New Music: Prince feat. Ledisi – Ain’t Gonna Miss U (When U’re Gone)
Oh lord. What a combo. As you should know by now, Prince is officially back, and he continues to release new music! The icon has liberated the new signle “Ain’t Gonna Miss U (When U’re Gone),” which features Ledisi.
The Grammy-nominated vocalist joins the Purple One on this pure funk classic. Reminiscent of the Prince we all love. The horns and reverberating bassline and funky worm vocal effects will have you undeliably bobbin along. Along with his collaborations with his female rock band 3rd Eye Girl, you can hear Prince on Janelle Monae’s upcoming album The Electric Lady.
Singer, songwriter and performer Prince has been one of the most successful musicians of his generation. Beginning his career in the late 1970s, the Minneapolis native continues to captivate fans all over the world.
That magnetic allure and still-formidable star power is the centerpiece of a new book from MSNBC talk show host and culture critic Touré titled I Would Die 4 U: Why Prince Became an Icon. Defying traditional categories of race, gender, and sexuality, he nonetheless presents a very traditional conception of religion and God in his music. By demystifying the man and his music, I Would Die 4 U shows us how Prince defined a generation.
Twitter Oh For Twitter Wars:Say What Now? Nene Leakes Snaps At Wendy Williams Over Relationship Comments
Wendy Williams has been known to make a catty comment or two during her "Hot Topics" segment on "The Wendy Show." And earlier today, she upset "RHOA" queen bee Nene Leakes when she made a few comments about Nene's relationship with Gregg.
Wendy was talking about the lack of chemistry the two have and how the relationship seems o be strictly a GREAT friendship...with business benefits. And Wendy also said NeNe shouldn't do a big TV wedding, because we all know it would be a lie.
Obviously, the comments upset Nene so much that she tweeted,
SMH.....Nene has made a few appearances to the "Wendy" show and they always seemed to get along great. It will be interesting to watch how the two act towards each other in the future.
Kevin Hart DESTROYS Mike Epps During TWITTER BATTLE!!
Mike Epps fired a few shots at Hollywood's hottest comedian, Kevin Hart, and ignited a Twitter shoot out that left one of them bloody.
It all started when Mike (during a moment of reflection and homage to Katt Williams) tweeted,
And then Mike's Twitter followers started co-signing which got him pumped up a little more.
And for anyone who called him a hater....he had this...
Mind you....Kevin was pretty silent during most of this exchange (because he was probably working on "RHOH"). But later, he got wind of the shots fired and said....
One he got started.....it was like he emptied an assault rifle.
Kevin eventually ended his assault with....
And after all of that, Mike Epps came back with this...
Oh....
TEAS: Is Claudia Jordan & Benzino Dating or is Tom Joyner?
So word on the street is Claudia Jordan is the new lady in Benzino's life!! And the photo above is doing a lot to prove right!! However, I'm not sure if these two are in a relationship, or if this was just an organic moment from a photoshoot. Whatever it was, it looks like these two are definitely feeling each other.
Both Claudia Jordan and Benzino were also spotted shopping together so could this be true love? Or can these be some photos from behind the scenes of Vh1's "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta"?
In the meantime, check out some more pictures of Claudia Jordan and Benzino swapping spit
Now the two shopping together below:
I'm almost positive that we will be witnessing these scenes on "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta", however, I'm wondering how Karlie Redd feels about Benzino's new love?
But maybe Claudia got her pimping game on. It’s also rumored she’s been dating newly divorced radio pioneer, Tom Joyner (of the Tom Joyner Morning Show). Tom was married to Donna Richardson Joyner for 12 years and Allegedly, Tom has been ‘taking care of her financially’.
TEAS IS HOT! This is the first time that we’ve heard a rumor about these two. What we DO know is that they work together professionally and on this season of Celebrity Apprentice, Claudia played for his Tom Joyner Foundation, which raises money for historically black colleges and universities . In an interview for their web site, she explained why she chose his foundation:“My brother is a teacher. I know the importance of education. I love what the [Foundation] does!”
But does that REALLY mean anything? Who knows? What are your thoughts?
