Okay so by no we are not shocked at random celebrities kissing on stage as part of a performance, but this right here was hilarious and I bet a bit embarrass for Madonna ( who struggles to stay relevant) . According to sources Drake had a performance at Coachella Music festival in California and he and Madonna planned on doing a song together and surprising the audience, but Madonna took it a step further surprising drake with a long steamy awkward kiss that Drake was not prepared for apparently he made the worst face possible when receiving a kiss. (I got you, the video is below)
Congratulations are in order for Tina Knowles Beyonce's mom who got itched this weekend to Richard Lawson an actor. the wedding took place in California aboard a yacht filled with family and friends, Congratulations to her and he new husband. Question how does Mathew feel about this? Anyway they look happy.
Those heels tho!! Bey stepped out this week end in NYC and really she is killing this out fit.
Rihanna did her this this weekend at the March Madness in Indiana
Ciara is looking so so sophisticated these days, I luv it she was at the NBC Universal event in California.
Kelly Rowland was in Atlanta at the Gold Room this weekend, she looks fab.
Teraji P Henson "Cookie" was seen out at the Samsung Galaxy S6 launch.
Amber Rose and He MANager Nick Cannon, Lol, they say there are just friends which might be true, Amber professed her love for her estranges husband Wiz Khalifah on Instagram this weekend, she is still in love with him.
Ludacris and his pregnant Fiance was seen at the Fast and Furious event in LA.
New couple alert Sevyn Streeter and BOB along side Wiz Khalifah was seen out at the Fast and Furious event. they look cute together and Wiz need to get back with Amber (I'm just saying).
Apparently looks can be deceiving according to many people in the industry. I have been hearing different stories about drake and his personality and recently he as been catching all types of shade and blows (pun intended) he has had an altercation with Chris Brown ( supposedly over Rihanna) and had bottles thrown at him in clubs, then he got slapped (allegedly) by Diddy for taking a song and now his own label mate is throwing shade at his saying "he is not genuine" according to Tyga of Young Money in an interview on "The Breakfast Club " this week. Question whats really good with the Canadian actor turned rapper who's lyrics and songs we all love. Maybe he needs some friends or a hug IDK but if you need me I'm here for ya Drake (sike) but anyway try to be real wit people and stop stealing things (songs, girls etc) just saying its not a good look homie, but we love you tho.
Lets start with Keith Urban, was he drunk or something this guy gets on stage stumbles around, not knowing where to look to present the next performer (wait isn't he on American idol, so he should be used to this) then the icing on the cake he announces the wrong name, now this is a guy he says he knows through the country music scene. question how you mess up his name? lay off the sauce Keith..
We all want Kanye to be great again, but that solo performance was not the business, to me it was super boring.
Now it has been about six years since Kanye performed at the Grammys and they let his a** back and he almost pulled a Kanye on Beck ( who won album of the year over Beyonce) well Lets just say this would have been ugly but before he went through with it he stopped his self from embarrassment. Bey and JayZ was looking like noooo don't. After the Grammys Kanye said in an interview, "Beck should give his award to Beyonce". Weigh in what do you think should Beyonce have gotten that award?
Pharell performance was weird, first he looked like a bell hop then the start of the performance was slow and sad but the song was "Happy" so it threw me off. I think he was trying to hard to make this song a production, just be glad you were able to come back with this pop song ok and sit down. I'm just saying...
Rihann, Kanye and Paul Mc Cartney gave a great performance of "Fourfive Seconds" was dope the song is everything, they did a great job.
Was it me or did the Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett performance was alittle off, it just didn't really gel to me. What do you all think?
I am so used to seeing Usher dancing around so to see him do a tribute to Stevie Wonder in a slow ballet was a bit painful to watch, to me his vocals was not all that, I'm just saying, why we had to be the victims of that.
One of the best performances was Katy Perry whose range was phenomenal, she just proved that she doesn't need gimmicks to stand out and make an impact she really has talent. I enjoyed her performance last night, great job.
Another great performance was Beyonce she really sang her heart out and did it in spectacular fashion.
