’t heard the song, check it out below:

Christina Aguilera would like you to know that she has “absolutely nothing against Lady GaGa“. The aspiring diva has posted a personal note to her fans on her official website where she has denounced claims that she is  feuding with her fellow (and currently more successful) Pop star. Check out what Aguilera had to say below:

Media mogul Diddy features on the cover of the latest issue of XXL Magazine. Not one to downplay his successes, the Bad Boy spearhead apparently sees himself as ‘the undisputed champion of Hip-Hop’:

“Hands down, undisputed, I’m the undisputed heavyweight champion of hip-hop. We are going to have to deal with those facts. There is nobody that can fuck with me with what I do, which is getting busy. We are going across the board, as an entrepreneur, innovator, motivator. Who was there first? Who traveled to Europe first? The first. The first. The first. The first. I was the first.” {Source}

Hmm. As much as Diddy’s achievements should be admired, a look at what’s become of his one-time flourishing Bad Boy roster highlights exactly why his success is in no-way as wholesome as he seems to believe. I mean his mishandling of the likes of Danity Kane, 112, Day 26, and pretty much every artist ever signed to the label, as well as his still-dumbfounding signing of Cassie, kinda stains what is otherwise a very admirable ascent to the top. In a  nutshell, a great businessman? Yes. A great label head? Hell no.

In any case, do you agree with him?
