Lil Kim Gets SUED!

October 09, 2008 , 10:45 AM ET
A record company has sued Lil' Kim for $2.5 million, saying the Grammy-winning rapper hasn't delivered all the recordings their contract requires.
Brookland Media filed the lawsuit Tuesday in Manhattan's state Supreme Court. Lil' Kim's lawyer, Londell McMillan, says Brookland sued "to leverage their own position" in the contract dispute.
The lawsuit says Brookland contracted with Lil' Kim this year and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on recordings, equipment and advance payments.
Court papers say the rapper later tried to change the contract and refused to continue recording unless Brookland agreed. The papers say she had recorded only a few tracks toward a new album by the beginning of September.
Brookland wants the court to declare the contract valid and bar Lil' Kim from recording for another company.

Welcome to the FUNPLEX
Welcome to Funplex, the first record of the 21st century from the B-52s. "It's loud, sexy rock and roll, with the beat pumped up to hot pink," says guitarist Keith Strickland. Eleven fresh new songs, crafted by the groundbreaking band that put Athens, GA on the musical map in the late '70s, and conquered the world with its savvy hooks, unconventional approach to music-making and original style. “Funplex sounds like us, updated," adds Fred Schneider. "It's the B-52s now – or fifteen years from now."
From the opening burst of "Pump," with Keith’s garage-rock guitar and Kate, Fred and Cindy's one-of-a-kind vocal interplay, Funplex is instantly recognizable as prime, yet contemporary, B-52s. Vibrant selections including "Keep This Party Going," "Ultraviolet," and "Hot Corner" reaffirm the quartet's status as "the world's greatest party band." Yet they continue taking risks, too, yielding future favorites such as the transcendental "Juliet of the Spirits" and "Love in the Year 3000," where atmospheric introductions unfold into multi-layered harmonies and burbling beats. On the propulsive title track and first single, the three vocalists adopt distinct characters, running amok on diet pills and slinging tacos in a sprawling shopping center. "It's the seedy underbelly of the mall," chortles Fred.
The creative odyssey of Funplex began with Keith Strickland, who composes the music for the group. "I had been listening to a lot of electronic dance music and early rock and roll. I was inspired to use these two aesthetics together with our own sound to write some shameless dance-floor party music." At home in Key West, FL, he commenced crafting new tracks that retained iconic features of the band's sound – such as their primal guitar hooks – while also emphasizing grooves. What emerged were originals like "Eyes Wide Open," with its throbbing low-end and oddball percussion, and the chugging, unvarnished "Too Much to Think About." Songs that can stand (or shimmy) shoulder-to-shoulder with the best work by newer contemporaries like LCD Soundsystem, The Rapture and the Killers.
"I'm trying to convey a feeling when I write," Keith explains. "I like to think of my instrumentals as landscapes. The chord changes, rhythms and sound quality of the instruments are all aspects of a sonic space, which is designed for Cindy, Fred and Kate to step into. I want them to feel inspired by the music and expand on that feeling with their melodies and lyrics ... little did I know that with our new songs ... they were going to get all sexy."
The other members of the band were busy incubating new songs, too. "I'm always writing lyrics," says Fred, “I have notebooks full of ideas, not just for songs, but cartoons, films, everything." The band began meeting regularly at Nickel & Dime Studios in Atlanta, GA for Stage Two of the writing process. Working with Keith’s foundations, Kate, Fred and Cindy commenced with their trademark "jamming," creating melody lines, lyrics, and vocal harmonies, turning over myriad ideas until they hit upon the ones that served each song best.