Mathew Knowles Sets the Record Straight on Beyonce Firing Him: ‘It was a MUTUAL decision.’
Last month, for the first time, Beyonce Knowles opened up, on camera, speaking on what many of us knew, her business relationship with her father, Mathew, was officially a wrap. In the press and public, there was lots of speculation about what had really happened between the two–was it the fact that Mathew and Tina had divorced (in 2009), or was it the fact that the 61-year-old fathered a child with another woman? Welp, according to what both parties say, it was neither. In her interview with Oprah Winfrey, Beyonce explained:
“It took a while for me and my dad to have an understanding. When I turned 18 and started handling my business more, he went into shock … I’d say no to something, and he’d book it anyway … We would fight sometimes, and it took about two years… for him to realize, ‘Oh, she is an adult now, and if she doesn’t wanna do something, I can’t make her do it.’”
And while Beyonce’s father has yet to publicly comment on what happened, he opened up in a new interview with UK’s The Sun.
”Normally I hate to talk about anything personal, but it would be a lie if I did not say it has been difficult,” he tells the paper. “It was hard for me to let her go. It was hard for both of us to let each other go, and let’s be clear on that. She didn’t let me go; we both let each other go. This was not a normal ending of a business agreement. This was a dad and a daughter, and it was incredibly painful and it had some difficulties. But I try to always have a positive mind about things and you got to do it the right way.”
Yeah hmmm okay?
Meet Bad Lt Tim Dluhos Who Tweets Racist commenst while working for the FDNY!
A New York City EMS lieutenant broke down in tears on the street on Friday when he was confronted over racist tweets and offense comments he made on his Twitter feed.
Timothy Dluhos, who works for the Fire Department of New York, made posts calling Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who is Jewish, 'King Heeb,' referring to black people as 'coloreds' and calling Asians 'chinks,' according to reports.
He also tweeted that his most prized possession is Nazi gold pin with a German U-Boat and a swastika.
The New York Post discovered the officials social media account, which featured a profile picture of Adolf Hitler, and confronted Dluhos outside his home on Staten Island.
'My life is ruined. Oh, my God, I’m so sorry,' he cried as he broke down in tears, the newspaper reports.
'There has got to be a lot worse out there than me,' he said.
The Post reports that Dluhos' online comments are part of an epidemic at the FDNY, which is so packed with white men that federal courts have ordered it to change its hiring practices and become more diverse.
'He is not an isolated case,' retired veteran of the city EMS said of Dluhos. 'He’s a symptom of a sick system. If you work in the city for police, fire or EMS and tell me you’re surprised by this, you’re a liar.'
The 34-year-old veteran of the department, who made 93,000 in 2011, goes by the online name 'Bad Lieutenant.'
Dluhos works at EMS Station 57 in Bedford-Stuyvessant in Brooklyn, New York
On February 12, he tweeted 'I’m going to give up racial insults for Lent..' Then later he wrote, 'Jesus that didn’t [last] too long. F***en chinks can’t drive.'
He wrote about the fire station where he works in Brooklyn's Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood, saying 'Hahaha! I work with the coloreds. For 12 years so that s*** just run off on me.'
Several times he referred disparagingly to the mayor and his Jewish upbringing.
He mentioned the incident where groundhog Staten Island Chuck bit Bloomberg in the fact, saying 'Too bad he didn’t have rabies or AIDS and too bad he didn’t bite King Heeb’s face off.'
He also tweeted, 'That’s how King Jew sees it. Ban all guns & shootings will go down in NYC. But it’s the criminals w/the guns.'
Despite the comments, he was pictured smiling at his promotion ceremony with the mayor.
He repeatedly posted photos of naked, obese women.
He also said, 'I’m really a dirty pervert. I see a girl with tight pants on and my eyes immediately focus on her crotch to look for camel toe.'
Dluhos also posted several pictures of himself with guns.
He tried to explain his posts to the Post, saying between sobs that he 'didn't hate anyone.'
'I’ve seen strangers shot and killed. I’ve seen families torn apart by violence. It’s a damn shame that gang members ruin it for hardworking, struggling people,' he said.
