CL’S BIG IN ’06 SONG LIST!

You either love them, or what you hate them, but these are some of the most memorable songs (or artists) for ’06. These are the songs that you couldn’t turn on the radio without hearing. From artist comeback songs, to songs that just were bumped in cars and clubs alike all day, every day. There was a lot of music to come out in ’06, but this is just a look at some of the songs that we just couldn’t seem to stay away from, no matter how good or bad they were!

CASSIE – ME & U (DOWNLOAD)

She pretty much came out of nowhere, and blew up over night on MySpace. No matter how much we hate her, and how little talent she has, Cassie had the #1 song in the country and everyone was bobbing their head to the Ryan Leslie-produced single. Cassie’s album was released during the summer and debuted at #1 on the Billboard charts, proving that it doesn’t take talent to have a #1 album. Let’s see if she can twerk it out the second time around.


GNARLS BARKLEY – CRAZY (DOWNLOAD)

Cee-Lo Green and DJ Danger Mouse became the crazy imaginaries behind the vivid images and oddball sounds of the enigma that is Gnarls Barkley. They crossed boundaries and reached a huge audience with the single “Crazy” and it spread like wildfire. Even if you don’t know the group, you know the song. With huge success in the United States, and overseas, Gnarls Barkley and their album “St. Elsewhere” were definitely big in ’06.

CL’S TOP 15 ‘HOT ASS MESSES’ OF 2006

Since there was some confusion about the last list I posted, I wanted to make it clear that these lists were compiled after I went through every CL post of the year. This isn’t a list of who is the hottest mess, because they all are. It’s a list to show who yall commented on the most, or who we posted about the most. So if you don’t like the list that’s your damn problem.

Anyway, CL Posts STAY flooded with HOT ASS MESSES, so you know this is going to be crazy as hell! I actually had fun putting this one together….

#1: REMY MA

Remy Ma won CL’s 1st HAM of the month title, so it comes to no surprise that she tops the year end list. Who could forget the infamous butt shorts picture (dont’ she look rank?) and my Rick James comparison? I have a feeling Remy is going to top next year’s list too.

‘THE JEFFERSONS’ ACTOR & CO-CREATOR OF ‘GOOD TIMES’ MIKE EVANS DIES AT 57

mevas.jpgActor Mike Evans, best known as Lionel Jefferson in the TV comedy series “All in the Family” and “The Jeffersons,” has died. He was 57.

Evans died of throat cancer Dec. 14 at his mother’s home in Twentynine Palms, said his niece, Chrystal Evans.

Evans, along with Eric Monte, also created and wrote for “Good Times,” one of the first TV comedy series that featured a primarily black cast.

Evans kept the role of Lionel when “The Jeffersons” launched in 1975. The hit show was a spinoff featuring bigoted Archie Bunker’s black neighbours in Queens who “move on up to the East Side” of Manhattan.

Evans was replaced by Damon Evans (no relation) for four years, then he returned to the series from 1979 to 1981.

————————
That’s the only picture I could find of him. It was taken back in 1972 on the set of “All in the Family.”

Rest in Peace..