"During the 'jamming' process Cindy and I usually focus a lot on melodies ...then the harmonies start to flow....and the magic begins," Kate elaborates. "Sometimes we start with title or subject ideas but we often go to our laptops and jam out on lyrics while listening to the music."
"Most people could not do this," confesses Cindy of their democratic modus operandi. "What we're trying to do is rare, but it works out. And you get a song that is multi-faceted, and has different senses of humor, and depth to it." For instance, the initial spark for "Juliet of the Spirits" came from Keith, according to Kate: "He made a suggestion to look to the Fellini movie" – 1965's Giulietta degli spiriti – "for lyrical inspiration, since his movies have always been an influence on our look and our hair! Cindy, Fred and I took it from there." The title "Deviant Ingredient" may have sprung from a line of Cindy's poetry, yet the song's vocal twists, and vivid images of trawling the martini mile, are born from all the members' intersecting imaginations.
To help formalize the sound of Funplex, the band recruited producer Steve Osborne (Happy Mondays, Doves, KT Tunstall), who had favorably impressed Keith with his work on New Order's 2001 return to form, Get Ready. "Steve was strong, directed everybody well, had great ideas… and he understood us, too," says Cindy. "A lot of people wouldn't know what to do with our band, but he appreciated the quirkiness, and made it work. Can you imagine what a hard job that must have been?"
While Osborne and his team – programmers Pete Davis, Dave McCracken, and Damien Taylor, and engineer Dan Austin – helped refine subtle percussion and keyboard parts, enhancing the original tracks, they also made sure to retain a hefty dose of spontaneity. "We didn't do a whole lot to the vocals," reveals Kate. "The philosophy was to keep them a little raw. A lot of attention was paid to the individual tracks, but we were careful not to sound too slick or overproduced."
Recording took place in two locations, first at the Clubhouse in Rhinebeck, NY, followed by John Keane Studio in Athens, GA. Working at the latter venue, in particular, enhanced the good vibes that surrounding the making of the record. "It felt like coming full circle," says Kate. The studio was literally just a few blocks from the site of the house where the band played its first show, at a party on Valentine's Day, 1977. "We were tapping back into that wellspring of creativity," she continues. "It was like the spirit of when we started. My voice teacher used to say tension is the enemy of all art, and being in Athens melted away any tension. It's so easygoing there."
You'll find glimpses of the band's Athens, GA roots in the lyrics of "Hot Corner," too. "That was a real corner by our old studio, in the Morton Building, where a lot of hot action took place," Kate recalls. "Like 'Love Shack,' the song is a mix of all things Athens: the bus station where Keith and Ricky worked, the dance parties we crashed, the crazy outfits we wore."
The B-52s have come a long way since their revolutionary 1979 self-titled debut, featuring the evergreen "Rock Lobster." Following the loss of founding member Ricky Wilson in 1985, the group rebounded with their triumphant 1989 smash Cosmic Thing, which spawned the Top 10 hits "Love Shack" and "Roam." Although their last recordings to be made commercially available were the songs "Debbie" and "Hallucinating Pluto" for the 1998 anthology Time Capsule: Songs for a Future Generation, the band has remained a popular and active live touring act.
Looking back at band’s pioneering fusions of punk, new wave, and vintage rock, it would be tough to imagine the contemporary musical landscape existing without having encountered the intersected spirits of Kate Pierson, Fred Schneider, Keith Strickland, and Cindy Wilson. "We all cross-pollinate, and create a wonderfully crazy blossom," explains Fred. Botanists don't need a name for this stunning specimen, though. It already has one, known around the world: the B-52s.

