Mama Whit is set to headline the Tobago Jazz Festival April 25th-27th in Plymouth, Tobago. She’ll be performing alongside Diana Ross, Rod Stewart and Shakira as headliners. Smokey Robinson, Peabo Bryson, James Ingram, En Vogue, and Steel Pulse are also scheduled to partake in the festivities.
So here’s a leaked track from Trina called “Rest of Them” and it’s a diss song for her ex Lil Wayne. Chick is milking that “relationship” for all it’s worth. Do you boo.

T.I. is expected to enter a guilty plea at 1:30p today at the Atlanta District Courthouse. Accoding to Billboard:
The 27-year-old artist, whose real name is Clifford Harris, was expected to be sentenced to 1,500 hours of community service talking to youth groups around the country, followed by about 12 months in prison, according to two people familiar with the negotiations who spoke on condition of anonymity because the plea deal had not been finalized yet Thursday morning.
Good luck with that T.I.P.
Celebs came out to R&B Live Hollywood last night:

Where have YOU been Heavy D?

Shaun Robinson made an appearance.
Brian McKnight and Eric Benet brought their boos:

Nothing surprising there.
MC Lyte made an appearance:

Other celebs hit up the Behind The Lens event in NY last night:

Rick Fox and Elise Neal were there.


Fab look.

Damn John Singleton.


Rosie Perez and Spike Lee were there.

Soledad O’Brien was there.

And Vanessa Williams rocked a scarf dress that honestly looked like a knock off LV from Canal St. I’m just sayin’…

eric benet has some issues. he should have stayed with halle, instead of pickin up a carbon copy at wal-mart. that ish ain’t cute. besides, is she THAT desperate. what in the heck has beNAYNAY been doing anyways?? why is even at this event? who gave him a ticket?

Vanessa must be broke to wear that beauty supply outfit. If T.I. goes to jail one more time than he ought to be committed to the crazy house.

_____________________________________________________________
No offense but thos Jazz fests are for struggling artists, has beens, or the legends….so since Whit is a legend I’ll let it pass but Whit is about to do a major comeback so I don’t think she should be at this jazz fest…give her about 10-15 more years. Anyway it is a nice lineup of artist though….
_______________________________________________________________
Rick Fox is a tad too pretty for me but I’m feeling his style. Who is he dating now? I heard he was seeing some chick…

MC Lyte is looking a little roughneck-ish for me….the boots …the bunched up jeans…make-up & hair…usually Lyte looks good but not in that pic.

I’ma leave Trina alone but we only have so many female rappers & this is what we have to work with. I thought Remy was going to hold us down but she trigga happy, Lil Kim don’t know if she want to be black, white or chinese.

They believe that being the girl is now older and has moved on it would not be a wise idea. Without the tape you don’t have a trial. Just our court system keeping a piece of R. Kelly’s money for their payroll.
