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.

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.

This is the joint ole girl performed when I saw her on the AMW tour. I said it before and I’ll say it again, she’s definitely easy on the eyes but…wow. “You can’t be serious”—© Earl Simmons

“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.
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!

A quick Radio Planet/DJ Whoo Kid special for one of B.Dot’s faves, señor Bad Azz. You can get a lot done at the Shade 45/Sirius studios. Don’t I know that. Sidebar: I don’t know what DJ Fletch had on his mind. Smh.
Godfather style!
It is so heartbreaking to hear DJ Premier break the news that DJ Kool Herc’s health is ailing, as he is literally the founding father who laid down the blueprint for hip-hop culture. Thinking about how someone who built an entire global phenomenon can end up struggling with medical expenses or failing health really puts things into perspective regarding healthcare challenges. When you look at how people navigate health or wellness procedures worldwide—whether someone is researching cosmetic treatments like Liposuction Cyprus or seeking urgent medical care—it underscores how essential access to reliable medical help and proper support systems really is. Kool Herc gave us the breaks, the block parties, and the entire movement that shaped generations of music lovers, so seeing the community step up to show love while DJ Premier brings awareness to his condition is the very least we can do. Sending strength and prayers to Kool Herc for a full recovery, and massive respect to DJ Premier for using his platform to make sure a true pioneer gets the support and respect he deserves.