All in all the Grammy Awards 2015 were more serious and conscious this year I am very proud of the artist who chose to use this platform to push a particular message, from domestic violence to God to the recent violence from the police. It is just a good look to see them being socially responsible when they can make a huge impact on others and society.
The baby girl of one of the greatest singers the world will ever see Bobbi Kristina according to reports was found face down in a bathtub in her home by her husband and was revived and rushed to the hospital in Atlanta where she remains in a medically induced coma, with what is described as diminished brain activity. This is truly sad, about three years ago on February 11th 2012 her mother Whitney Houston was found dead in her hotel room bathtub, she is the only child of the late singer. I really hope she is OK this is just not the way to deal with things, but I cant pass judgement on her or her situation only thing I ask is for God will to be done. The way the doctors are allegedly reporting on her status doesn't sound good at all even if she survives what kind of life will she have if she has brain damage, all around this is just sad, my prayers go out to her and her family.

One
of the most influential people in the music industry is the DJ, they control
the way music or records go viral. In Atlanta there is an awards show especially
dedicated to honor the DJ called “Salute The DJ Awards”, where the DJs can be
recognized and appreciated for all the work they do throughout the year. This event
is held at the Atrium event center in Atlanta Georgia a lot of up and coming
artist perform in front of the people who hold the key to their success the DJ’s.
Last year’s show Young Thug and Kcamp performed just to name a few and since
then their careers have sky rocketed. So you can imagine why the up and coming
artist clamor for a spot on the stage. This year’s show was a production hosted
by Shanod Johnson from HNIC entertainment, Crum from 94.5 with special guest
hosting from Lil Bankhead of 94.5 and DJ Holiday with this line up the bar was
set. As the night progressed special guest of DJ Holiday came and blessed the
stage the crowd was filled with excitement as T.I. and Hustle Gang emerged from
the back.

Queendom Productions.
2014 it was the end
of flexing on many levels, we all grew tired of the flex and the fact that one
of the hottest songs on that year titled “No Flex Zone” topped the charts definitely
solidified it. But then of course maybe it had to do with the fact that the
song was a banger with a track produced by Mike Will Made It one of the dopest
producers in the industry and the fact that the rap duo Rae Sremmurd ( Swae Lee
and Slim Jimmy) killed it or the remix with Nicki Minaj. All of the above in my
opinion made this song a hit, but not a one hit wonder type of thing for the
duo, they released another banger “ I Aint Got No Type” which is a club anthem these
days, another track produced by Mike Will Made It. Wait they have an album “Sremmlife”
that was just released and executive produced by the super producer as well,
sounds like a recipe for success. I got a chance to catch up with Rae Sremmurd
at DBS Sounds in Atlanta the day their album was released for an in store
signing. The Duo was running a little late but that did not sway their fans who
stayed patiently waiting to meet their favorite rappers, as time went by Rae Sremmurd emerged from the back and
entered the room. They immediately began to sign autographs and take pictures
with their waiting fans, to give a visual the duo didn’t even sit down, their
album was playing on the speakers and they moved along with the beats all while
conversing with fans. After the frenzy died down Rae Sremmurd and their entourage
( which included Mike will Made It)came into the back room of the store where
the media waited for interviews, during one of the interviews Swae Lee took off
his timberland boots wrote on them customizing his shoes this showed the laid
back side to them. I have to say that they were really down to earth no ego involved
just genuinely cool people.
QN: What can
people expect from this album?
Swae Lee: Fun,
they can play it and just turn up
Slim Jimmy: They
can listen to it and have a good time.
QN: Coming from
Mississippi which is a tough market to come from what advice would you give
other rappers trying to make it from that area?
Swae Lee:Be different if you hear someone rapping a
certain way don’t do the same thing switch it up and have a different sound, so
you stand out.
Slim Jimmy:Move get out of there, move to another city
QN:Where should they move to?
Slim Jimmy:Atlanta, this the best place.
If I was to give a description of the Rae Sremmurd I would definably
say they have the energy of a kooler version of Kris kross. Any way make sure
you get the album “Sremmlife “ for their
first album it is definitely a great one, feel good, have a good time vibe.
