During a recent concert at the House of Blues, Chris Brown, along with T-Pain, performed their latest single ‘Kiss Kiss’. Not that I was expecting much, but the performance was so-so. The random guys jumping up and down the stage served no purpose at all – which kinda confused me as to why they were there. Still not feeling the song – definitely not as a single – but it seems everyone is jumping on the T-Pain bandwagon nowadays, so Chris may have a hit on his hands.

This is apparently the official cover art for the ‘Her Name Is Nicole’ album.

Nice. Word has it that the album has been pushed back again. What’s up this year with album push-backs? Anyway, the CD’s release has been moved from October 16th to November 6th. I’m guessing the plan will be to release more than one single before the album drops. Nicole will now have to compete with Alicia Keys’ which comes out on the same day.

The husband of the woman who died in a car accident, which involved Brandy, believes the singer shouldn’t be out enjoying herself while he is still mourning. Marquane Hdidou’s lawyer voiced his clients anger in a statement to TMZ outside a court hearing.

Meanwhile, a judge has allowed for Hdidou, his wife’s two kids from a previous marriage, her parents and a woman also involved in the car accident to combine their lawsuits into one. All are seeking cash from Brandy. A court hearing has been set for sometime in January. No criminal charges have been filed against the singer…

As bad as I feel for the family, I’m can’t help but think that they’re trying to extort money from Brandy. The fact that criminal charges have not been brought against her reaffirms the fact that it was a tragic accident – nothing more. So why all the lawsuits? Harsh as it may sound, they need to go sit down somewhere.

At long last, the video for Nicole Scherzinger’s debut solo single ‘Whatever You Like’ has premiered. For the record, I like Nicole and definitely believe she has potential – but both the song and video are straight garbage. Nothing about the concept made any sense to me and the one thing she could have done to redeem herself – deliver with the choreography – she didn’t. The T.I. feature didn’t sway me either, although I’m sure their interaction in the vid will have tongues wagging. I expected her to come harder than this, yet so far she has failed to impress.

This one has been generating a buzz on the net as of late. Kel Mitchell, of ‘Keanan and Kel‘ fame, stars in this hilarious spoof of R. Kelly and Usher’s ‘Same Girl’. I don’t usually find Kel funny, but I can’t deny that this had me cracking up. Check it out.
