Although he was never signed to the house that Russell and Rubin built, Slim Shady still is fittingly payin’ tribute in VH1’s upcoming tribute to Def Jam Records. Em joins other confirmed guests like Mary J. Blige, DMX and Public Enemy. Get the feeling “Jason from Miami” is gonna do an Uncle L tune? Hmm. Show airs Oct. 13. Score another one for Video Hits One.

alt

With all due respect to Dwayne and Curtis, this is the Behind The Music special I can’t wait to see. Mr. Brown!

“After being kicked out of New Edition and independently establishing himself as the undisputed  “King of R&B,” Bobby spun himself into a fast life of drugs and women. Brown eventually married American Pop Princess, Whitney Houston and after an 11-year publically turbulent marriage the two divorced. Bobby Brown relays his life in the spotlight and all of the hardships and glories that he’s faced as one of the most controversial entertainers in R&B,” VH1 wrote in a release describing the forthcoming episode. Network sources say the forthcoming episode, documenting Brown’s career, both past and present, will air September 24.

Like I said, I’m there. Might need a Kleenex. Fuckin’ sad tragic tale.

Surrounded by his Triple C cohorts, Ross commends Marshall for his verse on “Forever.” He still wants to battle him, but then goes onto say, “He might want to do a record with me.” Don’t count on it.

“Yuuup!”

You can debate hottest MC all day, but you gotta admit this Songz kid clearly is the hottest R&B dude in the game. Here he is on the BET couch with Rocsi and some Terrence J stand-in and surprise guest, Ironside I mean, Drake. Did he say Young Money/Cash Money/Universal? Ha! Sylvia wins. Thank Me Later, V-Day 2010? Hmm. I say April.

Kanye West’s Bare Chested French Mag Cover

How could he be so topless? Seriously, it’s too early for this one. Never heard of Liberation Next, but they got Mr. West on the cover of their second anniversary issue. I’m scared to think what the photos will look like inside. Call me crazy but I rather focus on Rih-Rih’s chi chi’s instead. Ha!
