Chris Brown is feeling good with himself

Ξ October 29th, 2010 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Chris Brown, Rihanna |

It seems that the singer who managed to ruin his entire reputation with a bit of domestic violence against the wrong person now has a much better opinion of himself. This is what Chris Brown said recently: “Everything is good, I’m definitely – me personally and mentally – I’m a great guy now. I’m more of a person who is definitely more positive. I have new music coming real soon; I’m in the studio, back and forth, continuously, just having fun. I’m going to continue to make great dance videos and just be me.” Maybe he caught wind of that little story of Rihanna’s and realized that she’s still not over him. That would probably be enough to make Chris Brown feel warm and cuddly inside.

Love the Way You Lie Part 2

Ξ October 18th, 2010 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Eminem, Rihanna |

Eminem and Rihanna are going to reunite to record a sequel to their hit song ‘Love the Way You Lie’. The song, which is simply titled ‘Love the Way You Lie (Part 2)’, will feature the female side of the story line that began in the original song. And it seems that it’s going to be just as intense and emotional and the R&B singer and rapper’s first collaboration. Some of the lyrics go “Even angels have their wing cut schemes, and you take that to new extremes, but you will always be my hero, even though you lost your mind.” The song will be produced by Alex Da Kid and will be featured on Rihanna’s upcoming album ‘Loud’, which hits stores on November 16.

Rihanna Back Peddles

Ξ October 14th, 2010 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Katy Perry, Ke$ha, Lady Gaga, Rihanna |

Rihanna recently made some comments saying that Katy Perry, Lady Gaga and Ke$ha’s music were generic. The Barbadian R&B singer said “Katy is my friend! I would never diss her. I don’t see her as my rival. My only rival is myself, because I always wanna get better and better. I meant all the producers, that give singers like Katy, GaGa or Ke$ha always the same kind of pop-songs. They think, for sure one of them will take it and make it a single. They don’t realize that everyone of us has their own style. I love Katy’s music! That’s why I wanna make a duet with her. We’re already working on it.” Do you think she’s sincere or was she back peddling?

Rihanna Plans to Collaborate with Katy Perry

Ξ October 9th, 2010 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Katy Perry, Rihanna |

Rihanna recently revealed that she and friend Katy Perry are planning to collaborate on a song, either for the Barbadian R&B singer’s upcoming album ‘Loud!’ or for the pop star’s re-release of ‘Teenage Dream’. Rihanna explains “We just clicked. We have similar personalities and a similar sense of humour and from there she just seemed like a really down to earth person. In this industry you don’t meet a lot of people that are genuine, but Katy is such a free spirit, she has no edit button! We want to get in the studio and hopefully make something for this album, who knows – or maybe for her re-release. We want to do something together for sure.” This is interesting considering how Rihanna called Katy and a couple of others generic pop stars during a recent BBC Radio 1 interview.

Rihanna changes her look

Ξ September 29th, 2010 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Eminem, Rihanna |

Again… or at least this would be the general assumption if you take a peek at her latest album cover. It would seem that Rihanna has managed to grow a bit of hair and it certainly looks a lot more decent that her previous little “experiment”. The new album is called “Loud”, which probably hints that Rihanna has been experimenting with metal again… or so she might believe. It’s time to see if her success is still alive and breathing Since she decided to work with Eminem recently that might hint at a bit of a crisis but it’s probably nothing Rihanna can’t handle.

La la la la

I want you to love me, like I’m a hot guy
Keep thinkin’ of me, doin’ what you like
So boy forget about the world cuz it’s gon’ be me and you tonight
I wanna make your bed for ya, then imma make you swallow your pride
[CHORUS]
Want you to make me feel like I’m the only girl in the world
Like I’m the only one that you’ll ever love
Like I’m the only one who knows your heart
Only girl in the world…

Cuz I’m the only one who understands how to make you feel like a man
Want you to make me feel like I’m the only girl in the world
Like I’m the only one that you’ll ever love
Like I’m the only one who knows your heart
Only one…
[VERSE 2]
Want you to take me like a thief in the night
Hold me like a pillow, make me feel right
Baby I’ll tell you all my secrets that I’m keepin’, you can come inside
And when you enter, you ain’t leavin’, be my prisoner for the night
[CHORUS]
Want you to make me feel like I’m the only girl in the world
Like I’m the only one that you’ll ever love
Like I’m the only one who knows your heart
Only girl in the world…
Like I’m the only one that’s in command
Cuz I’m the only one who understands, like I’m the only one who knows your heart, only one…

Taylor Momsen Back Peddles

Ξ August 27th, 2010 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Rihanna |

Taylor Momsen is in the business of saying inconsistent nonsense. During an interview, the former ‘Gossip Girl’ actress turned rock singer was called out on describing Rihanna as a “rock wannabe”. Taylor back peddled and said that she was misquoted. She said “[I was] arguing the difference between rock vs. pop, and that it’s a very pop-oriented world at the moment, and that there is no rock. And people that dress [like rock stars] and have guitars in their music — that’s the closest thing audiences have to rock right now, and we’re looking to bring back a real rock band. I wasn’t insulting Rihanna. Rihanna’s great.” Assuming you’re a rock star and implying that you’re part of the only real rock band is a little presumptuous.

