Trey Songz Smacks His Bitch Up

Daily Roundup: Rapper Timbaland once contemplated retiring. I truly don't know what it is with the rappers always contemplating retiring. Anyway his next cd is slated to be released November 4, 2008! If you think the last cd was hot on guest appearances get a load of the guest appearances on the upcoming untitled set. The guests include: Cher,Madonna, Dido, Mary J. Blige, Linkin Park, Celine Dion, Christina Aguilera, Gwen Stefani, and Akon. Wow! Talk about star power! We will have to see if and how Timbaland pulls this one off.

Trey Songz smacks his bitch up during a recent concert where a concert goer threw ice at the singer. Obviously upset and unmoved by the silly gesture, Trey stopped the music and nosedived in the the crowd. Once Trey and security dived in the crowd, the concert goers soon went into a frenzy as everyone watched up close, from afar, or just left altogether. I wish people would stop doing things like that to test these artists.

An arrest warrant will be issued for Yung Joc as he failed to show up in court following his Dec 23rd arrest on carrying a concealed weapon. Joc claims he was unaware of a gun being in his luggage. His lawyer also says Joc missed the court date because he had a personal and family obligation. The judge was apparently unmoved so has doubled his bond from $50,000 (after his release) to $100,000.

Mary J. Blige has reason to celebrate. Her latest album, "Growing Pains" lands at #2 this week with an estimated 640,000 copies sold in the first week. Congrats to Mary J! The official numbers will be out later today.
