New Orleans Saints Are Super Bowl XLIV Champions

Micki B — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 04:17:54 +0000

The Saints did what the people of Louisiana knew they could do, take the Super Bowl.

Admittedly the first quarter had me worried, but out of nowhere these guys turned it around and made this a sweet victory.

This is the first Superbowl win for the New Orleans Saints.

Congratulations!

Superbowl XLIV Commercials + Jay Z + Beyonce + T-Pain

Micki B — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 03:55:42 +0000

This year the Superbowl commercials were hilarious and some were simply filling a space. Here are a couple of highlights from tonight (Feb. 7).

Jay Z intro to the CBS Superbowl show was his “Posthumous Zone” version of his hit single “Run This Town”.

And Beyonce had a small spot in Vizio’s million dollar commercial.

Auto-tune King, T-Pain had a spot in a commercial which seem to spotlight the autotune. I really did not get this commercial.

Jill Scott Sued By Hidden Beach

Micki B — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 00:00:04 +0000

Songstress, Jill Scott has been slapped with a lawsuit from her former record label, Hidden Beach after she suddenly part ways with the company.

Hidden Beach Records filed this lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court on February 3. In court documents, there are claims Scott was obligated to a six album contract, however she has only successfully delivered three album.

“Hidden Beach is shocked by her decision not only because Scott has apparently chosen to leave the Hidden Beach family,” the complaint reads, “but also because Scott is contractually required to deliver three more albums to Hidden Beach.” [Billboard]

Potentially, Scott could owe Hidden Beach Records millions of dollars in damages.

Hidden Beach Records founder, Steve McKeever, greatly contributed to Jill Scott’s success in her career and reveals he is shocked by Scott leaving and does regret that the lawsuit had to be filed.

The label is seeking an unspecified amount in damages in connection to the breach of contract.

Since this news broke last week, a statement was issued to Billboard:

A representative for Jill Scott e-mailed this statement to Billboard. “The lawsuit filed on February 3, 2010 by Hidden Beach Recordings against Jill Scott has no legal merit and misrepresents the history of Ms. Scott’s relationship with the label. Jill Scott has the legal right to terminate her recording contract with Hidden Beach Recordings under California’s 7-year rule, where she had been a recording artist for more than 10 years. During her time at Hidden Beach Recordings, she released several highly successful albums. At this time, with many creative projects in the works which include music, film and television roles and product development, Ms. Scott looks forward to continuing to further her artistry and building the Jill Scott brand in other creative environments.”

New music video, “Independent Chick” from Houston’s own Candi Redd featuring Rasheeda and Candi (of Real Housewives of Atlanta). This video was directed by Mr. Boomtown and included cameos from Young Problemz, Bun B, Jus Brittany and I thought I saw Nnette (Radio Personality) from 97.9 the Box.
