Movie Review...(No Spoilers)

I was able to see the advance screening of this movie last night and I must say in one word:Amazing. Must see movie. Action packed. If you have blood pressure problems, make sure you take your pills with you because this movie will get it rising quick. Samuel L. Jackson plays his role to perfection. I love Kerry Washington and she definitely did her thing. Not gonna spoil it for anyone, but the movie hits theatres THIS Friday. Check it out. It has the DaveEmoney seal of approval ;)

In case you missed it...

R.Kelly basically incriminating himself last night...My favorite part of the interview: "So do you like teenage girls?" ...."By Teenage, what age are we talking about?" ....WOW...just a shame.

The "What In The World" Moment of the Day...

If you're a man, THIS is why you should go see JANET JACKSON when she comes to a city near you. DEAR LORD! That Jermaine Dupri is one lucky man...

John Legend (Feat. Kanye West) It's Over (Radio Rip)

Ginuwine-Please You (Produced By The Underdogs)

Ginuwine making a comeback too?? I hate that the TGT group fell through with Tyrese and Tank. What we REALLY need though is for G to get back making records with TIMBALAND! MAN I miss those days. This is a decent record but it's not the same. Let's see if he can regain the magic from the 90's....

Ludacris Co-Starring Sean Garrett & Chris Brown-I Know What Dem Girls Like

Luda's videos are always straight comedy and this one is no exception. I like it though. Chris brrreeeezzzzy did his thing. Tyrese, LaLa and comedian D-Nice make cameos.

Jon B-So Sexy

Where u been Jon B??? Apparently he has a new album titled "Hopeless Romantic" dropping on October, 28th. This is the expected first single. The remix will feature Paul Wall. I saw Jon perform this song at a club in North Carolina about 3 months ago and it sounded good. In the beginning of the performance I thought he was straining but as he got more and more in to his groove, he sounded a lot better. Another 90's R&B artist on the comeback trail. Let's see how this one does...

T.I. (Feat. Rihanna)-Live Your Life

This was the song performed last night at the VMA's. Seemed to receive a good reaction. Wouldn't be surprised if this one blew up. Soooo disappointed with the VMA's though. How do you treat your 25th anniversary like a High School talent show?! Terrible...

Ne-Yo-Yours

I like this record. The beat is nice. The piano is a good compliment to the track. Ne-yo shows why he's one of the best song writers of my time. He writes a lot of things that we can all relate to. (Click on post title for song)

I like this joint. Sounds "Timbaland/Neptunes-ish." Ryan Leslie is a producer/songwriter turned recording artist. Ryan's self-titled new album is scheduled to release October 21st....

Inside Man 2...?

According to Spike Lee, it seems inevitable. The award winning director says that both Denzel Washinton and Clive Owen are interested in a sequel.

Universal Studio's has given Lee the "green light" to begin work on the film. The original "Inside Man" earned Lee his biggest opening weekend and reeled in more than $175 million worldwide when it was released in the spring of 2006.

*Wow! Can't Wait! I loved the first one!

Brandy-Feels So Good

I worked with the GRAMMYS this past summer, and Harvey Mason Jr. from the production team "The Underdogs" (Babyface, Tyrese, Toni Braxton, Chris Brown, Aretha Franklin, Jennifer Hudson, Ruben Studdard, Brian McKnight, Charlie Wilson, ETC...) was asked who was the best vocalist he'd ever worked with in the studio. And this man said BRANDY..........not joking....

Brandy's new album "Human" is scheduled to release November 11th...Check out the smooth and sultry "Feels So Good"...(Click on post title for song)

Just Stand Up (LIVE) (Mariah, Mary J, Beyonce, Rhianna, Keyshia Cole, Ciara, Etc....)

15 successful female artists in music all got together in 1 room to perform for the "Stand Up To Cancer" program. Mariah Carey, Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, Rihanna, Fergie, Sheryl Crow, Miley Cyrus, Melissa Etheridge, Ashanti, Natasha Bedingfield, Keyshia Cole, Ciara, Leona Lewis, LeAnn Rimes and Carrie Underwood all hit the stage.

