This morning, Curt sat alongside author Robert Greene to promote his new book, The 50th Law on The Today Show. Kathie Lee and Hoda Kotb make this bromance seem unbearable.

I remember when MTV had their VMA details on lock and key. Well in today’s Twitter Nation that’s hard. First, news broke about Jay-Z and Alicia possibly closing the show with “Empire State of Mind,” now comes word that MJ’s baby sis is workin’ day and night to do her brother justice with an amazing performance. Can’t wait.

Sidebar: Can you believe the fucks at Viacom are frontin’ on Double R press credentials? I invented the 1515 Boys! Ha. Don’t make me take my shoe off.

Update: In related news, Fuck Boy Brown and MJB are part of overseas MJ tribute concert.

Last Friday, I caught up with engineer extraordinaire Gimel “Young Guru” Keaton at Roc The Mic studios. For nearly a decade, Guru’s added the finishing touches on all of The Roc’s releases. With Blueprint 3 in stores today, he spoke on the album’s delay and fine tuning it in the 50th state. More clips on the way.

Who can take Labor Day off when some new GFK pops up in your mailbox? Think this is the intro to Wizard Of Poetry. You smart dumb cats know Dennis Cole never needed an instrumental. Hey, it’s not too late to take this joint and add it in your BBQ mix. It’s smokier than your grill.