Late, as he left for work, he said: 'I guess I should go enjoy my last day on the job.'
The FDNY says Dluhos' posts are 'under review.'
Lindsay Lohan Parties Ahead Of Rehab Stint
Though Lindsay Lohan has been ordered to 90 days of rehabilitation, the party prone starlet seemed to have spent the weekend enjoying the California club scene.
According to an Us Weekly source, Lohan, 26, was spotted “drinking Ketel One vodka on the rocks and smoking Parliaments” at a night club in San Diego March 22.
Lohan was also photographed on Saturday leaving a private club in Santa Monica. In photos obtained by the Daily Mail, the “Mean Girls” actress tries to cover her face to enter a waiting SUV after exiting the club.
The starlet is seen ducking in the back seat of the car with rumored boyfriend Avi Snow. A guitarist in indie rock band City of the Sun, Snow is also a New York night club promoter.
Lohan is apparently choosing to spend her days before entering rehab hitting the hot spots with her new flame.
“It doesn’t have to be locked like a correctional facility. It doesn’t have to be that hardcore. But it has to be a place where if she leaves, they notify us,” Santa Monica City Attorney Terry White told the Daily News.
“She has to follow the program and can’t leave the property,” White, a key prosecutor behind her plea deal, said. “If she leaves, it’s a violation.”
The actress was sentenced to the rehab along with 18 months of psychotherapy, 30 days of community service and two years probation after taking a surprise, no-jail plea deal last week and pleading no contest to lying to police and reckless driving.

In the magazine, former beauty queen Vanessa, who turned 50-years-old this month, shared the beauty secrets she's passed on to her beautiful daughters on everything from botox to maintaining a youthful glow.

Agreed.

The 2013 @MTV VMAs will be LIVE at @BarclaysCenter on 8/25! #RoadToTheVMAs #HelloBrooklyn"
Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz talked about the announcement and the honor saying to MTV News:
"From hip-hop to hipsters, Jay- Z to MGMT, Brooklyn musicians have a long history of dominating the 'spotlight' on MTV. Brooklyn is a cultural Mecca — the hippest, coolest place for young people across the country, and has played a crucial role in the careers of some of 2013's biggest bands, like Fun. and the Lumineers.
"Now, it is only fitting that the first time Brooklyn will ever host a major awards show, we are welcoming the most exciting and talked about spectacle in the music industry ... I'm so thrilled that I'll probably get 'no sleep till Brooklyn' hosts the VMAs!"
Welcome back to New York VMAs. Brooklyn's going hard in 2013....
Will Smith Turned Down Lead in ‘Django Unchained’
*Will Smith was initially rumored to be in talks for the role of Django when production began in 2011 on Quentin Tarantino’s slavery-era film “Django Unchained,” but the part eventually went to Jamie Foxx.
Smith has now confirmed that he was offered the part first, but rejected it over concerns Christoph Waltz’s bounty hunter character was the better role.
He tells Entertainment Weekly, “Django wasn’t the lead, so it was like, I need to be the lead. The other character was the lead!… I was like, ‘No, Quentin, please, I need to kill the bad guy!’”
Waltz went on to win a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his role as Dr. King Schultz, but Smith insists he is not bitter about missing out on a part in the film.
“I thought (the movie) was brilliant. Just not for me,” he said.
Nike Barkley Posite Max – Pure Platinum – Cyber Blue
Charles Barkley is the latest non-Penny athlete to see his sneakers equipped with the Nike Foamposite technology. Of course calling them his sneakers is a little bit of a stretch, as the Round Mound of Rebound definitely won’t be lacing up in this pair to play any time soon. Still, they do have his name attached along with “CB” logo hits and the “Not a role model” script along the bottom. This new pair that’s popped up uses pure platinum and cyber blue, with the blue ending up particularly striking thanks to the speckle treatment. See more after the jump and wait with us for up to date release info on this Nike Barkely Posite Max.