*I'm just surprised that all of these egos were able to co-exist on the same song! But I suppose great causes like this outweigh things like that. The ladies did a great job! But who shined the least? For me it's a toss up between Mariah's lack-luster performance, Fergie gettin her Reggae on towards the end, or Miley Cirus jackin Rhianna's singing style while standing right next to Rhianna. You be the judge...

The "What In The World" Moment of the Day...

In case you missed it, the NFL season is officially underway as of last night! Great for the fellas, probably not so great for most of the ladies. It is what it is. BUT whether you love football or not, this video will most DEFINITELY make you say "What In The World." RUNNING BACK Brandon Jacobs completely lays out DEFENSIVE BACK LaRon Landry. Gotta love this time of year!!!

Trey Songz-Gotta Beleive It

Trey over T-Pain's "Can't Beleive It." If I was Atlantic Records, I would be maaaaaaaaaad that Trey didn't get this track first. He sounds great on it. My favorite version of this song so far. "....I'll have u Hollerinnn...somewhere in Holland, I'll be givin you the D, then we fly across the sea and touch down on a island..." SO PIMP, I love it! (Click post title for song)

Newly Acquired Running Back for the Detroit Lions has bags stolen By TEAMMATE?!

Rudi Johnson was apparently given a rude welcome to his new team. Johnson who was acquired by the Lions on Monday met with Matt Millen, CEO of the Lions, to conclude negotiations on his contract and decided to leave his bags outside of Millen's office.

Once the discussion ended, and Johnson went to pick up his bags, they were mysteriously missing. The team decided to check the video tapes from the cameras OUTSIDE OF THE OFFICE. And apparently, the bags were taken by TATUM BELL, the man who was RELEASED after the signing of Johnson. When Bell was confronted he said he thought the bags belonged to someone else. *Riiiiiiiiiight*.

Bell took the bags to the house of a female counterpart. When the girl was reached, she stated that she hadn't spoken with Bell in months and he just randomly showed up and gave her the bags and said to hold on to them for a few. *ooooook*

Johnson has his bags and apparently won't press charges. MAN what a sore loser. If you just stepped ya game up, you wouldn't have to run around stealin folks bags! Speachless...

Usher Preps for Tour Catered 2 The Ladies...

In an interview earlier this week, Usher revealed plans for a tour he will call "One Night Stand," specifically for his female fans. Usher will hit 15 intimate venues in North America.

This will be his first tour since "The Truth Tour" following his mega-hit album "Confessions."

Dates have not been revealed yet, but they'll be here at WHAT'S THAT THERE? when they are released. Usher wants all the ladies to know that his "sex symbol status" will be on full display during the tour even though he is a family man now. Since some people question if he still has it. He plans to prove the haters wrong. (HI HATERS!)

Usher is also planning to release his own line of lingerie and men's undergarments to go along with the theme of the tour. Hmmmm....ok...

Also the next single off his album "Here I stand" will be "Trading Places" written and produced by The Dream. (Click the title of the post for the Mp3). Keep checking back, we'll have the video soon ;).

Ciara (Feat. T-Pain)-Go Girl

Nice Uptempo track. But NOOOO not you too Ci-Ci with the auto tune??! But she's not the greatest vocalist so it's a bit more understandable. And you know we're in a time where if you have T-Pain on the hook there's a 95% chance you'll get radio play. This is the first single off her new album titled "Fantasy Ride" due out November-ish...

Usher and the Superbowl?

Usher will be performing at the NFL season’s kickoff concert on Thursday in New York’s Columbus Circle. The concert will be held at 3PM just before the Washington Redskins and New York Giants game. The R&B singer will also be joined by Keith Urban and Natasha Bedingfield.

Like the 32 NFL teams, Usher will be aiming for a chance to get to the Superbowl.

“I don’t think it’s too early to consider it,” said Usher “Certainly being associated with the organization makes that a lot more possible. There have been conversations for a lot of years about me being part of a performance at a Super Bowl.”

He added: “I’m hoping that this leads, definitely, to that. This whole process is basically you scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours.”

The kickoff concert will be stream on NFL.com and Usher plans to perform “Here I Stand,” “Trading Places” and “What’s Your Name” with guest star will.i.am.