Lil Kim and Rihanna Collaboration

Ξ July 8th, 2010 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Rihanna |

Rihanna is reportedly working on a collaboration with Lil Kim. The rapper recently had an interview with Australia’s Lifelounge about her friendship with the 22-year old Barbadian singer saying “I’m a huge Rihanna fan. And she’s a friend of mine, so if I had to guess, I’m 90% sure that song is probably in the works. I look at it this way: if it happens, it happens. And it should be a surprise. It shouldn’t be something that people are anticipating, or have their own personal opinions on it before it even comes out. So I probably won’t ever mention that again.”

For a second week, Eminem’s album “Recovery” is still on top. This is really of no surprise, the album selling 313,000 as Nielsen SoundScan reported. The album was sold in 1.1 million copies in the U.S., in two week’s time. The song “Love The Way You Lie” featuring Rihanna, also stays number one for a second week on the Digital Songs chart. The song was downloaded 280,000 times during these two weeks. The first single of this album was “Not Afraid” released on April 29 and landed number one on the Billboard Hot 100.

Details on Rihanna’s New Album

Ξ June 18th, 2010 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Michael Jackson, Ne-Yo, Rihanna |

Rihanna’s last album ‘Rated R’ was a big disappointment and I am hoping that whatever new music she has in store would be much better. The Vice President of Def Jam, Bu Thiam, recently shared a little about the singer’s upcoming album. He told Vibe, “I’m trying to push her to where every song will be a hit from 1 to 12. I’m talking about NO album fillers. Our bar for this album is Michael Jackson’s Thriller. We got smashes from Stargate, Ester Dean, Mel & Mus and Rock City. We’re definitely going in with Ne-Yo, The-Dream and other writers and producers that have always been a part of her creative process since day one.” I hope they deliver the goods.

Lady Gaga on Top in UK

Lady Gaga has sold over 4 million digital copies of her music in the UK! That makes the princess of pop the number 1 digital selling artist across the pond. The singer broke Rihanna’s record which was at 2.5 million digital downloads last year. The Black Eyed Peas came in at second place to Lady Gaga as the hip hop band raked in 3.3 million digital downloads. Congratulations to Lady Gaga for once again making history and breaking another record! She is unstoppable! I can’t see an end to the craze surrounding her. It just goes to show that she’s not just some passing fad.

Kanye West Performs at BET Awards

Kanye West is set to take the stage at the BET Awards on June 27. That would mark the rapper’s first awards show performance since interrupting Taylor Swift at the 2009 MTV VMAs. Kanye is nominated for two BET awards including Video of the Year for ‘Run This Town’ with Jay-Z and Rihanna. On Tuesday, he performed at 3 different high schools in the Chicago area as part of the Kanye West Foundation’s annual ‘Stay in School’ event. Kanye also made an appearance at a Manhattan nightclub for a listening party featuring songs from his upcoming album ‘Good Ass Job’. It’s about time he got back in the spotlight!

Among the many, many surprises prepared by the American Idol producers that got leaked on the internet was also the rumor of Janet Jackson’s appearance on the show. True enough, the singer did make a “surprise” appearance, apparently at a very good moment in order to break-up a very nasty sounding chorus formed of the contestants and sing “Nothing” and “Nasty”, which is quite ironic in hindsight. Also Janet Jackson probably took the opportunity to show off her new haircut and shock her fans… some of whom might have confused her for Rihanna. She might want to get ready for a lot of that since now the two are very much similar.

Jay-Z Rihanna

Ξ May 11th, 2010 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Jay-Z, Rihanna |

Even though Katy Perry seems to have taken a title more fitting for this type of idea, Jay-Z is going to have to do with Rihanna for a while. It seems the rapper has had one of his amazing business ideas recently and it involves Rihanna being the ?mascot? for a chain of burlesque clubs. This is what a source said about Jay-Z?s new idea: “All the top people think she’s smoking hot. They’re desperate to make her the face and body of a new burlesque club. Jay sees it as a great business opportunity.” Sure? what woman doesn?t like to have her body exploited for the purpose of profit? Rihanna?s probably going to get a real hoot out of this one, but what of Matt Kemp? How kindly will he take to this idea?

