  • Is Janet Jackson leaving Jimmy & Terry out of her next album project? Is Janet Jackson familiar with Janet Jackson's 20YO? Can someone please cop that for her? [SOHH Soulful]
  • Kanye West and Takashi Murakami are teaming up to design jewelry for people that are offensively rich and don't mind colorful, arrogant teddy bears dressed as Jesus. [Starpulse]
  • Trading Tapes asks "Why the Soul Music Drought In '07?". Well, mostly because the last couple of weeks didn't happen, obvs. [Trading Tapes]
  • Robin Thicke is a Justin clone? George Michael is the original blue-eyed soulster? There's powerful heresy and CRACK COCAINE at work. [Playback]
  • "I had to fire everybody, not because they were bad people but because I felt that they were pushing me into directions that were not really becoming of me. I can see the person I want to be, and I was being diverted from that vision of myself." Lenny Kravitz's idea of a Love Revolution is making sure the line at the unemployment office wraps around the building. [MTV]
  • Yay! Cool/Nerdy stuff! Felicia Pride interviews MF Grimm about his new graphic novel. [FP]
  • Toni Braxton's birthday dinner was nearly 3 G's. If I was Toni Braxton, I probably would've skipped out on the bill. Wait, if Toni Braxton skipped out on that bill, would that be believable? No, of course not! [TMZ]
  • Hip-Hop isn't ALL bad. Common launches the Common Ground Foundation for the children. [Myspace]

Comments

I'm not too worried about Janet moving on from Jam/Lewis. I love them, but their formula is stale and she needs to move forward. I liked 20 YO ... so we'll see what happens. Regardless I'll be getting whatever she puts out.
