The self-proclaimed "Baddest Bitch" wants everyone to know that it may be a recession for the rest of the world, but not for Trina. In her new song "That's My Attitude," Trina spits, "Money over everything, I'm all about my change, I'm still rich, I'm still the baddest bitch in the game." The Miami-bred rapper is more known for her plumped up backside than her rhymes, but with Nicki Minaj bri...
Uh oh. Usually when Timbaland and/or Lil' Wayne are called in to lend a hand to a well-known artist, it's usually because they're trying to make a "statement" and switch genres, or attempting to plug a leak in the sinking boat known as their career. When 50 Cent was struggling to get momentum for his "Curtis" LP, he threw up the Bat signal and in swooped Timbaland and Justin Timberlake with "A...
GUCCI! When in Rome, do as the Romans do. T.I. got caught up in a situation with the police, sat in the slammer for a hot minute and came out with some of the best material of his career with 2008's "Paper Trail." Lil' Wayne, the so-called hottest rapper alive, is getting ready to head back to slammer himself after pleading guilty to a weapons possession charge in October. So why shouldn't Gucc...

Hubba, hubba. Beyonce and Lady Gaga are serving it up somethin' serious in the video for their earth-shattering collabo "Video Phone." The stans of both Camp Gaga and Camp Beyonce have already declared this video a defining moment in pop history. It certainly blows Britney Spears and Madonna's awful "Me Against the Music" video out of the water.But make no mistake, while Lady Gaga is quite poss...
Photo courtesy of Daily MailLa Roux, front woman's Elly Jackson's stage name and persona, looks about as friendly and inviting as a couch made of cactus in most photos. Her eyes are usually disinterested slits of icy cool and her posture says she is not that into you. But La Roux, Elly says in an interview with the Daily Mail, is just an exaggerated character she's created and not indicative of...
The road to redemption is often a long, winding, unpredictable road that leads the condemned through a journey of reflection and maturity. Chris Brown is throwing up all the "I'M CHANGING, Y'ALL" signals, repeating in all of his televised interviews, "I'm sorry. I know what I did was wrong." The "Crawl" video and song appear to be yet another white flag that Chris is raising to the court of pub...
If you want to put some heat on the dance floor, who better to employ than Ms. Get Me Bodied, Beyonce Knowles? On U.C.B.'s big boy debut "Pat Your Weave/Sweatin' Out Weave," Beyonce's line from "Get Me Bodied" is looped into the organic, foot-stomping go-go rhythm: "Pat your weave ladies, pat-pat-pat your weave ladies, watch him while he check up on it." Wale, being D.C.'s hometown hero, ser...
If there was any doubt that Rihanna would rise from the violent assault she faced at the hands of Chris Brown as a changed woman, the video for "Russian Roulette" should eviscerate all doubt. "Russian Roulette" finds Rihanna face-to-face with her lover and a gun, trying to figure out where she'll draw the strength to pull the trigger and place her bet. The video opens with Rihanna held in capti...
Photos by PR Photos The two leading ladies of pop music have combined forces to take over the world, and after listening to both "Video Phone (Extended Mix)" and "Telephone," it's clear that Lady Gaga and Beyonce are taking no prisoners. The remix to Beyonce's "Video Phone" had a bit of a false start, with a ballyhooed music video premiere that was aborted, leaving many Gaga and Beyonce fans h..
Forgive Amerie, father, for she knows not what she does. Amerie, who is NOT having the best week ever since news broke that her new album sold a paltry 12,000 copies its first week, was blessed with the opportunity to perform on Jimmy Kimmel's late night talk show last night. Perhaps in an attempt to borrow some of Lady Gaga's aura of success, Amerie decided to incorporate blonde wigs into her ...
If Kanye ever had any plans on say, performing a countrified rendition of "Heartless" with Tim McGraw (a la Nelly) at the Country Music Awards, he can forget it. Country music is not that into Kanye at the moment. They're still reeling from RUDENESS of the mic snatch stunt he pulled on Kanye at the VMAs. Some old-timer named Little Jimmy Dickens got onstage during the CMAs (essentially an ext..
This is not a game for Lady Gaga. The breakout star of 2009 is taking her role as an art-pop entertainer oh so seriously and she's making the rest of these chicks look bad. Every piece of her performance goes the extra mile. Especially her wardrobe. In the "Bad Romance" video alone, Gaga dons an astonishing 10 outfits in the five minutes that she crawls, thrashes and prances her way through ...
For all those who believe that Rihanna's "Russian Roulette" is a sign of her covenant with the devil, ease up. It's just a metaphor. The singer sat down and broke down exactly what the song meant for her."It was about being in a relationship and being afraid of getting hurt in the end," said Rihanna. "Which is kind of the same feeling you go through playing the game of Russian Roulette. You kno...
Does this video go into the Bitchassness files? While riling up the crowd during Obie of Motion Entertainment's party in NYC, Diddy found himself a little exposed. The mogul was hooting and hollering and gettin' his jig in celebration of his 40 years of life, baby mamas and sampling, but it appears that his pants couldn't keep up with the beat cause they dropped down to the flo', exposing Did..
The brave, bold step that Rihanna took last Friday by deciding to speak honestly, openly and frankly about the vicious assault she suffered at the hands of her ex-lover, Chris Brown, has paid off in multiples.1) It has given a voice to an issue that hasn't always been front page news: Teenage dating violence. When one thinks of domestic violence, it's usually in the context of a husband beating...
Things just ain't the same for Robin Thicke. The blue-eyed soul singer who won over fans with his falsetto and tender lyrics finds himself backed into a corner after the modest performance of 2008's "Something Else." The lead single for that project, "Magic," puttered out at #59 on the Billboard Hot 100 and its follow-up single, the piano-driven soul ballad "The Sweetest Love" failed to brea..
It's been a long time coming but the stars of the Chrianna soap opera are finally starting to pull back the covers on that nightmarish February night in which Chris Brown brutally assaulted his then-girlfriend, pop star Rihanna.Rihanna, being the victim, got the all-star treatment, sitting down for a nearly hour-long segment of ABC's "20/20" with Diane Sawyer.
