I'm eager to know how "E=MC2" will stack up against 2005's "The Emancipation Of Mimi" which was a really great album. First single, "Touch My Body" has been received very well and is performing very well on the Billboard charts!
Singer Keyshia Cole is riding high with current hit single, "I Remember" which has topped the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Tracks chart for 4 weeks! In addition to that the songstress has begun work on a new album to be released this Christmas. Meanwhile Keyshia recently just shot 4 videos, one for her 4th single off the platinum, "Just Like You" album, "Heaven Sent". Next Keyshia hooked up with rap group C-Side on their debut single, "Boyfriend/Girlfriend" (which is one of my favorite songs right now). Then Keyshia linked up with Miami rapstress Trina for her new single, "I Got A Thing For You". Finally Keyshia appeared along R&B singer Jaheim for their collaboration, "I've Changed" (which is another favorite song of mine).
Miami rapper Rick Ross has topped the Billboard 200 Album Chart with his latest offering, "Trilla" selling 198K units. If I'm not mistaken this is the hugest first week sales for an album so far this year. This marks Ross' second album to go to #1 on the charts. There are not a lot of rappers who can do that especially these days. Next week pop group Danity Kane is poised to top the charts besting Ross' first-week sales with an estimated 250-275K units according to HitsDailyDouble.
Rapper Busta Rhymes sentenced to three years probation stemming from an assault case in 2006. The rapper is currently working on new album, "Back On My Bullshit" which will be released later this year.
Songwriter Sean "The Pen" Garrett who has written songs for Kelis and Destiny's Child will be releasing his debut album, "Turbo 919" on May 20th. The first single, "Grippin On The Bed" features Ludacris.
