The Good News: Today, Good Morning America aired footage of Whitney Houston’s performance yesterday in Central Park. In front of 5,000 she ran through some oldies and goodies and even brought out her baritoned daughter, Lil Mama Bobbi Kristina to assist on “My Love Is Your Love.”
The Bad News: Today, Good Morning America aired footage of Whitney Houston’s performance yesterday in Central Park. And to be frank, she sounded like shit. According to the NY Daily News, before performing “Every Woman” she said “I’m so sorry. I did Oprah. I’ve been talking for so long. … I talked so much, my voice. I shouldn’t be talking. I should be singing.” Chaka Khan is probably somewhere pissed. I Look To You is in stores now.

The bridge is over, my dick! In an interview with Street Disciplez Radio, MC Shan takes a #1…and a #2 on Joe Budden. Around the 1:20 mark, he challenges Mr. Tahiry to a fair one.

But, that’s where it stops. 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.

All red everything?
Conversation probably went a lil’ something like this: “Check this out, Ms. Rhone, you know how it go, first you put me out, then you get my son. Belee Dat! 100.”

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.

It's pretty intense reading that Guru released a statement on his health while recovering. Hearing directly from a hip-hop icon after such a scary medical scare gives everyone a massive sigh of relief. You can tell he really values setting the record straight himself. It reminds me of how people want to look and feel their absolute best after going through tough times, whether that's overall wellness or even specific cosmetic refreshes like getting a Blepharoplasty Limassol routine done for a fresh look. Overall, seeing him send love to the fans shows his resilience, and we're all just hoping for a full, speedy recovery for the legend.
