Kelly Rowland recently performed her European smash ‘Work’ at the Hilfiger Sessions in Germany. I really enjoyed this performance, just watching Kelly jam with the band. Good stuff.

British chart-topper Estelle performed her smash ‘American Boy’ on The Friday Night Project a few weeks ago. She nailed it! Great performance. The band really added an extra dimension to the already awesome track. ‘American Boy’ has occupied the top spot on the Official Singles Chart here in the UK for the last three weeks.

UK singing sensation Leona Lewis has hit the promo trail hard in the US in support of her ‘Spirit’ LP, most recently stopping by Jimmy Kimmel Live. I really enjoyed this interview; it’s one of only times I’ve seen Leona let her personality shine through and she came across really well.
Having already broken records around the globe, she seems set to do the same in the US this coming week as ‘Spirit’ is almost certainly headed for the top spot on the Billboard 200 chart. What’s more, ‘Bleeding Love’ – which already hit #1 in the US three weeks ago – looks set to ascend to the coveted position once again. More power to her!
Any thoughts?
In other ‘Jayonce’ news, click here to read this NY Post article that has been making the rounds recently about the mainstream media’s lack of interest in ‘the wedding’.
We ask what other gangsta rappers she liked. And that’s when Keys drives a steamroller through the wall.
“‘Gangsta rap’ was a ploy to convince black people to kill each other,” she says, putting down the sandwich. “‘Gangsta rap’ didn’t exist.”
Come again? A ploy by whom?
She looks at us like it’s the dumbest question in the world. “The government.”
Alicia says Tupac and Biggie were essentially assassinated, their beefs stoked “by the government and the media, to stop another great black leader from existing.”

Wow. It’s kinda unexpected to see Alicia being so outspoken. It’s a pretty deep conspiracy theory, though, and I’m not entirely sure where I stand on the whole issue. You?
Your thoughts?
Though this will.i.am produced cut is far from being Mariah’s best effort – I’m really liking it for what it is – light, tongue-in-cheek, with enough hooks to have you humming along before it ends. I chose to interpret the song’s ‘I will hunt you down-esque’ lyrics comically; I mean she can’t really be serious, can she? LOL…
Hit or Miss?
“The decision to leave [the label] was totally mine,” said Valentino. “I sat down with Ludacris and Chaka Zulu, and I explained to them that it was time for me to venture out on my own. They had no problem with it; they are cool with it, no beef at all.”
I’m not buying the whole ‘it was my idea’ to leave the label thing at all; they’re probably just allowing him to save face. I guess the news of LA Reid clearing house over at DTP a couple of months ago was accurate. The hunger for a record deal must be at an all-time high these days; as more and more seem to be signing to these artist-led labels, only to receive 2nd-rate treatment i.e. DTP, G-Unit, St. Lunatics etc.
These new albums/projects are coming thick and fast this year…
