Nov.30.2007 // Ashlee Simpson says “Get Outta My Head!”

So, Ashlee Simpson premiered her new song, “Outta My Head,” produced by Timbaland on AOL Music recently (click the link below to here it). I really don’t know about this as a first single, I wasn’t feelin’ it, it might grow on me, though. I really wish she would’ve just released “I Get Away with It” becos that song’s wicked to me but only time will tell - I may like “Outta My Head” more once I hear the actual full to the song (which will be available for download exclusively on iTunes December 11).

Nov.30.2007 // Akon Charged in Fan Tossing Incident

Akon Charged in Fan Tossing IncidentAccording to People, police are slapping hip-hop star Akon with criminal charges after a fan said she suffered a concussion in an incident involving him throwing a fan off of the stage at a concert in Fishkill, NY. Akon is due in a Fishkill courtroom Monday to be arraigned on misdemeanor charges of endangering the welfare of a minor and second-degree harassment, the Associated Press reports.

During the summer concert, Akon threw an audience member from the stage into the crowd after a bottle was thrown at him. According to AP, the boy landed on another fan, Abby Rosa, who told the Poughkeepsie Journal that she suffered a concussion. I wonder if, and when, she’s gonna sue Akon since she “suffered a concussion.”

Lil Wayne and Lauren London Engaged?

It’s been reported exclusively by Bossip that Lil Wayne and Lauren London are currently engaged. The snitch told the popular gossip site: “they have been on and off for years and have had an open relationship. Lauren is very hood and likes thugs.” In the past, she’s been linked to T.I., Baron Davis, and Pharrell Williams. This is pretty new for me! I didn’t know Weezy was hittin’ that!! Peep some photos of the couple at the Hornets game last week via the ybf.

Nov.30.2007 // MTV’s Artist of The Week: M.I.A.

At first, I really could not believe it — M.I.A. artist of the week — dubbed by MTV. Weren’t they the ones who tried to get her banned though? Whatever the case, I’m really happy, becos she truly deserves the recognition. I believe she is one of the many underdogs of this industry, so you can’t even imagine how I felt about this. THIS is big for HER! M.I.A. is simply the shit, I cannot stress this enough, Doc.

Nov.30.2007 // Video Premiere: Tamia - “Almost”

This is Canadian singer Tamia’s third single from the album Between Friends (Image/Gallo). I love the song, Tamia, flawless as usual. The video fits the concept to a damn Tee, I would like to know who directed this?

Nov.30.2007 // Throwback: Brandy - “What About Us?”

Time for another throwback, this one is Brandy - “What About Us,” from the singer’s 2002 album Full Moon (Atlantic). The video was directed by Dave Meyers (<3.) and the actual single was produced by Rodney ‘Darkchild’ Jerkins. I decided to post the video since tomorrow is it’s 7-year anniversary and Full Moon was my shit. Brandy just had that complex sound that seemed almost organic and she’s always been one of my top favorite female vocalist. Brandy, please hurry with the album - the music industry needs you!

Nov.29.2007 // T2W Exclusive: Mario F/ Akon - “City”

Mario ft. Akon - “City”

Here R&B crooner Mario can be heard with Konvict’s own Akon in a nice, smooth R&B duet entitled “City.” The song, which features Akon, is an unreleased track from Mario’s latest album Go (J Records). This was an interesting collaboration for me, Akon rocks it, I’ll admit. I can see why this didn’t really make the album but still a great track and solid delivery from Mario nonetheless. Mario I find so flawless collaborating becos he meshes so well and seemingly effortless, it’s magical. There’s talk of a “Crying Out For Me” remix circulating - it’ll be interesting to know if there are any guest appearances involved.

Nov.28.2007 // Yeah, That’s Little “Bobbi Kristina” You’re Looking At!

Yeah, That’s Little “Bobbi Kristina” You’re Looking At!

Bobbi Kristina, daughter of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, was photographed (see above) smoking with a friend. Well, I’ll tell you one thing. Judging by the candid snapshot above, she ain’t so “little” anymore! Guess how old she is! 18? Nah. 17? Lower. 16? Guess again. 15? Almost there. 14? Yes! Bobbi Kristina is only 14 years old and photos of her and a friend smoking weed are making their rounds across the ‘net. Monkey see, monkey do … right? Well apparently this monkey needs a belt to that ass! Nippy, get your child…

EDIT: A lot of people are saying that she’s smoking “Hookah,” and not marijuana like I originally stated. Nevertheless, she’s too young to be doing ANY type of smoking.

Nov.28.2007 // Foxy Brown Released from Solitary Confinement

Foxy Brown Released from Solitary Confinement

Our favorite Rykers inmate, Foxy Brown, was finally released from isolation! After a long and hard (for Foxy of course … we could care less lmao) 40 days in solitary confinement, good ol’ Inga is back in the general population.

The rapper, who is serving a year in jail for violating probation, recently received 76 days in punitive isolation for various offenses at the prison but served only 40 days on account of good behavior, TMZ.com and the New York Post are reporting. Brown, 28, still must serve out the rest of her prison term, which she earned after facing several assault charges in the past two years. Brown reportedly was sent to her own cell after what the Post described as a “bloody shoving match” with another inmate, as well as other violations. [ SOURCE: PEOPLE » ]

Now maybe she’ll play nice like a good little prison inmate! Haha, yeah right…

Nov.27.2007 // Washington Redskins Safety Sean Taylor Dies After Shooting

Washington Redskins Safety Sean Taylor Dies After Shooting

Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor died on Nov. 27, a day after he was shot at home. He was 24. Miami-Dade Police are investigating the attack, which came just eight days after an intruder was reported at Taylor’s home. An All-American at the University of Miami, Taylor was drafted by the Redskins as the fifth overall selection in 2004.

Pro Bowl safety Sean Taylor died Tuesday after he was shot in his home by an apparent intruder, leaving the Washington Redskins in mourning for a teammate who seemed to have reordered his life since becoming a father. The 24-year-old player died at Jackson Memorial Hospital, where he had been airlifted after the shooting early Monday. “It is with deep regret that a young man had to come to his end so soon,” father Pedro Taylor said in a statement on behalf of the family. “Many of his fans loved him because the way he played football. Many of his opponents feared him the way he approached the game. Others misunderstood him, many appreciated him and his family loved him.”

A string of mourners, including Taylor’s father, visited the player’s home and embraced outside. Authorities entered the home, but it was unclear what they were doing. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said the league will honor Taylor’s memory at all games this weekend. “This is a terrible tragedy involving the loss of a young man who leaves behind many people struggling to understand it,” he said in a statement. Redskins coach Joe Gibbs said what he would remember most about Taylor was his excitement about playing football. CONTINUE READING

Nov.27.2007 // Did You Miss It?: Boondocks, “Shinin”

It is satire. Its about the “hating” philosophy that today’s youth believe in. Its about how dumb it is to TRY to ATTRACT hate and WANT people to hate you. Its also about how easy it is to be considered a “hater” (just disagreeing is usually enough), and how there is nothing good about obtaining “hatred” from those around you. -Tre
