Legend Tina Turner was joined by fellow diva Cher for a special episode of the Oprah Winfrey Show in Las Vegas. As well as performing several songs, the pair were interviewed together about their storied careers, ex-Husbands (Ike Turner & Sonny Bono), upcoming tours and much more. A great interview, I must say.

Those awaiting the release of Ne-Yo’s third LP ‘Year of The Gentleman’ will be disappointed to learn that the album has been pushed back from its June 24th release to August 5th. I’m assuming Def Jam are going for the 2-single pre-album release strategy, as the set’s first cut ‘Closer’ seems to be slowing down on the charts (#54 on the Billboard Hot 100).In any case, ‘Trouble’, which will feature on the record, should help ease the wait. The R&B/Pop/Dance fusion further embraces the sound the singer/songwriter channeled on ‘Closer’. Very ‘European’ sounding. With each track I hear from the set, I’m becoming increasingly more amped for what the record will be delivering. Good stuff.

Wedding bells will ring Monday for jailed hip-hop star Remy Ma, who plans to marry her boyfriend, rapper Papoose, on Rikers Island, a source clo
se to the rapper said.
The jailhouse ceremony will take place just a day before Ma is sentenced for shooting an ex-pal during a squabble over money in the Meatpacking District last year.
Ma, 26, whose real name is Remy Smith, and the Brooklyn-born Papoose, nee Shamele Mackie, will each be allowed two guests for the wedding.
Just 24 hours later, Grammy-nominated rapper Ma will face up to 25 years in prison for shooting Makeda Barnes-Joseph in the stomach last July.
A mess.

It would appear Janet Jackson’s stalled ‘Discipline’ project is set to be given a renewed lease of life. There are murmurings that this remix of album cut (and supposed new single) ‘Can’t Be Good’, courtesy of Jamaican star Red Rat, will feature on a re-packaged version of the LP.About the track…hmm…it’s ok, I guess. Considering I’m not at all a big fan of the original, it’s hardly surprising that this doesn’t really move me. If there is truth to the talk of re-release, I say drop a completely new/unheard cut, followed by what the masses seem to be liking most – ‘LUV’ and/or ‘2Nite’. Though, by no means a masterpiece, ‘Discipline’ does have a lot of ‘hit single’ potential; potential that if wasted would be real unfortunate.

It’s great to see the same Will Smith that we all know and love from ‘The Fresh Prince’ doing big things in Hollywood these days. Judging by this trailer, the 39 year old actor’s latest effort, superhero flick ‘Hancock’, looks to be winner. The action-packed movie is set to hit theatres on July 1st.
Will you be going to see ‘Hancock’?
Teen R&B star has joined forces with Keri Hilson for this brand new cut titled ‘Superhuman’. Set to feature on the re-release of Chris’ sophomore effort ‘Exclusive’, the track is much better than I had anticipated. The oddly matched pair trade verses over the R&B/Pop inspired mid-tempo production, meshing surprisingly well. Perhaps the re-release will be worth it after all. ‘Exclusive: the Forever Edition’ hits stores June 3rd.Hit or Miss?

Bad Boy’s Cassie is currently readying her still-untitled sophomore LP for a September release. In the meanwhile, another cut from the set has surfaced – the Bryan Michael Cox produced ‘2 The Morning’. I’ll be honest in saying that I greet much of Cassie’s material with a lot of scepticism (for obvious reasons), however I’m really feeling this. B. Cox switched it up from his trademark ‘crunk ballad’, delivering a sure-fire club banger in the process; and, let’s face it, a Cassie track is only as good as its beat.