Backwoods Barbie

How could u not love Dolly? Especially when after 17 years she decides her new new CD should be called “BACKWOODS BARBIE”. Brilliant. I just watched the BIOGRAPHY 2 hour special and was happy to hear that she’s as savvy a business woman as she is a beautiful woman. She says that she modeled her look after the town tramp, yet she’s never been trashy. Starring In 9to5, Steel Magnolias, Best Little Whorehouse In Texas, Straight Talk and more she always entertains, and although i am not the biggest country fan, i will admit she turned it out on “I’M GONE” (u really should clik the link...it’s a kekekekekeke...)
and if ur down to ride a roller coaster or grab some vittles u can always hit
DOLLYWOOD
PS...for allu youngin’s she originally wrote and had a hit twice with
I Will Always Love You
then a third time for the BODYGAURD soundtrack with WHITNEY HOUSTON
which became one of the biggest selling singles of all time.
Dolly turned Elvis down when he wanted to record a version of the song because they wanted part of her publishing rights, she said no-go...painfull for her at the time, but thannx to Whitney, a decision that eventually made her Millions and Millions of dollars.
DUMB BLOND she’s not

Mary J Blige Is On Our Side

Mary J. Blige
Mary J. Blige has something to tell you about fighting AIDS, creating a hot new album and doing the hard work of living with joy.
MARY J CD RELEASE PARTY EXCLUSIVE AT COLISEUM FRIDAY DEC 28
Excerpted from The Advocate
Mary J. Blige has a fantastic body, fit and surprisingly curvy. Today it’s poured into a pair of formfitting jeans, a chic orange turtleneck, and dark leather boots. Huge, dark sunglasses set off her trademark blond bob wig. She’s curled up in a chair in a small room at the Beverly Hills Hotel after our lunch downstairs, her legs dangling over the arm. She stares out the window as her husband-manager Kendu Isaacs puts a CD-R of songs from her new album, Growing Pains, in the room’s outdated CD player. As the beat-driven music starts to play, Mary drops her head slightly forward and nods hard to the beat. Her entire upper torso jooks in classic B-girl style. She sings along to the words, going into her own zone. This is career-high music for Mary -- some of her best singing, strongest songwriting, and most inspired production ever. But it’s likely to further alienate many of the fans that vibe to Miserable Mary, Addicted Mary, Depressed and Suicidal Mary. The new material is a continuation of the process begun on her Grammy award–winning 2005 album, The Breakthrough -- Mary’s chronicling of her new and hard-won states of mind and being. She’s happy. When told that the album, which was then a month and a half from being released, would likely inspire grumblings of dissatisfaction among some of her old fans, Mary swings her legs around, sits up straight, and says in that globally famous no-bullshit voice, “Thank you. That’s honest, what you just gave back. I like that.”
Actually, throughout our conversation, honesty is what Mary J. Blige gives me. It’s well-known that celebrities come to this magazine to send a little love to their big gay following, but often enough, that’s just business. This is different. This is deeper. “The majority of my fans are gay,” Mary says matter-of-factly. “The majority of them are, and I have to really make sure that they know I’m paying attention to the fact that they support me, and I support them.”
Asked at what point she realized that the children had made her their own, she immediately replies, “I realized that years ago. Like, probably during...was it Share My World or Mary? It was probably during the Mary album that I realized I had so many gay fans, because one of my managers at the time was gay and him and all his friends were die-hard Mary fans. And then there’s a lot of gay women that love Mary J. Blige -- a slew of gay women. And that’s never been something to bother me. Never. Because we’re all people at the end of the day.” She pauses for a second, then continues.
“When I was growing up,” she says thoughtfully, “my neighborhood was full of everyone -- black, white, Latino, gay, straight. A lot of people that I knew were gay, but they were great people. They were good people. It’s not like they were alien. They were just people. That [acceptance] was just something that was always in me. I’ve never been a judgmental person because I have been through so much hell myself…”
And you yourself have been judged, I say to her.
“Exactly. I’ve been judged so much that I’d be a fool, or I’d be dead wrong to myself, to have something negative to say about anyone that’s doing anything that’s their choice, you know what I mean?”
In the fight against AIDS, Blige has done more than support from the sidelines. She has jumped in on our side. Longtime fans know of her involvement with AIDS organizations and awareness programs like Minority AIDS Project and her being a spokeswoman for MAC cosmetics’ Viva Glam III and IV campaigns. The death of her friend and songwriter Kenny Greene (who was responsible for many of MJB’s early hits, most notably “Love No Limit” and “My Love&rdquo
“I was motivated,” she says, “by the fact that it came and was so huge, and then all of a sudden it disappeared, and it was the thing that everybody swept under the rug. It was the elephant in the room that nobody’s looking at. It made me be like, Oh, this is right at our front door. This can touch us. So why wouldn’t I want to get involved with something that can help save all our lives, save everybody’s lives? That’s why I wanted to get involved, because I knew that…” She pauses. “I had friends that… One of my gay friends that was a songwriter with me, Kenny Greene, was one of my really good friends and he died from AIDS. I was like…” She sighs deeply and falls silent before resuming the conversation. “And then everybody was just dropping off, dropping off, dropping off, but no one was saying anything.”
Of course, part of that silence is rooted in homophobia, either inflicted or absorbed. Or both. And while much mainstream conventional wisdom (catch the layered oxymoron there) has it that the African-American and hip-hop communities are more homophobic than whites, Mary doesn’t see it that way.
“The real hip-hop,” she stresses, “the real people don’t even care about that. They’ll love you and accept you no matter what because they know who they are. There are a lot of people trying to figure out who they are and what they’re gonna be. There’s a lot of confusion in that. Confusion causes a lack of identity.
“I’ve heard a couple of guys say foul things, and those guys are not around me anymore because when they say things like that, I’m looking at them like, What makes you so scared? You don’t know who you are? I guess it all boils down to them not being sure about themselves and what they wanna do, whoever that is. I won’t say any names. And I don’t dislike them or anything -- it just makes me wonder about them period. ’Cause if you’re not sure about that, then you ain’t sure about a lotta things!” she laughs.