Rihanna Joins Lilith Fair

Ξ April 13th, 2010 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Kesha, Rihanna, Selena Gomez |

Rihanna was recently announced to be the latest addition to the 2010 Lilith Fair tour stop in Salt Lake City on June 12. The Barbadian singer joins the likes of Sarah McLachlan, Colbie Caillat, Emmylou Harris, Erykah Badu, Indigo Girls, Jill Scott, Kelly Clarkson, Ke$ha, Mary J. Blige, Norah Jones, Sarah Bareilles, Selena Gomez, Sheryl Crow, Sia, Sugarland and more. Tickets for the Salt Lake City date go on sale on April 17 at LilithFair.com. Now that is a show that?s more likely to sell out as compared to dates for her Last Girl on Earth tour. Maybe that?s why she decided to take the gig. She has to make up for her own tour.

Nicki Minaj fires her manager

Ξ April 12th, 2010 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Kesha, Music, Rihanna |

This is probably part of not taking herself too seriously and just loosening up a bit and going with the entertainment. It seems that Nicki Minaj has recently fired her manager, Debbie Antney, who has been with her for three years a short time after dropping out of the tour with Rihanna and Kesha. This is what Debbie Antney said on the matter: “I received a letter, which was a suspension. The next letter that came in was a cease and desist in doing all business with Nicki Minaj from Nicki’s attorney. I love Nicki. I wish her the most success. It’s not about the music, she’s like one of my children? I wish her no harm, only much success.” Oh well, Nicki Minaj is probably going to manage all by her lonesome? after all, it?s just entertainment, isn?t it?

Kiely Williams Defends Herself

Ξ April 9th, 2010 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Lady Gaga, Rihanna, YouTube, sex |

Kiely Williams, formerly of 3LW and the Cheetah Girls, released a rather offensive song and video this week called ?Spectacular?. It?s some desperate attempt to get some recognition in the music industry that ended up being a total failure because while people did get talking about her, they don?t have nice things to say. The singer posted a lengthy note in the description for the music video on her official YouTube page saying ?I am playing a character in the music video for the song Spectacular, as I did in the Cheetah Girl movies. Young women across the country get intoxicated and have unprotected sex. That’s a fact. I recorded the song to bring attention to this frighteningly prevalent activity. It is absurd to infer or suggest that I am condoning this behavior.? She goes as far as comparing herself to Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Rihanna, Madonna and Monique. She wishes.

Chris Brown Has No Venue for Birthday

Chris Brown is getting ready to celebrate his 21st birthday this May and is planning a huge party for it. However, the R&B singer has a problem on his hand as nobody wants to host it. Chris has been scouting for clubs all over the place, including New York, Miami and Las Vegas, but no one is giving him the ok to have his part at their venue. A source said ?(Some club promoters) don’t want to mess up their relationship, or their potential relationship, with Rihanna.? I can?t say I blame them. The Barbadian babe easily means more money for them as compared to Chris.

According to People, the 22-year old Barbadian singer, who spent some time with a drum set in her video for ?Rude Boy?, is learning how to play so she can perform live on her upcoming tour of Europe. As for how Rihanna?s lessons are doing, Travis seems to be impressed with her work as he went on his Twitter to say ?She JAMS!!!!! Watch out for her!!? It should definitely prove to be a treat for anyone who would be catching Rihanna in concert.

Beyonce is pregnant?

Not only does Amy Winehouse want children now, but it looks like Beyonce might already be expecting her first. This is the news that can be found on blogging site Mediatakeout: “According to our source Beyonce is doing fine and resting (for now), but she’s expected to continue working throughout her pregnancy. And we’re also told that Jay-Z is extremely happy to be having his first child with Beyonce.” The official representatives of Beyonce and Jay-Z of course are refusing to comment on all of this, but then again that?s only natural. It might all be a hoax, but you have to observe how much of a workaholic Beyonce is. She just has to catch up to Rihanna, doesn?t she?

There comes a time in a man?s life when all he wants to do is settle down and just have a family of his own? or at least day-dream a bit about doing that. It seems that time has come for 50 Cent and he decided he would like to share his thoughts with all of us. This is what he said abut the matter: “I would kiss Beyonce, Lady Gaga and Rihanna. I would marry Beyonce, Lady Gaga and Rihanna in Africa, I’d have 3 wives! And I would avoid wearing condoms and have really big families.” Such a great marketing scheme and 50 Cent wants to take it to Africa? Those are like the top three female pop artists? they probably make more in a month combined than 50 Cent does in a decade.

Katy Perry is on the cover of this month?s Nylon magazine where she talks about her new music, Russell Brand and her thoughts on her partners in pop music, including Lady Gaga, Ke$ha, Rihanna and Taylor Swift. The singer differentiates herself from other pop princesses saying ?You’ve got GaGa, who’s like, from outer space; you’ve got Ke$ha, who’s the beer-drinking, house-party girl; and then you’ve got Rihanna, who’s transforming the urban world into her own outer space. But I feel like you’re missing an Alanis Morissette, in 2010. I love how she was a voice for a lot of people who couldn’t explain their feelings. But it’s not like I’m not gonna compete. I love a good dose of healthy competition. It’s not going to be the same that they’re doing??
