GOOD GIRL GONE BAD!

Monday, May 21, 2007 |

Little Miss Sunshine, Robyn Rihanna Fenty, known more popularly as Rihanna has put out 3 albums in the past 3 years. With all the popularity and the success she has garnered from her single featuring her labelmate and president, Jay-Z entitled “Umbrella,” Rihanna has solidified herself as a crossover pop artist. She’s known throughout the world and has really put her foot forward into proving that she’s got staying power. And as I’ve predicted, Rihanna has for the most part, fully dropped the dancehall influence in her music, all but one and a half tracks. Although “Good Girl Gone Bad” is far from flawless, it has shown that Rihanna is trying to touch some different aspects of different kinds of music, so that she doesn’t have to be stuck in the typical R&B box. She pulls from a lot of different sounds to make an album that, like I said, is not perfect, but it’s consistent.

“Good Girl Gone Bad” hits shelves June 5th, so if you’re digging what you’ve heard so far, make sure you go out and cop the album.

BLIND ITEM: CELEB NOT OVER HER EX

Monday, May 21, 2007 |

Despite this famous woman having a new boyfriend she still can’t seem to get over her ex. She is seriously still hung up on her ex-boyfriend. It’s as if her ex-boyfriend continues to have a spell on her. Sadly, she would drop her new boyfriend quickly if her ex summoned her back. When she’s with friends, she talks non-stop about her ex and hardly mentions her current man.

To make matters worse, she’s been complaining to girlfriends that she’s really bothered by her ex-boyfriend’s current relationship and wonders why he couldn’t be in love with her the way he seems to be in love with his current girlfriend. She’s seething with jealousy and envy.

NOTE: All blind items are written by Myra Panache or her staff. No, I do not know what the answer is, after all it is called a Blind Item. These items are posted for entertainment reasons. Please contact Myra if you have any questions. Thank you.

WHAT?! NEW MUSIC FROM LAURYN HILL?!

Friday, May 18, 2007 |

We thought that The Fugees were coming out with another album. We thought that Lauryn Hill herself was coming out with another studio album, after those picture swarming all over the internet of her on a “video shoot” surfaced. But just a single, and nothing else came of all of that. Then all of those performances, rumors and comparisons with Amy Winehouse, and people were just begging for Lauryn to come back on the scene. And you’ve got your wish. Although this isn’t typical “Miseducation” Lauryn, I’m glad that she is doing something different. It sounds like she’s finally through with whatever it was she was going through and is ready to offer up her fans what they’ve been waiting on for so long.

Lauryn Hill - Lose Myself (full) - download / alternate **UPDATED LINKS**

NOTE: My apologies about the slowed down version of the song. For some reason, supload.com does that when you upload certain songs - haven’t figured out why. I updated the links with the real version of the song.
