Creating a large buzz for themselves in the Atlanta area (you can’t help but go somewhere here and see a Thunderkatz sticker on a lamp post, or random mailbox), the Thunderkatz are ready to take themselves nationwide, inking a new deal with Irv Gotti’s The Inc. Fusing hip hop, pop, funk, rock and dance music, the Thunderkatz are all about having fun and sending out a message. “Cupid Baby” is the first single and has garnered some radio play in a few pop markets.
But they look just like the Black Eyed Peas? you might say. Well, the difference is, the Thunderkatz are an actual band, complete with guitarist, bassist, keyboard player and drummer. And their live performance energy is crazy, garnering them many first place awards at nation music conferences. So, with all the comparisons, the Katz ask you not to judge a book by it’s cover. ‘Cause they’ve got plenty in store for you.
Check out the MySpace page to listen to more tracks from the Katz. I’m sure you’ll be hearing more from them very soon.

For this edition of Who Rock’d It Better we have tennis star Serena Williams and rapper/actress Eve wearing the same satin Yves Saint Laurent black jumpsuit to recent events. Big thanx to red carpet fashion awards for this great catch.
First up we have the lovely Serena Williams, she rock’d the jumpsuit to the Beckham’s Welcome to L.A. party last month. Then Miss Eve wore it this past weekend at the 2007 Teen Choice Awards. At least she thought about the kids and covered up that ankle bracelet. By the way ladies, those shoes are leopard-print YSL tribute pumps, I know some of you were asking. Who Rock’d It Better?
