Preview Ray J's For The Love Of Ray J 2!

There were rumors the show was coming back but of course they were denied early on. Now come November 2(if I'm not mistaken), Ray J returns on his quest for love and sex. Peep it out!



Music Biz:
Melanie Fiona Talks Debut Album!

Melanie Fiona's debut has been a long time coming. After multiple delays, an internet leak this past summer and an early (Oct. 20) iTunes digital release Fiona's debut album, "The Bridge," will finally be available on Nov. 20 on Title 9/SRC/Universal Motown. Now, the Guayanese-born, Canadian-raised singer/songwriter is ready to flood the airwaves with as "many singles as we can."

"My album's been ready since 2008 -- over a year now -- and although I'm not the first or the last artist to experience push-backs, it's definitely a test to see who is in it for the long run," Fiona tells Billboard.com, admitting she was nervous about losing momentum. "The type of music I make doesn't fit the mold of pop or R&B, and sometimes it takes radio a bit longer to catch up. But now that the connection is there and things are coming together, I'm ready to release as many singles as we can."

According to Fiona, the next single might be the very pertinent "Ay Yo," with lyrics like, "I don't do this for the glory, or for what people might say / I'm gonna do this my own way, starting today," over horns and simplistic guitar strings.
Like everyone else, I too like "It Kills Me" and I heard previews of the "The Bridge" and a lot of the other songs sound dissimilar to this one.

Mathew Knowles Plotting Against LeToya?
A source in the Knowles camp tells us that Mathew truly despises Letoya Luckett and has been using payola to pay off DJ’s at radio stations not to play Letoya’s music. Letoya’s new single “Regret” doesn’t get any bigger than it already is. Our source says that Mathew thinks Letoya’s success will overshadow Beyonce’s if Letoya’s music gets as much airplay exposure as Beyonce’s.

We also learned that Beyonce is aware of what’s going on but won’t say anything to stop her dad. Apparently, she trusts Matthew and what he’s doing. Bossip researched and found out that Letoya’s single is in the top 5 spot on Urban radio charts, showing that the song has the potential to be played at the top urban radio stations in heavy rotation, yet it’s not.

Hmmm… we wonder why. We hear that Matthew is covering up the payola expense to pay off radio stations by saying the money is being used to go and review Beyonce’s tour shows at various venues. We hear he hasn’t had trouble with east coast stations because of their affiliations with Jay-Z, but the west coast stations haven’t been as easy.

As if this wasn’t enough, our source tells us this is only the tip of the iceberg and Matthew has more up his sleeves. Such a shame, Letoya didn’t even bad mouth Matthew when we chopped it up with her a couple of months ago
Oh boy. Mathew Knowles is up to it again huh? Well could be true, could be not. Also Capitol[Records] hasn't exactly been supporting LeToya themselves even though "Regret" is doing really well on radio. It seems like the song's success would put some renewed interest in not only LeToya but her album.
