2ND CHANCE: Tinashe known for her hit 2 On is already at work on her sophomore album. Tinashe released her debut album Aquarius back in October. And why is she working on a new album so soon? My guess is because no one bought the first one. I'm not sure. What do you think? BLACK POWER: In much better news D' Angelo fans the wait may just be over as the reclusive singer is said to release a new album Black Messiah on December 15. A physical copy of the album has landed in stores in Brooklyn as have posters advertising the new album. D' Angelo's manager promised a new album this year and I'm guessing he was right on the money. Black Messiah is the first album from D' Angelo in 14 years. MUSIC BITS: Rihanna is not pregnant! Chris Brown and Karrueche are back together. Jay Z and Beyoncé and Justin Timberlake attended Taylor Swift's 25th birthday. Speaking of Taylor Swift, Aretha Franklin sang Happy Birthday to her at Billboard's Women In Music luncheon. Funny thing is a few weeks ago Aretha famously shaded Taylor when asked about her. Jeremih has finally been arrested at a Newark airport after he and his crew were throwing beer at a restaurant. And Keyshia Cole is also heading to jail for a DUI she didn't clear up 10 years ago. Keyshia announced she was going to jail a few days ago but didn't make mention as to why until now. Whew! That's a lot of news for a Saturday night don't you agree? If that's not enough B.O.B. started #eggplantfriday where he famously showed off what's below his waist via his social media page. The hashtag prompted a page and several other discoveries that will leave you watering at the mouth if that's your thing.
It's probably starting to look like a Ne-Yo fan site here with all the recent posts mentioning him; but I assure you it is not. The hype behind Ne-Yo's debut album; "In My Own Words" reached a fever pitch thanks to the debut single; "So Sick". The song was a huge success including its singles; "Sexy Love", "When Ur Mad" and more.
Ne-Yo definitely plays up on his buzz by writing and producing many of the tracks. This album would lead to Ne-Yo being a very sought after songwriter and producer. It is the album of his I favor the most. I think as he progressed as an artist; I somewhat lost interest.
