TYRESE PUSHING FOR A RAP CAREER - FORMS ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY
Those gangsta movie roles must’ve really gotten to Tyrese because he’s planning on building a career in Hip Hop as “Black Ty”…
Actor/singer Tyrese Gibson has announced the formation of Headquarter Entertainment and HQ Pictures, a full service entertainment company that will help push Gibson’s new rap career as Black Ty.
Gibson is currently working on a new double album titled Alter Ego, due via J Records.
One album is devoted to R&B songs, while the other features Gibson’s rap persona, Black Ty. SOURCE
Lets see how this plays out. I personally liked the r&b singing Tyrese but after his first album…I lost a lil interest.
SOLANGE KNOWLES’ HUSBAND DANIEL SMITH GETS DRAFTED TO THE NFL
Congrats to Solange’s fine hubby, who got drafted to the Carolina Panthers.
The 23 yr. old wide-receiver was signed as an undrafted rookie free agent by Carolina earlier this month. He signed a three-year deal with the team and received a 5,000 signing bonus.
Daniel played Division I football at the University of Idaho. He married Solange in February of 2004 before the birth of their son, Daniel Jr. in October of 2004. Athletes also run through his family, his half bother is NBA player Cuttino Mobley (LA Clippers).
He seems to be a really low-key and humble dude tho. When asked if he his team mates know about his star-studded family:
“No, nobody knows about that kind of stuff, I don’t go around bragging,” he said with a laugh. “I’m just here to play football and do the best I can.” SOURCE
Well alrighty then cutie…

Who would brag about being married to Solange? That’s just corny.
As for Tyrese. What a joke. Nice name btw. How is an already well known artists gonna just come out with a new name? Why doesn’t he just stick with Tyrese?

Best Tyrese song ever…
“On Top of Me”….Off his I Wanna Go There album. Which was a classic.
Damn, you realize how much ass I got off just that one song? Within the first 39 seconds of the song, a chick will have her clothes completely off, ready to go.

man Solange husband is “Fine as Wine and I wish he was mine!”
I thought that he was already a football player cause in a article a while back he siad or rather his wifey siad that he is a football player.
Why the lies?

I think it’s how he words it if he were to brag. There are 2 possibilities here. For example…
“Yea, that’s right, I’m married to Solange Knowles”, is corny.
“Yea, that’s right, I’m fucking Beyonce’s sister”, is better.
Feel me?

I’m feeling Tyrese on the R&B! Not sure how he’ll do with rap but he is a talented brotha and SEXY! I liked him in Keyshia “No Soul”’s video! Anyway, glad to see Solange has a man that is doing something. Don’t wanna cast a dark cloud on the family name! Since there was speculation that ole Matthew had the “shotgun” ready to go! LOL! Glad to see tha brotha living up to the hype!

“Yea, that’s right, I’m fucking Beyonce’s sister”, is better.

Give Solange a break. She can’t help that she was born in the same family as Beyonce. The constant comparisons are so ridiculous. I hope he is bragging about being married to Solange…if she’s his WIFE and he loves her, damn. BUT WTF…Cuttino Mobley is his BROTHER I never heard that one!

He wasn’t a NCAA superstar and he didn’t get drafted. So that means his NFL salary resembles that of a Foot Locker sales associate. Players of his caliber don’t get hefty signing bonuses.

Tyrese’s career is slowly fading, he needs to focus on something he already made money off of, to bring it back, like modeling, singing, or movies. I don’t know what’s up with him, but, did anybody see his punked? He was pitching the dumbest movie in U.S. history, about a butler who gets ordered to serve a family in the hood, and he was trying to get a GIANT budget for it, saying he knew it was gonna be HUGE. The bad thing is, he was really serious, lmao.
Solange’s husband seems like a cool dude. I wish that whole family the best.

Please correct me if i’m wrong, The newsbit said that Daniel is 23 so its possible he will turn 24 this yr. Solange is goin on 20 next month so when she got pregnant she was only 17 and he was 21/22. wouldnt that b statutory rape. I wonder is that y she rushed to get married b4 she even turned 18. Anyways i’m glad both ty and daniel r doin big things.

