Many of you will recognize Nicole Scherzinger as the lead (and only) singer from the Pussycat Dolls. Having put the group the hiatus, Scherzinger is set to release her first solo album ‘Her Name Is Nicole’ this September. The above pic is taken from the set of the album’s first single ‘Whatever You Like’ – which features rapper T.I. Produced by Polow Da Don (‘Promise’, ‘Like This’ etc), the track is an uptempo club banger. Be on the look out for the song and video in the upcoming weeks.

An on-going feud between Michael Jackson’s long-time rep, Raymone Bain, and Fox News reporter Roger Friedman has forced Bain to reveal details of the pop superstar’s comeback. In yet another of his weekly ‘Jackson Bashings’, Friedman alledged the singer fabricated claims of a new CD and is, indeed, ill -with an addiction to pain-killers. Along with denying the allegations, Bain outlined Jackson’s immediate plans for the future. Speaking to MJStar, Bain said ‘He [Michael] is going to release several singles prior to the album being released. He’s finishing up the first 3-4 now’, later adding that the singles will be released before the end of this year. Contributors to the album are set to include Will.I.Am, Rodney ‘Darkchild’ Jerkins and Ne-Yo.The much anticipated video for Ciara and 50 Cent’s new single ‘Can’t Leave ‘Em Alone’ premiered today. Considering the pre-hype, I found the end-product to be kinda anti-climatic. There was little to no chemistry between Ciara and 50 -with the video looking pretty standard; especially when compared to the videos for Ciara’s two last singles. Nonetheless, both the song and video have a laid-back summer vibe to it and definitely fits this time of year.

Following numerous delays and setbacks, Mario’s third studio album ‘Go!’ was finally set to hit stores on July 31st. However, the CD has been pushed back yet again, with the new release date being August 21st. This is being largely attributed to the poor performance of the album’s lead single – ‘How Do I Breathe’. Despite steady radio play, the song and video haven’t caught on and the track currently resides at #91 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart. Another song, ‘Kryptonite’, has been confirmed as the next single and will likely be released ahead of the album. ‘Go!’ is set to feature productions from the likes of Timbaland, Scott Storch and JR Rotem.
According to industry insiders, Chris Brown’s latest single ‘Wall to Wall’ is in danger of being scrapped. The track, which is the lead single from the singer’s upcoming album ‘Exclusive’, has fared badly on the charts – peaking at #79 and currently sitting at #88 on the Billboard Hot 100. Records execs over at Jive are planning to quickly rush out a Stargate produced track – described as sounding like a ‘male Irreplaceable’ – before the album’s August 28th release.
Following the release of her Spanish album earlier this year, Jennifer Lopez is prepping a new English CD – which is slated to drop in September. ‘Wrong When Your Gone’, which was written by Timbaland protegee and The Clutch member Keri Hilson, is set to feature on the currently-untitled disc. Having really liked Keri’s original version of the track, I feel J.Lo has done the song justice judging by this lengthy clip. The production on this slow jam compliments her, somewhat, limited vocal range and she rides the beat nicely. She may be onto something, if the other material on the album is as good as this.{Link Removed As Requested}
Following Ciara’s performance at the 2007 BET Awards this week, speculation has been mounting as to what the singer was trying to convey with her robe. Similar to James Brown, at the end of her set, a robe was thrown to the ‘Promise’ singer – baring ‘#25’ across the back. Explanations ranging from her affiliation with 50 Cent (half of 50?) to her alleged romance with NFL star Reggie Bush (The Saints player #25) have been cited. However, she has revealed to MTV that the number was to poke fun at her placing at #25 on BET’s Top 25 Dancers list – below Diddy, Beyonce, Prince and Missy Elliott:
“I don’t know if you’ve seen the Top 25 Dancers countdown on BET; I acknowledged that,” she admitted, quashing the other rumors.
Amerie’s debuted her newest single ‘Gotta Work’ yesterday. Scott Franklin – who also directed the vid for her last single ‘Take Control’ -directed the video. With a simple concept and great choreography, Amerie really delivered with this one. I’m still not entirely sure about the single choice, but it’s an excellent video nonetheless.
