Ever wonder what Jay-Z would be doing if he wasn’t rapping or serving as “El Presidente” of Def Jam? Nick Cannon and the rest of the crew of MTV’s sketch comedy show “Nick Cannon Presents: Short Circuitz” think Hovito would assume the role of Doctor Carter and perform breast exams on his nurses and rap through surgeries! It sounds a bit off but makes for some interesting sketch comedy. Watch the clip above! The second season of Short Circuitz hits MTV on June 7th at 10 pm et/pt but you can definitely get in on the action now. If you think you can do better than the clip you just watched, go to ShortCircuitz.tv and upload your own short. Send in your parody of a TV show, a commercial, or a music video. Each week, the top 3 will air on the show and earn the creators $1000 each! Why not try this?
The second single off of Ne-Yo’s new album, “Because of You” is out! The video for “Do You” premiered last night on BET’s Access Granted. I’m very excited that he chose this as the second single - it’s one of my favorites! You can also check out his new video with Fabolous - “Make Me Better” after the cut! CONTINUE READING
Ahh, so this is the song with Pharrell and Twista… We posted some photos of them on the set of the video for it a few days ago. Anyhow, I’m no music reviewer (Lol), but I know what I like and what I don’t like. And I can’t say that I’m really feeling this joint. It’s VERY repetitive … and I hate songs that are overly repetitive. The beat’s fresh though. Maybe the video with that sexy model Lola will change my mind ;-) Or maybe it’ll just grow on me…
My homeboi T.I. is featured on the cover of the latest issue of XXL magazine (July 2007). The 3-page article is titled “I’m Real, What Are You?” and features a picture of T.I. squarin’ off with TIP. It’s a pretty good read, you should check it out! CONTINUE READING
Just a heads up that BET’s Access Granted and Yahoo.com will both premiere Eve’s new video for “Tambourine” tomorrow (05.24) at 8pm EST (5pm PST)! Make sure you check it out! Judging from these photos, it looks like it’s gonna be a hot video!
…17-year old Jordin Sparks from Glendale, Arizona! Congratz! I didn’t really watch this season (this shit gets more boring every year) but I did catch a few episodes and homegirl can sang! Not to mention she’s pretty easy on the eyes ;-) One person that almost stole her thunder though, was Ms. Paula “I be on that KRYPTONITE” Abdul! Did y’all catch how drunk she was tonight?? From beginning to end, you could tell she was a little bit no, a LOTTA BIT tipsy! Someone has got to Youtube her “performance” at the end of the show when Jordin won. I mean, she (Paula) was really crying!
Again, please bear with me this next week. We’ve been a little slack on the updates, but I only have one more week of school, then I’m out for the summer … Thanks so much for understanding and continuing to visit! Here are some of the things we missed out on…
Above is the OFFICIAL cover (Nah Right) to 50 Cent’s third studio LP, Curtis, due out June 26th. So please stop it people with the 50 Cent Stealing Benzino’s Album Cover mambo jumbo. But anyway, I like it - it’s hot! AND DON’T EVEN SAY WHAT I THINK YA’LL ARE GONNA SAY!! Lol, leave Fiddy alone. In other news 50 Cent recently spoke with MTV News about “beef” with Cam’Ron, here’s what he had to say…
For a person to think that calling you the name your mom gave you at birth is disrespectful is beyond belief. He’s punished himself more than I can punish him. He’s made a fool of himself. There’s nobody asking me about Cam’ron. … I think people lost interest in it, based on the situation. He’s not even relevant. You’re talking about a guy who sold 270,000 [copies] his last record. I sold 9.8 million my last record. I’m not going to exhaust my audience by talking about somebody they have no interest in.
Aye, thanks to Koriee for the heads up on this chick. Tynisha Keli is the frickin’ truth, just by hearing “Let It Go” I knew automatically I was diggin’ her. She is currently working on her debut album, Even If It Takes Forever, due out sometime later this year. It was confirmed that Tynisha’s official first single will be “I Wish You Loved Me” (Myspace). The single will debut on radio stations in the U.S. on May 24, 2007 (tomorrow!). Tynisha will also be shooting a music video for this song! Below are some old songs from Tynisha that blew her up on the Myspace game, similar to Cassie’s story. Fun Fact: difference is one of these young ladies can actually sing (I’ll let you figure out the one I’m referring to.) She recently took all of these vocally amazing songs OFF her myspace ugh! Lol… I heard because that was the past and now her label is now starting to push her a little more now because again of her myspace success, but let’s hope she gets marketed properly- Warner Brothers is whack- their last artist was Paris Hilton. No comment. Switch labels girl! Your voice is too extraordinary to waste like that.