Ray J Caught Up In Backstage Fight, & Dating Teairra Mari
Ray J’s fighting mad in a recent video leak. Caught on amateur video posted on TMZ.com, the singer is seen trading insults with a woman before trading punches with man. It all went down backstage at Los Angeles’ Club Nokia Thursday night. E-40, Mack 10, Warren G and Too $hort had just performed as part of the West Coast Fest concert. The woman is heard on the video accusing Ray J of calling her a fat b****. She then goes off on him with a series of insults. TMZ claims the woman is the niece of Death Row Records co-founder Suge Knight. The video also shows footage of Ray J and another man in a physical altercation. Bodyguards quickly jump in to separate the two. TMZ says no arrests were made.
Before the fight Ray-J and former Roc Nation princess Teairra Mari were all hugged up on stage at Westfest which was held at the Nokia Center in Los Angeles. Spotted @ All West Everything
At the beginning of the night, the new couple were seen kissing and being very flirtatious with each other on stage as Mack 10 performed his set for fans. No word on how long the two have been dating, but last night it was clear that the two have a very hot and cold relationship.
Ray J is currently filming the upcoming Oxygen reality series Bad Girls All-Star Battle.” The singer is hosting the challenge.
AND FINALLY FROM “THE CRAZY PEOPLE SHOPPING AT WALMART” FILES
‘Double Stuffed’
You know what was a logical and pleasant revelation? The double-stuffed Oreo. Wanna know what isn’t pleasant? The double-stuffed jorts. I’d ask you “Who Wears It Better?”
With his blue velvet jacket on, gold silk shirt with just the right button job to show off some chest fur, his curly fro and fly-inspired sunglasses, isn’t Prince just the definition of rock star opulence? I mean, he does it up at all times just because he can, and can be seen practicing for performances in sparkling silver wedge heels, a hat shaped like a lion and flashy yellow pants (see the excerpt from his interview with the magazine). And by this time, we know that he’s the only guy who can adorn himself like this and still get comments about how alluring he is, even at the age of 54. He just rocks. Maybe that’s why he’s covering the newest issue of Billboard as he’s been announced as the upcoming recipient of the Billboard Icon Award. Just last year Stevie Wonder was given such an honor, and Prince will receive his during the televised awards ceremony on Sunday, May 19 (He’ll also reportedly perform during the show as he picks up the award).
In the newest issue of the magazine, Prince talks about his battle to have full ownership over his songs and work (and I think we’re all hoping he’ll touch on why he and YouTube don’t gel–seriously though, I can’t watch none of your videos!?), his three decades in music, and more as interviewer Gail Mitchell tries to navigate the world famous Paisley Park production studios, and the funk-tastic yet mysterious creature that is Prince. If you’d like to check out an excerpt of the issue, and even buy it, check out Billboard.com to get your Prince fix on. But until then, what do you think of his funky-fresh-dressed-to-impress cover?
Prince has released a new track. Provocatively called “Screwdriver,”
it’s a delicious mesh of guitar pop and harks back to the Purple One’s Parade era.
LISTEN:
Now available on the diminutive star’s website, some like Vulture think the combination of ”Screwdriver’s” release, Prince’s Billboard cover, and recent Minneapolis Dakota Jazz Club shows are signs of an imminent new album.He also unveiled his new website, www.20pr1nc3.com.

The track appears on Tiffany’s mixtape Yellow Tape. And Kim is back on her sneaker wearing New York ish. Not sure about the name of this track though...

Shawty Lo says “I wasn’t ARRESTED!” Explains Being in Handcuffs
Well Here is the pic that started the rumors.
It appears a bunch of assumptions about 36-year-old rapper Shawty Lo (real name Carlos Walker) garnered even MORE negative attention about the almost-reality star. If you’ve been following our coverage, then you’d remember that the rapper had a pending reality show called “All My Baby Mamas” tentatively to air on the Oxygen network. To our knowledge, the show has since been cancelled due to a petition and an overall negative response from the public. Fast forward to the present day and Shawty Lo was back in the news recently, when a photo of him in handcuffs hit the net. Various blog sites reported that the rapper was arrested, but we’ve now learned that he was only shooting a music video for a song called “Petition,” where he is in handcuffs in one scene. His publicist Kali Bowyer spoke on the allegations:
“Not one of those blogs fact checked with me… And failing to pay child support just isn’t true!”