50 Cent and Lil Kim have apparently made nice and
recorded “Magic Stick 2: Wanna Lick,” the first
single off the new G-Unit album "Shoot to Kill,"
which is slated to be released at the end of the
year.
Miss Info Reports: "...Anyways, it looks like Lil
Kim’s tatted and plaited plaything, Young Buck is
the one who brought his boss and his boo together
for a peaceful collaboration."

Cent on Kim:
"I'm not good at resolving things," 50 said on
Sunday afternoon on the set of the video for his
collaboration with Akon, "I'll Still Kill."
(Note: The title will be changed to "I Still
Will" for television purposes.) "Once I get into
an altercation with someone or we have a
misunderstanding, I'd rather leave them over
there rather than have them around when they
still have those feelings."
"I reached out to her, called her, to see where
her head was at," Fif said. "In Kim's case, it
wasn't me and Kim [who had the real beef]. It was
Kim and the man she was with at the time. Later,
we was able to actually get together and
collaborated. We was able to make something
special again with 'Wanna Lick.' It's good. From
a female perspective, she can provide an
aggressive standpoint and be aggressive for the
women while I can be myself and be aggressive
from a man's perspective."

EVE-ILLS

The First (and Last Remaining) Lady of Hip-Hop? With her new record set to release some time next year (fingers crossed), Eve sounds off on being one of the only female rappers left in the game and why she just can't call Fergie or Gwen Stefani hip-hop
PERSONALLY, it seems like she’s just Bitching about the Commercial success of These other artists and her own CD being delayed cause it wasn’t as good. Stop hating EVE...though they may not be “Hip-Hop” u are on the WAY COMMERCIAL END of the hip hop genre, including all your biggest hits (which where all duets with artist such as GWEN and ALICIA....
By Margeaux Watson
From 1999 to 2002, Eve was on a roll. One of hip-hop's most bankable female MCs, her first three albums sold 4 million copies and spawned five Top 40 hits, including well-received collaborations with Gwen Stefani (''Let Me Blow Ya Mind'') and Alicia Keys (''Gangsta Lovin'''). But after a four-year detour into TV, film, and fashion, the Grammy winner has run into some snags while trying to revive her music career. Her forthcoming CD, Here I Am, was initially due in August but has now been delayed until 2008. Meanwhile, her first two singles off the record have struggled to connect with listeners: ''Tambourine'' peaked at No. 10 on Billboard's Hot Rap Tracks chart on July 14, while its follow-up, ''Give It to You,'' hadn't charted at press time. But despite those setbacks, Eve, 28, tells EW she's still got more skills than a lot of male MC's tallying up record sales in the ''testosterone-driven'' rap game, and that she's going to wait until she's 100 percent confident in her new CD before she lets it drop.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: What's going on here? Why so many delays with this album? Are you scrapping the whole thing and starting over? EVE: No, I'm not completely starting over. I'm definitely gonna keep some of the records that I had because I love a lot of the stuff that I did. So I'm keeping a lot of it. I'm just going back in to kinda make it a well-rounded album. I think what kind of delayed us this time was that I went in and did two records that sound a lot like the Pharrell record — the singing record.... I don't think the movement was right and I'd rather put out an album and feel 100 percent connected to it than just to put out an album, especially the way music is right now.
What do you mean by saying you put out two records that sound like Pharrell? Are you going in a different direction with the new music you're recording for the album?Not really a different direction, but more of that direction. I don't even know what you would generalize it or call it.
More pop?I guess you can call it that, but I don't know because it's hard to kinda say that too, because some of the records that I'm keeping, like the rap records, are on that level, so it's kinda hard to say in any way.... I felt like it just wasn't a cohesive record. I felt like I needed to go back in and just make everything match.
Are you happy with the way that ''Tambourine'' and the Sean Paul single [Give It To You] performed?Oh, I loved it. I think [they] did great. I think, honestly, although the Sean Paul record didn't get as big as we would like it to, the initial response to it was great. So I think that helps. ''Tambourine'' absolutely got the sickest response, so I'm happy with that.
Has it been difficult for you to remount your musical career after being sucked into a TV show and a clothing line for three years?No, it actually hasn't been that bad. I mean, the response that I've been getting mostly from people is, ''We're happy you're back in music. I'm happy you're back in music.'' But I can't front and not say that there is a new movement of music the way a lot of the music is right now. But no, I think I've been received pretty well. And especially at radio stations and stuff like that, I'm really happy for just the love that I've been getting, the support that I've been getting from radio stations and TV stations that are like, ''Yo, we wanna help you out with this record.'' So that's a good thing.