….Yup! New Black Eyed Peas track entitled, “More”! The song is from the new Pepsi Campaign project, I love the song it’s a nice melodic track with a little street edge, but I don’t think it’s necessarily “single worthy” in my opinion- but I hear this is strictly for the Pepsi Campaign and will probably not be included in the rumored titled album, From Roots To Fruits, so I sigh a pleasant relief. In the meantime you all can check out Pepsi More for more information and to watch trailers, download wallpaper and a whole lot of other stuff…
I know we are a little late with this post, I can’t believe I forgot, but recently this month Janet Jackson turned 41 and I would like to acknowledge the fact so, HAPPY BIRTHDAY ON BEHALF OF THINK2WICE JANET! And many more to come, I know she had a good birthday with her man as well as family and friends celebrating with her, she looks absolutely gorgeous for 41 don’t cha think? Kudos to Janet for keeping up that lovely figure of hers and a solid 20 year career going strong not to mention! In other news, I’m pretty sure you guys probably already heard the news about Janet Jackson Switching to Def Jam and it appears she will be releasing some new material pretty soon so be on the lookout for that, we will keep you posted also.
Here’s another one of those pointless “hip-hop beefs” this time featuring jailbird Beanie Sigel, and he’s attacking Kanye West & Pharrell Williams and their preppy styles. Sad thing is … both of these cats (Kanye & Pharrell I mean) are more successful than he’ll ever be. Do I smell “hate” in the air? *sniffs deeply* Anyhow, I wouldn’t harp on this too much. All dude could think of is “dats not coo … in da hood? dats not coo to be.” Ya just took a step back in my book Beans! For more, log on to www.QD3.com.
Just Like You is the highly anticipated sophomore album to be released by R&B singer Keyshia Cole. Reports were speculating that the album would drop on September 18th. Now I’m not sure if this is an official first single, but it features Lil’ Kim and Missy Elliott, from the album or if it will even make the album but I just decided to post it any way because I listened, and I’m really feelin’ it, and not to mention– I see my girl Lil’ Kim is back! Wow, listening to her again takes me back to the “Hardcore” days and such. I also wanted to test out my “Mirror” links, which will make it a whooole lot easier uploading to the masses. Anyway the track is very “grown and sexy,” a Missy Misdemeanor Elliott production no doubt, I think this is a little taste to what we can expect from the singer’s album.

British pop star Amy Winehouse recently escaped to Miami to quickly tie the knot with fiance Blake Fielder-Civil. The singer slipped out of the Shore Club hotel in South Beach early Friday and got married at the Marriage License Bureau on Flagler Street in downtown Miami. The 30-minute ceremony, which cost the couple only $120 USD, was officiated by Deputy Clerk Samuel Calixte. No family members were present. Winehouse and Fielder-Civil, wearing shorts and soaked by a tropical downpour, later arrived at the Big Pink diner on Collins Avenue for lunch with four friends. A post-wedding party poolside at their hotel had to be cut short when the sky opened up again. It is the first marriage for Winehouse, 23, and Fielder-Civil, 24, who have been engaged since April. But here’s the thing … there was no prenumptial agreement! This stunt has surprised her friends and family, and her new husband is apparantly bragging about it. British tabloids are reporting that the new husband of Amy Winehouse has been vocal about the lack of a legal agreement that would stop him from getting part of the Winehouse fortune if the marriage should fall through.
Not a good look, Amy! Next thing you know, you’ll be having two kids 1 year apart… Then you’re gonna divorce your husband and he’s gonna get half of everything you own leaving you to go crazy. Then you’re gonna shave your head bald, go back into rehab, attack a paparazzo’s car (GI-Jane style), and come back on to the scene going back and forth to small clubs lipsynching to your hits. Sound familiar?? Anyhow, you can check out a few candids of the odd couple from May 16 leaving a Walgreens in Miami. How romantic…
Jessica Simpson has shocked fans by confirming her romance with rocker John Mayer is over. After Simpson attended the Cannes Film Festival solo earlier this week, rumours were rife that the couple’s nine-month romance had cooled. And now US news show Extra is reporting the split is official. Simpson, 26, and Mayer, 29, spent months refusing to talk about romance rumours but confirmed they were an item during a romantic March break in Rome, Italy, where they kissed and held hands. The couple was last seen together at the Costume Institute Gala in New York on 7 May. The split news comes just days after Simpson’s manager father Joe announced he approved of his daughter’s new beau, stating: “I love him; he’s got great music… and he’s a legend already.”
Can’t say that I’m too surprised. I called it months ago … the rebound relationship never works out!