Oh well the show still is canceled!

Ex-Girlfriend Brooke Crittendon REVEALS Kanye West Is VULNERABLE & INSECURE, Says Kim Kardashian "Fits His Brand"
You can learn a lot about a person when their "ex" starts spilling intimate details. And though Brooke Crittendon didn't throw her ex-Kanye West completely under the bus during a recent interview with The Sun, she did give an interesting perspective on why he ended up in the arms of reality tv starlet Kim K.
Brooke, who dated Kanye from 2004 to 2006 (before he got engaged to Alexis Phifer), explained her thoughts about the pairing of Kanye and Kim by bascially saying the "relationship" compliments his ego. Obvi. She said:
“For Kanye, what other person besides Kim Kardashian is there? There’s HalleBerry, J.Lo and Beyonce, but they are all taken. She fits into his brand. Part of being untouchable is having what other people want. It’s about saying, ‘Everybody wants her and she wants me.' That makes sense in Kanye’s world."
She adds that a man like Kanye wants certain things from his career and for his life. That checklist will include, money, fame, the hot chick and the kids to go along with it. And she confirmed 'Ye's been eyeing the sextape star turned self-loving reality star for a minute now:
"I know he has had a thing with her for a while. I’m sure he watched her [sex] tape. After we broke up, we caught up as friends and he mentioned her, I knew something was there ... Them being together satisfies them for now. Having a baby ticks a box. She wanted kids and it’s his legacy.”
Brooke also credited Jay-Z with having a huge influence on Kanye settling down with Kim.
“He admires Jay-Z and they are very close. Over the years Jay has been a role model to him. Whether it is starting to be more mature, taking chances with clothes or getting married and starting a family, ultimately he takes those cues from Jay.”
Though it seems Brooke suspects their relationship won't last (since it will only momentarily satisfy Kayne), she admitted that dating Mr. West had its perks.
“By day I was working in an office (she was a production assistant at MTV) and in the evening this fairy godmother would arrive and I’d have all these amazing experiences. It was like a two-year trip to Disneyland.
Our first anniversary was the first day of his tour in Miami. After the show we went back to our suite and there were hundreds of roses and the orchestra section from his concert were in there playing the song, It’s Our Anniversary, by Tony! Toni! Tone!"
She also revealed something you might not expect about Kanye...he's vulnerable and insecure. Actually...you may have guessed that.
“He was not macho — he needed you to be with him and needed your opinion. He was quite vulnerable. He was insecure as he couldn’t be with me every day. I got the impression he worried he wasn’t good enough for me. He needs people to tell him he is good and that he is needed and wanted. He wouldn’t start his show unless I was at the side of the stage. One night the show was delayed because he couldn’t find me."
Really Brooke? Despite his insecurity, it didn't stop him from living the life of a rockstar which included all those OTHER chicks. Brooke said his cheating is what led to their breakup.
“I was very naive. I was a normal girl and in my life you meet a guy, you go on three dates and that’s your boyfriend. But he was a superstar and it got too much for me to handle.
There was a lot of attention from other women. Kanye was very open and honest but it ended up with me knowing too much. I don’t want to be silly and say it wasn’t cheating because I knew about it. I was never OK being one of many — or even one of a few."
Brooke added that what distinguishes her from Kim is that she's an ordinary girl and wasn't willing to conform to Kanye's expectations and be robbed of her individuality.
We've heard she isn't little miss innocent either when it comes to cheating ways. But that's for another day. We guess the grass is always greener....
Faith Evans speaks on Finding Biggie’s Murderer, and Lil Kim’s Shade
Faith Evans hit up the Wendy Williams show and dished on her bambinos (the similarities between CJ and Biggie), bringing Biggie’s killer to justice and her most recent encounter with Lil Kim. Peep some excerpts below.
On what their son CJ knows about his father:
“I don’t have to tell him much at all. I think between him spending time with Ms. Wallace, Cease (Lil Cease) D-Rock and doing the movie–he has had such a great history lesson on his dad. The funny little things that he does that he would have never seen him do like flick his toes together or the way he used his one finger to rub his nose when his sinuses are bothering him, a lot of stuff that his dad used to do that he does.”
