Happy Birthday Whitney Houston!!!.... The late and legendary "Whitney Houston" Would Have Been 49 Years Old Today!!!!

August 9, 1963 – February 11, 2012 -- The late and legendary Whitney Houston would have been 49 years old and well on her way to reviving her career. Losing Whitney was a devastating blow that saddened us all. Even with her troubled life, she was still heavily regarded as, “The Voice.”

At the time of Whitney’s untimely death, she was in the midst of strengthening her vocals. Clearly Houston was involved in the remake of the Motown-inspired flick, “Sparkle” and lit up the silver screen.

We will get to see the “I Will Always Love You” singer in her last role when “Sparkle” comes out on August 17th.

Timbaland Not Happy With Drake Producing Aaliyah’s Album

Recent news broke that Drake would be involved in the posthumous record from Aaliyah and there is one producer who is not too happy with this news.

Timbaland feels a bit confused as to why he has not been asked to be a part of the projectand is also wondering why he was never told this project was going to take place from the get go.

Drake is set to executive produce a posthumous album from the late Aaliyah. But,Timbaland had a few thoughts about the whole situation, in a recent interview with Power 105.1′s The Breakfast Club.

We all know how close Timbaland was to Aaliyah so it comes as no surprise that he was not too happy with the news of Drake’s involvement on the record. Timbo thinks that if Drake wants to move forward with the Aaliyah record, then out of respect he needs to get him and Missy Elliott involved, as they were two of Aaliyah’s most frequent collaborators.

“I know they trying to drop some Aaliyah records, but if [Drake] do it, it should be with me and him, and Missy,” he said.

“I don’t know what’s going on. The proper way to do that would be for me, him and Missy to be all on the record. For it to be on his record, that would not be right.”

Drake is set to debut his single with the late singer at the OVO Festival this weekend in Toronto.

                                

Eminem Hits The Studio With Lady Gaga, What!?

Fans were recently surprised when news of Lady Gaga and Kendrick Lamar hit the web, but fans will be left speechless once they learn who else she has hit the studio with.

Hip Hops most exciting lyricist, Eminem has revealed that he has already collaborated with Gaga and will be releasing the song on his new upcoming album.

Lady Gaga also posted a TwitPic of herself with new rapper Kendrick Lamar in the studio together. But I think people are actually shocked to learn that she will be featured in Eminem new song, titled ‘Street Lights’.

Eminem spoke with MTV RapFix on the subject, “Yeah, I got this crazy record with Gaga and Kendrick for the upcoming LP. Its called ‘Street Lights’, and its just a real upbeat record.”

The song will actually be on  Em’s next album, rather than the ARTPOP album Lady Gaga announced a couple of days back. The single will be released “after Slaughterhouse’salbum”, who is part of Shady 2.0.

funny thing about this whole ordeal is that Eminem once called Gaga “a male lady” on  one of his old tracks “A Kiss” from his collaboration with Royce Da 5’9′ as Bad Meets Evil. I must be the first to admit I never saw this one coming!

Dr. Dre Closes Deal With FX For New Show

Dr. Dre and FX have sealed the deal as it is reported that Dre will co-executive produce a TV show that focuses on the music industry and crime business.

After what seemed like “secret” negotiations Dre has announced that he has sold a script to FX for an upcoming one-hour music/crime drama.

Deadline revealed that, Sidney Quashie penned the script for the show, which “explores present day Los Angeles through the lenses of the music business and the crime business.” Ther are very few details about the show, but they will be revealed in due time.

Dre has long been promising a new album that has quickly gained mythical status. However, the doc is still getting his money with headphones and other ventures, so many know by know that he is in no rush to complete the album as money is not an issue. Dre will executive produce the show alongside Daniel Schnider, Brad Bertner is set to co-executive produce.

Dre launched Crucial Films in 2007 at New Line Cinema with video director Phillip Atwell.

Ice Cube Talks New Album & 'Last Friday' Movie

Ice Cube who was performing live from Irving Plaza in NYC, speaks on his new album 'Everything's Corrupt,' his upcoming movie 'Last Friday,' and the new west coast movement. 

Ice Cube has been out of the music game for a while bu that does not mean he isn’t hard at work. The OG rapper claims that the new album he is putting together will appease many fans as it is “Hip Hop for the soul.”

In a recent interview with Red Bull USA, Ice Cube said that his new LP will be “Hip Hop for the soul,” he made it a point to explain that he’s focusing on more than just rhyming and instead making an album with actual meaning.

“I’m pretty deep into it, I’m about 65 percent finished with it. It’ll be out next year, you know, and it’s hardcore Hip Hop,” he said.

“It’s street knowledge, it’s talking about what’s going on in the hood, but it’s talking about what’s going on in the political arena. It’s what I always try to give. Much more than just rhyming. Mostly, it’s Hip Hop for the soul. That’s what I’m trying to deliver.”

Ice Cube also touched base on his upcoming Friday film, saying that the script is very close to being done.

“The script is almost finished, I got a meeting with New Line on Monday or Tuesday, to talk about the next step,” he said.

