According to Hits Daily Double, the video for Kelly Rowland’s long-awaited (and much needed) new single ‘Ghetto’ (ft. Snoop Dogg) will debut on September 10th on BET’s 106 & Park. Be sure to check it out. {Source}Keyshia Cole performed her smash hit ‘Let It Go’ on Yahoo’s Pepsi Smash recently. She has really stepped it up with the live performances as of late and I thought she did pretty good here – although the choreography was kinda ‘amerteurish’. Still, it’s her voice that she’s loved for, so it’s all good.
In other Keyshia news, ‘Let It Go’ is currently the #1 most played track on US radio. The video for the track also occupies the top spot on BET’s 106 & Park.
What do you think of the performance?
Following the controversy surrounding his comments on black women, producer Polow Da Don has has spoken out – again justifying his comments:
AllHipHop.com: So do you stand by your statements?
Polow Da Don: Oh definitely. It has nothing to do with me, these effects. I didn’t make this stuff up. Only thing where people got misled is that I said I prefer a White woman, and that’s not the case at all. Really, I date all types of women. It was a stage in my life when I started dating a lot of White women- that was just a stage in my life. Right now, I date girls I like. I don’t base it off of any shade or color when I meet a girl now. They linked my comments about the Black family and Black women with the “King of the White Girls” and [the fact that] I dated White girls. That’s where it all went wrong. So when I was comparing Black women to White women, that has zero to do with me dating White women. What I was saying was factual though. Ladies and gentlemen agreed, n****s and b******s got mad.

Talk about pouring fuel on fire…
Don’t usually do this, but I thought to take a minute to wish Michael Jackson a Happy Birthday. The undisputed King of Pop turned 49 today. I’m just hoping he hurries up and drops that new album of his to remind the imitators, and the world at large, of who really sits at the top.
Some five months after the release of ‘Like This’, Kelly Rowland is finally gearing up to premier the video for the her 2nd single ‘Ghetto’ (ft. Snoop Dogg). Speaking with MTV from the set of her ESPN promo clip – alongside 50 Cent -the singer said the following about the video:
I’m working with Andrew Gura on this video. It’s very, I’d say … gosh, I’m trying to get the right word out because I don’t want to sound crazy. … It’s ghetto. It’s really fly. I feel like everybody has some sort of element of ghetto in them. Think about it. Right? Wouldn’t you say so? And everyone knows what the ghetto is.
It’s all well talking about it, but her people need to get the video out ASAP! Things seem to be looking up for her though; as well as the ESPN spot, Kelly is set to tour at the end of the year through into early next year. Sources continue to confirm that Kelly is indeed recording new tracks… for a new album, perhaps?
Any thoughts?
R&B singer Keyshia Cole performed her smash hit ‘Let It Go’ during her show at New York’s Nokia Theatre this past Sunday (August 19th). Billed as the surprise of the night, both Missy Elliott and Lil’ Kim joined her onstage to perform their song. I’m really loving the performance; Keyshia sounded great and the crowd were hyped throughout – especially when Missy and Kim came out. Great stuff.

The ‘Making The Band 4’ finale is set to air this Sunday (August 26th) at 10.00pm. I’ve managed to catch the majority of this season since being out here in US (the show hasn’t started back home yet) and think it’s been great. Of the 10 finalists left, my picks for the band are:From left to right: Brian A, Willie, Qwanell and Mike
I’m really hoping Diddy doesn’t screw over whoever is picked to be in this group as he has done with so many before them; the majority of the guys this year can really ‘sing sing’ and are some of the best vocalists on any season the popular MTV show. Click here to check out the Bryan Michael Cox produced track that will serve as the group’s first single – ‘I Want You Exclusive’.
Remember you can vote for your favourite(s) – which could influence who makes the group (not sure how legit this is though lol). Click here to vote
Who do you think will make the group?
Amy Winehouse is seriously a train-wreck waiting to happen. The ‘Rehab’ singer and her junkie husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, got into a drug-fueled fight at a London hotel in the early hours of this morning – leaving them both bloodied and bruised. Click here to read the full story.
Sweet Jesus, I’m done! Word has it Mya’s ‘Liberation’ album has been delayed yet again. The CD was re-scheduled to drop on September 18th, but it’s release is now listed as ‘TBD’ (to be decided). I’m doubting if it’ll ever see the light of day – which may actually be a blessing; as sources claim it sounded a mess. Mya really isn’t in a good position and hasn’t been for a while. Maybe shelving this album and starting afresh wouldn’t be a bad idea?
ON BEING FOLLOWED BY CAMERAS
Sometimes I feel like ‘This is cool, man; I have TV cameras following me everywhere I go,’ he says sipping a margarita from a plastic cup. “Other times I want to crawl under a rock.” His mouth turns down stubbornly. “I feel like an idiot – ‘Did I really agree to this?’ It feels self-absorbed and self-indulgent.”“It’s going to be great, baby,” says Kelis in the calming tones of someone used to this conversation. “It has to be great, because if it’s not great we won’t let them put it on TV.”
NAS ON HOW KELIS STEPPED HIS FASHION GAME UP
“Before I met Kelis, I wore Gucci or whatever was hot,” says Nas, with admiration in his eyes. “I didn’t dress badly, because there’s no excuse to disrespect the gods of the stage with some bummy shit: I always say you better rob, cheat, or steal threads to look good up there because hip-hop is about being fresh from your head to toes. But this is a whole different level. Kelis has really made me get my spirit up and step up my clothes game.”

I’ll be sure to check out their show whenever it airs – I’m sure these two will make great viewing.
