Kelly Rowland & Brandy spotted hanging out!

Wednesday 8/19/09 Kelly Rowland & Brandy Norwood were spotted shopping in the Los Angeles Beverly Hills area. They were seen in the MAC store where they had the entire store shut down to shop! Both ladies looked cute! The sad thing is the paparazzi didnt know that the young lady shopping with Brandy was infact Kelly Rowland from DESTINY'S CHILD!!!! I don't know whether to laugh or feel bad! In my own opinion Kelly is the bigger "celebrity" or atleast more current than Brandy but that may only be over in the UK....The paps waited for the ladies to exit the store so they can snap away and record videos. When they did all attention was given to Brandy. The only thing said to Kelly was, was she there to support Brandy!, infact on the youtube link the description says "Brandy and a friend go shopping..." Here is a photo and a video of the ladies in & exiting the MAC Boutique on Robertson Blvd.(click the link to see the video)

Im glad to see Kelly & Brandy are friends again! They used to hang out back in the day but the friendship ended a few years ago when Brandy told Kelly to let Mathew Knowles go as her manager, because his only interests were in his daughter Beyoncé. It seems as though the ladies have let the past go and have become friends again! Both are signed to new lables(Kelly as even let Mathew Knowles go!) and are working on new albums! Hopefully they will do a track together one day!

Melanie Fiona Energy Live Sessions

So Melanie Fiona is a new R&B singer from Toronto. She has a single on radio & tv called "Give It To Me Right". She is gearing up for the US release of her debut Album "The Bridge" which drops this tuesday! 08/18/2009. She did a performance at a unknown club in Zurich(Switzerland). Four songs are on the net check them out here:

Monday Morning:


It Kills Me:


Give It To Me Right:


Heartless(Kanye Cover)



Give It To Me Right Video:



WOW! Melanie did her thing on these performances! She can definitely SING I like how the 1st song started off slow and then picked up a little. Her style reminds me of Solange a little bit. She mixes modern R&B with old school motown. Her Heartless cover was nice I liked the Reggae feel she gave to it, then switched it over to hip hop with a dash of rock! She is SICK! The Bridge drops 08/18/2009 Grab a copy, I think this will be a hot one! Definitely expect a FULL review of it sometime this week.

Keri Hilson Wal-Mart Soundcheck

Keri Hilson did a interview & performance with Wal-Mart for their Soundcheck series a few months ago. Im guessing the videos have just surfaced because this is my first time hearing anything about them....you can check all video here:

Alienated:


Knock You Down:


Turnin' Me On:


Slow Dance:


Energy:


Interview:



I thought she did a great job on the performances! The best was Slow Dance(I am so pissed that it was cut off!) The interview was pretty cool. It allows you get a better feel for who Keri is and where she gets her inspiration from. Keri & I have the same fave songs from her cd! Rumor has it that Hilson's next single will be Slow Dance!! Im so excited and I hope it is true! Also it said that she is planning on re-releasing In A Perfect World... The current edition is instores NOW so if you haven't already PLEASE go and pick up a copy or two! It is definitely worth the money!!!!

New Beyoncé song!!

A New Beyoncé track called "Poison" has leaked. It appeared on DJ Haze's new mixtape called " Big R&B Ego". Im a HUGE Bee fan so ofcourse I LOVE the song take a listen here:

This song is AMAZING!!! She took it back to the "Dangerously In Love" days. the production, lyrical content, & vocals are all on point! I dont know why this song didnt make the IASF cd. Hopefully it will appear on the re-release due next year...

Flashback Joint

Junior M.A.F.I.A. Get Money:


I used to LOVE this song when I was a kid. And I recently fell back in love with it! Lil' Kim rocked this joint! Charli Baltimore looked cute in this video! I think its time for both ladies to make a comeback to the music scene!!

Charli Baltimore recently spoke with Vlad TV about not being in The "Notorious" movie & Lil Kim's actions at Biggie's Funeral:
