“For the first time in VIBE’s 14-year history, a political figure graces our cover,” says editor-in-chief Danyel Smith in her Editor’s Letter. “It’s time.” In the exclusive interview — by American Book Award-winning author Jeff Chang — Senator Obama and those closest to him open up about personal sacrifice, his teen years in Hawai’i, the Don Imus backlash against hip hop, and being “black enough.” The two cover images were photographed exclusively for the September JUICE issue of VIBE by renowned lensman Terry Richardson.

I thought I saw her wear this dress before…Meagan Good is one celebrity who is always recycling goods, as she did last week when she wore this floral tight dress to the Beckham party. She first showed it off back in 2003 at the 1st Annual Vibe Awards…and she wore it in 2005, but lets not keep a count.
When did she rock it better? Though she looks a tad thicker now, she’s still working that dress til the last thread!

The song “Bed” has been heating up all over the radio. Everyone seems to love it. Produced by Los Da Mystro and written by the Dream (who we just did a feature on, as well as the man who brought to you Rihanna’s “Umbrella”). It turns out that Dream also recorded his own version of “Bed,” which I’m sure was probably a guide vocal that he’d sent to the label before J. Holiday recorded it. I’m a little torn, because to me, they sound similar, Dream’s version is just a little more raw, of course. I think my ear has just been trained to J. Holiday’s version. Dream has his own project out on the way, but you know we’ve got to ask the question: Who sang it better? It’s up to you.
J. Holiday - Bed (full) - REMOVED
The Dream - Bed (full) - download / alternate
Make sure you support J. Holiday’s new album, Back of My Lac, due out October 2nd, and check our exclusive interview with him. Also, don’t forget to check out The Dream on MySpace and look for more heat coming from his way.

According to Entertainment Tonight, EDDIE MURPHY and his girlfriend of 10 months, TRACEY EDMONDS, 40, are engaged. Oh lawd! Here we fucking go again.
According to OK! magazine, the 46-year-old Murphy proposed on July 25 with a “massive,” roughly 8-carat CARTIER yellow diamond engagement ring.
A friend of the couple says, “They’re very adorable together, very happy,” adding that they plan to tie the knot before the end of the year with a private wedding: “something low-key and romantic.”
As we all know both of them come from failed marriages. Tracey was married to singer KENNETH “BABYFACE” EDMONDS for 13 years before they split and Eddie was married to NICOLE MITCHELL for 12 years before they split. Both have children from their previous marriages, and Eddie had a child with singer Melanie “MEL B” Brown. Word is he hasn’t seen the baby yet. How grand.