Speaking of a new musical movement, how do you feel about re-entering a musical landscape that's getting overloaded with female vocalists in an era with virtually no successful female rappers?In some ways, it's hard. But in other ways, it almost is like I kinda feel like it was when I first came out. Even though there were two females that were in the forefront, but at the same time, there was nobody I felt, in my opinion, like me that came out, so I feel like I'm starting all over. I feel like a new artist again.
What particular challenges have you faced in getting this album off the ground? It's a lot. It's different. There was a time when you could put out a single and then put your record out five weeks after and you knew if the single did well at radio that told you how your album was gonna do. Nowadays, a single could play for weeks and weeks and weeks on the radio, it could be the biggest single, and the album sales don't match up. So, you know, it's a different format, and I don't even think that anybody has the formula to it now. So it's totally different. You definitely have to go about it a different way. You definitely have to take your time and think and come up with a good strategy, and that aspect is really different.
Has the success of artists like Fergie and Gwen Stefani made it harder for female rappers because they've come in and created a new, pop-friendly mix of pop, hip-hop, and R&B sounds?I think what makes that hard for us is that they're not hip-hop, period. I'll never, ever be able to give Fergie or Gwen that title. I love them. I think they're dope. I think they make good music. But they're not hip-hop. They emulate hip-hop in certain things that they do, but they're not hip-hop. And I think that hurts hip-hop in a way because it's confusing the lines. I also must admit that hip-hop is the new pop. Like hip-hop five years ago, Soulja Boy couldn't get played on the same station that Fergie was playing on or that the Black Eyed Peas were playing on or that Justin was playing on. Or Justin couldn't be on an urban station five years ago. But now, all the lines have blurred. But at the same time, calling Fergie and Gwen hip-hop hurts females, I think. It hurts the female MCs.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Is hip-hop still your first love? Your life has come so far from the experiences you talked about on your earlier albums.EVE: Well, I had to talk about what I knew about at that time. When I came out, that's what I lived every single day. I lived a certain kind of life. Hip-hop will always be me. Without hip-hop, I wouldn't be who I am. It made me. My stake is strong in hip-hop. I'm still an MC, but I have to talk about and be who I am as I grow as a person. I'd be frontin' if I was like, ''Yeah, I was doing this on the block.'' I live in Hollywood, you know what I'm saying? I got an apartment in New York. Like, I don't live that kind of life so I can only talk about what I know about.
You already talked about this a little bit when you were talking about Gwen and Fergie, but I want to go back to it: How tough is it to be a female rapper in today's musical climate? Is it tougher than when you released your first album? When/what was the turning point?I don't think it's hard. I don't look at it as hard 'cause I think I'm better than half these dudes that's out. Some of these dudes can't rap. And I hate to say it like that. [Laughs]
That's true, but those dudes' albums are getting off the ground and achieving success.I know. That's definitely because it's testosterone-driven. It's testosterone-driven. But I don't think it's hard. I don't look at it in that aspect of it. What was the second part of the question?
When/what was the turning point for female rappers when their popularity started waning?I don't know. Honestly, I can't really say there was a specific time. I think it just happened and I don't think that anybody paid attention to it until, like, right now where you look up and it's like, ''Oh, s---! Where are all the females at?'' I think it just kinda happened.
Is your album still being released on Dr. Dre's Aftermath label?I can't say. Geffen will [definitely] be attached to it.
Does that have anything to do with the delays?No. I can honestly say, I know a lot of people have a lot to say about Dre and waiting on Dre, but I can honestly say this has nothing to do with Dre.
When and why did you change management? Did that cause more delays with the album?Yes, I have new management now, which that had a little bit to do with it, but I also won't blame it on my management either.
Why did you change management and how did that affect the delay?It was just time. It was a hard decision. We've been together almost 10 years. But it was one of things I felt like I needed to do for myself. I felt like I needed a change. I was on a new path in my brain. It was just something that I needed to do. And I'm sure it affected certain things and the pushing back of certain things. But like I said, I don't want to blame it all on that either.
So what's the latest release date for the album?Some time next year. I know [Laughs]. It's like I've been trying to push this baby out for a year, okay! Trust me, it is really crazy. It's the longest labor on earth! But honestly, I feel okay about it. It'll be some time next year.
But you don't know when next year? Not even the month?No. I don't wanna even give out any more dates. I'm kinda scared. [Laughs] I'm scared of giving out dates. I'm gonna just wait.