Your right about not getting a huge signing bonus when you get picked up as a rookie free agent….most free agents that get picked up after the draft dont get a signing bonus….however his salary is not like that of a Foot Locker sales associate because even guys that get signed to the practice squad make at least $100,000 a year and they only practicing against the dudes that really play.

I guess asbury, got tire of all the hater and decided to lay low. First they picked at her picture and then she came back with the finger and telling them to go to H&LL and then she just disappear. This is my third post, but I have been reading the blog everyday since Jan 06 and I can say that I enjoyed all the comments and jokes. So from Homey to Homey, come back to Us. Newark, NJ!!!!!

Thanks Mizz Ruby for pointing out the last Asbury quotes. I personally had no issue with here, but
at the end of the day if you can’t take it, then don’t dish it out. There are a lot of folks on here who post various opinions about people and sometimes it is mean-spirited, even when it’s funny! If you’re going to do that, whether its directed at a celeb or another poster, you can’t be mad when it comes back at you!

You are soo right. He played for TSU. And he wasnt event a starter. So being Beyonces Brother In Law did do something for him. Take it from someone who goes to TSU. And also:
He may be fine, but he is a hoe. He was fucking a lot of other ppl while with Solange. So him being her husband is nothing to brag about, it is actuatlly sad. Tell me this, why dont you ever see him in any of those pictures, and why does she always have that baby by herself? The same reason why BRITNEY SPEARS DOES!

Yeah, I heard one of “Black Ty’s” singles a couple of months ago on V103, ATL. I wouldn’t have known it was him if they hadn’t said anything. Not only did he rapped, but he sang his own hooks. Anyway, Ryan Cameron (the DJ) and his crew trashed it, saying it sounded like it should have come out in the 90’s. They also thought it was lame that he was doing his own the vocals.
I’m looking forward to seeing what he can do.

Ok. listen. An undrafted free agent simply means that a teamn isn’t that impressed with a player to use an actually draft pick on that person. Most undrafted free agents are cut prior to the season’s start, but there are exceptions. I wish him luck, he transferred to IOWA becuase he wasn’t getting any playing time. Carolina has a good receiver core right now, including Steve Smith…. I hope he make the final 53 man roster….NFL contracts are not guaranteed, so anything can happen!!!!
Oh, and $5,000 ain’t shit compared to the millions of dollars other players get…
We should check around the last week in August to see if he makes the team!

TOO BAD BEYONCE CANT PICK EYE CANDY LIKE HER SISTER.
#57 I HEARD HE WAS A HOE TOO. I ALSO WAS WONDERING WHY HE HASN’T BEEN PICTURED WITH SOLANGE OR HIS BEAUTIFUL SON IN THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF. I HEARD THEY SEPERATED SHORTLY AFTER THEIR “SHOT GUN” MARRIAGE BECAUSE SHE WAS 17 AND PREGNANT AND THEY DIDN’T WANT SOLANGE TRYING TO GIVE THE KNOWLES’ FAMILY A BAD NAME.
OH WELL HOPEFULLY BETWEEN DANIEL AND SOLANGE MAYBE 1 OF THEM WILL MAKE SOMETHING OF THEMSELVES.

Tto brownsugar06: If she were 16 and he was 21, then it would be statutory rape in some states. At 17, unless there is a 10 year difference, it is not usually statutory rape.

Tyrese is one of my favourite R&B singers. I just wonder if he’s gonna pull the rap thing off, but I believe in him, so we’ll see. One of my favourite songs from him is the duet “If This World Were Mine” he did with Cocco from SWV. I think he has actually improved a lot with his acting too. I watched his latest flick Annapolis and thought he took the shine from the leading actor.

Tyrese needs to QUIT. Stick to singing Baby Boy. Oh and btw, Tyrese was taken to the ER last week out here in LA. His girlfriend brought him in and he was so messed up on drugs he couldn’t even give his information. He was eventually admitted but not before his gf acted a fool and refused to answer questions about why he was so drugged out. The made him stay overnight and he left without even being discharged.

Uhm too bad “some” women can’t look past how a dude looks! It’s called being vain and you might have a foine one in your hands but he might treat you like crap! You barely eva see them together, he might be too busy w/ other chicks. Who knows they prob got married to clean up her image after she got prego! You can’t tell me her parents wanted them married sooo young!
