I had a chance to catch up to this song bird this weekend in the Atlanta for her Album signing at DBS Sounds. Before I continue I have to give a big shout out to Bago and Mooch at DBS Sounds for always bring the Artist to the people. Anyway Dawns new album "GoldenHeart" is in stores now and it is great a new spin on R&B and the girl can sing, plus she is super kool and humble. You can also go to queenneeka facebook to see her interview.
The President of the United States Barack H Obama, History in the making...

Jay z and Beyonce have definitely arrived, they look great.

Congrats to Carmelo for his new project a Jordan Brand Shoe the M9, that's pretty dope, shout out to Melo and Wife for remaining focused during the ish storm of gossip.
First and foremost I want to congratulate Don Cheadle on his Golden globe Win for "House of Lies" one of the best shows on Showtime thus far. He does an awesome job as Marty Kahn so he definitely deserves this award.
First I want to give a shout out to the Fan Hitz team for putting together a great show. If your an up and coming artist and want to put you music out there to see if people like it our just to showcase your talent then log on to www.fanhitz.com.. Let me just say that this contest is a vital importance to the music game, there are alot of great artist out there that never get the opportunity to be heard and to have a web site such as www.fanhitz.com out there it bridges the gap for them to be heard. Also a big shout out to Krushmore Entertainment, for all your partying in Atlanta, visit www.krushmore.com.
Konvict muzics own Verse Simmonds came out to support the event, so shout out to him as well and to Prof Griff from Public Enemy. Not many artist have time to show support of give back to the new generation of musicians. Anyway on to my run down of the show and the winners.
Not everyone that came out had what it took, don't get me wrong in this setting not only do you have to have talent you have to have delivery with it and many fell short, I'm not gonna put anyone on blast though.
Last contest winner El Bells hit the stage to perform and as he did before he moved the crowd, so big ups to him, keep hustling your talent.
The winners of the Fan Hitz finale are Ant da man and Kenny Stone, they are college students that have a passion for entertainment, these two dudes hit the stage and rocked it with a catchy song and the hype to pull off the win, don't believe me check out the pictures of the crowd going bananas ( see below) You can get more info on them @antdamanlive on twitter, Ant da man fan page on facebook, and @truekennystone on twitter.
they won the $2500.00 cash prize and a press packet don't sleep peoples this contest pays off (literally)
COUNTRY GRAVY
Yes a female MC was in the contest and she was good to, "Country Gravy" is her name and she came in second runner up. When she stepped to the mic she spit a verse that was so hot she got the crowd hyped up before she even begun her song, which honestly was not as good as the first verse but it was good enough to get her to the second spot. You can find her at country gravy on Facebook fan page, @countrygravy404 on twitter.
NO WATER
The third place winners were "No Water" now I have to say despite a really raunchy looking side show from some crack head looking stripper ( which they didn't need) the rocked the crowd as well, there energy was on point and the audience soaked it all in and vibed with there performance. You find them on Facebook at no water productions.
Check out the exclusive interviews with the winner and runner up after the break
When it rains it pours they say, Carmelo was recently suspended after a supposed incident between him and Celtics player Kevin Garnett. I guess Carmelo wanted to put them paws on him for the game and disrespecting his wife. Allegedly the Kevin Garnett made comments to " His wife tasting like Honey Nut cheerios". IDk that sounds like grounds for a beat down, but hey the NBA didn't feel the same. The two teams have a rematch game in Boston in a couple weeks. To add to this drama the rumor mill is that Carmelo and his wife were going through a separation. My two cents I like them as a couple and she is in NY by her husbands side so that speaks numbers. Anyway leave a comment let me know your two cents.
The new season of " American Idol " is on the way and yes still after the whole Mariah and Nikki beef they still have to promote the show. This should be interesting, funny the guys seem to be kool with her, IDK Anyway are you all going to tune in, leave a comment let me know how you feel about it.
Now that TI is off papers he is hitting the ground running, he was at the premiere of "Gangster Squad" at the Graunams Chinese Theatre In Hollywood. I think they could have made an effort with their attire, I mead seriously Tiny could wear this grocery shopping and TI could wear this to the studio or trap. Just saying.
Meagan Good visits SiriusXM to promote her new project "Deception". Married life has made her look so mature.
NBA fav couple Gabrielle Union and Dwayne Wade were at LIV nightclub in Miami last night.
The man on the come up, Micheal Strahan seen here leaving the taping of " Late Night with David Letterman" this dude is doing his thing, a great morning show with Kelly and still working as a commentator for ESPN, engaged to Nicole Murphy and he looks better, seems like he is winning.
Jaime Fox was seen out promoting his new film "Django" in Rome, listen peoples I saw the movie and trust me this is one movie you do not want to miss, it was great the whole way through, Samuel Jackson's performance was outstanding as well asJaime's. If you saw the movie leave a comment on if you liked it or not.
Kerry Washington was also at the "Django" photo call in Rome, her acting skills are definitely on point these days from "Scandal" to now this movie. But really what is she wearing, that ish is not cute, please get a new stylist.