Britney Spears' 'Blackout' Hits Internet
Britney Spears' new album, the unfortunately titled "Blackout," is all over the Internet.
The surprise uploading of new tracks by the embattled pop tartlet/wayward mom has caused Jive Records to move up the release date from Nov. 13 to Oct. 30.
Even that may not help. Jive has scheduled listening sessions for press for this coming Monday.
But most media types, even those not proficient in computers, can hear it now.
Luckily, this column already told you about several of the tracks Britney recorded for the album a couple of weeks ago.
Songs like “Piece of Me,” in which she sings about her experiences with the paparazzi, and “Heaven on Earth,” which sounded like a monster hit to these ears, are among the "Blackout" offerings. On the Internet version, however, those songs are missing.
Of course it’s possible that someone thought the early leak would be good publicity for Spears. She’s otherwise prevented from doing very much press to support "Blackout" considering her present legal woes (she was chided by a family court judge for having drug problems and her children were taken away from her.)
Still, legal difficulties don’t always affect music stars. R. Kelly, for example, has been saddled with ongoing charges of child pornography. He also just lost a plagiarism lawsuit in Belgium for the Michael Jackson song “You Are Not Alone.” But the public doesn’t seem to care, and his albums continue to sell very well.
Even with illegal downloads, "Blackout" may have a big first week now that Jive has moved it away from Nov. 13. That’s the same day that corporate cousins Alicia Keys and Celine Dion also have new albums coming out. Keys’ CD, especially, should be a blockbuster. So getting Britney out early is a smart idea.
“Blackout” — at least the online version — contains 16 tracks of Euro-synthpop dance music. Recorded over a two-year period, and assembled through Spears’ mishaps by careful producers, the album sounds like a hit.
It kicks off with the single “Gimme More” and continues into “Break the Ice” and “Cold as Fire.” The latter, as we reported several weeks ago, has Spears gleefully tossing the F-word around. There’s also another unfortunate title: “Get Me High.” Between that and the album’s title, the family court judge — if he’s not a club dancer — may not be so impressed.
But it’s the ballads that are kind of mesmerizing. They’re the last two tracks on the Web version — called “Love Is a State of Grace” and “Let Go.” If it’s really Spears, unadorned, she’s going to change a lot of minds about her ability to put over a real song. She might even have a recording career in her future. Now, that would be a shock.
One thing’s for sure: If these songs are actually on the album, everyone in the music business is going to want to do business with Spears’ A&R woman Theresa Whites. She’s a miracle worker.
Lil Wayne, Lil Mama, Kfed, JLO, Kanye, Beyonce....
Jlo has a lot more on her hands than just a new album and joint tour with husband Marc Anthony: The couple are expecting twins, TMZ.com reports. The children would be the first for the pair; Anthony has a daughter and two sons from two previous relationships, one of which resulted in marriage. Lopez and Anthony launched their En Concierto trek in late September and will continue on it through a November 2 date in Miami. Her new album, Brave, drops Tuesday. ...
Spice Girls have cooked up their first single in seven years, called "Headlines," according to BBC News. "It's a Spice Girl classic," Geri Halliwell told the news outlet. We are so proud of it. We started putting words down before we even had the finalised 'yes' from everyone." The Girls' reunion world tour launches December 2 in Vancouver, British Columbia, and will be preceded by their Greatest Hits set, due in stores November 20. ...
Lil Wayne
was arrested in Boise, Idaho, Friday night on a felony fugitive charge issued in Georgia for allegedly possessing a controlled substance, The Associated Press reports. Wayne, who was booked into the Ada County Jail, was expected to miss a scheduled concert Saturday night because his charges made him ineligible for bond. As a result, an Ada County sheriff's deputy told AP, the jail has been flooded with angry calls from fans. The 25-year-old rapper, born Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., is set to be formally charged Tuesday...
Lil Mama
This about to get ugly, this about to go crazy." First T.I. had his way with Britney Spears, and now it's Lil Mama. The diminutive rapper is about to drop a remix of Spears' single "Gimme More," in which she gives the singer some props but spends most of the song boasting about her own skills: "I'm what's hot. Ever see 'G-Slide'? I can bring it back." (Listen here for a preview of the track.) Lil Mama then calls out the "followers," saying she has no competition because she's "so far ahead of my time." And, in what could be an analysis of why Spears has had so many troubles as of late, Lil Mama says, "People always going to tell you what you want to hear," that there's been "too many yeses, not enough noes, not enough real," which means even "the best get torn." Who knew the dance track could be a cautionary tale as well? As Lil Mama raps, "You've been warned by the voice of the young." ...
Kfed may have physical custody of his children with Spears, but People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals is urging him to take the custody battle to the doghouse. In a letter faxed to Federline on Thursday, PETA President Ingrid Newkirk requested that he ask the judge for custody of the couple's pets. "It's no secret that Ms. Spears' impetuous 'pet' purchases and lack of caretaking skills have been a serious concern of ours," she wrote, noting that in 2006 the singer was "the overwhelming choice" for worst celebrity dog owner in polls conducted by New York Dog and Hollywood Dog magazines. Newkirk was also concerned that Britney's latest dog, London, was more of an "accessory" and noted that the Los Angeles chapter of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals had already investigated the dog's lack of veterinary care after breaking his leg when he was stepped on. "As a father, your main concern is the comfort and stability of your children," Newkirk wrote. "London and the other animals whom the boys consider to be part of the family have provided that comfort and stability ... being separated from the animal friends whom they share a bond with is undoubtedly traumatic for them." ...
Kanye West and designer Takashi Murakami, who have collaborated together on 'Ye's album covers, are putting their heads together again for a collection of gold, manga-style pendants, according to Women's Wear Daily. The rapper wore a diamond-studded one out to Givenchy's in New York earlier this week, according to WWD. "They'll be more accessible, they won't be all diamonds," he reportedly said. "The eyes are not perfectly done. Murakami cringes when he sees the eyes."
Beyoncé must be breathing a little easier — the singer hasn't encountered opposition from Muslim groups in Indonesia over her planned November 1 concert there, according to Reuters. She won't have to follow a strict dress code, which she would have had she performed in Malaysia, the country previously scheduled to host the show. ... Ginuwine has filed a lawsuit in New York against King Music Group Inc., according to AP. In the suit, the R&B star claims he was tricked into signing a contract with a record label that didn't even exist. He said he was persuaded to ink the deal back in May, and according to the contract, he was to receive $1.75 million, including a $500,000 advance, to record his first album for the label. But five months later, he hasn't put out any material and hasn't been paid a dime. The lawsuit claims there's no corporate record for King Music Group Inc. anywhere in New York, California, Florida or Tennessee. The filing charges breach of contract, fraud and negligent misrepresentation, and seeks $4 million in damages. ...
JA RULE JOINS 25 CENT AND COUNTLESS REGGAE ARTISTS IN HATE

I recommend that the Homophobic artists and try meeting with some of these groups that they hate so much to see how much we have in common rather than different.
Ja Rule, who was recently arrested and has a lurid history of violence with MURDER inc. seems like hardly the one to be judgemental, yet, in his recent COMPLEX magazine interview says...
Did you see that report about Congress preparing to hold hearings??
Ja: (interrupts) Yeah, they got my man Doug Morris under fire and shit, they got him going down to go speak to Congress about hip-hop lyrics, are you fucking serious? There's a fucking black kid right now about to get 25 years for having a fight with some white kids over hanging the nooses over the white tree, lets get to that. Let's get into shit like that, because that's what's tearing up America, not me calling a woman a bitch or a hoe on my rap songs. And if it is, then we need to go step to Paramount, and fucking MGM, and all of these other motherfuckers that's making all of these movies and we need to go step to MTV and Viacom, and lets talk about all these fucking shows that they have on MTV that is promoting homosexuality, that my kids can't watch this shit. Dating shows that's showing two guys or two girls in mid afternoon. Let's talk about shit like that! If that's not fucking up America, I don't know what is. There's a lot of issues we can address besides hip-hop, but they want to put everything on us like we're the problem. But see, and this is going to be a shameless fucking plug, but I said, "when everyone wants to point the finger, and ask why there's so much corruption, they only need to look in the mirror." It starts with themselves.
I agree Ja, look in the mirror, think about your jugement of two people in loving embrace.
While u oppose this, u embrace violence and degredation against women (those whom u supposedly love).
So illogical and so sad.