On finding the person responsible for Biggie’s murder:
We haven’t laid that to rest.We still very much want to see the person responsible brought to justice. That means more to us than anything. We’ve never entered into a lawsuit for any financial gain. We’ve paid millions of dollars just in lawyers fees over the years. When they’re gonna step up and and say hey we’re gonna solve this thing, then we’ll pick it back up. But there’s no point in paying lawyers fees if then LAPD isn’t really cooperating.”
On if she is has made up with Lil Kim:
“I’m not tripping. I’ve made peace with first of all God a long time ago, especially since we lost him all of that certainly went out the window. I would even say before he passed away I removed myself from any ill feelings towards her for that.”
On the last time she saw Lil Kim:
“We were at Puff’s white party in LA and I ran up to her and got her attention and said congratulations on everything god bless you and she looked at me and said, “Who is that?” I think she knows where I was coming from and she knows I’m in a different place.
Watch the clip:
Sounds like Faith has definitely moved on. And in other news, her hit reality show ‘R& B Divas’ co-starring Nicci Gilbert-Daniels, Syleena Johnson, Monifah Carter and Keke Wyatt was renewed for a second season today by TV One and will resume production in Atlanta later this month.

Consequence EXPOSES Kanye West For Allegedly Gossiping & Cheating With Kim, Raqi Thunda For Passing Diseases & Others Who WRONGED Him
"LAHH 3" star Consequence stopped by Power 105 1's "The Breakfast Club" with his girlfriend/baby mama Jen The Pen where he gave a no-holds barred interview explaining his break from Kanye West, how he feels betrayed by his cousin Q-Tip and his complete disgust with co-star Raqi Thunda. Here are the highlights:
On Raqi Thunda:
Consequence called her out regarding her "radio career" saying all she did was fetch water at Sirius radio. Bloop. He called her "basic" and said she took a base salary for "L&HH 3" and doesn't even have representation. "You moving like a base head out here. You a racoon out here in these streets you starving. And you passing niggaz diseases. You messy."
On Joe Budden:
Says he has no desire to work with Joe...because it would be for free. He added that Joe once got hit in the head by Raekwon.
On Kanye West:
"Basically, this is what happened. Q-Tip talks like a girl. Listen, he goes and he tells Kanye behind my back about the baby. I didn’t want Kanye to know because we were still going through money things and it was nasty. It was a lot of things that was involved. A lot of people who was involved with me and Kanye not bumping no more. When I did the Sway interview, I had flew out to London. We was really trying to make it not go past ‘Man Purses.’”
Jen the Pen was VERY upset that Kanye West did not send them a gift or a card when they had their child. She called him "tacky." Though Consequence and Kanye had a falling out, the couple felt that their 10-year friendship should have meant a little more to him.
Jen also revealed that they had Kanye's back when he and Kim had their "first" affair while Kim was with Reggie Bush. They never "outed" them and kept it a secret.
He added that his other major issue is that Kanye likes to say he is one of the greatest rappers of all-time but doesn't give him due credit (he says he's ghost-written several rhymes for him). He also revealed that he was writing for Q-Tip and Phife by the time he was 18.
He added that all he really wants is "5 Minutes." At some point the interview got a little greasy and he let it be known that "5 mins" was "Queens" talk for a five-minute fight. He said he'd like 5 mins with Kanye, Big Sean, Pusha T and Q-Tip. Shots fired G.O.O.D. Music.
On Q-Tip
Cons accused Q-Tip of betraying him to get to Kanye. “She said it so let’s just clear the air. Q-Tip, because he was trying to finagle his way in the door – Kanye was my connect. The whole world know that,” Consequence revealed. “But because Q-Tip has issues with his mortality, so to speak. He’s on G.O.O.D. Music now because he was running around telling me little secrets about Kanye. Trying to angle. You know what I’m saying? But how you gonna angle me when you’re supposed to be my family?”
Watch the interview:
WOW….That is a lot of Tea!
