In The World of Music: [ Polow Da Don takes the blame for leaked Usher tracks ] [ New JoJo LP expected this Fall! ]

POLOW DA DON TAKES THE BLAME FOR RECENT MATERIAL LEAKED FROM USHER’S FORTHCOMING ALBUM » “It’s no secret,” the ‘Hotlanta’ producer told MTV, “I’m the culprit.” ‘Don admits to virtually leaking Usher’s new material from his forthcoming-comeback album saying, “I told [Usher], when I saw him, that I had to put my relationship [with Usher] on the line.” The reasoning behind the recent leakage was becos how virtually successful Usher’s ‘Yeah!’ was when leaked by affiliated producer Lil’ Jon back in 2003. ‘Don said that Usher wasn’t upset at all about the leaking of his material, and to be honest, in my opinion, I thought that was a smart move on both parties part. It wasn’t like ‘Don leaked the whole album, just a song, to see if it would be taken positively, or negatively, with Usher’s fans. Most producers traditionally leak artist’s material, maybe … a week or two, before it’s original release date. I think that’s absolutely genius and I applaud ‘Don for his honesty; he always was one of my favorite producers, he keeps it real!

JOJO AT WORK ON THIRD ALBUM TBR THIS FALL! » Teen-superstar JoJo will be releasing her third studio album this fall according to a recent MySpace blog she wrote to her fans. She writes that she is currently in the process of finishing up her forthcoming album and that she will be releasing a new single before it’s release date this year. No other information has been given about the project but there are rumors that this album will be released via Universal Motown instead of Blackground. I, for one, am excited about this news. I have loved JoJo from the very beginning and really enjoyed her last album The High Road (Blackground / Universal).

» COMMENTING DO'S & DON'TS

  • DO: Speak your mind. All of it! We're not like those other blogs who over-moderate comments and delete people's opinions just because they don't agree with what their readers have to say.
  • DO: Stay on topic. If the post is about the BET Awards, don't come in here talking about what you're cooking for dinner or what happened at work today.
  • DON'T: Bash the contributors of this blog. We created this nice place for you, so the least you can do is show us a little respect. It's not cool to bash the commenters either.
  • DON'T: Just post "First!" as a comment and leave it at that. Yes, it's fun being first, and we understand that. But at least post a comment to go along with that. Comments with just that one word in it will be automatically deleted.
  • DON'T: Link to your site, or to other sites, in your comment. If you want to promote your site, the best way to do that would be to purchase some ad space, or resort to the cheaper alternative - request to be added to the blogroll. If you have something that might be of interest to the contributors, e-mail it to us. Don't post it here.
  • DON'T: Be a nuisance, and don't cause unnecessary drama. We can tell the difference between someone just stating their God-honest opinion and someone who has too much free time on their hands.
  • Comment moderation is enabled (to prevent spammers) so it may take a while for your comment to appear. There's no need to submit it twice. If you include more than 2 links in your comment, your comment will AUTOMATICALLY be held for moderation.