Reggae Artists Renounce Homophobia
BY KEITH BOYKIN, IN SEXUALITY
Three prominent reggae and dancehall performers have renounced homophobia and condemned violence against lesbians and gay men. Beenie Man, Sizzla and Capleton, each of whom have recorded anti-gay hate songs, have now signed onto a deal to stop the hate and stop the protests. The agreement, called the Reggae Compassionate Act, was brokered with top reggae promoters and Stop Murder Music activists.
The statement reads: "It must be clear there's no space in the music community for hatred and prejudice, including no place for racism, violence, sexism or homophobia...We do not encourage nor minister to HATE but rather uphold a philosophy of LOVE, RESPECT and UNDERSTANDING towards all human beings as the cornerstone of reggae. We agree to not make statements or perform songs that incite hatred or violence against anyone from any community."
I am cautiously optimistic about the agreement. As I recall, another agreement was reached years before and then violated. I can only hope that the artists will be true to their word this time. The agreement comes after a three-year campaign by a British-based group called Stop Murder Music. The campaign had resulted in the cancellation of hundreds of concerts and sponsorship deals in the U.K., and helped spurn the movement in the U.S.
As a result of the agreement, the campaign against the three artists will now be suspended, but organizers are urging journalists and other observers worldwide to monitor the performances and statements of Beenie Man, Sizzla and Capleton.
Meanwhile, five other artists who have recorded anti-gay music are still targeted. Elephant Man, TOK, Bounty Killa, Vybz Kartel and Buju Banton have not signed the Reggae Compassionate Act.
Gareth Williams, co-chair of the Jamaican gay group, J-Flag, hailed the statement as "a move in the right direction." He also said he hoped it was "not commercially motivated by the singers' desire to maintain their concert revenues, but a sincere commitment that will encourage an end to homophobic violence and to all violence against everyone."
I think that's optimistic. Actually, it would be ideal if the artists signed onto the agreement because they've seen the light, but in the end I'm not sure they have. On the one hand, I want the artists to do the right thing, regardless of what motivates them. If it takes money (or the loss of money) to inspire them, then so be it. On the other hand, money motivation only lasts so long.
The problem with being motivated solely by commercial interests is that those interests could change and their actions could change. The best solution is to keep pressing the artists by educating them and others so that they understand that violence against gays and lesbians, or against any group of people, is not acceptable behavior in society. The artists need to know that all humans deserve dignity and respect.

According to Sean, this may be "I Looked Back" by Jimmy Eaton & Larry Wagner, recorded by Perry Como.
If that's the case, I think we can safely move it out of the "country" category!
On the other hand, according to Steve, it was a duet performed by Buck Owens and Susan Raye in the 1960s, called "Looking Back to See,"
which would move it right back into the "country" category.

If I'd a Knowed that You'd a Wanted to of Went with Me, I'd a Seed that You'd a Got to Get to Go From Martin Mull's "Fernwood 2Night" TV show, sung by "Elwood P. Suggins" (courtesy of James)
She's Got Freckles On Her, But She's Pretty (courtesy of Charles) A novelty song from the 1940s by Larry Vincent (ASCAP)
I'd Like You a Whole Lot Better if We Slept Together (courtesy of Dan) We're pretty sure this is actually "I might like you better if we slept together," which is a line from the 1981 song "Never Say Never" by Romeo Void, a New Wave band - pretty much the least country-like song on the list! (You can listen to a RealAudio file on their website and hear for yourself.)
Then there's Tom Scott, who came up with an appropriate original title for me: "I Made Up The Title, You Make Up The Song"
Scott Orr went an extra step and actually wrote an original song: "I Kissed Her On the Lips, and Left Her Behind for You"
And my next favourite original title, from Laura: "Go Back To Texas and Cheesey French Fry Lake"
You can find another great list at www.coloradobluegrass.org/jokes.htm - there's some overlap, but Sandy has a lot of unique titles too!
