Music Feed: 2010: A Look Back Part 2

All the juicy, headline grabbing news stories are here and the celebrities that stayed in the news all year round. Check it out!

Lawsuits:
  • Erykah Badu fined for appearing naked in video for "Window Seat".
  • Kelis collects spousal support from Nas after divorce.
  • T-Pain sued over not giving songwriting credit.
  • Method Man pleads guilty for tax evasion.
  • Drake sued by Playboy over "Best I Ever Had".
  • Fantasia is sued by married lover's wife!
  • Brandy sued by DJ.
  • Foxy Brown skips out on club performance.
  • Kelly Rowland owes back taxes.
Fantasia:
2010 was another unforgettable year for the former American Idol winner. Aside from releasing new music; she found herself in the center of a lawsuit against the wife of her married lover. In addition to that; Fantasia attempted suicide and was briefly hospitalized. She also admitted to becoming pregnant but aborting the child. Much of this drama would play out before our eyes on her VH1 reality TV show; "Fantasia: For Real".

Usher:

Shortly before the release of his "Raymond v. Raymond" album, Usher was robbed of a million dollars. Apparently the singer had a million dollars sitting in his car. If I'm not mistaken I believe the singer had some music stolen as well which explained for some of the early leaks. It seems as if with each album, Usher is part of some publicity stunt and it actually works to his advantage. Usher's "Raymond v. Raymond" featured an array of hit singles including; "Lil' Freak" featuring Nicki Minaj, "Hey Daddy(Daddy's Home)" featuring Plies, and "There Goes My Baby".

Ray J:
Ray J is not only a reality TV star via VH1's "Brandy & Ray J: A Family Business" but he is also always in the middle of some feud. Some of the former contestants of Ray J's "For The Love Of Ray J" called him "gay" and those rumors continued when Raz B leaked out that video phone conversation. Ray J was also accused of being in the center of the Lil' Kim and Nicki Minaj beef which he vehemently denied.

Rihanna:

Rihanna had another hit filled year with two albums, "Rated R" and this year's, "Loud". Her hit singles included; "Rude Boy", "Hard", "Only Girl(In The World)", and "What's My Name" featuring Drake. There were also a few down times where the star was briefly hospitalized after collapsing on stage.

T.I. & Tiny:
T.I. and Tiny finally got married among other things. They also got arrested for their drug bust. T.I. was in and out of jail all year and Tiny was defending him or on her own reality TV show; "Tiny & Toya. T.I. released his latest album, "No Mercy" to not much fanfare but decent numbers(160K). T.I. also missed out on the monster instrumental that serves Lil' Wayne on his newest song; "6'7'"(which I haven't heard yet but read plenty about). Tiny resurfaced on friend and former group member; Kandi's new album, "Kandi Koated" on the song "Superwoman".