“You gotta get that script tight before you can take the next step. It’s beautiful because the West Coast, we’ve always been trying to prove ourselves to the Hip Hop nation, that we was much more than bitches, hoes, gangstas, guns… We’ve been trying to show that we’re very creative on the West Coast, but we got caught in a style that worked, a formula that worked, and it kind of got oversaturated in a way. But the dudes on the West are showing how creative they are. It’s good that the hip Hop community is starting to acknowledge it and getting their shine, and that’s a beautiful thing.”

Ice cube is a highly respected veteran of the rap game, but more than anything he is one of the few artists that has been able to have a successful transition into acting.

“Banned from NBA” – APL and Adam Goldston

Adam Goldston is what it means to be a true golden boy. He is an athlete, inventor, innovator and a role model. Goldston and his twin brother Ryan reside in Los Angels California and double handedly built a shoe empire. These two twins were walk ons to their college basketball team and developed a passion and drive to change the game. In 2009 they held onto their passion and love of basketball to create Athletic Propulsion Labs, better known as APL. Located in Los Angeles California.

With APL they created a shoe called the Concept 1 which was designed to instantly increase one’s vertical leap. As amazing as this shoe was, after much debate the NBA decided to ban all players in the league from wearing their shoes. This inspired Adam and his brother to use what they could have seen as a problem, as advertisement. They took this potential negative and turned it into a positive. The twins used “Banned by the NBA” in their product advertising andpromotion. This slogan now graces APL’s homepage. “In terms of marketing, this is probably the greatest thing that could have happened to our company, because it basically blew us up overnight,” said Adam. Since the Concept 1, they have  released the Concours (their second shoe), and the highly anticipated sequel to the Concept 1, the Concept 2.

Over the past few years APL has blown up. The company’s value increases daily and this year has been full of even moresuccess for the Goldston twins. Adam and his brother Ryan were named to the Empact100 list of America’s top young entrepreneurs. With this came the opportunity to be recognized at the White House in Washington D.C. on November 17, 2011. The twins were also given the opportunity to have a pop up shop at Saks Fifth Avenue this winter that according to Adam was “A success and a great opportunity to display our brand in front of a new demographic.” Adam is very private about things that go on behind the scenes of his business ventures.

Although Adam is a very busy businessman, he finds time to workout every day. Each day is different and some days he trains for a minimum of 50 minutes while others it can be up to 2.5 hours. He works hard no matter how long he is in the gym and hardly ever misses a day. A typical workout for Adam consists of targeting a specific muscle group, never a full body workout.

He keeps it healthy with his diet too. Some days he eats anywhere from 18-20 egg whites! Yes 20! And in a typical day he eats lean meats consisting of chicken, turkey, bison, and steak. He also eats his vegetables, grazing on sweet potato, lettuce, corn, quinoa, and avocado. He enjoys his cheese, wheat bread and corn bread while also supplementing his meals with protein powder.

We’ve got to give these guys props for creating a great shoe and living healthy active lifestyles!

Was Manny Pacquiao Robbed Of His Title Last Night?

Last night undisputed boxing champ Manny Pacquiao took the ring against Timothy Bradley. A good show was indeed expected, but the outcome of the fight was not.

The scorecards of the judges simply weren't matching up to the effort that Pacquiao was putting in inside the ring. 

PHOTOS: Manny Pacquiao, Practice What You Preach!

After 12 intense rounds, judges announced Timothy Bradley as the champion, trumping Pacquio's 7-year run as an undefeated fighter. The announcement erupted the crowd at the MGM Grand arena into a fury of boos and visually stunned Pacquiao.

The fight promoter Bob Arum said there would be a November rematch, though he blasted the way the decision went down.

"I've never been as ashamed of the sport of boxing as I am tonight," said Arum, who handles both fighters.

Bradley came on strong in the later rounds, winning five of the last six rounds on two scorecards and four on the third. He won 115-113 on two scorecards, while losing on the third by the same margin. The Associated Press had Pacquiao winning 117-111.

"I did my best," Pacquiao said. "I guess my best wasn't good enough."

Shortly after the announcement, fans of Pacquio took to social networking sites to blast the decision claiming that the champ was robbed of his belt. 

As for his opponent, Bradley spoke after the fight saying: "I thought I won the fight," Bradley said. "I didn't think he was as good as everyone says he was. I didn't feel his power."

But Bob Arum claims that mid-fight, Bradley spoke differently saying:” I went over to Bradley before the decision and he said, `I tried hard but I couldn't beat the guy.'"

Oh the politics of boxing. Do you believe Bradley deserved the belt? Sound off in the comments section below.

He Said What? Chris Rock Calls Obama...

Comedians say the darndest things, which is why Chris Rock is in some hot water after calling Barack Obama our “Zebra President.”

STORY: l'll Pay More Taxes! Chris Rock: "I'm Going To Lose The Money No Matter What" 

Rock, out promoting his new film Madagascar 3, in which he serves as the voice to an animated zebra, said that the similarity between the cross-colored animal and the President was for obvious reasons: they are both half black and half white.

Rock said: 

"I wanted to be the lion, you know, king of the jungle and all that, but that didn’t work out…Snake is always good. You know, scare people. Ssss. But I’ll take the zebra.

In honor of our zebra president. Black and white, white and black.…I love our president, but he’s black and white. He appeals to all. And that’s what I am going for."

Rock then said that most African Americans ignore Obama’s whiteness, and consider him to be a black president. 

Rock has a point. Obama is referred to as the black President, but we don’t think Chris’ joke was that bad.
